i am a desire
i am the desire to have myself
and my self represents my desires
i am is more than i am a desire
i am a desire in a sea of i amness
but maybe i will find more than desire

man must only hold one desire: the one to be desireless. then the last of all desires will have ceased to exist.

Almost every awakened being said that awakening dawned upon them the moment they gave up trying to awaken. The desire to be awake can only take you so far, then that desire must be relinquished too.
This desire to be desireless is like the pirhana desire, it eats up all other desires...

I assume you mean passing on Mooji's teachings?
Anything i have ever said has been said a million times before.
The teacher who is awakening me is passing his teaching through me, and his teacher before him the same, spiritual teaching knows no plagiarism as the words are coming from no-one there is no-one pasisng on the teachings, they are coming directly from emptiness.
Your "onto me" lol, should i be afriad?
"This desire to be desireless is like the pirhana desire, it eats up all other desires..." Mooji
Does that really make you feel better now?

He lives in Brixton London, from Jamaica, although i would say he is from emptiness
His words are the easiest most simple way to awakening, he teaches the works of ramana maharshi & papaji (mainly self enquiry) but really grinds you down until you reach emptiness, the moment you are in his prescence with him you feel pure love, he reduces you to a child like state holding your hand guiding you to the ecstacy & unconditional love of emptiness, its kindof scary like your gonna explode all over the place.
I love him so much i cant wait til hes back in the country.
Checkout his youtube videos, dont think about them, dont listen to them, hear them.

Some cats here are saying you are not human if you think you know better then the thread poster. And shit like you need to be empty to attain this and that. ARG...
Way to fucking not give a crap!
Leave this dude alone... he came to some kind of conclusion on something and you all just assumed he was rambling or something. Like what the shit? It's like you assume you are enlightened one minute then say you are humble the next... get over yourselves, they aren't importent.
And plus, he said it workds both ways, can't anyone read between the lines?
BTW. Mooji is one cool cat.

Being empty does not lead to not caring, the complete opposite...

I have just watched a couple of those videos. It is inspiration to witness those who can speak and embody truth with simplicity. thank you for sharing.
This is what I meant, the desire for being free of desires is useful until it fills it's purpose, after that it can be let go of with the rest of minds concepts.

'Checkout his youtube videos, dont think about them, dont listen to them, hear them.'
I'll be sure to make a mental note.

I just watched his 'higher than that' vid.
'Who are you?? God??'
'I am higher than that.'
'Nothing is higher than God.'
'I am that. Nothing. Because nothing is higher than God.'
Sounds like another Caterpillar pile to me. Where we tryin to get to?? Higher??

“Strengthened by contemplation and study,
I will not fear my passions like a coward.
My body I will give to pleasures,
to diversions that I’ve dreamed of,
to the most daring erotic desires,
to the lustful impulses of my blood, without
any fear at all, for whenever I will—
and I will have the will, strengthened
as I’ll be with contemplation and study—
at the crucial moments I’ll recover
my spirit as was before: ascetic.”

I'm not sure.
Everything that humans have created so far is a result of desires. What has come before might have come to existance via the same drive.

It seems likely. Evolution is driven by a number of factors, including the desire to survive and the desire to mate. Organisms which do not desire are unlikely to live long enough to pass on their genes.
I've read some interesting thoughts on the cooperative aspect of organisms becoming multi-cellular, as well. Nothing very scientific, but it MIGHT have some basis in reality.
