Sahaja Glimpses ~ January 2025

Sahaja Glimpses

January 2025
(with subtitles)

[Mooji] We will walk with God

and that's walking in faith, in trust.

For without faith, it's fruitless.

Our faith in God is a power

that is not born through just a person.

So, let's move in what we have chosen
in the heart.

Let's put our attention
in the heart of the universe.

Hey, good good.
Hello. Hey, hey. [laughs]

Excuse me.
Very important satsang coming up.

[laughter]

We'll hold it. [the motorcycle]
What do you have?

[M.] Look at that! What is this?
It's a weapon!

[F.1] I was thinking of buying a zucchini,
but they are too big.

[Mooji] It's a weapon.
[F.1] Smaller ones are on the other side.

[Mooji] It's very nice!
Wow! [Mooji taps the zucchini]

We can even eat them.
Somebody can carry one, one.

[M.] Thank you. Have a beautiful day.
[F.2] Thank you. You too.

[M.] Thank you, brother.
[F.2] Thank all of you.

[M.] Great, very great.
[F.2] Maybe I even catch you on the way back.

[Mooji] We give you a push start. Go on.

[F.2] Caio. Thank you.
I have to go slowly.

[M.] My uncle and my brother
grew up in the country,

they take stuff from the soil,
they do this [wipe] and eat.

[F.3] It's actually a very good way to eat.

[F.1] It's almost certainly organic.

[F.4] Everything grows organically
around here.

[F.1] Some more?
[M.] Hmm!

[M.] I didn't want to say
I don't want to share it. [eats a tomato]

[F.1] We could do with these.

[F.5] Thank God that
nothing works without God.

[Mooji] Haha! What a statement!

Thank God that nothing works without God.

[Friend 5] Hallelujah.
[Mooji] Hallelujah. Alhamdulillah.

All this earth, all this play,

human beings going up and down, all of it,

I'm going to tell you a secret - it's not true.

It's only dreaming.
But we are so invested in the dream,

we cannot see the unreality of it yet.

As you begin to stay here, you resolve,

we may call it recede, revert,

back to your original nature
which is here, it's always here.

That's all. That's all! In one sentence.

By observing the mind,
you automatically revert to the heart.

That's it! Game up!

Game up doesn't mean the end of joy.

It is the freedom of joy. You see?

To overcome one's own ego
is to overcome the world. Mooji

Market day in the local village

[Mooji] Yeah, I want to try this one.

[Seller] It's ten euros.
[Mooji sits on a chair]

[Friend] This is a Portuguese saint.

[Mooji] I wonder who this is?

[Friend] Santa Portugesa?
[Seller] Si.

[Friend] Some Portuguese saints.

[Mooji rings a bell]

OK, do you know what that means?
[Mooji rings the bell again]

Everybody now be in this place.

And don't leave!
[laughter]

Can I leave it here?

You are in the right place,

at the right time, in the right form,

the right opportunity,

right here and now,

to awaken to the eternal. Mooji

Spontaneous satsang at Meki's Chai stall

Before we came here,
I was coming from Sahaja,

where a few of us were in the van together,

and just before I came on the road,
we stopped.

And I said, Now, before we go anywhere,

empty your mind for one minute.

Can anybody hear that?
Empty your mind for one minute.

And then what happened?
For one minute everybody sits in the van.

I said, Can you succeed? What did you find?

[sound of frying]
Fried sausages.

[sound of frying]
Thoughts and energy.

Just one minute, I ask you,
look and you'll see this.

Do you know what this means?
This is the background

to what's going on in your life
all the time.

That noise [sound of frying].
I say, can you detach from this?

You find you're not able
to detach from it.

Why? Because you don't practice it.

So this [points to head]
didn't ask you, 'Can I stay?'

Do you understand?
This [sound of frying].

This, trying to ...

did not ask your permission to be there.
OK?

So if this is underneath your thinking,

and all of this
are all your thoughts and feelings,

your memory, your desire, your identities,
all this [sound of frying],

so I asked everyone in the car,
Stop and be aware.

Don't identify. Don't log in to that.

Just be aware of it for one minute.

Do you know that anybody can do it?
No. Because it's there.

But what was the purpose of the exercise?

To show you what is behind here in your day.

You see friends, 'Hi darling, how are you?
Nice to see you.'

This [sound of frying].
You're not available even to your own self.

So the 'Just Be' exercise
is to exorcise that energy out of you

so that you can feel
your natural presence, God in you.

Because this [sound of frying]
is kind of ...

It will show you this, 'Have this!'

'Go and meet this one. Heh!' 'Do this!'

But for you to be behind here,

you need to be able to follow through.

Because something wants to
keep you in this world. [points to head]

Not the Earth, the Earth is innocent.
In here. [points to head]

That's what my teachings
have come to with you.

Who will follow?

Who will follow this one?

[Friend] I feel you, Grace
picked me out again.

And it's just ... I feel now is the time for

just deepening in your presence
in any way possible, I appreciate it.

[Mooji] We are good then.

[Mooji] Do you want to get
some of those cherries?

[Friend] Heh.
[Friend] Thank you, Guruji.

[Mooji] Love you, love you.
See you later.

[Mooji] Hey, Jah pirate!
How are you doing? Good?

[Friend] I got my Alantejan look.
[Mooji] Whoo! Watch out!

[Friend] I'm blending in.
[Mooji] See you soon, yeah?

The elderly home in the village

receives love and support
from Moojibaba and the team

[music]

[Friend] What are we picking up, Guruji?

[Mooji] I thought we are lacking
some chairs outside.

The chairs that they have are a bit weak.

So I thought if we have the red ones,
I don't know if we have them,

we can give them to them.

[music]

[playing music and singing with the residents]

Portraits for the residents

[Applause and clapping]

Awareness cannot leave you.

Everything else will leave you,

but Awareness is what you are.
Mooji

Moojibaba often walks down
to the Little Jamaica for a "coffee"

[Moojii] Hey, how are you doing?
[Boy] Good.

[Boy] A rubberband.
[Mooji] Oooh, ooh!

[M.] Rubberband.
[Boy] Hi, Guruji.

[Mooji] Hi, how are you doing?
Love to see you. Love you.

[Boy] I love you.
[Mooji] I love you too.

[Mooji] Look at this, though.
I mean, what's going on here?

Does that give a good impression of Sahaja?

We spend our days in bed,
even when the guests come.

[laughter]
No judgment, no judgment.

Pure light, pure light has no colour.

It touches a prism and it manifests
into a rainbow of different effects.

I'm going to use this metaphor.

The pure light cannot be seen.

But when it hits a prism ...
Do you know a prism?

Like say, for instance, it may look like a ...

Do you know what a prism is?

Then it [indicates bursting].
Not before the prism.

But hitting the prism
it manifests into lots of colours.

Now, all these colours

have their source in the colourless light.
Isn't it? OK?

Let's call this colourless light consciousness.

Let's call the prism the mind and the body.

The light goes through there.
It manifests as variation, variety.

Can you imagine now
all the differences in the world

are coming through the prism of the mind?

And then you can have no judgements.

The red is fighting against the green

and the green is not happy
with the yellow and da da da da.

So in a sense,
it's a simple example, a good one,

what spirituality means.

It's as though, somehow,
through the human instrument,

the rainbow of differences

has managed to reverse back
to the source light.

Do you understand?

It doesn't identify, 'I'm blue', 'I'm green'.

It says,
'These don't pertain to what I am, actually'.

Why? Because I have returned
through contemplation

to my original light,
the light of consciousness. OK?

That's the first great step.

From the light of consciousness
you can see all the rainbows,

but at the same time, it's not affected here.
[touches the heart]

Who has come to that space?

Then, beyond even this,
the light must come from somewhere.

So even this light,
which is called consciousness,

itself comes from somewhere,

somewhere beyond the range of the senses.

What is it?

And that 'somewhere-ness'
is in the heart of every living being.

Your pure nature, here [touches heart],
you must realise.

You are the light of consciousness

and also the very witness to this light.

You are timeless Awareness. Mooji

Our dear Shree went to the United States
to visit her family.

Meanwhile in Monte Sahaja,
the team is preparing a surprise for her.

Shree's hut and garden
are getting a surprise make-over.

[Friend] How is it going, Guruji?
[M.] It's going real fine.

[F.] Do you want to say something to Shree Shree?
She won't see it before.

[M.] I hope you're going to be very happy.

Anyway, you've got a lot of beautiful
Sahaja hearts coming together,

working to make this place
more comfortable for you.

And there's so much love.
And we love, we love, we love you.

So this is just an expression of that love.

And I hope you love it too.

So, yeah, lots of people coming in and out,

but some regulars are here all day.

[Lakshmi] Do you know what everyone was saying?

We were all here, the painters,

we were saying,
'It's so nice to do something for Shree,

as she is always doing everything for all of us'.

[M.] That's right. We were saying on the way,

it's nice to do something for Shree Shree

as she's doing something for everybody.

She doesn't have time
to do things for herself.

So we want to try to make it
as nice as we can.

[Friend 1] Babaji just built this railing,
Guruji and Babaki.

[Mooji] Too low. Take it up.
[Friend 2] Is this roof new?

[Mooji] Yeah, this one.
[F.2] It's awesome!

[F.2] She's gonna love that.
Very protective then.

[Mooji] Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Mooji] Listen.
You've got light on your path also, now.

[Mooji] Yep!

[Shree] Oh my God!

Oh my God!

[Mooji] It's nice.

[Shree] Wow. Oh my gosh! Ooh!

[Mooji] Yes. Go, go. We're also enjoying.

[Mooji] Ha, ha, ha, ha!

It's very nice, look,
I didn't see this picture.

Somebody put that picture just now.
Who did this?

[Friend] Pranjali.
[M.] Oh gosh!

We just wants to know if you like it.
That's the thing.

You can try your chair, please. Go on.

You've got to try your chair. Nice one?

You got your shoes on, that's OK.
[Shree] Wow!

[M.] Everybody came out and said,
'We got to take care of that girl.'

[Shree] Wow! I just never had time
to come and do the ...

[Group] That's why we came here.
[Shree] Wow!

[M.] Sorry, we sent you to America, babes.
[laughter]

[Mooji] No, no, no. Go on. Yeah.

You have light here. Yeah, yeah. [laughs]
[Shree laughs]

[Mooji] You've got running water.
You've got water there.

You've got your stuff here.

[Shree] Actually, it's too good! Honestly.

[Mooji] Everyone had fun, fun, fun.

And actually,
I invited them all out this evening

to have a meal at Casa at 7 o'clock.

[Shree] Yeah?
[Mooji] You're invited also. [laughter]

[Shree] Guruji, oh, my gosh!

Casa Nirvana Restaurant
is a community and heart center in the village

'Out of many, one people'

[Mooji] It's even in things like this
that I see satsang alive.

It's not only in being able to share

very high things, great knowledge,

but simple things, and the response, you know.

Guys, we need some help to do this.
It just came, you know.

Even the guys with the electricity,
at the last minute,

'Can you come and do it?'
They came late in the night.

If you move with integrity,
somehow this spirit responds to it.

Amazing thing!
Life could be so simple and so beautiful.

It wants to be,
life wants to be harmonious.

But your mind, woah,

too much conditioning and habits.

And, you know, it should not be special.

But it seems special now
because it seems rare.

Noboy's going, 'Aah! So unusual!'
No, it's just a natural thing.

But we have to relearn it.

At some point you come to see

how great a life has been offered to you.

And, hopefully, you take that opportunity.

[Mooji] Very good. Thank you, guys.

I want to tell you what happened
the other day when we met.

I went into the kitchen,
[An auspicious meeting with the Casa Nirvana team]

I said, Aah! Then I realised that, outside here,

there are lots of images of the saints,

they bless the place,
they're all looking into this space.

But in the kitchen there was nobody.

Just kitchen working, which is very nice.

So it felt it was important for me
to bring the presence

and the blessing and the darshan of God
in the kitchen.

So we prepared, we came,
and we put it everywhere.

And I want to tell you what happened.

[Mooji] Om Namah Shivaya
Om Namah Shivaya

Om Namah Shivaya

Om Namah Shivaya
Shivaya Om Namah

[Mooji] Is that good?
[Friend] It's so good!

[Mooji] We were working away, like that,

and as I came just here, in this place here,

the power of the darshan of God
was 'whoof' like this!

Whoa! I felt like
I had to step aside for a little,

because I felt so flooded now
with this grace is there.

And so, I want to tell you

that today this darshan
came here so powerfully

that the spirit of truth,
the darshan of God

and all the saints, all the sages

have come alive in this place,
even more than before.

And may that continue to prevade

the presence and the heart of everyone here,

all the people who come to visit Casa Nirvana,

and that this force will continue
to radiate from this place.

Thank you, thank you. Om Nama Shivaya.

Jai Papaji. Jai Sri Ramana.
Jai Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj.

Jai Sri Yogi Ramsuratkumar. Jai Sri Christ.

Pray to all the saints
and the holy prophets and sages of God.

Very good. Thank you.
Bless you, bless you, bless you, bless you.

Thank you, thank you, thank you so much.

I am the form and the formless.

Though time-bound is my form,

myself am the eternal. Mooji

Church Fundraiser

with music and tasty treat
from the local community.

[Mooji sings] A little more oil in my lamp, I pray.

A little more oil ...
[Mooji waves to the people]

[Mooji] Thank you, guys. See you soon.

[Mooji sings] A little more oil in my lamp
to keep it burning.

Keep it burning till the break of day.

Nobody explained that.
But now I can say

what is a little more oil in my lamp.

A little more wisdom, a little more guidance,

so that I can keep putting
a little more oil in my lamp,

in my mind, in my soul -
to keep it burning, to keep it growing.

[Mooji sings] A little more oil in my lamp, I pray.

A little more oil in my lamp to keep it burning,

Keep it burning till the break of day.

Meaning, keep the lamp burning
until the real light comes.

Nobody explained that.
I never heard anyone explain it.

But as you grow up you realise
what these songs mean.

We sing it as children,
or when I went to Sunday school.

[Mooji sings] A little more oil in my lamp
to keep it burning.

A little more oil in my lamp, I pray.
[Mooji claps]

A little more oil in my lamp to keep it burning,

Keep it burning till the break of day.
Hallelujah!

When you are empty,
love shines unimpeded.

Empty the house of you
and you will find God living here. Mooji

Present Day in Monte Sahaja
Mooji and team watch videos from the early days.

[M:] That's inside the library.

I said, actually...
I was up this hill and I said, you know,

We're here now
and maybe people will one day come here

and meet me, we have satsang here,

But if they don't come,
we sit underneath this moon. [laughter]

We never see the skies like this.

<verify> was here, Omkara,
quite a few, we're just all here.

Humble beginnings of Monte Sahaja in 2011

[Friend] [laughs] I'm filming you.

[Friend] Is this a Chinese morning?

The Chinese morning you called it once.
[Mooji] The Chinese morning, yeah.

Chai Making in the first kitchen.

[Friend] Guruji making tea in our kitchen.

In this life you must walk iin the external

but abide in the internal

and thus become established

in and as the Eternal. Mooji

Online Satsang
with Sahaja Express participants

Sangha photoshoot
for the Monte Sahaja Christmas card

An unexpected arrival
during lunchtime in the tearoom

[Mooji] Did you know about this?

Jeavon. Moojibaba's son.

[Mooji] Who knew about this?
[laughter]

So he was hiding, this one here,
in the storage.

[laughter]

[Mooji] There's just a feeling arising,
now is the time to slow down.

Everyone slow down. And deepen. Mature.

I'm not asking the person to mature.

But if you slow down with me,
maturity will come.

It's time. It's a beautiful time.

It's a beautiful time.

God is taking care of all things

and that's the message I have for you today.

Slow down. Come.

And, of course, you will feel the racy mind,

the energy, the breathlessness
that comes with the aspiring soul,

because some tension comes
and some haste comes.

I say don't worry, leave it with me.

Leave it also with God.

And just you put your heart,

your heart's yearning, your intention,

put your intention here,
and everything will be just fine.

Everything is just ... It is fine.

But you will come to see how fine it is. Allow.

Bless you, bless you, bless you.

That's OK.

Your power is in inner solitude.

In your inner aloneness the Lord is revealed.
Mooji

A powerful season of satsangs
is unfolding in Little Jamaica

[M.] In the early days of sharing satsang

I'd tell illustrations and stories.

People laugh at them
and we talk about this.

But as time went on, it became slim,
slimmer and slimmer,

less stories, less reports, less ...

To now, where we have taken away the feathers,

we've taken away the bones,
we've thrown out other things.

Only the pure is here.

[Friend] I come to meet you as I am.

[Mooji] I come to meet you as I am.

What is 'I Am' and is 'I Am' alive in you?

What is the biggest truth of you?

When we say, reverse, don't touch anything,

don't combine your sense of self

with any action or thought
or image or intention,

so just be witness - we are reversing.

We are coming to the place of witnessing,
not of participating,

just seeing, that as far as we can respond

to reversing, come back, come back.

Come back means, take nothing with you.

As I am speaking, this must be true.

It is not homework for later.

Reverse, back, and take nothing with you,

meaning no identity,
no object to be possessed,

no learning,
no association with anything at all.

If that is done, are you still?

This place, can it ever be was?

Is it located in time and space?

Does it have beginning or birth?

Does it have proportion?

Does it have size, this 'I Am'.

[Mooji] Answer.
[Group] No.

[Mooji] Is it merely answer or realisation?

Does it exist
or is it coming soon into existence?

Is it not from here that everything
that appears in the mind,

gross or subtle, is perceived?

And yet, it remains unaffected.

That is the Self.

We cannot come even to the beginning

of the greatness of God.

I speak about God, I'm not holding God
to some shape or a figure.

Universal consciousness, the Supreme Being,

none can exist without Him.

We say God is everywhere,

but He will only enter the heart that welcomes.

It is like some kind of paradox,
He is everywhere,

but He will only enter the house
where He is welcomed.

Like that.

Om, Hallelujah, Alhamdulillah, Amen.

I am nothing and I am everywhere.

Come and find me. Mooji
