CALL OFF THE SEARCH
Freedom Here and Now
A film by Jim Lemkin and David Godman


"We already are That for which we are seeking."


Poonjaji, a disciple of Ramana Maharshi, realised the Self in the presence of his Master in the 1940's. Since his realisation, he has been communicating his experience to those who come to see him. This film is about freedom and enlightenment. Not freedom at some future date but, NOW. Harilal Poonja, also known as Papaji, is not going to tell you how to get it, he is going to tell you who and what you really are. And if you listen to him with a silent mind, you will discover: You are freedom itself.
This DVD captures beautifully Poonjaji as he discusses the nature of enlightenment and the impediments which seem to obscure it.

"Perfect awakening is possible here and now for very human being, regardless of background, practice or personal circumstances. You are already free! Anything gained afresh will be lost. What is Eternal is always within you as the Self, the unchanging substratum on which your hopes and desires are reflected. Thus the ever pure consciousness is concealed. In this twinkle of any eye the Self will reveal itself to itself once you have decided to abandon the hope and desire, the age old disease of the mind. Keep quiet. Don't stir a single thought and don't make any effort. In an instant you will discover that you have been always free."

WHO IS THE WITNESS?

"Who is the witness of all this activity? Who was the witness before the creation of the universe, before the beginning of the creator itself? Who is now the witness of what is going on? And who will be the witness after the dissolution? What is this witness?"

H.W.L. Poonja begins the satsang with an explanation about the witness, which in India is called Brahman. It is That which resides beyond time and cannot be described. It is existence itself, the one and only Reality which witnesses itself. Afterwards, Poonjaji shares a letter with everyone; then he talks about understanding and stresses that to understand is to think. The mind is that which doubts being That, and once it is quietened and silenced, what we actually are becomes evident. A dialogue follows about Buddha and the state of buddhahood, which closes the teaching on Knowledge.
The talks with Papaji were daily. Through his presence, his words, and his powerful transmission, numerous people have been able to become aware of the impersonal Reality which underlies the world and all experiences. This satsang was recorded on September 4th, 1992 in the hall, the Satsang Bhavan, where the daily talks with Poonja were being held in the 90's.

BEHOLD THE INNER FLAME

"How can you reject your own Self? It's not possible. First of all, you have to aspire to know It. It is always shining within your own Heart and is not located at any distant place. This is the flame which has attracted the minds of only a few people."

Poonjaji, who was a direct disciple of Ramana Maharshi, starts this satsang by explaining the three methods which enable the contemplation of this inner flame and what it represents. He also talks about the price to pay to liberate oneself completely: "The Master is a beggar, He only begs; He begs for your ego, nothing else. Very few people will give this alms to this beggar." In another exchange, and with a certain humour, he guides a visitor through her attachments towards the experience of peace. The dialogue ends with a deep and touching exchange about fear and about how to get rid it.
The talks with Papaji were daily. Through his presence, his words, and his powerful transmission, numerous people have been able to become aware of the impersonal Reality which underlies the world and all experiences. This satsang was recorded on November 26th, 1992 in the hall, the Satsang Bhavan, where the daily talks with Poonja were being held in the 90's.

FREEDOM FROM THE MIND

"You are already free. Then you say , "Yes, but..." Where does this "but" come from? "But" has come because you still want to understand something, and this cannot be understood... So, be free of all concepts. Then, accept that "I am free", "I am bliss". You have to do it in this very moment, don't postpone."

In the first extract, Poonjaji explains renunciation, which has to do with the mind and ego. The questions asked by the visitors bring about a deepening of the topic. The effects of the satsang are highlighted by a visitor who complains that he loses its benefits when he leaves Lucknow. So, Poonjaji stresses that old habits can resurface but that tranquillity and silence are most important. They are what makes one strong in the face of life's difficulties. In the last extract, Papaji insists on the importance of not trying to understand. The compilations ends with a song in english about the work of love.
Dialogues with Papaji, a direct disciple of Ramana Maharshi, were daily. Through his presence, his words, and his powerful transmission, numerous people have been able to become aware of the impersonal Reality which underlies the world and all experiences. These six extracts were recorded in the hall where the dialogues took place, the Satsang Bhavan. They are a selection of exchanges on the Truth which Poonja held in the 90's.

DEATH AND ETERNITY

"How can we have liberation? We have to see, we have to find That which is changeless and immaculate within ourselves. Our natural state of being is love, knowledge, bliss and existence."

Fear of death and how to get rid of it, since all human beings are afraid of it, is the main topic of this compilation of questions and answers. Poonja explains that any concept, including those of birth and death, is an obstruction to awakening. He thus encourages the seeker to aspire to the Eternal which dwells in the cave of his Heart. The rest of the DVD deals in depth with the mind, attachment and identification. In the void of a quiet mind, there is neither mental activity nor ego. Poonjaji also talks about silence, because at the background of the unceasing chattering of the mind, we are always silent. He also explains what happens when the Master dies. The compilation ends with a devotional song in praise of the Lord Krishna, under the names of Govindas and Gopala.

IT'S SO SIMPLE!

"When you think, the mind is playing and you are not free. Don't stir up, don't give rise to any thought. Also, do not make any effort to stop the thought. And then you are there, you see. So simple!"

Poonja explains the meaning of "keeping quiet". He also talks about love and surrender which happens the way a river abandons itself into the ocean and loses all identification. The true Guru never gives orders. The look of the sage is enough to make one see the Truth. The veil between you and God is only doubt. Remove this doubt and what do you see? This DVD ends with a song which praises the meeting between Poonjaji and his Master, Ramana Maharshi, at the foot of Arunachala.
Dialogues with Papaji, a direct disciple of Ramana Maharshi, were daily.

MAYA

"To cross this ocean of suffering called samsara, you must have a raft. Satsang is this raft. Once you are on this raft, you need do nothing and nothing can bother you. The secret of satsang is revealed in this split-second. All desires are fulfilled – not abandoned – but fulfilled. Nothing more is desired. You have it all."

According to Papaji, maya is "all that is and all that is not... the complete illusion in imagination." And with total, absolute, 100% watchfulness it is possible to see maya for what it truly is. With this awareness, with this attention to the experiencer without reliance on any practice, any method, or to any past or future achievements, you will discover in this split-second, who you really are. The secret of true happiness is revealed in this knowledge.
This DVD is a compilation derived from Papaji’s public satsangs given on November 24, 1992 and August 20, 1993 in Lucknow, India.

ARUNACHALA  GIRIPRADAKSHINA                          1 DVD
A complete circumambulation of one of India's most sacred mountains
to the melodic singing of Sri Ramana Maharshi's Five Hymns to Sri Arunachala.


The mountain Arunachala is situated 125 miles south-west of Madras in the State of Tamil Nadu in India. It is famous throughout India as perhaps the most sacred place in the world, and now in the West as the home of Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi known as 'The Sage of Arunachala'.
Arunachala Giripradakshina was created for devotees who enjoy going around Arunachala and the Monday evening Tamil recitation [parayana] at Sri Ramanasramam. It contains footage of Arunachala, filmed between 2000 and 2005, taken from 72 different locations around the Giripradakshina outer path, the inner path, the eight most important shrines [Ashtalingams] and the Deepam beacon being lit at the summit of Arunachala.
To perform Giripradakshina [going around the mountain in a clockwise direction] with mind fixed on Arunachala, is said to be the most spiritually beneficial act that anyone can perform in their lifetime. The captivating power of Arunachala, even to complete strangers who know nothing about it, is legendary. Just to be there brings silence to the rampant mind; to meditate on it brings liberation. This DVD is dedicated to those who seek true freedom.

Ishwara said:
– I truly abide here on earth in the form of an effulgence named Arunachala for bestowing the attainment of liberation.
– Since this hill removes the cruel heap of sins from all the worlds, and since bondage [runa] becomes non-existent when one sees it, it is named Arunachala.
– In ancient days, when a fight arose between Brahma and Vishnu, who were both born from a part of me, I manifested myself in the form of an effulgence in order to remove their delusion.
– At their further request I, who was in the form of an effulgence, became the motionless linga named Arunachala.

RAMANA  MAHARSHI                           1 DVD
THE ARCHIVAL FILMS | 1935 TO 1950

If we reflect on the spiritual Masters that most influenced the last hundred years, Sri Ramana Maharshi stands out as one of the greatest seers of our age. More than sixty years after he shed his mortal frame, ever more seekers from around the world are turning to the sage of Arunachala for guidance and grace.
From 1935 to 1950 a number of visitors to Sri Ramanasramam took films of the Maharshi in his ashram. Taken mostly by his devotees, these films give us a rare glimpse into the life of a fully enlightened sage who, in the 20th century, lived liked the illumined rishis of yore.
The series of films has been arranged in chronological order, starting November 29, 1935 and ending on April 15, 1950. Over the years these films were subjected to the climatic extremes of southern India, which caused considerable film deterioration.
In 1990, the complete collection of archival films were brought to the USA for restoration, preservation and editing. In all of the film footage, only two sections were professionally produced by the Indian Information Bureau as newsreels and shown in cinema houses throughout India.
These films are a visual documentary of the eternal Truth embodied in a man made perfect by virtue of a unique destiny. Spiritual freedom, eternal peace and joy can be realised by those earnest seekers whose destinies are linked to the sage of Arunachala, Sri Ramana Maharshi.

MA  ANANDAMAYI                            1 DVD
HOW SHE REVEALS HERSELF

The central theme of her teaching in endless variations was, "The supreme calling of every human being is to aspire to Self-realisation. All other obligations are secondary."

RUMI                                          1 DVD
POET OF THE HEART

I am so small I can barely be seen.

THE  MESSAGE  OF  THE  TIBETANS               2 FILMS ON 1 DVD
BUDDHISM
TANTRISM
A film by Arnaud Desjardins

Arnaud Desjardins [1925-2011] met His Holiness the Dalai Lama for the first time in 1963 and gained his support to shoot these two films. All the most revered Masters agreed to participate in the making of the films: the Dalai Lama in person, Kyabdje Trijang Rinpoche, Kyabdje Ling Rinpoche, Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche, Dudjom Rinpoche, the XVIth Gyalwa Karmapa , Dugpa Tupse Rinpoche, Chatral Rinpoche, The Yogis Abo Rinpoche and Lopon Sonam Zangpo, the Sakya Lama Trizin, Tai Situ Rinpoche and Shamar Rinpoche still adolescent, and many others eminent Masters.

"I am delighted to have been able to watch the English version of The Message of the Tibetans, which consists of a film shot by Arnaud Desjardins in 1965 and 1967. It provides us with a living document of some of the great Masters then living and also of children who as adults today have the responsibility of carrying on the Tibetan tradition. I myself was only thirty at the time and like most of my compatriots had little experience of the outside world. However, we were all determined to work hard to preserve our unique culture, particularly our rich Buddhist heritage. Today, when we look back, we can note with satisfaction the achievements we have made in educating our young people and preserving our cultural traditions and values at at time when they are under threat of extinction in our homeland. Tibetan culture, as this film shows, places great importance to compassion and nonviolence. It is because of these essential humane values that I feel that we have a contribution to make to peace in the world. So, the Tibetans' message is that it is not the possession of wealth and weapons, but whether you have patience, compassion and concern for others – that is the source of peace and happiness."

J.  KRISHNAMURTI                                         2 PARTS ON 1 DVD
THE NATURE OF THE MIND | DVD 1
April 16 – 18, 1982

Four discussions took place in Ojai, California between the religious philosopher J. Krishnamurti, the physicist David Bohm, the biologist Rupert Sheldrake and the psychiatrist John Hidley. The purpose of these discussions is to explore essential questions about the mind: What is psychological disorder and what is required for fundamental psychological change? Is it possible to understand the mind, the nature of consciousness, its relationship with human suffering and the potential for change?

PART 1 | THE ROOTS OF PSYCHOLOGICAL DISORDER
PART 2
| PSYCHOLOGICAL SUFFERING


In these first two parts consideration has been given to the process of self-identification. A range of subjects have been related to this process including the problem of suffering, the role of thinking and memory, images and the uniqueness or commonality of consciousness. Can these processes be observed and what is the relationship of observation to order, responsibility and change? They discuss whether it is possible to live in this world without conflict and whether the need for psychological security is the root of all one's problems? They explore what is meant by security and try to discover why we get hurt. They discuss how we have an image of ourselves and take it to be 'me', take it to be real. From that, arises the fundamental question: whether it is possible not to have images at all? So, what am I, what are you and what is each one of us? They ask why do we want to 'become' and whether it is not just an escape from what is? They conclude by stating that as long as there is this divisive process of life, there must be conflict. In division there is isolation, in isolation there is no security and therefore there is no order.

THE NATURE OF THE MIND | DVD 2
April 16 – 18, 1982

PART 3 | THE NEED FOR SECURITY
PART 4
| WHAT IS A HEALTHY MIND?


In these last two parts, they begin the discussion by seeing whether there is there such a thing as absolute psychological security and try to discover what it is that makes people ask for security? They discuss loneliness, the desire to be free from fear, anxiety and agony. They ask that If one really loves, is there a need for security? It is proposed that maybe unconsciously we know that the self is really totally unstable in its nature and therefore there is this anxiety for security and as a result we seek something absolute which gives complete contentment? Krishnamurti remarks that when there is perception of that which is true, that very truth is sufficient. They then look into the nature of thought, at the difference between attention and inattention and inquire into analysis and observation. They ask the questions: what does 'being' mean? Is it the opposite to 'becoming'? Does 'being' imply 'non-movement', which is without thought and time?
They end their dialogue exploring what is meant by a whole, sane and healthy mind and inquire whether it is a mind that is totally, dispassionately unattached, without any conflict.

THE CHALLENGE OF CHANGE
A biographical film of J. Krishnamurti

The Challenge of Change is the compelling story of a great religious teacher of the 20th century, from his childhood discovery in 1909 to his lifelong talks with large audiences in most parts of the world until his death in 1986.
Through the Theosophical Society of which she was the President, Annie Besant, who had adopted him and his brother, proclaimed Krishnamurti to be the World Teacher who had been historically foretold and expected by the Society. Krishnamurti rejected any special status when he dissolved the Order of the Star that had been set up around him, declaring that "Truth is a Pathless Land", and denying that there could be any authority in religious matters.
This remarkable story, told through archival film and photographs, is a valuable introduction to Krishnamurti's life and teaching. There are excerpts from his many talks, as well as an interview made for the film. He spoke not as a Master, but as one who called for the awakening of intelligence in all human beings.

ENDING ALL FEAR
Four Public Talks in San Diego, 1970

In these four talks, given in San Diego in 1970, Krishnamurti discusses the human condition and the structure of fear. He asks us to see if, while living in this world with so much chaos and division, we can find out what that source of the violence is and what we can do about it.
Can we get to the root of fear and end it – and without analysis, which involves time and thought and merely escapes from facing the fact? Is there an observation of all this without an observer preventing direct perception of the reality of the conditions in which we live and which we are? In awareness, listening with attention, can we discover what meditation is and see life as a whole that includes death as well as love?

DEATH
Conversation with Buddhist scholars and teachers at Brockwood Park, 1979

participants | J. Krishnamurti, Dr. Rahula, Feros Mehta, Dr. Parchure, Mr. Narayan and four teachers from Brockwood Park School in Hampshire, England.

"There is no division between life and death. When the body dies, the desires, the anxieties, the tragedies and the misery go on. They go on contributing to the vast common stream in which mankind lives. Each of us is representative of the whole of that stream."

J. Krishnamurti and the participants investigate together the topic of death. Each person goes through the same tragedies, misfortunes – humanity is one. Then, is there life after death? What is death? Who dies? What happens to the flow of emotions, to the name and form, and to the body after death? Is there anything which has not been created by man? Is it possible to be free from the manifested flow of emotions, name, form and body? "To find out what death is one has to live with it. Thought has created religious illusions, but insight is beyond thought. Insight is of freedom."

"By enquiring into the whole nature of suffering can X end it and be out of the stream ? The free enquiry into suffering is insight. As long as I accept any authority, Buddhist or otherwise, can there be insight?"

TALK 1 | IN THE PRESENT MOMENT IS THE WHOLE OF TIME
TALK 2
| AT THE END OF SORROW IS PASSION
Two Public Talks in Washington, DC on April 20 & 21, 1985


Although Krishnamurti had spoken for many years in the United States, he had never given public talks in Washington, D.C. In 1985, he agreed to do so and met on two days in April of that year with large audiences from diverse backgrounds.
There is a feeling in these two talks that Krishnamurti was communicating as much as possible of the teachings which he had been giving in many parts of the world for over sixty years. Once more he invited his audience to 'walk together, investigate together, look together at the world we have created'. In a revealing manner unique to Krishnamurti the talks go into the various factors of human consciousness playing a dominant role in our daily life. At the age of ninety, Krishnamurti spoke from the fullness of his insight and teaching.

SERIES ON EDUCATION
Five dialogues between J. Krishnamurti and students in England and India, 1983-1985

In this series of discussions, many of the students’ questions and comments are refreshingly blunt and guileless. There is a tremendous sense of affection as Krishnamurti explores their questions in ways that relate to the children’s own lives.
They talk about intelligence, security, meditation and concentration, the value of education and learning, and even God. Although denying being the teacher, Krishnamurti shows the quality of true teaching which lies in the relationship between the educator and the student. Often, at the end of the discussion, he invites the students to sit quietly with him for a few minutes.

If you have no mental images, then what is your relationship to the mind which is seeking security?

INTELLIGENCE, LOVE AND COMPASSION

HOW CAN THE BRAIN TRANSFORM ITSELF?
First Public Talk at Brockwood Park in England on August 27, 1983

In this first public talk, J. Krishnamurti explores whether it is possible to bring about a mutation in the very brain cells themselves conditioned for thousands of years? Either one says that it is not possible and closes the door or one says, "I really don't know."
Without any choice, am I aware that my brain is conditioned? He goes on to explore the nature of conditioning, which he says is essentially made up of experience and knowledge.
Why is the structure of the psyche essentially based on knowledge and what am I without memory? He concludes with the topic of whether it is possible to live psychologically without memories, and points out that the division between memory and the observer creates conflict.

ONLY IN PEACE CAN THE HUMAN MIND BE FREE
Second Public Talk at Brockwood Park in England on August 28, 1983

J. Krishnamurti begins this second public talk with the question: why cannot man, who has learned so much, live in peace? Is it because each individual separate soul is struggling and seeking for his or her own fulfillment? Must human beings, who think they are separate, each seeking his or her own form of security inevitably come into conflict with others?
He elaborates on the subject of relationship and asks the public whether it is possible in a close relationship, where there is a sense of affection, to live without conflict and turmoil? He then asks, can one live with another completely at peace and how do 'you' observe your relationship with another?
He ends the talk on the topic of looking and observing without any identity. He asks if this is at all possible and whether one can look at life not as a problem, but with a mind that is free from problems?

FREEDOM FROM THE SELF
Third Public Talk at Brockwood Park in England on September 3, 1983

In this third public talk, J. Krishnamurti explores the movement from "what is" to "what should be" – the psychological process of time – and asks whether it is one of the causes of fear? Realising that possibility, even intellectually, is it then possible to end fear?
He moves on to the subject of sorrow and says that sorrow is part of the continuity of memory. Can that memory, not only of my sorrow but of mankind's sorrow come to an end?
He then goes on to explore the possibility of living without any cause or future. He asks that if one was able to go beyond time, would there be anything to experience? Can the 'self', the 'me', the 'ego' – all the self-centered activity – which is the movement of memory, can that end?

WHAT KIND OF BRAIN IS NEEDED FOR MEDITATION?
Fourth Public Talk at Brockwood Park in England on September 4, 1983

The questions and topics explored by J. Krishnamurti during this fourth public talk are the following: What is creation? What is the origin of all existence? Was there a beginning and is there an end to all this?
To uncover the origin what kind of brain does one need? Is there a brain without self-interest? Have we a brain that doesn't belong to anything so that it is completely free?
Does language condition the brain? What is meditation, and what is order? Is meditation the feeling of complete wholeness and unity of life?
Is there something not manifested that has no beginning and no end?

THE CAUSE OF CONFLICT IN RELATIONSHIP
First Public Talk at Brockwood Park in England, August 1984

Can the cause of conflict be analysed? Is the analyser different from that which he analyses? Analysis is a wastage of energy.
Can one have an insight into the cause of conflict? Is the cause the division between what I am and what I should be? Can only the few be free of it?
What is this enormous energy of thought? Thought can imagine the limitless, but in itself it is always limited. Do you try to find out what thinking is or do you listen, which means a quality of silence?
Is there love in our relationships? What is the cause of conflict in relationship? Is it the knowledge that we have of each other?
Inwardly, is there security at all?

SEEING FEAR AS AN EXTRAORDINARY JEWEL
Second Public Talk at Brockwood Park in England, August 1984

If all time is contained in the 'now', then what is our relationship to each other and what is action?
If there were no fear inwardly, would we have gods? Is inward fear born out of thought? If it is then what will you do with thought? Who is the entity that stops thought? Is it another thought?
Is time a factor of fear? And does security exist in time? Have you ever held fear?
In consciousness is this whole movement of time and thought. Consciousness is what you are. Consciousness is shared by all.

IS IT POSSIBLE TO END ALL SORROW?
Third Public Talk at Brockwood Park in England, August 1984

Is there a morality that is not relative, not limited?
Is there a freedom per se, for itself and not away from anything?
Are we at all aware of the great suffering of humanity, of each one of us? Is there an instant ending of attachment? Suffering comes when there is self-centred pursuit. If one is completely free from all sorrow then what effect has that on the world?
If there is no radical change, what is now will be tomorrow. Is there an instant ending of all suffering? Finding out requires the energy of intelligence.

THE NATURE, DEPTH AND BEAUTY OF DEATH
Fourth Public Talk at Brockwood Park in England, August 1984

Is there time in the very action of thought?
Beauty is truth as love is truth. Is beauty there when the observer is not?
Death means that you hold on to nothing. Can you live with death by not keeping life and death apart? Is it possible to live in this world daily with total freedom from knowledge, except where knowledge is necessary?
Meditation is to understand measurement, which is comparison. Can we live a daily life without any form of comparison?
Silence comes naturally when there is freedom
