In this illuminating conversation, Mooji and Jonny Wilkinson delve into the true nature of our being, the quest for freedom, and the power of letting go. After a long and successful career as a rugby player, Jonny turned to exploring Self realisation, and we are very happy to share this uplifting interview.

"If there's a shift, it's like a shift from person to presence. As you come more into presence and you begin to honor the presence, life becomes so much richer and broader in all its scope. All the antics of the person will gradually yield to the wiser being and you will know actually that within itself it is limitless and imperishable."

The best way to serve God is to be empty of the sense of a personal "you".

By following Moojibaba's guidance we experience harmony with God and find absolute joy in the emptiness of being.

"To seek God for the sake of finding God, I feel this is serving the whole world."

Often we desire things, believing they will bring immense happiness, but eventually realize they fall short of our expectations.

Moojibaba shares that true fulfillment lies within our heart and to make use of this life to fully awaken to our true nature.

"The call to awakening has to be in the now. There has to be the pulse of now-ness in you, because the rest is all mind and ego. There is something in us that easily falls asleep. Come out of the hole into the whole, the wholeness of grace and God's presence in you.

What does it mean to integrate? To continue to not identify with things that come up. We are not on a journey to refine the person — include also the sense of the person as a phenomenon perceived by something which cannot be seen.

The person is a restless state, searching for rest in fulfilling its projections. Be here in your unchanging being. Your real journey begins within — in this within-ness, you learn to observe with detachment and discover your natural state.

Moojibaba's emphasis in this talk is on the importance of observing thoughts and sensations with detachment. From the stillness of the detached witness, peace and harmony infuse all of our daily interactions.

"The whole world is like a passing show. When you're still, you gradually begin to feel the full power of your presence. It resonates like peace, like a solid peace, a well beingness, joy, silent, content, happy, not happy about, just happy. Happiness is your nature."

With a simple and direct approach, Moojibaba takes us to the heart of his guidance which leads to full and everlasting freedom.

"Before you pick up any instruction, sit with yourself. Don't engage with the noise of the mind. Come back to the place of being. This is key. Being with it consciously and devotedly, everything comes right."

Moojibaba shares a simple 10 minute exercise to awaken to our true Self.

The exercise involves sitting down and emptying one's mind, staying present and aware of oneself and observing thoughts and feelings without identifying with them.

With practice, we become established in presence and experience a transformation in our being, realizing that the true self is not the mind-created identity, but consciousness itself.

"If you can follow this, you will find real happiness, real joy, and realize how precious your life is. Not your life lived to satisfy your egoic and personal identity, but the life that is eternal, unending and beautiful."

Through a simple yet direct guidance to observe the play of life with detachment, we discover the difference between the ego and the Self.

We are also reminded that each response from the Master is universal food for all, and not miss our chance for transcendence by holding onto the sense of a unique personal question or problem.

“This exercise has been followed for thousands of years. Many came out of the prison house of personhood and won themselves back.

Anywhere you sit resting in your being, that place becomes your temple, your mosque, your cave.”

In this potent talk, Moojibaba points to the singular understanding which can set us free from all of the suffering born from the mind and personhood.

“If I had to impart one thing, the greatest advice, what would it be? It would be that whatever arises as mind, you begin to observe it dispassionately. Don’t get involved — as though you are a mere witness on the scene. Keep out of the crime scene.

Observe with detachment, don’t cling to the sense of personhood. Don’t log into the mind wave — you can do it. At some point, all of the noise of the mind will drift away, and what will be left is the full presence of Presence. The health of your Being.

Uncomplicated, formless, perfectly at peace.”

Mooji gives a simple and essential guidance to observe the play of life as though we are sitting inside the room of our own Being — untroubled, with a sweet detachment and deepening peace.

"Observe, but don't be too interested.

If you get interested,

you get identified very easily.

You are looking from a stillness,

there's no need to control.

Be aware of just being aware."
