“You are sitting alone and suffering: this means you are in bad company.” Oof, that hit me... we all have to be kinder to ourselves. We are our own best friend!
One of the most important lessons I ever learned: YOU are responsible for how YOU feel. You can choose to have a bad time, or a good time. It's up to ourselves
I didn’t know this until I was about 33 years-old; until then, I believed everything that passed through my head. You can imagine how troubling this was, and also how LIBERATING it was - so late in life - when I finally learned my thoughts aren’t all factually true and shouldn’t be trusted! Freedom from suffering!
if you chose to experience it in a skillful way, most people will pity you. like theres something wrong with being curious about the other side of the coin you see so rarely. so there must be something wrong with you. and so it begins...
The day I started listening to Sadhguru, my life changed for the better. I am now understanding the state of BEING and living Consciously. Thank you and lots of love from Kenya 🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪
8:17 This reminds me of a time I was on a long drive to Los Angeles. I was alone on the open road in my '79 El Camino, & feeling miserable. I decided it was up to me if I was going to have a good drive or a bad drive, so I threw in a Bob Marley CD and started singing and dancing with the windows down, wind blowing my hair. Soon enough a car came up and we were roaddogz all the way to L.A., letting each other pass and waving at each other, smiling. That never would have happened if I hadn't decided to let my hair down and be joyful for what I had
it also happened with me with how much i hated going to school and i was miserable everyday but once i decided to say its a good day and express gratitude of just small things around me and suddenly i felt happy walking home from school and liking the weather and little stuff like that... it can really change you it depends on your perspective
Never allow external forces to diminish your level of happiness. It’s not real, what is real is how you respond emotionally. It’s a choice. Happiness is a choice, always has been. No one can make you feel anything.
Lexie, are you real, and how do you know that your choices are real? Do you ever get sad, and if so why, and if not I can assure that you are delusional.
An adult can understand that. But children can't. He's not talking to us as adults. He's talking to us as children who have been abused. Why else speak of monsters? That's the realm of childhood.
@@arjungautam478 If you remember absolutely all of them, then sure. Finite body and brain is not meant to hold infinite lifetimes inherent to all living people. But, however, if you remember just a few of them, then you might be able to glean some insight to help you enrich your Current life, and maybe even enrich the life of someone else. Does this make sense?
@@edits9287 here's an analogy that may help. When you throw a plastic bottle in the river, it flows all the way to the ocean hitting multiple boulders, multiple fish creatures nibbling on it and then as it reaches the ocean a shark eats it, chokes on it and dies, the plastic bottle does not break or change much in form, its properties remain as it is. You sir/madam are the bottle, be the bottle, dance with the universe, adapt to survival on earth. Everything else is just messing with you. All you got to do in meditation state... or as the "brain manual" says, is to be the Observer.
"Don't blame anyone and yourself". Just live your life for humanity. This should be the most important thing. And try to get yourself and also others to get rid of all kinds of sorrow... because this is the way of liberation ..according to me.
@@pooja9321 hey, these things are a little bit deep. I am talking about the mental well being here. No one can stop u from being happy other than u. I m not talking about physical or bodily well being. Anyone can hurt u physically.
@@AbhishekThakur-vr5if no he us not confused. What he is saying is that it is not s universal truth and that the statement needs to be qualified. For example an abused child is not responsible for what happened to them, etc
Very relatable for me right now. I am already retaking my inner engineering course (after the video) because WOW I realized that I have the ability (self sabotage) to completely suffer my intelligence and thoughts/emotions. But I'm over iiiiit! Back to reality for me! I hope everyone who watched this gets to be a full fledged life! 🤸🏿♂️✌🏿❤🙏🏿
So do I 💖 You are not alone. I’ve been suffering with depression. He gives me a different perspective from my dark thoughts. I can sleep after seeing his videos
Pity that you take lessons from conmen who went from rags to riches with funding from people like you.. for a true Yogi or guru it should be the other way around like Gauthama Buddha etc who went from riches to rags sacrificed comforts to gain enlightenment and guide the world.... All Babas Swamy's Sadhgurus Ammas Maathas Maas Gurujis etc are living their lives full of premium comforts and sins from foreign funding.. 🙄
i think what he is really saying is that there's one voice you should listen to which is the voice of your intuition and your true self by honoring it exactly you will no longer have the need to satisfy or listen to anything else, you will be centered, self care! peace to every living soul❤️
What is "enlightened" how do you define it? He is casting light on things that most do not see. So I would say in that sense, yes. But he is only showing us the simple and obvious, so perhaps its other people who have chose to call normal, enlightened.
DaBunny...in the beginning of the video "Sadhguru - there is no such thing as your soul. the process of reincarnation", there is a quote - "If you dismantle the karmic structure 100%, now you merge with the existence. This is what is referred to as mukti, or liberation." I'm convinced that when this happens you leave the universe behind and go to what the Christians call heaven and what the Buddhists call nirvana...this is being enlightened
You are the nature Sadhguru ! When you speak, the nature speaks through you . You are not a vyakthi but you are a Shakthi and you are the very reason I am taking charge of my life. Oh Sadhguru , I bow down to you with every second of my life. I dedicated my life to follow your teachings and do the Kriyas you thought me 🙇🙇♀️🙏🕉💐🙌👏💪🤝
The simplicity of what He says so logical so deep and so difficult to train our minds to make it this simple. Thank you Sadghuru for sharing your wisdom. I wish everyone focused on improving themselves instead of trying to change people and things around them.
Please kindly explain what he has taught about how not to sabotage yourself BC it is not clear what he is saying apart from you are pretty much responsible for all that happens in your life?
@@mimiya1814 It sounds simple when he speaks it and common sense right but its not that simple when you’re in your own mind. Right now my anxiety is crazy over some medical tests I need to have done. I am obsessing over all the bad outcomes and “sabotaging myself”. We all have the power to control our minds thoughts perceptions when we are mindful of the type of thinking that creates the stresses in our lives. It’s a practice called mindfulness, which again sounds simple, but it is not as simple as it seems.
@@pramodk4014 Not sure what you mean. Are you saying that this video appeared through his grace? Sadhguru is wise, but not a god. His grace is your grace, but ultimately separate.
@@pramodk4014 Forget the word God. I feel we have different interpretations, so it does not make sense to compare meanings. I just wonder why you think "he knows".
The matureness in the words complete a moment of laughter and a sense of knowledge we are always aware of just don't have idea of completing it right. Sometimes too much noise outside is hard to listen to our inner being. Sadghuru you are incredible beyond. I am grateful that in this generation you are so amazing in your own way to touch the lives that really need this. You are amazing really. God highly bless you with everything you lack from life and in spirit may God continue to fill you in order we may find also for ourselves. Much respect for you.
I like the simplicity of your explanations, very understanding of the meaning of life. Everyone always has questions about themselves. My question to you is; when did you know you could help human society with your knowledge. How was your set of mind from a childhood, to attract the life you have now...Many thanks and a great respect to you🙏
He told in a video that he got the intellect in a forest. After which he cried for 14 days without food. Then he started helping people with issues. Psychology is his power.
Because one believes in oneself, one doesn't try to convince others. Because one is content with oneself, one doesn't need others' approval. Because one accepts oneself, the whole world accepts him or her. Friendship with oneself is all important, because without it one cannot be friends with anyone else in the world.
Thanks for uploading! What a profound tool given in such a subtle way!! Effectively telling, how to light torch within yourself (whenever internal response starts to give depressing feelings against an external stimuli or when mind starts creating its own tantrum within, out of the enormous Karma /memory bag rudely unfolding within)!! DIRECTION GIVEN WITH SUCH A COMPASSION!!! SADGHURU - RESPECTS!!
Yes. All of the others beings’ drive me crazy! And what fabulous fun we had feeling many feelings! :D Now they have gone quiet, and I feel able to look at my Life story, to learn to accept it all as my responsibility for its making and transforming. Thanks again for being the healthy picture of a father for me Sadhguru. x
Sadghuru taught me years ago to take 100% responsibility for every single thing, and once i assumed that position my life changed, Today I blame nothing, its not God, its not ego or voices, its 100% me.
Please can you give a practical example of how you began to put taking 100% responsibility into practice that changed something in your life, thank you
@@mimiya1814 taking 100% responsibility for everything means that I no longer blame, control, resist, punish myself or others, hold resentments or drag yesterdays issues into the next day, i asume 100% responsibility and take direct action into the matter, therefore I’m not fussing about. I take life in full swing. If I get sick I take full responsibility, I don’t blame God or the universe. I don’t wait for others to fix things nor engage in wishful thinking about how things should be. So when I take responsibility for everything even if I’m not to blame, I am in the drivers seat with better options than fussing.
@@offthechainfitness your explanation is very enlightening and life changing. Thank you so much for taking the time to reply to my question esp considering your post was some two years ago. 👍🙏
I do love the way sadhguru is able to walk me through his train of thought and brings me to the destination with perfect clarity. His description of "the ultimate" choked me up a little bit. Thank you for sharing this conversation!
Girls question is so valid... I have this dillema all the time. Even while sharing my problems, having opinions,firm believes II feel the other person doesn't care n is really happy that I have issues,troubles in life .. That has made me so secretive n not trust everyone. I only share my thoughts with my parents n very close friends...
I'm so glad people like Sadhguru are keeping it real in these developing countries. It's vital for the future of our planet that these emerging countries don't develop a culture of narcissism like my country America has.
the treatment? I did try to see myself responsible for everything but that is also taking your energy and thats criticizing urself .I got panicked after practicing for 8 years!
SO strong a lesson throughout! It makes a real impact on me. I need to watch this often! And there is made a tiny mentioning of people in real suffering (6:55), which was very touching to me.
I recently sabotaged a friendship group, my trigger from the past took over and I impulsively left the chat (this wasn't the first time), and this time round no one really wanted me back, i guess because they are tired of me. I don't know why I be so impulsive, especially when leaving relationships. It's like I don't trust, I want to be valued but at the same time when I am alone, I feel regrets, I blame myself from everything.
It will get better no need to isolate yourself reach out and explain do not fear reprisal because acknowledging this is you on your journey to healing not being secretive about it anymore. You're not alone but being transparent may be the way forward and surround yourself with positive messages. I hope things are better now
