Learn Meditation

Mooji shares this simple 'escape button' metaphor and guided inquiry to take us beyond mind identification and into our natural joy and freedom.

“Even here in Satsang, you must have an escape button. Where is your escape button from the mind? Stay as the formless witness! 

When you escape you realise, this which you are here, was never trapped. Can you feel the power of it? 

I’ve shown you a very simple way, but you must trust it and apply it.”

Satsang with Mooji

This Is Your Escape Button from the Mind

What would happen if we looked with fresh eyes at the struggles and "impossible situations" that we face every day—and found there four gifts that changed everything?
For decades, Pema Chödrön has brought clarity and heart to the core teachings of the Buddha, helping to make them relevant and useful in our everyday lives. With The Truth of Our Existence, she immerses us in one of Buddhism’s essential distillations of written wisdom known as The Four Marks of Existence.

These marks that shape all of us, teaches Pema Chödrön, are like forgotten gifts waiting to be found. And while they may ring familiar to some, they hold vast layers of often unrealized understanding to both new and seasoned ears alike. In this four-session learning program, Pema Chödrön illuminates for us:

The truth of impermanence and its power to give us strength and courage

The truth of egolessness—how it connects us with others and transforms fear and anger into clarity of vision
The truth about suffering, how we create it, and what to do when it seems unbearable

The truth of peace—that liberation or nirvana is real
How to use the wisdom of this profound sutra to touch the open and abundant expanse in which we truly dwell

With The Truth of Our Existence, Pema Chödrön invites us to see that there is, in reality, "no score to settle," and that we can step out of confusion, frustration, and fear—and into the space of heartful awareness.

The Truth Of Our Existence Sample by Pema Chodron

Why Should We Meditate?

Beloved teacher Pema Chödrön has been at the forefront of spreading awareness of Buddhist practice in the West for nearly four decades. In this excerpt drawn from Ani Pema’s audio program Pure Meditation, she considers why it is that we are drawn to meditation and what we gain from its practice. In the words of Sounds True producer Matt Licata, “Pema has a real gift of reaching beyond tradition and into the heart of the modern person who is yearning for true spiritual awakening. Pema’s description of the radical act of meditation is both inspiring and clarifying.”

Why Should We Meditate - by Pema Chodron

Perfect Just as You Are by Pema Chodron - Sample

If you wish to be set firmly into the heart of Moojibaba’s pointings, this Satsang is for you. From beginning to end, Mooji demonstrates his quintessential pointing — what we are is always just here.

“Mind is telling you ‘near’, but truth is telling you ‘here.’ There is no water to be found in a mirage. If you try to possess Him, He will become like a mirage. If you recognise Him, He will never go away. Awareness is there before ‘before,’ and after ‘after.’”

The Caged Bird Has Flown and Is Now Sitting in the Great Banyan Tree

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

Invitation: Breakthrough

Before we breakthrough, we must face the breakdown. What is breaking down in your life?

When something breaks down, it provide us with an opportunity to observe, respond, grow and breakthrough to a new way of not just surviving, but thriving in life.

In this dance, you are invited to hold the image of what is breaking down in your life. It could be something external in your world, or a long held belief. Let it express itself in your dance. Give it form, give it life, give it the profound opportunity to move through you. Take this opportunity to face it fully.

By giving the breakdown a means to express itself, the nature of its energy can begin to transform, revealing the underlying root cause and/or belief behind it.

If the dance pushes you to the point of breaking down, you are invited to move to the next step.

Embody love and compassion.

Perhaps this expresses itself through your dance as stillness, or a gentle flow, or deeper breathing patterns. However it expresses, envision love and compassion enveloping you and your dance.

Feel all the feels, and hold yourself and the breakdown you have faced with love and courage.

Remember... breakthrough emerges from the breakdown. We’ll see you on the other side.

This set was played as part of an online dance for the Asheville Movement Collective during a period of quarantine and general unrest surrounding Covid-19. With so many of our lives disrupted, it is a potent time to take notice of what is breaking down. I'm grateful for the feedback I received from my fellow AMC facilitators and friends who continue to educate me on the art of mix making and conscious dance. I share this with you with all my heart and loving gratitude. Om Shanti, Shanti Om.

Breakdown to Breakthrough - Asheville Movement Collective - Friday, April 17, 2020 - 1 wave

During this powerful exchange, Mooji receives a request from someone who desires simply to discover his true self. The profound opportunity of this must-see Satsang, is the complete recognition of the timeless truth and with this - lasting happiness and true peace. 

“Just keep recognizing this and it will get deeper and deeper. What you have found now, keep being there. Everything in your life will begin to move in this real harmony. 

Always I am longing to meet somebody like you.”

Mooji, I Only Want to Know Who I Am

“You have studied so many things in life, now I ask you to study yourself. When the ancient ones have said ‘know thyself’, what are they speaking about?”

A beautiful introspection on a morning walk, where Mooji reflects on what it truly means to study oneself and shares powerful guidance on self-inquiry;  pointing us back to our natural place as pure awareness.

“These are questions that come with the quest for awakening to the real. All contemplations, if they are true and successful, come back to the Self.”

Know Thyself — This Is the Highest Knowledge

Mooji shares three easy and simple ways to overcome states of fear and anxiety. As you take a little time for yourself to follow this guidance, you will come back into your natural state of being.

“I have given you a few exercises; make these a part of your day. You can say, ‘These five minutes belong just to myself.’

Just be very present and you can begin to experience the natural vastness of being that is present here.

What I’ve shared with you today is enough, you can just follow this.”

Three Easy Ways to Overcome Fear and Anxiety

Walk with Moojibaba

Mooji shows us how the simple act of saying ‘thank you’ allows us to lose the heavy baggage of the ego and come into a sense of harmony with life. 

"Simply start by saying ‘thank you'. 

Thank you that I’m able to hear words like this inside my heart and to feel a sense of their magnitude of what they point to as the spirit of truth and what I truly am in myself.”
