Does The Mind Have The Power To Cure? - Sadhguru

[Music] your mind is your employee why have you made him your enemy resentment anger hatred these are all poisons you drink and you expect someone else to die life doesn't work like that do something about this one fix this one before you enter the world once song Shankaran Pillai ahead well you're laughing at somebody's ailment it's not good Shankaran Pillai had chronic tuberculosis tuberculosis they rendered the doctor been festering for a long time but it became too much of a problem so he went the doctor took an x-ray and looked big alt in the lungs he said you need to get admitted into the hospital right away and it takes a minor surgery and you have to stay in the hospital minimum six months and it'll cost you fifty thousand dollars Shankaran Pillai said no no way [Music] 50,000 for sure I don't have six months knowing I can give you $100 what can you do now the doctor looked at him looked at the x-ray looked at him look at this and he said well what hundred dollars I could touch up the x-ray for you it is possible that you could have caused physical damage to your system an ailment because of your patterns of thinking very much possible because you're a psycho soma whatever happens in the mind invariably happens in the body but once the damage is manifested in the body physically trying to think it away could be just wishful thinking I'm not saying it's not at all possible but after all you have only one life you don't take such a risk yes you would like to assist it with your thought process also but no I will just sit down and think it away you may think yourself away so don't try such things disease or no disease ailment or no ailment you have no business to make a mess out of your mind you have no business to torture this being whether you get ailment or you don't get an ailment is the next thing but you have simply no business to torture this being because this is in a way it's a helpless being see if I run after you with the hot iron right now you will try to escape you'll call for help you can do all those things but suppose you take a hot iron and start putting it at this one where will this one run even if you're a child you can still have some defense yes even as if five six year old kid has some difference isn't it but this one no difference whatever nonsense you do to this one it has to just go through it no escape so this is like torturing a fetus trapped inside now you start poking it this is just like that yes the cruelest form of torture the cruelest thing that you can do is self torture because a totally helpless being everybody else however helpless they are they have some defense isn't it yes the weakest person can stab you winners when you're fast asleep it's happened isn't it somebody is weak you went on poking them one day when you're sleeping they came and poked you they can do something even the very weak person even a child can do something to you but this one totally helpless so you have no business to torture this one whether you have got an ailment or you haven't gotten ailment if you have gotten an ailment already you have already taken it that far that will cause damage to the system it is better that it is assisted in always possible yes definitely you must stop your nonsense but if the system needs medicine surgery this one that one whatever is needed it has to be done trying to just think it away because you brought it through your mind do not think that you can take it away through your mind possible I'm not saying no at all I cannot say it's a hundred percent no it is possible but you don't try such things because you may think yourself away once it crosses a certain point then nobody can help you isn't it yes doctors give up at some point or no harvick the only people who don't give up on us insurance everybody else gives up on you at some point the only people who don't want to give up on you is insurance because you know so keeping your mind life friendly is definitely your business your mind should be friendly to this life isn't it so should work for this life after all your mind is your employee yes sure why have you made him your enemy if you do not know how to handle the people who work for you they will turn into your enemies don't have any misunderstanding about this don't have any doubt about this it happens isn't it so if you don't handle your own children properly they will turn into your enemies no you have any doubt no not my son you won't do that don't have any doubt he'll do that if you don't hand him right he will turn into your enemy yes or no yes or no that's a real life is now why is it your mind such a powerful beautiful miraculous thing has turned into your enemy this is something we have to look at whether you have an ailment or you're on the way whichever way it's time you look at it isn't it so you shouldn't let any time pass because thinking diseases in and thinking diseases out is not fun it'll cost life once you have an ailment it becomes a full-time engagement you won't have any other luxury of sitting and listening to spiritual discourse like this it will take away everything we'll be sitting in a hospital queue yes or no it's not fun yes it's not fun till you get there you don't realize how bad it is I want you everybody however healthy you are once a month take a tour of a major hospital in your town you must really you must go and see not for some perverse pleasure but you must see what can happen to human beings just small things wrong that's all they didn't commit any great crime they were just everyday creating little acid in their stomach see where its govern them you handle everything right still you know the damn tick may get into you and cause problems who knows yes you handled everything right does it matter you got into an airplane you're thinking they're all people but the swine-flu got into you somebody's a swine there you don't know if you do everything right still there are million problems isn't it so yes the nature of life is such even if you drink milk you could get poisoned but if you are talking about drinking poison and living well all the best that's all I can say isn't it so if you eat good food it can turn into poison in your stomach it's possible you eat the best things it can turn into poison you want to eat poison and live well I can only wish you luck because there's no other way for such a person isn't it you're churning up poison and hoping to live well you need a lot of luck we have to arrange the whole tapestry of stars into a line straight line for you all the stars in line for you otherwise not life will not work for you it will get you so please keep your mind in line it should work for you see do beautiful things for you not ugly things why is your mind doing ugly things so now I can't stand how a constant if I develop resentment resentment anger hatred these are all poisons you drink and you expect someone else to die life doesn't work like that if you drink the poison only you die not somebody else I hate I hate her I want her dead I want her dead only you die not her isn't it you drink poison and you expect somebody else to die it doesn't work like that so you need to get this straightened out if your mind is working against you first and foremost thing that you do is take a break from every damn thing that you're doing it doesn't matter what you're doing understand your work your family your nonsense take a break from everything go to an appropriate place if you want you can come here or go to India go somewhere else wherever it works for you do something about this one fix this one before you enter the world isn't it so sit down in one place see what you can do about this one because once you live in this world either you must do something good to yourself or you must do something good to ten people around you hey there you must be keeping yourself truly joyful and living you don't care about anybody it doesn't matter at least you're happy they're okay or you're doing something nice for somebody around you you're okay anybody who is not doing any good to himself or to anybody around him has really no right to call himself human isn't it that much intelligence and awareness nature has put into you isn't it so yes maybe you can't do some great act in the world it doesn't matter at least walk gently upon this planet that much you can do right yes maybe you can't go out and serve the whole world it doesn't matter at least walk joyfully if you walk joyfully on this planet suddenly you see the whole world looks beautiful once the whole world looks beautiful naturally you will shed a glance a loving glance upon everything this is natural process is it so if you walk through this very joyfully whatever you look at looks beautiful once everything looks beautiful to you you naturally share a very loving glance upon everything that you see you are a blessed being that's all it takes and if you are not so isn't it time that you take some time off and work upon yourself no no I am doing something important you're not doing anything important because in everything that you do who you are will find expression isn't it not you stupid good intentions which will find expression who you are will find expression in everything that you do if you are poison in your head with good intentions you will inject poison into the world that's what is happening in the world more damage is happening to this world with good intentions than with bad intentions isn't it so in 1934 Hitler adult Hitler gave a speech in Hamburg and he said I'm doing the duty of my forefathers when people asked him why he is rounding up people and sending them to the guests and I want you to understand I believe that he was not lying he believes that's the most dangerous thing he's not a liar he believes what he's doing that's what empowers the man's within a short span of time the way he organized the whole nation and made everybody believe whatever he believes in he's not simple organization phenomenal organization isn't it because the man believes hundred-percent and he believes that he's the best thing he's doing the best thing that can be done to the world so your good intentions are not going to save the world have you are and how you are will change only if you can breathe walk lie down sit down joyfully if you cannot do this one thing everything else will be just poisoned whatever you do only when you're pleasant within yourself you feel pleasant about everything around you only when you feel pleasant about everything around you you move around with a certain sense and value to life around you otherwise it doesn't matter how much morality you carry in you how many scriptures you remember you will find ways to do the cruelest possible things so the first and foremost business the first and basic responsibility for a human being is how he sits yeah are you sitting here joyfully are you sitting here with some misery being manufactured in your head this is the foremost thing that you have to attend to only after that everything else because otherwise nothing else really works please see whenever you feel very miserable always the thought comes you want to end your life you don't take action on that but thought comes Linda yes or no you try this 24 hours you remain in misery you always entertain yourself with the television or a book or a friend or something don't do that 24 hours just remain in misery within 24 hours you will get serious thoughts that you want to end your life show because nobody can bear misery more than for a few minutes more than a few minutes you need a diversion otherwise you'll go crazy isn't it to understand misery does not work that's not the way to conduct life whatever maybe your life situation whatever I'm saying whatever may be happening with your life maybe when you came to the satsang you packed everything in your car and come and you have no house to go back to maybe if you come from Michigan not your okay maybe something else there may be many things in life whatever it may be you are better off than when you were born isn't it you came with nothing at least you got something now you're in the profit side look at the beauty of life you came with utterly nothing whatever may be happening you are still in profit not in loss so you cannot complain isn't it so don't try to think your this is a way think your misery away hmm if you think your misery away ailment or no ailment we'll see [Music] you
