Quote of the Week
"One who acts giving over all actions to the Universal Being is untouched by sin as a lotus leaf is untouched by water.  By means of the body, by the mind, by the intellect, and even by the senses alone, yogis abandoning attachment, perform action for self purification."
Bhagavad-Gita 5.10-11

Commentary:  The suggested technique for enlightenment is to give authorship of all actions to the Universal Being, the source, course and goal of everything in creation, so that we may remain untouched by the binding influence of action, which leaves one with a particular perspective regarding any action--either attraction, aversion, or indifferenceThis technique is something we practice with our body, mind, intellect and even with our senses, but it is based mainly in the understanding that nothing happens by mistake; all of life is a synchronous orchestration in which everything affects every other thing!  This alone gives meaning to the adage to Do unto others as we would have done unto us, for in truth this is how it is!  Knowing this purifies our thoughts, speech, actions, and our perceptions which in time, automatically leads to enlightenment.

Mooji

Anthony Paul Moo-Young, known as Mooji, was born on 29 January 1954 in Port Antonio, Jamaica.   Mooji is a direct disciple of Sri Harilal Poonja, the renowned Advaita master, or Papaji.  Since 1999, Mooji has been sharing Satsang in the form of spontaneous encounters, retreats, Satsang intensives and one-to-one meetings with the many seekers who visit him, from all parts of the world, in search of the direct experience of truth. Few amongst the modern teachers of the Advaita tradition expound the 'knowledge of Self', and the method of self-inquiry, with such dazzling clarity, love, and authority.  His style is direct, clear, compassionate and often humorous.
