Let These Questions Undo You
December 20, 2018 13:30 - 59 minutes - 109 MBThe power of Satsang is to remove you — to remove the you which is unstable; the idea of Self... to move it out of the seat of Being. The beauty of this Satsang is in the questions that very strongly point us back to our own Self. Does the knower of the body have to be in the body to know the body? Without the body, who are we? Where are you? Mooji says, "Say to these questions, 'Please, go to the place where you are meant to go in me, and undo me there.' These questions are far more import...
Learn To Say Thank You
December 20, 2018 13:27 - 38 minutes - 70 MB"For a human being appreciation is a very powerful thing, because it is part of the way in which the consciousness refines itself and becomes more humble, more pliable and more receptive. At first you may not think that you have anything to say thank you for but as you start you will slowly begin to feel an immense gratitude for even the sense of being, for life, for existence. Thank you is the greatest mantra." A Spontaneous Satsang recorded at Monte Sahaja
The Joy and Freedom of Being (Part 3)
December 10, 2018 14:15 - 30 minutes - 21.4 MBThe conclusions of this talk, which is much more than an interview. It is a beautiful Satsang. An interview recorded by Here Now TV; This interview is presented in 3-parts. 1 April 2010
The Joy and Freedom of Being (Part 2)
December 10, 2018 14:14 - 25 minutes - 17.5 MBWhat we must be clear about is to find out, "Do thoughts have independent power?" Because if they have independent power, then all of us would suffer from the same thought. Some thought means nothing to me, but would send you to hospital! So it is not in the thought itself, but in the amount of belief that is invested in that thought. An interview recorded by Here Now TV; This interview is presented in 3-parts. 1 April 2010
The Joy and Freedom of Being (Part 1)
December 10, 2018 14:14 - 33 minutes - 23.4 MBWhat is aware of the obscuring of truth? Can that which is observing be recognized? The questioner asks penetrating and salient questions, making this a particularly lively interview. An interview recorded by Here Now TV; This interview is presented in 3-parts. 1 April 2010
Advaita And Neo-Advaita Pros And Cons
December 10, 2018 12:32 - 21 minutes - 29 MBMooji points out the pros and cons of two paths: Neo-Advaita and traditional Advaita. Neo-Advaita says, "There is nothing to do and nothing to practice because you are already This." Mooji says that this is true when you realize the Self, but not before. In Neo-Advaita, the intellectual understanding is taken to be the realization of the Self, but it is not. However, what the Neo-Advaitists are saying still brings a refreshing change to the traditional Advaitists scene, who tend to take the...
The Author Of Existence
December 10, 2018 12:29 - 54 minutes - 101 MB"Be in the spirit of Truth and any words you speak are in alignment with that spirit." ~ Mooji Asked about the importance of spiritual education and training for children, Mooji reminds us that the human being is an expression of consciousness and not the controller of consciousness. If the incentive for change is not coming from an awakened heart, it is just another way to keep our projections going. No one can help the world if he does not have peace and love inside his own heart. Our hi...
Only Here I Want To Be
December 10, 2018 12:27 - 51 minutes - 94 MBIn this beautiful talk Mooji explains the workings of the mind and the power of being empty. A Spontaneous Satsang recorded in London 11 November 2013
You Are Very Well Without You
December 10, 2018 12:25 - 27 minutes - 51 MB"When the power of Grace is felt, the person with its problems and its desires is not there. That's why everything feels so perfect; that's why you feel so happy and peaceful. You are very well without you." A Spontaneous Satsang recorded in London 20 November 2013
Become Empty
December 10, 2018 12:23 - 45 minutes - 84.2 MB"Truth is not sealed inside words or concepts. You cannot understand this world; you cannot understand yourself in that way. Not conceptually. You cannot figure out anything. The trouble is, you think you can. When the mind, the identity is again united into the Self there is spontaneous knowledge, intuitive knowledge which is not in any textbook. It's just a kind of knowingness, an understanding, a wisdom, an intuition, a sensing that doesn't really require words. It is enough. For real und...
Even Your Breath Is Love
December 10, 2018 12:20 - 41 minutes - 75.7 MB"The body eats raw food - food that can decay, just like the body decays. The mind eats thought, emotion. The spirit eats bliss, contemplation. The supreme does not eat; It cannot be eaten. You have to be a bit crazy to resonate with Truth, meaning to not set borders for yourself. What a paradox that you have got to give everything up to find everything." A Spontaneous Satsang recorded at Monte Sahaja 30 December 2012
Kissed From Within
December 10, 2018 12:18 - 34 minutes - 64 MB"There has to be something in life that makes you throw everything away for it, something that gives you the incentive and the motive to leave behind your history." A Spontaneous Satsang recorded at Monte Sahaja 16 April 2014
No Vasana for the Being
December 10, 2018 12:15 - 12 minutes - 18 MB"Nothing actually stops you from being what you are except the belief in your own thoughts... what Is, Is, without requiring perfecting". Mooji addresses common misconceptions about awakening
The One Who Is Always Here
December 10, 2018 12:03 - 44 minutes - 40.5 MB"'I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life' — Jesus said this. A human being has the potential to reach that level of insight in order to say these words without shame, without pretense that: 'I Am That—I am the way,' there isn't a way apart from me except as a projection. I am that way, I am that Truth. I am not the one you are going to find and keep. I am the One who is always here. And I am the Life -- I am not someone living life; I am Life itself. What a realization!" A spontaneous Satsa...
Don't Identify With Anything
December 10, 2018 11:59 - 18 minutes - 34.8 MB"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
Let Me Belong To Only You
December 05, 2018 16:59 - 13 minutes - 19.4 MB"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
The Sage's Mind Is Dead And Fully Alive
December 05, 2018 16:57 - 29 minutes - 53.9 MB"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
Blessed Are You
December 05, 2018 16:53 - 31 minutes - 28.8 MB"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
Pure Perfect Being
December 05, 2018 16:50 - 23 minutes - 43.6 MB"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 thing...
Spiritual Nutella
December 05, 2018 16:48 - 48 minutes - 88.6 MBIn 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...
A Life Called Wise
December 05, 2018 16:46 - 16 minutes - 22.7 MBThis 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 a...
Dancing On The Surface Of Formlessness
December 05, 2018 16:43 - 22 minutes - 41.9 MB"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 Sah...
You Are The Light Of God
December 05, 2018 16:25 - 59 minutes - 109 MB"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
You Must Be The Answer
December 05, 2018 16:23 - 59 minutes - 110 MB"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 ex...
THE REAL FACEBOOK
December 05, 2018 16:21 - 42 minutes - 39.3 MB"Simply be yourself... not with a program or an itinerary". A spontaneous Satsang recorded in London
Passing Clouds
December 05, 2018 16:18 - 53 minutes - 98.7 MB"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 wh...
Evolving In The Spirit Of Consciousness
December 05, 2018 16:15 - 24 minutes - 22.2 MB"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
Trust And Remain As The Child On The Lap Of God
December 05, 2018 16:12 - 1 hour - 137 MB"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
The Holiness Of Being
December 05, 2018 15:45 - 56 minutes - 103 MB"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
Podcast: Now Is The Perfect Time To Meet God
December 05, 2018 15:10 - 20 minutes - 18.6 MB"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
The Living Sadhana
December 05, 2018 15:06 - 27 minutes - 50.9 MB"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 Be Complacent
December 05, 2018 14:30 - 9 minutes - 12.9 MB"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
The Timeless Source
December 05, 2018 14:27 - 11 minutes - 21.4 MBIn 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
Don't Close Your Mind
December 05, 2018 14:25 - 1 hour - 164 MB"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...
You Can Only BE Truth
December 05, 2018 14:20 - 30 minutes - 56.2 MB"You have to appreciate and embrace and swallow these instructions so they become you. Don't keep it in the head only and say: 'Yes I agree'. You cannot agree with Truth, you cannot even believe in Truth, you can only Be Truth." A spontaneous Satsang recorded at Monte Sahaja in Portugal
Nobody Can Disappoint God
December 05, 2018 14:17 - 22 minutes - 31.4 MBIn this talk Mooji shares his views about commitment in intimate relationships, faithfulness and love. "Is it possible to keep your word? How can anyone make the promise, 'I will love you forever?' At the most it can be a declaration of the love that you feel right now. Many people don't have the spiritual maturity to be in one relationship forever. There is not a set standard for how a relationship should be; some relationships have a very deep potency — there is a depth of experience and a...
You Are The Awareness, Don't Overlook This!
December 05, 2018 14:13 - 17 minutes - 31.3 MB"To the witness of the thing that is playing, we pay no attention. We have a strong desire to have some particular outcome happen, like these feelings should stop, they should become beautiful, I should be happy again, etc. No one introduces you to these things; it is not felt to be important even. If you look in the direction of the events that are happening, then you'll panic. Be the witness; when this is heard, immediately your inner climate changes. If you go again to the mind, the vi...
Giggle Of The Universe
December 05, 2018 14:11 - 21 minutes - 39.8 MB"We are infinitely broader than all answers can be, but the minute you hold on to something, you start to protect it. Therefore when I say: You have to be the cow that jumped over the moon, you have to jump over the mind. The whole human thing does not work – it has never worked. It only works when it connects up with the God power, with the heart – then it becomes something beautiful. Otherwise we are like an unstruck match. Sitting in a box in a damp house. But once lit, once struck, it ca...
Get Off That Horse
December 05, 2018 14:07 - 32 minutes - 45.1 MBA spontaneous Satsang recorded in Portugal The cultural conditioning can be very limiting, almost a kind of prison. Mooji says, "Don't reject your culture, just go beyond it - You are earlier than that." Sometimes we are devoted to religions, beliefs and cultures which are suffocating for us; some pride is there and we won't let go of it. The Satsang is here to push us back to the place earlier than human identity. The One here has no race, culture or parents. This is the original place. K...
The Grace Of Being
December 05, 2018 14:05 - 33 minutes - 61.6 MB"Depending on how much we are still functioning with a strength of belief in our person and our personal life, it will appear to be that that life is predominating. That's the life 'I' have to deal with. As the attention is dropping again into its Source - into the Heart - the focus on the terrestrial existence becomes softer and softer and thinner and thinner, and is replaced by the sense of Being which is not calculating; it is felt as presence and joy." A spontaneous Skype Satsang recorde...
Pure Stillness
December 05, 2018 13:18 - 12 minutes - 22.9 MBA spontaneous Satsang recorded in Portugal "The Self is like light - it has no colour. The Beingess and the body is like a prism and when the light hits this prism, all the colours come out. These colours are what you call your mind and the world. The substratum of this colourful existence is always here - this unimaginable light." Music: Yeghish Manukian - Duduk, track 5
Go For Gold
December 05, 2018 13:16 - 30 minutes - 55.6 MBSpontaneous Satsang recorded at Monte Sahaja "If this life was all about momentary pleasures and shallow entertainment, we would be the weakest species on the planet. It seems that the highest human attainment is to transcend the egoic influence of the mind; to transcend the hypnosis of conditioning, the ignorance and the arrogance. Don't set your goal too low—go for gold! This is intelligent living. Hold your ground in the Self and let everything happen." Music: By Pratah Smaranam, ("Mor...
Crashing Is Grace
December 05, 2018 13:12 - 24 minutes - 44.5 MBA spontaneous Satsang recorded in Portugal "The life that we project from a personal perspective has to crash at some point; that is grace. Because if it doesn't crash, you start to believe it is true. When it crashes, your aspiration for Truth can broaden and go deeper. So what is the way to transcend this mind that functions as an obstacle? Find out who the mind attacks. It can only be the self-image that is attacked; the idea you have of what you are is attacked." Music: Amma Sangha ("...
Buddha-I Or Not?
December 05, 2018 13:10 - 48 minutes - 88 MBA spontaneous Satsang recorded in Portugal Mooji oftens asks, "As who are you speaking? As what are you speaking? Who sees the power of such a question?" What may come out of introspections like this is a kind of deconstruction of a lot of conceptual skyscrapers. You can feel a space of being rather than the noise of our identity and projections. Don't get your notebook out! Just let the vibration of the words do their thing, and listen in inner neutrality. Music: By Joy ("Hymns and Songs...
That Purity
December 05, 2018 13:07 - 35 minutes - 64.1 MBA spontaneous Satsang recorded in Portugal "The Self, which is the most pure, has no distance. There is no gap except the distance of a concept, the distance of thought. But really, we are That - the Self. Just the belief that we are not the Self brings in the feeling of separation. So the Self is our perfect place. Only there can we leave the world alone, leave ourselves alone. There is perceiving in this place but there is no effort, no intention, no management, no faith or hope. These t...
No Portrait Is You
December 05, 2018 13:04 - 12 minutes - 22.5 MBA spontaneous Satsang recorded at Monte Sahaja "What we should really drink in is that the real cannot die; what is true cannot come to an end; what is timeless cannot be cut. Therefore – how pressing it is to find the Truth while we have the chance. The waking state is the perfect vehicle, the perfect mirror that the timeless comes again to recognize itself."
True Sadhana
December 05, 2018 13:02 - 9 minutes - 16.9 MBA spontaneous Satsang recorded in Portugal "After recognizing the Truth of who you are, the old way of thinking will try to come in and create doubt in you, the Beingness. At a stage of awakening you will have your 40 days and 40 nights in the wilderness; forces will come and cause division and insecurity, but you have every power to transcend this. Mind can only function by distraction, by the seeds of guilt or accusation. You just hold your ground. Somehow, you catch your Self from inside...
In The Lap Of God
December 05, 2018 12:37 - 13 minutes - 24.4 MBRecorded at the intensive in Krakow, Poland, August 2011 "After recognizing the Truth of who you are, the old way of thinking will try to come in and create doubt in you, the beingness. At a stage of awakening you will have your 40 days and 40 nights in the wilderness; forces will come and cause division and insecurity, but you have every power to transcend this. Mind can only function by distraction, by the seeds of guilt or accusation. You just hold your ground. Somehow, you catch your Se...
Let This Be The Last Meal
December 05, 2018 12:35 - 32 minutes - 30.1 MBA spontaneous Satsang recorded in Portugal "Whatever food you eat, you're going to be hungry again." In response to these words from Mooji, a determined seeker says, "Then let this be the last meal." Letting this be the last meal means to accept that you are just here - no longer running after meals (desires) that you will always be hungry for. "From now on, I am going to do this!" - Can you make such a promise that is alive? Is there something that determination can give to you? Who is the...
The Natural State
December 05, 2018 12:33 - 13 minutes - 25.4 MBA spontaneous Satsang recorded in Portugal "The potential of being human is to discover that state within oneself which is beyond effort, which cannot be maintained or sustained. No effort is required for being. Once that realization has occurred, one sees that oneself is not the moving part, not emotion, not time, not space, not body, not relationship, not contact, not separation, not mind, not senses, not anything that belongs to the interrelated play of opposites. Knowing I am not that,...
