The mechanism that decrees that we cannot evade the consequences of our own actions. In reality, karma has nothing to do with reward and punishment. Karma simply means action: your action, your responsibility. Accumulation of karma is determined only by your intention and the way you respond to what is happening to you.
By living consciously and fully inhabiting each moment, you can free yourself from the cycle. Karma is an exploration and a manual, restoring our understanding of karma to its original potential for freedom and empowerment instead of a source of entanglement.
In a literal sense also, emotions are a chemical cocktail that course through our bodies. But while we have no problems with pleasant emotions, unpleasant emotions are the source of much angst in our lives. In Emotion: The Juice of Life, Sadhguru looks at the gamut of human emotions and how to turn them into stepping stones rather than stumbling blocks.
Unfortunately, relationships can make and break human beings too. Why are relationships such a circus for most of us? What is this primal urge within us that demands a bond — physical, mental, or emotional — with another? And how do we keep this bond from turning into bondage? These are the fundamental questions that Relationships: Bond or Bondage looks at as Sadhguru shares with us the keys to forming lasting and joyful relationships, whether they are with husband or wife, family and friends, at work, or with the very existence itself.
Sadhguru is a yogi and profound mystic of our times. An absolute clarity of perception places him in a unique space in not only matters spiritual but in business, environmental and international affairs, and opens a new door on all that he touches. Pulsating with his razor-sharp intelligence, bracing wit and modern-day vocabulary, the book empowers you to explore your spiritual self and could well change your life.
It seeks to re-create the life journey of a man who combines rationality with mysticism, irreverence with compassion, ancient wisdom with a provocatively contemporary outlook and a deep knowledge of the self with a contagious love of life. In his early years, Jaggi Vasudev or Sadhguru as he is now known was a chronic truant, a boisterous prankster, and later a lover of motorbikes and fast cars.
It is evident that the same urgency, passion and vitality echo in his spiritual pursuits to this day, from his creation of the historic Dhyanalinga—the mission of three lifetimes—to his approach as a guru. In Sadhguru's view, faith and reason, spirituality and science, the sacred and the material, cannot be divided into easy binaries.
Truth for him is a living experience instead of a destination, a conclusion, or a matter of metaphysical speculation. The possibility of self-realization, he strongly believes, is available to all. Drawing upon extended conversations with Sadhguru, interviews with Isha colleagues and fellow meditators, poet Arundhathi Subramaniam presents an evocative portrait of a contemporary mystic and guru—a man who seems to pack the intensity and adventure of several lifetim.
An intriguing look into the truth that lies at the core of existence, this book provokes readers to delve into spaces that are not for the faint-hearted, yet deftly guides us with answers about reality that transcend our fears, angers, hopes, and struggles. Sadhguru keeps us teetering on the edge of logic and captivates us with his answers to questions relating to life, death, rebirth, suffering, karma, and the journey of the Self.
He was omniscient, omnipotent and All pervading. He had magic in His words and cured even incurable maladies by His words. The book dwells on His grace and glory on His disciples. It also highlights the importance of Guru and how to cultivate self-realization. He had such a power that nobody came empty hands from His shrine. The same experience is being felt even now and more than one hundred thousand people visit every day to seek His blessings. His ash from Dhuni ever burning fire is a gift to mankind and its mere application absolves them from all sins and illnesses.
The author is visiting His shrine over 40 years and had myriad experiences and His blessings which is also covered in the book. The mere reading of this book will stand any one in good stead in life. A must-read book! Human consciousness is like a machine.
When people learn how to master their own minds and bodies as they do machines, they will have the ability to experience profound and sustained joy. To harness the intelligence of their own life force, people should tap into the wisdom of yoga and its time-tested principles.
Yoga is a reliable method people can use to get in touch with their own transcendent and divine natures. He began practicing yoga when he was 12 years old and living in Mysore, India. We read every chapter, identify the key takeaways and analyze them for your convenience. Visit our website at instaread. This quote by Sadhguruperfectly encapsulates our theme for the month of love.

Nothing can bring you closer to yourself than spirituality. How to be spiritual? What is spirituality in the true sense? We decided to learn this from the expert himself. We are extremely delighted to feature yogi, mystic, and author, Sadhguru in the February issue of the Storizen Magazine.
Check out the exclusive coverage on page 8! Four men were walking in the forest. The first was a gnana yogi, the second was a bhakti yogi, the third was a karma yogi, and the fourth was a kriya yogi. Usually, these four people can never be together. The gnana yogi has total disdain for all other types of yoga.
They look like a bunch of idiots to him. But a bhakti yogi, a devotee, thinks all this gnana, karma and kriya yoga is a waste of time. All this mind-splitting philosophy, this bone-bending yoga, is not needed; God is here, because God is everywhere. Then there is the karma yogi, the man of action. He thinks all the other types of yogis, with their fancy philosophies, are just lazy.
But a kriya yogi is the most disdainful of all. He laughs at everyone. There will be no transformation. But today they happened to be walking together in the forest and a storm broke out. It grew very intense and began raining heavily. They started running, looking for shelter.
The bhakti yogi, the devotion man, said, "In this direction there is an ancient temple. They all ran in that direction. They came to an ancient temple.
All the walls had crumbled long ago; just the roof and four columns remained. They rushed into the temple; not out of love for God, but just to escape the rain. There was a deity in the center. They ran towards it. The rain was lashing down from every direction. There was no other place to go, so they moved closer and closer.
Finally, there was no alternative. They just hugged the deity and sat down. The moment these four people hugged the idol, there was a huge fifth presence. Suddenly, God appeared. In all their four minds the same question arose: Why now? Right now, for most people, these dimensions are aligned in different directions. Your mind is thinking and feeling one way, your physical body is going another way, your energy another way.
Yoga is simply the science of aligning these three dimensions. When we say "yoga", for many of you it probably means some impossible physical postures. That is not what we are referring to here. Yoga simply means to be in perfect tune. When you are in yoga, your body, mind and energy and existence are in absolute harmony. When your body and mind are in a relaxed state and at a certain level of blissfulness, you can be free of so many nagging ailments. Let us say, you go and sit in your office with a nagging headache.
Your headache is not a major disease, but just that throbbing could take away some of your enthusiasm for work and perhaps some of your capability for that day. But with the practice of yoga, your body and mind can be kept at the highest possible peak.
To attain to that unity within you, there are many ways. For example, there is hatha yoga. Hatha yoga means you start with the body. The body itself has its own attitudes, its own ego, its own nature. Apart from your mind, do you see, your body has its own ego?
The alarm rings. So we start with the body. Hatha yoga is a way of working with the body, disciplining the body, purifying the body, and preparing the body for higher levels of energy. All of us are alive, all of us are human beings. But all of us do not experience life to the same intensity because our pranic energies are not the same.
Different people experience life in different levels of intensity. For example, someone sees a tree. A tree is just a tree. Somebody sees the tree in more detail. An artist sees every shade of it.
