Saar (Essence)

Ananta guides seekers to recognize their inherent completeness by exposing every thought, feeling, and spiritual benchmark as a mere concept. He encourages remaining as open, empty presence, untouched by the mind's labels of expansion or contraction.

Suppose you were out of that merry-go-round of expansion and contraction, because you are.
If the divinity would not be here now, full and complete, then that divinity would not be worth it.
The only choice you must make is to not go with the thought; then even that choice is seen as grace.

Ananta

And that's going on. Who's within me to have this answer? If you're not concerned even with your spiritual progress, all attainment given that spirituality would renew our spirit... Oh delicious, how much have you bought it? Have you ever had this answering email? Okay, let's see. What is... you're on a scale of one to ten, how much all depends? So how much it really go on? Suppose there is suffering, then that is minus 100%.

Ananta

As long as someone can claim the number one to ten, it's all the same. Chris, it's not all that bad. What is the mind can keep you in fact? Me, the thing is, gradually comes out. Congrats to... from the things that were very... were contracted before, when recognized, gratitude naturally flows. Suppose we didn't have the term 'contracting'. Yeah, no works. I mean, no contact. Suppose it meant nothing. These are white without it to tell my heroes and it works. This contraction is happening, implying that it should not be. Suppose our entire goes to completion, you would buy it? Okay, if I sold it to you completely, much misunderstood, totally change and she... the goal is just to contract more and more. Didn't contract you so much they can be contract if it keeps on that. So we applied these benchmarks and you know, way these benchmarks are just a wheel avoidance, just a wheel. A clean and I know what's going on with me. These are popular even in spiritual circles because even while he might be sitting in satsang, we might have the sense good expansion happened. But I never said anything about expansion. I never said anything about something needing to happen. So what's happening is the words having chanted satsang in order check that I say good expansion to do some what it is.

Ananta

Suppose you were out of that merry-go-round of expansion and contraction because you are. You'll never leave the expansion nor tension. It never defined you. Anything if you find you as much as how much traffic there is on this or how much he defines you. I think that appearance and disappearance has the power to define you in any way. So you're checking now upon hearing this, is expansion happening? If it is, Guru Kripa equivalent to all judgments about fossils. But all judgments are just like a declaration of dependence, individual independence. Even a statement like 'no, everything is interdependent'. But if you were to say interdependent means there are many, so ordered Vinson, we are fraught with this kind of mystery. Try to make stupid simpler.

Ananta

If you had a kitchen full of the best food in the world, getting full of the best, would you be running here and there because you are me? Yoga gymnast don't keep you full right now. But if you start checking if this Belgian chocolate or Swiss chocolate, is this expiry date is one month away or two years... with this kind of stuff, then it is in the mind major to convince you that maybe we should learn about a written, get some better stuff. If the divinity would not be here now, full and complete, then that call that divinity would not be worth it. I wrote myself, advise you to get off this spiritual bus if your Self was not already full and complete. An apparent my intricacies are when will I recognize this perceptually, conceptually, or truly? How many are still waiting for some perception to happen to convince you? Our mirrors, another way to see that is some for some experience. What is the reasoning behind that? I shouldn't mix begins happen anyway.

Seeker

So she said, because I already experienced this once before and this is a common report. I experienced this once before and I felt what it would like to not what to say and felt you were not there as the body. Yeah, well nobody was here since cortex. Yeah, the heavy sense of an individual entity inside these bodies.

Ananta

Suppose I were to tell you that that's just made up. You might not like me. Who your woman? Yeah, we're going to... I mean they would have to feel that you and a sense of what is aim but okay. Take now, where is the individual sense, the heavy individual sense? This come closer so if they kill you and I don't have to repeat. So let me the Rika look. An experience happen in which you could not find this me, the individuals, you see? Everything seemed like the same. I'm consuming that you could not television between that and all of this. Now if I were to tell you that actually you're not to street right now. Every right now has only been this and in some moments the... the either the mind who's a video already this one believable, either the mind conscious or it's just not believable and those are those experiences.

Seeker

Yes. So it's not that I have a constant thoughts I am an individual energy. Okay, it's just that the feeling, the overall sensation is is more... yeah, is heavier let's say exactly about this to be so. Now what is it? How is it today is different? I don't know. I know it's strange to explain because it's very subtle. It's maybe that every time a thought of suppose individual entity is coming, I buy it. Wait, the mind is fighting to to get you know his position.

Ananta

What does it have to do with you in the mind is like nothing? We remain convinced in this way that something has to change, some order to change, some Mexicans have to change or it has to be that like often I see isn't if it spiritual experience sometimes become like a chain that themselves bind us and whatever might happen now mine is it thank you. Yeah and use this memory also is it some sort of evidence? I promise you that that which was there then is here now.

Seeker

Okay. I know I know that what was there at that time is here but somehow they are still those distractions, those ideas, those thoughts. I feel you know for instance you and this is my believe me you know this is how I protect it or that you are not touched by the thought you know they come and go you know the feelings, the sensations but you you clearly know you know it's like me the attention goes a lot still to it.

Ananta

So what's new? So how we start not giving so much belief to these ones? By putting my attention more would Iranian I'm saying not how about we don't give belief to these ones to begin with and then if you feel like it is believe it's just too much too much then you can say okay maybe we can rest retention move on. I am what gives not actually make okay let's go miss please to him until this game edition game right now. Now that game really works with telling jokes written.

Seeker

Okay. Can I just see something because the following thought was I want to stop believing in my thought but in these thoughts there is an individual you know not even this kept them all coming so I'm gonna go the wrong is it feels like you have a choice. The only choice you must make is to not go and then it will also be seen that even that was just creates itself.

Ananta

So now he plays it being all of us candies he just got to be open completely. Oh everything can come and go and that which we came on to or grass that we expose that we expose. Don't judge yourself. Don't... it doesn't mean anything about you. It could either see this idea or the vilest it doesn't matter because you know mine Kelly I do so just remain fully open to everything, everything, everything and these thoughts can also come and go but that which we feel like clinging to this concept still you expose them to achieve a loud deep deal three two one stop.

Seeker

I have no thought. It's a goat. Why do I have so many images in my head? I have to finish to translate vested in sky today. You take everything as well from us and you burn all of it for me. That was like a burden seeing you like this. That belief believed idea went on for months just and somehow found peace in this. It's not as limericks coming to distance its us what god it's October so girl open open open.

Ananta

Let us we have to come to see the only concept which is continuous is that me I am existing. So that what is important and we can rule and come all the Constitution get also nobody to own them nobody. This is also a thought but nobody warning that so I'm not really going to comment too much on all this also that this one is worth investigating. Stick it in someone that who wants nobody to on anything they see this ain't worth investigating likely and seeing whether it is not thief itself posing as a policeman wanting to catch a thief.

Seeker

Maybe this breaking the idea of being a separate entity because like she says this is the top oh yeah but it is distorted. I have to go to work, get back to work, have to do that so that again you know boils down to like being a separate person you know in this idea so likes tequila it's always there. This analogy had a point of peer awakening there was a clear point it shifted for a lot of masters I mean including humans that God gives them that tortoise he had like that so it should happen here also some benchmark like being pushed away but it's the mind people since the report houses let's go get some belief some meaning is there in that reporting.

Ananta

Okay so empty empty empty empty until TLT open open open and just report the exact posture at all the exact classroom that's really gonna shine your light on it. It's reported as it places. Am I making myself fully available? Just the thought. Who some of these can sound so I put in I feel like it's important for me to say just a talk Celtics hitting everything is also just a card. Something needs to be taken care of is also just this is delusional hot sunny is definitely a time I should not feel contracted him. Contacted just a talk. Any sensation entertaining I mean the sensation anything just a thought. I could say that this kind of things sometimes seem to feed on the thought itself believe in the thought maybe we don't even have to think about it before.

Seeker

Yeah it's this everything's misconception. Yes there's the thought you were just another concept it was spooky. Is there a non concept concept you could often only get this sense like how is it for you this game isn't if the fear six-digit are as different is also justified. I wish I would be able to see each thought as a thought which is just a thought.

Ananta

This it's time to give you some valid conclusions but they're just talked because she is very sparse anyway. Why did consciousness had to die in this? We open open open. The game is not to final thought we did not find it is you still remain as open and as empty as possible and when these come and go I suppose the one which you feel like you to cling on to. I'm always complete with a minefield completely and complete is just a feeling just thought the relax goes to I needs to understand I need to understand this at all yeah I'm leaving apartment really this empty.

Seeker

There's a Thor life kind of not to take things seriously.

Ananta

What is the top? The concept of it's kind of like there's this like I can see sometimes mama presents some kind of thing which has been seen as serious and then there's like a thought that comes it says none at all taken seriously which is also a thought. We playing this game teaches him. The game is like open empty and allowing everything to come in go. Suppose to be these thoughts they come and go and if something if you live you must cling on to it but this is definitely meaningful and valid be exposing that to the thought that nobody's here to whole thoughts. Now it's fine because I think um just express gratitude arises in the mind says yeah he's the glue listed then it'll be a new feeling like you shouldn't say it just to talk but this is really meaningful.

Ananta

Nevermind attempt is to convince us that which is more than the coordinators more meaningful than just thought and some of our favorite ones we don't like hearing is just a powerful let's just feel like this is true palate. We looked over and over that a thing like something that truly represents reality we a concept that represents reality is just not found. Is a sensational concept? The label transition is a constant because yeah there is the thought I am here and is it not just a thought? It was a magical the feeling is not saying so that s

Ananta

Which is more than the coordinators, more meaningful than just thought. And some of our favorite ones we don't like hearing is 'just a thought.' Let's just feel like this is true. We looked over and over that a thing like something that truly represents reality—a concept that represents reality—is just not found. It is a sensational concept. The label 'transition' is a concept because, yeah, there is the thought 'I am here' and is it not just a thought? It was a magical feeling, but the feeling is not saying so. Something identifies the construct precisely as it is appearing as the thought itself. And they report that nothing good thought back toward no judgment about anything at all. You're just checking for: what is the thought that we are clinging on to? Those which come in, who are coming in—all the world can come in this space. Any thought can come and go. All the world can come and go, and nothing happens. Everything is in what everything else heart is also just a thought. Then what? I'm losing our Google Talk. The thought is: what is the point of knowing this is just a thought? It is just a thought.

Ananta

So too, it will be a contradiction to check: why does a simple statement like 'it's just a thought' sometimes feel like an attack? They look at it and you see it's just a thought, and it's not even being said. Whatever we have to cling on to as a thought, we're saying is just a thought. 'What about the sensations, feelings without thoughts?' Yes, that is just a thought. 'What about conditional feeling without thought?' Is a thought. You define me before dismissing. The final beat you require is missing. Don't know exactly what I am, so why are you dismissing me? Just okay, it is a thought. So because it don't say it just as a thought, it is a thought. Even then, it's actually not exactly what if you—yes, if you will admit that it sounds easy, it is the thought. But don't know what anything is, not just this. What do you know when you know nothing? So what to do? I hadn't seen this one.

Ananta

Any conclusion that you're hanging on to, any idea that you are in a particular state, can be exposed. Any notion that that's open—'Oh, this is pretty cool, what's going on?'—is a thought. 'I have dismissed all other thoughts'—exactly a thought. And a thought is a thought by definition. That there are degrees in thought is also just a form. How can you go on to be jumping an additional? It is a thought. Kind of authority says, 'I don't know if of these practical thoughts should be there.' That is sticky now. If thoughtlessness is a difficult task, but probably pros and cons is the issue. That means had Lincoln or Hanlan this issue is just—it's just is open to everything comes and goes. 'Oh Father, this is very perfectly and you sell theater.' How did it along with it is easily peek? Not go bad if they knew this simple piece of information. So many people may not command is to just move this simple piece of luggage. You were saying, 'Thank you, I love you, you're just a nice toy with no see you again.' I guess exist. I know that I just exist. I just know that I exist. Oh, that's just stupid. I think is, yeah, all this idea this 'Satyam Shivam Sundaram' indeed. Boom. I about treatment is authoritative as wishes on just a thought. We defeated it. It can be only like this. Is it?

Ananta

Something is not buying it, you see. The title song, no, that's what believe and water defend league authority for and the opposite part little packages. There are no distinctions in anything. Everything is Advaita, non-duality. The thought clock has already gone before them, reached the place before the river. I both thought has already read that rate before. Well, it's the point of life if I'm just a conduit for thoughts? Become good, you look. Because it—yes, we boot my name. I said has happened, all gone open and empty. You see and marvel at the bomb. Is it a thought? Almost inclined to look like it's a cobweb of desire that leads to thought. Is it a thought? The reminders, the best wife in the world. It seems only the game have been misunderstood with the thought that you are coming on to, not that you are. I'm very not exposing runs over to this beautiful. We never thought succumbing hangers still getting some believe, but you're not exposing because like you're enjoying designer. Don't want what does it do? The thought is a thought. Army of you getting patterns and started to decline, complaining. What is the point of this one? How, when will it stop? They said nobody. It's a thought. Like the time I admit it's just a thought to justify experience without this class. Although experience to learn is a thought. It's just...

Ananta

Okay, when you're playing this game, just start natural, empty, open as we are without allowing everything to come and go. Thoughts which we feel like that's a meaning that we cling on to, those we expose. Believe that thoughts and confusions keep me alive. 'Keeping me alive' is a thought. Father teaches us willingly for so many years, was it play of God? It's just a thought. We'll give it to put this concept of thought where is which? Yes, madam, are you planning retirement either? Because I'm feeling a little hungry at home. It's not only two outcomes: either I emerged as a vegetable or the one something keeps referring back to someone sitting here. Body, we don't think me to thank you. No, no, it's a thought. A thought should be able to make better decisions. She shivers. Remember the disease in business, the property. Watch this. Denial tendency to danger, but what's a tendency of readings? A thought.

Ananta

Is everybody thinking pictures? It's okay. I can relate to all the thoughts. It's a thought to infinity. How many thoughts on a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck thoughts? He'd chuck as much as little chuck would be feel good even wood chuck could chuck thoughts. Is it Guru before the alum is probably to get rigor thoughts? He's a thought. My mind feels really okay. Oh God. The problem with the thoughts is, oh yeah, okay. What's up here? Like very boogita haunt of the hair, my side of the bogies and kingship. The mind's really resistant now, but as you keep bringing down the curtains on thoughts, a thought is really upset and you used me all you can and now you leave me poking fun of you. I know he told you that window, he's already walked away. Everything I see, Father's good to see, he's just a form. So why not even the trouble then, just have some fun? I want to do. Use this opportunity to expose her painful thoughts. Use the opportunity to expose walking through thought. Maybe Jesus well how am I?

Thank you all so much for being in Satsang today. Satguru Sri Mooji Baba Ki Jai. Anjali Jai. As Satsang is ending, we don't have to change the room. You don't have to say, 'Okay, now we go back to normal' or something like that. To me, it is a permanent state. Hello, Mr. Common Room. You should find the people, talk to them, clean something; it's fine. You noticed it; it's fine. We may not remain until... oh wait, no judgments, especially about actions from this object. The only remedy I'm hearing, like saying, 'Is it even possible to be like that?' It's not the special state you thought you have. You all had to have anything for a certain amount of time. We'll give the concern about apologies, keeping your mouth, support action that is happening to your hands. No, if you are lucky, what about that? It's not about the nice theater lobby. There is no call of absence, of course, as you do the same and you have this reassurance of this: all things are perfectly resolved.
