  • My #UnderTheSkin podcast with the great spiritual teacher #Mooji. You can listen to my weekly podcast over on Luminary - get it here: luminary.link/russell
    Mooji is a renowned spiritual teacher, who, for over 20 years, has been guiding countless seekers worldwide in search of true happiness, peace and freedom.
    Mooji’s way of teaching is direct and compassionate, encouraging that Self-discovery need not be difficult. He teaches that the true nature of human beings is not a personal self or ego but pure, formless awareness.
    Mooji claims that when this is fully grasped, delusion and suffering come to an end and is replaced by a lasting peace and pure love. His talks, called Satsang, bring seekers into the experiential recognition of their true Self-and all with his characteristic humour, wisdom and love.
    His teachings are widely available online, and more info can be found at mooji.org.

    I did the exercise, and I was able to answer all the questions. I felt as if I was within the mist of whatever it was. When Mooji asked, are you apart from it, my answer was no; I was within. I finally felt that I was one with myself. This was a wonderful feeling. I felt myself hugging myself. This was an extraordinary moment for me. When I began the exercise, I did not imagine feeling such an experience. Thank you so much for allowing me to have this experience. I so appreciate this. When I felt the embrace of myself hugging myself, I cried. It seems so weird to say this, but this is how I felt. I really enjoyed this interview.

    Osho called this higher sense "the watcher". It is so easy to experience this. When you are experiencing high emotion, eg anger, you can step outside of yourself and hear yourself ranting and their is this peaceful part of you watching you, detached from the emotion. Almost like watching a movie.

    This must be the most powerfull content i've ever watched on youtube about self realization. The meditation was very clear. This emptiness behind everything, which isn't even emptiness or behind anything. Its just all there is. And not "some thing" but a state that needs to be experienced. And it lights up. Our inner nature of ourselves.

      although pointing people to awareness is a good thing, "gurus" like mooji are actually harmful. because instead of teaching how to INTEGRATE and PROCESS emotions and past trauma for the ego FROM the awareness, they teach people to essentially ignore their unhealed ego/subpersonalities and escape into that empty awareness instead. the problem is that you CAN'T live a full human life from there. you HAVE to integrate the awareness into your emotional life too otherwise you'll be spiritually bypassing (ignoring and suppressing your emotional experiences and "transcending" without truly healing, which is just a ticking timebomb waiting to happen). this is why spiritual cults and shit get formed and why a member of mooji's ashram committed suicide yet the members just brushed it off. the members of those cults have been trained to keep escaping from their trauma and just "ignore" the mind instead of properly processing and healing!!! and mooji is likely doing the same himself, which is why there are so many reports of him emotionally and verbally abusing his students!!!

    What helped me a lot with my identifications was cognitively restructuring my belief in them by asking myself "Who would I be if I didn't possess X [the identification]." For instance, even with my most negative attributes that were hurting me, knowingly, I had to ask myself who would I be without them. Here is an example, "Who would I be if I wasn't so controlling?" "I would be calmer, more loving, and open to others." This helped me release my negative identifications - by proving to myself that I would benefit from releasing them. Cognitive restructuring is a necessary part of the recovery process, I think.

And even though the reason is something from the past, I’m impressed by how persuasive, strong, debilitating, numbing, and things like that it can be. It’s grip is incredible. Ratio can’t seem to fix it. I’m so glad for you that you can simply release a thought by stating “who would I be without x”. Thanks for sharing

      although pointing people to awareness is a good thing, "gurus" like mooji are actually harmful. because instead of teaching how to INTEGRATE and PROCESS emotions and past trauma for the ego FROM the awareness, they teach people to essentially ignore their unhealed ego/subpersonalities and escape into that empty awareness instead. the problem is that you CAN'T live a full human life from there. you HAVE to integrate the awareness into your emotional life too otherwise you'll be spiritually bypassing (ignoring and suppressing your emotional experiences and "transcending" without truly healing, which is just a ticking timebomb waiting to happen). this is why spiritual cults and shit get formed and why a member of mooji's ashram committed suicide yet the members just brushed it off. the members of those cults have been trained to keep escaping from their trauma and just "ignore" the mind instead of properly processing and healing!!! and mooji is likely doing the same himself, which is why there are so many reports of him emotionally and verbally abusing his students!!!

He's a man that loves the light upon him and being adored, he's not a mental health expert nor qualified acharya.

      ​@@truesight91 You certainly know a lot about someone youve never met (yet you can't even speak directly to me, lul). To choose such assumptious response over proper vada, seems like a lack of the qualities proper sadhana chatushtaya ideally builds in us.
      Lul, the irony, youd think if Mooji was as you say you'd speak a bit more mindful towards others. Yet you speak, literally, just as any kultie would.
      Question, if Mooji is such a humbled avadhut, then why does he find it necessary to delete videos over the years that showed him in a poor light? Why was he even once banned from Ramanashrama in Tiruvannamalai? What about the dths (r.i.p.) at his camp that he basically brushed over online without much of a word? How about the necklaces of himself that he once had on his website, only to remove (during a time he was being accused for Osho similarities). How about the fact that Ramana intentionally never left a parampara, nor was he apart of any sampradaya - and yet these modern western figures *constantly* exploit his name as though he did leave such lineage (probably definitely not for marketing reasons)?
      The list goes on, really.
      But just bypass all that, i guess?
      The proclivity for yall to bypass any words of concern by looking down from the high-horse you've created, is simply yet another one of the factors people point at this corner for.

About 3 years ago I had an idea to preach to the world in a modern way about Mooji, Eckhart, Alan Watts, Sadhguru, Abraham Hicks et al and to convey their messages in a modern more comprehendible in some cases relatable sense and this series does it. Bravo sir. I've only just finished my book trying to achieve the same, Mooji's story about "The Kings Elbow" is a chapter of its own.........such a great way to get this out there.......amazing combo between u 2.

    Russell Brand this is the best interview ever. Mooji is my Guru. I have listened to his videos for years. He is the only person that taught me how to meditate. Previously I was unable to sit still and quite my mind and was not able to meditate. His exercises taught me how to meditate easily and without effort. I can testify that his teachings work. I am happier now than I have ever been in my life. I was able to heal and get rid of a mental addiction due to childhood psychological abuse, and because of Mooji's meditation of being the observer not the person, I was able to realize God as a beingness and Consciousness, not the body, not the mind, not a person. I was able to realize that I was the God Self observing the body and the mind. You are the Observer not the thing Observed. That realization is what makes you feel free, happy, and at peace. It gives you power over your life. You take control of your body and mind, not the body controling you. When you realize you are not the person your addiction and problems dissapear into nontthingness. When you Realizing you are the empty space, a presence, The Issness, not a person, the problem is no longer real, but was just an illusion, a false idenity, of no importance, you loose interest, and no longer focus on the problem. You realize it is not a thing just a construct, like a cloud that dissapates. You become the Observer, Not the thing you observed. You realize you are not the problem, you are just watching from an empty space of consciousness. You cannot be the thing you observe if you are watching it. Anything you can see or observe is other than the Self. This is why Mooji says Watch, just Observe. Self Realization is an inner awareness, a knowing, feeling in a space of just being, consciousness. If you are not that which you are looking at you feel free, no fear, you are in control of your thoughts and feelings naturally, not by force. This consciousness is God. The God within. If God is Omnipresent, that means every where, then God is in you. There is no space that God does not exist. "As above, So below", Jesus said "Ye Are Gods" '"Repent or Perish" which means without self realization, in your forgetfulness, you will suffer. Ignorance is the cause of all suffering. To remember your God self is the cause of everlasting joy, peace, happiness. In your ignorance you use your God Mind to create negativity, and suffering. "As a Man thinketh in his heart, so is he" "Your Faith can make you whole". We all have the power of God waiting to be discovered, but we have the free will to create our reality. The God Self is eternal, always was, and always is, eternal, never changing, perfect,blissful, joyful and happy. Every THING changes, but God remains the same. The world, your body, your life, all changes, is born and dies, but the God self remains eternal and perfect. When you realize this truth you will have a security, and fullfillment that will last. God created the universe to experience this reality, forget himself, then remember himself for the purpose of extending, expanding, and creating bliss, joy, and happiness. Suffering is just a catalist to finding your God Self. Ignorance is the cause of all suffering. The purpose of life is to achieve Self Realization. Because in your forgetfulness you will suffer. Only after achieving Self Realization will you find everlasting happiness. God cannot and does not suffer. It is the Man, the person that suffers. Jesus said " Seek Ye First The Kingdom of Heaven and all else will be added unto you." Jesus also said "The Kingom of Heaven is Within"

Because there is nothing from above & below, out there or in there, left or right.. Because of nothing, we create something out of nothing as we had tasted this/that "something" b4. Or maybe this is just a lonely dead looping solar system that eat itselves into the blackhole.

      although pointing people to awareness is a good thing, "gurus" like mooji are actually harmful. because instead of teaching how to INTEGRATE and PROCESS emotions and past trauma for the ego FROM the awareness, they teach people to essentially ignore their unhealed ego/subpersonalities and escape into that empty awareness instead. the problem is that you CAN'T live a full human life from there. you HAVE to integrate the awareness into your emotional life too otherwise you'll be spiritually bypassing (ignoring and suppressing your emotional experiences and "transcending" without truly healing, which is just a ticking timebomb waiting to happen). this is why spiritual cults and shit get formed and why a member of mooji's ashram committed suicide yet the members just brushed it off. the members of those cults have been trained to keep escaping from their trauma and just "ignore" the mind instead of properly processing and healing!!!

As indivuduals with free will we can either accept or reject Mooj's teaching. If he is not part of the answers you seek or need, simply walk away. He does not purport to be God or Messiah and is not here to bear the burdens of our troubled souls.
