Closing Blessing from Tiru Silent Retreat - - 30th March 2016
Saar (Essence)
Ananta expresses deep gratitude to his Guru and the land of Arunachala, offering a final blessing that all participants transcend their personal identity to recognize themselves as pure, ever-present silence.
May none of you leave here as a person; may you only leave as presence.
The truest silence is not the absence of words; it is the absence of egoic identity.
The grace that brought you here is working to bring the clearest recognition of yourself to you.

I feel it's a very beautiful way to come to the conclusion of this beautiful time that we spend together because it can expose these very sneaky, very tricky doubts which still seem to stay along for the ride sometimes, and it helps to clarify what are we really here for. I feel so, so immensely grateful to each and every one of you for being here because I found great resonance in every session that we had, and this kind of openness is what brings great joy here.
The biggest gratitude as always at the feet of my father, Satguru Shri Mooji Ji, for allowing this one to be his instrument and to share his life. So much gratitude for this holy land where it is said that without Arunachala calling you, you cannot come to this place. So thank you for this call for all of us. I feel Bhagwan's guiding presence has been with us throughout this time, and his presence has made this whole retreat so light and beautiful.
Also, big thank you to the team that helped to organize this. Amar, right from the beginning, has been answering all your emails. Anandi, Shiv, Petri, Jay, Aer, Amaya for transcribing—you know, while Satsang is on, just by the end of the Satsang she already has a transcript ready, so amazing. And this retreat has been shared with so many who are not here and will be available in perpetuity. If I miss some names, I'm really sorry. With my full gratitude to everyone.
I know already that the grace that brought you here is working in its own beautiful way to bring the clearest recognition of yourself to you. My blessing is that none of you leave here as person; may you only leave as presence. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I love you all so very much. Let's chant Om together to break the silence.
The truest silence is not the absence of words; it is the absence of egoic identity. And may this silence for you continue irrespective of the presence or absence of words.
