Are You Ready For The Truth?

Satsang with Mooji Dear Mooji, you said that oneness is just a concept. Can one feel united with the others as a one through the heart, or through the vibrations? Is it more than just an experience? Marielle, maybe? Marielle? You said that oneness is just a concept. I don't want to just say that. Now there are many times we speak things and perhaps you're not ready to assimilate it right now, to say that. This is why I don't too much trust teaching. Teaching, then you are learning, learning. I don't trust learning too much either. It is good, it is an expression of consciousness. It is necessary also. Learning, teaching, it is necessary up to a point. Practice also is necessary. Because not everyone ... Many people come and they say, I just want the complete truth. But could you bear the complete truth? Would you cope with it? So almost, although we are that and we are this, still sometimes, because there is so much noise, inner noise, mental noise, conceptual noise, psychological noise inside, then somehow, if it was revealed to you, the complete truth, you probably would not even appreciate it. It would feel too much, or something. Although you are this, it is like you have to retrain yourself to develop an acquired taste for your own Self. It is like that. Some people feel like they deserve a perfect relationship. Because I exist, I should just have the perfect partner. But are you ready for that one? Everybody wants everything perfect. We want so much, but we offer so little. So it has to be said, it is not that the truth is hiding. Your heart is true. We are truth. But we have given so much importance to our projections and mind, and we want to fulfil our projections. Then there is no space really for the true. This is why I say practice is good. Practice helps to refine the consciousness and mind, to take out the noise, to comb out the noise from inside. Then you develop a natural attraction for what is your own Self. So whose attraction is it? It really is the mind. But we are presently calling the mind our Self. It is an aspect of our Self, but it is not the definitive being. It is an aspect. And also with conditioning. We have much affection for the conditioning, for the sense of who we are. We are very affectionate for the sense of who we are, for our self-image, for the idea we have of who we are. We protect it fiercely. Then there is very little space left to find just that natural truth. Same with relationships. It is not a bad example. You want a relationship. You want someone who is, I don't know, I was going to say, like a god for you, or a goddess for you. But are you ready for such a one? If you are not happy with yourself, then you are going to start criticising them. Why don't you sit with your legs like that? Why don't you sit like that? Why do you lean like this? Why don't you do this? And who can stand that? Not even God can stand it. So, I don't like to say, Yes, you are united with others. You say that oneness is just a concept. In some cases, when we are ready to ... You really hear that inside the heart. Some people hear it. They understand that oneness, sometimes you must go beyond the concept of oneness into real oneness. Even this language is not totally true, because your heart is already this perfect thing. So who are these words addressed to? It is addressed to the image and the idea you think of as being yourself. Because that is what you refer to as self. When you say, I, I really means pure consciousness. That is what it is. But it has become to mean the personality. And the personality is not stable. This is why sometimes you feel like this, sometimes you feel like this. Sometimes I love you, sometimes I don't love you. This is not love. The person doesn't really know complete love. It is sometimes like this, sometimes like that. Like the waves of the mind, like that. Now, can one feel united with others as one through the heart? Yes, yes. As the attention moves away from the projection and from the stories and recognises the heart, the presence and the power and the beauty of the heart, automatically there is an understanding of that unity of being. It is not even an attitude anymore. It is your natural flavour. Spontaneously you know this thing. So can one feel united with others as one through the heart or through the vibration? Same thing. Is it more than just an experience? If it is recognised from the standpoint of a person, it will be only experience. It means that that will also go to the past memory. It will not be your continuous unbroken recognition. Only when the individual is merged with the true Self, their One, then there is nothing for you to remember. There is nothing to forget, actually. All is well. But if you stay as a person, you have to have so many techniques, so many things to remember, this practice, then that practice, and then another practice. The mind is attached to practices also, because as long as you practice, you are not there. You can become addicted to practice. You say, I am on the journey, I am searching for Truth. But if you are brought just to the very mouth of Truth, you say, OK darling, now you want Truth, let's step in. Then you start to make excuses, just one moment, wait for me, I am coming back. You are gone. Nobody can find you. Where is he? He is not back. He is still in the chai shop. So, OK. Good.
