Satsang with Mooji Poland, 15th Aug 2011
[Questioner] I think I need some help.
[Q.] I am sure I need some help.
[translation into Polish]
[Q.] How to open. [translation]
[Q.] How to open ... [M.] How to open?
[Q.] ... to let you give me the help.
[translation]
[Mooji] Hm. How to open?
[translation]
If you can throw away that idea:
[translation]
how to open, how to open.
[translation]
If you believe it, then it makes you feel you are closed.
[translation]
[Mooji] Your very coming here is a step of openness.
[translation]
So you don't need this thought, 'How to open?'
It is a mischevious thought.
[translation]
[Mooji] You see the power of thoughts.
[translation]
A thought without belief has no power. [translation]
But a thought with belief can start a war. [translation]
There are many thoughts which we hold, [translation]
but they are not serving you. [translation]
They keep you feeling small, trapped. [translation]
[Silence]
[Mooji] And I don't want to say,
Exchange one thought for another thought, even.
[translation]
I say, Stay thought-free.
[translation]
Then you can use thoughts without owning them. [translation]
[Silence]
[Mooji] Hm.
[Mooji] Something feels closed?
[translation]
Yeah.
I remember now, some woman asked me.
[translation]
She said, 'I want to be 100 percent sure.'
[translation]
Yeah. 'I want to be 100 percent sure.'
[translation]
I said to her, Forget about it.
[translation]
It is the mind that says, 'I want to be 100 percent sure.'
[translation]
But it is the mind that creates doubt.
[translation]
So if you believe this,
you will always feel something is missing.
[translation]
It could be half a percent,
but this half percent is going to trouble you.
It is going to be in your head, even when you go to bed.
[translation]
Yeah. Ninety-nine-and-a-half percent is not enough!
[translation]
This is the mind. [translation]
Yeah.
[Mooji] She says, 'I want to be 100 percent sure.'
I am telling you,
give up this idea about being 100 percent sure;
it is a mental idea.
[translation]
It is enough that you see.
And if your seeing is only this much,
then be fully in this much.
[translation]
And it will begin to expand.
[translation]
Always there will be some doubt.
Don't pay so much attention to that.
It is the nature of the egoic mind, to always bring some doubt.
[translation]
In itself, it is not anything.
And even doubts, they are also not a bad thing.
[translation]
But routine doubts, habitual doubt, [translation]
this comes from the mind itself. [translation]
So, when I hear you say, 'How to open? How to open?'
[translation]
I immediately want to save you this trouble.
Don't touch this thought.
[translation]
You are alive.
You are life itself.
You are the Self.
The pure Self.
It is only our conditioning
that makes us feel we are our mind, our thoughts.
[translation]
Just don't trust that so quickly.
[translation]
[Mooji] When I look at each of you, I don't see anything wrong.
[translation]
But how you look from inside,
maybe you think something is wrong.
[translation]
[Mooji] I wonder which one of us is correct?
[translation] [Laughter]
[Mooji] OK.
Just by being here, I say,
Sit, just sit inside your own being.
[translation]
In that space of openness, it is not something difficult,
but just be here.
Already, not everything is done through words.
[translation]
The full power of the Universe is here also.
[translation]
[Mooji] OK.
'How to open?' Don't touch this thought.
