Being Centered

When you meet a being who is centered, you always know it, you can always feel a kind of calm emanation, it always touches you in the place where you feel calm, but: you can't hustle it, you can't make-believe you're calm when you're not. It never works, everybody knows, you know, it's horrible. You must center, find that place inside yourself, and: whatever your dance is, you're doing from that place, always right in there, right in your hridayum.

Ram Dass
