This time i salute the person who asked this important question
This time is no Joe
Very true ,that's the biggest current issue in our country among youths and teenagers
Did you got the answer
I'm going through same phase.... Once I was unbeatable.... Now I'm getting beaten by old myself
@@sharanyapaul3224 Its the biggest issue in the world, my friend. Current youngest generations.
"You are not suffering your life,You are only suffering the two greatest faculties of being human- vivid sense of memory and a fantastic sense of imagination." WOW
Amazing..
Yup, 😜
That's me😥
Enough likes?

"Do whatever the hell you want in your life, but you must be intensely focused on something!" -Sadhguru
Ok what is worthwhile? What is something?
Whatever you love
@@kylesapphire1820 exactly
@@anshulaggarwal001 I don’t know what I ‘love’ if I did maybe I’d know the answer to my question
@@kylesapphire1820 Just pick a problem in human race that can be solved and which would make life of many of them better. I don't think anything better can be done.
To anybody who's reading this, I pray that whatever is hurting you or whatever you are constantly stressing about gets better. May the dark thoughts, the overthinking, and the doubt exit your mind right now. May clarity replace confusion. May peace and calmness fill your life.
Same to u
Thank you dear and wish you the same
Likewise 🙏🙏
Very much needed for me right now..... 🙏🙏🙏
Thank u very much ❤️❤️❤️...same to you.....
" We are suffering our own intelligence " what a great statement it is....
Very true statement
I dont get it can you explain in easier terms ?
yeah
@@ziggyc4474 see from 05:50
I got it 😂😂😂😂
I am from Central Europe. Discovering Sadhguru here poured new hope in my life and my problems. Greetings to India and your ancient wisdom.
Wisdom is not national. It's neither Indian wisdom nor European. It's of the person who have it. 🙏🙏
@Jeff Tang Indian is the thing bro.
but u sound so much like a typical indian ,lol
Can u plz call our country with it's original name - BHARAT 😇?(India is a slavery name)
❤️
In summary, to overcome depression, take control of your mind. Get the abilities of memory and imagination to serve you rather than bring you misery. As a man thinketh, so is he
The Gray Wanderer - Find Your Bliss
I think this is getting there.. but I don’t think the “as a man thinketh” line is where Sadhguru or other spiritual teachers would say. It’s part of it but not the extent. The ultimate is beyond thought.. Reality as it is. Thoughts are limited to their own devices I.e concepts. Reality as it is, is beyond any kind of tangible concept
Yes but how
Yes but the how is finding something to invest your time in and always believing your life is precious otherwise you waste it
thanksimcured
Your thoughts create your reality, and your experience of it.
“Education is about everything but you!”
Wow ! This is why we suffer the pain of not knowing who we really are!
Yes... so sad. We have to ignore ourselves, it’s like drowning.
Except you
You really just believe anything, huh?
Dying to self/ego so you can live wholly
90 % of the people suffering their own intelligence is really true Sadhguru ji 🙏🙏🙏
Yes... knowing so much about the whole universe and all for just a cycle of same thing.
True....
Broken relationships (past) and future goals ( future/imaginations) make us suffer. This video was so empowering.
So live in present!!!!!!!!..thankyou
@@hercrazyworld_ Yup exactly! and don't worry, you haven't lost the spark. There is just need to focus that spark to right place.
@ivan arciniegas yes!

Hey can u please help me to gain weight
I am very skinny
@@HeatLure5324 idek much about gaining weight. But I know few times to gain them. Drink honey mixed in water. It also helps to gain weight. Try to eat food with carbohydrates and fat. Like milk etc.
Set small goals for yourself, once you achieve 1 set another one and another one, You will subconsciously start to get motivated for bigger things. IF you start out too big and you find it hard to achieve that big goal, you'll start to lose hope. The small goals show you can start something and achieve something therefore building confidence and in turn you will get your spark back.
Wonderful
I think my life just untangled itself in this 8 minute video.
I felt divineness after reading your comment
But only for a few moments
@@gauravkotwani6285 agreed
Come on dont lie to yourself 😂😂
word.
"Vivid sense of memory, Fantastic sense of Imagination." What a line.
Can you analyze it nore in depth please. Thank u in advance :)

As usual the take home message is brilliant. He always starts with a light hearted moment, builds his case via an example, becomes serious and delivers the take home message with a bang.
Iftikhar Kazi great to see my muslim brothers here
@@jaiminpatel2784 I am honored to hear talks of Sdhguru and hear about history too. Wished to see his aashram also.
erwefgdfgzsfz A muslim here is expressing his appreciation for Sadhguru and all you could think of was to make this absurd comment??? As long as people like you exist, there can be no harmony between the different religions.
Iftikhar Kazi you are incredible my friend
I am Muslim and I watch sadghuru everyday and night long live the wise
6:55 Good advice; do whatever the hell you want but whatever you do, be intensely focused.
That's funny...Because I see that as a big thing. Distraction is an easy mess to get tangled into.
But focus...I believe in what you focus on grows. Good and bad...So, feed the mind with...For me it's inner and outter knowledge.
@@shivastonestrange7121 i like your mindset, personally i dont see a difference in inner/outer knowledge because we perceive of the world through our bodies. idk what do you think
@@yourfriendlyturtle8771 Spot on yes. The mind is powerful still, and perception too
Never lose the "Eye of the Tiger"! To heck with booze and drugs! Live clean, strong and proud! Ultimate praise to Sadhguru! He makes a complicated world simple again with his unmatched wisdom and charm!
Hello my friend. I had no idea, until you notified me. Very nice of you to reach out. Best wishes!
Ok mxettdz,45770885444/
yeah .....same case
He never answers any question directly...
He explains everything around the question just wonderfully for everyone.. and gives a clear vision! 🙏🙏
Always Sadhguru's answer starts with a "SEE"😂😂😂😂😀😀😀
Isn't it so
See ya :)
And "we must understand this".
Sadhguru is sensible Yes or No, Hello!
' you must know'
I'm going to start adding "isn't it so" to everything I say.
Lol
Jingaa mbyaa we😂😂😂we kwendaa hauna manaa
How you say it in Spanish? isn't it so
@@patpat2456 in Spanish it would go something like this: ¿O no es asi?
Yes or no ?
I was depressed and typed : Not interest on anything. I found this video 💕💕💕✨Words can change the world. Thanks for the person who asked this question and Thanks a million to Sadhguru 🙏🙏🙏
“You are not suffering your life , you are only suffering the two greatest faculties of human being - Vivid sense of memory and a fantastic sense of imagination “ this one simple statement from Sadhguru changes the complete perspective towards life 🙏
The 'hello ' sahdguru says in the middle if his explaination is to awake your senses
I thought that’s what the Kit Kat ad in the middle was for
Hi from Canada. Sadhguru always cracks me up with his humour but still speaks with such wisdom. Amen.
"If your life is worthless, throw it somewhere"
On my way Sadguru, this is the motivation I wanted
*Everyone who reads this, we don't know each other and probably never will but I wish you all the best in life and all the luck in the world*
Thank you for your support!
Usually Sadhguru's answer starts with "You Must Understand" ;) . Jokes apart but this man is a blessing to India. The nation should use his wisdom.
Couldn't agree more sir
He is a blessing to us All
This may be my most favorite talk of his.
If we are intelligent enough to recognize our intelligence as a "problem", as an impediment to happiness, then we are also intelligent enough to recognize our intelligence as the very tool of bringing us closer to happiness and eliminating our suffering. So ultimately, it IS a choice which path to take. As Sadhguru so simply put it, "demotivation" is not an ailment. Hence not something others can help you with. It is something you have to chose to stop being.
Richness of memory. Imagination for the future. And discipline of faculty. I absolutely love how you explain about these three things.
I just forget about everything whenever I listen to him the term Guru truly deserves him .
I just realized I never looked forward to tomorrow.
No wonder I was always depressed as I had no motivation.
Thx to the Guru as It gave me a resolve
“Some people have nothing, but really have everything , some people think they have everything but really have nothing, you don’t need to have a destination to be on the right track & getting lost is part of the journey , it’s how you are on your path that’s important in my opinion 🙏🏿 ☮️
The most well behaved n well cultured students till now in Sadhguru's college youth&truth series. Amazing BHU!! ❤️
Whenever I feel low, I watch the speeches of Sadhguru and it refreshes me enough to start things with a new perspective again. I am so grateful that I took birth in a time where I lived in the same Earth with Sadhguru.
Thanks for the enlightenment sadhguru ji...
👏👏👏
I haven't lost my spark I just lost that energy which I used to feel in me and which helps me to enjoy my life...
Same here.
Same here
Previously what made me happy n satisfied eg cooking fr family now not make me happy anymore. Being compassionate I have stopped. It's painful to watch myself so demotivated
Is this a burnout, or need for a break from routine, change of scene maybe I can't decide
@@sharmilpradeep2363exactly same goes for me. Idk what to do
I hope you all are fine now as it's been a year but still if you are going through the same I suggest you to try and connect yourself with the nature
This one thing changed my life
Still sometimes I feel low but being in the nature gives you a sense of freedom and also gives confidence that you are not alone someone will always be there for you ,sometimes the someone is YOU😄
I am a fan of this Sadhguru. I like his universal approach.
As a follower of Baha'u'llah, a Baha'i, I seek not a guru, as the Revelation has dawned, but I remain a seeker and admirer of knowledge and wisdom, and in this regard, my personal respect for the Sadhguru is immense. Reflections of Light upon the mirrors of the pure hearts.
Much love and respect to all of you.
If you invest your life in something worthwhile, you'll be a FLAME rather than just a spark.. 🔥🔥😍
Love this message! Currently getting my masters and I am burnt out. However, I do not want to waste time unhappy. Will invest in myself while I am here
Same here
Same here
Once, when I was a child, I saw a PBS program about Yoga, and I felt my soul relax, as though I had come home... listening to Sadhguru is like that for me.
sadhguru I mean omg what to say.. he is just out of this planet, I have so much respect for him
Amreet Sran actually.... it’s more that he is in touch with reality , that to people like you who cannot realize that it isn’t so much that he isnt here , he’s living in the NOW and today’s society this concept seems bizarre but nonetheless to say, u can reach that level but u must be Clever lol
True, you must focus your attention on a worthwhile, meaningful direction in life. Wandering, heedlessness and Passivity will lead to suffering and despair.
I am a heedless wanderer & I have no idea how to find something worthwhile to me. How to?
@@azlztl same
Jordan Peterson says the same thing. Watch some of his stuff to get started. Very practical.
@@azlztl are you still wandering? Did you find your purpose after 2 yrs?
@@azlztl Start by doing small things that can improve your day/life, and when you're sitting around doing nothing, use that time to think about what you can do to better yourself. Eventually you will set bigger goals and find purpose. It's really all about momentum. Gain it and stay with it
Often times I feel like I have no purpose, I can't achieve anything, and I feel lazy and unmotivated because of the exams that determine my worth in this society, I used to be a creative and joyful personality but idk why I am constantly drowning in this world of extreme competitions and comparisons, I overthink to an extent that it becomes toxic for my mental health, but when I listen to Sadhguru I can feel the positivity and peace in his teachings, which forces me to let go of the past and work hard with focus and determination . Thanks a lot.
After watching this video, I turned into a flame from a spark🙏🙏🙏 Great Sadhguru ji..
2:40 genius. So true. No time for students to think about themselves and what they really want. All they must do is follow, and labour, really sad.
What's really sadenning is thinking about yourself too much. Labour is bliss.
Past, present, future explained. Intense focus is instantly motivating. Thank you
This is the perfect way to make everyone realise the true worth of time in life..🙏
Listened to this last night. Literally cause a shift in my life.
He always fills my cup with wisdom.
I'm always a flame. Thank you Sadhguru.
What are you investing your life in?
That's a rather personal question, but I'll answer. I'm investing my life in being happy and doing what I want without worrying about what others think. Without worrying about anything really.
May I know your secret formula to stay aflame?
Just practice gratitude. I had to go through decades of suffering to finally appreciate life. I hope you realize it sooner than I did... It's something you have to experience yourself. But gratitude is a start. Be aware and mindful of all the things that make you comfortable. Be grateful. Don't over think, just be the present moment. Keep watching Sadhguru, it might help you achieve inner peace. It's basically a choice. Just choose to be a flame and you will. Will power is your greatest tool. You shape your own reality. Become fearless, don't allow anything to affect you and don't identify with your thoughts. Just be impartial, let them flow. Focus on what makes you happy. Stop worrying about what others may think. Master this. The whole purpose of the universe is you and this moment, so enjoy it. Life is the perfect game, so play it.
Carlos Castanheiro: well said!
This man... !!!! Everytime I listen him I get spark!
Everyone should watch this video whenever they feel down..a beautiful message by Sadguru
Now I know..
1. I need to "Think and Remember"
2. Not let my two greatest abilities - "memory and Imagination" suffer and become a hopeless case.
3. Apparent Peace of mind leads to Rest In Peace (R.I.P)
4. Get out of college asap! :p
5. Have an intense focus on something.. use judiciously the basic ingredient of life, i.e. "Time".
So, now I'm on my way to being "Flame all the time!🔥".. Did you feel any spark yet?💥
really good one. I will try the same
I have a question, how do I find that "something worthwhile" on which I should give all my dedication and time too?...i just can't seem to do it and that again brings me hopelessness
Thank you Sadhguru for clarifying the meaning of being motivated in our precious lives!
We are suffering our own intelligence! What a way to put it... Our great capability became our biggest enemy... so True!
Wow...those words are pure gold . Helped me a lot to reevaluate my life choices and the way I could focus on things. Thank you guruji 🙏
I was so depressed few mins ago like always since 2k19 ; now it seems like I have got my way to think again before I take steps n not give up on what I had chosen to do. TQ Sir! for sharing ur wisdom n knowledge upon us. May God bless u!
Best meditation in morning time to listen Sadhguru videos! Made my everyday!
"Intensely focused on something" Thank you for sharing. =)
It is the identity which we're trying to maintain which has lost its spark, not the Being itself. And as far as I know, this identity is a made up thing, losing the spark is just trying to get real, I don't think we should be more motivated to get back to illusion.
It's so sad that the most empathetic line in this video for me was: "my brain is my enemy"
yeah but i think its actually a good thing. everyone has to first acknowledge where they are to begin feeling happier. if you became aware of something new then build on that from a higher state of consciousness so when you slip back into autopilot you can stick to what you previous set out for yourself
Well, I believe there was no reason for anyone to dislike this video.. its the ultimate truth that we are either ignorant of or are escaping from ..
Wow! Suffering from own abilities not disabilities..this line 🙌
Oh my god! This is on point answer. Many give examples and not tell us the root cause and the solution to it. The words spoken are really true
I found something profound thanks to Sadguru and person who uploaded this 🙏🏼
Thank you, Sir!! Yes, exactly, we are suffering our own intelligence. I chanced upon this video of Sadhguru while browsing through Viktor E Frankl's Logotherapy concepts. While Frankl is commending the search for meaning in one's life, Sadhguru is asking us to stay "balanced" and not run for meaning but only exist. Bhagavada Gita's teachings that keep working but do not expect fruit of action are in line with Sadhguru's teachings. Not everyone of us is built for "greatness" as society defines it but "humility" and "peace" and mere "existentialism" may often work wonders. Yes, indeed, we are suffering our own intelligence and competitiveness. I have come to a point in my life where if I merely exist, it would suffice. A lot of people tell me that you have done enough but I never used to take that comment to heart. Time to accept that I have done enough inspite of and against all odds and now merely "exist".
Every time i have problems or something i listen to sandhguru, and the one thing i realised every time i watched his videos is that we tend to complicate life when in fact its a lot more simple than we think and imaginate. I hope one day i will achieve such a wisdom. Peace
How can someone be so profound all the time !!!!🙏🙏
Thank you and namaste Sadguru 🙏🙏
Discipline is extremely valuable. Using a mantra like OM or AUM is very good for the mind. Just repeating it mentally is very good for you.
How to use Om and by using it can we get rid or anxiety. I am suffering from it since childhood. Life is living hell:((((
Have you visited doctors about your anxiety?
@@topherming6565 no. And I can't go to the doctor
You can't go to the doctor because of financial or religious reason?
@@topherming6565 both
The Crowd is so nice , just watched this video after watching NALSAR law students video .
This is gold ! I woke up today to this video and I feel so uplifted and light. Thank you for sharing wisdom.
From someone who is watching these videos on the brink of doing something i can never recover from. your words are spot on. To the guru your a wise man who has been through much and i have the utmost respect for you even tho we have never spoken.
Truly unmatched wisdom n charm..sadguru
Joy to watch him and his tummy giggle 😂😂! What a Spiritual Legend tho!
Harish Purushotham I ♥️ watching his jiggle when he laughs! To me, jiggle giggles always mean an authentic sense of joy! Not sure why🥰
Well spoken..."If this life is precious to you,invest in something worthwhile "
Sadhguru’s wisdom is unimaginable.
Pure logic and reason and an unbiased perception of the world..
Respect 🙏🏻
just great advice. stay focus , invest in yourself.. simple...
"Not just spark. You'll be a flame all the time!!"
Just opening truth. Simple thing. Great job.
He always looks at a broader perspective and answers the questions very clearly.
I know that you will not read ir, Sadhguru, but nevertheless I can say that YOUR WORDS DEEPLY CHANGED MY LIFE. If someday I got the means to see you personally I will be in my best moment of this life. Love from Recife, Brazil.
I was feeling so depressed and suddenly this video oh my god sadhguru is god, I am feeling so happy and energetic.🙏🏼🙏🏼
This young man will remember this for a lifetime.... I will.
Such an simplified answer which is the ultimate truth.
Thank you Sadhguru sir for helping me to change my focus in life and be atleast somewhat better than what am today.....
Lots of love and respect for you sir
feeling blank now, good thing to see and hear this 💜
I have asked this same exact question in a prior comment long ago...I'm glad it got answered. Although I'm in even more doubt than before
Discipline is the most important thing to make life easy and beautiful that's so true 😌
This is incredible, can't stop watching all the videos, thank you Sadhguru ji for sharing your knowledge with us, it is soo precious ,to be able to understand your perspective which is so accurate, to live life in the best way possible.
Speechless to listen to these words of wisdom ♥️
Greetings & Blessings from the USA/Michigan..you have helped me beyond measure thank you
Hello woman
How are you doing today
Okay
Best line - We are suffering our own intelligence !! WOW
Nothing but genius. Indians are so gifted to have this genius with them.
Yes the mind can be ur deadliest enemy. I can relate.
Difficulty determining how to invest most of my time. Appreciate Sadhgurur
I wish that this should be taught in schools. Many people in my age are so vulnerable to anxieties and depression. I wish they'll come up to Sadghuru's channel and listen what makes life valuable.
Sadhguru is connected to life like no other. I would like to meet him at least once in my lifetime
This actually helped...thank you...I understand and therefore I can address my concerns
difference between JNU student's questions and BHU student's questions.
There was no problem with JNU students as well. If students from JNU and bhu ask questions of same kind, there would be lack of discussion on various topics.

In this tough time of Lockdown and Quarantine! I really feel very grateful to this man who asked this question and to the one and only Sadhguru! Thanks for this Great Advice.
