Mooji citáty

„Jakmile máš uvnitř sebe touhu, budeš netrpělivě očekávat její naplnění.“

„Když vstoupíš do ohně sebeodhalení, tak tento oheň nespálí tebe, spálí jen to, co nejsi. To, co křičí a kvílí v tomto ohni není to, co doopravdy jsi. Je to jen to, co sis představoval, že jsi. To hoří.“

„Kdybych chtěl sdělit zprávu pro celý svět, řekl bych: „Nemějte starosti vůbec o nic“. Nemusíte někam chodit, abyste našli mír. Nemusíte jít do Indie, abyste našli mír. Protože je přesně tam, kde jste.“

„Láska je naše nejhlubší spojení.“

„Když začnete být velice čistí a prázdní, tak Vesmír sám začne jednat…“

„Když jsi prázdná od všech druhů žádostí, a neznamená to aroganci, znamená to, že jsi v přirozeném stavu bytí, tak pak nepotřebuješ nic, nepotřebuješ být potvrzována, nic dokazovat, dokonce cítíš, že nepotřebuješ být milována.“

„Prázdnota, o které mluvím,
není prázdnota,
kterou si obvykle představujeme.
Není prázdná.
Vaše tělo dál existuje
svým přirozeným způsobem.
Moudrost zůstává.
Pocity přicházejí a odcházejí.
Vše si dál hraje, ale uvnitř je
naprostý klid a vyrovnanost.
Žádné plánování, žádné strategie,
žádná identifikace.
Jenom prostor čistého bytí.
Je to to, co ve skutečnosti jsme,
přestože tomu často nechceme
nebo nemůžeme uvěřit.“

„Touha slibuje mnoho, ale naplňuje málo.“

„Říkáš, že si přeješ se osvobodit ode všech tužeb a očekávání. A skutečně, tato tvá vlastní touha tě rozrušuje. Protože i šlechetné touhy, jako touha zachránit svět nebo být dobrým člověkem nebo dokonce dosáhnout osvobození, tě ve skutečnosti mohou odvrátit od objevení toho, co už je opravdu zde ~ přirozená, nespoutaná naplněnost.“

“Everything you can perceive comes and goes, including your own body. You are the one looking at time, objects, and even thoughts and emotions.”

“Those who discover that reality of their inmost Being enjoy a sense of peace, love, and wisdom as its natural perfume. They experience their essential nature as true freedom.”

“The search for Truth is not about running away from the things of this world but about understanding their ephemeral nature. And more than that, it is about discovering our true nature as an inherent stillness from where even the subtlest movements of phenomena are being perceived.”

“Truth is what we are. It is our essential nature and Being. It is the pure Self, the limitless one, the ultimate reality – it is awareness itself.”

“It is time to leave behind childish attitudes and begin to pay a little more attention to what is really here. This is a time-body, a mortal body, but an immortal presence is moving in it. While the body is still warm, use this bodily life to rediscover your timeless Being.”

“Apply yourself fully to the introspection offered here. It is good for all seekers... This self-inquiry is your internal work. Internal work – eternal satisfaction. Internal work revealing timeless Self.”

“Self-inquiry begins by looking to discover whether the personal identity, with all its conditioning and idiosyncrasies, is who we truly are. And it ends as a mirror in which the timeless is reflected.”

“Identification with the body is a state that consciousness needs to experience for a while. But eventually, grace will compel consciousness to transcend this severe limitation and guide it home to its original nature.”

“What we are is consciousness. The body is the vehicle through which consciousness can taste experiencing. And in the human form, consciousness has the capacity and opportunity to realise its own source and thus come into a direct experience of this.”

“Regardless of whether the object of perception is physical and can thus be measured for colour, shape, and size, or whether what is being perceived is something more subtle like thought, feeling, and sensation, all are phenomena.”

“All that we refer to as being ours – our body, our mind, our emotions – is not what we are, essentially.”

“The concept I am the body is the core belief we adopt very early on... We take ourselves to be a particular body with a unique personality, and this perspective remains with us as we live our lives.”

“From a young age, we pick up many false assumptions about the world, about life, and about exactly who we are living life.”

“Here you are invited into the direct experience of that timeless reality through the method of self-inquiry, which forms the essence of this book.”

“We have become unaware of the magnificence of our true nature on account of our upbringing, conditioning, and education, all of which paint a very different picture of who we are – and all of which we believe.”

“Spirituality is the search for perfect understanding, for Self-discovery, for Truth, and it must take place right where you are. The Truth that you are searching for must already be right here, for it is timelessly present.”

“We all start out looking at life from the particular perspective of our upbringing, which provides us with assumptions about who we are. For most of us, this culturally imparted point of view simply remains our perspective as we move through life.”
