Satsang with Mooji

We all know we exist. But as what do we exist?

Moojibaba speaks about the sense ‘I Am’, the sense of being, and encourages us to sit in this, as this. He continues that even this 'I Am'-ness can subside and what remains is the core of Awareness, the wordless state.

“But make sure this doesn’t become a concept. Stay with the sense of being and cross over the ocean of Samsara into the land of beingness.”

This is an extremely powerful and practical guidance that can be listened to over and over again.

Many seekers of truth complain of how noisy and restless the monkey mind can play, especially when there is an intention to be self aware as presence.

Moojibaba offers a straightforward guidance that exposes the monkey identity and reveals the pure space of the uninvolved witness.

“How to stop the monkey mind? — When you observe the mind with detachment, without logging into its energy it automatically slows down and is replaced by a sense of impersonal presence — which is definitely not monkey food.

It’s time to sit and just observe — let go of everything.”

This simple and easy to follow meditation directs the attention back to its source. We are guided to not identify with the body, thoughts or feelings but to remain as the detached witness. Like this we experience how it is to be just aware, how spacious, how natural. In a short time we find ourself back in our original, pure and timeless being.

“There is no technique of how to be. Just remember and be this. Fall in love with it. Protect it from the mind. Don't keep going into identity and all of this you will see remains always with you, as you.”

"Sometimes there is a deep, unrecognised message inside your being that you're going to fail."

Moojibaba exposes the false identity that is built around the idea of "not being good enough." This seed of unworthiness is the source of suffering, but it can be overcome by simply observing the minds fluctuations without interest. From this detached space of being we find true freedom from the burdens of self-doubt and fear.

"Don't just fall in love with practice. Do it and fall in love with that which it reveals in you. As long as your intention is for this, in your striving, help and grace will come to you."

This satsang is an absolute gem and master pointing on Self Inquiry. It exposes the falsehood of the personal ´I´ and is highly recommended for repeated viewing to confirm our true essence as pure awareness.

"What is your position in this act of perceiving? Are you looking from the mind? Or are you looking at the mind? And if you are looking at the mind, who are you that's looking?"

This must-watch satsang is at the very heart of Moojibaba's pointings. By remaining as the detached witness we are able to observe the mind and all its tricks which are appearing on the screen of consciousness.

Our work is simply to remain as awareness no matter what appears on the screen. Like this, the mind's power diminishes and peace is experienced effortlessly.

"Mind is producing different scenarios all the time. But at the place I speak from, it doesn't matter where you go, on the bus, on the train, on the airplane, on a rock. It doesn't matter. It's still the same. This is why I say, nothing else is really so much my teaching.

We are not going to be afraid of the darkness, because when the darkness comes, it only helps to polish our brightness."

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.
