More interesting tit-bits from the Moo Sangha Facebook page; always an entertaining page and well worth a look...
A fellow by the name of 'Micheal' posts this, in response to Moo's denial of allegations:
"Ramana Maharshi would not have needed to defend himself, as like you say he was beyond the need to do so. I am not sure why this broadcast was aired in the first place, as if it is not true then there should not be anything to defend other than an ego which is apparently not supposed to be present or active in Mooji.
Also if there was no ego present then comments would not be disabled in you tube videos or spiritual blogs.
Also Sri Ramana even if alive today would never charge devotees like the modern day celebrity style guru's do.
David Godman has openly stated that Mooji is not fully awakened or enlightened on a you tube video. He has studied and researched the teachings of Maharshi for many years, so he is certainly qualified to have an accurate perception of what a truly enlightened being is.
I once believed that Mooji was the real deal and a true guru or sage, but now sadly I can see beyond the veil of this pretence.
Whether these accusations are true or not is not something I am prepared to believe or disbelieve, but I fear that many people are now starting to question the validity of Mooji's pointings or authenticity, which after a while become extremely repetitive and non expansive.
Despite this I still respect and hold some affection for Mooji, but I am afraid his teachings no longer serve myself or my evolution anymore benefit.
Namaste"
I love the use of the 'Namaste' at the end of the post. A nice sarcastic touch! Micheal is obviously becoming disenchanted by Moo. The Moo Cult followers jump in quickly to denounce Micheal, saying "You are in your mind". How original! "You are in your mind", indeed...
Just one little question for the non-dualists out there - Don't you also have to "be in your mind" in order to judge someone else as "in their mind"? Just curious.
'Micheal' is not deterred, however. He stands up for himself.
Then poor old Micheal is accused of being a troll by a Cult follower by the name of 'William". In response to William, he writes:
"You are welcome to your opinions and I am welcome to mine, so let's just agree on that if nothing else. This is the first time i have ever replied to any status in this group after over 1 years since being accepted to the group, so i am not sure how that qualifies me to be classed as a troll, and not everybody who has a different opinion is a troll. Its called freedom of speech and opinion, so it sounds like you are projecting there, as who is repeating what everybody else wrote. You are quoting and believing what 30,000 other people are quoting in this group, but i need not apologise for having a different viewpoint then the majority. I have followed and listened to Mooji for years, and still believe he is far more awakened then most beings on this earth including you. I am however entitled not to stay limited to the teachings of one when there are many other wise teachers, sages and gurus who I have the freedom to follow if I so choose. Maybe the most valuable pointing he could teach you is to remain quiet and as the self, so if you are not able to do that without being insulting then maybe you've still got much to learn. Namaste"
I'm sure this particular conversation will get censored pretty soon! The Moo supporters turn on themselves.... while we here at Cult Ed don't have to lift a finger...
