  1. yes he was one of he only ones, I discovered him after discovering Sadhguru, but who else really... On the intellectual level, Osho and Sadhguru are similar, but that is where the similarity ends..totally different mystics!!
  2. but no body does,, I do see now some mentioning it, but the video I posted is from early 2000's no one back then was talking this way, and no one back in the early days like 80's or 90's was, at least in my research and I researched allot...not saying others haven't but it was not very popular... also simple is good, it gets things going, ,What he is saying, as well with Acceptance, and the fact that this moment is inevitable, this is the foundation, the willingness is created, the ability to see the mechanics of life is there, so that the kriya is more powerful and works more effectively for the person using it...
  3. totally disagree, plus I forgot to mention doesn't he use drugs on a regular basis to have advanced experiences? Why do that if Your so advanced mentally as You say,,No no, he's had some awakenings some how, like to write about it and share, for me he has no more credibility than any other, compared to ppl like Sadhguru who's high naturally, no comparison... Lol I luv how ppl say "If You don't see it the way I see it then your below me." lol... so egoic, and you think You know things???
  4. I read all the self help books, I never read anything like this before I heard him say it like he does,,so not sure what Your talking about...
  5. This is the whole point of Sadhguru exposing this stuff, like Response Ability, most never even think of it this way, when I first watched this I was totally blown away by it, I never imagined or thought about this like he stated it, so that was transformative for me in a big way, and I had lots of self help research under my belt, read lots of self help books and audios and such, but this idea that I can respond to life rather than react, and via responding life becomes more unlimited if I respond to everything intensely, that lit it up for me... Breakingthewall is too volatile to have a blog or books, he has some good insights for sure, is a realist, but too obsessed with it intellectualy, he's on here daily for hours, not healthy at all...
  6. he didn't bring me joy, joy is always within me, he only showed me a method that wipes away the crap so the Joy is naturally experienced/expressed... If You think what he is is all about Utube videos, then You don't know what he is... and no You cannot do that stuff to, if You could you would and you haven't..
  7. If I were to rank them it would look like this and with reasons why, not just because I supposedly "Like" someone... 1) Sadhguru -a) he has more follower/disciples/devotees/those interested in him than any one else most ever, b) he is alive today and relevant today, c) consecrates and develops/creates temples from scratch, d) interacts with a variety of ppl, from scientist to policticans/business leaders, to everyday ppl, you name it, e) his methods are super effective, once You try them they work f) he's logically correct! 2) Buddha - created a path that has enlightened many many ppl and has improved/changed/transformed many ppl, anyone that was alive that many years ago and is talked about and known today did something extraordinary... 3) Jesus - similar to Buddha, had a huge impact on the world, but is gone now in physical form and many things that are now said to be him or what he did may or may not be true, humans have distorted so many things over time in regards to Jesus or Christianity so who knows, but Luv they Neighbour is good advice!! 4) Osho - Intellectually realized, created a character of controversy/drama to popularize himself so he can get more followers and thus change the world we live in, very logically correct, not sure about the methods he shared, there never really talked about but he was very wise and knowing!!
  8. No, I would not want to live enternally, not in the present day environment, having to deal with unconscious ppl, the economic system and just everything about the culture, generally I dislike it, we could do so much better than how we are doing it now, so No, plus when the body gets older it just is not what it used to be, get ready for some part of Your body to be hurting most of the time, I'm in my mid 50's now, I've worked out, did martial arts and yoga and stretching all sorts of health releated empowerments, my back troubles me, knees are getting older, and such, so no matter what You do mostly the body starts to break down eventually, but even if I had an eternally young body, I wouldn't want to live forever, even if I was Blissful in nature, as that too gets boring too they say:) Humans are meant to evolve Spiritually sooner or later, You lose physicality and mental capacity and friends family as You age, because this is natures way of bringing focus on our Inner Nature, once You do that, then Life is fixed and You will go back to Absolute after physical death..so this is how it works as I understand it...
  9. What's worse is that there are ppl out there, and on this forum that will discount this event, since nothing is happening, no one exists and no one is doing anything, a total denial of any meaning or individual experience and consequences, this is much sadder and disempowering than posting about an event and maybe or maybe not making light of it... I didn't get the impression that You were making light of it, the ones I mentioned above, they are making light of it via a belief system that is absolutely incorrect..!
  10. This video address this very topic...this is part of the Inner Engineering course, with the online version, you get access to Q&A video responses that are inline with the topic matter, there are 7 1hr or so video, covering topics via video on the online IE course, Responsibility/Response Ability is one such topic he addressses...
  11. Yes, You know You are doing something right when You have lots of haters, didn't You know this all knowing one??? You've fallen into the trap, just letting You know so You can maybe get out of it before its too late...
  12. whats better? Being Blissful of Your own nature naturally, no matter if Your in a prison cell or walking in a beautiful forest, Your Blissful, that is better than just walking in nature... Nature walks alone won't get You to this place, sitting sadhana can for sure...!
  13. Ok, we have another all knowing here, do You know the others?:) So far what I see in You if full blown Ego overload!
  14. Lol, You as well need to do more research... And I agree with him, we are too many ppl on this planet, with the consumerism and materialist outlook most ppl have, we have too many ppl here, we need 4 planets to supply everyone's current needs and wants if they live like an avg American, and that is where the trend is going, so we are doomed if that happens, so we need less kids being born so less suffer in the future... Sadhguru and his Daughter...
  15. Now Your Projecting... In lots of his talks he asks the crowd of ppl "How often has someone poked a knife in Your body?", he's trying emphasise here that in those situations where there is a "real" reason to suffer, he says its okay, like ppl in warzones, tortured and losing a close family loved one like children, Ive heard him say this many times, but this is not what most ppl are suffering, they are suffering their success, their kids, their educations, they suffering and are traumatized by most anything, and that is where the problem is, they are reacting to life, not responding to life.. You need to do more research!!
  16. You won't know via just watching his videos and reading his books, go visit him and see!! Right now Your just guessing, and for all You know You have an unconscious bias, which is probably the case, I don't know, but You won't know the truth about him until you meet him face to face, and even when that happens You won't know totally...
  17. What ppl do with it is up to them, they can like or dislike as much as they want, they will still look at it and research him, you hate him but are still looking at threads about him and watching his videos, so that is good overall...,
  18. I actually found this aspect of his teaching very helpful, its under the aspect of being Response Able, which I now interpret as having Free Will, Choice, as Humans this is our basic quality and capability, and on a higher up level of existence, it allows Absolute to experience itself in trillions of ways by us having Free Will or the ability to Respond to what is happening within Us, around Us or what has happened before in the past... Trauma is just another way for us to exercise this Free Will. On a Survival level we are built to focus on the negative aspects of what has happened to us, this allows us to develop strategies to become "Wise" and not have to deal with the negatives repeating itself again and again, but we as Humans can live way beyond the Survival Level of Awareness and Life, once You Experience what Responding to Life is vs Reacting, then You gain back Free Will, the ability to determine within this Moment (where Life is) how it is Experienced within Yourself.. So what he says in the video for me is super correct and very Important!
  19. Are Human Beings a "De EVolution" from a higher up Being that is super Conscious and Evolved?? Science and Hinduism Meet Again!!!
  20. Well its a free country, believe it or not You are doing the same in Your own way, we all are, its all a cult, I'm just spreading what I feel is truth, so are You, its all in the range of Potential, Your not wrong, I am not wrong, its just Potential, You chose which Potential to cling on too and go for it, I'll do the same, Karma will reveal what happens! p.s. what is Leo doing on his blogs and video Youtube sharing???
  21. People are focusing too much on the Personality of Sadhguru, he is self creating it for a specific purpose, from what I have heard, in the super advanced programs he is different from the persona You see on Utube and at the lower end programs like Inner Engineering and Bhava Spandana.. Focus on the work, the action being done, the ppl he associates with and the sharing of the methods, now for sure with the amount of ppl that have done the programs some will not find it effective, its just a #'s game, a certain % will find it useless, and He addresses this by saying move on then, but the key is too try it out and to do this You have to be open to it, not come into it right off the bat with a bias based on personality problems...
  22. No enigmas or fantasies here, I've been involved with Isha since 2010, did plenty of research on them, and have done the practices, so its all personal experience, nothing to do with worshipping or looking up or down on someone, he's no threat to me but a welcoming gift that I was able to connect with Isha and Sadhguru.. He's definitely more than just a "Man", his physical feats alone prove that, never mind the mystical stuff!
  23. Maji is western mind thinking, Guru/Disciple relationships threaten Western Mind thinkers, because their Egoic in nature, but in the end this sort of relationship makes things happen faster.. I learned this in Martial Arts, there are too many that learn a little then think they are the Teacher or Guru but are way off base, so I learned from very good Masters and stuck with them for long periods of time, and it was well worth it!
  24. Get back to the basics, Your too full of characters, ego and fantasy stuff brought about things You think You know, and psychedelics I would assume based on what You have shared here.. Go out, deep breaths each morning when You wake up, stretch your arms above Your head at the edge of the bed when You first get up, clean up in the washroom, have a cool shower to wake up and energize, do some asana routine for 15-20min, then get clear, don't have any technology on, just be clear for 5 min the first week of doing this then increase this time span as the weeks go on, in a few months you can be clear at will for an hour easy, then if You are not working get out of the house and walk around, try to enjoy the simple things, the fresh air, the nature, the very fact that your heart is still beating and you can breath and walk and think and do stuff, set up some simple tasks, writing, cooking, cleaning, don't sit around and think yourself to death that is what is killing You.. don't watch videos all day or come here all day, that will make it worse, do some activity, take a nap after lunch, make things simple and relatable again.. Get out of Your head, your too attached to it...
  25. I remember watching this podcast with this guy from Dairy of a CEO and Sadhguru, and this guy is thinking he's a great success but he can't stay away from his phone, he mostly thinks about the past or future, has anxiety and is emotionally floating daily, and Sadhguru just put it out on the table how to BE and this guy thinks he was there already lol...
