[Questioner] This is my first satsang. [Mooji] Ah, OK.
This is my first satsang ...
[Music]
[Q.] You have a picture of a couple of men on the table beside you.
Who are they?
[Mooji] OK. Good, good, good. This one ...
this is a photograph of my master, Sri Poonjaji, Papaji.
And this is a photograph of Sri Ramana Maharshi,
who is the guru of him, the master of him.
[Q.] What is a guru?
[Mooji] A guru is like a human being
who has realised their original nature
and has transcended the influence of the ego and the mind.
[Q.] Is this possible in a human?
[Mooji] It is totally, totally, totally possible.
It is totally, totally, totally possible and this is why I'm here.
[Q.] What are you saying?
[Mooji] I am saying that if I felt it was not possible that
in sharings like this, that you will come to irrefutable clarity
and doubtlessness
that you cannot be anything other than what I'm pointing at ...
If it was even a doubt in me that it was not possible that
through this sharing you could come to see this,
I would not bother coming here.
I would not bother. I would not think of coming here.
Or anywhere else.
If I felt it was not possible to come and in sharing like this,
that you would see,
that you would see that
you are not your conditioning, you are not your education,
you are not what you've been thinking you are.
That you are That itself,
which is timeless, indestructible,
undying, eternal, pure and free.
If I didn't feel that it is possible for you to see this
like I see it and I am, I would not come here.
[Q.] I know it is possible to see it. [M.] Yes.
[Q.] Is it possible to live it?
[Mooji] No. There is nobody who can live it.
There's no one who can live it because in the seeing of it
there's nobody there to live it.
And this is freedom.
If there was someone there to live it, you would know mostly failure.
The sense of the doership in us is mostly a failing device.
See that this device is not true.
It's a fraud. It's not real.
Reject it completely. And what remains is that which is effortless.
It is not living It.
It simply is.
It does not have to remember how to be this, how to stay like this.
This is the common misconception which leads to so much suffering
and the sense of failure.
[Q.] Why is it so uncommon to have people like this?
[M.] This is my question.
[soft laughter]
Because what I see in you is This.
My question and quest is to find out:
why don't you see this, what I see?
[Q.] Thank you.
[Mooji] Very great.
