Top Episodes Quotes
- “At some point, left onto ourselves, we would just drift also through that field, which is also much wider in its appeal than the physical world. But there is some inner guiding that we may not be so conscious of it, but it brings you to where you need to be, and then there must come from you.“ by Mooji
- “All human beings are in search of something. They don't know what it is. I say you're in search of this. All these things that come and go, something in this universe, and it's in you that does not come and go. The real challenge in the life is to find that it is here and it is you. It's real.“ by Mooji
- “I'm not a prisoner of the world, not a prisoner of my mind. It comes, thoughts come, feelings come, but they see in that they come and go. They cannot carry off what is fundamentally here. And actually the life is so much more harmonious and peaceful.“ by Mooji
