Sadhguru

New, challenging situations are possibilities, not problems. A problem would be if nothing new happens to you.

The whole effort of yogic practices and meditation is to move to a higher level of vibrance and awareness. You can make yourself in such a way that in your presence, people become peaceful and joyful.

Whether you are a man or a woman, unless the feminine becomes alive in you, you will never experience the finer aspects of life.

Intention is one thing, execution is another. In your life, will you execute what you intend, or will you let things happen to you accidentally, is the big question.

The more you realize the smallness of your existence, the larger will become your presence.

Never before has Humanity been as empowered as we are today. We can make this the most wonderful and impactful time in the history of Humanity.

If you keep the past alive within you, you will become dead to the present.

Someone says something nasty to you because something nasty is happening within them. They need your love, compassion, or distance. Do not let the spiral of nastiness suck you in.

People resist change because they rather stick to the known devil than pursue the unknown angel. Familiarity breeds comfort and inertia.

Love is not something that you do – it is something that you can become.

We are eating, using up, and possessing more than we should. That is why a large portion of the human population is hungry.

Suspicion is not Intelligent. In fact, the lower the level of intelligence, the more suspicious people are.

If you were conscious that you are mortal, you would do nothing other than what is absolutely needed for You and Everyone around you.

The word yoga means union. That means you consciously obliterate the boundaries of individuality and reverberate with the rest of the cosmos.

Thoughts and emotions come from the same source. Thoughts are the dry expressions of the mind, emotions are juicy. The way you think is the way you feel.

Timely death is not a disaster. Too many births – that is the real disaster.

Do not go searching for a Guru. When the pain of ignorance within you becomes a scream, a Guru will come in search of you.

When the need to be special is gone, that is when you are unique. Significance of life is in its uniqueness.

Do not be excessively concerned about your health – that itself is sickness.

If you understand that desire is an endless process, it is a game you can play joyfully.

To create an outside situation, you need the cooperation of other people and forces. To create an inner situation, you only need yourself.

For wealth to translate into wellbeing, you need a spiritual element within you. Without that, your success could work against you.

Just sitting silently for a few minutes within the sphere of Dhyanalinga is enough to make even those unaware of meditation experience a state of deep meditativeness.

The masculine and the feminine are two aspects of who you are. If you are too identified with one part, you will be half a life.

The basic virtue for a human being is to be true to yourself – integrity of thought, emotion, and action.

Everything comes from the same source. You come to absolute ease only if you experience yourself as a part of existence, not as a separate individual.

If we want everyone to be well, we need to rethink everything we do and the way we are doing it in the world.

Do not aspire for enlightenment. The aspiration should be to grow beyond your present limitations quickly.

Empowered by life energy, imagination shall manifest as Reality.

You are life, and you are here to live, Experience and serve life. No one has any right to have a mission of their own.
