Acute and radical pointing, pointing, pointing to what we truly are. How wonderful to discover a tuff-loving teacher who can tear away the veils of false belief and attachments that blind us.
Thank you Mooji. In the middle of listening to your video, I experienced and recognized the true nature of Being. Through your guided questioning 'can the witness be seen' and through the inquiry process, True Nature of Being was realized. Blessings to you.
One of the best and most important teachings I have ever heard. It has helped me with my Zazen practice and understanding of original self. Thank you so much Mooji.
Clear seeing and clearly sharing what is so. Mooji has a way of getting to and directly pointing to that which is the root of THAT which we are. Inquiry in a way that takes us to that space that already is! Contemplate these things!
your thoughts are beautiful... it's wonderful to know that there are others aware of self... i often wonder if i am the only one who cares to see what IS. You are wonderful. Please never stop spreading these messages.
Wow while I was watching/listening this by the end of the video I realised I am in a mess with tears! Thank you Mooji! If anyone in london wenna awaking dictations feel free to contact me. Peace and Love
“Come, come, whoever you are. Wanderer, worshiper, lover of leaving. It doesn't matter. Ours is not a caravan of despair. come, even if you have broken your vows a thousand times. Come, yet again , come , come.” ― Rumi
8:30 I bust out laughing, I'm with it and understand it's just hilarious because Imagine trying to explain that to someone who's never had a toe in this direction
Something i've often wondered is - Does the awareness\seer have it's own intelligence to work out that what it is seeing is just imagined or does it need a mind to be able to work that out? In other words, is it just like a newborn child that just takes in everything without question until it mind is developed enough to start questioning?
clear water only mixes with clear water. Mooji, your words speak the unspeakable and radiate the unseekable. Non duality is the original state. Natural being beyond thinker, thinking and phenomenon thought about. Thank you for guidance and patience :-)
Now I have reached the end of my spiritual growth journey, I just want to cry every single day and every moment and every techniques that I struggeld with and every book, it really wortht it, Iam and Iam always but i was giving mind energy through some ineer roots it was in front of me all the times but some how you cant see it 😍 Some Notice : 1_ You are not there completly if you keep saying inside your head I did it or Now I understand or finally i fid.. simply you will reach a point where you will say to your self enough I dont wanna this anymore and you will not be inside your mind again you will divorce it the last thing now I want is something other than being my self witch i am effortless silence space.. 🌿 2_You will look at the mind as one mass. that search for happiness, out of space, for peace, so that you will realize that you are all these things, because when you have space, you will feel that you do not need any of these things. You are you a space !! thanks 😭😭😭😭😭💔💔
Totally clear, why the comments are off in the actual Mooji channel.....so ppl dont get lost in helpless tries of others to explain what cant be explained...it only adds to the chaos.
Yes, two of them are.......and there is also Francis Lucille, he is .........to. :-) They always point us back to our true nature, pure presence, awareness...silence in emptiness and the joy that goes with it. As we identify more and more with that which perceives...time will pass and we will be free from illusions, we will be peaceful and happy without a specific reason.
Can the knower of knowledge be known ? Because all this (this reality) is a manifestation of consciousness then the knowledge from that reality cannot be unknown to the source of the manifestation, which if is the knower, which is the consciousness, which is you. Compare this to a dream. Can any part of the dream not be known by the dreamer ?
dialysis global warming kim jong un. mooji, ji, should have a playlist from 1 to whatever where 1 is basic, introductory message and so on so that a viewer like me can follow better his messages.
All trusted spiritual practices are intended to get us to this awareness: Don't follow a path that is not about seeking the "truth" of our being. Mooji is pointing to the truth, and he gives it away freely, A Saint in my eyes!
I appreciate Mooji and the insight he shares. I am concerned that adolescent minds will hear the advice, "If you feel like doing.....do it" well some people feel like murdering, suicide, raping, stealing, lying. Perhaps this stage of awareness indicates a dropping off of those types of urges, but based on some of the comments, angry ego has found it's way to this video. In the hands of angry ego, the simplest idea can be fuel to a fire of destruction. We saw this in Charleston. Is there a follower of Mooji or this thought that would elaborate the "do as you wilt" mentality comparatively to social injustices? Is it do in love what you feel?
If you remain as the Self (Witness, Spirit Consciousness), you apperceive experientially (as a "feeling-knowing") that all fragments in space/time phenomenality are in Truth one Being, indivisible, and you are that Being. You intuitively know and understand that mind projects superficial and rootless meaning onto apparently (not actually) separate objects (interpreting and organizing natural patterns for body/mind survival). However useful these surface interpretations may be for functioning in human society, deeper seeing reveals false projections from a psuedo-entity. With the exception of the most inspired and sublime contributions of scientists, philosophers, artists and spiritual teachers (we may call them pointers to Truth), most of it is an almost alien gibberish that is slung back and forth in often crude and destructive ways, rooted in fear for the purpose of distraction. That includes all imagined dramas, which lead to conflict. You see that all psycho-emotional suffering is ultimately self-inflicted, because suffering always requires your attention, belief and investment; and, at the heart of suffering is always the false concept of a separate, limited and personal "I". It is seen that this personal "I-concept" suffers, because of other "suffering concepts," but none of that is You. You realize that you as "angry ego" don't really exist and actually have no choice or control at all. Past is memory. Future is supposition. Present is passed before we can apprehend it. It's all unreal in a certain sense, an illusory holo-movement (known in some teachings as "Māyā").Only "I AM" Presence -- and the Aware knowing of that Presence; One in the same -- is Real, Pure, True and Unchanging. This "IS-ness" is original to you, before conditioning. The only "personal power" we have is discernment between the Real and the false. The more you "transcend" the false (psychological or empirical) self and its identifications, as well as the larger egregore, the more you understand that there is nothing to do regarding "social injustice." "Rights" and "wrongs" are often context dependent, complex, confusing, changing and amount to abuses of power. Energies will flow; let them. Know your divinity as the Self, and move in simple and clear manifest Love (the "Golden Rule"), while remaining rooted in and as the W(Holy) Now. The body/mind mechanism will take care of itself. Collective society will take care of itself. Let it be. The greatest gift you can give society is to know yourSelf and share that knowledge in some way. That is true freedom and salvation.
Samantha S. your thought is fear based and shows how lowly you think of the human spirit...you probably come from a christian background but contrary to popular belief this is not a fallen world and we are not fallen people dont be paranoid thinking if people were free to fo what they want they would instantly be killers.and rapist please stop believing evil is the deepest root or foundation of the world and the people in it...thats a form of devil worship.
JUST keep quiet..and watch your prisoner mind,making you jump thru hoops..Its crazy!!!DONT LISTEN TO THE MIND...IT WILL TORTURE 24 X 7... JUST LIKE IT HAS,BIRTH AFTER COUNTLESS BIRTH. AND KEEP BRINGING YOU BACK TO ANOTHER RE-BIRTH..
I really don't understand what he is talking about. This is now going to be my third time to watch this video and I'm still completely lost. What is the question he is trying to answer. Observe these things(what things?) but if you are an observer who identifies with them then you are beyond the observing.....? Really confused here....
Same here i am a little on the confused side too, i have watched this video several times but i just cannot seem to grasp the question. I think maybe the question is more intiutive than intellectual. Everytime i have attempted it seems like there is nothing there but just emptiness. I too wish someone would just elaborate a little on this.
69MrBunny Piche Traful i have not this video but through reading comments i can guess what he is talking about. the excercise will take you to a space where your true self is revealed to you, that which cannot be named, needs no awakening, and is truly no 'thing'. Gangaji is another teacher who is good at taking you to this place, and she has youtube videos as well. her teacher is a man named papaji and i have read his book called 'the fire for freedom vol 1' and i think his prose is easier to understand than hers but hers may be more powerful in a different way, if you are in a more meditative place perhaps . . . anyway, papaji's teacher was sri ramana maharishi and i believe they show a true path toward enlightenment. now that i have 'found' this 'way' i end up seeing it so many other places. i hope this has been helpful for you both. but the 'nothing there but just emptiness' is a step in the right direction. you must dive further though . . . the meditation is on the question 'who am i?' and no answer that can be put into words is a true answer for these but labels you associate with your identity. you are no 'thing'.
***** it is hard for me to formulate a reply to you that i can see benefitting you, but i will try to maybe explain the concept more fully so that you understand it. i do not however see how it would benefit anyone for me to respond to your message directly on a point by point basis. (i have now watched the video and it is pretty much exactly the concept i thought and he actually gets it across well in my opinion but i have read several books and know what he is trying to get across) satsang means something like 'communion with truth' and that is what is gathering is called. it is meant for those who seek ultimate truth or 'enlightenment'. in my opinion, some of these concepts would be difficult for anyone to understand who does not earnestly want to understand the world they live in or live the best way. mooji is using many different ways to say the same thing, which cannot actually be conveyed accurately with our words . . . but he is trying to help you break away from the idea that you need to add anything to your consciousness to find peace. it is difficult for many of us to maintain the perspective of the 'observer', we constantly get sucked back into the stories of our lives and the energies that have persisted through this life our and lifetimes before. for Piche Traful and 69MrBunny the question he is trying to answer is only a tool to help you when you get caught back in the story and out of unbiased awareness (assuming you understand and are pursuing this goal) and the question is 'who observes these things?' these things being phenomena rising around you . . . remembering who and what you really are in every moment. this video is for seekers of all levels and it is a wonderful light on the path.
***** according to you what is he trying to say? I do agree with you about knowing that everything is nothing and that everything is a creation of the mind. However, the body, which is the place where the mind resides does need to be nurtured. We cannot just go through life expecting nothing, wanting nothing we need to live.
he is not barking. he is talking about a common thing. just because you have never heard of it before or don't understand (nor have probably tried anyone) it does not mean that is garbage. it is actually a concept that has helped me in my life in profound ways. Piche Traful yes, it is great to nurture the body, as well as to nurture the mind but the truth of who and what you are is neither of these things, itt is before these things. it is was mind and body rise in and fall away again from. these videos are cool and to me he does a great job, but again i am familiar with the information and the process he is conveying. i believe the papaji book i mentioned earlier will be the best resource for you because it is real conversation he had that was recorded and then later put into text. people as great questions and he has such a wonderfully conversation tone that you cant help but to pick it up. now this part is for both of you, just my own interjection to see if it makes a difference. ***** i have a hard time relating to your opinion that something that 'doesn't give you anything' is worthless. i don't think you are fully understanding the concept, or trying to. but maybe you are and just have a more cynical perspective about this reality that i: which is perfectly acceptable. to me, this reality is something like a playground for 'souls' to come and grow through learning about themselves by jumping into many different incarnations. the way that papaji describes it is that 'in one lucky lifetime the desire for true freedom arises'. the truth is that you are always free, you must only realize it. it isn't necessarily that you 'gain nothing' it is that you realize that everything you have been attempting to get through different sensations and experiences has always been there for you. once you are able to go further within yourself and see that 'you' (awareness, not the collection of labels we call an identity) are actually the void that all things come from and disappear into then you can begin to incorporate your truer perspective into your life. mooji illustrates a technique that you may use to bring you back into awareness of your more true, more infinite perspective when you are getting caught up in the story of this life and are suffering for it, which is to ask the question 'who sees these things' where 'these things' is whatever you are experiencing. from there you can realize that you are not only this simple life but are something like a piece of a much fuller being. a piece connected to and producing all the others. in other places i have found this called the tiny space in the heart but i have not heard those who teach this particular thing call it that. in summation, i believe that this is the ultimate teaching with true enlightenment at its core. i do not mean to 'know' intelligently will bring enlightenment, but to 'understand' inherently and in every moment would be that enlightenment. i find that the more i focus on maintaining this broader perspective of my existence, my narrower perspective improves. once the Buddha was asked what he gained from enlightenment and his reply was nothing. it flabergasted the inquirer, but eventually the Buddha told him that he did not ask the right question. that he had gained nothing, but he had lost something like anger fear and suffering. in my life, this has allowed me to feel more in control but that the same time accept what comes and goes. the further i delve, the deeper it seems to go. eventually i anticipate a jump into a full understanding as opposed to making small steps. +pichu traful, in order to go all the way with this thing, i really believe you must have the desire for 'freedom' as papaji calls it but there are many other ways to put it. the main thing is to be serious about your spiritual life, not pursuing anything but your completeness, settling for nothing short.
Does anyone else get alarm bells when he says that you are not the true witness if you have interest in what you're aobserving? I understand that we should not be attatched to people and ideas to the point of falling apart without them. But the girl I love, I see her, and I am interested. I think of God as a personal being, and Jesus, and I am filled with peaceful interest, call it affinity, call it purpose. This is not something I should move away from. I am not looking for nirvana. I am looking for the fullness of love when I empty myself of obsessions, fears, scenarios.
just let it happen then....... no mind helps love! :) the mind covers up love. if you're analyzing this with your mind and it's making you think that you shouldn't love someone.. that's not what mooji's saying, that's your mind
Arent you in the PERECT place Mooji is pointing to?? A silent Mind ENJOYS ITSELF,and every thing it percieves...sees,gives attention to.In Silence ALONE you can see your Self since from Silence we came and to Silence we wil return.Ever seen a dead man talking??Or a babe in the womb ,chattig with you??Or do you routinely speak when you sleep well??And wake up refreshed because you have ''slept''...beeen silent well?
We are the electricity that think we are light bulbs we are free to be light bulbs if we choose can act and function as a light bulb. make our small light bulb experiments very colorful and decorative but we are limited as this where lightbulbs are stationary electricity is spread throughout the entire universe and source of all happening
Kidnapped by the finite. The ransom has been paid a thousand fold there is no dept owed to mankind other than the conscious awareness of self vibrating through the spectrums of my experience♪_/\_
Acute and radical pointing, pointing, pointing to what we truly are. How wonderful to discover a tuff-loving teacher who can tear away the veils of false belief and attachments that blind us.
This is so good. Mooji is a phenomenally skillful teacher. Thank you, universe, for manifesting Mooji to guide those of us who can hear him.
I wish I could hear him/understand :)
You will in your own time ❤@@kolarz2128
Thank you Mooji. In the middle of listening to your video, I experienced and recognized the true nature of Being. Through your guided questioning 'can the witness be seen' and through the inquiry process, True Nature of Being was realized. Blessings to you.
This is truly an incredible being. The words touch the soul. 💖⭐️💖
The master key has been given in this video
Yes
What do you mean?
Its true. After more than 10 years, I keep coming back to this one video in particular
One of the best and most important teachings I have ever heard. It has helped me with my Zazen practice and understanding of original self. Thank you so much Mooji.
Agreed..Magical❤
Everything hinges upon you, the perceiver...You are not the mind... Be totally clear until this amnesia is over. ~ Mooji
💐🙏🏼💞 BABA, YOUR GESTURES, YOUR EXPRESSIONS, YOUR VOICE i feel very fortunate to be in THE DIVINE PRESENCE OF YOURS. KOTI KOTI PRANAM BHAGWAN 🙏🏼💐💗
True
Always, when I listen to you I hear exactly what I need to hear in the moment. Thank you Mooji.
Helen Watson because the universe is guiding
The self will never bow to the mind! "Mooji"
Clear seeing and clearly sharing what is so. Mooji has a way of getting to and directly pointing to that which is the root of THAT which we are. Inquiry in a way that takes us to that space that already is! Contemplate these things!
your thoughts are beautiful... it's wonderful to know that there are others aware of self... i often wonder if i am the only one who cares to see what IS. You are wonderful. Please never stop spreading these messages.
Wow while I was watching/listening this by the end of the video I realised I am in a mess with tears! Thank you Mooji! If anyone in london wenna awaking dictations feel free to contact me. Peace and Love
wdum by awaking dictations?
Moojii...💜🌸 You can't live fully until you become pure consciousness. Infinity can't be contained by the finite.
I now understand my fragmented energy much better and how I can practice seeing the soup of it all with great ease.
If the watcher has interest in what’s its watching, it’s not the real watcher 🤯🤯. Great stuff
Saw a photo of one of the many abandoned, alone and dying dogs in Fukushima area. Had to cry today. Mooji keeps me going though.
“Come, come, whoever you are. Wanderer, worshiper, lover of leaving. It doesn't matter. Ours is not a caravan of despair. come, even if you have broken your vows a thousand times. Come, yet again , come , come.”

Thank You for your words of wisdom
Mooji thanks for these wise words
Thank you Mooji, this resonates well with my full awareness. I caught it :)
❤️🙏Best, The Best video ❤️🙏 Thanks a lot ❤️
8:30 I bust out laughing, I'm with it and understand it's just hilarious because Imagine trying to explain that to someone who's never had a toe in this direction
"Can the knower of knowledge be known?"
Do you know the answer after 4 years? c:
I'm 100" sure after 12 years he is still lost, forced to follow mooji in india or Portugal cause without him he is even more lost
No. It can not be the object which can be seen or touch . But u know him already. He is the one ( who is asking the question).
Something i've often wondered is - Does the awareness\seer have it's own intelligence to work out that what it is seeing is just imagined or does it need a mind to be able to work that out?
In other words, is it just like a newborn child that just takes in everything without question until it mind is developed enough to start questioning?
It has no interest in 'working things out' it IS
clear water only mixes with clear water.
Mooji, your words speak the unspeakable and radiate the unseekable. Non duality is the original state. Natural being beyond thinker, thinking and phenomenon thought about.
Thank you for guidance and patience :-)
Now I have reached the end of my spiritual growth journey, I just want to cry every single day and every moment and every techniques that I struggeld with and every book, it really wortht it, Iam and Iam always but i was giving mind energy through some ineer roots it was in front of me all the times but some how you cant see it 😍
Some Notice :
1_ You are not there completly if you keep saying inside your head I did it or Now I understand or finally i fid.. simply you will reach a point where you will say to your self enough I dont wanna this anymore and you will not be inside your mind again you will divorce it the last thing now I want is something other than being my self witch i am effortless silence space.. 🌿
2_You will look at the mind as one mass. that search for happiness, out of space, for peace, so that you will realize that you are all these things, because when you have space, you will feel that you do not need any of these things. You are you a space !!
thanks 😭😭😭😭😭💔💔
I love you Mooji!
Probably the greatest statement I've heard or read. Kind of feel weird typing " I ". I need to sleep.
Mental Personalities vs Spirit Being .. "Thank God, for Moojiji" (::)
Mooji giving a smack down to the mind! Nice!
Thankyou thankyou thankyou.
So beautiful
Absolutely perfect, thanks.
Much gratitude for the photographer team apart from Mooji.
@SubtleSeeing It's so good to see so many people seeing this.
Love you endlessly. Mooji
A Jamaican hindu teacher...never heard of that before..... Good stuff
Nice phenomenal flash at 16:30
lol yea what was that?
Thank you, thank you, thank you Mooji
Mooji--what a guy!
Totally clear, why the comments are off in the actual Mooji channel.....so ppl dont get lost in helpless tries of others to explain what cant be explained...it only adds to the chaos.
You say it as it is the truth great stuff thanks help me. Sir. 🙏🇬🇧💐👌🇬🇧
I understand what you are saying perfectly.
how can you repay people that help you wake up, but being humbly speechless.
This guy is up there with Adyashanti as far as spiritual/true self speakers go.
I don"t think he's hindu, he doesn't need any labels. He's just a very clever human being.
Does Anyone know if Mooji comes to the States to do Satsang?
go to Mooji.org....you will find a schedule there
I love you Mooji❤😎
Namaste my dear being.....
Right on point, thanks 👍
Just than, when I begin writing the comment, the question has come: "Who am I"? With thank from heart - and no comment
Mooji, I love you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you so much...
Yes, two of them are.......and there is also Francis Lucille, he is .........to.
:-)
They always point us back to our true nature, pure presence, awareness...silence in emptiness and the joy that goes with it.
As we identify more and more with that which perceives...time will pass and we will be free from illusions, we will be peaceful and happy without a specific reason.
Thank you ❤
why argue over what style bruce lee was ? - just appreciate a master ! :-)
Thanks, Mooji!
i am witnessing the witness converse with mooji about what "i" am doing
Merci ❤
thank you love u mooji

Excellent
I may be way off here, but this sounds much like what Zen is all about, isn't it?

STOP labeling..step back from your chattering Mind.And see it for what it is.And know you are NOT the Mind.but the WHOLE,ABSOLOUTE TRUTH AND BLISS
♥ ♥ ♥ Mooji ♥ ♥ ♥
Mooji is about Transcendence.....
I am a conduit of consciousness and I will remain The observer
"That" exists before "I am" ..... why does "I am" need reinforced, repeated?... egoic hu man does not hear, just agrees or disagrees...
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
so the pure observer has no reflection
amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
why do people go to see a guru,when there is nothing to get?

Piche Traful yes, it is great to nurture the body, as well as to nurture the mind but the truth of who and what you are is neither of these things, itt is before these things. it is was mind and body rise in and fall away again from. these videos are cool and to me he does a great job, but again i am familiar with the information and the process he is conveying. i believe the papaji book i mentioned earlier will be the best resource for you because it is real conversation he had that was recorded and then later put into text. people as great questions and he has such a wonderfully conversation tone that you cant help but to pick it up.
now this part is for both of you, just my own interjection to see if it makes a difference. ***** i have a hard time relating to your opinion that something that 'doesn't give you anything' is worthless. i don't think you are fully understanding the concept, or trying to. but maybe you are and just have a more cynical perspective about this reality that i: which is perfectly acceptable. to me, this reality is something like a playground for 'souls' to come and grow through learning about themselves by jumping into many different incarnations. the way that papaji describes it is that 'in one lucky lifetime the desire for true freedom arises'. the truth is that you are always free, you must only realize it. it isn't necessarily that you 'gain nothing' it is that you realize that everything you have been attempting to get through different sensations and experiences has always been there for you. once you are able to go further within yourself and see that 'you' (awareness, not the collection of labels we call an identity) are actually the void that all things come from and disappear into then you can begin to incorporate your truer perspective into your life. mooji illustrates a technique that you may use to bring you back into awareness of your more true, more infinite perspective when you are getting caught up in the story of this life and are suffering for it, which is to ask the question 'who sees these things' where 'these things' is whatever you are experiencing. from there you can realize that you are not only this simple life but are something like a piece of a much fuller being. a piece connected to and producing all the others. in other places i have found this called the tiny space in the heart but i have not heard those who teach this particular thing call it that. in summation, i believe that this is the ultimate teaching with true enlightenment at its core. i do not mean to 'know' intelligently will bring enlightenment, but to 'understand' inherently and in every moment would be that enlightenment. i find that the more i focus on maintaining this broader perspective of my existence, my narrower perspective improves. once the Buddha was asked what he gained from enlightenment and his reply was nothing. it flabergasted the inquirer, but eventually the Buddha told him that he did not ask the right question. that he had gained nothing, but he had lost something like anger fear and suffering. in my life, this has allowed me to feel more in control but that the same time accept what comes and goes. the further i delve, the deeper it seems to go. eventually i anticipate a jump into a full understanding as opposed to making small steps.
+pichu traful, in order to go all the way with this thing, i really believe you must have the desire for 'freedom' as papaji calls it but there are many other ways to put it. the main thing is to be serious about your spiritual life, not pursuing anything but your completeness, settling for nothing short.

Does anyone else get alarm bells when he says that you are not the true witness if you have interest in what you're aobserving?
I understand that we should not be attatched to people and ideas to the point of falling apart without them.
But the girl I love, I see her, and I am interested. I think of God as a personal being, and Jesus, and I am filled with peaceful interest, call it affinity, call it purpose.
This is not something I should move away from. I am not looking for nirvana. I am looking for the fullness of love when I empty myself of obsessions, fears, scenarios.
just let it happen then....... no mind helps love! :) the mind covers up love. if you're analyzing this with your mind and it's making you think that you shouldn't love someone.. that's not what mooji's saying, that's your mind
Arent you in the PERECT place Mooji is pointing to?? A silent Mind ENJOYS ITSELF,and every thing it percieves...sees,gives attention to.In Silence ALONE you can see your Self since from Silence we came and to Silence we wil return.Ever seen a dead man talking??Or a babe in the womb ,chattig with you??Or do you routinely speak when you sleep well??And wake up refreshed because you have ''slept''...beeen silent well?
this geezer is super....

I don't think he's hindu.. he just teaches what he learned from a hindu spiritual teacher
We are the electricity that think we are light bulbs we are free to be light bulbs if we choose can act and function as a light bulb. make our small light bulb experiments very colorful and decorative but we are limited as this where lightbulbs are stationary electricity is spread throughout the entire universe and source of all happening
Kidnapped by the finite. The ransom has been paid a thousand fold there is no dept owed to mankind other than the conscious awareness of self vibrating through the spectrums of my experience♪_/\_
who am i teaching?
so just be........
