Satsang With Mooji

"Don't even identify with 'I'. See if you can find what I is. And the one who is searching to find the I, can that one be found? The enquiry undresses you from the layers that we have put around our being to make us appear presentable, acceptable, plausible. Have some courage, throw everything into the fire and let these questions burn all the things inside you that are not true." A spontaneous Satsang recorded at Monte Sahaja in Portugal

"The one who surrenders and lets go, the one who is a servant of the universe, without arrogance, this one, is taken care of by life itself. The sun takes care of him, the rain takes care of him, the wind takes care of him, the earth takes care of him, the travellers take care of him - everything takes care of him. Everything takes care of You. God takes care of everything. The real beauty is when you come to see that this is so." A Spontaneous Satsang recorded at Monte Sahaja

"Every sentence is a door going back into the same room. A room you never leave, except by imagination." A Spontaneous Satsang recorded at Monte Sahaja

"You need the ego to transcend the ego — it has its role to bite you, so you don't go to sleep. Going to sleep means going back into the person. As long as you identify with your mind, it seems as though the ego is an enemy to the ego, but as soon as you realise that you are consciousness, the ego will cease being your enemy and dissolve at your feet. Don’t let go of this understanding. Blessed we are for receiving this guidance." A Spontaneous Satsang recorded in Zmar

"You want to be the perfection but how would you know it was perfect if you didn't taste imperfection? How would you know anything if you don't know the opposite? All this bittersweet ups and downs and toughness gives you spiritual grit and maturity. Allow what is being shared to guide the attention and the mind back into the source. To recognise the source and be one with the source - that's all that is happening, and a whole forest of noise is being burnt. I could say trillions of things about the Self but if I really had to I would say, 'Say yes and plunge inside the ocean of your own being and don't come back up as a person.'" A spontaneous Satsang recorded at Monte Sahaja in Portugal

In this conversation, Mooji answers some uncommon questions, such as: 'Is there such a thing as a healthy ego? I know we are ultimately One, but in what way are we different - beyond the body? Does duality go beyond the physical world? Where do memories stay? Is there a memory of the Self? Do we have to go through Self-realization in every life?' Each of these queries is met and answered in depth, and in closing, Mooji reminds the questioner that all of this talk is just passing time - in a pure way. No concept is worth keeping. The highest joy of the liberated ones is to contemplate the Self. This knowledge is like 'Spiritual Nutella' - we enjoy spreading the Nutella of the Supreme; but the best knowledge is that which reflects the Self. A spontaneous Satsang over Skype

This is a talk that happened in Monte Sahaja one evening, after watching a talent show on TV. Sri Mooji points out to us how watching TV can be one of many great ways of facing the cultural conditioning that is still being held in the being-ness. He also reminds us that failure and crashing in life can be very powerful. When our plans crash, something becomes clear and there is no longer space for the play of any imagined projections. “For a Sadhaka - someone who is searching for the Truth and who has traveled inside towards that discovery - everything becomes a mirror.” A Spontaneous Satsang recorded at Monte Sahaja

"You come to that place which can feel to be infinite and yet it can feel to be tiny as an atom. It is too sweet to discover this cause; you have no where to go but everywhere! What I am prevades everything; absolutely, timelessly effortlessly. At a certain point, nothing can infringe upon or molest your peace for this joy - this singing joy. Who knows that joy that arises when the question is asked: who am I or where am I, and nothing is found." A spontaneous Satsang recorded at Monte Sahaja in Portugal

"It is not enough to study, to understand spiritual scriptures and to accumulate knowledge. You need to be ready to die for it because it is worth every moment. The supreme wants you to taste the majesty of your own transcending. You are the light of God, the very soul of the Universe." A Spontaneous Satsang recorded at Monte Sahaja

"Behind every perception or experience, something says ‘I’. I perceive this, I experience this, I understand this. What is this I? Can the I who perceives and understands, can it be understood, can it be perceived? Does it have a shape or a quality, is it a man or a woman, does it have a religion, does it have a standpoint? Can the I that sees everything be an object? When you come to this part of the enquiry your answer cannot be philosophical, it cannot be mental, it must turn now into experience. You and your answer have to be one." A Spontaneous Satsang recorded at Monte Sahaja

"Simply be yourself... not with a program or an itinerary". A spontaneous Satsang recorded in London

"The best use of the mind is not to try to work things out; better just keep the mind in a state of silence, neutrality, emptiness. You don't have to work things out, just understand your true place and things will work themselves out. The choice really is that you can experience your existence and even the heavenly realms from a personal perspective or impersonally. If you choose only the paradigm of a person, your view will always be limited, always be changeful. There will come a time when very deep and very intense emotions, feelings and thoughts can come and you still see them as phenomena, you can see that they are just like clouds passing." A Spontaneous Satsang recorded at Monte Sahaja

"There is no period or age of the human life that could be better spent than in the spirit of God. The best childhood is the childhood spent being educated in the Holy Spirit. The best adult life is the one growing and evolving inside the spirit of consciousness. The greatest old age is the one lived in the spirit of God. Every part of a person's life, right from childhood until the very last breath is best lived aware of God, aware of Truth." A Spontaneous Satsang recorded at Monte Sahaja

"When you discover the Here which is beyond geography and the Now which is beyond time, then you are reintroduced to your own freedom. You become so empty that you can accommodate the presence of God." A Spontaneous Satsang recorded at Monte Sahaja

"We are cherishing memories and ideas about life that were not even real at that time. Don't hold on to what is past. There might be some sadness or pain but some pain has to be felt to grow and outgrow old limitations. Bear this for the moment, it will pass. Be grateful that grace has picked you up and allow yourself to be emptied out. This is what this life is for." A Spontaneous Satsang recorded at Monte Sahaja

"Now is the perfect time to meet God. It doesn’t take time to meet that which you can never separate from – Your own Self." In this talk Mooji invites you into a powerful investigation of Truth. Instead of getting pulled into tendencies of identifying with the egoic mind, inquire into your thoughts and habits. Change focus and perceive from a truer space – from and as consciousness. A Spontaneous Satsang recorded at Monte Sahaja

"Nothing stops you from finding the Truth. But if you think it does, it will feel like it. Don’t waste too much time cleaning your little issues and problems, focus on the Self. Stay as the Self and if the Self wishes to clean the dynamic expression, it will do it, you don’t have to worry for that." A Spontaneous Satsang recorded in Rishikesh

"Don’t miss your chance for freedom. Don’t be complacent. There has to be some vigilance not to buy into the distractions of the mind." A Spontaneous Satsang recorded at Monte Sahaja

In this talk Mooji guides us, as always, in the most direct way to the final recognition of our true nature. Once one realizes in the heart that 'I am not the one looking towards the source, but I am the one looking at the sense of myself searching for the source', the journey is over. The seeker is born, and it is in time, but its source is not born. A Spontaneous Satsang recorded at Monte Sahaja

"To know anything apart from your self is a limitation. You venerate objective knowledge; know so many things about so many subjects. But do you know the knower? Who is the knower of these things? When you are empty, you can be nothing, and when you are nothing you begin to taste the immensity of the divine. What is this life for? What is this body for? The highest purpose of this life is to taste, to meet and to be the immensity of the divine. That's what this life is for." A Spontaneous Satsang recorded at Monte Sahaja
