mooji-stay as awareness

Whenever mind comes, just stay as the Awareness.
Sit in This as This itself.
He, mind, will come and do everything
to get your attention and interest
—he will call you by name and play all his best cards,
but just stay as the Awareness.
Your heart begins thumping hard, a headache is coming,
but just stay as the Awareness.
This is how I want to help you,
because this is what will actually help you
to ultimate freedom.
Let’s not focus on your problems,
because there is no end to them;
in fact, the problem-game just multiplies
and keeps your false identity alive.
I want to go to the root of everything,
not to merely trim the leaves of this tree.
Through habit, attention keeps connecting
to some images in the mind
to which you give importance
and so it seems difficult to come out from that.
But come out! How?
Seeing and confirming your position
as the witness-awareness of all mind's play
and thus confirming through the direct experiencing
that you are the formless Seer
—this is how you come out.
This is the final fruit of true Satsang.

"If there is an ‘I’ who can ‘get it’,
there will be an ‘I’ who can ‘lose it’,
and this ‘I’ is nothing but thought.
It is the most costly thought when believed in, for it exchanges your innocence for complexity and your spontaneity for inhibition."
~ Master Mooji

Here as you are now, what is your experience?
This now-ness, this Now of now. Past is past—gone!
It is only perpetuated through memory,
but the actuality of what you call past is unrepeatable.
The future—it is only an idea.
Nobody has ever experienced the future.
You only experience now-ness.
What are you right now?
Whatever has passed, meaningfully,
is embodied in the Now; the debris discharged.
You are Here, whole and One.
If you don’t touch past or project any idea of future,
as you are in this moment, without going to the mind
or stirring up unnecessary thought—who are you?
What has happened? Where is any problem?
What is reality?
You are Here. If you move in Here as Here itself,
even as your legs move,
can you say when you arrive ‘there’?
What exactly is ‘here’ or ‘here’ for that
which perceives both?
No imagination is needed now, no creativity required.
In your sober being, no image is lastingly true.
Don’t wait for the next hit, the next movement
or the next experience for that too will pass.
You are Here, simply Here.
Here is the great Silence, the great Stillness.
The uncreated Stillness. The impeccable Silence.
The fullness of Being. The concept-free Reality.
Your unblemished Self.
How are you when you are not in a state of waiting?
Neither wishing for change nor holding onto any story.
Free from attachment to any ideal.
Who is there to suffer? Or even rejoice?
Notice that all things come and go of their own accord.
All things pass—except This—your Self.
See with your true inner eyes and confirm.

more spiritual

If you think it's more "spiritual" to become a vegetarian, buy Organic Foods, practice yoga and meditate, but then you find yourself judging those who don't do all these things, you fell into an ego trap.
If you think it's more "spiritual" riding a bike or public transport at work, but then you're judging those in the car, you fell into an ego trap.
If you think it's more "spiritual" to stop watching tv because it cancels your brain, but then you're judging those who still look at you, you fell into an ego trap.
If you think it's more "spiritual" to avoid reading newspapers and gossip magazines, but then you judge those who read them, you fell into an ego trap.
If you think it's more "spiritual" listening to classical music or sounds of nature, but then you're judging who listens to commercial music, you fell into an ego trap.
You always have to be careful about the feeling of "superiority". it is the most important clue we have to realize that we are dealing into an ego trap. The ego is cleverly hidden in noble thoughts like to start a vegetarian diet or use the bicycle and then turn into a sense of superiority towards those who do not follow the same spiritual path."

let go of everything

"All of your ideas, all of your concepts they've all got to go. There has to be only silence, quietness and everything will take care of itself. ... Let go of everything."
~ Robert Adams (20th century American Advaita mystic)
