Mooji – The Invitation: UVic Stillness Within Meetup Nov. 28th

November’s gathering brought a small handful of members out to enjoy a powerful recorded talk by Mooji, with a guided meditation which invited attendees to leave behind their projections of the future, past or judgements of the present moment and slip into a pure sense of being free of the usual steady stream of thought. 

During the group’s discussion of our own experience with relaxing away from thought, Krishnamurti’s guidance figured prominently.  One quote comes to mind:  “One is never afraid of the unknown;  one is afraid of the known coming to an end.”  A few of us have experienced this fear of ‘letting go’ during more meditative moments, but all expressed a deep appreciation for the times they’ve experienced of falling away from thought and seeing the world without constant judgements.  Mooji’s talk made the discovery of inner stillness seem easily accessible to all… a wonderful yet simple pointing!

This was a lovely session with a great sense of community.

Thanks again to the KECC for hosting the Meetup.
