- -is spirituality a rich person’s area?
-why are we so poor?
-In early days mystics were individuals
who meditated and were in penance in forests, now we see a lot of mystic individuals who have huge foundations, who have companies.
-is this a healthy trend ?
-most people’s idea of a mystic is the Sivakasi calendar
-gurus were always around the kings not because of their palaces, because of their concern - unless the one who rules
transforms himself, there will be no benefit
for the people.

250 years ago India was rich because at that time our strength was spirituality
Disparity was same...
India was rich not because of spirituality, u r confusing business sense with spirituality, one who is spiritual is beyond earthly things like wealth, India was rich because it controlled the global economic value chain, british destroyed that chain and we are where we are
Cry0 Gam3r beyond earthly material means it is not the limit but it doesn't means it is excluded
@@thealchemist4025 shut up bloody rascal ,stop critisizing bharat varsh dharm
Anybody can possess wealth. But spirituality is about not being attached to what you have.
Uh-hmm
I really like that second sentence.
Anything that you posses more than what you need to fulfil human's basic/primary requirements, should be considered as "attachments" or "greediness". Thanks
@@milindkansara5 depends, it's not like he's not putting the money to good use
YES Sadguru is correct...Indians are spiritual that is why most poor folks have not turned to criminal enterprises. They still believe in earning money by hard work.
Donkey
hackers and scammers on Internet and selling Mariuhana on dark web and are owners from sex abuser pages, groups and comunity's and hiding their real id, is not criminal? And use many fake accounts under the same name or different names but on their Relationship Status Quotes Pages, they are praying much but use different religions also?
and all that cheaters and betrayers who are searching for romantic and try to get Visa?
and what about all that rapers, and the people there who killing baby girls already in the womb?
a Left wing fool and a right wing hypocrite are two sides of the same coin :)
Oh sadhguru what a reasonable sensible & epic reply..... Made my heart fill with joy
I better not start watching his videos before the bed time. I keep watching them and never go to bed. So addictive to listen to him. I don't think even crystal ball will be so clearer than his answers.
I do the same thing lol.
I watch his talks all night long very addictive.
I stopped listening to the radio long time ago since I found this channel on UA-cam I listen to talks in the car now all the time and at home I can't get enough lol.
I no longer waste my time at Starbucks or Facebook etc.
I don't find a need to talk on the phone anymore I enjoy listening to his way of view it makes me think differently
I don't find the need to go out and waste my time with shit that is not for my highest growth in the long term.
Same here
He is just superb
They tried pulling him down.
And he had the balls to face what ever question was fired at him
but he pulled of others balls, now they are all tattaless students studying there. they dont even know that they have become shameless.
NALSAR students are the best example of worst attitude... They survive only till they r in University .. 🤣😂
Many students clapped for Sadhguru too.
No they might eat the society like insects after passing out
But, fools make others aware😂😂... because of their foolish questions..we are able to get answers for those...
They will get thrashed in real world bro.....rest of India does not think like those foolish nalsar idiots
@@robinsonwright9623 it is not about clapping , the point is there is no need of cheering . This is not the event of amusement.
Poor and rural people are more spiritual than rich and urban people. They are living more happily than any rich person. They don't need spirituality to become happy and peaceful they are already
Good reply
Unfortunately it is not so now...things have changed.
Lets do something about it.
Please find one peaceful person in this world !
@@sukantasahoo4278 poor people beggars are more peaceful and joyful then any rich person.
Have u urself been poor and been rich to make that assessment??
Gurus are humans just like we are, major difference is that they know how to maintain their happiness longer than the average since they have awareness that make it work for them. Just be thankful that they are helping you to expand awareness to make your life better
exactly, but sadhgurus help in this university was more than wasted.
if he thinks his maid is poor then he should pay his maid a better wage
ahahahahah exactly!
Leftists don't understand common sense.
If her maid will get reach, what he cry for next?
AND HIS MAID WILL MAKE 4000 IN 5 HOUSES SO 20000
Thuggee
Yes he should do that.
Just 5000/- rupees? That's still very little wages for her to earn in one whole month per house.
He meant it.
Sadhguru answers it.
.
'but Sadhguru i didn't mean it!'
These guys are same like barakha dutta
There are thousands of barkhas and rajdeeps and rabish hv born in india and they are the serious threats for the internal safty of bharat.they should be countered by all petriots of india
I no words to express my immense gratitude and appreciation for the wisdom and wit that Sadhguru shares with all people in our world. Many Salaams Guru Ji
Marvelous speech"in ancient times everybody was walking, not just a yogi"
Had goosebumps literally. His thoughts just united our whole nation as one so beautifully, keeping spirituality and culture as it's foundation. Sadhguru redefining yoga every single day. 🙏
I don't think there is anything wrong with gurus or anyone having wealth as long as you rule and it doesn't rule you while still being balanced.
its a stupid perception and people expect too much from guru's. we are not in the mahabharat times anymore. people look for faults in a guru and microanalyse him like anything and the smallest thing they find they will use that against him. Even sadhguru is a human! even he is living in the 21st century!
Yes!!! It's not their money to hoard..Wealth belongs to the people. The people make the Nation from all walks of Life......The governments are corrupt and always have been, absolute power corrupts ie in charge of the economic situation in India makes them full of hubris!!!
How can you be balanced and be wealthy economical the same time poverty exists around you? There is no balance in this. We have always given money a far greater value than it truly has. To tell you the truth in a healthy and advanced society money will be non existential. Its just another illusion like religions.
The students at nalsar showed they are primary school kids. The whole session according to them was a mock. I got to know the real nalsar when I first first time saw that video ...that was full of noise...nobody was listening to what sadhguru said. Pathetic people😕
a man in hungry cannot focus on meditation/ praying/ spiritual . That is the reason why, in all Hindu temples Prasadam is provided
N A L S A R ... A N O T H E R J N U I N M A K I N G .
I m from jnu . Most students of jnu are not left leaning. They are nationalist and believe in the indian culture .
@@moirangthemvikassingh6175 then why is jnu protesting for over two months...?
simply shit making and burden to a nation.
Checkout who thep Vice-chancellor is and his videos on UA-cam
"This is what happened when you close your eyes and open your mind...."
I believe one can have both...Since we are ulimited beings...!! Financial success and spiritual success..!! Namaste !!!❤
I felt Sadhguru was Rude to the person was just raising a query or trying to clarify the query..!
This kind of questions is a waste of time for everyone who came for wisdom from a guru
I just love listening to all the different talks with Sadhguru. 🙏🏼. They also make me laugh.
Perfect reply to the questioner
A normal guru making g money is no wrong , but if a person who says he has left everything and he is sanyasi then he can't , the question asked by first student was right but guru didn't understand, it is not about inner strength , it is about hunger which brings great philosophy in everyone, these people find reasons to make money you rich brats want to spend more ey on them. Just read Mahabharata or ramayana or Gita you dont need any sadh guru
@@Global-ex6vu you did not understand what this guru has said, how can anyone do good things without money ? should he beg. This is what guru asked the questioner. Sadhguru later explains about thousands of people have been fed every day, how many schools he is running and all that stuff . without money obviously he has to stop all these .watch it with open mind you will understand better
@@Global-ex6vu even poor people want to hear things which calm them, he does that in rural parts of India for free, spirituality is not for riches everyone can get its benefits, now you are watching this video for free, you are not paying for this knowledge you get
@@suryasurya-ge1vw nice reply
Brilliant answers Guru Ji
Appreciate your actions towards our goals and Prosperity of this Nation.
People should appreciate and respect and get to know about it.
Thank 😊 Guru Ji
So My question to sadhguru is that how far they have been successful in transforming the ruling class of India. Since 1990
I see no die hards reply here. The false claims have no track. Simple.
Before viewing this I think it is intended as a disrespectful question.
It was. And Sadhguru laid it on him. "Thank you, Sir," he said.😐
He didn't mean any disrespect. That's his take on things. Why do we take questions as disrespect?
@@newsjunkieish ....they want to protect their precious guru so any challenging question will be seen as disrespectful. I would like some seriously challenging questions to be asked of this man and his agenda.
@@cspace1234nz what questions? sadhguru has no agenda. he has only selflessly worked on improving the conditions of the world and our country. what have you done? go ask him the questions then if you can do that at least! you have not even done that! sit back and don't talk trash and people who are actually improving things!
@@EpicBunty .....you see what you want to see, you have no idea whether what he's doing is 'selfless', him and so many others before him.
cspace1234nz oh shut up
If you have seriously followed sadhgurus teachings over the years you would not have any questions about his good intentions for humanity
But then some people can never see good in anything anyway!
It's a wise question! Loved the thinking of this man... But Sadhguru is Sadhguru!
these nalsar students never learned about respect. they all tried to bring questions for just fame. no quality in question.
sadhguru👍😄🙂
All the truths of life which I wanted to know and some even I know and couldn't express this guy explains it so articulately and beautifully. BLESSED
That chutiya law student can't even talk properly
And he is gonna fight a court case
I iiii wannnt totototo presennt mmmy evidence lol
exactly, feels very irritating
Education is wasted on these spoilt rich Indian turds!!!!
True. The law student nailed it though whether people like it or not.
@Udit Basumatary India is doing well. It, like China have come a long way. I have many friends and colleagues from India and they always work hard and work intelligently. Personally, I have the greatest respect for most Indians. They are good people. One big thing India has to battle is corruption.
@@Ray-wm8dz no you're wrong one big thing india needs to battle is islamic terror inside of india lots of goons here come in huge mobs pelt stones on cops and army and the security forces are not allowed to shoot them
He didn't answer the question he was asked. Why the company's and foundations.
This was an edited version. If you are interested please see the full version 😊
Ah again the same urban naxal college
"Money is a good servant ; but a bad master"!
How right was someone in his assessment in saying so !
The Guru is very good in articulation. In the name of spirituality some Gurus are super rich. This guy is asking the right question but the Guru gets upset.
The student was in mental poverty and so general audience as well. Sadhguru showed path to understand nature of poverty
and remedy .Thanks for this video.
Its true Yogis,Swamis and Mystics were always contemporary,but driving a G63 Merc AMG and a Ducati,is pure indulgence,i m sure,you,will make Osho look like a pauper someday Sadhguru
It takes money to run foundations & to meet the needs that present themselves. It takes money to buy food, it takes money to pay electricity invoices, it takes money for housing, it takes money to reach out to others in a substantial way. It takes money to to pay wages, it takes money for fuel etc. etc. etc. You cannot compartmentalize a human without consequences. We see the separation of a person into all these compartments, we are broken into pieces & see ourselves as distinctly having different aspects of ourselves. My spiritual self as being separated from my physical self, & separated from my sexual self & separated from my mental self & separated from my financial self which is also separated from my emotional self. We think of ourselves as 6 or more separate units, instead of embracing ourselves as a whole person who is united spiritually, physically, mentally, emotionally, sexually, & financially. No wonder we are splintered & questing, we need to gather ourselves up & embrace all of ourselves as one being. This includes finances. All workers are worthy of their keep, & more so when they are helping to keep others fed, nourished, educated, housed, empowered & motivated. None attachment is the key, having something is not wrong, desiring with no end may be unadvised but being unable to release it where needed will bring suffering to all.I think if he has money, uses it wisely to help where it is needed by releasing it for use, it may then be wise & empowerment & help to others not just himself. There is a cost to everything in this life. It is the same here, however, we do not have as many spiritual teachers to call on.
Good response, Sadguru.
In ancient times everybody was on foot. ROFL. ;) Many of us know so little. Read, listen, think and only then seek answers to your questions. Be humble and polite. You may go places.
He's awesome 🔥✨🌸🧡🙏 clearest perception I have ever witnessed . 🙇♀️
"There are people in the world, so hungry, that God cannot appear to them except in the form of bread." - Gandhi
All talk on such matters is heard best when the tummy is full, probably that is why the newest religion, Sikhism, feeds everyone, regardless of caste, creed etc first.
Yeh but none of the Old time mystic charge money for the masses to teach them how to do physical yoga and promised them transformation or built their own foundation.
Also Swami Vivekananda tried to transform Kings/rulers.
Namaskarm Sadhguru
You are doing very well.
"Wealth", "poor" ...we need to reclean the defination of this words.
Sadhguru.....is a extraordinary person.... because inspired learning of lot of speech ..
Well said! sadhguru! my applauses for such clarity of thought!
Grateful for my Guru, Sadhguru, as every time I fall unconsciously, His Video's Magically "APPEAR on my phone or xbox 360 ! No Joke, now I Hear his voice in my head, GIVING me Ultimate Knowing, telling me which way to go to HOLD ON, to CONsIOuSNESS! Bless you!
Everybody is gangsta.....till Sadhguru speaks........
A man who truely works hard becomes famous,healthy This kind of people dont beg.people donate on their own conscience
As a non-Indian, I find it fascinating listening to these conversations. Maybe Spiritual Leaders can create wealth if they intend to put that wealth to good use. Getting rich for yourself and your own, personal, gain is far from Spiritual in my opinion. This is the issue I have with American Gurus corpretizing and busnessizing - not proper words but you get the point - spirituality all the time. The problem is, of course, you will get wrapped up in your wealth and cease being spiritual after a while, naturally.
Namaste. My Best. Out.
My grandmother, she was orphaned at a young age, at 4 or 5 age. she didn't have her mother or father. she worked her entire life, living a poor, below the poverty line life. struggling for daily wages. struggling to feed her 6 sons. But in that hardship, she never swayed away from her path of spirituality. She always believed it. And her children worked hard. harder. and now we live a better standard of life which comes close to being described as rich. I was once a blind atheist than an agnostic and now a believer on my own path. My grandmother never questioned any of my beliefs but she always said I will find my calling.
Being rich or poor has nothing to do with spirituality. My grandmother never lost hers in her 50 years of misery living a poor harsh life. Its what makes INDIANS stronger
True spirituality will teach you the way of life. Will teach you how to live life not just attain Mukti. I hope everyone of us find ourselves in this journey. love to all - - Karthik
Now who is ur god?
👍👍
00:01, 11:34 --- could someone point to the whole version of this musical and rhythmical delight, please?
na hi shiva sneha from sounds of isha
Thanks for all the advice given. There is an archestered trolling against any body who is viewing vedio and telling his response in public opinion. I learned only positive things from Sadhguru. Only one observation I made ,all my others are only reply to reaction over my observation. I m a single person. I don't have a trolling technical team to back up. Thanks for all once again
Here after he will think 100000 times before asking a question to sadguru 👌👌👌 whattt an answer....simply marvelous
That's why we love and respect Sadguru .
The question asked by student was not even a question but answer itself.
After hearing the questions I am worried about my nation
The great Guru that I met never spoke a word to me. One day He did something. waw, superhuman power and then He disappeared. Balance is the Best. Great Video
So true!! Unless you transform that one fool the political system will not change!❤❤❤
a good teacher, does not make fun of ignorant young students and is not overbearing and does not laugh at them! Sadhguru was also young and ignorant once! Besides, this man says a lot, but he does not know everything! He talks a lot as the day is long and is just so powerful and meaningful, through his followership! A man is only as powerful as his followers let him be? Why are young people who follow him, killed by his organization, when their parents, desperate to have their children back?
Students are brilliant. No matter what this person is they are still curious to ask questions above questions.
Wonderful answers Sadhguru ji
HaHAHA ! Way to go Sat Guru. Humour is the sixth sense of the human being and all enlightened masters demonstrate hu - mour. Huuuuuuu.
Such heavy words . CONGRATULATIONS you are now leading the blind!
First comes material success. Then comes spiritual success
That nonsense,success and failures man made frames,spirituality when u can see urself same as an ant, a dog, trees,birds..etc all lifes,feel them,embrace them,feed them,protect them,...till then just stuck with ur juggling words.Hahaha...pls,dont spit out something you dont know.
"toothpaste.." ... spot on.
"the entire country is a slum" OMG i died XD It's like a whack on the face for people who are cool with living in such a place.
Sadguru's sense of humour is d best. 👍👍👍
I'm new to English era. I'm learing lots of vocabulary from gurus precious speech
Fantastic answer, Sadhguruji
I'd like to add my two cents worth to the issue raised.
1. In my view, the difference between India and the rest of the world is that India is a historically spiritual country and still is, despite going into a materialistic tail spin. Other countries are evolving towards spirituality at different speeds. It's not too difficult to see this. Per capita, India has the greatest number of mystics, occultists, and spiritual aspirants of many different traditions. But I believe that Nature is now distributing spirituality more equitably across the world. Everybody knows about yoga and yogis, even the bushmen or the aborigine living in the forest. It won't be long before the spiritual wave knocks on every door awakening the masses.
2. The difference between spirituality and materialism is non-existent in reality. It's just being used for convenience. Spirituality is an attitude. If you apply a spiritual attitude to running, eating, working or to any other activity or object, that is spirituality in essence.
3. Science and the best minds in science are slowly coming around to close the gap between science and spirituality. Now, the latest hypothesis is that the vast physical universe looks more like a thought or a hologram. That was always the view of Indian spirituality, both of the Vedic and Tantric traditions.
1. I think the materialisic tail spin is mainly because of convenience as you stated in your comment. We have better standards and modern tools which people in ancient times didn't have. Same with our infrastructure and other features of modern society. So I think it's more about people being less poor rather than more materialistic.
And yes I agreee, people all over the world are trying to find a spiritual connection. It's needed. I see so many kids who are confused, depressed and without direction/purpose.
2. I fully agree.
3. Yes, it's quite fascinating how a completely materialistic approach to reality such as science still predict something similar to that of spiritual teachings.
Can't say about others but the 3rd point, whole Bigbang theory, Origin of time is Metaphysical, just an idea for today's science. Very much similar to what ancient Indian Vedic, Maharshis propagated in the form of Rituals and Astrology
Kids nowadays, just utterly unaware
Smart & witty answer. Quoting the history rightly but dedicating your life to welfare & upbringing of the poor & then driving a Ducati motorcycle & Merc Benz G63 wagon is a not exactly how you feel empathy for the poor
Everything applies very well here in Sri Lanka , thank you sadhu.
1:33 "Are we trying to prove something or are we trying to look at truth" Both, and not only to look at truth but to understand and accept truth.
Unless you transform that one Fool, 🤣we know who all! Sadhguru spontaneous wit sat nails!
best thing about Sadguru is he talks most of the times simple common-sense put in a fantastic way. And sometimes he speaks beyond common-sense. The problem with few individuals are who listen to him is that they fail to put things in a simpler way. Think rational. The more you argue, it is end of the day you banging your head against the wall. He being intellect. You being in a state of confusion. He (Sadguru) clear, sharp and focused.
We have here one teacher. There are students who score best and become toppers. And there going to be few who blame, college, school, teachers, and never can score good marks with the same system and same teachers. Oh yea disrespectful to the teachers. So cant help !
Thanku NALSAR students for asking annoying questions......although it's annoying for us Guru answers gracefully and we learn something
It seems like people are critical of Sadhguru , just for the sake of being critical, when there is no justification for it. When you take a look at the work Isha has accomplished over the years , it is amazing.
Anyone can have wealth. But there are very few who don't let wealth dominate their intellect.
Sadhguru always avoiding uncomfortable questions
I didn't hear him say PASS. Did you?
So nice and fantastic explanation. Sadhguru i love you.
Very good question. I m not against sadhguru but this question is correct. If u have to work 12 18 hrs u don't get enough time to follow these spiritual gurus. Once yr basic needs r sorted thn u look for other options. But if u r struggling to fulfill basic needs u wudnt even think about yoga, spiritual this and that. Btw I m wondering is it free to stay in Isha home?
Excellent approach to each and every aspect of life. You ask him anything and he has the PERFECT reply. Great :)
"I said whole country is a slum"... but if somebody else (foreigner) would have said that the nation would have harassed them on internet.... the problem is we cannot take criticism...
Money... Power... Followers... Luxury all this is possible by becoming a Yogi...
In earlier days great kings gave up everything and realised life is short trip but today's sages they are good preachers with different Intentions within them...
Sadhguru answered like a boss. Each answer was a tight slap on their cheeks
Whole nation is a slum....very brilliant
I think the first questioner could have been a lot more clear about his question, by just asking "how can spiritually be brought to those who have daily physical and economic needs to look after?" Or something along those lines.
That's why I want reborn in India. Please don't loose your culture.
Superb speech, Sadhguru.
India was amongst the richest nations but never the richest
I have no idea why people asking stupid questions instead become student and ask questions to gain knowledge.
THE ONLY CONSTANT IS CHANGE.
THINK ABOUT IT.
First time I felt bad with Sadguru's answer. He forgot horses & chariots...
The cost of inner engineering programs are very less. I have paid. Only 2500 rs. People will get 100% benefit from it. Their life will be changed. Swami Vivekanand says "Spiritual help is the biggest help".
If somebody gives us spiritual knowledge, if someone trains us in spiritual path, we should pay him lots of money because that's the biggest help we received in life. We should be grateful to him.
Isha programs are cheap and there are always people who are not serious during the teaching. Paying fees is a good practice.
With a Spiritual person possessing wealth, the society is assured that it is spent In the right direction
Some fools enjoy being fooled by a english speaking man .they are the one who like such videos ..
250 years ago India was in the hands of Mughals
He speaks nourishment and jumped into spirituality
Sir, can you please explain what are you doing for the poor
What the breathing techniques will do to the poor
What are you doing start from yourself
Then ask
Just typing on youtube is not good idea dear
You are not Barkha Datta
Contribute and then ask
@@whoisfreetv
Do you know what do and what I do not
Don't jump into assumption and just type on the UA-cam as you found some comments
I think you are Barkha
Here, you are doing the same what you are saying
Hmm... He answered the first question a bit too much like a western politician.
I may have misunderstood it but what the young man tried to say is 'how can we give the poor more time
for spirituality and less reason to worry about putting food on the table?'
Same problem as after the Sovjet fell, some very rich people were established some fell even deeper into poverty.
Well didn't he denied the existence of karma or God who distributes wealth? Real Guru is usually poor since he doesn't require money or earthly riches, right?
The question is about materialism right? or am I missing something here?
