An Important Letter from Shree
Managing Director of Monte Sahaja
Dear Sangha,
My name is Shree and I am the Managing Director of Monte Sahaja. I am writing this letter to the worldwide Sangha; some of you may know me from the opening announcements at Moojibaba’s Satsangs. It is rare that you see me outside of those moments, as my work often happens behind the scenes. But I feel the time is right for me to speak up on the topic of hateful slander on the internet, directed at Moojibaba and our Sangha.
I speak with the experience of 18 years of not only knowing Moojibaba, but living and working by his side. I have been living in Monte Sahaja since the first month of its existence; I came to help out for a few months, and felt so fulfilled and nourished that I remain here to this day.
When I met him in India in 2005, Mooji was known by only a few who accidentally discovered him, sipping chai in a chai shop, and were so touched by his presence that they asked him some questions about life and Truth. From there, it has grown organically and today, millions of people have watched and benefitted from his Satsangs freely offered on YouTube. Mooji has traveled far and wide offering Satsang to those who invited him – those with a thirst for his sharings. Thousands have met him in person in the Satsangs that he has shared in cities around the world.
For those who have never actually met Mooji: It is not uncommon for Moojibaba to spend 16 and more hours a day with people from our team, working on one project or another, sharing Satsang, and so on. There is no division such as ‘his life’ and ‘satsang’. They are one and the same — an unending flow of genuine caring service and love.
RESPONDING TO HATEFUL CONTENT
Most of you are blissfully unaware of what is happening on the Internet, and for that I am happy. But for those of you who have seen hateful slander online, I must ask for your attention. Anyone who knows me knows that it is not my style to engage in personal retaliation, particularly to online hate groups, but I feel it is important for the sangha to know where we stand with the hateful behavior like you see in some online groups.
Sadly, lies, misinformation, and hatred are commonplace nowadays. It is rampant in our societies and particularly online, where people can hide behind fake names and faces, and sling mud while never showing their true identities.
It is abhorrent to me to have to list the things being said in these hate groups, but for the purpose of this letter, I must. There are accusations, for example, that Moojibaba encourages or demands worship and devotion to his physical form (absolutely false), that people are encouraged to leave their friends and families (absolutely false), that people are hypnotised and brainwashed (absolutely false), and most abhorrently, that there is sexual abuse and promiscuity advocated and practiced by Moojibaba himself (absolutely false).
WHERE DO SUCH THINGS COME FROM?
I have always wondered, who are these people posting such hatred and why do they have so much hate? I know that such actions are rampant in the world these days, and that public figures, particularly those who bring light into the world, must withstand attacks on their character. Nonetheless, it was still shocking to myself and to the sangha to read such fabrications.
Most of the people writing the posts are not known to us, and have no direct connection with Moojibaba nor the Sangha. The source of their negativity is inaccuracies and untruths, based on lies and misinformation or plain differences of opinion about styles of gratitude and spiritual instruction.
We know that some people joining these groups are very innocent, and easily believe whatever they read. This is rampant in the world today.
Some who post really believe in a personal cause, from their own past unpleasant or harmful experiences in other communities or with other teachers. They read about our community and our teacher, and it reminds them of a harmful or threatening experience from their past. Then, they take up a case against us, believing that we must be the same as what they have encountered elsewhere. They feel they are fighting a good cause — and indeed their own personal cause may be very worthy and valid. But they have no direct experience with our community.
When we see openness, we are very willing to reach out and speak, and often these misconceptions are easily cleared up.
But most importantly, some of the people posting are very aware of what they are doing: intentionally, skillfully and quite cruelly fabricating rumors and lies. They enjoy this. They are specifically targeting our community and Moojibaba. We are aware of the identities of a few such people. In some cases it seems that an unresolved misunderstanding or resentment from long ago festered and distorted over time into a hatred for Moojibaba and the Sangha. We see this in deliberate attempts to discredit him in any way they can, often with outrageous claims that are absolutely untrue or a twisted version of something quite normal that occurred in my presence.
Please do not take this lightly. Negativity and hateful rumors have a power to them. They can suck you in if you are not careful. You want to read more and more, and it is not healthy. You know from your own experience the feeling of lightness and peace that comes from reading something pure and true, versus reading lies and slander. If associating with certain kinds of activities or people makes us feel heavy within ourselves, it is best to avoid them, without judging them. You must decide for yourself what is in service to your awakening.
ABOUT MOOJIBABA AND OUR COMMUNITY, MONTE SAHAJA
We have sometimes heard our community falsely described as an ‘isolated community’, a ‘cult’, or a ‘compound’ where terrible things happen behind the scenes. I feel to share a bit about our life here.
Monte Sahaja is a community of more than 100 people from all over the world. We range in age from 23 to 70+. We are roughly half male and half female, coming from diverse backgrounds, economic standings and levels of education. What we have in common is our dedication to our own spiritual path, and our love for Moojibaba — his pointings, and his service to the worldwide Sangha.
Our community is unique. It is not a community for the sake of community living. We have come together to serve the larger worldwide Sangha that thirsts for the wisdom of Moojibaba, whose light is truly making a positive, lasting change in this world.
At the heart of our community at Monte Sahaja is a genuine love and care for one another. We are like modern day monks with our focus on our spiritual growth and understanding. We work together, serving the Sangha. And we also eat together, we laugh a lot and enjoy one another’s company. We are integrated in the local community here in Portugal; we live here. Our family members from all over the world come to visit us. Many of them begin to follow Satsang and return home with great love and respect for what is happening here, as they see we have grown tremendously thanks to the guidance of our Master.
We see real and lasting change in ourselves and in one another. It is a beautiful life. Actually, it is through our work and our life together that the Satsang really does its magic. It is in the day-to-day ‘stuff’ that our personal issues show themselves, and with such a supportive community and with the presence of the pointings of Moojibaba, we can see ourselves in a true light and rise above. And, this kind of miraculous and lasting change is happening all over the world, with those following Satsang with Moojibaba from their homes, and in the many sangha groups that gather together around the world.
In closing, dear Sangha: we do not intend to be responding ongoingly to such online campaigns. But it is right to speak up for those whom we love around the world, who want to hear our voice on this matter.
Please know that being part of such hate groups, even if you do not comment or go to them regularly, supports the spread of abhorrent misinformation, and contributes to its reach. When you come upon such negativity and hatred that contradicts your own direct experience, consider it as a moment to check the facts, check within yourself, and make your own inner stand with what you intuitively know to be true.
Sincerely,
Shree
Managing Director, Monte Sahaja
I went and read some of the things being spoken. I didn’t want to feed it but I also wanted to see what it felt like to tune in to their perspective and also to test my connection to Mooji’s teachings. I’ve generally been easily distracted from what I truly want so it was to be a good test for me.
I felt compassion for these people who are stuck in the wheel and when they hear such truths from such a pure place of love it hits too hard and they lash out.
I send blessings to their hearts and pray they find their way. At some point we all get tired of hitting the same wall and tending to the wound.
A part of my wanted to get closer to some of those people to hear their stories and gain comprehension but I see this would be a distraction from my important work at this time of being present for myself in these teachings.
This last intensive just allowed me to be introduced to Christ, to my Self, through Mooji ‘s practical and loving teachings.
I feel sincerely blessed in this lifetime to have a living master to help guide me. I’ve been praying for this for 30 years.
I look forward to sitting at sahaja together to be fully submerged in the trust of Pure Awareness.. the Supreme. I Am!
Thank you 🙏🏼
Dear shree. I am a new person to enter mooji Sangha. I am at present 67 year old and I am on spiritual path since the age of 39 years. I have got initiation from 4/5 spiritual gurus in India but couldn’t find peace and happiness. A few days back say 5/6 months back I happened to come across meditation video of Mooji baba on YouTube. I listened to the video and found it very helpful and satisfying. So I subscribed to the channel. Thereafter as a curious person I wanted to know more about Mooji baba so I searched the internet and came across the adverse things and I became doubtful and so I unsubscribe mooji baba thinking that he is a fraud. However thereafter with the mercy of grace I again happened to read your letter to the Sangha and came to know the truth. I again started guided meditation as per guidance of mooji baba and I am now daily doing this and find immense pleasure. I thank you for having cleared all the doubts. It is my earnest desire to meet mooji baba in person to get initiation.
Thanks and regards
Ashok Kumar
Dear shree,We know our our master is true.Truth is God.This life is in service for Truth!
May by Master’s grace let us be in complete surrender to that emptiness.
. Love shine from your words. Each one made me remember the experience of being in Sahaja and my choice to stay with Light!
Dear Shree, beloved Mooji Baba
at first I want to thank you all from deep within my heart for bringing so much light, joy and peace into my life! To me Mooji is the new Moses that Bob Marley was singing about. He could have the potential to lead the whole of mankind to freedom. And therefore the Babylon- system has recognized him as a dangerous enemy.
So now at first they try to spoil everything by spreading pure lies and desinfomation. It is paining me deep inside to hear about such wicked and evil campaigns going on against Mooji! But anyhow I feel that the Rastapeople are right when they say it is prophecy fullfillment time now and soon evilness will be exposed in the light of god all over the planet so that each and everyone can see what is going on!
I was loving Mooji from the first moment I saw a photo of him on Pinterest. Your mantra is Thank You was written underneath the picture. Since that time I have watched a lot of his videos on You-Tube and every time I saw him I could feel all the loving vibrations he was spreading. So it is just about checking the vibes if you want to know if this thing is right or not. But the wicked ones are so much ruled by their evil mind and their ego that will betray them at least that they are not able to check right from wrong. So it is like Jesus said: Father forgive them because they do not know what they are doing. Otherwise it will be like Sugar Minott was singing: … and they will feel so sick when Jah touch them with him stick.
All my love to you Mooji and the whole Sangha
guidance and protection

Thank you Shree, for bringing this kind of darkness into the light, and providing a space where we can speak about this.
This kind of gossip and accusations about great Masters and prophets are ancient old – nothing original here. If anything, this only shows the greatness of Moojibaba and that his pointings have true effect on humanity. Thankfully, I’ve never encountered this kind of gossip online about my Master. But nonetheless, it’s important to me to speak up.
In my own experience, Moojibaba is the probably the only one I’ve encountered that never ever asked anything from me, except to look within. He is the embodiment of purity, integrity and respect. All he ever does – tirelessly – is point to the light and power within myself. It’s because of Mooji and his wisdom, love and dedication to Truth, that I’m saved from a live of mistrust and suffering into an unbreakable peace and joy.
Everything in Monte Sahaja evolves about our liberation, in the most truthful and pure and direct way. It’s the most loving place and sangha I know. Sahaja is the once place where I can be totally naturally myself. If I could only covey how healing this has been.
God bless you Guruji. Thank God you’re here. So grateful that you came into our lives to show us who we truly are: pure consciousness. This world is a much better place because because of you. Glory to you.
Namaste Shree, and thank you for your letter.
I came across some misinformation about Moojibaba once, and it was disturbing and hurtful to read, but because it was not aligned with the truth of my own experience, I just let it pass. I’ve attended a few retreats at Zmar in the past 9 years since coming to Mooji’s teachings and pointings. My experience has only been absolutely beautiful, stunningly beautiful. My experience was only that of warmth, love, respect, kindness, and utmost dedication and professionalism, by all of the team. And the pointings have only had a profound, lasting, positive impact on my interior, and exterior experience of life, just as Mooji said they would. They have been life saving, and life giving. Moojibaba is a true living saint, the real deal, and we are so blessed to have him with us in our lives and in our Heart.
It’s good to speak up and address such things, if we feel moved to, but I also feel our most powerful position is just what Mooji points to. I can hear his voice say, “continue your practice, your silent sittings, to establish in beingness”. This is the most powerful “thing” we can do. I trust that this will have the most powerful impact, not just because Mooji says so, but because it is also what I am directly experiencing.
With much love and blessings to You, Mooji and the Sangha,
Mary Jane
What you write, Mary Jane, resonates here so much.
Thank you for this letter. I have been to Monte Sahaja several times and since I have met Mooji and his sangha I have found only unconditional love, kindness, empathy for all and especially for those who suffer.
His life is completely dedicated to others and to the truth. I want to express my complete support for Moojibaba and his teachings, and my wish that all ignorance will be dispelled in favour of Truth. A sincere embrace
Thank you Shree,
Thank you Sangha,
Thank you Monte Sahaja,
Thank You Moojibaba.
🙏
Namaste Shree
Thank you for this letter.
I am following Moojibaba for quite some time now and not very long ago, for the first time I came across this online negativity against Mooji and the Sangha.
Although I have never been to Sahaja yet and never had close contact with Moojibaba, I instantly knew that all this can’t be true. My mind bought into it and came up with all those doubts, but it didn’t take long to see that these were all just ugly clouds passing.
Moojibaba often says that the divine sends us things to test us in our discernment, maybe that’s what all this is.
I almost feel sorry for those people, being so caught up in their mind that they cant’t even see the light when it’s right in front of them.
I am forever grateful for Moojibaba and his team and Sangha in Sahaja.
Lots of love!!
Namaskar

I also want to say Thank you for the support of Mooji, Sahaja & the international sangha. After coming from practicing vipassana, I longed for this supportive energy field & am so grateful for Mooji’s love & dedication to Truth & for sharing it with us all. The openess to every being that comes, the naturalness of the pointings & the natural way of moving in daily life. Thank you for reminding us of the light where so often in the world it is reflecting separation and personal identity. Every blade of grass, every Stone at Sahaja is infused with the pure expression of love. Before I met Mooji, I never had the courage to look inside which such earnestness. Thank you for your sharing. May this sangha be fully blessed 🙏🌸
All love to you. I always love seeing your welcoming spirit at the beginnings of retreat so thank you. There has never been, nor will there ever be, a person who brings such light will not be challenged by the dark. Even if every one of these accusations are true, it’s doesn’t matter. The truth of the pointings is greater than the person they shine thru. We are humans. The pointings are larger than anything or person that this world can offer. I am not saying that I believe any of these accusations. Nor am I saying rise above. I am merely stating that collectively, the truth will always prevail, regardless of circumstance or judgement. Mooji is a supreme guide. I am forever grateful to all of you.
Thank you for this letter, dear Shree. I came across one of the messages when I was looking up something on internet and couldn’t believe my eyes. I spent some time in Monte Sahaja a quite a few times, so of course I knew it’s completely ridiculous. At the same time from the message it was obvious that the person believes what they are writing, and it bothered me how this is even possible. It’s very true what you write. And very sad that beings in Monte Sahaja have to deal with this.
But like it is said in John 1:5: In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
Guruji and Monte Sahaja are this light. Thank you for everything and God bless you all.

Beloved Shree, thank you for your letter. I’ve been to Sahaja several times throughout the years and every time was an intense and beautiful experience that bore sweet fruits. I feel I will never be able to thank Mooji Baba enough for his presence in my life, his love, and his kindness. His grace touched me deeply. Being in Sahaja and witnessing the way you move there has been most inspiring and life-changing. God bless you all.

Thank you Shree for your letter, I stand with Moojibaba and the sangha, I lived in Monte Sahaja for a few years, it’s a very pure, honest and open sangha full of love and kindness to one another and dedicated to serving those who seek truth, Moojibaba selflessly gives all his life to helping us recognise our true nature and find this peace within our self,I am very grateful to him and the sangha .love and blessings to my beloved Master Moojibaba and all the sangha
Thank you Shree for posting this , I was not aware. I have been following mooji Baba for approximately 7 years now and I have listened to all the satsangs right from I think 2014 I have very much respect for the master many things have changed in my life I feel so grateful that I got to meet him ; not on person but in sprit a gift of Grace….one day I was searching and searching and I said to myself okay I’m ready I’m ready to meet the master and they say when you’re ready the master will find you and then one day he appeared on my Facebook page and the mantra was “nothing” if there has to be a mantra “nothing can be a mantra “and that was the first time I had come across mooji baba… we all know that light will prevail …again thank you for posting this and yes I agree that you read negative you can maybe perhaps fall into it…. you read light and you become light ..I do agree with that and it is best that if you come across negativity once you’re aware that hey this isn’t, I do not agree with this you stop reading …bless you sister bless all of you all of you Sanga 🙏
I apologize ..the mantra was Thank You…if there is only one mantra for you let it be “thank you”…this was 7 years ago …I thought it was “no thing” but I remember now it was “thank you” 🙏
so beautifully shared “truth about our beloved Pointer”, thank u Mooji, Shree and all
Thank you to Shree and Siddhartha for these words of wisdom and truth.
These hateful allegations of my beloved Master are unequivocally false; they are baseless, absurd, and utterly detestable. Because of this, it pains my heart to even be talking about it and giving this any energy. And yet, it’s not only necessary but right to stand up for what is true.
I’ve been following Moojibaba’s satsangs since 2013 and have had the privilege of living both in the area near Sahaja and more recently on the land of Sahaja for many years now. Moojibaba is a great sage and it’s a profound blessing that we are walking with him at this time. Through his unwavering dedication to Truth, he is devoted to helping as many as possible to wake up, offering guidance that is both profoundly simple and yet life-saving.
In today’s world, it’s exceedingly rare to know of someone who is truly as selfless and pure-hearted as him. And yet, we witness and directly experience this of our Master every day — how his very existence is only for selflessly serving our awakening. Even on a human and practical level, he cares for each one so completely. His light is touching us all. Thank you, Guruji!
And Monte Sahaja is a true light on this earth, devoted only to this self-discovery. The community here, because of our Master’s guidance, moves in love, mutual respect, kindness, honesty, and selfless service. Due to this atmosphere of truth at Sahaja, I’ve experienced that anything untrue that might be playing inside is immediately exposed and cannot survive. Challenges naturally come, of course, and are an integral part of our satsang and opportunity in daily life.
God bless everyone and all those who are suffering from dark and negative states. And may blessings continue to shower upon this sangha.
I stand firmly with this sangha and in the light of my Master.
God bless you Guruji.
Oh beloved, do not be sad. Whoever can hate like this must have loved very much. The truth is unaffected by this. And it is of this truth that Mooji speaks, and not only he. Fear is only a very small aspect of the truth, like hatred, or insecurity. So do not worry.
Beloved Moojibaba, Shree, Siddhartha and Sangha,
What a strange and challenging time we live in with instant worldwide communication. How sad that it’s being such a distortion of all that is true and beautiful regarding Beloved Mooji, Sangha and Monte Sahaja.
I was routed to one of the hate groups on Facebook because of my following of Moojiji online. I was appalled and shocked by the hate and even seeming glee of people to disparage Beloved Mooji, beloved Sangha and Monte Sahaja.
It brought to mind here so much of the persecution and hatred of Jesus and his disciples, just on a much broader platform. As an elder I am not as ruled by social media as those born into it and it being prevalent in their daily lives. It’s been extremely disappointing to see how much negativity, shaming, blaming and pure hatred seems to exist all over the different social media platforms. Here it’s just intensified the need for truth and freedom. To rise above the identity that gets caught in these false egoic dramas.
I’m not clear if it matters or feels important to Mooji and Sahaja to try to do anymore to try to dispell the false accusations and rumors or not. An idea occured here that having a series of videos showing day to day life in Monte Sahaja and interviews with various Sangha members sharing a typical day might be helpful. There are some older videos on this sight where a few individuals are interviewed and it helped make the Sangha more real.
All I know is to deepen my commitment to following the pointings and continue to be an example of the love that burns continuously because of Moojibaba’s guidance.
May all beings find Truth and Freedom. Om, Shanti, Shanti, Shanti
🙏
Excellent, well done.
Thank you Shree for writing this letter and for shining the light of truth in the face of this despicable darkness. May it serve as an opportunity for each of us to stand firm in the truth we are.
I can’t tell you how grateful I am for Guruji. He saved me, because of his pointings and his love, there is an unwavering peace in my heart, and I am happy beyond measure. I have lived in Monte Sahaja for several years now and I witness daily that the only purpose for his life is to selflessly serve those in search of liberation by guiding us to the truth of ourselves. For myself, there is no greater example than Moojibaba of a life lived with integrity, love and wisdom. How he cares for each one he meets with such love and respect. He asks nothing of us and gives so tirelessly out of his love for all. This world is blessed by his light!
God bless you Guruji! What a privilege to walk this life with you and this sangha family. Infinite gratitude for you. I love you and stand with you always. Amara
Thank you so much Shree, for expressing these beautiful words on all of our behalf.
I met Guruji (Moojibaba) in 2015 in Rishikesh and the moment I came in his presence I experienced deep peace and love, which I never experienced in my life before, since then I have been following his guidance, which completely transformed my life. I have been visiting Monte Sahaja almost every year since 2016 and I experience the same divine love and peace in his ashram. I always feel that I am home, whenever I visit Monte Sahaja.
I am very sorry to hear these false accusations on Guruji. I would only say that the one who is in his/her heart can only recognize Moojibaba. Thank you so much Guruji for your love, Grace and light. Bless you
Love and Gratitude
Atmananda
Thank you for being a voice for us and expressing so truthfully with these letters, Shree and Sid. I fully stand with what you are saying, I stand with Moojibaba and us, the Sangha. I have been living in Monte Sahaja since 7 years and Moojibaba has saved my life and keeps on saving it every day. It breaks my heart to hear such allegations towards him, knowing no one more pure and honest than him. I don’t know anyone in this World with such integrity, love, and selflessness like him, and it is such a great honour to call him my Master. He truly gives his entire life to those who seek Truth and he has no “other private life”, he doesn’t keep anything for himself. I can testify to this through the privilege of living with him here in Sahaja for all those years. Thank you, Guruji, for this light you reveal in our hearts and which dispels all darkness.
Endless love & gratitude,
Kalyani
Namaste Shree, I love your devotion to self/Mooji/God. It’s always been very inspiring to me. There’s nothing that anybody could say that would ever change my connection to my father. He is my life, myself, I don’t know what I would do without him in my life. I am so incredibly thankful to you and the Sangha all over the world as well. There’s not a retreat that I have missed since I began with Mooji back in 2012. Sending you so much love and light. Thank you for your unending love and protective Shiva nature for our beloved Mooji.
Warmly, Kirsten
Thank you so much Shree for your clear and direct response.
I have visited Monte Sahaja many times over the past 9 years, and I have personally witnessed that what you write in your letter is completely true. I consider it a privilege to be able to live a life in satsang with Moojibaba as my Master, and my heart is full of gratitude for this opportunity. I stand for my Master’s integrity and I stand for the truth of his pointings.
His sole interest is to share his teachings with those who are called to him, and to support and encourage all that seek to discover their true nature to transcend the mind. He does so with utmost integrity, care and tireless love, and in fact makes it very clear that he has no interest in any personal connections whatsoever. He is only here to serve our awakening.
I have witnessed the team living in Monte Sahaja grow in openness, honesty, wisdom, love and maturity over the years in a way that I have not seen anyone else grow within the same time frame. This is a clear reflection of Moojibaba’s high standards with regards to internal attitude, service and ethical behaviour.
Through following Mooji’s teachings, I have discovered peace and contentment that I have never known before. He has saved me from a life full of suffering.
It is upsetting and painful to watch the negativity and hateful attacks directed at Moojibaba and his teachings on social media. Nevertheless I take it as an important opportunity to look inside myself to identify and transcend negativity, judgement, hatred and personal perspectives.
I trust and pray that we will use this opportunity to strengthen in truth as a sangha and in our seeing. That we are open to feedback, honest and defenseless in our interactions, and true to what we feel in our hearts.
With full love and gratitude
Nirvana
Thank you Shree and Siddhartha for your authentic sharing
There appear to be many atrocities going on in the world today and much deceit and attempts to manipulate, control and dominate people, it seems
It feels like what is presented is often an inversion of reality somehow
What is portrayed as light is often dark
and what is portrayed as dark is actually light!
‘Fair is foul and foul is fair’ Macbeth
Thank goodness for places like Monte Sahaja that are a beacon of light, truth, simplicity, love and peace.
Thank God for Mooji who’s humble simple life is dedicated to alleviate suffering and bring unity and awakening to the one indivisible True Self
Monte Sahaja is a centre for Self Realisation. A place for beings to come and awaken to their own true nature and find lasting happiness and freedom from the grip of the ego mind. Also it is so much more that a physical place – it is our own ‘natural state’
Ego identity is the real tyrant in this life and Mooji simply offers a way (as have many sages) to observe and transcend this tyranny and discover the pure limitless heart of being.
The womb of compassion
I have been around this beautiful sangha and Mooji for 10 years and been to many retreats and have stayed at Monte Sahaja several times for long periods
What a blessing!
Never have I sensed anything remotely like what has been described in some of these unfortunate misleading portrayals online.
I do not accept these as true at all.
I have always felt so blessed by this auspiciousness and the effects on my life have been so profound and beautiful. The vibration of love and light in the sangha field is so uplifting, supportive and inspiring. Creativity flows so harmoniously in the Sahaja and I have always experienced Mooji to be full of love for everyone and everything. He sees the highest in each one. In this we are truly one.
Any lover of God, any sage or prophet is so often attacked ridiculed and demonised by mainstream thinking. Why? Because the pointing is so powerful.
Look at Christ in the cross. Rejected and cruelly killed by the people
‘Forgive them Lord, for they know not what they do’.
‘Love your enemies’
God bless you all and may we all awaken to the simple timeless Truth
– I especially bless and forgive those who seem to want to slander or degrade such purity and grace
Thank to you – with so much love and gratitude.
All glory to God
Om Namah Shivaya

Thank you for your beautiful writing. It is very painful for me to even imagine anyone saying such horrible things about our Master. Indeed, I keep getting this invite to join a group in Facebook called Mooji Exposed. I never or will ever open it. It angers me.
I found Mooji 10 years ago by chance on You Tube. From the moment I heard his first words there was in me a recognition that I knew
This was my Master.
My dearest Mooji has brought me home.” You are always in my heart, never can we be apart”
The joy I see in the faces of all of you says it all.
I had everything ready to go meet him in person April 2020. Two weeks before, the world shut down due to Covid and everything was cancelled. I was heartbroken.
I hope I can go sometime soon or maybe he could come to the US.
I am 70 years old, since I was 14 yrs old I have had severe panic attacks
They started a year after I was sexually attacked. I have suffered PTSD since and had had decades of therapy and medication. Since my Master brought me “Home” I have had none. I have not taken medication or therapy in years.I made the decision to do so because I saw “nothing” happened to me. “I am” is fine..
I dwell in complete peace and I am forever grateful.
Jesus said “you will know them by the fruits” and those of us that know our Master will never believe anything like that.
I hope with all my heart I can personally meet him so I can give him a hug before I get too much older and not able to travel.
I want you to know that my transformation has touched my 4 children and friends. His love expands through every one of us.
Please give him my love and to the whole Sangha as well.
Vivian Balthazar
After 10 years that I have spent around Mooji and the Sahaja Sangha, one thing stands out for me:
It is the integrity of Mooji himself and the integrity of the Sahaja Sangha – integrity in spiritual as well as in daily matters -. What good fortune!
In gratitude for this divine blessing,
Amiya
Thank you so much for this letter Shree. I have been blessed to visit Monte Sahaja a few times. Moojibaba and Sangha have deeply impacted my life. I am so grateful for the love and clarity that shines through his presence and the power of the pointings.Monte Sahaja is a holy place.
Much love and Gratitude to the Sangha and our Beloved Master Mooji
Thank you dear Shree for your powerful letter.

The Prayer of Saint Francis of Assisi
…. Lord, make me an instrument of your peace:
where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
where there is sadness, joy.
O divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek
to be consoled as to console,
to be understood as to understand,
to be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive,
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
Amen.
Thank you so much for reminding about this beautiful prayer! I am so deeply touched reading all these comments — truly so much genuine love and wisdom in the sangha.
Beloved Master infinite love ❤️ to you. I have heard you saying about a song of Bob Marley “Only a foolish dog barks at a flying bird”. Many enlightened Masters have experienced these situations. Relatives and others tried to kill Buddha pushing a big rock. Christ was tortured and crucified. The relatives of Meera Bai tried to kill her many times. Shirdi Sai Baba was also attacked. Mohammad was stoned to death. Mansoor was also killed. Socrates was also killed. Osho was poisoned. The list can go on.
Prayers, love ❤️ and blessings to our beloved Master. And more prayers, love ❤️ and blessings to the beings who are in the darkness. May they see their weakness, see the play of the mind, see the vicious circle and be free of them. May they understand that to an enlightened being all these things are passing by, including they themselves. May they be bathed in the light of our beloved Master and be free.
It is a fact that many Masters have seen these situations passing by. And as disciples we are worried. May we remain alert, aware, conscious as our Master and be untouched by these negativities.
As Christ said “forgive them Lord, as they do not know what they are doing”.
Gratitude to you my Master 🌷 who has changed my life, because of you I know I have to remain as the seeing.
Koti koti Pranam.
Parvathi
From Shanti Ma
I am sharing this letter from beloved Shree because it is true and right and full of the very spirit that is also in my heart.
Moojibaba is a guiding light, pointing anyone, who dares or cares to look, to the truth. He offers us all the possibility to shed the false notions, concepts, ignorance that cause so much suffering and despair. The expansion and elevation of Consciousness is his only subject.
Moojibaba is the living evidence of truth and love. His full-hearted, generous, inclusive, loving and kind ways are uplifting the nature of his sangha and beyond. I live in the wonderment of my good fortune and gratitude for this.
He has made my love of God my way of life.
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Thank you!!!
Love to all Sangha-Members🙏🏼😌🙏🏼
As someone who just visited Monte sahaja ongoingly for 7 months, and also been there as a guest for 3 weeks, and as someone who now lives far away, i can testify, from all three “positions” that nothing from what is posted online by those people is true and that what dear Shree is expressing through this letter represents all of us, not just those who live in Monte sahaja for years, but also those who visit or stay short term like myself.
It is our choice to listen and follow our Heart to be there on the first place, Mooji baba’s pure and loving expression is what we call “satsang” , which means the transmission of truth. We haven’t learned to be comfortable with Truth. In daily life we struggle. So i can kind of understand those people who spread rumors. But i pray they will find love in their way and be able at some point to distinguish what is trully right and true and what is false, an illusion.
There is no doubt that Mooji baba is a living example of how we can actively live a simple life in Ttuth and see clearly all the rest and stop defending what does not serve the highest good of all.
The same applies to those living in Monte sahaja. There are people from many countries, cultures and background with a different way of expressing their gratitude, love and devotion to their Teacher, Master, Guru. Its easy for us who are not used to this kinds of expression to missunderstand it sometimes. But I can also testify that there is nothing there than just gratitude for what He represents, what He reveals, what He is pointing. And it’s a pitty to draw conclusions and make scenarios out of these expressions.
I wish you, if you are one of those people writing or even thinking in a hateful negative way towards this Teacher and this community, to focus on your life, find what is missing, you cannot find it by accusing others you dont know, or who you met at some point in life. No one can be blamed for your life. You can find truth and love I am sure. I trust this, because God does not let anyone out. You are with us as One, even if you can not see it or admit it at this point in life. Bless you to do so. Love, love , love.
Thank you mother for your letter. It is no doubt disheartening to know what you have said but I am not surprised. Because history is testimony to the fact that Because of Several Fake and Corrupt gurus (more so recently in India and abroad too)……. Great saints and sages have had to face false accusations. Those who have attended Vippasana would know that it is highlighted in their talks that Buddha was accused by a woman for carrying his child in open satsang. But Buddha remained unperturbed . Very recently in India this year a popular ISKCON head of Delhi Branch made several nasty uncalled for remarks against Swami Vivekananda who is revered world-wide. Fortunately their was outcry from public in India and ISKCON management sent the monk for penance. It is rightly claimed in the scriptures this is a worthless samsara born of imagination and there is diversity of opinions among great seers , saints and yogins resulting in mud slinging by lower rankers obviously to grow their own school of philosophy. This is the reason it is said in Essence of Yoga Vasishta that ” it is indeed nobler to wander begging about the streets of the outcasts( chandals : who burn dead bodies in India) , an earthen bowl in hand , than to live a life steeped in ignorance. What you have said very much dignified and I think it should be given wide publicity in media by devotees visiting Monte Sahaja and devotees in Utube etc and Advise may also be sought from Advocates in the matter to counter the allegations if possible in court of Law. Under no circumstances must the public get one sided manufactured view of the Great Sage like MOOJIBABA.
Namaste BELOVED sangha,
Today after getting an email with this matter, and reading Shree’s and Sid’s letters, I closed my eyes and prayed to Sai Baba of Shirdi, as He came to my heart and mind, asking Him for guidance to all of us and bringing this to His feet. Few hours later, received a message via Instagram feed posts that said: “Read chapter 18 & 19 in Satcharitra. It contains the answer to your question.” So I googled it and read it all. Found very inspiring and beautiful stories. About the inescrutable ways of a Guru. This extract, is from 19th chapter. Hope it brings light and love also to your hearts:
Jai Gurudev! Jai Moojibaba! Jai Sangha of Being! Jai One Truth! Jai Sai Baba of Shirdi! Jai Love!
Full blessings in any form they come, and full auspicious Intensive Retreat to all of us.
Thank you Moojiji, for all you are, flowering in every way, even if sometimes our minds doesn’t understand your perfect plan and sometimes we forget all is You, all is Yours, all is ONE.
This is Swarupa not Geoff !
My experience being in the sangha and close to Mooji has been life changing and there is nothing but immense gratitude for being able to be in Sahaja and in the sangha . The whole experience was not an experience but a deep opening to the truth and to what is here . I felt moved to write about it giving a day by day account of what arose as satsang in the heart of service abd in being part of sangha . Answering the call of longing was a response to what joy and privilege it was to spend time with Mooji and to experience such deep love he is always .
If you follow the truth you don’t listen to the mind ! And the gossip and slanders are mind . The Truth is Mooji is love itself and nothing can harm this . All love to the beautiful beings and to Guruji
Thank you for this inspiring testimony Shree.
It is so rare to receive guidance from an authentic living master who, not only is the embodiment of timeless scriptures from the different ages, but is also uncompromisingly committed to serving those who are inspired to discover their truest nature. And it is out of a gratitude to this life in Satsang with a Master and the profound effectiveness of his direct guidance- that I feel an importance to speak out in light of active campaigns of misinformation and slander.
For me Monte Sahaja is a beacon of light in this world that serves all seekers regardless of their geographical location or external life circumstances. I feel that there is no place on earth that is so solely focused and devoted to helping people search for their truest reality in this most ancient, yet ever fresh, direct path. I am grateful to have been back and forth between London and Monte Sahaja, since i first met Moojibaba at the end of 2015.
Reflecting on the different dynamic working environments in ‘the world’ that I have found myself in – I can say that I have never seen a serving team that is so humbly dedicated to the care and service of other human beings, as i have seen in Monte Sahaja. This is before we can even start to talk about the focus, creativity, devotion and attention that is given to serving seekers of truth/god/reality in the deepening of their Satsang.
This quality of the serving team is just the fragrance of the profound, selfless and true, existence that Moojibaba is. To even try and describe Guruji’s qualities seems limiting and futile. However from my interactions over the years, it is so clear – that Moojibaba only breathes and exists – to inspire the highest life – by providing unwavering encouragement to look in the most direct way and discover our eternal reality.
By God’s Grace, may those genuinely drawn to Satsang in search of a recognition of their truest nature be inspired and encouraged to continue on this most auspicious aspiration. May any distraction away from this purest of aspirations be seen through and transcended. And may those who have fallen under the influence of negativity and slander be healed to the best of their capacity to receive.
My dear Sanga family! With all my heart with you and confirm every word said by Shri. I have heard something about this in passing, this information is not appealing at all and the only thing is rejection. Those who are attracted to Satsang and who feel this fire of Truth through Guruji’s Satsangs will not be confused and confounded by brazen lies. Even though I have never been to Sahaja, the power of Master’s grace and the fire of Satsang has completely changed my life and my self-awareness. There is a peace and contentment in my life that I have never experienced before. And all thanks to my beloved Master Moojibaba and the general field of Sanga, to all the Sahaja guys who have so much sincere love in them and who have dedicated their lives to the service of Truth! Ignorance, slander and malicious gossip are not worthy of a drop of attention and neither are those who spread them. But a worthy response must of course be given. Truth will prevail and will be revealed to those who are open! What I would like to say to people who speak ill of saints and sages, the scriptures say that they bring misfortune and suffering on their heads. So it is better to check a hundred times before picking up gossip and spreading it. It is hard to bless such people, but God bless you, may God send you such lessons that will quickly lead you to enlightenment in the most direct way. All I can say is with all love, gratitude and respect to Mooji and our entire Sangha. 🙏❤️🙏
Grazie
May our beloved Gurudev, the Sahaja Sangha, and the wider Sangha around the world be only lifted up ever higher in a wave of positive vibration in gratitude and devotion to the Supreme and for the magnificent Light named Mooji that has come to guide us fully home. I’ve been blissfully unaware of whatever accusations were being made some years ago and whatever ones are reportedly being made now, and since choicelessly there is no doubt in me of our master’s utter authenticity, I feel no natural curiosity about it actually.
Babaji said a few years ago that it turned out to be good for the Sangha, because as a result of the accusations and insinuations, the ones who did not need to come, did not come. And it has certainly felt to me that since then the power of this Sangha and of Mooji’s guidance and of our ability to follow has only crystallized more and more.
Thank you Shree for this powerful letter, full blessings to all: that those in darkness encounter the light, that those in half-light be moved to full-light, and that we all be burned up completely in the divine holy white fire of the True.
Thank you, Shree, so much for this letter, it speaks from my heart, and I fully stand behind what you share. I’m living in Monte Sahaja for eleven years now, and I have never experienced or witnessed anything that the accusations against Moojibaba and the Sangha are speaking about. These accusations are false, none of them is true. I can wholeheartedly attest to the unwavering integrity of Moojibaba, and of the Sahaja community. There is absolute consistency between Moojibaba’s teachings and the way he lives and moves, and his commitment to fostering an atmosphere of openness, transparency, and respect is unquestionable. Everyone who lives here or who has visited cannot help but confirm this. It is so clear and so evident that Moojibaba’s life is fully and solely dedicated to guide us out of habitual and often toxic ways of thinking and behaving, and to help us to discover our true position beyond all these. Through his guidance I find inner peace, clarity, and rest. Eternally grateful to you, Moojibaba, my most beloved Guruji 🙏
Thank you Shree for this beautiful, clear letter.
Love and Light to all the Sanghas in the world.
Thanks to all who support us (who are not living in Sahaja) to be able to follow Mooji’s pointing by taking care that the audio, video and Satsangs are shown in their original form.
My experience visiting Monte Sahaja has always been uplifting and clarifying. I was amazed about the humbleness and realness of the people working there and I’m still so grateful that Mooji is alive and guiding us.
Blessings to the Sangha, to Mooji, to all
Thank you for your loving care Shree, for your courage and commitment to serving Love and Truth.
May this serve to love them back into their own God selves.
Love Bharati (Lin Bell)
Thank you Shree for posting, sangha for support and dearest Guruji not to give up, you are giving us lives!
Hatred and fear is very dense nowadays, I think many of us, true devotees also experiences different kinds of attacks, I do.
It is sad. Why God allows this?
Many Saints in the past suffered strong consequences spreading the Truth.
We can pray, that the Truth is staying stronger and beloved Guruji continues with His important mission. Please take us with you Guruji! The one, who is meant to be in the boat, will be. It is on Him up above.
With love!
The letter Shree posted is so true and timely.
It’s unthinkable that lies like these postings on social media could be uttered.
When meeting Mooji, one is enveloped in his love, presence, grace, his humbleness, silence, compassion and unending wisdom that radiates from him.
Having the greatest fortune of many lifetimes of living and working in sahaja for many years, being around Guruji, I only witness his never-ending selfless service to truth and awakening.
Guruji has saved the lives of many. Whoever allows his grace into their hearts can testify to this.
We cannot allow any lies or darkness to be spoken and to fall upon the greatest light, that shines with such unconditional love and wisdom beyond imagination.
May Guruji be blessed and always protected .
I am so grateful to read this letter with respect and love, and to choose the light that Moojibaba is shining on every step of our life.
Shree, you are speaking out for all of our hearts. I stand by your side.
I have been following Moojibaba for 10 years and been staying close to Sahaja for most of that time. His true connection with us is the heart connection. He asks nothing from us personally. Only the commitment to our self realisation. And this commitment is to our self.
My family is also so grateful to Moojibaba and Sangha for serving truth.
His love for us is unconditional. I have felt this love from my mother and father.
If we really want to know Moojibaba, then we need to really follow his guidance and meet him in our hearts.
Negativity only brings pain and darkness. The world is full of it. Thank you for bringing this light, love, joy and gratitude to this world.
Thank you thank you, thank you
Sri Ma
Thank you Shree ji!
Bless you always .
Bless this Sangha that Babaji has blessed us with.
Blessings to everyone and to those who have expressed the negativity unknowingly what MoojiBaba has Graced us with because it’s beyond words, bless them and may that they find their own light within.
Bless you Sangha
Jai MoojiBaba!
I meet Moojibaba back in brixton 1998, as a very simple man…and from day one , his presence, love , integrity, kindness, grace , have remained exactly the same, his endless love , wisdom and peace keeps emanating from him up to today, reflecting it to every human being he comes across with, is been and still such a privilege to walk with guruji , he is an immaculate example to human kind, and I can testify and have witness all this years what a magnificent his life contribution is to this world, endless gratitude for the positive impact that his guidance and presence have had in my life and still is , free and without conditions .
Love you guruji you are allways in my heart.
