Sadhguru: You are not going
to witness the consecration, you are going to participate in
the consecration process. Sounds of Isha Music – Sanskrit chant -
Shiva Shadakshara Stotram… (Background music) Participant 1: It feels so wonderful to be here, so many people, the forest,
really wonderful process. Participant 2: This is the first time I’m coming here and, needless to say, it’s a mind-blowing experience. Participant 1: I just feel so blessed to be here. Participant 3: I’m looking forward
to the experience. Participant 4: This is a once in a lifetime
opportunity for me. I have been dreaming of coming here, and
participating in some process of this kind. Sounds of Isha Music – Sanskrit chant -
Chidambareshvara Stotram… (Background music) Sadhguru: The coming two days, one thing I want all of you to understand is, in many ways, this situation is not like any of the situations that
you might have been in. In the sense, you are not going to witness the consecration, you are going to participate in the consecration process. So it’s a different level of responsibility. It’s a different level of focus. It’s a different level of existence, altogether. It would be so much simpler and easier to consecrate it, and then invite you for celebration. The nature of the consecration is such, that
there is room for participation. So I thought, nobody should, all those who are willing, they should not miss this possibility, and this privilege of being able to manifest the divine. Rather than always looking up to it, being
able to manifest this in some way. All privileges always come with responsibilities. All privileges which allow you a certain perch, also means, that if you do not conduct yourself properly, you could fall off. So, the higher the privilege, the more responsibility and involvement it demands. So now, you’re in a consecration process,
not as a witness, but as a participant. You need to understand. In any of these process, whether Inner Engineering, Isha Yoga programs, Bhava Spandana, Samyamas, you could be here and there. I was here, here, and here,
every moment of those days. If I was here and there, you wouldn’t be here today. I was on the dot, every moment, that’s why the programs are
what they are. But you were here and there. Now a time has come, you gotta be here, here, and here. There’s no here and there. Because knowingly, or unknowingly, you have come
as a participant in the consecration process, not as a witness. Not to receive the prasadam, but to make it happen. There’s a difference. There’s a difference between going to the
temple and building the temple. This is like building the temple,
it’s a different game. So I want you here, absolutely here. It’s very important. We will be doing a certain chant. I want all of you to give yourself
totally into this. This is about sensitizing the space,
which includes you. For whatever we’re going to do next, the space has to be vibrant enough, and you have to be vibrant enough. The chant is like you’re gossiping
with the Adiyogi, okay? So just gossip with him, don’t gossip with anybody else. Sadhguru chants Sarvebhyo Devebhyo Namaha
(Repeated by Participants)… (Back ground music) Sounds of Isha Music – Sanskrit chant -
Guru Paduka Stotram… (Background music) (Sadhguru conducts consecration process) Sounds of Isha Music – Sanskrit chant Bilvashatakam
(Background music)… Sadhguru: The fundamental process of consecration
is to sensitize the place. So this process… gone well. Tomorrow, we will go through the consecration process, which will involve a certain element of… like a tight-rope walking. No, I won’t make you walk. If I’m on the tight-rope, what will you do (Gestures)? If I’m on the tight-rope, what do you do? You must hold your breath,
and just be there. Absolutely. We need that cooperation from you. You’ve done well today, but tomorrow is crucial. So in preparation for that, when you sit down before you sleep, if you can establish the mantra in the body, you could also be a powerful instrument for the consecration process to happen. Spend some time on it, pay some attention. See if you can maintain this awareness of
the mantra in the body. (Sadhguru Chants) Sadhguru chants Nam Vam Rum mantra
(Repeated by Participants)… Sadhguru chants Karpoora Gauram
(Repeated by Participants)… Sadhguru: There are two levels of
consecration happening here. One is to consecrate the Linga, which is still in the waiting. We will go at it today evening, which is the most important part of
what we’re doing here. And the other is the seat. To create a hot seat,
so that(Laughs) because of the kind of thing that we are planning to do in this hall, we need a substantial support. The reason why we wanted to create an Adiyogi Alayam
is because we want to bring back classical yoga, in its purest form. Not the studio yoga, not the book yoga, not the kind of things that are being
done in the world. Proper classical yoga, which is a phenomenally powerful science. Only thing is, if you are given a choice between fundamental physics, computer science, software training, commerce, or just simply a degree, which would you choose? Many people would choose you know, three, four, two, three, four, five, but not the one. There’s only one science, when it comes to the world, there’s only one science which is physics. Everything else, is just an off-shoot of that. But how many people in the world, how many
people in the Universities in the world, do you think are studying physics today? Fundamental physics is studied by an extremely
miniscule number of people. Because people’s understanding of science is iPhone. Right now, people think that is a great
scientific achievement. It is just a fancy gadget. I am not trying to pull down the iPhone, it’s useful. But it is just a little gadget that is not science. Creating that is also not science, just a little bit of technology. Fundamental physics is the science. Similarly, in yoga, there is a classical science, which is the science. If you weaken the physics The reason why today, you have all these electronics
and all these gadgets, people are going to the moon, and Mars, and wherever, is because, first thirty, forty, fifty years of
scientific development, they invested in fundamental physics. You’re reaping the benefit of that now. You will see, after twenty-five, thirty years, if there are not too many people
– which already is the truth – if not too many people are
into fundamental physics, you will see, nothing new will come out of science, after some time. Because the basic scientific knowledge is missing. Some idiot who’s got the name of a yogi, I don’t know, maybe his parents made the mistake, or he took it on, I don’t know. He says, “Yoga made easy - Sit on a chair, and do: this, and this, and this” (Demonstrates lifting himself up
on the chair with his hands) (laughter). “This muscle will work, this muscle will work, this muscle will work (Gestures), yoga made easy.” A monkey knows this (Laughter). A monkey knows if he hangs from a tree like
this, like this (Gestures), this muscle will develop, this muscle will develop, this muscle will develop (Gestures). A chimpanzee knows it even better. You don’t need to be a yogi, to know that
if you do this on a chair (Gestures), this muscle will develop (Laughter). So this is yoga made easy. So I thought it’s good
I read it today (Laughter). So this is what is happening. Because there is no investment in the concrete science of yoga. Benefits - people are trying to reap. So one fundamental reason is we want to re-establish
classical yoga. We want to build people, who’re willing to invest their life
in the profoundness of yoga, not getting fancy benefits out of it. Not hanging onto a chair or a tree, and thinking you’re doing yoga. If you say, hang upside down from a tree,
you will be doing yoga, for some time. If you jump off a mountain head-down, you will be doing Sirishasan
for some time (laughter). Yes! So to bring back that dimension, and that’s not going to happen by instruction only. A phenomenal energy is needed, otherwise yoga cannot be taught. Without a phenomenal sense of energy, no yoga can be taught. If you teach yoga without creating a vessel
of energy, then that yoga is not yoga. That is just a farce. That farce is going all over the place, right now. So because we created it this Adiyogi Alayam with that intention, we want a powerful space. We want this to be such a vibrant space, that
if you simply sit here, really tune in to what’s happening here, in this hall. Or what will be happening here in
the next twenty-four hours, you must be able to know all the yoga sutras, you never have to open a book,
never have to listen to anybody. You just have to energy-tune yourself and
it’ll be there. Of course somebody will assist you a little bit. But if I say a word, if your energy does not throb with it,
you don’t know anything about it. You just know words. Words are not yoga. If you listen to something, that must happen in the system. Otherwise, that is not yoga. To make that happen,
you need a powerful space. Otherwise such things will not happen. Tomorrow when I say tomorrow, after our
chapter is over, I didn’t mean tomorrow-tomorrow. Tomorrow, when we are not here, there still has to be a space
which will teach yoga. Maybe there’ll be just a teacher, maybe there will be no Guru here, maybe there will be just a teacher. Even if a teacher stands here, suddenly, things should come out of them that they do not know. They should begin to say things. They should begin to feel things. They should begin to experience things that they themselves do not know. Only then, we can transmit this. That’s why so much effort has gone is
going into this, and will further, many more things have to be done with this. As I said, there are two dimensions of consecration happening happening simultaneously here. One is the seat, which is essentially to Mainly, if we have to describe it in terms of human system, it is not exactly like that, but it’s like the bull outside. it’s like it is the Muladhara. The nearest quality that I can ascribe to it is, Muladhara. It creates a stable base to sit on, always. This is very needed. Because… You may already know this, one thing that was said in the yoga sutras about the Hatha yoga is, “Sukham Sthiram Asanam”
– an asana which is comfortable and stable. That’s the asana. So stability, balance is the most important aspect. Whatever we wish to do, how far one goes, how high one climbs, is not a question
of strength alone, not a question of intelligence alone, not a question of knowledge alone, not a question of external conduciveness. Stability, balance, is the most important quality. If this one thing is not there, with all the other things, you still may not make it anywhere. Because you don’t have the necessary balance. So the other consecration, the seat consecration, is essentially for stability. It is like the Muladhara. When I look at the bull,
it’s like the bull. Just there. Reliable. Always there. Because that is very, very important. When one wants to dispense his own energies,
when one wants to throw his life energies all over the place, having a stable, balanced seat is most important. If you… See, if you stand up on the floor, if your legs are hurting, your back is hurting, your head is paining, you can still stand. Suddenly, there was a drop of half an inch in the floor,
(Gestures - Acts off-balance) you will become like this Whatever else may be happening, you can still withstand and stand there. Suddenly, if there is a little lack of balance, you will find, that is the most threatening thing, always. So when you sit here, to dispense your life energies, that is, you don’t restrain your
life energies to your physical form. You want to throw it all over the place, the most important thing is stability. Why, when we do Bhava Spandana programs, when we do Samyama programs, particularly the Samyama, we are putting such rigid rules… Many people describe it as worse
than a boot camp. I’m happy that they feel that way, because if you slacken the situation, you will see, those kind of energies can It’ll be foolish to do that, first of all. It’ll be just foolhardy to attempt such things where the situation is not stable and balanced. So stability becomes the most important thing when you really throw yourself
all over the place. So the seat is essentially created for stability, it creates a stable base. It has that quality, it’s happened very well today. (Background Music) Sounds of Isha Music – Sanskrit chant -
Chidambareshvara stotram… Sadhguru: They will bring some black paste
for you, it has been prepared, it’s a black Mysore pak (Referring
– One kind of Indian sweet) (Laughter). Don’t eat it. Place it place a dot between your eyebrows. And they will also bring some black sesame seeds, you take the sesame seeds, three or four seeds, and place it – stick it – to that paste. Why this is so, I will tell you. Right now, we’ll start doing it, it’ll
take a certain amount of time to spread it around. Why this black…? A black on your forehead, black cloth, black so many things, why? Something is black, or something seems to be black for you,
because it reflects nothing, it absorbs everything. So, when you’re in a space which is very
vibrantly, positively charged, the best color to put on is black, because you want to take
in as much as you can. When you’re in a place where you’re in the world, exposed to a million different things, then the best thing to put on is white, because you don’t want to absorb anything. You want to reflect everything. So a black spot between your eyebrows and the black sesame is I think, most people who grown up in In India are aware,
that sesame is a good receptacle. You’re not supposed to receive this from anybody, because they could easily charge it with negative energy and give it to you. It can also be charged with positive energy and given to you. It is just that it’s a very good conductor. It conducts energy. It retains whatever it comes in touch with. So you will see that the Prasad (Referringto Hindi word - edible offering
given to devotees) that is given in the Dhyanalinga is made of sesame. Whenever we want to transmit something
through physical means, sesame and salt are two things which we make use of. (Continuing the process) Sadhguru: So we’re also using
some milk from a black cow, which is traditionally known as a Kara Pashu. And also, we have some venom from a black cobra. Both these things, both these substances are
very dear to him. (Sadhguru drinks milk and venom mixture) (Sounds of Isha Music Song) Sounds of Isha Music – Sanskrit chant –
Daridraya Dahana Shiva Stotram… Sadhguru chants Karpoora Gauram
(Repeated by Participants)… Recorded Music – Sanskrit chant
– Shiva Tandava Stotram… Sadhguru: You like the hall? You like the hall? Participants: Yes (Applause)! Sadhguru: I see it’s already not enough
(Few laugh). People are spilling out (Laughs). So essentially, last three-and-half to four months is
when all the work was done. So many people, maybe many of you who are here,
have contributed to make this happen. And our Brahmacharis, residents, the our people who are in charge of the construction
here, it’s been a phenomenal feat. In the sense, I think, during this period of construction, at least fifty percent of the days,
it was raining. You should have seen, just two days three days ago, how the site was. So they would be too embarrassed if I asked them to come up. But all these young boys, our Brahmacharis, and so many other residents and a few mediators… (Gestures a Namaskaram as gratitude)
(Applause). He looks little weird, I said (Few laugh). Even I look nice and civilized
in front of him (laughter). He is known to be weird. When Parvati insisted that she must marry him. Or Sati insisted that he has to marry him and he said “okay.” Then the wedding was setup. All the guests came. People gathered. Dressed through their wedding best. Big celebration. Then the groom came. Like this (Gestures as inebriated) (Laughter). And he was inebriated. And he had friends who were like,
you saw them (Laughter). He had really freaky friends,
who didn’t even look human. And they were not. They were not human, and they were not interested in pretending to be human. So they just came, all of them inebriated. Making cacophonic noises of their own. Speaking in a language that
nobody could understand. Making loud noises, they came. They were almost about to pass the wedding
and go on, because they don’t even know where they’re going (Few laugh). The mother of the bride, Meena, saw him and she said, “Am I giving my daughter to this man?” She just looked at him, and
she fainted (Few laugh). If you can make your mother-in-law faint, you gotta be something
(Laughter/Applause). You gotta be really something if you have to make your mother-in-law faint (Laughter). So he’s like that. For the wedding, because when he was when people pleaded and when the bride pleaded, “Please for my sake, get civilized, look better.” Then he transformed himself into an absolutely handsome man, so well-dressed. That form of him is known as the Sundaramurti. He became a fabulous man, absolutely handsome and civilized, just for the wedding (Laughter). Because you’re not gonna get married to him
(referring to the Adiyogi Linga), so he’s okay (Few laugh). We don’t have to make him beautiful, he’s okay like this. Questioner: Sadhguru, you drank Cobra’s
venom with milk, why? Sadhguru: It’s venom, it’s not poison. You need to understand that. Venom affects you only when it gets into your bloodstream,
not necessarily in your stomach. But invariably, there will be some opening, somewhere, some small cut,
some small ulcer, something… it will enter, it has. Both my eyelids are little droopy,
otherwise, I’m okay. So whatever I offer to him, how do I offer to him without
me taking it on? Venom worked out very well for me
a long time ago. Well, it took my life away, but it gave me something
more precious than life. So venom did not work against me, venom worked for me and
it’s continued to work for me (Applause). So, there are various aspects to it. My only concern is, if I speak about this, people will understand it in bits and pieces and take those bits and pieces and… they may get bitten (Laughs). Venom, in small doses, is very intoxicating. Too much of anything kills you. Even oxygen kills you,
do you know this? Pongal (Referring to – a southIndian sweet dish)
can kill you (Laughter). Too much Pongal can kill you, believe me. Yes (Laughs), it does. Probably Pongal kills more people
than cobra’s venom. Yes, it does. Blood gets little thick. Right now, if I try to climb a mountain, I may have a heart attack. Because blood is little thicker
than what it should be. But it makes the system so vibrant. Above all, I didn’t want to offer it to him, unless I’m willing to take it, too. So this he likes it. He drinks it up. Solidified mercury, takes in only three substances. Actually, we could experiment, but I don’t want to do such things. With another piece of mercury we could try this, you can see this actually. It will take in gold, it will take in silver, and it will take only cobra’s venom. You give it some other venom, he won’t take it. He’s very choosy about it. He wants only that. There’s only three substances
that he will eat. Nothing else he will touch. So that’s not without reason, there is good reason for that. If you’re made in a certain way. Energy-wise, if you’re in a certain way, if you’re vibrant beyond a point, then the cobra’s venom works in a completely
different way on the system. You might have heard… You might have heard, traditionally, particularly in Tamil Nadu, some of the Siddhas use this. If somebody is poisoned, then they will take many bites from the cobra, and they will recover. Have you heard of this? Hmm? Particularly in South. And one famous case,
in history, is Bhima. Bhima was poisoned, and then he was put in a river, where snakes bit him repeatedly, and he recovered from the poison
that he had eaten. It can do many things to you. The reason why the symbolism of the snake
– the raised hood upon Shiva’s head, worn as an ornament. Shiva is generally described as Trinetra. That means, one who’s third eye has opened, which essentially means that he has reached
the peak of perception. Everything that can be perceived is perceived by him. He’s using snake as a symbolism to, in a way, the statement is, that he’s as perceptive as a snake. What is so perceptive about a snake? A snake in – let’s say Velliangiri mountains knows more about the spiritual sciences than
any of you, for sure. Than any of… any spiritual book that you can read
on the planet, he knows more about it. Not intellectually, energy-wise. Everything that has happened in this region. Phenomenal things have happened in this region. If you want to know the science of, let’s say, creating Dhyanalinga, they know. Energy-wise, not intellectually. If you can feel energy-wise and then being human you can translate it into intellect… If you experience something, you are able to intellectualize
and then articulate, to whatever extent possible, that is essentially a human quality. But he simply knows it,
energy-wise, by experience. If you have the necessary thing to just observe him,
he will literally tell you almost anything that’s happening upon this planet, by the simple change in his behavior
and how he handles himself. A snake is a very perceptive animal. You cannot call it an animal,
because it’s above Shiva. Not at his feet, he places it above himself, saying,
“He’s as good as me,” right here (Gestures as besides head), “As good as me,” not here
(Gestures to feet). I could do wonderful things with snake venom. To people. But today’s world, if I attempt anything like that, even if the news spreads If I gave you a drop of venom and even if you felt wonderful, and even if the meter said
you’re feeling great (Few laugh)… No. This could mean a It could be, according to the criminal procedure code, it could be a crime. So we’re living in a certain kind of world, where there’s no room for profoundness. Sometimes I wonder why the hell am I still around (Laughs). Because there’s no room for profoundness. There’s simply the more profane you are, the better you are, in this world, today. That’s how it is. Just about everything. When people can even pride themselves that
they have no attention span, and they’re very proud of it. They have a short attention span,
and they’re very proud of it. I can’t believe what’s happening
to humanity (Laughs). I’m from another time, unfit in this world, probably. Nine types of poisons they’ve mixed and
made it into medicine in this land. Heard of Nava pashanam? Mercury, which just about anywhere in the world, people fear it as poison it is a main ingredient of the
Siddha medicine in South India. So what is poison and what is the elixir of life, simply depends on who you are. And Shiva has always been
known as the Neelkantha that means a poisoned throat. Now if you have a cobra hanging around your throat, you wear a cobra as an ornament, you’re bound to have your throat bitten
often enough to turn blue. There isn’t another man, there has never been another man
with the capabilities and the knowing that this (Referring to Adiyogi) man was. There hasn’t been one till then since then. Everybody whom you worship in this land – if you’re a Rama worshiper, if you’re a Krishna worshipper – well, all of them worshipped Shiva. I’m not trying to set superiority, inferiority business,
Vaishanavas and Shaivas fighting, I’m not talking about them. I’m saying, right through history, just everybody that
you held as a divine being, all of them. Krishna never started his day without
his doing morning Shiva pooja. Everyday. Even on the day of the war,
he was doing it. Particularly, Mahabharata mentions it, that even when the battle was on, even those eighteen days, all others were busy, worried, about what’s gonna happen today, but he did his morning Shiva pooja
before he stepped out. In his own life, he was seen as a God, nothing less than that. Even he, because there hasn’t been another
one like him with his capabilities, with his knowing, with his perception… It’s been the highest that humanity has hit. Maybe we can’t take pride in it, because maybe he was not human. Not maybe. He was not. Questioner: Sadhguru, how is the Adiyogi linga different from Dhyanalinga, and what aspect of Shiva is being brought out in the Adiyogilinga? Sadhguru: You cannot compare Dhyanalinga with anything else. There isn’t another thing like this
on the planet. I could do a thousand of these (Referring
to the Adiyogi linga consecration) things in my life. But I will not be able to do even one more
of that (Referring to Dhyanalinga). It’s very different. Everything is different. It’s a different dimension, altogether. While in logical thought, there may not be much difference, because that also has seven Chakras, this also has seven Chakras. Everyone has seven Chakras only (Laughter). Adiyogi also has only seven. So it’s not the same. If I go into the detail, how it’s not the same… But let’s… let’s come to this. Adiyogi, he will do something very specific. You can hire him for a job. You can’t hire him (Referring to Dhyanalinga )
for anything. He’s simply there. So this (Referring to the Adiyogi linga) guy
is more useful? Yes, if you look at it in a certain way,
he’s more useful. But if you go by usefulness of life,
you will lose your life. You know, there’s a beautiful situation
in Mahabharata, I’ve spoken about this, probably in Bhava Spandana,
probably in Samyama. A time comes when everyone has to be on some side, either this side or that side of the battle. When the time to choose comes,
the Pandavas choose Krishna. Krishna puts up this thing, “Either you can have me,
or you can have my army, which is ten thousand strong.” Duryodhana chooses the army,
Pandavas choose Krishna. And beforehand, Krishna says,
“I’m not gonna fight, I’m just gonna be there.” So Pandavas said,
“It doesn’t matter. It doesn’t matter what happens. We want you to be with us, that’s all.” Duryodhana thought, “These guys have a history
of being stupid…” (Laughter), “…and this is it. This crowns it all.” You going into your battle. Instead of picking up a ten thousand strong army, you pick up one man who is not willing to fight. This is the peak of stupidity. But that made all the difference. That made all the difference. And that’s how life is. For a specific purpose, he’s (Referring to the Adiyogi linga) been created
for a specific purpose. He will serve that purpose wonderfully well. He (Referring to Dhyanalinga) is not been
created for any specific purpose. He is simply there, like the universe. An insect may have a purpose, a bird may a purpose, an animal may have a purpose, a tree may have a purpose, a plant have a purpose, a weed may have its purpose. But the universe has no purpose,
and the creator has no purpose. So you can choose an insect against the creator,
because it’s more useful. So I’m just saying, if you go with a certain logic of utility,
you will miss the fundamentals. You will miss the ultimate nature of life. So every time something comes up, don’t compare it to Dhyanalinga (Laughs). Ask, “Okay, is Bhairavi better than Dhyanalinga?” Last time I think this question came. Now, “Is Adiyogi better than”... Okay, there is no competition for him
(Referring to Dhyanalinga) (Few laugh), but he is not in the race (Laughs). But he’s not in the race, but there’s no competition for him. But he’s never going to be in the race. So every time something happens, don’t compare. As I told you, I can do… I can consecrate a thousand like this. If we have the money, the resource, we can do thousand Adiyogis. Actually, today if we wanted, we could have consecrated
maybe ten at a time, and kept it ready. Suppose you build a hall in town, you could’ve just sent him (Laughs). Yes, we could have done ten. We had enough energy and anyway all of you are there, you’re ten thousand, so thousand I could have done one, at least (Laughter). We could have easily done ten or more, but
that’s not the case with that. That cannot be done again. Just out of question. Definitely, I cannot do it. I don’t see anybody, right now, on this
planet who can do it (Applause). Tomorrow, if somebody comes, I don’t know. Sometime in future, if somebody comes,
we do not know. But right now, I don’t see anybody on the planet
who can do that (Few Applause). So I wish to what should I tell you… I wish to congratulate you for having successfully
consecrated the Adiyogi Alayam, all of you (Gestures a Namaskaram) (Applause). At a time like this, when I’m doing something like this, if you have experienced me as a nice person, I’m not a nice person when
I’m onto something like this. Because this needs a certain kind of focus. This needs a certain kind of – not mental focus alone – it needs a certain kind of energy focus, which doesn’t spare any room for niceties of life,
and behavior and conduct. It’s just that. So I’ve been in a certain way
last two days. If it’s been little too whatever for you… If it’s little been rude, or scary, you
haven’t seen Shiva (Laughs). He’s rude and scary. It’s been really wonderful being… that all of you being here, and absolute participation from all of you. It’s been great having you here. And these things, should always be done only
with small groups of people, individuals who have a
certain intimacy with you. Otherwise, it’s risky. I assumed this intimacy
with all of you (Applause). And it’s truly wonderful that without any aberration, all of you went through this,
in a wonderful manner. I bow down you for this
(Gestures a Namaskaram) Sadhguru chants Yogeshwaraya Mahadevaya… Participant 1: Adiyogi Alayam, to come up straight in six months, that too an architectural wonder at that. It’s truly amazing. Participant 2: Ten thousand people sitting together
in a hall, all in whites and chanting, that was amazing. Participant 3: I was not even almost aware
that there were so many around me. Participant 4: I could just feel the flood of energy. Participant 3: When they cleared the hall, that’s when I realized that the hall is that huge. Participant 5: It felt that I was seeped into it, and it was very intense. Participant 6: Whole space was just with his energy, blasting with his energy. Participant 7: He drank the venom and the milk… Participant 8: I felt my throat was choking at that point. Participant 7: It was like
I personally drank the venom. Participant 8: He’s Shiva (Laughs). Participant 3: Somehow it cranked up my intensity… Participant 9: It almost magical because I didn’t realize something like
that was possible. But I witnessed it… Participant 10: Just felt like the Shiva was there I just couldn’t take it
anymore after that. It just looked like he was there. Participant 9:absolutely real,
and very tangible. Participant 11: Tears were flowing because
I felt so happy, being here. Participant 9: It’s like a thunderbolt. Participant 11: In US and world, we don’t
have anything, a place like this. Participant 12: I am joyful from inside. And some unknown festival feeling is going inside. Participant 11: I’m in love with this place. (Instrumental music)
