"This Is Not True!" — A Simple and Profound Exercise

Moojibaba gives a simple but powerful exercise which he calls ‘mind watching.’

He asks us to scrutinise our thought activity. When a thought is seen to not be true, actually say: “this is not true” and immediately cut the attention to it. 

Like this we quickly come to recognise the vast and impersonal space of being.

"This Is Not True!" — A Simple and Profound Exercise

Oṃ Tāre Tuttāre Ture Svāhā
Om tare tuttare ture swaha (soha)

In short, om tare tuttare ture soha means “I prostrate to the Liberator, Mother of all the Victorious Ones.”
The Tara mantra is om tare tuttare ture soha. To explain the meaning of tare tuttare ture: tare means liberating from samsara.
Tare shows that Mother Tara liberates living beings from samsara, from true suffering, or problems. You can relate this to the particular sufferings of human beings: birth, old age, sickness and death; meeting undesirable objects and experiencing aversion; not finding desirable objects or finding them but gaining no satisfaction… All these are the problems of true suffering. If you rely upon Tara by taking refuge in her and doing Tara practices—such as the recitation of mantra or praises — with tare, Tara liberates you from all these true sufferings.
The second word, tuttare, liberates you from the eight fears. There are eight fears related to external dangers from fire, water, air, earth, and also from such things as thieves and dangerous animals. However, the main dangers come from ignorance, attachment, anger, pride, jealousy, miserliness, doubt and wrong views. These eight disturbing thoughts that you have in your mind are the main dangers… This second word, tuttare, which liberates you from the eight fears, frees you from the true cause of suffering: karma and the all-arising disturbing thoughts.
The third word, ture, liberates you from disease. Now, of the Four Noble Truths, ture shows the cessation of suffering, which is the ultimate Dharma. In terms of liberating from disease, the actual disease we have is ignorance not knowing the absolute nature of the I, and all the disturbing thoughts that arise from this ignorance… By liberating us from disease, ture actually liberates us from the true cause, disturbing thoughts, and also the true sufferings.
The rough meaning of these three words tare tuttare ture is: “To you, embodiment of all the Buddhas’ actions, I prostrate always — whether I am in happy or unhappy circumstances — with my body, speech and mind.”
The final word soha means establishing the root of the path within your heart. In other words, by taking refuge in Tara and doing Tara practice, you receive the blessings of Tara in your own heart. This gives you space to establish the root of the path, signified by tare tuttare ture, in your heart. By establishing the path of the three capable beings within your heart, you purify all impurities of your body, speech and mind, and achieve Tara’s pure vajra holy body, holy speech and holy mind, which are signified by om. Your body, speech and mind are transformed into Tara’s holy body, holy speech and holy mind. This is the rough meaning of om tare tuttare ture soha.

Anthony Paul Moo-Young, known as Mooji, was born on 29 January 1954 in Port Antonio, Jamaica. In 1969, he moved to the UK and he is presently living in Brixton, London. Anthony worked in London's 'West end' as a street portrait artist for many years, then as a painter and a stained glass artist, and later as a teacher at Brixton College. For a long time, he was well known as Tony Moo, but is now affectionately known as Mooji* by the many seekers and friends who visit him.

Mooji is a direct disciple of Sri Harilal Poonja, the renowned advaita master, or Papaji, as his followers call him. In 1987, a chance meeting with a Christian mystic was to be a life-changing encounter for Mooji. It brought him, through prayer, into the direct experience of the Divine within. Within a short period, he experienced a radical shift in consciousness so profound that outwardly, he seemed, to many who knew him, to be an entirely different person. As his spiritual consciousness awakened, a deep inner transformation began which unfolded in the form of many miraculous experiences and mystical insights. He felt a strong wind of change blowing through his life which brought with it a deep urge to surrender completely to divine will. Shortly after, he stopped teaching, left his home and began a life of quiet simplicity and surrender to the will of God as it manifested spontaneously within him. A great peace entered his being, and has remained ever since. http://www.mooji.org/biography.html

Mooji interview MP3

In these closing words of the Zmar Silent Retreat, Moojibaba reads a letter which opens up a deep looking into the nature of pure consciousness, 'I Am' presence, and the arising in consciousness of the conditioned person.

Moojibaba explores in depth the difference between ‘Nirguna Brahman’ — God without attributes, absolute awareness — and ‘Saguna Brahman’ — God with attributes, the divine Presence.

“We love to taste the honey, but we don’t want to be the honey. Here, you are tasting the honey, and you are also the honey. We are running out of words. Though speaking, when I speak of Nirguna, it is wordless, there are no concepts. It is really what you are.

This is a communication from heart to heart in the presence of the Absolute.”

Satsang with Mooji

If You Hear These Words Inside Your Heart, You Are Free Today

Moojibaba invites us to use this time when many around the world are in self-quarantine for the highest aim: to discover the peace and harmony of our true nature.

"Amongst all the activities that we do, we rarely give enough time to sit quietly by ourselves. I would like to introduce to you not just to sit alone, but to guide you into your inner Being.

What you truly are is not merely what we think we are, not merely what we have been brought up to believe we are. Actually, surprisingly, beautifully, we discover a level of peace and natural well-being-ness, joy, and silence. And right here in the depth of our Self, a great calmness you will discover.

This, that we are going to discover today, you will see that it is always here. That is the most wonderful thing about this."

Begin Discovering Your True Self Today

“I would love you to see yourself as I see you. I encourage and invite you to the same level of living true to yourself.” 

In this truly inspiring Satsang, Mooji shares the very heart of the pointings and the importance of living and imbibing this Truth. 

“The opportunity is here to wake up! And wake up means to really see without prejudice, to see without distortion, to live in love and truth, with respect and appreciation for each other and this planet, God and the Self.”

Live a Life in Love, Truth and Liberation

Join Mooji on this morning walk, as he shares spontaneous wisdom and guidance, reflecting on important questions such as, ‘What are we here for and what is this life all about?’ 

“One time you will come to see, ‘I have lived with so many people, with so many things. Now I must find the one I cannot live without.’

This one is your own heart. He’s already calling you from within.”

What Is This Life About?

“It’s a blessing that this arose in your heart.”

In this second part of Mooji’s handwritten notebook readings, he shares powerful contemplations about awakening, prayer, death and ways to overcome the ego. 

"When the Self is realised it will be obvious that it was, it is and will always be - perfect, timeless, unchanging and imperishable.”

Moojibaba's Notebook Readings — Part 2

“Today, I don’t just want to talk about peace, I want to show you how to find peace.”

In this New Year’s message of peace, Mooji invites us into a simple discovering to experience the fullness of who we are — the true peace of God within our own heart. 
 
“Today, this moment, you are discovering peace. The peace that is. The love and joy that is. 

If we are seeking to live in a peaceful world, peace must begin inside our own heart.”

During the September Online Retreat, Mooji shares this powerful illustration of the two birds. We are guided to look together with him, and see from our natural state of pure and formless consciousness.

“This is immediate sadhana. Meaning, as you’re looking from your place of stillness, you can verify now. You can see with the eyes of your own intuition and consciousness.

We are looking together, we are verifying together. But the experience is taking place in your being itself. This is the state of the awakened ones."
