Wow. I been dealing with depression for 10 years, and it hasn’t hit me that I enjoy been sad. This change the whole thing I’ll come back to this whenever I feel like I’m crossing that line. Mind can be very powerful.

"No, No I am like this because my father abused me when I was 7 years of age. If you know all that bullshit, you can as well turn yourself around, isn't it?" - Sadhguru. Truth!

Being a Spiritual Guru...Sadguru should be highly careful about his words & narratives. Unless you have experienced any problems or pain, one should be careful about making any comment on it. Depression & anxiety are not favourite timepass of any one. It's a pain & needs remedy. As our body gets sick our spirit can also feel uneasy in long journey of life. And these things happen because we all are humans not God. Three months of depression/anxiety or anger can make a person insane. These words can worsen anxiety of any dedicated follower of you. Kindly think 100 times before making comments on any sensitive matter. Because you are not a common man. You are guide to many's life.

2020 anyone?

"It doesn't pay to be sick, unhappy, depressed, it doesn't pay! To be joyful and ecstatic, it pays!"

This is the worst mental health advice. One of the most common symptoms are a feeling of numbness and feeling catatonic. Not intense emotions. Is he actually saying depressed people are seeking attention and going insane?! Even if this is the case it is a cry for help NOT attention. Who chooses to live like this for negetive attention and pity?! I hope people going through clinical depression don't see this. It's gaslighting plain and simple. If you are depressed get real help from therapists or doctors or close family and friends who can support you not from a baba who is making unsubstantiated claims and remedies that are harmful. It's not an individual endeavour. A community response is extremely important.

Thank you! You are absolutely correct.

"Strength doesnt come from what you can do. Strength comes from overcoming things you once thought you couldnt." - I learned that quote from a song

I recently in the last few weeks found Sadhguru and his knowledge is transforming my life because he speaks to the issues I have asked myself since childhood. I listen carefully with a certain degree of skepticism because I don’t seek a leader, pastor or guide. I seek knowledge and he offers that with no conditions.

I love this man. He is so inspiring. I listen to you every morning Sadhguru, and feel inspired to carry on.

It is true, My life has improved a lot. Just don't get angry.

He is just saying be careful with your anger and emotions that you may get stuck. also he is saying it DOES at some level come down to choice. That is the good news. He also says there are a few that this isnt the case. It is a warning of sorts and also good news that we have some control.

yea i wont atention from people , im causing this nightmare to myself because i feel like i dont get enough atention unbelivable, that all im going to say

First realize that the solution lies within you, then look for it. Actively search for ways to improve your condition, mentally, energetically and physically. Over time things will get better for you.

we need to be cautions on distinguishing assigning our understandig of responsability to people from describing reality. telling depressed people that it is their fault to be depressed is not objective reality but its rather trying to put preasure on them hoping that preasure would incentivise the opposit behaviour and therefore reduce depression. unfortunately people dont always respond well to just more preasure. people even get depressed from too much social pressure. if such people get told that its "just their fault" they might lose even more confidence, give up entirely or get depressed or frustrated about people not taking them seriously. this is why i think sadhguru spreading his wisdom is in this case DANGEROUS and HARMFUL.

As someone who has suffered from mental illness since I am 15, I can safely say that one cannot “act depressed.” This is very dangerous when a “guru” can allow himself to give such uninformed and unscientific views on mental illness. Mental illness is not an excuse “not to go to work.”

My First Day at Listening SadhGuru. Very comforting.

this indian dude is right

I just stumbled across this channel, fascinating to see this kind of perspective on life

We all forget the great power of our minds.. And of our brains.. don't let them take over your life. We need to be rooted in reality. Thank you sadhguru

this guy is an absolute genius. and I am not even born hindu and i appreciate him !

Not really sure about this. I'm sure you can try to make the best of a bad situation, but for a lot of people they try really hard and cannot overcome depression. It's not true that you can just 'think yourself better' - not for clinical depression at least. If that was the case, no one would be depressed. And I think this lays too much blame on the individual and not enough on social and individual circumstances. Perhaps people in society just genuinely ought to be nicer, and then less people would be depressed? Also, I think you get this the wrong way around. People want attention BECAUSE they're depressed. They don't become depressed for attention. Usually I love your videos but as someone who has and still does suffer from depression, and has also lived and worked with fellow sufferers, it is easier for those on the outside to imagine it is entirely self-created. There may of course be some element of wallowing, but there are many more attempts to deal with depression in a healthy way that many may desperately try, and to no avail. It is the same for physical ailments. If you do not take time off to rest and recover, you will likely become more ill. I have witnessed this in myself and many others. The drive to 'push through' is actually often very toxic and creates more problems than it solves. Obviously, you know yourself best, and if you feel unwell, then you are unwell. I do not believe many at all would rather sit at home for the sake of a snowflake than go to work. And if they do, then there is clearly some mental health issue at play here. This is not nothing. It cannot be dismissed as nothing.

he is one of the greatest guru of the planet.

Changing my life in a postive way, thank you sir.

I"m so thankful that i found Sadhguru.

I like this guy. My new teacher.

I am giggling throughout listening... Imagining!

Yeah, true. This is why I don’t ask help because it’s just asking for attention. I hide it and suffocate under the depths of the abyss while everyone thinks I am fine. Well said, Sadhguru. My thoughts always reminds me of that, and I completely agree that I should hide it til the day I die.

I like Sadhguru but I don't agree with this video. Depression seems to be a choice. It's not a choice. Maybe it's something inside your mind create by your self but there isn't a switch to turn off. It isn''t so easy.

there is nothing to ad, He is Perfect

Amazingly honest and objective analysis. Sadhguru nails it yet again.

My son introduced me to the Sadhguru. 😊

Never allow your body to control you.

Your words are changing life's around the world, thank you....thanks a ton.

I agree. Being angry is your own problem. It is a choice.

one of the best and up to the point speech i ve ever had..

He explains all very very good!!I love to ear him!!

This is indeed one of the best videos I have seen! Amazing Clear Concise insight - so very right sadhguru...

After listening many of his preachings. This one here is what I clearly got. No questions unanswered now .

Dear sir I am small I thought there is god in in everyone else’s wouldn’t ha been born to begin with. Any how the image of shiv in your institution reminded me of you in another time. Thank you for teaching world of wisdom. If we search for god. God may be right there we can’t see any how sir. I am not there to do yoga may be someday when I get old and nothing to do. For now Iam truly humbled dear Swamiji.❤ with lots of love.

Everyone, remember to smile it's beautifully contagious. ThisisHim TheBuddhistNinja.

Such a gift! Thank you! Blessings!

I want initiation from sadhguru 😢😢😢 but unfortunately I'm unable to meet him right now I wish one day hopefully I can meet you sadhguru and get your blessings 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Of course you can be mad "at" somebody. It just means that you are angry as far as you're concerned with or in the presence of a certain person; and otherwise you're not angry.

Thank you for your words Sadhguru 🙏

Uplifting and healing thank you☺️

very useful in daily life and for whole life

Love what he says! This video is from 2012...I'll look for more of his wisdom!

Teacher glossed over doing shadow work, he did state it needed to be done, he just breezed over it. Karma work is also important. Trauma is embedded into dna memory and it IS up to you to decide a different path. I thank Teacher for his insights. It is up to us to gather the usefulness and expound. Life is way too short to relish in unkindness. ❤

SADHGURU IS GREAT

Thank you sadhguru, infinite gratitude

I must say.. the most insightful speech of sadhguru.. every sentence is essential to teach that it pays to be joyful and not to be sick.. give incentives to be joyful. _/\_ pranam.

I am 17 now.....but I am overthinking person...since childhood.....I don't know when this depression had got started and now it's really worse and I am in 12th...yet have to fight and study....no one talk with ..neither could understand...and including I have ocd....lol...but still I every day make my mind to think positive...how much negative or worse it take place think positive...to calm my mind and study...until I reach to that maturity and treat for this🥲🥲🥲

you sir made my day a loot more hapier!!

This is eye opening and he is so suttle

Thank you, Sadhguru.

Thank you!❤️🙏

Its really pleasure to listen to him always

thanks for making me aware about this!!

Thankyou sir Very Wise words Really Thankyou so much

What an amazing inspiration

yes that just made my day.

Thank you. I needed this

Hmm, life doesn't scare me anymore. it's pointless to continue even if you have everything you need. I feel lame being conscious and having obligations. To acquire anything, whether material or non-material, you have to take action. I think it's better not to be aware of existence due to the multitude of responsibilities and tasks that need to be done. I wish I was dead 😴even if what Sadhguru says is true I need to do something, yoga practices to fix it cause my stupid mind is wrong 😪

Great way of explaining.keep enlightening us with your knowledge and wisdom

It's very simple you made it true .

Very down to Earth and sensible.

some of the best ive heard from him!! amazing!

Thank You Sadhguru.... You Are A Great Atman....
