Quote

Attention pays attention to a lot of things, but when attention pays attention to attention, then there is a stillness, and that stillness introduces you to your Self.

Your self-image is as ephemeral as the play of light dancing on the surface of the water.
Mooji
Image
Find that place which is effortlessly at rest within itself. Be there-be one with that.
Mooji
Image
You are the knower of knowledge you perceive perceiving. Come to this place, and see if any questions remain there within you.
Mooji
Image
There is a mystery within all beings bursting to reveal itself, in the ones who become quiet enough to discover it. In this discovery a benevolent force shines spontaneously from your presence towards all beings, and this light cannot help but illuminate the world.
Mooji
Image
You are not merely the body you are 100% Pure Being. But you must find this out for yourself. It must become your own discovery, happening in your innermost being.
Mooji
Image
Go beyond everything. Don't collect anything. A king does not need to go shopping in his own kingdom. Nor does he beg. Remember, you are the inner reality-pure awareness only. All that arises are appearances in consciousness. Don't bother with all that. Rest only as the awareness. This is the secret.
Mooji
Image
The whole point of all these conversations is to leave your mind empty, not full. If you go away with learning, you have missed the opportunity
Mooji
Image
I don't tell you what you should do or not do I only show you who you are -the timeless and unchanging awareness. When this is firmly established inside you, your life will unfold spontaneously and joyously.
Mooji
Image
When you drop all your ideas, fantasies and projections about who you are and what freedom is and remain completely empty, this is freedom.
Mooji
Image
You ask, 'How to live my life?' But with the question you are suffocating life itself, for life is spontaneity.
Mooji
Image
Focus your mind on 'I Am', which is pure and simple being. You are Here and Now only. Contemplate what it is to be fully 'Here' and fully 'Now'. For this you must leave all else. Stay only as here-now Conscious presence. This is Heart. This is Self.
Mooji
Image
If you are curious, you will learn. If you are desperate, you will discover.

When the raindrop touches the ocean, can it tell a story.
Mooji
Image
You cannot be anything that you point to.
Mooji
Image
There is a Silence that is totally impersonal. It is not the fruit of anybody’s work. Peace is there, but there is no peacekeeper. This Peace is only known when the noise of the person is not present. In the absence of the 'person' there are no distractions. Only the ever-pure Awareness prevails. The Ultimate is nobody’s achievement at all.
Mooji
Image
The nature of illusion is that, when you see through it, it disappears.
Mooji
Image
Let the world call you lazy for not running about like a frightened ghost. Just be quiet inside yourself. Don't bother about knowing how things should be and simply begin observing without prejudice, projections or desires. Notice how life flows of its own accord. Nothing here is a chaos, but a harmony. You are already inside this flow.
Mooji
Image
Nothing belongs to you or me. Nothing belongs. Everything, everything, everything simply IS.
Mooji
Image
Blessed is the mind that jumps over and beyond its own conditioning and lands again into its natural state of unmoving awareness.
Mooji
Image
You already are, the peace you are looking for. Be still and know that
