letting go... letting go...letting go...
Mooji. New York 2009
Something needs to let go for what to happen?
[Questioner]. I feel like something needs to let go in some way...
...and I cannot do it; it just has to do it.
[Mooji]. Something needs to let go, for what to happen?
Let's see, maybe there is a need to let go, because something is blocked.
Identify it. Something needs to let go, for what to happen?
[Q]. I've just had the experience of understanding a lot.
and then coming back to feeling like I do not understand much at all.
[Mooji]. There is not much to understand at all.
[Laughter]
[Mooji]. I ask this question seriously because many people express it.
'I need more to time to really identify, to let go', and all of this.
I have heard it many times.
My question is a legitimate one.
What is going to happen if you do succeed in letting go? Then what?
Will it be that you will become more awareness?
Or, is there another objective other than awareness?
Must awareness wait, for what to let go?
Will awareness clap? [Mooji claps his hands gently]
Because you (who?) let's go of what?
[Laughter]
It belongs to be asked doesn't it?
Because many of these strangers are occupying your space.
Whispering, and you are believing...
and saying 'something needs to let go'.
If you hold on and purchase this suggestion,
you will keep on living in a kind of denial.
'I still need to do something and get somewhere'.
And you are off on the wrong track.
If, what it is I am pointing to
is what you are trying to gain clarity about.
If it is something else, like letting go so that you can fly.
Identify it and I will tell you if you are in the right room or not.
Is there something more to be gained, understood, recognised...
than the fact 'I am the awareness itself'? Is there more?
I put it that 'that' is the essential discovery.
Thereafter, the impact of this seeing ...
will bless every other aspect of your expression automatically.
If you do not believe me, you will be singling out and snipering off things.

What is going to happen if you do succeed in letting go? Then what?
Will it be that you are more awareness? Or what?
[Mooji]. You have this feeling...
'I need to let go of something in order to be free'.
Many human beings have this type of feeling
and they have had it for a very long time.
It is only powerful because it has been held for so long as a belief.
If you purchase this thought you will begin immediately to struggle.
You will continue struggling and it will be difficult to transcend...
because you believe in it.
Recognise that this is merely a thought appearing in consciousness.
It is nothing more than this.
Let this thought go, remain as you are and you will remain happy and free.
This is the secret.
