Who Is Sadhguru? | PBD Podcast #778

Key Takeaways

  • Accepting mortality is essential for growth

    The most obvious thing in our lives is we are mortal. We will die one day. But most people believe that other people die. They never think they will die.

  • Big goals require more time than available

    It depends on what you want to do with your life. If you want to do little things, there's lots of time. If you wanna do something big, there's not enough time.

    Sadhguru
  • Prioritize personal experience over external beliefs

    You are trying to drop like, 10 commandments from whatever I'm speaking. Don't do that. What is true is only what you have experienced. Rest is all imagination and belief.

  • True ecstasy is an internal chemical state

    If I remove my hands off my psychological process, every cell in my body bursts out with ecstasy. Today, we have proven this in the laboratories, that the bliss factor is up in a huge way. The endocannabinoids in the brain are up by 70% in a matter of six weeks of practice.

    Sadhguru
  • Strive to die as a blissful failure

    I know I will die a failure in my life no matter what I do, but I will die a blissful failure. Human imagination, human capacity to think and project is such that if you really apply yourself, what you want to do cannot be done in one life.
