Mr. Mooji, i don't agree with you totally on these profound words for personal reasons. Others can interrupt your peace and harmony life as well without you yourself ever thinking about some scenarios that happen, without your own influence on it, a negative world connected with another person in your past life which you cannot sometimes bann totally out of your life.
To understand "the self" is one thing, the realization of "the self" is another. I see through my thoughts and realize that when I associate with them that the thought is only really associating with another thought... (The one I call me) however this vacillates like a light switch turning on and off. The pain of knowing and continuing to act out in certain ways is what sparked my original question. It's funny that this is like the self helping itself to realization.
How does one stay there? Alone i find such peace, but in the company of other i'm drawn back into association with my thoughts and conditioning. I get flashes of truth (the emptiness of the moment)when in the company of others and feel lost and scared. Almost ashamed, how do i live here.
By the recognition that you can't escape yourSelf. Your question on how to stay here is a false question. "Alone" and "other" are both concepts and therefore thoughts. You haven't left thought yet when this is still real for you. The experience of peace is not what this questing for your true nature is about. The quest for truth is about finding out who the experiencer is of all experiences. (Continued)
To whom do any thoughts and experiences come? This is investigation into the primary feeling of "I". And in engaging in this kind of inquiry the question you started out with disappears into nothingness.
Find the courage to allow all of the negative experiences you seem to have around others to stay. Invite all of this in, don't push it away, but also don't get involved in it. Just remain neutral in the observing of the goings-on no matter how comfortable. (Continued)
Notice the pull to go into the experience, to fix things. Don't, but if you do, don't judge yourself either. If you do, again don't judge yourself. All of this is what we mean to stay neutral. The habit energy will drop off, your natural power is slowly restored and you will rid yourself of this conditioning. (Continued)
My name is Zenji. I used to feel very much like you around people. When there were more than just a few, I would feel isolated and very uncomfortable. Through the application of the wisdom that Mooji shares. All of this is history and a natural way to respond to each moment was uncovered. The concept of other dropped altogether and with it the fear that had been so much part of the functioning in life. (Continued)
But of course this quest will have a far greater result when we seek our true nature for no outcome at all. No bargaining for better experiences. Let them be a bonus to you. But the prospect of more ease in life can be a great motivator initially until even that no longer matters.
Good luck on finding what you are already and its natural power that knows no limits, no matter what experience seems to want to cling to you!
With love of this that you are in which the idea of "other" dies!
I wanted to add to my post #2 where it says "Find the courage . . ."
When the storm of negative experiences has died down a little through your willingness to stay neutral (which is also natural to the beingness you are), you can start inquiring who this "I" is that experiences this. When through this inquiry you find that this "I" is also just a thought to which these feelings attache, that they part and parcel of this imagined "I", then all experiences lose their power. (Continued)
Thank you for all of this, your words give me comfort. It's been almost 2 years since Ive committed to Ramana's question, I will continue to remain vigilant.
@pupo1313 in the company of others the truth is, that you are in the company of others, that is all. you need not try to do anything, just ride the moment as it comes. if people talk about nothing, they talk about nothing and you are free to go elsewhere, make coffee, relax on the couch till a more interesting situation arises, that is how you be space for whatever arises. you dont force people to shut up so space can arise, space does not act, it allows for anything and you are like space.
Mooji is known to advise the seeker to be suspicious of this voice that says "This is one of the best I've ever heard" or "are we simply getting clearer, more able to hear the message?" Who speaks this? Who is it that hears more clearly. Is this not also observed? And is that observer in any way affected by the message? Does the observer have form/quality? These kinds of questions and sharing one's findings are much more valuable and enjoyable to read.

the point and extremely truth that everything here is all about
is that no matter where you are you will be there..
everything your mind crashes with is just a window to crash through before you come to the other side.
the lucky thing about mooji is
that he points out this obvious truth..
and thats why you want to be with him forever and ever..
if you like something stay,
but if it becomes and addiction its not healthy,
and if you want to be rich and rule the world
you must BE with that

the constant persistence of attention is the same everywheere...
I can focus on SEX 24 hours and feel TREMENDOUS BEING with SEX...
Even mind comes before sex , so I make my mind to BE SEXX...
mind is the window that we see through
to the world no matter how much shit you see, mind comes before shit, and I come before mind, that makes me the unmanifested world..
that makes me responsible for all that I cast out through the window "mind"..?
Yes, who else .. ?

you beCOME the other
thats why you can separate yourself from other
and call it "I experience " the other.
if mooji was all there ever was, maybe you would say " I want to stop experience mooji"
and "JAAJI" would say "oooh you experience mooji before you open your heart.."
Then you go back to mooji and say "oh im still experiencing mooji!! Why?
MOOJI IS STILL HERE WHY???
See?:)

Mooji to me
probably has the most boring universe ever..
because he forces himself NEVER to imagine good things.. or bad...
but after boring you find that wonderful being
that mooji says to you how to be..
but it goes against your VERY REASON TO BE WITH MOOJI.
YOU WANT HAPPINESS MOOJI WANT YOU TO STOP WANTING HAPPINESS!! Thats why he always says the truth
sry for the caps if your ego cant stand large letters..:P
