Rooted in Being - Mooji's words

When you are experiencing with your attention

rooted in being, your mind is no longer collecting

outer impressions and the usual noise of the world

goes unnoticed. All is replaced by this field of seamless

awareness. For most people, their attention is engaged

with sensory perception, and the noise produced there

becomes the background of their being.

But for one who is absorbed in the Self, the most

profound experience is that of unbroken, soundless

Awareness, in which all phenomena appear and

disappear without trace. For the one who has lost

interest in the mind play, impressions drift further and

further away from the heart of perceiving. This should

be everyone’s unbroken experience. However, when we

get wrapped up in the scenarios created by the mind,

we will be distracted.

As you stabilise more in the Self, you find and enjoy

peace even in the midst of daily life. The sense ‘I’ in you

becomes a synonym for peace and harmony. For such a

one knows he is not just the body or mind, nor is the

body-mind a mere container or an antenna for receiving

the incessant noise and impressions of the world. Even

amidst the worldly traffic of sensations, the awakened

one remains unperturbed, abiding effortlessly in the

silence of Being. The mind of an awakened one is like a

space in which phenomena appear and disappear, yet

nothing sticks.
