"Is there anything called Destiny?" - Sadhguru

a lot of people talk about destiny is there anything called destiny at all this has always been the fad in the world that is whenever you succeed is you whenever you fail it's destiny yes whenever you're successful with something you're proud of your success that means in some way you're taking the credit for your success isn't it whenever you fail it must be God's will it has to be or anything that you cannot understand has to be God's will so many things which were destiny a few years ago is no more destiny isn't it so yes suppose you had four children and you lost two children 100 years ago it was destiny not anymore isn't it so yes or no not anymore is it it so now you know why 100 years ago you were young and fine and well at least you were young and you suddenly died at 30 it was destiny if you die today at 30 we know why you're drinking too much you're eating or not eating properly you are smoking you're doing something we know you're killing yourself even when you started we know you're killing yourself isn't it it's no more destiny 100 years ago if half the chennai population did not have water to drink it was destiny now we know hope isn't its own so a lot of things which were destiny are no more destiny why because your understanding the scope of your understanding is increasing as the scope of your understanding m is enhanced more and more things are falling out of the list of destiny and becoming your responsibility isn't it so so when I say yoga when we utter the word yoga what we are talking about is it is about becoming a master of your own destiny to a point where the very process of life and death in your hands the very process of life death and but also is in your hands the very womb that you choose to be born in is by choice to that extent you can take your life into your hands as your understanding and perception of life difference you will see everything is in your hands if your understanding and perception of life is very superficial everything looks like it's happening from somewhere let's go off right now I was shiva hasn't been the way hasn't that been the way for a long time yes or no even now in the religions like that let's go off it's God's doing now we know isn't it if you are running a power company nerve annoys you so because our understanding and perception of life has been so limited we have made everything into destiny what you call as destiny are those dimensions of life which you created unconsciously whatever you can create unconsciously you can also create consciously if you create consciously it will not be destiny if you create it unconsciously it all seems to be destiny but it's still your doing in this country there has never been any destiny destiny business came from elsewhere in this country they always told you no matter what happens to your life it is your karma know what karma means action this thing it doesn't matter what's happening to you you live or you die it's your karma you live well or you live badly that's your Karma that means what it's your actions which is creating this may be a large part of your actions are unconscious that doesn't matter but it still your actions so when we say karma that means not destiny everything is yours with too much looking at the Stars we do much interested in various other planets except this planet I hope people play paid the same attention to this planet as they're planing you know paying to the other planets it's time we pay some attention to this planet because how this planet is will decide the quality of your life how the other planets are will not decide the quality of your life right now too much attention is being played to pay to other planets you
