Sadhguru-If you're in ignorance you must suffer. break your karma

do we have maximum Karma with people that are close to us for example our parents our siblings our spouses and if yes uh how do we deal with them different than others please repeat that you didn't get the first part of the question do we have maximum Karma with people who are close to us people are you are you talking about your wife [Applause] we kept her away from you for 6 months so that your karma could be reduced you people who are close to you means not necessarily but generally you're always looking for somebody who thinks like you who feels like you who acts like you you're looking for a double these double thing is a big problem you know during World War II Adel fitler had many doubles people who just look just like him they were trying to speak like I mean they were trained to speak like him behave like him all mannerisms everything many tyrants across the world have always tried to have doubles for variety of reasons this is a basic trait a tyrant that you want to have a double and because a lot of marriages are tyrannical you're trying to have a double in 1944 when the World War II was beginning to turn against the Third reach on a certain day himla who was the right-and man of Adam fitler walked into your safe house where there were eight Hitler doubles all of them looked like hit Hitler they dress like Hitler behave like Hitler they have been trained for years and everybody else who deals with them also have to behave as if he they are hitless so Henrich himla walked in and said hail Hitlers and said I have good news and bad news they all said okay what's the good news the good news is avora is still alive the bad news is he lost his left eye and he pulled out a metal hook once you're a double this is a problem you know so whatever happens to the double has to happen to you if they become miserable you must become miserable if you show Joy on your face you're [Laughter] finished no yes if your double is being miserable you must also have measurable whether you are or not it doesn't matter if you show Joy then the double you're not doing the double act properly so I do not know what from what context from what understanding of karma you're asking this people whom you believe you love and people whom you believe you hate with both of them there is lot of Dharma you may never meet the person they're somewhere far away but you hate them you definitely have a lot more karma with Pakistan than Lan isn't it isn't it because it's going on so karma is not because of your engagement in life with something karma is because of the way you deal within yourself it is something that you're doing to yourself it is not something that life is doing to you it is something that you're doing to yourself so what kind of karma you do to yourself is your choice we were looking at this yesterday if you wish you can become joyful if you wish you can become miserable you can become blessful you can become ecstatic you can become utterly you know you can cause a gy to yourself without any reason it's just you so this must be understood K means action whose action my action or in other words this is a great insight into life that you understand your life is your making it is your doing it is not somebody else's doing only because it is your doing only and only because it's you're doing there is room for Liberation if it was God's doing how the hell are you going to break it if the Trap was God's trap Creator's trap there is no way you going to break it because it's your doing that is why it can be undone after all it's you're doing so you can use somebody people around you either to break your karma either to cause a Karma of Liberation or to cause a Karma of bondage anyway you're doing something always you can't help that isn't it physically mentally emotionally ener wise something is happening with you all the time awake or asleep you cannot Dodge that if you aware you will cause Karma of Liberation if you're unaware you will cause the karma of bondage you need not necessarily be married for that you can simply do it sitting alone in a room for the rest of your life you can create Karma with everybody in the world it doesn't take anything because it's something that you're doing within yourself it is not an interaction with somebody it is something that is happening within you you are like a silk worm silk is a beautiful fiber and a fabric but this is like a silk worm using his own marrow he's weaving a cocoon for himself this cocoon is very important is going to kill him if he doesn't break it someday if he breaks it he becomes a beautiful butterfly fly free to fly if he doesn't he will die within the Kum that's all karma is if you crack it it becomes a source of Liberation something very beautiful will happen no worm can ever imagine what it means to be a butterfly isn't it but but uh if you die in it then it becomes the greatest bondage because you died in your own Kon not somebody else's making your own making so karma is not about somebody whether close to you or far away from you it's not about somebody it is what you're doing within yourself the very fundamentals of karma means it's my doing everything that I am is my doing the moment you think I'm having Karma because of my wife you miss the whole point the karma is not because of her the karma is not because of somebody else the karma means my doing my action this is my Creation The Bondage is my creation so The Liberation also has to be my doing Sy can help you but this is an inside job because it's an inside job a little outside help is needed but it's an inside job you're not having Karma with anybody karma is about you it is your making it is your bondage two people may be living together doing many things together one may be becoming free another may be getting entangled isn't it so isn't it happening they are living together doing the same things one is using this to get entangled another is becoming liberated because you're doing if it was each other's doing then both would be entangled it is not so the very word Karma means it's my doing nobody else is involved in this business s Guru fear of failure of or fear of change gets me immobilized how can I change it fear of change does what or fear of failure it makes me immobilized how do I change it immobilized for one who is you who is seeing this life as a stepping stone for a larger possibility for him there is no failure for one who is looking at the simple events of this life itself as the goal of life for him there is failure and success if you're just seeing this life is a stepping stone for a larger possibility if you have a good deal you use that for your well-being if you have a bad deal you use that for your wellbeing the economy was on the boom when every fool could be successful it didn't take much when the economy is on the Boom everybody gets carried isn't it now there has been a meltdown now we take something else to be successful so when the economy was on the boom you could have brought a certain dispassion towards the money that's flowing in now the economy is down the Taps are all closed up it's time to come meditate walk in the mountains there's a lot of time there's a lot of time on your hands isn't it when there was money it took away your time and life now the Taps are closed lots of time this the time so it doesn't matter what the hell happens it doesn't matter what the hell happens with your life if you are seeing this life only as a stepping stone for a larger possibility then whatever the situation it is beautiful and very useful very very useful once there was a farmer like you who was tired of various Natural Factors ruling his the quality of his uh crop so one day he called Shiva it was a wild card entry so he found excess and sha said what he said I'm tired of all the natural nonsense happening obviously you're not a farmer I know from history that you were a hunter you were not a farmer you don't know what what it means to farm why don't you leave the nature in my hands I'm a farmer I know when it should rain I know when there should be sunlight I know when there should be wind I know what everything you don't know because you're just a hunter and you're a crazy athetic you definitely not a good farmer the wrong times it's raining at wrong times things are happening you leave it to me S was one of those moods he said okay nature is in your hands then the farm of land is crop planted a maze crop ring poke the L and see okay it's soaked up to 6 in stop then PL it plant it wait for 2 days rain sunlight today I'm working in the field cloud so everything just happened the way he wanted a beautiful maze crop came he was overjoyed see it's good nature should be in Farmer's hands and then when the time to harvest came he wanted to see because none of the birds were coming he was surprised because that also he said no birds no birds then he went in open and saw nice big everything but you open and saw no grain inside then he thought what the hell is this why did I do wrong then he couldn't figure out because rain water Sunshine everything he managed properly then again he went back to but he was in this condition he waited for many years for him to open his eyes by the time his you know these many years the fields and the family everything went to but he wanted to know the answer what went wrong he's farmer first then when sha opened his eyes he asked I did everything right but there is no grain did you sabotage my CR sha said I've been watching you were doing you were in charge so I didn't want to interfere the rain was great the sunshine was great everything was fine but you stopped all the winds I used to always send Fierce winds which would threaten your crop but because the plants felt pushed and threatened they put their Roots deeper into the Earth so grain happened now you have great maze crop no maze so various situations in your life either you can use it to make yourself stronger and better or you can sit and cry this is the choice you have everything it doesn't matter what happens the most horrific event happened in your life that also can be used for your growth and your well-being if only if you have clearly seen the small events of your life when I say small events I mean your business your marriage your children all those big things all these things are just a stepping stone this is not new to you because in this culture they put this into you for centuries for millenniums they told you your life is about MTI your marriage your business your social life these are all just means to get there either you go with it or you go without it but whether you are a sasi or you're in the samsara your only goal is MTI yes the goal was not just for the syasi for everybody it is MTI if you can walk alone you walk alone you want party going with you you walk with the party that's your choice you want to get there quick you walk alone you want to go there having picnic on the way slowly you go with people choice is yours but the important thing is whatever the hell you're doing there's only one go so if you have set this up then all the events of life everything is beneficial the Boom is beneficial the Meltdown is even more beneficial actually it is also ecologically very good you know the Meltdown so the fear of failure failure is bad enough fear is adding spice to it isn't it success happens to you not because you desire it it because you earn it everybody desires it it comes only if you're capable of it no no I'm very capable but that's the but I'm very capable I was doing very well 5 years ago but now yes but now situations have changed and you don't know how to deal with it that's all it means if you have set a larger goal for yourself than just eating breeding earning a living if You' have set a larger goal for yourself all these things are fine today you have a what uh I'm I'm sorry to torture you with reminder uh 12 course meal tomorrow you have just dry bread both can be enjoyed isn't it both can be just fine actually it's good for health not to have a 12 course meal it's good for the tongue it's good for the society to have a 12 course meal not good for your body lot of people by choice they're having a simple meal by choice they're having a simple meal if nature assists you what is the problem suppose you can't afford anything else you can always buy our sanj gji you know what are you laughing it's very nutritious and you can also buy a bottle of pickle you can live on it for the rest of your life very nutritious is very good for your health you live longer you can even throw a sjin party why not I'm sure you can make that much money isn't it no but I can't pay my rent I can't pay my electricity bill you can come and work you we if you don't have a building we'll put you in the touch roof at least the cowed is there you know we all slept in the cowed to start with today things are gotten a little better you don't know how it'll be tomorrow who the hell cares when we slept in the CED we were like this only today also we like this only when we were in the cowed we were not like this we were like this only now also we like this only wherever the hell we go whatever the hell happens this is how it will be because success and failure is not in the volumes of money flowing into your life success and failure is not dependent upon the recognition that you're finding in the world you're successful with life if you know how to walk with joy through hell meltdown is not hell don't I know there is a a certain amount of global warming involved but it's not as hot as hell not yet it's not bad at all it's very good I'm sure you can do with less food smaller house smaller car or walking is great you know walking is very good for health do you know some men who just uh became 100 years old in kambo city I not met the man I read in the newspaper just a month ago he became he his 100 100th birthday they asked him what is the source of your health and well-being because he's still strong and good he said uh I a walk King you know he put a hyphen in walking and said I'm a walk King every day I walk 100 I'm still walking so your failure could be extremely good for your wellbe don't be against your own wellbeing you know and walking it's your recipe for [Applause] health there is no such thing as failure failure is an idea because success is also a stupid idea your idea what is success and what is failure isn't it instead of trying to change the world change your idea isn't it easier if you just change your idea of success and failure everything is great isn't it if you were a beggar on the street today if you could walk into the restaurant eat a masal DOA and pay 10 rupes bill this would be the height the peak of your success isn't it so so you've gotten trapped in social situations and it is not even your idea why am I crediting you with this it is somebody's idea of what is success isn't it don't become a slave to somebody's idea at least have your own idea you have no idea of your own don't deceive yourself every idea every thought every emotion every value that you have is picked up from somewhere and it rules you from within it rules you from within your religion your Society your culture has trained you to believe that this is it so first the first and foremost success is that you are not a slave to anybody's idea this is Success whatever the situation of life you're alive means you're successful isn't it no let me see it if you're successful this is Success you're alive you do know the value of life you're crying about the share market you do not know the value of life because the damn graph is going up and down you want to die no no but I lost so much money that is no such thing these are all social things these are not existential things we created the society for our well-being not to take our lives yes [Applause] you created your family your social structure and every other damn thing for your well-being not to take your life isn't it now every damn thing can take your life don't make things that you create things that human beings create larger than your life that is the basis of your suffering you are not interested in the Creator's creation so magnificent you are enamored by Petty things so you have to suffer if you don't suffer how what is the value of Enlightenment you have to suffer if ignorance doesn't bring suffering to you why do you seek Enlightenment what what would be the value somebody said ignorance is bliss they've always been selling ignorance of course see I told you the power of marketing in the morning people have been telling you ignorance is bliss ignorance is bliss you know during the 60s people popped LSD LSD love sex and drugs they popped LSD and they began to think they super human and they jumped off tall buildings because they believed they're going to fly and they did fly for some time you know when the right Brothers flew they were Airborne only for 24 seconds and that was a great feat when I you know when I was 17 years of age I Built My Own hang lighter and I tried to fly down the hill because it was downhill I flew I believe it looked like a long time but I believe I could have also done something 20 seconds but then when you realize it is not built to fly then the Bliss is over I came down with two cracked ankles but these people people who jumped off buildings they were Blissful in their ignorance till you hit the ground of course so if ignorance does not bring suffering to you I would be disappointed with life I would be very disappointed then all my striving and who I am doesn't mean anything it's of no significance it's of no cons quence no if you're in ignorance you must suffer this is not my wish this is the way of life whether you like it or you don't like it that's the way it happens sguru all the cultures in the world they have a common thing that they rever human life taking away your own life or somebody else's life is is not considered proper but if if one is really suffering one has got a bad deal in this life then why can't just one you know start a new game end this one and restart the game is there anything wrong with that so if I have a bad deal don't have the right to shut it up and come back again if you have a bad deal with your job you could just quit if you have a bad deal with your marriage you could just divorce if you have a bad deal with the society in which you live you can come to ISA yoga sent if you have a bad deal in Isa Yoga Center you can go up the mountain so these are not good enough reasons for you to end the process of Life first of all you didn't create it so you don't talk about ending it unless your identity as a separate being or a separate person has has disappeared and you and the source of creation are just the same if you come to that point then you can just throw away your body consciously then you're allowed to do it not by damaging the body not by hanging from a tree we don't mind burying you under the tree but hanging from a tree is neither good for you nor for the tree we already looked at this whether it's a good deal or a bad deal if you have a larger purpose everything is a stepping stone everything is a stepping stone for your ultimate well-being if you have set the larger goal every situation that you get into you are getting so identified and caught up with it now it feels like it's better to end your life anyway this is lot of bull cuz today something is going wrong you want to end your life tomorrow morning something is going right you want to live you want to have your third baby you want to get married once again if things are going little better tomorrow morning you'll have plans everything looks bleak you think of suicide isn't it so this is just a game that you're playing in your mind it once happened a Salesman decided to go into a new development Housing Development he thought no other salesman would have still ventured yet because it's a new development so he wanted to be the first one be the early bird so he went and knocked on the very first house that he saw there a lady came and opened the door without giving her a chance he just slipped into her house took a lot of cow down fresh cow down from his bag and threw it all over the new carpet and he said see I have a Wonder vacuum cleaner you watch it I'll clean this carpet without even leaving the slightest of odor if I don't do it I will eat every piece of this cow dong myself I will eat it so the lady asked would you like some tomato sauce because we still do not have electricity in the house what you need is a little bit of tomato sauce tastes a little good then you suddenly want to live just eating cow dong you feel like dying stood up and said Guru if you know what youing such nonsense should not come out of your mouth there is no meaning to S Guru when you are wanting to end your life because it's not worthwhile sitting here that's what you're telling me it it's not worthwhile sitting here you are not in Grace you are somewhere about how your job is not working how your family is freaking you how something else is happening that's all you're thinking about just be here suddenly it'll be worthwhile I'll make it worthwhile the quality of your relationship largely decides the quality of your life is it so the quality of relationships that you hold in your life largely decides the very quality of life that you live good deal or bad deal is not the point the point is is this life serving the purpose it's human memory which is a source of all bondage what you call as karma is just memory and different levels of life don't believe anything that is not yet your experience it doesn't matter who says it this does not mean disbelief no you don't know that's all somebody tells you story
