Yogic Relief for PMS Mood Swings Sadhguru looks at the fundamental reason why so many women experience emotional turmoil during the biological process of menstruation. Article Apr 7, 2017 Q: I’m experiencing a lot of premenstrual emotional turmoil, and I’m wondering if there are any yogic remedies or practices that can help. Sadhguru: The menstrual cycles, which are physiological in nature, unfortunately cause many women a lot of psychological disturbances, due to lack of synchronization between these two aspects of who you are. There is also an elemental dimension to it. The five elements, which form the most fundamental geometry of the body, have to be in sync as well. Pancha Bhuta processes can ease these issues because they organize the elements within your system. There is nothing miraculous about it. The weird thing is actually that so many women are going through a normal biological process as if it was some abominable thing – simply because...

Getting Distracted? Just Get Involved!


Finding it hard to concentrate and avoid distraction? Sadhguru says, don’t try to focus, just get involved.

Are you feeling out of focus in life? Finding it hard to concentrate and avoid distraction? Sadhguru says, don’t try to focus, just get involved. Like a movie-goer captivated by the screen, anything in life can become fascinating simply by one’s involvement.
Q: Namaskaram Sadhguru. Every time I plan to do any work or start any work, I will be like, "Okay, I'm gonna do this, no distraction," but somehow I get distracted by food, movies, or whatever reason it is. How to be focused all the time? You say, "Simply sit," but I find it very hard.

Sadhguru: Simply sitting may not be in you right now. Do not try to concentrate and focus. It is not a pleasant experience. Just get involved. For example, when you are watching a movie, it is only a play of two-dimensional light and sound. Nothing so significant. But when you are really watching, it becomes larger than life. People love Rajinikanth more than they love their family. They have never seen the guy and he does not look like that, but he has become larger than life for them because of their involvement. All that happened was that they got involved. Because of this, though he is not a three-dimensional human being, he is just play of sound and light, people started loving him more than anything.

Something becomes fantastic not because it is. Everything is fantastic or nothing is fantastic in the universe. For instance, someone is looking at an atom. They spend their entire life looking at one silly atom. But because of their involvement, that single atom becomes so fantastic! So much life to see all around, but someone is looking through the microscope at one single atom, or a bacterium for that matter. Because of their involvement, bacteria become so fantastic.
Do not try to concentrate. Do not try to focus. If you bring involvement, something becomes fantastic in your experience. Then I do not have to tell you, "Be focused on it." The problem is how to get you out of it. Unfortunately, the world has become goal-oriented. They want mangoes, but they do not like the tree. It does not work like that. If you get involved with the tree and nourish it, mangoes will fall on your head anyway. You do not have to say, "Mangoes, please come. Be sweet, be sweet, be sweet." If you nourish the tree, mangoes will fall and they will be sweet. Similarly, focus and concentration are consequences of involvement. But people are trying to have the fruit without the tree, and it is freaking the hell out them. Trying to concentrate on something with which they are not involved is just killing people.

Sadhguru: The Tree That Bears Fruit Will Be Stoned

The Tree That Bears Fruit Will Be Stoned A common saying in the Tamil language warns that the tree that bears fruit will be stoned. Sadhguru responds, only when someone sees the value of the fruit and longs to taste its sweetness, will they take the effort to throw a stone. Article Mar 6, 2017 Q: There is a saying that the tree that bears the fruits will be stoned... Sadhguru: Oh, I know that better than anyone! They will keep throwing stones. If somebody has to take a stone and throw it at you, it takes lot of effort. They are throwing it at you because you are of some value. You are a valuable target! Who would throw a stone at someone who is not worth anything? Unknowingly, unconsciously, people know the fruit is valuable. So we have been stoned quite a bit. But over the years, many of those people have turned around. They are standing under the tree waiting for the fruit to fall into their mouth. That is always how it is. It is alright if people thr...

Sadhguru: The Two Ways to Open the Third Eye

The Two Ways to Open the Third Eye Sadhguru discusses the two ways of opening the third eye, and the pitfalls of trying to follow a “middle path”. Article Mar 3, 2017 Sadhguru: The most significant aspect of Shiva is that he opened his third eye. He did many other things – he danced, he meditated, he married twice. All that is fine, but it is only because he opened his third eye that we remember him even today. After thousands of years, we still bow down to him because there is no substitute for knowing. To know is to be free. And there is no way to know unless your perception is enhanced beyond its present limitations. Shiva is significant because he perceived what most human beings failed to perceive. What is unseen for a large segment of humanity became a normal part of his vision. That is what the third eye means. People say when Shiva opened his third eye, fire came out of it. This fire indicates that within himself, he burnt everything that he thoug...

Sadhguru: Samadhi – A Taste of “That Which is Not”.docx

Samadhi – A Taste of “That Which is Not” When one has crossed the boundary and tasted “that which is not,” Sadhguru says, this is called samadhi. Article Apr 3, 2017 Sadhguru: The existence is made of “that which is” and “that which is not”. “That which is” has form, shape, qualities, beauty. “That which is not” has none of these things, but it is free. Here and there, “that which is not” spurts into “that which is”. And as “that which is” becomes more conscious, it will long to become “that which is not”. Though one enjoys the form, qualities, attributes and beauty attached to it, the longing to get to a state of utter freedom of being is unavoidable and inevitable. It is just a question of time, and the bondage of time and space also is only the hallucination of “that which is”. “That which is not” neither perceives time nor space because it is boundless and eternal, not shackled by the limitations of time and space.  When this longing to become liberated...
