This guided meditation with Mooji is offered in honour and celebration of the life of the beloved and revered Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh. It was shared as part of the A Call to Awakening online retreat with Mooji taking place from 19-23 January.  

A most extraordinary spiritual teacher and peace activist, Thich Nhat Hanh touched and inspired millions of lives with his teachings and guidance. Known for his peaceful nature, tender compassion and bright wisdom, he is an immense force for peace and healing in the world. A true bodhisattva, he brings out the authentic radiance of Buddhism—we honour his presence and all that he imparted to the world.


Known as Thay to his followers, he began to transition at midnight, and passed away peacefully at 1.30am on January 22, 2022 at Từ Hiếu Temple in Huế, Vietnam, at the age of 95. Our love, prayers and blessings are with him and his Sangha at this profound time.  

"This body is not me; I am not caught in this body, I am life without boundaries, I have never been born and I have never died. Over there the wide ocean and the sky with many galaxies all manifests from the basis of consciousness. 

Since beginning-less time I have always been free. Birth and death are only a door through which we go in and out. Birth and death are only a game of hide-and-seek. So smile to me and take my hand and wave good-bye. Tomorrow we shall meet again or even before. We shall always be meeting again at the true source. Always meeting again on the myriad paths of life."

No Death, No Fear ~ Thich Nhat Hanh

In this insightful exchange, a student shares that he finds himself getting personally identified when interacting and speaking with others. He asks for Moojibaba’s guidance on how to remain as awareness in these moments.

“You must recognise that the one speaking is itself a movement inside the unchaining awareness. Awareness did not leave itself.

See that this is just a call to clarify your seeing: ‘Am I really what I am seeing?’ 
Whatever the scenario is, ask: ’Is this actually an authentic reading of my being?’”

"How Do I Stay as Awareness and Interact with the World?"

In this talk, Moojibaba brings us into the heart of his Satsangs in a fresh and powerful way. Mooji presents the quintessential understanding which we must sit with and contemplate until it combusts into spirit in our hearts.

“If your heart yearns for Truth, the grace of God is with you. If you are really understanding and really seeing, the way your life flows will change — it has to! It cannot be just a mental discovery. 

Let go of everything. Don’t be anything. In my heart, I meet you as the Truth — the Truth you are. I converse with you on this basis.”

Be at Peace Even with a Chaotic Mind

On one of his morning walks, Moojibaba meets a student who expresses she has been struggling with the busy-ness of daily life. In response Moojibaba shares this powerful exercise to stay with the sense of being.

“Give yourself the gift of 5 minutes in the morning, 5 minutes at lunch time and 5 minutes in the evening. Just sit for 5 minutes. Be aware of being. This basic ‘I-existence’ feeling and be conscious of it.

You will start to feel within these 5 minutes a slowing down of everything, and you come back to the space of being. That space of being is the most important thing in all of your life.”

Take 5 Minutes to Come to Total Rest

In this Satsang excerpt, Moojibaba addresses the sense of ‘doing’ in spiritual practice — how can we balance the urge to meditate and strive for spiritual awakening with the recognition that there is nothing to do, and we are already that?

Mooji cuts right to the heart of the issue and directs us to the quintessential understanding:

“Nobody has ever found the balance. I take away that mischief from you. Only God is balance.”

Mooji points out that both the sense of doing and striving, and the one we take ourselves to be who is trying to attain something, are two sides of the same coin, and both are perceived on the screen of consciousness. Are we witnessing this play from the perspective of the person or from pure awareness?

"Mooji, How Do I Balance Good Effort with No Effort?"

A simple metaphor, the story of the two birds illustrates the shift from the personal doer, caught up in daily life, to the neutral, impersonal observing presence.

“Don’t try to stop the mind, let him run, if you don’t log into that activity and just observe, the mind becomes farther away and the observing space comes into focus. 
 
At first it might seem that this is too passive, mind will say, 'You are not doing anything at all, your are pretending, what’s all this spirituality?'

Just be aware of that and continue seeing that’s just another voice arising in the space of observing. I don’t want to tell you anything more, discover what it is.”

An Insightful Story of 2 Birds

In this Satsang we are called to put our attention on the now. The now beyond time and the here beyond place, our very own true Self.

“The now has no history and no biography, it’s just the purity and quintessence of all that is. 

Now is not a time quality, now is eternal, it’s timeless. It’s pointing only 
to the presence, which I call the presence of God, which is the true nature of a human being. 

Thinking about future is robbing yourself of the beauty and completeness of your now-ness.”

The Eternal, Timeless Now

In this powerful Satsang, Mooji takes us into the heart of self-inquiry, urging us to follow the sense of ‘I’ and see what shapes we are still holding to be ourselves. Through the course of this guidance, we are brought to the still, empty and silent place of the formless witness.

“What truly is will not appear — everything else appears and disappears. What I’ve said today, unplanned, is enough to take anyone earnest home. 

There is a play within each one, a play of avoidance. It’s as old as life. 

Whatever it is that you give value to, your attention and energy will go there. Taste and see that the Lord is good.”

Abide In and As the Sky of Awareness

Upcoming Online Awakening Retreat (5-9 October 2022)
https://mooji.org/events/online-awakening-retreat-oct-2022
Registration open until Sunday, 2 October

We are very happy to share that there is a 5-day Online Awakening Retreat with Mooji taking place 5-9 October, 2022. This retreat is offered for mature and earnest seekers who have been in Satsang for some time and are deeply familiar with Moojibaba’s pointings, especially An Invitation to Freedom and what it reveals in you. 

~

In this rich and insightful talk, Moojibaba responds to a questioner who asks how we can stay in our inner emptiness, the true Self, when life also calls us to engage with the troubles and sorrows of the world? How can we engage with others and see to our responsibilities in life without losing touch with our true nature?

“The whole world seems to be in this heightened tension of personhood and fears, anxieties and aspirations that come with that state. All situations and conditions are helping you to recognise, to discern, and to throw the attention back into the abyss of the unmoving Self.

If you are grounded, others may very naturally settle down in their being — that's the power of your own centered-ness.”

'A Call to Awakening' Online Retreat | 27 May 2022
An excerpt from the Satsang: "Turn the Window to the World Into the Mirror of the Self"

The Power of Being Centered

In this powerful Satsang, Mooji points us beyond the mere intellectual understanding of his pointers to the direct experience of the timeless now. 

"I’m not pointing you to a path of pain,
but a path of discovery.

You’re not just living life,
you are life itself.

You are consciousness, you are the God Self,
we are whole, and wholesome.

Know you are the Self,
know you are One—
let yourself dissolve."

Shortcut to Freedom

Upcoming Online Weekend Retreat with Mooji — 17-19 March 2023
https://mooji.org/events/online-weekend-retreat-mar-2023

Mooji guides us through a potent and transformative Self-inquiry guidance, triggered by a questioner's frustration that sometimes he is not able to shift to the place of the Self.

“Right now, out of my love for you, I tell you, ‘Drop all of this with me.’ 

Don’t touch any of this. Just have one moment with me. 
One moment with me, without anything at all.
One moment, not holding any shape at all.

Can you do it?”
