These are personal notes and links regarding the dissolution of one's Self-Image --i.e. one's ego. The path is non-duality. Life itself has brought me here. These notes are reminders of my direction, and my lack of direction. They are to strengthen my focus on what ACIM calls "the real world" i.e. "that which does not change." While these notes are written for me, if you find them helpful, you may feel at home to read any of them.

Presence
Be in the state of Presence.
The person exists in the state of complexities.
Presence exists in the realm of divinity.

Learning
All is Shiva (Consciousness), The Avadhuta Gita
Mooji spontaneously asks someone to read randomly some verses in the book, The Avadhuta Gita. What follows after these beautiful words is a very powerful and joyful Satsang in which Mooji shows how all expressions, without any exceptions, are only the play of the 'Limitless One', the one Self. All sense of separation is wiped away from the mind, just in the hearing of these liberating words.
---------------------

Introduction
The word Avadhuta refers to a mystic who has done away with worldly concerns and standard social etiquette, at least in his or her heart. Such personalities are considered to be free to 'roam the earth like a child'. An avadhuta does not identify with their body or mind. Such a person is said to be pure consciousness in human form. Avadhuts play a significant role in many Yoga, Vedanta and Bhakti traditions.Dattatreya, the Author
It has been mentioned that Dattatreya was the teacher of the sage Patanjali. Be that as it may: The main work attributed to Dattatreya is the Avhadhuta Upanishad. It describes the wherabouts of a free (liberated) soul, one who is much uninterested in the dogmas of others, or habits, rituals, and surface morality too at times.The Avadhut Gita
The Avadhut Gita is . . . meant for the use of those advanced students of Indian metaphysics who have learned self-control to an applicable extent . . . [Mod.]A mantra(m) is a Vedic formula, the repetition of which, according to approved rules, induces spiritual consciousness, and also psychic powers.The higher form of prayer consists of feelingly singing of Brahman in terms of non-duality, [for example,]" I am Brahman," and [it may] bring before us the great vision of Truth [it is held] . . .
Added: It is perhaps poetically declared in the Manu Samhita "An offering, consisting of muttered prayers, is ten times more efficacious than a sacrifice performed according to the rules (of the Veda); a (prayer) which is inaudible (to others) surpasses it a hundred times, and the mental (recitation of sacred texts) a thousand times." [Chap 2, v 85]. Add a pinch of salt, allowing leeway too. Depending on the required skills and the conditions, effects may vary.]'Brahman' comes from the root 'brih', expand - also called Sat, Chit and Ananda, i.e., (Absolute) Existence, Intelligence and Bliss (joy).)
His many gurus
"Salutations to you, Sage, Kindly tell us what guru has given you the great knowledge which has made you perfect in wisdom, full of peace, and devoted to the good of all living beings."- From water he learned purity and the taste of tastelessness. "As water is sweet and pure, so is Atman [the divine Self]. Man should manifest sweetness and purity in his conduct. I have therefore taken water as one of my Gurus," he said.
- "Patience, forgiveness, supporting others without expectation of gratitude I have learned from my Guru, the earth."
- "The wind blows everywhere, over the flower-beds, deserts, marshes, palaces and prisons, without being attached to any of them, without preference or dislike. So, I, an Avadhut, go everywhere, scattering my blessings of peace, without being attached to anyone. My Guru, the wind, has taught me this lesson."
- "In the all-pervading space there exist clouds, stars, planets, dust-storms, and so on, but it is not touched by any of them. So is Atman, which, pervading all bodies of men and animals, of saints, sages, kings, madmen, sinners, and paupers, is untainted by any of them. So do I feel, having learned this lesson from space, my Guru."
- "As the moon is perfect, in spite of its waning and waxing, which do not exist in it, so is Atman ever perfect, in spite of its seeming imperfections. This is what the moon, my Guru, has taught me."
- "As the sun through its rays absorbs water from the earth, only to give it back in a cool and pure form, so ought a Mahatma to take the things of the world, not for his own sake, but in order to give them back in a richer and better form. This is what my Guru, the sun, has taught me."
- "Though thousands of rivers empty themselves into the sea, yet it remains within its limits; so remains undisturbed the mind of the knower of God, though objects of all kinds pour themselves into it. Thus, the sea, my Guru, has instructed me."
- "From the arrow-maker I have learned the value of concentration. In a certain town there lived an arrow-maker, who devoted his full attention to his occupation. Once he was beating the point of an arrow, when the king and his procession went by the street. He was so attentive to his work that he knew nothing of the king's passing, and when they asked him how he liked the music of the procession he said, 'What procession? When did it pass?' So ought we to concentrate on the Truth that no external object or event should disturb us."
Chapter 1
1. By the grace of God the Brahmins above all men are inspired with the disposition to non-duality (unity of the Self with God), which relieves them of the great fear.Reader, do you exist?4. Verily the one Self is all, free from differentiation and non-differentiation. Neither can it be said, "It is" nor "It is not." What a great mystery.
How can I speak of Him?
Who Shiva is I do not know,
How can I worship Him?
Like absolute space is my nature.
In me is neither unity nor variety,
The cause of imagination too is absent in me.
How can I be self-realizable?
Endless is my nature, nothing else exists.
Absolute Truth is my nature, nothing else exists.
Neither am I slayer nor the slain
Note: In addition to waking, dreaming and dreamless sleep, Indians reckon with "the fourth" (state), also called Turiya. Beyond it is the . . . which is beyond words and common experience. - TK.
Chapter 2
The Avadhut said:
Note: "If that is so, then why this song at all?" asked a mirthful lad.
Chapter 3
1. How shall I worship that great AtmanWhich is neither personal nor impersonal.
Taintless, above love and aversion, uncreated,
All pervasive, of the form of the universe,
Having no attributes, yet not attributeless
That all-bliss Shiva, my Self.
In my own Self and by my Self?
I have no colours, white or yellow;
Eternal Shiva am I.
Free from smoke, and smokeless am I,
Without a lamp, and lightless am I,
Equanimity am I, like a sun ever risen.
As having desires? The Absolute cannot
Be described in terms of conditions;
How can I speak of myself?
I am neither with an essence,
Nor am I without an essence.
Space-like all equanimity am I.
5. How shall I say that non-duality"I am not without an essence," then . . . (For everyday affirmations one is advised to hold on to the positive things, visualize and repeat them, and steer out of negations.)
Is all this creation, or that, or that?
Even if it be duality, then too I cannot
Attribute creation or dissolution to It.
How can the Eternal, the All
Be expressed in any way?
Space-like, all-bliss am I.
It comes not, and It goes not;
Without a beginning and without an end;
Neither higher nor lower is It;
That Truth absolute, space-like,
Immortality-giving knowledge am I.
Are as space, and so also their objects.
Know that the One is taintless,
The One is neither bound nor free.
That all-pervasive ever-blissful Shiva,
Immortality-giving knowledge am I.
Which is experienced, is not Atman;
The object of meditation,
Hard to concentrate upon, is not Atman;
That which is near, and that which is far, far away,
Is not Atman. Space-like, all-bliss
Shiva am I, Shiva am I.
Without pain am I, I burn up sufferings;
Bodiless, homeless am I, and yet I burn up these,
All equanimity, space-like am I.
Contentment and pleasures exist not in me;
Bondage and ignorance are not in me;
Space-like, absolute Shiva am I.
Nor the known.
It is not accessible to inference.
Words cannot describe
This Consciousness Absolute.
The mind is lost in Its majesty.
How can It be explained to you?
As space-like I AM-realization giving immortality
[Space-like immortality-giving knowledge am I].
Neither is It inner nor outer.
It is Truth transcendental.
It cannot be said "It was all before."
Verily nothing exists but Atman.
And that space-like immortality-giving
Knowledge am I.
Free from attachment and aversion,
Free from imperfections am I,
Fate and providence exist not in me.
Eternally free from the sufferings of the world,
Verily, space-like immortality-giving
Knowledge am I.
Exist not in Atman,
How can It be the Fourth?
Free from past, present and future
How can the cardinal points exist in IT?
Eternal peace, space-like transcendental
Truth am I.
Neither wife nor child.
Birth and death I do not know.
The mind is not my own.
Eternal peace, space-like transcendental
Peace am I.
Have no place in Atman.
Neither Paradise nor Heaven exist in Atman.
The one taintless transcendental Truth am I.
Does not apply to Atman.
How can it be said "When all is subtracted
Atman alone remains"?
It is symbolical but not a symbol;
Yet even this cannot be said of Atman.
Space-like, the water of immortality am I.
Nor is its glamour mine.
Deceit and hypocrisy, truth and untruth
Have no place in me.
Space-like, immortality-giving knowledge am I.
Chapter 4
1. Nothing can be added or taken away from the Universal Consciousness. It cannot be invoked or worshipped with flowers and leaves. Meditations and mantras cannot reach It. How could It be worshipped as Shiva? - for in It there are neither distinctions nor unity.NOTE: Buddhi: The higher mind which includes the discriminative faculty and intuitive reason. It may also mean intellect.8. In me exist not birth, death, purity, impurity, poison or the water of immortality. Verily I am free even from the taint of Nirvana. I cannot speak of the "Third" or the "Fourth".

Chapter 5
1. The syllable OM spoken is the essence of the lower and the higher knowledge. It is Brahman, space-like. There is neither existence nor non-existence in this world. Brahman is ever free from duality.
NOTE: It is a sort of existential definition.6. As there is no jar, there is no jar space. As there is no jiva body, no conditioning medium, there is no jiva. The cause and effect that produce conditions do not exist in Atman. Why then do you cry, my mind?
Chapter 6
1. The whole universe is a projection of the mind; therefore it is a mode of the mind. The true nature of the mind is bliss, and when the mind is stilled, bliss absolute is revealed.
Chapter 7
1. When as a pilgrim, I began to journey towards You, then my little notions of all-pervasiveness of Atman died.I am the infinite in my soul;
I can find no beginning, no end.
All is my Self . . "
here is a good translation to check:Note to: "I can find ... no end": See if you can find one right here, where the song ends.

The Main Thing Missing in Your life
Too much thinking. To much person. Your well, which is the spring of life, seems to have dried but It Is not dead. But it seems difficult to bring things across to you. It is as though you are ignoring me. Jesus said to some of the teachers of the Law and the Pharisees, the religious authorities of the day: 'You sieve out a flea, yet you swallow a camel,' meaning that you pay attention to tiny, stupid things, but the big things you miss altogether. The big thing's You. You are missing from You. You are the main thing missing from your life. You think other things are missing but X Is You that is missing. Don't avoid your Self.

empty to Grace
you become a perfect vessel for the
manifestation and embodiment of His grace.
But while you are still nurturing your identity,
the light has little chance.
You tell me, ‘Until I get there, show me what to do now.’
I say, No, because then I am colluding with you
to cheat you out of your timelessness.
And this I cannot do.
I don’t want you to cheat yourself.
The solution to all sorrows is ever present within you,
but something is turning away from this chance.
Don’t trust that.
A single liberated being sheds enough light
to raise the consciousness of countless beings.
Who is that one?
Could it not be you?

Not Separate
“Anyone who rediscovers the Self your heart will be full of gratitude.
Gratitude is your truest response, because you have earned your salvation.
To be free from the tyranny of delusion,
To come back to a state of emptiness.
Not the emptiness that the mind is afraid of
The true emptiness where,
There is no one planning any existence
There is no one being peaceful
There is no one being aware
There is only the awareness and you are that awareness.
And it is so vividly clear for you that all the schemes of the mind and all of that ‘They cannot touch you.’
It’s like a dog barking at a flying bird.
The minds argh argh argh and the bird of freedom is untouched.”
“The seeds of Grace are already planted inside you.
The posture of your heart and attention should be always just to say:
‘Yes, rid me of ego and merge me with You’.
That’s you little work and keep quiet and trust and see..”
Mooji ~ from the Video “This Is It! – The Final Satsang in Rishikesh” ~ 30th March 2015
Eternity
"Eternity is not a long time; rather, it is another dimension. It is that dimension to which time-thinking shuts us. And so there never was a creation. Rather, there is a continuous creating going on. This energy is pouring into every cell of our being right now, every board and brick of the buildings we sit in, every grain of sand and wisp of wind."
Joseph Campbell, Myths of Light
Presence and knowing
III. Perception versus Knowledge
T-3.III.1. We have been emphasizing perception, and have said very little about knowledge as yet. 2 This is because perception must be straightened out before you can know anything. 3 To know is to be certain. 4 Uncertainty means that you do not know. 5 Knowledge is power because it is certain, and certainty is strength. 6 Perception is temporary. 7 As an attribute of the belief in space and time, it is subject to either fear or love. 8 Misperceptions produce fear and true perceptions foster love, but neither brings certainty because all perception varies. 9 That is why it is not knowledge. 10 True perception is the basis for knowledge, but knowing is the affirmation of truth and beyond all perceptions.
-from the state of presence, we know intuitively. Their is no doubt. It has nothing to do with perception
T-3.III.2. All your difficulties stem from the fact that you do not recognize yourself, your brother or God.
-we are the Presence rathere than the body/mind, see this now
2 To recognize means to "know again," implying that you knew before. 3 You can see in many ways because perception involves interpretation, and this means that it is not whole or consistent. 4 The miracle, being a way of perceiving, is not knowledge.
-we do not question in the stae of Presence
5 It is the right answer to a question, but you do not question when you know. 6 Questioning illusions is the first step in undoing them. 7 The miracle, or the right answer, corrects them. 8 Since perceptions change, their dependence on time is obvious. 9 How you perceive at any given time determines what you do, and actions must occur in time. 10 Knowledge is timeless, because certainty is not questionable. 11 You know when you have ceased to ask questions.
--in Presence, one knows. We do not have questions. We are mindless. The mind is not us.
T-3.III.3. The questioning mind perceives itself in time, and therefore looks for future answers. 2 The closed mind believes the future and the present will be the same. 3 This establishes a seemingly stable state that is usually an attempt to counteract an underlying fear that the future will be worse than the present. 4 This fear inhibits the tendency to question at all.
T-3.III.4. True vision is the natural perception of spiritual sight, but it is still a correction rather than a fact. 2 Spiritual sight is symbolic, and therefore not a device for knowing. 3 It is, however, a means of right perception, which brings it into the proper domain of the miracle. 4 A "vision of God" would be a miracle rather than a revelation. 5 The fact that perception is involved at all removes the experience from the realm of knowledge. 6 That is why visions, however holy, do not last.
T-3.III.5. The Bible tells you to know yourself, or to be certain. 2 Certainty is always of God.
-know yourself as awareness, that which can see even presence
0 3 When you love someone you have perceived him as he is, and this makes it possible for you to know him. 4 Until you first perceive him as he is you cannot know him. 5 While you ask questions about him you are clearly implying that you do not know God. 6 Certainty does not require action.
-certainty and knowledge, like presence does not need action. Knothing is needed.
7 When you say you are acting on the basis of knowledge, you are really confusing knowledge with perception. 8 Knowledge provides the strength for creative thinking, but not for right doing. 9 Perception, miracles and doing are closely related. 10 Knowledge is the result of revelation and induces only thought. 11 Even in its most spiritualized form perception involves the body. 12 Knowledge comes from the altar within and is timeless because it is certain. 13 To perceive the truth is not the same as to know it.
-knowing the truth is being it. There is no separate self.
T-3.III.6. Right perception is necessary before God can communicate directly to His altars, which He established in His Sons. 2 There He can communicate His certainty, and His knowledge will bring peace without question. 3 God is not a stranger to His Sons, and His Sons are not strangers to each other. 4 Knowledge preceded both perception and time, and will ultimately replace them.
-presence preceded thought too... Validate this now.
5 That is the real meaning of "Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end," and "Before Abraham was I am." 6 Perception can and must be stabilized, but knowledge isstable. 7 "Fear God and keep His commandments" becomes "Know God and accept His certainty."
-know presence as the constant (god) and accept knowledge (relinquish ego)
T-3.III.7. If you attack error in another, you will hurt yourself. 2 You cannot know your brother when you attack him. 3 Attack is always made upon a stranger. 4 You are making him a stranger by misperceiving him, and so you cannot know him. 5 It is because you have made him a stranger that you are afraid of him. 6 Perceive him correctly so that you can know him. 7 There are no strangers in God's creation. 8 To create as He created you can create only what you know, and therefore accept as yours. 9 God knows His children with perfect certainty. 10 He created them by knowing them. 11 He recognizes them perfectly. 12 When they do not recognize each other, they do not recognize Him.
Don't log in
Mind is there in front of you.
Don't log in.
Watch it, it is not you.
Thoughts come and go.
Emotions come and go.
Even presence comes in the waking state,
and in deep sleep vanishes.
You are aware of deep sleep. This is you.
Not a person.

Keep Quiet -Papaji
by knowing you are not the ego that has to keep Quiet.
This Quietness, this Silence,
has nothing to do with talking or not talking
because even when you are not talking
your mind is continually racing everywhere.
- No thought rising from your mind is this Silence.
- Awareness of any object is not it.
- The one who is aware of awareness is it!
your ego.
You must surrender like a river discharging into the Ocean.
Surrender is to discharge your river of separateness
into the ocean of Being, losing your limitations,
and allowing to happen what happens.
You cannot find and kill the mind, it is the ten headed demon.
Chop off a head and another will grow back because
"I am bound" and "I am free" is exactly the same trap.
so only the desire for freedom will help you
because you are what you think.
Think to destroy the mind and mind is a destroyer, not destroyed.
Think of Freedom and you become Freedom.
As persistent as the pain of a toothache, always think of Self,
because if the desire for Freedom is continuous
then all other habits and distractions will drop away.
ॐ Papaji
throw away your ideas
And right there, there is joy, freedom and lightness.
Strip everything and bring everything to nothing.
Throw your attachments, your desires, your needs road and you are immediately in a state of total novelty. Total wholeness.
Every human being would occasionally need to do this. The serious seeker develops this relentless attitude to free their minds of cholesterol of ego identity. Be in that emptiness and then you see that emptiness is completeness.
And the more you do, the more you rejoice in the effortlessness of everything.
Now ignore the voice of the interpretation-giver, the reporter, the bookkeeper, the mathematician and in a short time you will not want him back. If you want to go all the way, throw everything away.

We are one -Joseph Campbel
is thinking of the relationship of visible things to their source—of a son to a father, of Hamlet to Shakespeare, of himself to the ground of his being—and he comes to the relationship of Jesus, the Son, to God the Father, which is a Christian problem.
It Jesus is God, and his Father is God also, what then is the relationship? Jesus said, "I and my Father are one," and those words brought him to the cross. Sufi mystic al-Hallaj said the same thing, "1 and my Beloved are one," and he too was crucified.
This is the mystic realization: you and that divine Immortal being of beings of which you are a particle, are one. The classical statement of the Idea is "tat teem asi," "you are that," and the famous formula in the Chandogya Upanishad: "you are yourself the divine mystery you wish to know.' "I and my father are one."

Communication
Try to communicate the experience of skiing down a wonderful mountain slope to someone who has never been on skis. Try to communicate the experience of being in love when it happens to people who have never known this experience. It cannot be done.
You can speak only by analogy. For a system of mythological symbols to work it must be operating in the field of a community of people who have essentially analogous experiences; otherwise, nothing is happening there."

Become the watcher of the person
But who are you? I have proven to you that this one you refer to as yourself is not true. I have proven 'you', personally, can never be true. You are born a lie as a person You are only true as the Heart/Presence. You must come to your Heart/Presence because this is the voice this world needs to hear from and longs to see.
For a long time you have been trading as an ego, but here we don't use this currency. The currency here is Presence. These are the options that are available to you: to continue as a person or to recognise the Presence as your real Self.

Mooji: It is the sixth day now.
The retreat ends tomorrow. And I have been pointing you over and over and over to the same thing. I don't want to go through your person again. Enough time has been given to that. Don't talk about the person anymore. The person Is apparently searching for Freedom but Freedom Is from the person, not for the person.
You need to be free of the person, for no person has ever been free.
It's about time you took my words to Heart. I have not come here to work on your terms. Your terms, your concepts, have not worked. Now you speak of arrogance, but I don't acknowledge your arrogance.

Waiting for God
But he is never showing up.
If you are not looking for God as 'other', than what do you see?
Stop putting God in the 'other' place. And now where is God?
Mind cannot breathe here. It needs to go to 'other', for the sense of other sustains mind.
Mind cannot see God and live as mind, therefore mind makes a caricature of him. Him is not him. Him is not her. Him is not 'you' as you.
If you take yourself to be a person, you also are 'other'.
Don't touch 'other' and there is no problem.
Don't touch 'other' and there is no time.
There is neither separation nor union in the Truth. Why should there be union When separation never happened? I don't know who hears my words. I have been waiting to say them. Maybe tonight God wants to hear. Maybe God has been satisfied with the play of 'I' and 'other' for a while but tonight he says, "I have had enough of that game. There are no 'others' now."

altered states
most people are already in one of the more wild altered states
of consciousness. It's called egoic state of consciousness.
It's a wildly altered state of consciousness.
It gets you to perceive things that aren't there.
It gets you to see enemies where there aren't any.
It gets you to see dualities where there aren't any.
It gets you to have things like a self-image
when there isn't a 'self' there to the begin with.
It gets you to have certain thoughts about yourself
when in actuality the only thing that could be called a 'self' at all
is simply the thought you have about it.
It's about as advanced as you are going to get. It is existence, you know, doing its damnedest, its best job at altering consciousness.
And yet in spirituality somehow, spirituality got associated with altered states of consciousness. You can alter your state of consciousness.
Lots of the types of spirituality the people practice,
they'll alter your state of consciousness.
You can chant God's name for four or five hours,
you'll notice your consciousness starts to alter, change.
You'll feel different, things will look different.
All sorts of things you can do to alter your state of consciousness.
But the funny thing is, enlightenment has nothing to do with any of that. Enlightenment is the unaltered state of consciousness.
Consciousness needs no alteration to see that everything is One.
Since everything IS One you don't need the altered state of consciousness to perceive that everything is One.
You need the altered state of consciousness to perceive
that everything is actually more than One,
like two or three or four or five or ten or a thousand."

Keep quiet
Recognise the natural silence of your own Self.
Silence is not a behavior.
Silence is not a practice.
It is the natural perfume of being.
Trying to be still is not stillness.
Find that stillness inside, which simply Is. There is no one to practice it. It can only be recognized. It is here. It is not hiding. It is not hurried.
Simply stop identifying with the past, future, present or with any self-image.
Be open to being nothing. No thing.
So that Internally you are simply like a space.
But this is not an inert space, but a space full of aliveness.
Still, don't define yourself as aliveness. Don't define yourself at all.
Simply remain in natural Self-awareness.

Defence is attack -ACIM
Beloved,
don't be a warrior, just be yourself.
Don’t waste energy preparing for this mind-battle.
You are sharpening your sword
to kill dragons that don’t exist.
The more you think about them,
the more you empower illusions
and become deluded by them.
And then you are compelled to do battle
with an imagined enemy;
one created by your own projection,
arising out of your own fear and
appearing inside your mind alone.
In truth, man can only fight against himself.
So the way is not to fight,
rather, be in the fullness of your Peace

The person is always late
Nothing Happens To You Ever www.mooji.org/audio.html#nothinghappens
The person is always late because its tendency is to keep linking to the past. It does not adapt to the freshness of now.
Whenever you look Into the mirror it never shows you a face of the past.
The consciousness is just like that, it is always fresh.
A Spontaneous Satsang recorded at Monte Sahaja.
Freedom -Mooji
"So, the freedom of which you have spoken, is the freedom from being someone?"
Mooji 'Yes. Ultimately, it is freedom from even the concept of freedom. It is the end of striving. We put all our attention, efforts and energies into becoming the best someone we can be. That is natural, it is the whole story of mankind. But it is not freedom. By all means, live the highest expression you can.
Changing what you feel does not serve Truth.
Follow your heart's promptings, but do not take the expression to be a measurement or definition of the Self.
Enjoy with gratitude your life as a gift from life, es an expression of God, as the dance of the cosmos while remaining throughout as the formless seer.
The sage looks into a mirror at the pictures appearing as himself, but he is not confused. He remains as the unalterable being In the shrine of emptiness."

Be empty

Give up the idea that you are your body and you will be the Imperishable Self. But don't tell anybody about it. The mind cannot bear these types of words. But then it doesn't really exist.
Fall in love with emptiness. Fall in love with love but don't be a love story. Then you will experience your existence. You will feel like you are Space moving about in space. Tremendous love will be with you and unspeakable Peace.. Unfolding Happiness.
You will be comfortable knowing that nobody can understand you. Nobody ever has nor have you understood anybody and yet, in a strange way, you know every living being.
You know every living being. When you look at their eyes, you know that who is looking through them, is you.
Your attention is your magic...
From Bernard Werber, Le Livre Secret des Fourmis,
which quotes the Encyclopedia of the absurd and the absolute.
Mooji -on being a body
Mooji:
I keep saying you are not that which can die, but you can experience being that which will die.
I wonder if you follow?
Because some beings, you know, we are winding down, so I really want sometimes to be blunt when I see the dedication that we give to the noise in the mind, to present your life like its some kind of tabloid event.
I think, "My God! How unworthy to give such attention to such things! Don't be so spineless! How great you are! How great you are! kick these habits! Don't be the body.
The body is here, its an instrument through which the Divine can taste experiencing. Enjoy, but don't cling to it because its made out of organic material and it will pass. Why cling to that? Why cling to that which in a short time is going to be decayed material; congealed blood, pus, smelling gases. What is that? That will die! Why cling to that? Why bring your thoughts to that? It is not a curse, but have the courage to face these truths, these actualities.
This is not you. Its just your "spacesuit". Don't be so tender. I used to tell you that one of my favorite plants is a plant called the Buddleia. In England we have a lot of it. This plant is not going to win the Chelsea Flower Show. It grows anywhere in the wild. You will see it even on the Railway stations, on the bricks. Its growing out of the bricks. It doesn't even need any soil. It grows like this. I don't think many people are planting Buddleia.
It just grows. It grows on a rooftop, on the side of a building...anywhere, it can grow. But when it flowers, all the butterflies come from everywhere! They go mad for it! Be like this. Don't just be a daffodil that needs water and a careful place to be.
Be this Buddleia Being. Be robust! Don't be requiring, requiring.
