True way to Meditate | Everyone Forgot this | Sadhguru Never give tips | SADHGURU

a whole lot of people this survey was done i think in 94 or 96 i'm not very sure about the date but sometime in the 90s early 90s the nimhans institute did a survey and they found eight percent of the inpatient who in patients not outpatients in patients who come and stay in their hands for a period of treatment eight percent of them came because of improper yoga and meditation because if you forcefully try to do something with your mind it will freak [Music] now we must understand the english word meditation does not say anything specific in the sense if someone sits here with eyes closed people think he's meditating but as you said you could be sitting here and talking to yourself you could be thinking you could be contemplating maybe you're chanting a mantra it's called japa you may be doing tapa which is a way of generating heat in the system you may be doing dhara dhyanasamadhi samyama like this there are many many things english language is not descriptive when it comes to inner dimensions english language is very good outside technically materially it's a very good language but when it comes to inner experiences there are not enough words to describe the various dimensions of human experience that happens so the word english meditation is very general doesn't say anything specific if we if we understand uh if we want to understand the word meditation as dhyan or dhana being in karnataka it's dhyana okay if you go to tamil nadu it becomes the anam if it is diana or dhyana that you're talking about what it means is if you sit here your body is here your mind is out there what is you is somewhere else that means there is a little distance between you and your body between you and your mind once there is little distance between you and your body and your mind suddenly everything is crystal clear what you think is so complicated is very very simple it's just like right now i came through what a city you created this this dimension of what you call as meditation is essentially a little distance so you're in the traffic how bad it is suppose you took off in an airplane or a balloon you know hot air balloon or something you look down this tuck-up traffic looks quite nice really in the night especially it looks quite nice when the traffic is jammed up have you seen this from the airplanes but when you are in it it's a totally different affair when you're in it the way you suffer it is one thing once there is distance is a totally different affair see for example this planet is round though bangalore people think it's flat so forever we argued we would have continued to argue because if you walk up and down this floor you can feel its flat of course but we started flying we looked down clearly it was round then we went and stood on the moon and looked down 100 it is round no argument anymore this is what you need to do with your mind and your body there's a little distance suddenly everything is crystal clear simple things for people have lived here for 50 60 years and they still don't know how to handle their thought and emotion when are they going to learn after thousand years when if if you do not know how to handle your thought how the hell did you live till now i don't know by accident when you live by accident anxiety is normal how else can it be suppose accidentally you just you don't know how to drive ride a motorcycle or a car let's say accidentally it started rolling anxiety or no yeah picked up speed fear or no yeah became very fast terror or no but if you know how to drive the faster it goes the better it is the same with your mind and body because you are enmeshed in it haven't figured a damn thing about it it looks very complicated little distance this is this is meditation in a way so if you create that little distance suddenly everything is clear what looks so complicated is just a simple thing you think meditation is some kind of an act it is not an act it is a consequence if you cultivate your body your intellect your emotion and your energy in a certain way meditation will happen as a quality not as an act people are doing 10 minutes meditation they will freak themselves after some time for sure a whole lot of people this survey was done i think in 94 or 96 i'm not very sure about the date but sometime in the 90s early 90s the nimhans institute did a survey and they found eight percent of the inpatient who in patients not outpatients in patients who come and stay in their hands for a period of treatment eight percent of them came because of improper yoga and meditation because if you forcefully try to do something with your mind it will prick it's very important when you have been given do you agree with me this human mechanism is the most sophisticated machine on this planet do you agree with me have you read the user's manual then how then how do you use it just by accident so just few tips of not doing this mistake how how to go about it see it is these titbits which have destroyed people the reason the reason why spiritual process has become a ridiculous circus i'm saying this consciously it's become a circus because everybody is trying to do it on the street side on the street side they want to seek teach gita krishna waited for many years arjuna and krishna you have arjuna about arjuna and krishna were intimate they know each other so well but krishna waited till the last moment where there is an extreme situation where arjuna's mind is being crushed he waits for that moment to give the teaching but all kinds of idiots are reading it on the street corner without creating any situation nobody knows what the hell it is simply words and words and words as you said when you listen to it suddenly you find you have to shut down everything and listen because as simple as it is you don't get it because it is not its complex but the simplicity is a problem for the human intellect if you're trying to grasp think through through intellect complicated things you will grasp simplest things people around me are always freaked because i am telling them the simplest thing but they are thinking through many things most simple things because it is very simple birth is not your doing death is not your doing it happens both of them happen in between you just have to be just have to be bind us that's all you don't have to give birth to yourself nor do you have to kill yourself both will happen naturally what are you doing here everything is happening you don't have to spin the planet and make it day and night you don't have to do this and that everything is happening for you to be just here be in tune with everything and receive the bounty of life such a big mess because they are looking at everything intellectually when i say intellectually the nature of your intellect is such if i ask you a question do you want a sharp intellect or a dull intellect you must choose i'm going to bless you right now so essentially you want a sharp intellect that means it's a cutting instrument it's like a knife the sharper the better you don't want a blunt knife you want a sharp knife now this is the only instrument you have in your life for everything you use a knife if you want to stitch your clothes you use a knife i wear that girl gone i think she used a knife on her pants [Applause] if you use your knife to stitch you will leave it in tattles isn't it that's all you're doing to your life that is all you are just leaving it in tatters simply because you're using a knife to handle everything [Music]
