About the Book


"YOU WAKE UP EACH DAY FROM THE DREAM; BUT TO BE FREE, YOU MUST ALSO WAKE UP FROM THE WAKING STATE.”


- Mooji


In Breath of the Absolute, Mooji invites you to take a fresh look at yourself. Of all the subjects debated within the scope of human interest, the one undisputed fact is that we exist. What is not questioned is: As what do we exist? In this book, Mooji will push your mind beyond conceptual bickering into the pulsating clarity of the Unthinkable.


“The words in this book, emanating from Silence, are an act of living grace. When Consciousness speaks, that which speaks and that which listens are One. There's no seeker, no beloved. Only... Pure Awareness flowing as Love."


– Pamela Bloom, Author of The Power of Compassion


“The two people in whom I have most experienced the presence of what we call the Divine are His Holiness the Dalai Lama and Mooji."


-- Isabel Losada, Broadcaster and Internationally Bestselling


Author of The Battersea Park Road to Enlightenment


Preface


The editors prostrate themselves in front of this incredible Power that is the Truth, which they have come to know through Mooji, whom they regard as this same eternal Truth that never comes and goes, ever reliably and accessibly shining in the Heart of all!


For as far back as memory can reach, before Mooji came along, life was viewed as nothing but the sum total of mindbased and bodily experiences. The self in our minds was defined as equal to the circumference of the physical body. Experience after experience was strung together to form a unique biography. Some episodes of this accumulated history in our lives were pleasurable and impelled us to beg for encores, while others were so unpleasant that they were banned into the darkness of the unconscious, decreed never to see the light of day again – as if it were really possible.


This attitude wasn't unique to us, rather it is endemic, and is borne out of innocent ignorance. Approaching life like this may appear wise at some point in time, but, as Mooji shows, it has a dramatic and adverse impact on the quality of our lives, both inside the body and the way the external is further experienced. Humanity's habit of looking towards and managing experiences has a direct relationship with the suffering humankind endures. This strategy of screening the experiential realm for good versus evil, so as to select the agreeable or to manipulate anything that isn't perceived as desirable has, over time, brought about a sculpted image of ourselves as a person. The sense of 'l' as an individual encased in a physical body is an idea which we started to believe in and identify with, and we can't even remember when it all began. This watchlist of desirable and undesirable experiences, along with the idea of the one holding this list, acts like a roll of film through which the Power and Light of the Consciousness projects itself and thus appears our world with us as a moving part in it. Much like a movie or a dream, this world – as Shakespeare so wisely indicated – is a stage; a grand and intimate stage, where we as independent actors act out lives we know and call our own. With constant reinforcement, the way in which we experience ourselves continues to appear convincingly real up until we start questioning it.


This book has the purpose, if ever there is one, to sow the seed for you to start questioning your assumptions about yourself and life; and also to encourage whatever of this natural inclination is already showing itself in you to come to full bloom and to bring about the ultimate result, which is the realisation that you are one with this Truth Mooji is pointing towards.


Introduction


Breath of the Absolute is a collection of dialogues between Mooji and sincere seekers of Truth that took place in the winters of recent years at Arunachala, the sacred hill near the South Indian town of Tiruvannamalai.


The subject of any of Mooji's talks, and so this book is no exception, is your own Self. Like a warm-hearted, loving parent he uses words like a bar of soap to rub off false beliefs and assumptions that have kept us imprisoned in a world of our own making. Before we take Mooji at his word and investigate what we believe we know, we may not have even realised that we are the creators of our own suffering. This is not to say that the search for Truth has any goal other than Its own recognition.


Mooji points out the following: We exist; each and every one of us already knows this as a fact. But what is new and fresh is his invitation that we entertain this poignant question: As what do we exist?


Even when this question has started to excite us, our proclivity to listen to and believe in mind keeps us still thinking that it is up to us to create and achieve our Self.


Who we are in Truth requires nothing to be revealed to us except our willingness to look and to question the familiar suggestions of mind. The discovery is immediate, and no prior knowledge of any kind is needed. In fact, it is due to acquired knowledge and our belief in it that this simple Truth of our existence appears to us as obscured and inaccessible.


Mooji discourages you from reading this book as if it were a textbook for study. He does not trust learning as a means for you to realise the Truth. The focus of his words of wisdom you find printed in these pages is entirely on arousing in you the determination to carry out and follow through with the investigation that is suggested. Hence, this publication is not to be read from cover to cover or even in sequential order. Go to any chapter that attracts you and read it paragraph by paragraph. Don't abide by convention that would have you read through an entire chapter all at once. The main purpose is for you to contemplate in your own heart what is being shared with you, without turning any of it into homework. This approach is supported by the brevity of the chapters that are also selfcontained and arranged without any particular order. Thus, the presentation of the material does not assume any progression.


Keep in mind that Mooji's advice is directed towards the Consciousness. So, leave it up to the Consciousness to carry it out. If the questions and the directions given are not embraced with joy in the heart, then this is a clear sign that mind is engaged. When this happens, it does not mean that you are failing. Don't buy into any suggestion of success or failure, both of which are nothing but ideas arising in and as mind. As Mooji would say, you are still here, present as the uninvolved and neutral Observer of the apparent success or failure.
