Yoga Meditation Sadhguru
Is something missing in your life?
Namaskaram
Have you felt a certain incompleteness within you?
Despite having all kinds of comforts and conveniences in life.
Everything seems to be okay externally but internally we are not satisfied.
Home, work, friends, entertainment, shopping - all these things are there in life but still somewhere within we are seeking something more, we are longing for something more.
In the pursuit to quench this thirst, you might have tried various things but nothing has worked really.
Then what is the way out?
Let us understand this aspect from Sadhguru.
“Meditation means to go beyond the limitations of the physical body and the mind.
Only when you transcend the limited perspective of the body and mind do you have a complete dimension of life within you.
When you are identified as the body, your whole perspective of life will be about survival.
When you are identified as the mind, your whole perspective is enslaved to the social, religious and family perspective.
You cannot look beyond that.
Only when you become free from the modifications of your own mind will you know the dimension of the beyond.
This body and this mind are not yours.
They are something that you have accumulated over a period of time.
Your body is just a heap of food you have eaten.
Your mind is just a heap of impressions you have gathered from the outside.
What you have accumulated is your property.
Like you have a home and a bank balance, you have a body and a mind.
A good bank balance, a good body and a good mind are needed to live a good life, but they are not sufficient.
No human being will ever be fulfilled by these things.
They will only make life comfortable and conducive.
If you look at us as a generation, never before could another generation even dream of the kinds of conveniences and comforts we have.
But we cannot claim we are the most joyful or loving generation on the planet.
Your instruments of the body and mind are okay for survival, but they will not fulfill you because the quality of a human being is to seek something more.
If you do not know who you are, are you capable of knowing what the world is?
You can experience the true quality of who you are only if you transcend the limitations of your body and mind.
Yoga and meditation are scientific tools towards this.
Unless you go beyond the limitations of the body and mind, your life will not be fulfilled with just eating, sleeping, reproducing and dying.
All those things are needed in your life, but our life is not complete even if you have fulfilled all these things.
This is because the quality of a human being has crossed a certain boundary of awareness.
It has to seek something more, otherwise it will never be satisfied.
It has to become unlimited – and meditation is a way of moving into the unlimited dimension of who you are.”
