of the individual who expresses one good thought."

How to uproot fear and anxiety

51.  Question:  How to uproot or end the weariness, fear, and anxiety that arise during meditation?      Bhagavan:  Find out to whom these questions occur. By conducting this inquiry, these things will disappear.  These things are impermanent, they are just more thoughts.  Do not pay attention to them.  When there is knowledge of duality, fear arises. Fear only comes when you think that there are "others" apart from you.  If you direct your mind towards the Self, fear and anxiety will go away.      In your present state, when the mind is agitated, if you remove one kind of fear, another will rise up and there will be no end to them.  It is a laborious task to pluck the leaves off a tree one by one.  The "I" feeling is the root of all thoughts.  If you destroy the root, the leaves and branches will wither away.  Instead of forming bad habits and then taking medicine for them, it is better to see that such bad habits are not formed.

Our real nature is always experienced

Question: What is the truth that I have to attain? Please explain it to me.

Bhagavan: What we have to attain, and what is desired by everyone, is endless happiness. Although we seek to attain it in various ways, it is [usually incorrectly looking] to something to be sought or attained as a new experience. [However] our real nature [in its purity] is the "I" feeling, which is always experienced [inwardly] by everyone. It is within us and nowhere else. Although we are always experiencing it, our minds are wandering, always seeking it [outside of us], thinking in ignorance that it is something apart from us. This is like a person saying with his own tongue that he has no tongue.

Question: If this is so, why did so many spiritual practices come to be created?

Bhagavan: The sadhanas (spiritual practices) arose only to get rid of the thought that it (the Self) is something to be newly attained. The root of the illusion is the thought that ignores the Self and thinks instead, "I am this body." Once this thought rises, it expands in no time into several thousand thoughts and conceals the Self.

Why do people act this way?

"People are, as is our consciousness of them."

Tune in correctly and results arrrive

"Suppose it is seven o'clock and you want to catch a certain

television program coming on at eight. You can tune your set

to the correct channel _now_. Then, all you need do is wait for

it to come to you. You can relax in the knowledge that you are

correctly tuned in, that the program _must_ eventually be yours

to experience. You need have no care nor responsibility for

its arrival. Finally, of its own accord, and at the right

time, your desire appears. [Mental Picture 2]

Likewise, with rich results - as long as we are correctly tuned

in, by using Mental Pictures, we need not concern ourselves at

all with results. They arrive all by themselves, easily and

naturally."

Your Supreme Existence

"Your supreme existence is as close as your remembrance of it.

Once more, your supreme existence is a close as your remembrance

of it. So we’re going to have to study what it means to recall who

we really are."

   from a talk given 2/2/1992

Find that which is not a doer.

The mind wants to take credit for Awakening. It wants to turn it into an achievement. By being the achiever of enlightenment it retains its identity, pride, separation and deceitfulness.
Find that which is not a doer, not an achiever.
Find That which simply Is.

~ Mooji

All controversies are worthless

All controversies about creation, the nature of the universe, evolution, the purpose of God etc, are useless. They do not lead to true happiness. People try to find out about things which are outside themselves before they try to find out "Who am I?" Only by this means can they gain happiness -- not by understanding the whole universe, for the Self is happiness. 

It's your creation.

"See nothing out there but your sum total beingness. There is in actuality nothing out there but your beingness.  If you see anything other than your beingness, you're seeing wrongly. You're in an illusion. It's your creation. If you try that, you will discover bit by bit that everything you're seeing, you created. The more you look that way, the more you'll see it, the more you'll have it. In line with that there is no objectivity because it is all you, your creation, your doing, your beingness. So try to see no objectivity but only subjectivity. I am.  That's it. I am that I am. Thou art that which thou art seeking."

You are already realized

M: The feeling, "I have not realized," is the obstruction to realization. In fact, you are already realized; there is nothing to realize. If there were, it would have to be something new, not existing so far, that would occur sometime in the future.
