- Happy Guru Purnima 🙏🏽❤️👁
In this video, Satya Ji and I discuss the role of a Guru in one's life, and dive deep into what Guru truly means.
Satya Ji does not claim to be a Guru, in fact, he often insists to be seen as a friend - many find the light that shines through him to be a profoundly touching - but he asks to be seen as what he is. A human being and a lover of this mysterious life.
Satya Speaks ( meaning: Truth Speaks ) is an online space dedicated to blossoming human genius in the service of Life. We are not here to spread knowledge and philosophies - but to activate your live Wisdom.
Guided by Satya Ji, our mission is to support people in living with totality.
Satya Ji runs an online ashram, where he inspires and guides seekers by sharing his fresh insights & conducting live talks and workshops. It’s a rare & powerful live energy being shared. Please approach with care.

If you would like to join us as we grow - we can spread this wisdom together 😁🙏🏽
Thank you for reading

I heard Sadghuru had a fondness for exploring vegetable markets and haggling with stall holders just for laughs - he even met an enlightened shopkeeper one time and shared some stories. I like to think of Mother Earth as a giant vegetable market and if you're willing her intelligence will speak to you even amongst the coconuts and rockmelons, the pumpkins and mangoes...let's go shopping 😋
Sir your comment made me realised that im nothing .... will you elaborate further sir
I was in love with the idea of a Guru and as a westerner I looked at it through the lens of "savior" i guess from my Catholic upbringing and played the idea of "disciple" i had created in my head. In short, what an amazing disaster. In truth, I used it as an escape from standing in and taking responsibility for my life. At the same time, my prayers were sincere. There's much more to it but I needed that mind fuck and what came after it to finally wake me up to my own sovereignty and take responsibility and stop all outsourcing. I have zero regret. All of Life is my Guru and my self in truth and my sweet refuge is keeping with this through the sorrows and joys. An immense joy I am feeling listening to Satyaji these days after putting all my' practices' aside for a few years now and just being with life as it is and growing. Life only gives. Thank you Satyaji for being you.
Sadhguru ❤️
Grateful beyond words 🥲
The self is the guru, it’s cultivating that relationship, grounding, feeling and trusting. Nurturing this will grow the truth within in. ❤
My dearest friend always said that a guru finds you. 💖🙏💖
That is so true. I needed guidance in darkness but at a certain point i was confident enough to be the guide myself. When i realized i need to do it myself, everything was clear to me. But many don’t want to realize because it means you have to care for yourself when you are sad, angry, desperate, despressed, etc. And there is nobody that will do the work for you. But i mean i watched this video, i think maybe i still need a little bit of guidance haha
We have seen none of gurus are sharing..what experience it brings when you go through this life changing thoughts that keeps you going all through...
When you say are you ready for guru...?
It really sparks question..if at all gurus had it with them they would have brought greater peace..to oneness
"if you can live that death, you can experience this life" ...
That's the master stroke ❤
Many people want to relieve themselves of their responsibility, hence they look for someone to follow which is a dangerous trap for the egoic mind.
Dhyavad ke Alava koi words nahi mil rahe hay - khud mein vishwas badha ne laag raha hay aur us ek mein bhi 🙏❤
Treat your guru like a friend, and your friend, like a guru.
Bad advice
@@rajeevwarrier4210 Why?
@@neilwarren4573 The concept of a guru in many spiritual traditions, especially in Eastern philosophies, is that of a guide who leads a student or disciple on a path towards enlightenment or self-realization. The role of a guru is often seen as distinct from that of a friend for several reasons:
1. **Expertise and Authority**: A guru is typically someone who has attained a high level of spiritual knowledge and experience. They are seen as an authority figure who imparts wisdom and guidance, which may require a level of detachment and objectivity that might not be present in a friendship.
2. **Discipline and Rigor**: The relationship with a guru often involves a structured and disciplined approach to learning and personal growth. This might include specific teachings, practices, or rituals that a friend, who is more of an equal and less of a mentor, may not be able to provide.
3. **Unconditional Support vs. Challenging Growth**: Friends offer support, comfort, and companionship, which are important in life. However, a guru's role may also involve challenging the student in ways that friends typically do not, pushing them beyond their comfort zones to foster spiritual growth.
4. **Attachment and Detachment**: A guru-student relationship is ideally one of detachment, where the focus is on the teachings and the student's progress rather than on the personal relationship. In contrast, friendships can involve emotional attachments that might hinder the objectivity needed for spiritual guidance.
5. **Role Clarity**: Having clear roles can help in setting expectations and boundaries. When a friend assumes the role of a guru, it can lead to confusion and potential conflicts of interest, as the lines between personal and spiritual guidance become blurred.
It's important to note that these distinctions are based on traditional views and may vary depending on individual beliefs and the context of the relationship. Some people may find that a friend can also be a mentor or guide in certain aspects of life, including spirituality. However, traditionally, the roles of a friend and a guru are kept separate to maintain the integrity of the spiritual teaching process

When you are ready, the guru appears. When you are really ready, the guru disappears.
😂 Most people are not ready and have cheating mentality, that is when bogus Guru appears for them
@@ArjunaPandava 🤣 and then the mystery intensifies.
Wow. Yes. ❤
✨🙏🏻🌷🌷🙏🏻✨
🙏🙏
Thank you for sharing! 🙏
❤🙏🏻
Thank you Satyaji… there is so much truth
❤
This poem by Adyashanti sums up for me what a guru does. I keep coming back to this whenever I catch myself giving too importance to myself-
If you prefer smoke over fire
then get up now and leave.
For I do not intend to perfume
your mind's clothing
with more sooty knowledge.
No, I have something else in mind.
Today I hold a flame in my left hand
and a sword in my right.
There will be no damage control today.
For God is in a mood
to plunder your riches and
fling you nakedly
into such breathtaking poverty
that all that will be left of you
will be a tendency to shine.
So don't just sit around this flame
choking on your mind.
For this is no campfire song
to mindlessly mantra yourself to sleep with.
Jump now into the space
between thoughts
and exit this dream
before I burn the damn place down !
― Adyashanti

This is really good
🙏🏼
Namasthe Sri Satyaji🙏🏻💐
Gratitude ❤

happy guru poornima Satya ji❣
Dhanivad ji!
Thank You .... 🌞🌻🌟☺🙏
That was too powerful!!!
Thank you❤
Thanks!🙏🏾
God i love this guy!
This contextualisation is so important. Like a segue between where I’m at and how to experience what gurus such as Osho say.
True self realized yogi never speak and always remain in silence always, Ramana Maharishi always in silence
Om Namo Narayanaya 🙏
om namah shivaya ji
Great conversation to listen to
I found my guru.
Namaste 🙏
Thankyou ❤
So grateful to hear this conversation..Thank you
Thank you my brothers 🙏
11:11 so deep unfolding!
🙏🙏🙏🙏
I in the you
You got to chew
You never knew
What you want to do..
This is life
You need to learn
This is life
And you will learn
Break the rules
Burning the oil
I am the I rule the soil
This I in the you
You got to chew
Radhe , Radhe, such a wonderful conversation to listen to! You. BOTH by all appearances enjoy each other’s company! Very deep, dry deep conversation.❤🙏🙏🙏
Thank you!
Cleared all my doubts. Thank you, Satya Ji for providing such a unique perspective and thank you Sahasrajit for your clarity and your effort.
This talk was very helpful. Thank you so much for posting this video 🙏
I just really enjoyed this discussion! It gave me one more aspect of understanding the relationship between a Guru and Deciple. Thanks!
I found the one !
Upanishads say "the world is my guru". Also, in India we say "when chela is ready, guru appears"
AHAHAHAHAH this is beautiful! God is so dynamic! Truly how wonderful! This is nothing but Truth. What else can be said? In life many things happen, the most powerful of which is You. You happen. You are. Christ said “Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days.” See then? What is there to fear? For God is always here. “All power is within you; you can do anything and everything. Believe in that, do not believe that you are weak; do not believe that you are half-crazy lunatics, as most of us do nowadays. You can do anything and everything, without even the guidance of anyone. Stand up and express the divinity within you.” Yes, yes indeed Swami. I don't do anything. I literally do not do a thing. Awareness. Pure awareness. Om Tat Sat.
9:31, I have read it, heard it, but this version really hit me
I follow the guru of phenomenons he never lyes and he's not perishable
Your own consciousness is your guru that will lead you to Sadguru (the Absolute Supreme Reality)🙏🏽
When the student is ready- the teacher will appear.
When the student is REALLY ready the teacher will disappear 🙏🏽Om Shanti
Your shadow (mind/self) will only disappear when you turn to face the Sun. The light of your own consciousness never dies nor is it ever lost that it may be found.
Self realization puts the end to the seeking and seeker.
The ancient Egyptian saying goes as follows “Knowing they self is knowing God”
I am the earth (seed of your consciousness) and the tree is the God. God exists because I AM🙏🏽 what is not cannot affect what IS.
You are the context for the content of reality- worship your own consciousness with deliberate attention and it will lead you to the Truth. That which has no beginning and no ending- eternity is within you.
I'll be your friend any day

Oh, what a Profoundness. 😂
10:55
Tum sunne ki kala sikho
Sadhguru tum apne aap pehchan loge ♥️ OSHO
10:33 is it 'I' behind the 'I' or 'eye' behind the 'eye'?
It is :the 'I' behind the eye (Your own ego)
Anna has a linga seva shawl behind him
OSHO came to my life out of nowhere when I was on the edge.

A guru is non materialistic person who is very spiritual ;and non exist today!
Sadguru is basically all marketing
You seem to be business oriented, atleast in current state of mind
So it's obvious, for you everyone and everything is marketing, money & so on
True. He isn't even a 'shikshak' or 'pandit'. Even osho is an 'acharya'. Neither of sadhguru, Satyaji, or Osho is enlightened.
@@skang420 Why bother if they are enlightened or not really. Just take inspiration from their wisdom and move on.
@@user-xt9kd1dp8l I don't get any wisdom from them. Whatever they say I know already from being around India and reading books. A guru is interpersonal, unlike a shikshak giving lecture to masses.
you will worship him after he is gone !
Everything which shatters the ego is guru. Sometimes it comes as person or else as experiences or ultimately as death..
Rastafarians say, "I in I" when they refer to themselves.
हर गुरु दूसरे गुरु का directly या indirectly निरादर करेगा और यदि वो मजहब या Religion का हो तो हिंदू गुरु का direct निरादर करेगा। सच्चा गुरु ऐसा नहीं करेगा...
A real guru cant be seen.
A good joint will give you answers to all these questions 😂
