Have no rights for anything.<br \/>\nThen everything is a gift.<br \/>\nWhen you don&#8217;t deserve anything, everything is a gift.<br \/>\nJust try.<br \/>\nJust for you. Okay?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"text_exposed_show\">This is not a political decision.<br \/>\nGive up this sense that you have rights, that life owes you something, and feel the space that remains. Maybe, initially, you will feel vulnerability like, &#8216;Oh my God, I can&#8217;t stand up for my rights. I will be abused.&#8217; But go beyond this feeling.<br \/>\nSacrifice it for a greater truth.<br \/>\nYou must begin to think with your God-mind.<br \/>\nGod does not have rights.<br \/>\nGod does not need any rights.<br \/>\nYou have to be like God.<br \/>\nGive up this sense you have rights.<br \/>\nYou wish to go all the way?<br \/>\nGive up pride also.<br \/>\nGive up future too.<br \/>\nIf you give up future, you give up past also.<br \/>\nJust for you. You don&#8217;t have to tell anybody.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"text_exposed_show\">And give up this dependency, &#8216;Who will be here for me?&#8217;<br \/>\nAnd give up projections such as, \u2018Yes, in two years time<br \/>\nI will be in a solid relationship and I will own my own apartment.\u2019<br \/>\nThere is nothing so great about that.<br \/>\nIt just keeps you being a sucker.<br \/>\nYou don&#8217;t want to be a sucker.<br \/>\nThere is greater than this to come.<br \/>\nYou miss the full adventure and power<br \/>\nthat comes from the Holy spirit if you start to choose for yourself.<br \/>\nIf you feel to choose for yourself, He will leave you to choose for yourself.<br \/>\nBut as soon as you give up this sense of rights; if you say,<br \/>\n&#8216;You give me the sense of choice. You are my choice,&#8217;<br \/>\nthen something else will happen.<br \/>\n<\/span>In the world nobody tells you this.<br \/>\nThere you have to be proud and say, &#8216;Listen, I have rights!&#8217;<br \/>\nWhen I have rights, the world has done me a lot of wrongs.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"text_exposed_show\">Give up pride.<br \/>\nPride in being a woman.<br \/>\nPride in being beautiful.<br \/>\nPride in being accomplished in something.<br \/>\nPride that you are a certain race, religion or nation.<br \/>\nGive up all of these things.<br \/>\nThey belong to the devil.<br \/>\nThey don&#8217;t belong to you.<br \/>\nAnd experience what remains.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"text_exposed_show\">A great space will open inside your Heart.<br \/>\nHuge humility.<br \/>\nHuge acceptance, love, wisdom and freedom\u00a0as you experience integration with the cosmic being.<br \/>\nAnd no force on earth can manipulate or bind you, because you have made yourself empty of all that makes a &#8216;person&#8217;.<br \/>\nWhy think it is so great to be a person?<br \/>\nFor a while we have to taste that state of personhood,\u00a0but there must come a time when you return to purity.<br \/>\nCome back to your purity, your original being!<br \/>\nYou ask, \u2018How?\u2019<br \/>\nCollapse at God&#8217;s feet. This is no ordinary fall.<br \/>\nIt is not falling down.<br \/>\nIt is falling upwards into the embrace of the Living God.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"text_exposed_show\">\n<p>~ Mooji<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It is not a habit for me to share things I find online, but this was just too beautiful not so share.
