Have you listened to the FULL EPISODE yet?

"Let us not think anger happens to us, resentment happens to us. No, these things we are creating, we have the power to emote. We can make it love, we can make it joy, we can make it ecstasy, but people have chosen to make it tension, anger, resentment, hatred, they've turned it that way." - Sadhguru

In this profound episode, spiritual leader and visionary Sadhguru challenges our fundamental understanding of emotions and suffering. With his characteristic blend of wisdom and pragmatism, Sadhguru argues that our emotional states are not merely reactions to external circumstances, but creations of our own making. He emphasizes the power we hold to shape our internal experiences, urging listeners to recognize their ability to choose joy and love over anger and resentment.

Sadhguru delves deeper into the nature of human intellect and its limitations, using vivid metaphors to illustrate how overreliance on intellectual processes can lead to a fragmented and unsatisfying life. He introduces the yogic concept of the mind having 16 parts, highlighting how modern education systems often neglect all but the intellect. Through this lens, Sadhguru offers a new perspective on personal growth, suggesting that true freedom and fulfillment come not from avoiding discomfort, but from transcending the fear of suffering itself. His teachings provide a roadmap for listeners seeking to expand their consciousness and live life more fully, unbounded by the constraints of comfort-seeking behavior.
