Satsang with Mooji

Mooji has a clear and confirming conversation with some friends in which he touches on various topics and aspects of Self-inquiry. In this first part, he speaks about belief, the oscillating attention and mistaken identification of the Self with the body mind as the volatile combination that leads to delusion and suffering. He also speaks generally about relationships and the fear of loneliness, t...

In this Satsang, Mooji takes out his sword and chops everything that is not true. Mooji says, "Freedom is not for you. Freedom is from you. Things keep coming up [for the mind] because there is somebody that they come up for. It's not about things. It's about you." 28 September 2010

In this Satsang, Mooji takes out his sword and chops everything that is not true. Mooji reminds us: "You exist before remembering and forgetting of yourself". 28 September 2010

In this Satsang, Mooji takes out his sword and chops everything that is not true. Mooji throws everything away. Concern about the breath, yoga, scriptures, thoughts of becoming free... everything is thrown out. Nothing is valid now, Mooji says. It is all past; it doesn't exist. 28 September 2010

"Just by keeping your attention on Being, your sense of weight will vanish. There's an old itch to go back to the mind to play, but this can simply be observed. Mooji says that only if we have the habit of plunging into the objects of perception, then the waters of the Being get disturbed; but even disturbance is also just an idea, from the position of Being. The simplest and most powerful is to j...

"In Satsang you have the chance, the invitation to stop identifying. Your 'I Am' is the most precious thing in the world. Don’t give it to anything, don’t combine it with anything. Keep it pure and un-associated and be in the living dynamic remembrance of that. Being one with it, you overcome everything, you transcend the mind. There is nothing more valuable, beyond value even, priceless, than the...

This interview with Mooji about Traditional Advaita and Neo-Advaita is a response to a recent podcast, 'Advaita and Neo-Advaita Pros and Cons'. Mooji speaks more in depth about each of these paths, not dismissing either movement but rather pointing out the common mistakes which are made by both. Somewhere between the two movements – the freshness of the Neo-Advaita, along with the focus, depth, an...

"The inner harmony is natural and doesn't have to be maintained by human being, it simply is. When it is discovered, this harmony is spontaneously informing every aspect of your impression. You are not doing anything and one sees how exquisite and simple existence is." A spontaneous Satsang recorded in Monte Sahaja 18 November 2011

Prompted by questions from those who have gathered around, Mooji touches on many concepts here - the ego, the three gunas, the three states, and also tells some stories from the times of Jesus as well as the unorthodox Lama named Drukpa Kunley. Mooji then moves the attention back to the subject - the one who is witnessing all these things. Mooji says, "Find out who you are and so many things are g...

"You cannot travel to your real place because actually you are already there. The journey is complete if you remove this misunderstanding. The heart is our real Being." A spontaneous Satsang recorded in Tiruvannamalai, India 23 January 2012

In speaking about the inquiry with one friend, Mooji encourages him to keep looking and looking (inquiring) until the mind gets established in real understanding. If looking just happens once and one sees that one is not any image, object, or person that is suffering, it may not be enough to establish one's mind in the truth. Mooji explains that the enquiry really works at the Heart level, not jus...

This a contemplation on freedom. If you would have the freedom to do what you want, to say whatever you want to anybody, to be completely fearless, would that be the true freedom? Or is there anything higher? Perhaps the sense of a personal entity making choices in life seemingly eclipses the real freedom. It does not matter what you do; it is infused with Beingness. Realize that everything is hap...

"Everything that is brought to you through the senses or the mind is bound by time. All experiences belong to time and time will devour everything – except what you really are – it cannot reach that. You have to find that which time cannot touch. This is the ultimate discovery in this universe." A Spontaneous Satsang recorded at Monte Sahaja 29 April 2014

"That undisturbed silence, that space within which all things occur, that is Bhagavan. Bhagavan is the unmoving silence and space. That thing which remains unaffected, unalterable, before, during and after all movements in Consciousness — even when Consciousness goes out, It remains unaffected. It alone knows Itself, and no imagination is required. Even the mind that strives to know It is perceive...

This beautiful talk happened in the temple at Monte Sahaja. Sri Mooji is pointing out that there is nothing wrong with experiencing; it is fine to enjoy your life. As you become more mature inwardly, you will start more and more to feel the joy arising from yourself and your own being. In fact all the time you are enjoying your being, but you don't know it. You think it is a certain thing that giv...

"[Awareness] is the most perfect, because it's untouchable. There's no effort in it, there's no separation in it, there's no unity in it, there's no Satsang in it, there's no Master in it, there's no disciple in it, there's no scripture in it, there's no time, there's no duration, there's no enlightenment in it; it is the ever perfect. That's what we are." A Spontaneous Satsang recorded in a park...

The physical notion of life - biological functioning and personality, is the most shallow part of our experience, and yet so much of our focus is there. Satsang introduces us to our cosmic unity, our identity with the God Self. Then the fear is going. Fear is for the person, not for the Self. A Spontaneous Satsang recorded at Monte Sahaja

One man comes to Mooji with a strong determination to know the Truth. He has been experiencing a melting away of the ego, which is being replaced with a feeling of presence. But there are moments, he says, when he feels very uncomfortable when the mind brings up the 'person'. Mooji says to use the mind as way to strengthen the resolve to stay as the Self; it's actually a call for Self-focusing whe...

"Why should you be special? Why should life favor you particularly? You don’t realize that you can be beautifully happy being nothing at all. Why do you want to be better than everybody else? Why don’t you just enjoy?" A Spontaneous Satsang recorded at Monte Sahaja

"We can have a leprosy — a mental leprosy — and you don't have to go and take all these medicines for it. Just the Grace — the touch of the Supreme, of the God, or even the Guru's Grace removes that leprosy." A spontaneous Satsang recorded in London

This is a powerful and poignant talk in which Mooji so clearly reflects, through his words and presence, that unchanging awareness that we are. He explains that the reason why awareness seems to be 'hidden' from itself is because it started to go out — it started to proceed and identify with its projections. The grossest state of the awareness in the human form is to believe it is a human being an...

This talk begins with one seeker sharing his insight that all beings have the same heart, the same core. Mooji responds by saying that you can only 'see' that from the core itself. You cannot be looking 'at' the core; if you were, with what identity would you be looking? It is more of an intuitive feeling, that we are the same in essence. When the seeker then begins to speak about some phenomenon...

"Never give up" is a catch-phrase often heard but rarely questioned among spiritual seekers. What does it really mean? Never give up what? One questioner feels she should never give up her search for the real truth, but on the other hand, she feels she has to give up or else she will always be struggling. Mooji then asks her if she thinks she should "never give up" — even if she discovers the trut...

"One of the highest expressions of the being — one of the highest joys of the being — is in contemplating itself beyond the dualistic representations and finding that there is only the space of the being, and yet there is no fear of the apparent becoming. It's the play; it's the joy; it's the meal of the absolute — when it plays as presence." A spontaneous Skype Satsang recorded in London

"Recognise that the universe is not managed by human beings, but by the supreme Being. Just as nature is innocent, we return again to innocence. Never feel that the Self is far away, actually there is no distance." A spontaneous Satsang recorded at Monte Sahaja in Portugal
