A Peaceful Life Is Priceless

In this powerful and intimate guided silent sitting, Mooji invites us all to sit with him in the room of Being. “I’m only guiding you, your attention, back to your natural state of stillness. A peaceful life is priceless, a peaceful mind is priceless. Here peace and contentment go together. Effortlessly at rest, not striving to be somewhere else or to be in any other state, and notice that your entire being is enjoying this rest."

Namaste,

Everyone.

Thank you.

Welcome to this evening's silent and guided meditation.

This session will last approximately.

.

.

Let's say,

Let's aim for like 20 minutes or so,

For now.

Now,

This won't be strict,

Because we will just see how it unfolds.

It could be a little bit shorter,

It could be a little bit longer.

Find a place where you are comfortable.

And so,

It really is an amazing opportunity to experience what it is like to be totally at peace,

Not just quiet in the physical sense,

But deeper than this,

To experience one's natural state,

Whereby the mind is in deep harmony with the heart energy.

I know these words may sound a little bit unusual for some of you.

You have never done this before.

But I will keep my guidance in a very simple way,

And you will find very little difficulty in following my guidance.

Thank you.

I am just asking you,

Already you see something in you is already responding to the opportunity and the occasion that we are presented with here.

I am simply asking that you unplug,

As it were.

You will find that this is not difficult.

Meaning,

If I were to ask you just to leave all your thoughts concerning where you are coming from,

What is going to happen here,

All the thoughts about yourself and all of this,

As much as you are able to,

Just leave it outside for a moment,

So that you come here and enter the room a little empty.

And thank you for finding that place in you which is silent.

Where you are not here in the next 20 minutes or so,

I will not engage you with any activity whereby you need to use your mind.

And so,

You can simply just relax,

But don't fall asleep.

Good?

OK.

Now,

All that you need to be open to right now is just the sound of my voice.

I am just going to guide you here and there.

It is not an hypnosis session,

So you need not worry.

You are simply to listen.

I am only guiding you,

Your attention,

Back to your natural place of stillness.

OK?

Yes,

OK.

Very good.

Now,

As you are sitting here,

You are naturally aware of.

.

.

Now that we have closed the doors,

The sound from outside has lessened.

Your senses are still functioning.

I am not going to ask you to control them.

Let them operate under their own natural ways and laws.

That is fine.

No disturbance to that.

Deeper than this is that your mind and attention are naturally coming to relax.

Not so jumpy,

But settling down in an inner silence and stillness.

Very good.

For most of you,

Your eyes are closed.

There is a natural response to the call to be more internal or inward with your attention.

We say the eyes are like the windows to the world.

Now we have closed the shutters,

And you see that there is an inwardness.

You are aware of the sounds that are coming in through your ears,

The sense of tranquillity in the room.

Very good.

If there is any sense of any kind of inner thing going on,

Movement of the mind,

Memory,

Some images,

Anything like that coming,

Don't fight with them.

Be aware of them,

But keep into your silence.

This is not difficult,

As you can see.

From time to time,

A movement from the mind may come,

And you will feel a tendency to drift into thought.

But right now you can easily avoid that.

It is not going anywhere.

It is simply a habit that will tend to bring your attention into some noisy state.

So ignore that for now,

And remain in your natural silence.

Very good.

Notice that there is no real effort of such,

To simply be.

The only thing that can bring disturbance at all,

Are some feelings or thoughts arising in you.

And by itself,

That is not a problem.

When we give too much importance to them,

Or you begin to drift off with them,

They bring you into a state of more agitation or noise.

So choose not to engage with them.

Simply this exercise will be good to do.

Again,

You come,

Sit quietly somewhere.

It is if you could see that all the functions of the mind were like switches that you just automatically,

By closing your eyes,

All the switches are turned off.

And the activity of thinking and projecting and imagining all of that lights out on them.

So now you are in a very quiet,

Very empty,

Silent space.

It is rare in our human life,

Lifestyle,

For us to make use of such an opportunity as we are doing now,

To completely shut down on all our mental,

Emotional,

Psychological activities,

And to come to a place of such great peace.

Not only is it enjoyable,

But it is a very powerful,

Powerful state.

You would not think so,

But I will explain,

Powerful in what way?

It is powerful in that here,

Your mind and being will automatically be responding to a natural synchronicity or harmony.

It is also a very healthy state for body and mind.

A peaceful life is priceless.

A peaceful mind is priceless.

Here,

Peace and contentment go together also,

Effortlessly at rest.

No striving to be somewhere else,

Or to be in any other state.

And notice that your entire being is enjoying this rest.

The more that you allow this kind of shutting down from the outer world and the inner world's activities of mind,

Emotion,

Thought,

Feelings,

The more you will love it.

Your life responding to this becomes very harmonious,

Very silent,

Very happy.

Notice also that there is no need for waiting.

Waiting means you need something.

Right now,

You are not in a state of need,

But of deep harmony.

There is no need for anything next,

Something to come.

Just you are.

Now normally,

There is some urge or habit in the mind to go to the next experience,

The next place,

The next activity.

But here,

You have come to be at full stop,

And happy,

Stable,

Healthily peaceful,

Free from stress.

Now you see that you are not a container of thoughts,

Feelings,

Memories,

Ideas,

Projections.

Not at all.

You are entirely empty of them,

And at the same time,

You are totally present.

You are totally present.

But there is a new quality to this present.

We are going to call this presentness the state of presence.

You are not merely a form.

You are empty of not only thoughts,

Not only words,

But of form itself.

Yet,

How natural,

How simple,

How pleasant.

You are not a container of thoughts,

Not only thoughts,

But of feelings,

Not only words,

Not only words,

But of feelings,

Not only words,

Not only words,

Not only words.

Notice also that there is no real sense of time.

There is no need.

And yet,

It is totally natural.

There is nothing artificial about this.

Why?

Because you are not doing anything.

Now allow this non-doing simply to be.

There is time for activities later.

All activities which will take place will be much more harmonious,

Because you have given this gift to yourself.

Therefore,

All activities,

However diverse they may be,

Or they will be,

Will have behind them,

And inside them,

This inner quality of peace.

I am using the word peace,

But it is following the state itself.

Whatever this is,

It really has no name.

Peace is our human way of naming this.

Tranquility,

Silence.

The more we appreciate,

Enjoy and come to love our being,

The more we will begin to feel very well,

Increasingly,

And more spacious,

More kind,

Less fearful,

More loving and compassionate.

These are the wealth of the true human experience.

Thank you.

Notice also that normally our lives we can write about and say,

What is going on?

What we have done?

What we intend to do?

What we did before?

And such things.

But right now,

Look,

You are history-less.

This inwardness,

All awakened beings,

They know.

It is the natural,

Uncreated state of being.

They give a space for that,

A value to this.

Knowing and experiencing that all activities of body and mind find natural,

Harmonious unfolding and appropriateness when it arises from this state of inner tranquillity and serenity.

You did not create this present state of being simply by choosing to,

Giving space for,

And leaving the habit of engaging with the thought traffic.

We gradually come to experience this natural state with more practice,

Given more time,

Whenever you like.

This inner beautiful state of tranquillity and peace will continue to shine in you.

Ok?

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Om.

Om.

Thank yoga dear Mooji for this peaceful, loving meditation. Your voice is like heaven 🙏🏻

Always moved (or more appropriately, stilled) by Mooji. I come to him to successfully detach and I thank you sir!

Thank you Mooji for sharing this opportunity to experience the peace and formlessness of being. Not very often am I able to disengage with my thoughts, but your guidance helped me to stay quietly in that space of just being. I'm so grateful that I found you.

This was really nice. I was able to let go of thoughts and not engage in the few that came in. I visualized a release at the end. Namaste

Truly amazing and guided meditation. Each one of your teachings has been a unique experience and extremely useful. I will continue to meditate and learn more about quietness, stillness and peace of mind that comes with the silence of being in the moment. Thank you and God bless you for your teachings.

This was honestly one of the most awe-inspiring and peaceful meditation I have experienced in some months. Thank you, Mooji 🙏
