On one level, in one way, the spiritual process means to become like a mountain

stable still, because it's only when somebody has a very stable base, many

things can be done.

Exuberance of life is possible only if

there is absolute stability, otherwise exuberance will lead to madness.

That's why a lot of people who are a little creative, little active, little

exuberant, always end up being freaky and nearly insane.

Because without stability you cannot have a dance going.

Shiva means stillness shiva means dance at the same time.

Either you see him sitting absolutely still or you see him in an explosion of

dance, because an explosion is possible only when there is a stable base.

An explosion which is not destructive is possible only when there is stability and

stability. People try to become stable by

controlling and trimming their lives.

This is the way your grandmother would

tell you how to be stable.

Control yourself, then you will be

stable. Yes, if you're dead, you will be stable.

I promise you that.

So normally people who talk about

stability are all constipated existence.

You know what's Constipation?

That means it happens little by little.

Their joy, their love, their ecstasy,

happens little by little here and there.

That's Constipation. So stability is not

because you have trimmed your life down or pruned it down to minimal and you're

stable. That's of no consequence.

Stability because you see everything utterly clearly.

That is why when we say adiyogi, we're talking about stability at the same time,

an exuberant dance.

This is possible only because he has more

than two eyes, not necessarily three.

More than two.

That means he sees much more than most people ever see, because he sees much

more able to be stable.

If you see only one part of it, you

cannot be stable.

So the entire effort is to see better

Darshan saying, you know, the entire culture has always been talking about you

go to temple not for sending petitions but for darshan to see, to see better.

Fundamentally why people are not able to see what is there with life.

It is simply because identifications with so many things, starting with the body,

the identifications have gone into so many things.

The moment you identify with something, your entire mind understands that it

needs to be protected.

My hands just works for that.

So how do I break my national identity, my religious identity, my racial identity

you don't have to go like this.

If you break your identification with

your own body, it's gone.

Everything is gone because everything is

rooted in that.

Everything is just an amplification of

your identification with the limited boundaries of your own body.

The moment you get identified with this, rest of the identification is only

multiplication, and it multiplies pretty rapidly.

The more successful you are with whatever you're doing, you will multiply much

faster and you will be able to see less and less as your identities grow.

The drama, the psychological drama, the racist encrescendo won't allow you to see

anything. Your own thoughts and emotions will drown

you. Unfortunately, the world has been

constantly been pushing people to believe that what's happening in your mind is

very important. I've been trying to convince the world

what's happening in your mind it's just trash.

No sadhguru, I'm thinking about God that is also trash.

Maybe a bit holy trash, but still trash.

Because in your mind, God cannot come,

Devil cannot come, angels cannot come, only thoughts come.

It's a fool who identifies one thought as sacred, another thought as something

else. Thought means something that's not real

right now. Thought means old garbage is festering in

your mind.

You need to think to survive about this

and that. You don't need to think to explore

something new. You don't need to think to become

enlightened, because what will you think? You will only think the past data which

is head in your head in many different ways maybe how many varieties of

expressions your rubbish finds is of no value to life, may be socially there is

some value in some places when I go internationally, people are saying he's a

thought leader, no thought in my so seeing clearly, seeing everything, that

your vision is not obstructed by yourself.

If this one thing happens, stability will happen.

Exuberance you don't have to worry because that's a natural.

That's the nature of life itself.

Everything is exuberant stability it

takes to allow exuberance to happen.

Otherwise, you keep curtailing your

exuberance because it hurts when it's out of balance.

If you're out of balance and you move at a certain speed, you're going to hurt

yourself. Whether you're riding a bicycle or you're

riding the cosmos, if you're out of balance and you attain speed, you're

going to hurt yourself very badly.

So balance is very important, and balance

that comes out of curtailment is not balanced that's, you know, package death.

Yes, you package death in a certain way, and it looks very decent and dignified

because dead are always very dignified have you seen this?

They never did anything in decent, did they?

So essentially everything is rooted in the clarity of vision, and that'll not

come unless there's some distance between what is me and what is my body.

If this distance is not there, then multiplication of identities will just is

an inevitable consequence.
