Questioner: Sadhguru, you carry yourself with such ease and poise.
So just wondering if you have a bad day
or you’re frustrated at times
then how do you actually tackle with such situations?
Sadhguru: (Laughs) Why,
why are you trying to label a day as a bad day or a good day?
It is only human beings who in their experience
they do these things to themselves.
Why they do these things to themselves is –
see, today there was a glorious sunrise.
Millions of flowers blossomed across the planet.
So many wonderful things are happening.
Even the stars are twinkling right now.
The moon is full today.
Everything is fantastic
but one worm of a thought in your head
can make a mess out of you.
Isn't it so?
Isn't it so?
So why this is so is
somewhere you are giving or ascribing a lot more importance
to your psychological process than the existential process.
Instead of being a life,
you’re being a psychological case,
yes,
because your thought process and your emotion has become far more important
than the existential process.
That is the only problem, isn't it?
Or in other words the creation,
the Creator’s creation has not impacted you enough yet.
So you think,
your petty creation in your head is bigger than that
or to put it bluntly you’re too full of yourself,
that’s the only reason why you can have a bad day.
Otherwise, why?
‘No, the stock market crashed.’
So what the sun rose. (Laughter)
So many things happen.
Does it mean to say nothing goes wrong in my life?
More things go wrong with my life than anybody else’s life probably,
anybody here I would say because
I don’t hesitate to just put my hand into just about anything.
Do you understand? (Laughs)
I do not hesitate to put my hand into anything.
When you put your hand into just about anything,
lot of things will bite you, right?
Naturally it will.
I want you to understand this,
the whole process of suffering is essentially that
you have not opened your eyes,
you have not peeled your eyes properly and look at the grandeur of everything
that’s happening around you,
not yet.
You’ve not paid attention.
You looked at the world like this. (Gestures)
You must look at the world like this. (Gestures)
If you just look at one thing, you can’t believe how it is.
If you ever look at an ant,
just see what kind of technology has gone into it.
It can keep you engaged for the rest of your life doing research.
Yes or no?
So the problem is just this that
you are giving too much importance to what’s happening in your little head,
not paying attention to all the magnificent things that are happening in the existence.
I have never seen a bad day in the existence.
I have only seen bad days in people’s moods and minds, isn't it?
