Famous Mooji Quotes

“The greater Truth is that you are the awareness within which the idea of yourself living a life and having awareness is appearing. In other words, the ‘person’ we take ourselves to be is an idea emerging in consciousness as an expression of consciousness.”

Mooji

Greater than Sky, Vaster than Space, (2018), Part I

“Truth is what we are. It is our essential nature and Being. It is the pure Self, the limitless one, the ultimate reality – it is awareness itself.”

Mooji

Greater than Sky, Vaster than Space, (2018), Part I

“It is time to leave behind childish attitudes and begin to pay a little more attention to what is really here. This is a time-body, a mortal body, but an immortal presence is moving in it. While the body is still warm, use this bodily life to rediscover your timeless Being.”

Mooji

Greater than Sky, Vaster than Space, (2018), Introduction

“Apply yourself fully to the introspection offered here. It is good for all seekers... This self-inquiry is your internal work. Internal work – eternal satisfaction. Internal work revealing timeless Self.”

Mooji

Greater than Sky, Vaster than Space, (2018), Part I

“Self-inquiry begins by looking to discover whether the personal identity, with all its conditioning and idiosyncrasies, is who we truly are. And it ends as a mirror in which the timeless is reflected.”

Mooji

Greater than Sky, Vaster than Space, (2018), Part I

“Identification with the body is a state that consciousness needs to experience for a while. But eventually, grace will compel consciousness to transcend this severe limitation and guide it home to its original nature.”

Mooji

Mooji Quotes about nature

“Those who discover that reality of their inmost Being enjoy a sense of peace, love, and wisdom as its natural perfume. They experience their essential nature as true freedom.”

Mooji

Greater than Sky, Vaster than Space, (2018), Part I

“The search for Truth is not about running away from the things of this world but about understanding their ephemeral nature. And more than that, it is about discovering our true nature as an inherent stillness from where even the subtlest movements of phenomena are being perceived.”

Mooji

Greater than Sky, Vaster than Space, (2018), Part I

“We have become unaware of the magnificence of our true nature on account of our upbringing, conditioning, and education, all of which paint a very different picture of who we are – and all of which we believe.”

Mooji

Greater than Sky, Vaster than Space, (2018), Part I

Mooji Quotes

“Everything you can perceive comes and goes, including your own body. You are the one looking at time, objects, and even thoughts and emotions.”

Mooji

Greater than Sky, Vaster than Space, (2018), Part I

“What we are is consciousness. The body is the vehicle through which consciousness can taste experiencing. And in the human form, consciousness has the capacity and opportunity to realise its own source and thus come into a direct experience of this.”

Mooji

Greater than Sky, Vaster than Space, (2018), Part I

“Regardless of whether the object of perception is physical and can thus be measured for colour, shape, and size, or whether what is being perceived is something more subtle like thought, feeling, and sensation, all are phenomena.”

Mooji

Greater than Sky, Vaster than Space, (2018), Part I

“All that we refer to as being ours – our body, our mind, our emotions – is not what we are, essentially.”

Mooji

Greater than Sky, Vaster than Space, (2018), Part I

“The concept I am the body is the core belief we adopt very early on... We take ourselves to be a particular body with a unique personality, and this perspective remains with us as we live our lives.”

Mooji

Greater than Sky, Vaster than Space, (2018), Part I

“From a young age, we pick up many false assumptions about the world, about life, and about exactly who we are living life.”

Mooji

Greater than Sky, Vaster than Space, (2018), Part I

“Here you are invited into the direct experience of that timeless reality through the method of self-inquiry, which forms the essence of this book.”

Mooji

Greater than Sky, Vaster than Space, (2018), Part I

“Spirituality is the search for perfect understanding, for Self-discovery, for Truth, and it must take place right where you are. The Truth that you are searching for must already be right here, for it is timelessly present.”

Mooji

Greater than Sky, Vaster than Space, (2018), Part I

“We all start out looking at life from the particular perspective of our upbringing, which provides us with assumptions about who we are. For most of us, this culturally imparted point of view simply remains our perspective as we move through life.”

Mooji

Greater than Sky, Vaster than Space, (2018), Part I
