jealousy happen mainly if you don't got anything from your hard work but others got everything..

[jessepera]

if i ever met sadhguru in person i would hug him and never let go

[JaneyImaaniEmotionalAwareness]

So true, when our happiness is determined by outside variables it will always go up and down 💕

"Seeing you succeed reminds me of my failures." That's really why it's so hard for many people that have to deal with being jealous of their friend's success. It's a character issue that can be corrected. I created a video on this because of the vulnerability that it takes to have such a conversation. Loved everything that Sadhguru said.

This has change a lot in me. I can finally understand what I have to do in my life. I was feeling jealous of my classmates but that is because of there photo where they show there success. I have to live my life on my terms and condition. I have to let my heart chose what way should I go

Sadhguru's sense of humor is amazing 🧡🙏😂 the coolest enlightened friend which today's youngster can ever have.
We're such a fortunate generation

[josephalexanderovidi]

We need to be independant of others opinions.
This is true power.

[karthickgandhi]

Every time I see sadhguru ji I feel happy.... Every time I hear his thoughts I feel energetic....

[raymondtendau]

Compare yourself with who you were yesteryears.Not who someone is today.

[saamykrishvj]

Though I have blessed with good life..lot of time I felt jealous about others..I don't know this is creating unwanted pressure..in me..I ashamed of myself...this is indication that you are psychologically weak

[KailashSGubbi]

Jealousy is that feeling which can only lead to a degradation of a human feeling.

[TruthTriumphs]

True...When you manage your own thoughts and emotions you become a great CEO of your own body. You do things that you love and are happy for others success.
Most of the people in the crowd haven't understood this. They just sit and nod their heads and go out and are miserable again.

[srikanthuppiretla]

sadhguru is a precious gift to this generation. isn't it so ? iam asking you, hallo? :)

[leggyReidc]

Never thought of my peace of mind as a company i needed to manage. Very well put Mr. Sadguru, thank you for sharing your wisdom.

[maliksy]

Absolutely we should not use the word friend in this context, well said

Typically Financial success brings a certain amount of security. 👩‍🌾

[beasweirdaspossible]

When your own life’s a mess, it’s not that easy to put on a happy face for your friends success and i know you feel terrible for having such feelings for your loved one’s but know that it’s okay! Its natural. You’re just a human.

[harsha]

Learn and train yourself in such a manner, that you will always perform at your best in all conditions at any given point of time.

[celebratingilluzion]

Saw Sadhguru in person for the first time today... In Bangluru

[anoopg]

When he speaks about a complex subject it becomes very clear & easily understandable.

Thank you!!!!
