Mooji — Living From the Heart and Beingness

Mooji is a Jamaican Spiritual Teacher. That’s him above. Lot’s of warmth in that photo. Lot’s of invitation.

This little piece below came my way recently through a friend. I love her sharing, her guiding, and I love Mooji’s words for the doing and being that arise from the heart.

For those of us that fret regularly or with spiked moments about our knowing, wowza! I’m glad for the reminder. I’m glad for the exquisite invitation to go more deeply within, accepting that there is an inner sourcing that connects to all of the outer sourcings, yet is somehow so richly connected to life living us. Yup, these are stories I wish to be true. Yup, these are stories I wish to live further in to.

I am not
a speaker nor a preacher.
I have no mission to change the world.
I have no original words
or teachings to give anyone.

I reflect only what I have experienced
directly inside my heart, in the most natural way.

I have no fascination for fresh ideas or activity.
All enthusiasm for worldly endeavors
and striving have all but gone.

For me, thoughts words, and deeds —
the activities of life — are merely
the utensils for serving out the
prasad of the Beingness.

A bow for the Beingness — it brings me alive to think of such beingness within me, and with people in groups finding their way.

Gifts of Circle - Question Cardsasd
Gifts of Circle is 30 short essays divided into 4 sections: 1) Circle's Bigger Purpose, 2) Circle's Practice, 3) Circle's First Requirements, and 4) Circle's Possibility for Men. From the Introduction: "Circle is what I turn to in the most comprehensive stories I know -- the stories of human beings trying to be kind and aware together, trying to make a difference in varied causes for which we need to go well together. Circle is also what I turn to in the most immediate needs that live right in front of me and in front of most of us -- sharing dreams and difficulties, exploring conflicts and coherences. Circle is what I turn to. Circle is what turns us to each other."

Question Cards is an accompanying tool to Gifts of Circle. Each card (34) offers a quote from the corresponding chapter in the book, followed by sample questions to grow your Circle hosting skills and to create connection, courage, and compassionate action among groups you host in Circle.

In My Nature is a collection of 10 poems. From A Note of Beginning: "This collection of poems arises from the many conversations I've been having about nature. Nature as guide. Nature as wild. Nature as organized. I remain a human being that so appreciates a curious nature in people. That so appreciates questions that pick fruit from inner being, that gather insights and intuitions to a basket, and then brings the to table to be enjoyed and shared over the next week."

This set of Note Cards (8 cards + envelopes)  quotes a few favorite passages from poems in In My Nature. I offer them as inspiration. And leave room for you to write personal notes.

Most Mornings is a collection of 37 poems. I loved writing them. From the introduction: "This collection of poems comes from some of my sense-making that so often happens in the morning, nurtured by overnight sleep. The poems sample practices. They sample learnings. They sample insights and discoveries. They sample dilemmas and concerns."
