Satsang with Mooji

I had not heard of Mooji before I came to India, but apparently he's a big deal in the world of gurus!

Mooji was was holding free satsangs my first week in Rishikesh.  A satsang in Indian philosophy means the company of a guru with an assembly of people who listen to, talk about, and assimilate the highest truth. You can watch some of Mooji's satsangs here.

I went to one of these talks and was impressed by his presence. It was not necessarily because he had answers to all the questions, but rather because he was able to hold a safe space for people.  He acted and spoke with such genuine grace and compassion to those who came to ask him some difficult and sometimes heated questions. And that is a true mark of a wise man.
