In this video what we're going to do is we are going to determine what the volt drop will be across this break in the line. In a previous video we talked about how to determine the voltage across the break in the neutral but this time we're going to switch things up a bit and we're going to break one of the lines here. Now it's a very similar process we're going to walk through it step-by-step so don't worry but it's all about redrawing this circuit and determining what full drops are across all these resistors and then we're going to hop in a car and take a drive and drop guys off and pick guys up. So let's take a step here. Now this guy here we have this line broken which basically means that this battery is ineffective at this point. So let's redraw the circuit. Let's get rid of this battery and start redrawing the circuit so we can start dealing with things that we know. There we go. It looks a little better. We got rid of that battery. So now we're dealing with ourselves a parallel circuit. Now let's take a quick look at this. I've got a 120 volt battery here. Current is going to flow across this 5 ohm resistor which means that this 5 ohm resistor will see 120 volts. That circuit remains unbroken. However when I look over on these three guys I have a path where I can go through the 3 ohm resistor and down through the 10 and back to my positive. At the same time I can also go through the 2 ohm resistor and through the 10 and back to my positive terminal. So let's redraw this so it looks a little more easier to deal with. Okay here we are. There's the circuit that we had before. Put it off in the corner here and now we're going to redraw it. So this guy here this 5 ohm resistor for 120. There it is. 5 ohm resistance of 120. The 3 ohms going with the 10 is right here the 3 ohms going with the 10 but then also at the same time we have the 2 ohms which also is in series with that 10. So these two the 3 and the 2 are in parallel with each other but both of them are in series with the 10 ohm resistor. So let's put it off in the corner here. Here we go and what we're going to do is we've got this guy we're going to basically ignore because nothing happened to him. 120 volts is 120 volts he's happy nothing changed with this guy. However these guys here things got a little funky. So what we're going to do is we're going to focus on this branch. I have a 3 ohm resistor and a 2 ohm resistor in parallel with each other in series with the 10 ohm resistor. Let's crush these two guys together and turn them into one resistor. Sorry what I meant to say was we'll get into one branch. So what I've done here is I've taken these guys here and I've turned it into one branch. The 3 ohm resistor and the 2 ohm resistor in parallel in series with the 10 ohm resistor. Now we're going to crush the 3 ohm resistor and the 2 ohm resistor and see what happens with that. 1 over 3 plus 1 over 2 gives me 1 over 1.2 ohms. These two guys here squished together that guy gives me 1.2 ohms. Again in series with the 10 ohm resistor. So now we're going to add the 1.2 ohms with the 10 ohms to get a total branch resistance of 11.2 ohms. And what we're going to do here is we've got 120 volts and 11.2 ohms on this branch here. 120 divided by 11.2 ohms is going to give me the branch circuit current because then we're going to start working our way back just like we do in every other combination series parallel circuit. Let's do that. 120 volts divided by 11.2 ohms gives us a current of 10.7 amps. So we know that we now have 10.7 amps flowing through this branch. 10.7 amps times this resistance will give us this voltage. 10.7 amps times 10 ohms here will give us this voltage. That works out to be 12.84 volts across the 1.2 ohms resistor and 107 volts across the 10 ohm resistor. Now remember this 1.2 ohms here this guy is actually these two guys crushed together. When voltages are in parallel what happens they are the same. 12.84 volts means that this guy will have 12.84 volts and this guy will have 12.84 volts and we've already determined that this resistor here it has 107 volts. So now that we've got these guys all lined up we can start putting them back into the circuit that we had before. This resistor is 12.84 this resistor is 12.84 this resistor is 107 volts this guy here nothing happened to him remember he was happy he's 120 volts. You're starting to see my process here we are stretching it back out so we're starting to put these voltages where they belong and we're getting close to the original circuit that we had. Both these voltages are 12.84 volts because they're in parallel this guy is 107 volts this is 120 volts let's put all those voltages over onto that guy there. Okay we've got all the voltages moved over there the only thing we have to do now is add that battery back in and we can start determining what the volt drop will be across that break. Alright here we go stretched it all the way back out we have 107 volts on the 10 ohm resistor 120 ohms sorry 120 volts on the 5 ohm resistor 12.84 volts on the 3 ohm we're getting close to the end here. Now the key to determining the volt drop across this break here is to figure out what the actual polarity across all these loads is going to be the negative to positive. Alright so here if I look at this guy I've got the current flowing this way negative to positive so this is going to be negative this is going to be positive. Now back when this line was fine this was going to be negative and positive this was going to be negative and positive. However here's the trick with this one watch for this this line is broken we no longer have this battery current is no longer flowing from this point to this point current is going to flow from this point through there down through here and back or through here up through there down and back the polarity across these two guys has changed it's become opposite of what it was before so now we have a negative and a positive on here and now we have a negative and a positive negative and a positive negative and a positive. Let's get those polarities drawn in because that is so very very important when we're determining what this volt drop is. Okay I've got the polarities drawn in here again flowing from negative to positive then flowing from negative to positive and negative to positive at the same time negative to positive through negative to positive. Now we've got enough information that we could determine the volt drop across this break here so let's figure that out I'm going to start on whenever we determine the volt drop across a break we start on one side of the break and we try to get ourselves to the other side of the break so let's start right here I'm going to start just a few ways we can go about it let's start the easy way first I'm kind of feeling lazy right now so let's go with the quickest route possible I go here and I drop 120 volts I say a drop because this is a negative terminal this is a positive terminal so I drop off or I have negative 120 volts I go this way and I have negative 12.84 volts so by the time I go from this point to this point I have negative 132.84 volts across this break here so that's one way to go now we can take the long road the scenic route I drop off 120 volts then I drop off another 120 volts so I've now dropped off 240 volts I go ticker ticker ticker ticker ticker ticker and you see I've got a positive here so so far I've dropped off 240 volts but now I'm going to pick up 107 volts and I drive all the way to there and I end up with 133 which is basically as close almost exactly the same as 132.84 it's just all in the rounding so again I've dropped off 120 I drop off 120 I move along there but I pick up because of this positive I pick up 107 and I get 133 if I took the short route I drop off 120 and I drop off three sorry 12.84 close enough to 133 that is how we determine our volt drop across the break it doesn't need to be that difficult so remember all you have to do is figure out break this guy down this whole thing down into a different circuit redraw it out figure out your volt drops across each of them then like I said polarity is key determine your polarities and then just go for your drive you drop off you drop off you drop off you drop off you pick up and it all is because I've got those polarities drawn in that I can see how that works that is how you determine the volt drop across a break in a 3-wire circuit


Hello, in this video we are going to style lights, specifically we are going to style rivers. In the previous video we have digitized the rivers already. Go to the layer styling panel, choose simple line and change the color. We can change colors with RGB values for red, green and blue. 0, 0, 0 is black, 2, 5, 5, 2, 5, 5, 2, 5, 5 is white, equal values in between our gray scale but here we choose combination of values to have a nice blue color for our rivers. Let's also make the stroke width a bit thicker, so now we see nicely our river symbol. Comes clear if I switch off the top graphical map. Let's add some labels. We switch to single labels and now we see the main printed there but that doesn't yet look very nice. So let's tune this to curved. Now the label will follow the curve of the line. Let's also use a text buffer, previously we have used a white buffer but we can also pick background color and create a more subtle buffer. So pick sample color and sample a clear background color. Now we change the color of the font and let's use here combination 31, 38, 118. Let's change the font to Calibri, increase it a bit and make it italic. Here we see nicely the name of the river. Note that the units of labels determine if it is scalable with the map or if it's a fixed size. So in this video you've learned how to style lines and add labels.


Hey, I said Namaskaram, why this youth and truth and how it came about. In the last 36 years that I've been active with people, this is one question that keeps coming to me constantly. It's a constant refrain from people. Many many thousands of people telling me this, Sadhguru, when I was twenty, where were you? Now you come when I'm sixty. If you had come when I was twenty, I would have done this, I would have done that. So I thought we will step out and meet all those people who are below twenty-five years of age. And that's why the youth and truth, so that… so that you don't come back to me after a few years and again accuse me of the same thing, where were you? Life, when we say life, different people think of it in different ways. But essentially, a certain amount of time and a certain amount of energy is what makes our life. Time is going away for all of us at the same pace. If you sit, it rolls. If you stand, it rolls. If you're doing something, it rolls. If you're sleeping, it rolls. No matter what you do or you do not do. Time is rolling away for all of us at the same pace. Or in other words, time is getting over. Hello? It's getting over, isn't it?  One may not look at it that way because most people think they're immortal. Yes. They go about their life like they're immortal but actually time is getting over. In southern India, for example in Tamil, the word for death is kalamaitanga. That means his time got over. Actually that's all that happened, isn't it? Hello? His time got over, that's all. So time is rolling away but life is also set an amount of energy.  How much energy do you have, how well-organized and managed is it, will determine what you will do and what you will not do, the scale and scope of your life is determined by this. When you're in this segment of life, which we refer to as youth, your energies are at their peak. It's a most exuberant level of energy in this segment of life that we refer to as youth. Most youth do not understand this. They think it is going to be like this for always. It is not going to be like this for always. You must just pay attention to the older people. You will see energies are not at the same level of exuberance. I am an exception, okay? So at this time, when our energies are at their best, if we bring little more clarity and balance into our life, the way we utilize and organize this energy will become completely different. The problem with the youth is they are an exuberant energy, but not enough clarity and balance. Where there is no clarity and balance, even if you have the most powerful thing in your hands, if you do not have the necessary clarity and balance, it could just work against you rather than for you. So this is the purpose of youth and truth. Now this campaign for a month, but we will not stop with this. In the next two or three months, we will roll out what is called as tools for transformation. This will be available on the app and in various other platforms. We want the youth of this country to make use of this because this is the only wealth we have right now. Wealth means right now we have a huge youthful population over fifty percent. No other nation has this, but youth is a tremendous wealth. Only if they are inspired, skilled, focused and balanced. If they are imbalanced, uninspired, unfocused, unskilled, they are a recipe for disaster.  So are we going to make this youthful energy in this country into a miraculous process which we can, or are we going to make it into a disaster, is in our hands. It's for us to make this happen. We as a generation of people, never before another generation has known these kind of comforts, conveniences and possibilities and our ability to communicate today we can sit here and talk to the entire world. So this is our time on the planet. This is our time on the planet. We are not going to be here forever, but this is our time on the planet. We have all the ingredients that if we have bring clarity and balance into our lives, we can become the greatest generation ever. We have the tools in our hand, but will we use the tools to create this? Or will we use all these technologies and tools to destroy ourselves? And so on, what kind of human beings we produce, particularly youth? Because they are going to be here longer than me and many others here. Because you're going to occupy this planet longer than me. So we wanted to see that you, if possible, we bring some clarity and balance into your life so that this youthful exuberance becomes a great gift for this nation and the world. Thank you, Sadhguru, for that youth and truth introduction. But before starting the questions, I would like to thank you all for giving this a tremendous response to the youth and truth event in VHU. And I would like to thank you all as well as thanks to all those people, sir, outside also more than 500 people are sitting watching this live telecast. So thanks to them also, they were not able to get the seed inside. So thanks to all of them. So getting on to the cross-question, sir. When I try to see myself as a youth and when I try to see myself as a bachelor's in university, then one feeling that hurts me the most is the unemployment one. And whatever the thing is, in the final year, I'm not seeking about how many marks I should get in the semester, but should I get the job? That is the most important thing. And then somehow I saw you. I saw your job also very interesting. You can apply.  No, Anaconda.  That was just a king cobra, that was not anaconda. You drive. You drive everything. So it… it gives me a very much interesting. I am also afraid of that king cobra, sir, but I won't do it. You are saying you are from the town of Shiva, he wore a snake always around his neck. And what? Sir, okay, but that is a good point, ultimately. So, then I will check it out. So, for me, how I should become like you, cool dude like that? You can apply for the job. We will process the application, of course. See, we must understand this, in this country, in 1990, only seven percent of India was employed. Ninety-three percent was self-employed. All kinds of small, small businesses and things, because there was really no organized employment. Now I do not know the exact number, maybe it's gone to fifteen percent or twenty percent, maybe. So still over eighty percent of the people are self-employed. We are talking this employment business. Already I am in lot of trouble on the social media because of… I spoke about employment in the IIM Bangalore and these are all, you know, business masters people. They are doing MBAs. And they are asking about employment. I said in a developed… in a developing country, you shouldn't be looking for employment. A developing country means there are still lot of things to be done in this country. When there are so many things to be done, instead of looking around and seeing as youth, what can I do and how can I make something out of that? You are sitting and waiting for somebody to come and give you an employment. Well, this language of what is the employment rate in the country comes from United States because almost everybody is employed except a small segment of entrepreneurs. So that's a different nation. This is a different nation. Here there is no organized employment of that scale. You cannot employ 1.3 billion people in a factory or an office or wherever else. They have to find their way. And they are finding their way. The rural population is not employed. It's only the urban youth, the moment they get educated, somehow they get crippled. Those who are not educated are finding a way to live, isn't it? Hello? Those who never went to the college, university, they're all finding a way to make a living. But the moment you get educated, should you be more capable or less capable? You should be more capable. So you should give the employment to them and you should become the employer. Yes? Tell me if you look around in Kashi, aren't there a thousand things that you can see on the street that you can take up and do and make a business out of it? Can you or can you not? There are. So I'm not saying there should be no employment generation. Yes, that needs to happen on one level. But don't ever believe 1.3 billion people can be employed in a factory or office or some organized sector. It's just not possible. We don't have that level of organized employment generation and it's just not possible at all. It is just that we have to see in a developing country how we can develop this country, every one of us. If you can't do it by yourself, ten of you should get together and do it. But right now the problem is ten of you cannot get together. Two people can't get together. Let's change this. If ten of you students get together, you think you can't start something and run successfully? Can you or not? You can.  But you want to go into a company where there are a million people working together. This is unrealistic. So this is going to be super unpopular video, I know. A whole lot of people, a whole lot of people, I'm on camera. A whole lot of people are going to scream at me, oh, he's this, he's that. He doesn't know what is employment. Oh, become a guru. Well, try. Why don't you try? You can try that also. That is also useful. Apply to be a mystic, that you don't have to apply. Anyway, it happens. Now you didn't get the problem. There is something called as mystic and a mystic. In front of you, there might be certain mystics. But I am totally into mystic. What do you say? Probably not mystic. Okay, moving on. Sadhguru, like you said that we need to clap together and find new ways to empower people. And basically it highlights on us being ambitious. So I am a very ambitious woman, I think. And I have a whole lot of… You have only thirty-two teeth to attend to. That's not very ambitious. No, but that's not it. Do you think that I am a dentist and that is it? No, there's more to life. And that only you have professed in one of your videos. So I want to ask that, yes, I am very ambitious. I have a whole lot of bucket list or things that I want to do and I want to achieve. Bucket list is something that you do after you are seventy, yeah? Before you keep the bucket. It's long, I can't wait, I get seventy. Anyways, but…  Bucket list means dying is considered kicking the bucket.  Some things that you have not fulfilled. For a young woman, no bucket list, okay? A list full of dreams, I would call it. But for each dream, for girls in this country, there is a price to pay. There is a certain way in which society wants us. There are unsaid rules obviously. Like you behave in a manner and or you keep your heads down or don't speak much, all of that. So… Don't speak much is a good idea. It's not a bad advice for anybody. You are in Shiva degree. Okay, so to follow my dreams sometimes I need to break some rules. Or I… But I don't want to do it at cost of being dishonoured or disrespect to my parents or my loved ones. I want to know how do I be a obedient daughter, but at the same time an independent woman who lives her life on her own rules. See, we want to do something that we want to do. And we want to do it with everybody's approval. And then we don't want to pay any price for it. Life doesn't work like that. When we do something that we really want to do, there is a price attached to it. Because the nature of life is like that. If you do a certain thing, there is a price to pay. There is tax for that. What is the level of tax depends on how revolutionary is your idea. So, this is very unrealistic that people are always thinking, I want to do this, that but my father.  Beyond that don't complain. What is your father doing? He's doing what he knows best. Hello? Yes or no? What he knows best he is doing. If you want to know, if you believe that you know something better than him, first thing is you must be able to convince him. But he is not able to grasp it. He will not be convinced. Then how badly you want to do what you want to do, you must see whether it's worth going beyond these lines.  Now you want to say, I will do what I want, but there should be no price. There is no such life anywhere, not here, not anywhere. Sadhguru, what opportunity it is that we have a yogi among us in the city of the Adiyogi. I relate my question to this, that we all know for sure that we'll be benefited that you are here. But do we have some special benefit of being in the city of Lord Shiva? I mean, I do not experience it. Are we being benefited directly or indirectly? I will need a few minutes for this, okay? As all of you already know probably, the word Kashi means a tower of light. When we use the word light, we use the word light for many things in human life, simply because of the nature of our visual apparatus. You have a sense of hearing, sense of smell, sense of taste, sense of touch and you have sense of sight. Among all these five things, in the human being, the sense of sight is the most powerful one.   He finds his food that way, he finds it made that way, that's how he finds his way, wherever he wants to go. For him, sense of smell is dominant. But for a human being, sense of sight is so dominant that our sense of sight functions best when there is light. So whenever we see something, we say it's light. When we see something new, we say a new light has come. No new light has come, we're just seeing better. Because we're seeing better, we refer to that as light. So in that context, this is a tower of light. This means they built a machine. I'm calling this a machine because you're in the university. Essentially it's called a yantra. The word yantra today also in English translates as a machine. Why do we build a machine? See, because we are able to walk, we came up with a bicycle. When we got tired of walking, we came up with a bicycle. Why? Because we are able to locomot, but now we want our locomotion to be far more effective. So we came up with a bicycle, then we powered it, it became a motorcycle, then it became an airplane, then it became many, many things. But suppose you were made like a tree, rooted to one place, would you have thought up a bicycle? Would you? No. Now that we can speak, we have a microphone, we have a telephone, we have all kinds of phones. Now that we can see, we have a periscope, microscope, telescope, all kinds of scopes. Every machine that we have created is only an extension of the existing faculties that we already have. We have not come up with any machine which does something totally different from what we are able to do. It only extends our ability because we cannot create a machine which does something different because we don't know what the difference is. We have no way of exploring something beyond our existing faculties, isn't it? We can only extend our faculties, we cannot create a new faculty as such. So, we built various kinds of yantras. As we built bicycles, motorcycles, microphones, microscopes and various things, we built other kinds of machines which were essentially energy machines. Because we understood where there is a physical machine, there will be friction, there will be a lifespan, there will be maintenance and various other aspects. So, we built machines which are pure energy machines, giving it a form by giving a physical foundation to it. Small machines, big machines, all kinds of things were built for specific purposes. This is what you call as a deity in this country. In this country, I want you to listen to me carefully, not react to this simply. We are a godless culture. We don't have the god anywhere. All the people whom you worship or people who walk this geography at some time, isn't it so? We worship them, not because they dropped from the sky, not because they flew in the air, not because they walked upon the water. No, we worship them because they exhibited an extraordinary sense of freedom. No matter what life did to them, they remain free from that. You look at their lives and see, their lives are not free from strife. Their lives are much more strife than your life, isn't it? Far more strife. Far more dramatic strife. Wars and tragedies and all kinds. In all this, they remained unmoved, balanced. Not becoming a reactive force, but continuing to be involved with life. They did not withdraw. Not did they become angry. They stayed there and did what they had to do, whatever they could do. Sometimes most of their activities ended up in failure, but the man is a victory because it never... what happened around him never determined who he is. This is why in this culture, we held freedom, liberation or mukti as the highest goal. God is not the goal. Mukti is the goal, moksha is the goal, isn't it? If you listen to the conversations of your mothers or maybe grandmothers, daily conversation never happened, not spiritual conversation. Daily conversation never happened without uttering words like karma, prarabdha, mukti, moksha. This was like everyday conversation, especially in the city. People came here just for that. Not looking for God, looking for freedom, isn't it? So they built this phenomenal machine, but the vagaries of time, invasions, ignorance, various things destroyed this machine or damaged this machine at various levels, but still it's a fantastic machine. It's not in its full flow, but still it is great and fantastic machine. And will anybody benefit from that in being in its umbrella? Of course they will, but we must understand this.  The same goes to everything, because whatever we are not conscious of in some way will not exist for us, isn't it? Hmm? Whatever we are not conscious of will not exist for us even if it's there in a very big presence. So are you benefiting from it? Definitely on one level, but are you taking full benefit of it? I don't think so. When I look at the people, the way they're moving around, they will see pilgrims coming like this with tears in their eyes, but these people are going like this about that little danda that they're doing. So you may not benefit fully from it unless you're conscious, because subtler aspects of life, especially will not come to you unless you consciously become receptive. So this is very important. Unfortunately people have started referring to Kashi as the Makka of the Hindus and all this stuff. This is not a Makka. This is you are not going there to seek God's grace or something else. You are coming here because this place represents mukti or liberation or freedom. The next question that we had is which was very common thing that the students are that is, I am a suffer in silence kind of a person because I believe that if I show my vulnerable side to the society, they might use it against me. So I carry a shield and go out to the world. So I want to ask if it is okay to show our emotions that that does make us weak or we can carry a shield and maybe suffer in ourselves for some time. No, you're asking this question as if suffering is very natural to you.  See, there is something called as pain and there is something called as suffering. If I put a pin into your body, there is pain. But whether you suffer that or not is your choice.  Have you seen this? Let's say you want to climb up the mountain or you want to swim across Ganga. Every muscle in the body may pain. But the moment you reach that side with this painful body, you are so joyful. Yes or no? So pain is not necessarily suffering. Pain need not translate into suffering. Pain is the natural process in the body. It's very good for you. Yes? Because if there was no pain in the body, most people would not know how to even preserve their physical bodies. See, wherever there is no pain, what all they have done to it, if there was no pain in your nose, in the name of fashion, you would have cut it in so many ways. If there was no pain at all in your body, you would walk on the street with your intestines in your hands. Yes, maybe on the stomach bag you could put Gucci. And go.  If there's no pain at all, wouldn't you have pulled it out? Come on. You would have done all kinds of things. It's only the pain which is keeping you. You're walking on the street, if a bicycle comes you step back. Do you believe it's because of humility? Consequence of pain, isn't it? If there was no pain, even if a truck came you would go like this. Lot of people are going like that in spite of the pain. The consequence of pain is the only thing which has allowed you to preserve your own body, isn't it? So I'm saying unfortunately, most human beings are in that state. If there was no pain, they would have cut themselves into pieces.  Yes, you've seen such imagery. So suffering is something that you do mentally. This is your choice. Either you can suffer or you need not suffer or you can enjoy the same thing. Many people are enjoying many painful things, isn't it? So you're talking about like all the time you're suffering, should I show it or not show it? Whether you show it or you don't show it is visible. If you're suffering, is it not visible on your face? You may pretend, but everybody knows.  All those people know that you're in suffering, isn't it so? They may just keep quiet because they don't want to intrude into your private suffering. And suffering is always a private hell. It's never public, please say. Because it happens within you. So why are we making ourselves into such a mess? Simply because we do not know or if I hear music I will learn. Most people after 30, 40, 50, 60 years of living here still have not figured out how to handle their thought and emotion. How unfortunate, when are they going to learn? After thousand years, people are pretending as if they have a ten-thousand-year lifespan. At fifty, if you don't know how to handle your thought and emotion, when are you going to learn, I'm asking. This is simply because they gave you a super, super sophisticated machine. Do you agree with me? This is the most sophisticated machine on the planet. Have you read the user's manual? No, that's all the problem is not suffering. Sir, Guru, last year in this month only, in the month of September, there was a very big movement, a student movement, particularly the girls came out demanding for some of their rights. And nowadays, in the last few years, we have seen a number of movements happening in different universities, different colleges. My question is that, do you think these movements, which are led by students particularly, are based on ideologies or are they just the reaction of something? Well, see, every human being would like some sense of justice and balance in the situations in which they exist. Whether it's home or university or street, you want some sense of equity in what's happening. Even within the home there is injustice. Many times we fight, isn't it? Hello? So the same thing in the university, the same thing on the street, same everywhere. But what we need to understand is, let's take family as a structure. There is a structure, something is being managed. Your parents are not experts in all kinds of justice systems and ideologies and everything. They're just doing what they know best. Yes? Out of their love and concern, they're doing what they know best. Is it always perfect? No, parents are never perfect, isn't it? Hello? They're never perfect, they're doing their best, what they know best. Maybe you as a young person think what they're doing is no good, maybe, but they're doing their best. If they're not doing their best, we can remind them.  Then I will not do my best if this happens, something or a more creative way of doing things is, when they don't do their best, you really do your best so that they will feel, oh, what am I doing? Yes? These are different ways to correct a situation. But there are certain people who think if a thorn gets into their foot, they believe you must cut off the leg. There are a lot of people like this. If a thorn got into your foot, what should you do? Carefully remove the thorn and walk on, isn't it? But right now there are many people, if thorn gets into the foot, they will claim, come on, let's amputate the leg, let's amputate the leg, campaign will start. Before we protest and deride somebody else, try to pull somebody else down, we must take little time and see. Suppose if I am in that place, if all these people are saying thousand different things, how would I manage? You must see this. Right now the people who are managing the situation are there some super human beings, they know how to do everything, they don't know. They are trying to do their best. If they are not doing their best, we can key them up a little bit. We should. We should remind them that they should do their best. But expecting a miraculous situation where thousand people in India, if there are three people, there are five opinions. All right? So we are such a country where for everything we have a question, even if so-called divine entities come, we just barrage of questions we throw at them. Yes or no? When Shiva comes, we throw questions. Krishna comes, we throw questions. Whoever comes, we throw thousands of questions. We are that kind of people. So naturally there will be many things. It's okay, we are that kind of people. But questioning something is one thing. Always trying to dismantle the existing structure is another thing. If you dismantle the existing structure, are you capable of creating a better structure? This is something you must consider. Right now the existing structure may be lousy. The existing structure may be utterly lousy. But the question is right now, are we competent, do we have the resource, do we have the time to create a better structure? This is something we must look at. The problem right now is we are going about busy judging everybody. The kind of judgments that we ourselves will not pass.  A lady went into the butcher's shop. You know all those chicken, they were all hanging there, dressed chicken. Somehow for some reason, feathers are the dress of the chicken.  They were colorfully dressed, but we pulled off everything, then we say they are dressed. So these dressed chicken were hanging there, dead of course. The lady went there and lifted one wing, wrinkled her nose, lifted one leg, wrinkled her nose. Like this she went from chicken to chicken, chicken to chicken. There were many other customers, they were all feeling uneasy because the way she is wrinkling her nose, maybe they are old, maybe it's getting rotten, they are all looking. The butcher saw that it's going to seriously affect his business this way. So he went and tapped her on the shoulder, she looked back, he asked, ma'am, would you pass a test like that? This is all you have to check. Would you pass a test like that? Sadguru Ji, when I started saying you are a cool dude and I saw you, I am following you from the last three to four years and you have been doing rally for rivers, youth and truth also is the idea that you have invented. Let's see if you hold it a little. Youth and truth idea that you have invented. A little volume for him, please. Youth and truth idea that you have invented and rally for rivers also. Sometimes I think that you have a lot of responsibilities for this. And I have seen your video, in one video you are saying that you are working for 16 to 18 hours a day because you are made to work because you need to work for this country. In one of the videos I saw it. A lot of responsibilities on you, sir. Lot of responsibility. All of it? All of it. That's a lot of responsibilities, sir. So either you can just transfer to some of them, to me also. But the thing is that... When you apply, we will consider. I will be applying by tomorrow, sir. So the thing is that... What I feel that sometimes or the other, there are certain few people who are taking the responsibility. But many times people are scared of the responsibilities, taking the responsibilities. You have taken the responsibilities for rivers, for others, for planting trees and other things. For you also. For me also. But there are certain times when the people are scared of responsibility. Does it taste good, like chicken? Or something else? See, responsibility. Does everybody hear that word clearly? Yes. Responsibility means, responsibility. Your ability to respond.  I'm asking you. Hello? Some of you are saying, no, why? If you have no resp... If you don't have the ability to respond, that is when you feel fearful, helpless. If you have retained the ability to respond, whatever can be done, you will do. In your life, if you do not do what you cannot do, no problem. But if you do not do what you can do, you're a disaster. I'm not a disaster. Everything that I can do, I will do. Will everything happen? Maybe not.  Okay, is that okay? When actually yesterday, 23rd of September, is 36 years since certain things happen within me and my life dramatically changed. I was going about my business, successful making money, everything good. But suddenly this experience hit me in such a big way, everything changed. It was on that little hill called Chamundi in Mysore. It was on 23rd of September, 1982. So, on this day I happened to be in Kashi, thanks to all of you for having me here. So when this happened, I'm just sitting there, doing nothing. Simply, every cell in my body is exploding with ecstasy. I thought, this is it. I've discovered something that if you don't do anything, you will be overflowing with ecstasy. There's really no problem. Then I made a plan. In two-and-a-half years time, at that time the human population was 5.6 billion people. So I made a plan, in two-and-a-half years time, I will make the entire population blissful, because I know the technology. You don't have to do anything. Simply, if you sit here not doing anything, everything will explode. See, 36 years, huh? I'm still talking to you, not it got new, okay? Maybe we've touched over 500 million people, but that's not my idea of the world. There are 7.6 billion people.  Successful failure, can be a good one for you. No, blissful failure. So... Now in your life, the choice is this, you can have one constipated desire, okay? My only ambition is I want to build one little house for myself.  My wish for all of you young people is, you must have that kind of a desire, which cannot be fulfilled in this life. If you take two steps in that direction, if your desire... if your desire for well-being includes everybody, if your desire is all-inclusive, most probably it will not happen before you die, isn't it? But you took a few steps in that direction. That's great. Instead of having a constipated desire and you had it fulfilled in next five years and you think you're on top of the world, what is the point of such a desire? So I'm wishing you failure. I want you to understand. But a blissful failure... because the only reason... the only reason you suffer responsibility is you're always afraid whether it'll happen or not happen. Why are you afraid of that?  Not how you are. First, let me ask you this fundamental question. You are referred to as a human being. Yes? Human being.  Yes? We call this one as human being. What it means is, this one knows how to be. They all exist in reaction to outside situations. But this one knows how to be. This is why we know how to respond, not react, how to respond. This is why this is a responsible creature. If you know how to be, would you keep yourself blissful or miserable? Blissful. If you're blissful, what is the consequence of your action? Would it really matter? You'll do your best. If it happens, it happens. If it doesn't happen, it doesn't happen. Hello? Yes.  Essentially because of fear, isn't it? But if you're really blissful by your own nature, you know how to be.  You know how to be. If you know how to be, does it matter how far your actions go or do not go? Our actions will depend on the times in which we exist, isn't it? People are, you know, like I was at the World Economic Forum and all these people usually coming and saying many things like this. One professor from the Harvard University comes up to me, oh, you're that amazing tree planter. I say, no, no, I'm not a tree planter. Then, no, no, you planted millions of trees. Yes, I planted but I'm not a tree planter. Then he asks, what do you do? I said, I make people flower. So why I planted trees is not because I'm a tree planter. Simply because, you know, one day it happened. Two men were working, government employees. One man was digging on the roadside. Behind him another man was coming and closing these pits and coming. Somebody else was passing by, they saw this ridiculous activity and they backed up and they came and said, hey, what are you doing here? This guy is digging, this guy is closing. What is this? They said, no, no, I'm doing my job, he's doing his job. The in-between person was a tree planter, he's missing because that tree planter has been on a leave for a long time, I stepped in, I'm not a tree planter. Nor am I a river saver, okay? Because that person is missing, I stepped in. Satguru, as we grow up, we are often told it is fed in our minds and childhood that life is a race. You need to keep running and be perfect. Oh!   That was the main advertisement that we put up in the bag. No, if life is a race, if life is a race, you must win it, isn't it? Winning it means what? You must get to the finish line today. Harishchandra Ghat. You can choose Manikarnika or Harishchandra Ghat. Which one is your choice? Hello? If it's a race, you must cross the finish line ahead of everybody else, isn't it?  Life is a race and it's a good point, but what we can say, we are taught like this only.  So what I feel is that giving certain tips of responsibility is I saw certain God men also in this country. I am saying literally God men, I am not saying any particular person. But I see, sometimes I see that there are many people who are strong in their ways, who are just giving the puja to the God man. Life creature is like a God man. So once I feel that why those people are doing a puja of him, but second time I thought how powerful and how intelligent that God man is, he is able to convince that I am a God. He is able to convince those people that I am a God. So that is also in intelligence. So is this a country where the people are so foolish that they are following just a person and not saying a word of foolish, but is there a following a person and treating him like a God or is that God man so intelligent that he is able to convince them?  But you are calling the whole tradition as foolish. No sir, the question… No, I will come, I will answer the question. See, this word God man is a media-invented word. There is nobody anywhere I have seen who claimed I am a God man. I have seen man and I have seen goddamn man. I have not seen a God man anywhere. Have you seen a God man anywhere? Hello anybody? No. Somebody is sitting there, somebody else. Right now, to Malviya ji, we garland him. Well, is he a God? No, he did something that we revere. He did something that we value. So we offer our respects to him by putting a mala. Oh, you put garland on him, so you made a deity of him. Yes, because the man did something in his life which we all benefit and value. So we bow down to him. So this… See, there is… there is logic of various levels. Don't think there's only one logic. There is rudimentary logic. There is little high above. There is very fine logic also. Now people who worship looking up, saying there is our God is up there, and that looks okay to you because first of all this whole uparwala business, first thing you… are you on a round planet? No? You sure? Okay. Planet is round and the thing is spinning all the time. If you look up, inevitably you are looking up in the wrong direction. You are not even on the north pole, you are in Kashi. You are like this looking up in the wrong direction all the time, all 360 degrees. So do you know in this cosmos which side is up? Is it marked somewhere this side up? No. So you don't even know which side is up, but you know who is up.  So in this culture we thought you that. Today this modern science also, I want you to understand this. Whether you take an atom or a cosmos or the cosmos, over 99.999 whatever number of nines is actually empty, only little bit material in the atom. You know this? What is your subject? I'm sorry? Law. Oh! You could argue for all the wrong things. That is what I was reading. It… anyway, this is science. Over 99 percent, 99.9 some eleven times or fourteen times something, I don't know the exact number, that much of the atom is empty space. Only little bit is material, tiny minuscule. In the minuscule it's minuscule. The same is true with the cosmos also has similar proportions. Over 99 percent is empty space. Only specks of stars and planets and galaxies, only small specks. Rest is all empty space. But this empty space seems to have some intelligence of its own, that it keeps all this physical material going around in a certain way. Because how much ever we study, we see that the physical material itself doesn't carry the needed intelligence, something else is driving it obviously. So the simplistic childish way of coming to it is, there is one man sitting up there and managing everything. But when you look at the size of the cosmos, one man managing things is just naturally goes. Women are today arguing, why can't it be a woman? Yes? I was speaking to a group of people in Nashville, in United States. I was just telling them a joke. In the joke, I referred to God as he. Immediately, ladies stood up. They said, do you believe God is a man? Oh, I know what I got into. I said, see, I was only telling a joke. It doesn't matter, you said him. Now in United States is a big argument, why can't God be a woman? They tried to settle it in the previous election. But you know the results. Then there are also arguments like this. See, you've heard of Idi Amin. Idi Amin, the Uganda man.  I agree with him.  So in the southern churches in United States, the big debate happening is God, white or black. Actual debates happening. You know in the previous election, they tried to settle that affair. Didn't work. But, you know, we in India know God is brown. Because you know, those people don't know. Because to those places, God sent only his messenger, son or somebody else and somebody else. Here God himself arrived nine times. Now, now, now. Especially Indians who are living outside the country are super proud about this. God came to our country nine times. So I keep reminding them that is because God wouldn't trust anybody else with Indians. He knew, he knew his son, his messenger, nobody would be good for the Indians. So he came hands-on himself, nine times and he failed. See, nine or ten times you can debate. Failure is not debatable, isn't it? It's visible. Hello? Failure is very visible, isn't it so? So we can go on endlessly with these things. But your belief systems are culturally relevant, existentially not relevant. So you must understand this is a godless culture. Here we revered people who contributed to our life. Our parents, we bow down to them. If you see, if Shiva comes also, this is what you do, is it? Isn't it so? If you see a tree also, this is what we do. If you see cow also, this is what we do. Even a snake, a cow gave us milk so we bow down. A snake because he didn't bite us today, we bow down. I'm saying we are doing the same act what we do to god, to man, woman, child, animal, everybody. Isn't it so? Then why are you calling a particular man god man? We are bowing down to everybody, aren't we? Nowadays youth are so active on social media and we have been using that platform for various purposes. We even use that for this youth and truth program, popularizing it here in Varanasi. We asked for several questions on the social media also and we selected the famous one, the most famous one out of those questions. So I have one question. There's Pranav who asked, at home they teach us how to behave with girls, but when I go out with my friends, we see something different, which is totally different. When I go online, the things are crazy. How is a man supposed to behave with or treat a woman? Well, a woman is… a woman is not a separate species, first of all. It's too much of man-woman thing is being done, unfortunately. It's a small biological difference to serve a certain purpose. We all hear today because of this difference, yes? Because we have a mother and a father, one happens to be a woman in that. Because of that, we are born and we are here. So we don't have to treat women like separate species. There was a time, we must understand this, there was a time when the world was such that a woman couldn't really go out and do much because of the nature of the world around. Suppose right now, you know, I don't know maybe two-three thousand people turned up from many parts of the world for yesterday's event in Kashi, I think in this more than sixty percent are women. Now, suppose this was thousand years ago, it would be ninety-five percent men, only five percent women maybe because to travel by walk or by on a horseback and to come to Kashi from thousand miles away would be a challenging thing for a woman, would… would not be very safe for a woman those days. But today you must understand it's not your liberal attitude which has brought women reasonably level, just technology. Technology has leveled the difference because your big muscle is no more useful. You need some brain. There was a time when man's muscle did everything on this planet. When man's muscle did everything on this planet, naturally man was dominant. This dominance also is misunderstood. He dominated in one arena which was filmed and reported. She dominated in a different arena which was private and not reported. But because we have taken to western modes of living right now very much, because of that, we have this… this controversy has been going on with me for last week, ten days because I said if you make economics the only value of your life, money is the only prime value in your life, then world will become very male because there will be no room for the feminine to find expression. There may be women, but they will surrender their feminine to be successful, unfortunately. This should not happen. Women should succeed as women, not as men. With… with full-blown feminine nature, they must be able to be successful in a society. They don't have to pretend to be a man to be successful. This has to go. If this has to go, the world has to move completely from brawn to brain. It's very important, this transition. Now, when you talk about economy or money power, it's brawn. It's a different kind of muscle. Money or muscle, we're talking about it in the same context. Money is another kind of muscle. So we are taking away the physical muscle and bringing in the money muscle. Once again, you're creating a male-dominated society, masculine-dominated society, because now women have understood how to be successful by being masculine. No, this is not a good thing for the world. There must be a world where women can be hundred percent feminine and still be absolutely successful. If this has to happen, money should not be the ruling factor. It should be just currency. Money is just currency to facilitate things. But right now money is a ruling factor. So masculine becomes the dominant force. We need to change this. Unless music, aesthetics, love, beauty and other things, everything becomes equal proportions. Feminine will not flourish. And if feminine is wiped out of this planet, then all the men will sit and wonder, why are we living? Sir, Guru in your AV, you said it was difficult for you to plant trees in people's mind and then rest of the thing just happened. So I want to ask how difficult… how do we plant this seed in their mind that females need to flourish as females? See, you don't have to plant it in their head. You have to plant it in your head. Like I said in my first question, yes, we can do it at all part, but then there are people, there is society. There are ways that people judge us. See, don't think there's no judgment for a male. Don't think there's exploitation for a male. It is there. It is just that for a woman, unfortunately, any little exploitation takes on a sexual tone. All right? That is the ugly part of it. Otherwise, don't think men are not exploited. They're exploited. In many different ways, you ask him. No, that is why a lawyer is successful. Because somebody is exploited, isn't it? I ought to say thank you, sir, for saying this. The problem right now is we are still in such a consciousness, anything that's weaker than us, we will exploit. Man, woman or child or animal. Yes or no? Anything that is weaker than us, because still we don't have brain in our head. We still have muscle in our head, okay? The muscle should transform into brain cells. Then we will see that for you to succeed, you don't have to really exploit anything, actually. In fact, if you get the love and cooperation of everybody, you will succeed even better. I will tell you an example. I am doing a program for one of the top international companies. One of the top companies. Twenty-five of the top executives are there. It's a three-day event. I have nine volunteers. I don't know if you noticed our volunteers here, without one instruction, they just go about doing everything that needs to be done. If something is not done, I know it could not be done. There's no question of somebody did not do it, because we built such a force. So they watched these nine people moving around. Then they asked, «Sadhguru, where do you get such people? Because they are always looking for attrition, you know? Then I said, you don't get them, you got to make them. How do you make them? I said, you have to make them fall in love with you. Oh, how do you do that? I said, first you must fall in love with them. Then they say, wait, wait. Then they say, oh, they don't pay us for that.   Otherwise you will simply sit. All right? So if you are not a circus monkey, then you will see exploiting is not a good thing. If everybody falls in love with you, how easy and wonderful it is to work.  They will make sure, won't you? When you're resentful about somebody and you have to work for them, won't you make sure their life is miserable? Yes. This is why people are thinking work is so stressful because everybody hates them. If they create a really loving and inclusive atmosphere around them, where everybody senses there is no sense of exploitation, say, I don't exploit anybody, but I work them to death. But before that, I'm working myself. People who are afraid are afraid I may kill myself. So they're also trying to catch up. There's no problem.  When you see you're only emulating me, then why will you feel exploited? I make them work seven days of the week, eighteen hours a day, non-stop, non-stop day or night at two o'clock in the morning. I'll call them and say, do this, do that, do that. Because so many things happening. You see, you're joining up, so I'm telling you. I can't let you, sir.  Inclusion, inclusiveness is the best way to do work in the world. If you're… if you think your work is important, if you think what you're doing is important, people come to me always, you know, we are a volunteer organization, over 4,600 whatever, full-time volunteers and over nine million part-time volunteers. Every day somebody comes up to me and says, sir, the guru, I can't work with this person. She's terrible. He's like this, he's like that. I say, see, in this world, there are only these kind of people. Like this, like this, like this, like this, like this, like this. Oh, only these kind of people. If you think what you're doing is very significant, you have to work with these kind of people. But if you think you want to work with ideal people, you must go to heaven and today. Yes? If you think what you're doing is very significant, you will work with whatever you have. If you have donkeys, you'll work with them. Yes? But you have not realized the significance of what you're doing. Now you're busy complaining about everything. This doesn't mean everything around me is perfect. But everybody is doing their best. That's all. So, Sadhguru, when he talked about social media, in social media one thing is very much important and one thing is very much spreading is like certain news are there and they are just forwarded to certain groups and then certain other things have occurred. In one of the media, you also gave a certain example for an explanation for mob lynching also. I won't go into that because you have already answered. But people think that these messages are like real ones and they just try to do what the message says. So, one person, one, I think, ladies, Madhu Sudanji has asked this that is there a line of suppression between the thinking and overthinking or rather there is no line of suppression or it's just a mental thing. See, I don't know if you've seen the byline for youth and truth. It's not here. No, not that. We're talking about exploring truth not with the seriousness of a gospel but with the playfulness of gossip. Gossip has been the most reliable system of seeking truth. Yes or no? If whatever the official thing comes out you will ask around your friends and business neighbors what happened, is this true, what happened, what happened? Everybody says five different things then you find your own filter for that and arrive at okay, this is what should have happened. So, social media is new. What it means is gossip has gone global suddenly. Gossip was always there locally. Was there or no? Ladies, tell me. Because more people confide in you because man is walking like this nobody wants to talk to him a woman is paying attention and walking so they will talk to her. Gossip has always been there in every society and it's a reliable thing but now suddenly gossip has gone global because of technology. Now this globalization of gossip has caused little bit of disruptions and the scale of things that happen is little disproportionate to what we were used to earlier because by the time we tell ten people it would have died down. Today one forward boom, 250 people got it in the town it could incite certain things. Well, it's been misused and it's been used. All right? Many people have used it well. Some people have misused it. This is true with any technology, anything, anything. Right now we can use this vessel to store water or I can take it and smash it on your head. So now shall we ban all the copper vessels because somebody's skull got cracked? Shall we? No. So we have to bring, culture the society. It's not going to happen overnight. Educate and evolve the society. If it's going out of control maybe little enforcement but just clamping down on anything and everything that causes little damage, this has happened. See, Mysore Bangalore, for example, I'm from Mysore, right from my very young age even when I was first time I went to Bangalore on my father's scooter without him knowing when I was just thirteen and a half years of age I got enough money, I put gas and zoom I went to Bangalore, made a circle there and came back all the way. It was a single track road going like this, like that with potholes, everything and many of the times I had to ride standing because of various things. One was height. So now they made a six-lane highway, all right? Later on when we... we graduated into motorcycles if we thought about it we just boom boom we went one hour thirty-five minutes 140 kilometers we did and came back. But now they put a six-lane highway and in the villages traffic started moving fast. There are lots of villages, they did not bypass the villages because of whatever land acquisition and stuff because they went on expanding the existing road. People get killed crossing the road unfortunately. Lot of pedestrians get killed in India because they don't know where to cross and they can't judge the speed or they're just so full of themselves they come in the way and they expect somebody to stop all kinds of things. So they went on putting road hump, road hump, road hump. In hundred and forty-two kilometers of road they put over one hundred and twenty road humps. So you got a six-lane highway you cannot even get to third gear. Boom boom, doop doop doop. Boom boom boom. What is the point of a highway? We could have a mud track. Why are you spending money on the highway? When you put in hundred and forty kilometers you put over one twenty road humps. Now by high court order it's all being removed but villages will put up their own thing. They will not learn how to cross the road. They will put up only road hump. So this culture must go. Some damage happens because of somebody's irresponsible action. Instead of fixing that irresponsibility we want to destroy the possibility how many good things have been done on social media? Yes? Many wonderful things have been done but now somebody gets killed because of somebody's mischief. So we want to ban that. This is not the way to do things. This is not the way to take the nation forward. It doesn't matter some people pay the price unfortunately it is true but we must bring more responsible usage of that rather than simply banning this, banning that. One more question that came over the social media was you told Ranveer that ambition is limited. It is a thought and not worth investing our life in it. Without goals or commitment or destination how will I even take my next step? And you also had the goal of Dhyanalinga. I am really confused. One part of that we've already answered about see what you call as ambition is essentially a thought that you generated, isn't it? How did you generate this thought? Maybe people around you influence. And above all, essentially your ambition or your thought is only coming from the limited data that you already possess. Yes or no? Do you believe many of you are in 20s or early 20s do you believe everything that you need to know about the world all the possibilities that life may hold you already have collected data about it? No. No.  Right now you are in college, you can fix a goal. Within the stipulated period I want to get out of the college. Not too early because they threw me out not too late because I didn't get out. Yes? Within the stipulated period I want to get out. How I want to get out, whether I want to get out first class or first this, that, that, that, how much I should know, that is a goal you can set because already it's a structured time, isn't it? Already it's a structured time. In this structured time you set a goal but you don't set a goal for your life ruling out all the possibilities that may open up. So if you decide right now this is what I'm going to become I was talking about that in terms of this is a problem in our families, in Indian families a three-year-old child, they will ask, what do you want to become? That will try on a little girl, I want to become doctor oh they're so happy. This is rubbish. Why a three-year-old girl is being made to decide what she should become? We don't know what's her genius. Yes? What talent she has, what genius she has you don't know, but instead of seeing how to unfold that you're fixing that so early on and ending up with a very constipated life. So the important thing is human beings have immense potential. If this has to unfold, one important thing is you create a situation of balance and pleasantness within you that means you're peaceful, joyful and balanced. If you're like this, every human being has a certain genius and this will start unfolding. When it unfolds, it will surprise everybody. Right now the problem is this in the world not even one percent of human genius actually blossoms rest get trapped in these kind of systems and systems and systems all over the place somebody gets trapped into earning a living somebody gets trapped because they fell in love too early you know, something or the other they get committed to something so ambition means you got committed to a single idea which came from very limited data in your life, isn't it? Don't get committed to a limited idea. Limited ideas are okay short term. Right now I'm here for five years in this university this is what I want to do in this five years, this is okay but life must unfold you must give it an opportunity to unfold only reason why you're committing yourself like this is you're afraid of uncertainty you think certainty has come because you pegged it there I am going to be a doctor, doctor at the age of three and you feel there is a certainty this certainty is death-like certainty because it takes away all possibilities it's important for a human being life should be explored many possibilities only then human genius will unfold and we have multifaceted human beings in the country otherwise this has been our problem because we're concerned about earning a living there was a time where everybody was a doctor in this country now everybody is a software engineer in this country this is not the way to go if it's needed we'll do that, that's not the point but the important thing is human genius must unfold if you destroy that because you've fixed a peg in your life it's very unfortunate like you said we have to we should set specific goals for short time if you're setting a goal we'll definitely work for it very hard but in due course we might also resort we see people amongst us we might resort to some unhealthy practices just because this is set in our mind that this is my goal, I want to achieve it we might set into unhealthy practices it happens amongst us or maybe at our workplace also what is unhealthy practices like foul competitive streak amongst our fellow mates or foul competitive practices it could be like pulling someone else down just to go ahead of it No if you pulled somebody else down you did not go ahead, both of you went back that's all that happened but right now this continues this is what I said if something has to unfold within you outside should not decide everything a few things outside will decide rest should come from within that being means for other creatures everything is decided by reaction with the outside for a human being there is enough intelligence that a whole lot of things have to come from within not from outside reactions so if you keep looking at somebody how somebody else is doing how somebody else is doing now obviously you will take a misstep they were asking me somebody, Sadguru how to beat the Pakistani team I said don't beat the Pakistani team just hit the damn ball you don't try to go and beat Pakistan with a cricket bat with the cricket bat you just hit the damn ball there is no Pakistan in the ball you just have to hit the ball so that Pakistanis will not find the ball like that you must hit it but if you are looking at Pakistani and wanting to beat him smash your face maybe so we need to understand whether it's a game or education or work or whatever else we are doing the important thing is the process that we are doing if you are not devoted to the process result will not happen it's like this suppose you want mangoes in your garden if you sit there and every day do mango meditation you do mango meditation mango meditation mangoes will not come if you just look at the soil manure, water, sunlight take care of these things well absolutely involved in the process even if you never thought about a mango one day mango will land on your head anyway inevitably if you do the process right consequence will happen right now you get committed to the consequence this means in yoga there is a saying if you have one eye on the goal you have only one eye to find your way it's very inefficient both eyes, everything you got into what you are doing right now result will come why will it not come why are you bothered how somebody else is doing are you doing your best or not that's all the question is isn't it with life even if you want to become a mystic don't worry about me this happened shall I tell you why sir I don't be worried you are the competitor if I want to become the mystic no I am not in competition with you but I must tell you because there is an aspiration it's nice it once happened Shankaran Pillai went to the bar once a couple of drops inside then everybody starts the stories get taller and taller everybody was saying their own things big things about their families and about stuff so Shankaran Pillai waited and then they nudge him hey what you got nothing to say no good no my uncle was a great mystic he knew the exact time date and mode of death in his life oh really he knew the time date and how he will die well ahead of time said yes my uncle great mystic really how did he come to know the judge told him there is a possibility shifted the whole thing in laws that's a nice thing Satguru Ji I would also like to open certain questions from the audience since we have time constraints so we will be only getting up for only two questions so I think whoever has to ask the question Namaskaram Satguru I am Aayushi Bikshan third year political science student Satguru my question is that today on one hand we see all these scientific psychological methods whereas on the other side we have spirituality and mysticism so how can we collaborate both the aspects both the factors and have a better governance and a better society maybe you think governance needs psychological treatment yes there are concepts in political science that you know work psychologically also see this is a culture where always the spiritual leaders always largely worked with the kings of the time not because they wanted to bum around in the palaces and get some benefits simply because they saw unless you benefit the man unless you benefit the man who has the power to make difference to millions of people people will not really benefit if you get to a position of responsibility or power that every word you utter every thought, every emotion and every action that you perform has influence over millions of people the first and foremost thing you need to do is to fix yourself so that how you think, how you feel how you speak and how you act is calibrated for the well-being of the people so this is why whether you take Krishna Krishna's whole life was just about marrying political system and the spiritual process you take Gathambuddha all his life he is working with kings you can work from bottom up that is one way but that's a long way today it is possible because we have communication I want you to imagine when a Gautama walks from village to village if he speaks even ten people will not hear village to village village to village forty years of his enlightened life he walked and walked and walked but impact is not good he knows that so he goes to the kings and try to impact them because once they are impacted they will change things in the nation because monarchy is a kind of autocratic rule if he gets it, he will make sure something happens in a democratic process it is not so impactful but it is still impactful here people are the leaders but fortunately today we have ability to communicate like never before we can sit here and talk to the whole world if you want this was never possible many great beings have come but unfortunately when they spoke hardly fifty people could hear and even if they heard somebody wrote down all wrong and after thousand years another hundred people modified it in so many different ways by the time it comes to you after thousand, two thousand years you don't know what the hell is coming to you see these cameras are recording if you say something different then what I said they will play the video I am saying this was never possible before so now we can work up from grassroots to up but at that time the only way to work was top down because down is not possible to reach only top is possible to reach so today we can work both ways but ground up is more effective today that is why we are working with the people so between psychology and spirituality what is the difference see with psychology you are trying to analyze the the mechanics of thought process in a certain way essentially thought and emotion but in the yogic culture in the spiritual cultures of India we don't give any significance to your thought you can think what you want we know it's just the surface of who you are because thought is coming only from the data that you have gathered isn't it so hello only from the limited data that you have gathered thought is coming but your behavioral patterns patterns are coming from dimensions much deeper than thought a whole lot of people who if you have ever been psychologically little disturbed suddenly you see something else beyond what you have known what your regular thought pattern and emotional patterns are something beyond that is influencing you and pushing you and pulling you in ways that you can't help yourself yes or no you've seen such people if it's not happened to you so we don't pay any attention to your present level of thought and emotion because thought patterns and emotional patterns we just see is an acquired pattern which has happened because of the data that you have but other dimensions of influence within you are there we wish to bring balance to that dimension but for this you need willingness and you have to work with people but with psychology also you have to endlessly talk most people cannot be talked out of anything they will talk you out of it okay yes so when it talking doesn't work when counseling doesn't work you have chemical bombing you put chemicals into the system in the form of pills or whatever which could balance because after all human experience is all rooted in chemistry every human experience has a chemical basis to it what you call as peace joy blissfulness agony ecstasy stress anxiety everything has a chemical basis to it so now we are looking at how to create a chemistry of blissfulness this is the greatest chemical factory on the planet do you agree with me the most sophisticated and complex chemical factory on the planet the question is only are you a great manager or a lousy manager that's all it is so we are looking at how to manage one's chemistry without taking external inputs the modern psychiatry is looking at how to manage human chemistry by putting outside ingredients well when things have gone to the extreme that's the way to do it if things are reasonably in control we have systems through which one can work themselves out of it so ananji question last question one last question okay ask give the microphone very good for you sir my name is Sushant Kumar Krishnan I am a research scholar from VHU and very much fortunate to have time to clear my doubt from yourself sir like you know 7 years back when I got admission in VHU in diploma course it was a very small course just a part time what course? Diplomine Tourism Management I was very much happy to enroll in that course I went to my house to my father shouting like anything that I got admission in VHU as like I have cracked IAM and the bar so like you know my father was okay fine and now after 7 years I have cracked NET and got admission PSD but I am not happy with what I am doing sir because I don't know I have lost my spark at that time in diploma I was so much concerned about my study and being a part of VHU like I was much more concerned My question is I have lost my spark okay and I am not very much like you know consistently motivated person I have lost my motivation how to regain that to live my life and lead in a you know like a joyful way to regain your inner peace thank you sir See the nature of life is such if you if you if you go outside in the garden and try to catch an ant the VHU ant who is born here grown up here and probably he'll die here that VHU ant if you try to catch him he'll say okay to hell with my life okay crush me if you want is it so he'll do everything to protect himself he values his life isn't it very much or no tiny little creature that we may not even notice we may step on him without even seeing him unfortunately but he values his life immensely does he or no he's got spark but you a human being at least on this planet you're the peak of evolution physiologically at least yes other behavioral aspects if we may have questions but physiologically at least the most evolved creature on the planet what the most evolved creature on the planet means is it has the most complex neurological system and it has the highest level of cerebral capability that means you can think you can remember you have memory you have a very vivid sense of memory and a fantastic sense of imagination an ant doesn't have such a vivid sense of memory nor does he have any great imagination he has some but he has a presence of mind about the life that he is living because the education systems that you're going through right from kindergarten level is such that it is about everything except you it's about everything else somebody's PhD in tourism somebody's PhD in biotechnology somebody's PhD in something nothing about this how does this function there is no attention at all a human being functions you know you have a kalabhairava temple here what this means is a human being exists in three times he lives because of the richness of his memory how rich is your memory determines what you will do and what you will not do right now isn't it so so memory is important the present experience is important and how vivid is your imagination for tomorrow is very important right now the problem is these things have all gotten mixed up because discipline of faculty has simply not come nothing has been thought to our children that there needs to be discipline means people think English kind of discipline walking like this like it is discipline of faculty is not there because of this your own mind turns against you what happened ten years ago you still suffer hello what may happen day after tomorrow you already suffer there is no discipline of faculty you don't know how to use your memory you don't know how to use your imagination your memory makes you suffer your imagination makes you suffer and you think you are suffering your life 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 isn't it so if you suffer the greatest faculties that you have what can we do with you if you suffer a ailment understandable if you suffer a disability understandable if you suffer your ability hopeless case yes or no you are suffering your capabilities if you are suffering your disability it's alright you are suffering your capabilities I must tell you this about four five months ago I think you might have seen it on the news a young lady 34 year old lady who was a television anchor in Hyderabad jumped off the fifth floor window killed herself left a note nobody is responsible for my death my brain is my enemy how many million years it took to get this brain to this size and now it becomes your enemy she articulated this but this is true with almost 90% of the human beings they are suffering their own intelligence isn't it if you take away half their brain if you take away half their brain they will be peaceful yes and that is why a whole bunch of idiots are going about saying that the ultimate goal of life is peace of mind such people will only rest in peace now you young man they kept you here for too long seven years they should have thrown you out in four years then you would have done something university life if somebody is not keying you up all the time it could become too easy you know even I remember when I went to the university most of the time we were in the canteen not in the garden the easiest part of my life was university I think I know nobody is going to like it and but I think this university time must be shortened unless somebody is producing something brilliant they must be chucked out within three to four years time everybody if they are doing something very focused and very intense they must stay otherwise see this is all I am telling all of you young people do whatever the hell you want in your life but you must be intensely focused on something if you are not investing in anything your life it will just go waste because as I told you in the very beginning one basic ingredient of your life is time and this is just going away already you are two hours closer to your grave since I came here yes or no two hours closer to Manikarnika yes or no yes you are not immortal it's just a limited amount of time are you a precious life I am asking you is your life precious to you then you must decide where you want to invest this life if this is precious if this is worthless throw it somewhere if this is precious invest in something worthwhile isn't it so if you invest this in something worthwhile not spark you will be a flame all the time my first question was being a mistake right investing it in a good one being a mistake because you are a lawyer because you are a lawyer judge may tell you Supreme Court I court we can have a concluding remarks as you said that time is limited so we are approaching towards the end of this wonderful gossip I would like to thank you for spending your time because if time is money then you have spent millions on us no no no let me correct you time is not money time is life what is it see here she is already a practicing dentist money money money money if I would say thank you I know I will reach out of words I will not have some words to express my gratitude the only thing is if somebody would ask me what have you got in Kashi now I can answer that once I had Sadhguru then thank you very much Hey the end is a judge you are not the lawyer Sir I think one phone rings then when you said that when you hear the song you dance and I saw a video of Ranveer Singh sir so can we have thank you because because that is a ship nagari and we just trong it please if we can that your favourite one I would music will come we will wait I want to see the young people dance and then we will see alright anyway I want I want all of you to understand and appreciate this that see we are we are living in a country where still millions of people nearly 500 million people probably don't even get to eat properly alright in such a country when all of us have the privilege that at least we don't have to search for our food there and not just that you are in a premier institution like BHU thanks to Malviya ji that he created this you are part of his vision to educate this India where when the British left we were over 90% illiterate so at that time somebody had the vision to create this and you are part of this great institution I want you to always appreciate the privilege that you are here which so many others have not found in this country please make use of this time at the university to build yourself about the nation about the society about this that build yourself into such a grand human being because if there are no great human beings there will be no great society there is no great society there is no great nation there is no great world so you can't build a great world or a great nation you can only make yourself into a great human being and around you wonderful things will happen it's my wish and my blessing


I'm going to let this one play out. Myles rules the battle. No. I didn't know. Why would you say that out loud?


Okay, so right now I have been instructed by the creative director to wrap a little bit. So this is Andrea Wong. This is this part for you. It's just an excerpt because there's a complex line of color to it. Is that mums? Yeah? Yeah. So ready? One, two. We're just going to do, um, so, so, so, so this is what it feels like to match with someone at your level.  It's a feeling of freedom. Freedom of being the light. It's been Franklin with a key and a kite. You see it, right? The conversation lasted two minutes, maybe three minutes, everything we said in total agreement. It's a dream and it's a bit of a, she's trying to climb up the chair and that was distracting me. So we're going to stop there because Ben Franklin with like a key and a kite. So I was talking to Ben Franklin, the statue, um, when we were at Wharton for a leadership thing and, um, I have a picture of that on Facebook. Excuse me, madam, excuse me, Derek, um, and this, uh, yeah, so Mimo, Mimo instructed me to rap and so I did. And that song, uh, reminded me of, uh, of the time I was, uh, talking to Ben Franklin on a bench. And at that time there were, there were, uh, there are two things that came to mind when I remembered Ben Franklin on the statue, the statue, okay, um, is, is that number one, that was the, the trip where I had my second memory of being definitely afraid of death because a dear friend colleague of mine had, um, I got into a major, major motorcycle accident, a Harley, I think, and, uh, and I, uh, yeah, I just, I couldn't function. I was crying most of the day, um, and I, um, well, first the, the gardener, the person who is tending the park in, in the education center, um, checked in on me, a complete stranger came up to me and gave me a hug and held me while I cried. Um, I, I didn't know if she was going to live or not that day and, um, thank God you did live because we have stuff to do together, my friend. Um, so that's one thing that, that brought up and, um, the second thing that it brought up was a memory of, uh, light, uh, hello, a memory of, um, the gates, a memory of light, so thank you to Robbie for this, which I have yet to read, um, but I'm coming back to it. So that, that event reminded me of, as well, um, this, uh, executive, this leadership fellows program thing that we did at Gemi pass in Switzerland. Shout out to Switzerland. We might be coming back soon. Yeah. Um, and we had two mountaineers who has been in life, um, who did leadership training as mountaineers. And we were, um, it was illuminating and, and, and Roger, Roger loved what he did and, um, it reminded me of the time that I received the news that he died, uh, in an avalanche, um, doing what he loved. And so I aspire to that kind of death where I'm doing what I love, like hanging out with the creative director and chatting to friends and thinking of audacious art projects to make the world a better place, uh, to improve the state of the world. I want to talk to mommy. You can talk to mommy in a second. I want to talk to her. Um, and the phone. Hi, mommy. Hi, Mimo. Yeah, that's mommy right there. Um, you can talk to me forever. Just watch this all the time. Um, but since we don't know when we're going to die, if we don't do what we love right now, um, if I don't do what I love right now, I will, I risk not being able to achieve my dream of dying doing something I love. So that can happen at any moment death can. And so, yeah, these are the things this is like, these are the memories that I had, and this is a message to Sean, um, about the crystal, crystal palace. I mean, the crystal palace or sorry, the memory palace idea that came out of complexity weekend off 2020 is that I'm going to offer you this. And this is what I understand. And Alex corrects me, please. This is what I understand yoga to be one aspect of it. I mean one aspect of it. And this is in my Buddhist meditation practice. One and just the Tao of nature is that the life that we're living, the complex adaptive system, the whole thing, the universe, whatever, how far we define it. It is, it is a memory palace. We just need to pay attention to the signs. And this is why living, like being here now is so important is because we miss it when we miss the signs. We don't pay attention. So for example, um, mims, mims here is, um, playing with a penguin. And who else have you got there? Penguin and bunny. So there's something significant about penguins and bunnies. And it's my job to, to find out because everything's connected, right? Everything's connected. So that one simple thing, um, the rotating one simple thing, our energy gets deployed and transformed in so many different ways that being here now, meditating, all of these practices, whatever practice you're doing, hi mims, hi mims, shout out to miss Adele for, for giving me a very Filipino, Filipino nickname to her nickname, which is mims. You just take the first syllable and you make it plural, basically. That's where jacks comes from. Okay, so that's it. That's the, we are the world. We are the world.
