Sadhguru Explains To Scientist You Are Not The Body Or The Mind 

Its like wisdom and intelligence had a conversation

First time sadhguru is interviewed by right person.

Now this is called a Discussion. 🙏

This is so much more interesting than news or Netflix.

Sadhguru: "yes or no?" David: A G R E E D

That was the shortest 20 minutes of my life he speaks like water

I was sick and tired of conversations like my God against yours or my religion against yours types. This comes as a refreshing and enlightening

I'm so glad the interviewer knows how to be open minded and thoughtful

It's like consciousness and mind had a conversation

I've watched this entire interview countless number of times and everytime it gives me such a good feeling

Brilliant! Both the scientist and guru. The scientist asks many valuable questions that we all have and sadhguru helps to clear all these confusions in understandable language thank you both of you!

Why is it a good show? Bcos the interviewer has started seeking too , while interviewing

As a scientist myself, there is an unfathomable amount of knowledge that we still do not know, and some of that may be unknowable. The job of the scientist is to explore what we can through what means we can, but both of these are very limited. We’re still probing various areas of the Earth and discovering new species and processes. Make no mistake, most scientists are not the certain, arrogant pricks most people think of when they hear the word “scientist”. We are very aware of what we don’t know. We have to be or else there would be no reason to come to work and continue making discoveries and the technologies that may result from such discoveries. Sadhguru’s right though. Science, especially the medical research I’m involved in, has largely become product-driven. Exploratory science simply for the sake of exploration and knowledge acquisition is a thing of the past regrettably.

The part that he said the impression of"human society" as you know it helps you feel sane and sleep well at night is the barrier to greater awakenings hit me hard.

dude i love how they're arguing so peacefully, or rather a discussion

This Guru has an answer to any and everything. That just shows me how little science knows so far and how much work they still have to do.

17:44 ”once the body is dead no one is intrested in it” *Necrophila has joined the chat*

Thank god I'm not very smart! And thank you Sadhguru!

For the first time two seeking persons discussed reminds how sages in ancient India debated. Great beginning

I am a 23 year old Latino from the US and I find this extremely interesting

I'm from the UK and Sadhguru couldnt have said it more beautiful. Many thanks. With power comes great responsibility and balance. Mind Body and Soul.

My mind agrees more with the science dude But my heart is understanding to the guru

One of the few scientists who is willing to have a discussion/debate with a mystic without being condescending and has a desire to learn from them. I applaud this man.

Javed akhter are you listening, the real intellectuals are speaking In midst of real intellectuals

Sadhguru is sooooo patient with this guy. He keeps gently guiding him over and over to look inside and find the truth of himself as an experience of life and David manages to think his way right out of it effortlessly each time lol.

I had a brain injury a year and a half ago. Yeah I was unbalance with the first few days. But now I’m the same as the old me maybe even better. I comprehend things better now. Before my injury my mind would always be racing now it’s slow down a little more where I understand everything. I still act the same maybe more serious but I’m the same old me but smarter.

My God one of the best conversions I ever heard.

As a scientist myself that believes in pursuing the truth whilst remaining open to all possibilities, I loved this interview and see that this scientist understands the essence of science. When you see people online completely shutting down any spiritual or religious ideas and claiming that they 'believe in science'...that kind of mindset is completely unscientific. The entire purpose of science is to learn more, to replace and improve upon previous ideas, so it requires open mindedness. There should ideally be no opinions in science, so listening and learning is only natural. Science doesn't claim to have all the answers and only accepts something as the truth if it able to be proved beyond reasonable doubt. Until then, everything else is just a possibility. This is why I believe that science is actually quite compatible with spirituality and other such things, or at least, science is unable to completely deny or accept these concepts until it can be proven one way or the other.

I wish I once could have a discussion like this. This was a pleasure to watch and it feels that I learned something new every second. I did not disagree with either

this is how legend discuss :)

Beautiful conversation! This is exactly how it should be...not thrown emotional insecurities by each other.... perfect discussion... knowledge gaining and blissful convo!

Should have put the scientist name in the title. He deserves that respect for doing this and for holding his own.

It's like watching one of The Midnight Gospel series.

David Eagleman is such a cool gentleman.... an intelligent questioner & most importantly a great listener. 🙏 Unlike z idiotic Javed Aktar who was hyper & imposing.

As an introvert, these are the conversations in mind.

"everyone is a piece of life"

Where is the next part..... ( I love it science vs mystic )

Truth to be told I think Sadhguru kept deviating away from the narrative of "who am I". The fundamental disconnect between modern science and spirituality is that as per the prevailing modern scientific intuition the self is not seperate from the materialistic constitution. The "conscious being" is a by product of the arrangement of the matter. As the neuroscientist explained that Houston's identity comprises of the roads and bridges and the monuments.... On the other hand the spiritual notion is that consciousness is not a by product of the materialistic arrangement. Since we are aware of the body-mind, that itself indicates that the body-mind is the object of our experience and "we" are the subject... And the subject and object has to be separate. Hence even though there can be changes in the body and the mind, there always remains a witness.. The awareness is always there.... Even when we are in deep sleep or faint... The witness in us is aware of the blankness... I think Sadhguru could have explained that in a better way..

Two highly aware people talking. I like

No negativity guys. Sadhguru is incredible allBlessings be to him. hare krisna

Lots of Respect for Sadguruji

After watching this video i realised i don't understand anything

Unadulterated back and forth discussions on fascinating topics. This is what the world needs more of. 💯. Forget the Kardashians

Hats off to whoever transcribed this

Let alone the discussion just observe our culture and theirs the way the posture of persons are sitting opposite to each other.

For the First time I saw a true seeker with a true Guru !! So pleasant 🙌

A brilliant discussion between Enlightenment and Genius. We should have these interviews more often

The man who launched my spiritual journey, my guru❤

i feel like a lot of what makes a person a person is other peoples memories of their experiences with that person

The discussion is incredible

The interviewer should be like this, with an intention to explore the truth and knowledge... but just to degrade the other person or prove himself smarter. A worthwhile video to watch ❤

Finally someone truly intellectual and worthy has emerged. A win for both Sadhguru and the masses

Science : Questions can be answered with consistency everytime and proven thru experiments Psedo-Science : Questions with different answers everytime and proven to confuse if it cannot convince

Brother as u see that sadhguru has showed everyone his inner exploration path. How many are ready to sacrifice everything to experience it.

We need more discussions like this. Beautiful.

Very good Mr. Sadguru. I was a budding physicist at 23 years of age with a Bachelor of Arts degree. But since then . . . not so much. Thanks for your insights.

One Soul and that's all

everything sadguru derives incredible way, great personality 🙏🙏

This is how you grow.. by putting right questions at right time..

I had a traumatic brain injury during my time in the military and it really fucked me up mentally over the years. When the Veterans Affairs threw me under the bus for care and I was close to succumbing to the depression by taking my life, my awareness to my situation triggered a dilemma within between survival and my own inner turmoil about my identity. It may sound confusing as I can't put into the words the awakening I had within my conscience but I chose to live my way rather than be limited by the identity my situation constricted me to be. I genuinely appreciate RU-vid for a good recommendation for once and I think more people should watch this.

Gem of a discussion. I have always thought like sadguru is discussing. Unfortunately, many science students and teachers equally don't understand the essence of science.

Sad: You are not the body and mind Toothache: let me introduce myself

I love that they had a conversation and not a debate

I've just discovered sadhguru and his voice makes me happy

In most people's experience the mind has become like a computer that has evolved to a physical capability where it believes it is an entire existence on it's own - not realizing there exists a user. Sadhguru effortlessly guides a person toward seeking the "users" manual ;)

9:54 begins the heart of the matter.

I’m a 22 years old in Quebec and I find this very interesting.

We need more interviews like this

It seems the neuroscientist doesn't understand that we are not our body and mind but we are just a piece of life.

Who ever dislikes this video I'm sure that they didn't understand a word Sadhguru said...🤭😂

David eagleman is just *chefs kiss*

Socrates said. "All I know is that I lnow nothing". As a scientist and tech guy myself n student of mysticism, it is so true. Let's keep explor8ng, learning, growing ... how sad rhis world has really not wvovlved despite tremendous potwntial. But it is ok, we can always learn n make it better. Beautiful interview, thanks for posting

sadhguru you have peeled the fruit!

Consciousness is the Last level of human intelligence.... beyond that their is sole sitting at your forehead... This is you ..... your body and your mind is accumulation...

Discussion and conversation is what we need. Not a competitive violent debate thing. Persuading the other person shouldn't be the point, a flow of ideas should be. By far one of the best discussions I've come across.

This world need more Sadhguru!!!

The person next to sadhguru seems to have so much to say but end up listening to him for so long without a word.

Many people dont appreciate the word sadhguru often uses wich is "EMOTION". Now break down the work. E-Motion (Energy In Motion) when you feel any type of emotionm use this tought of "Energy In Motion" and make yourself a progresssive day.

The first time sadhguru is interviewed by level

Sadhguru is very intelligent. He knows life sciences so well enough that he is able to explain it in a most lucid manner to the ones completely oblivious of it. We are blessed to have such an insightful being in this day and age. Great interviewer & a greater interviewee with so much wisdom & knowledge 🙏

More than just a guru, he's a great philosopher and a man of incredible scientific knowledge 👏

I'm a christian and i love Sadhguru and his perception of everything

Just experienced the Sadhguru’s light year

Theseus has entered the chat. Personally, i think there may well be a soul, however, it has not been proven. Certainly not in this discussion. The title of this video favors sadhguru, when in actuality both sides a speculating. Intelligently speculating, but speculating nonetheless.

see the humbleness of both!

How hard could it be to get the fact that we are not either a pysical body or a mental tought, WE are something beyond that. Feelings, tought, body or whatever is not self but kind of ego, we are the product of physical AND mental, and it is actualy a miracle.

Sadhguru s concept of life stands simplistic in the whole complexities of life.

But nobody mentioned DMT not even once

scientist "you won't dress like someone whos Chinese or an Eskimo" Sadhguru "I think I will when I go to the north pole"

It is too much to say we are not the body or the mind. What can any one prove in themselves is that there is a state in which the body and the mind experience intense emotions of joy and clarity. This is true and any one who wants to put some effort can experience it. Once we die nobody can tell what happens, but is this truly important? What matters if we are not able to feel happy in the present

Sadhguru is the sweetest child of Matrix.

Real a discussion of intelligence

In the west we arrogantly manufactured many things such as children foods that now we just realised how dangerous they have been to health of the children. The western societies are in crisis and they should do something about it as soon as possible

This scientist is great..he went toe to toe with Sadhguru...

Finally some intelligent conversation.....many presenters I have seen don't get maximum out of sadhguru's wisdom

Mr David’s question is still unanswered.

Some people don't understand and don't want to understand how things work . For example Indian education system is laying emphasis on result . Humans learn from process not result i.e. it is similar to materialism .

If only political debates could be this well rounded and respectful...

seeing two, intelligent, intellectual folk discuss the how's and why's of humanity is a true pleasure

This is a very deep discussion and difficult to understand.
