Walk with Moojibaba - Love Nourishes Everything

When you discover the self, it’s all purity, all joy, all light. Free of desire. The one who is free of desire is rich, is complete, is content, is happy. This is our final discovery, our ultimate truth. Our profound understanding, and this is the good news, I feel, to human kind and all beings. Our inmost truth.

May your heart never be shrouded by ignorance or arrogance, but be freed from the veils of delusion. And be happy.

Love Nourishes Everything

[music]

[Mooji] If you have a plant,

[M.] and you surround this plant
with a lot of negative energy,

[M.] suppose there were four people
around this plant saying,

'We don't want you here',

you feed it every day, put in the sunshine,

but, 'We don't want you here,
we don't love you,

we don't care for you,
you shouldn't be here', it will die.

If you have a plant that a lot of people go to
to take healing,

It will grow because there's faith there,

but maybe also it will get weak.

Plants that you send a lot of love to,

they will also grow in strength.

We use that example.
It's the same with people.

For the most part,
if you don't put love towards them,

that is the nutrition of life,

love and faith in God, trust, openness,

all this is like food for human spirit,

if they don't get that,
they get deformed in some way.

They don't function well and eventually ...

I mean, they die,
but they start to die spiritually first

and then they die physically.

You can die spiritually, in a way,

and still be alive biologically.

But there will not be much flavor
in your life.

You'll just feel like
you are just taking up space,

that is the worst death.

So it's good ....
Even if people are very down,

even if they've done terrible things,

there will always be people
who can turn love towards them,

put some amount of attention,
some amount of love towards them.

Sometimes it's too late,

they are not receptive,
there is nothing to drink that love in,

the pores are closed.
But this is the same way when you have ...

Maybe this is why
we encourage each other to work,

because when you work your mind is alive,
it's more active

and you are more receptive
to correspond with life,

at the same time, not always fully.

But one who is really oriented

towards love and faith and trust in God,
this one is going to grow.

Even if the body is deformed,

inside they are powerful spirit,
like Ashtavakra.

His body was all bent up and like this
and people laughed at him,

but he was spiritual dynamo,

spiritual powerhouse
of wisdom, insight, divinity and purity.

I think the story of Ashtavakra was,

the king wanted to speak with wise people,
or something like this.

And he asked for all the wise people to come.

People came from all over
and amongst them was this boy

whose body was deformed in eight places,
like this.

And some of the other people in the queue
were laughing,

'Where are you going with that?

You're not going to go very far.
Why are you in this queue?'

He laughed and they took insult,
'Why are you laughing?

What have you got to laugh about?
Look at you!'

He said,
'I'm laughing because I find you funny.

Because you feel that
the deforming of this body

is the deforming of my Self.'

And he was the one
who became the king's guru, in fact.

He chose him.

It is better if you have a bad body
and a great soul

than if you are poor in spirit
and have a great body.

But it is a question of opinion, of course.

That's why it's good that you pray,
you bless others,

you bless also your power,
you empower your spirit

because you have good intention,
good vibration.

You turn that vibration of goodness
towards everybody,

'Bless you! Bless you! Bless you!'

Then it raises up your power also,

because you bless,
you're sending goodwill towards all beings.

You don't want to keep it for ...
That makes you selfish.

To keep wanting to take makes you selfish,
to give makes you rich.

One who gives is rich,
the one who keeps is poor,

or not just keeps, but clutches.

But back to the first point,
even if your body is not well,

but inside you don't have a feeling of blame
or complaint or so on,

you keep inside your house clean,

even if outside looks really raggedy,
inside is clean, empty,

fit for God's presence,

then you're really living in a mansion.

But if inside is dirty, dirty feelings,

but outside looks very fit and everything,

then you are just touting for business.

What is good to remember is inside.

When you discover the Self,

it's all purity, all joy, all light.
Free of desire.

The one who is free of desire is rich,

is complete, is content, is happy.

And this is our final discovery,
our ultimate Truth,

our profound understanding.

And this is the good news, I feel,
to human kind and all beings.

That our inmost Truth,

and it's not under layers and layers of anything,
it's right here.

It only seems to be veiled by our thinking,

veiled by our negative thoughts,
not just by negative thoughts

but by accepting negative thoughts,
identifying with them,

embracing them, making use of them,
keeping company with them.

If you don't do this,
it is not difficult to feel the space,

the peace, the joy,
the light of the living God in you.

And this is health, that is what in my view,

I say, This is health.

So health to all beings.
Health to all beings means that,

may your heart never be shrouded
by ignorance or arrogance,

but be sort of freed
from the veils of delusion.

And be happy.

Good! Good! Good!
