You Are NOT the Body, You Are NOT the Mind! | Sadhguru

"In search of wellbeing, we have done all kinds of insane things on this planet, but wellbeing has not happened. If wellbeing is what you seek, In is the only way out." - Sadhguru

In collaboration with the Isha Foundation.

David Eagleman is a leading expert on the functioning of the brain, how the subconscious
determines most of our actions and thoughts.
For Eagleman to appreciate that all that he has studied is simply an expert explanation for the mechanism how most people live compulsively and NOT Consciously must be very hard for him to grasp. Kudos to him for his effort.

What we accumulate can be ours, but cannot be us. Our opinions, likes and dislikes can be ours, but they cannot be us. Holding all of our accumulations Aside, allows US to live
unburdened by the compulsive thought process.

Ohh! What a Explanation ....amazing this man is here for changing our thought & behavioral I don't know who kept your name sadguru but it's meaningful you are really the gem who come in our living world to change ourself and being enlightened as you dream.

People tend to think that the "mind" and the "body" are the whole of themselves, but they don't realize that there is another level of self: the perfect "observer".

When you observe your thoughts, you feel that you are the observer, you know that you have a lot of troubles, thoughts running around in your head, you are the observer, not the voices and troubles in your head, and you feel at peace.

It's like observing cars on the road, you know that you're not the cars, you're just the observer observing the cars, you're at a distance from the cars, you're not affected by them, you're just observing them; In the same way, when you are observing the troubles and thoughts in your head, you know that you are not the troubles and thoughts in your head, you are just the observer observing the troubles and thoughts in your head, and there is a distance between you and the troubles and thoughts in your head, you are not affected by them, you are just observing them.

When you're observing the thoughts, you are the observer, you are observing, knowing, the sounds and the troubles in your head are working, so you the observer, are at a distance from the sounds and the troubles in your head, you're separated from them, you don't seem to be affected by the sounds and the troubles in your head, you just observe them calmly and know that they're working, so you are freed from their bondage, so the pain is reduced, and you are at peace.

I admire the patience of Sadhguru HAHSHHS

Our true identity is often mistaken for the physical body and mind, which are merely accumulations of food and impressions, respectively. By identifying with these accumulations, we limit our perception and experience of reality. The cyclical nature of physical existence and the influence of time bind us to these identities. However, by distancing ourselves from the physical body and its processes, we can transcend these limitations. True enlightenment comes from recognizing that what we call 'me' is not the body or the mind, but something beyond. This realization allows us to perceive life without distortions created by accumulated identities and experiences. The exploration of life and consciousness, untainted by social and cultural conditioning, leads to a deeper understanding of existence. Both science and mysticism are vital in this journey, as they cater to our innate desire to know and explore the true nature of reality.

wonderful Amazing Sadhguru 🙏🏻 Thanks for sharing ❤️

[maxhamidi]

Yes, you are your body and your mind and something more! Knowing that "more" is the key..

[theresaturner]

I think his trying to say that is that the person who we think is me is not who i am. We have been programmed to think this way but in reality we are consciousness we are the universe as a whole. I do believe we have a higher self and once we leave here we will be complete a supreme being.Only if we are born we will have eternal life.

[ChrisW-pufo]

I am the entity, the body and mind are my tools, I've experienced my tools all my life 😂, up until last year I'd not tasted the none physical, , I got a taste, and now I know the truth, love to you all

[Anna-antiaging]

This is not our fault
This is what we have been thought all our life.

[ButtersLStotch]

I would like to expand my perception on reality, I’ve learned there’s a big difference between consciousness and our perception

[jake]

What wil this do to me if I say this all the time at night time what actually happens and how long do I have to e todo this til I understand

[vwwilson]

He wants to know who is the I that says it is not the mind and body, and the I is the consciousness, like the actor, and the mind and body is the character within this play we call life, but the life Sadguru is referring to is the functioning of the body, the breath going in and out and not the dramas of Life's play.

[CindySwisher]

I'd say touché but thank God for individual identity, me verses mine & objective reality. However the question of other minds still haunts me & had since I was a teenager. Similarly positive affirmations are disturbing.

[parmanandmahabir.]

THE I THAT WE KNOW IS THE METAMORPHOSIS OF MATTER AND TIME.I DO NOT DIE, MATTER MELTS LIKE ICE AND DISSIPATES AND I RETURNS TO TIME.

[dharmarajansunuraj]

He never listen to what he saying or Discussing.
It is a deliberate act.If it happens
He would have realised how much great He is.

Even the memories, that brings trauma or something that you value is something that u aquired, that isn't you, just the data u accumulated.

Brain is the organ that stores those data, it store data that subconscious mind aquires.

So.. Its not you. The brain isn't you.
Every fuction that happens there is data you collected over time.

Now, on the base of everything, you see someone, is operating every part of your body.

Wether its your kidneys, heart, cells or brain.

Someone is constantly giving command to work it that way, the information that is stored in Brain, but is being operated by someone.


That someone is You. Your soul.


And you are not conscious of yourself.

To feel yourself you must shut up all the nonsense and feel it, its hard nut not impossible.

Just tone down and sit. Even to experiment, sit down..

You will realise every action you do, is somehow copying someone, or some information you liked, something you learned from someone.

And within that fog of information, somewhere there is you.


So sit down and tone down that noise, and see yourself.

When God arrives let me know. Seriously come on here and show us. Plenty of sufferring, daily, no god though. We're they all damned? Or did one or two pray to the right god at the right church, sit at the correct pew, kneel rt on time, and follow all the rules. They died too. From whatever, it was...
Promises made there in your book randomly occur to this one or that.
Please, when God arrives please do let me know. Love to believe.

[willsgro]

sadhguru is avoiding the question "who is behind all the bodies and minds?" the answer is God, God is talking to God and God is avoiding the question God is asking. They are going in circles until Sadhugur empties all his rhetoric

[asangmaun]

Who address whom? “ You are not body “. Which body without Mind says “ You are not mind “. Pagal House patients?😂
