All language subtitles for 4,1 Being Playful Is the Most Responsible Thing You Can Do

Being playful always has been understood
as irresponsibility, right from your

childhood and probably to your children
also, you're doing this if they're just

playful, you think it's irresponsible.

The most responsible way to live is that

you're playful with life.

It's absolutely irresponsible to carry a

long face and walk around in this planet.

Yes or no?

Isn't it absolutely irresponsible to walk
around with misery?

Yes, That's the most irresponsible thing
you can do.

So being playful is not irresponsibility.

Being playful is being very responsible

and responsive to life.

Only when you're playful, you can do

that. When you're serious, the world doesn't

exist for you and your nonsense.

Yes, when you're serious, it's just about

you and your nonsense.

The world and other life does not exist

for you only when you are playful, you
can pay attention to everything.

You can truly respond to everything in
the world only if you're playful.

Otherwise, you cannot just the burden of
it will kill you.

So playfulness is not a philosophy that
you have to develop.

I'm going to be playful i'm going to be
playful.

No science is telling you the whole
existence is just a dense advantage.

Looks like the forces that create this
existence are always playful.

Always in this culture, creation has been
described as God's play.

When they said God's play, many thinking
people thought, oh, that fool is playing

with my life that's why all this misery.

The forces of creation are constantly at

play. If they stop playing, you're finished.

Yes, all the basic forces in this within
the body itself, they must be playing

with full vigor.

Only then everything is nice.

If they stop playing, or if they refuse
to play, you're done.

You're over.

So playfulness, not just in your

attitudes. This is not your attitude.

This is the attitude of the creator.

This is the attitude of the creation.

If you are in tune with the creation and
the creator, being playful is very

natural. Only when you are not in tune with that,

somewhere you are totally enslaved by the
process of your mind, your thought, your

opinions, your ideologies, your rights
and wrongs, your moralities.

Then only you lost your playfulness.

If you're in line with life, if you're in

line with creation or creator, you would
naturally be playful.

You have started ignoring the larger
creation and become too attached to your

petty creation, which is happening here.

That is why all playfulness is gone.

If you're in line with the larger
creation, there is no other way to be you

will be playful, and only if one is
playful.

Such a person can truly grapple with the
problems in the world without being

affected by it, and do his best about it.

If he doesn't know how to be playful,

those problems will just eat him up.

The problems that exist in the world are

not simple.
Yes, If you try to grapple with them

without the necessary playfulness in you
don't ever think you're going to solve

the problem.
You will just get gobbled up by the

problem. That's all that'll happen.

It has eaten up any number of people,
isn't it so any number of people with

good intentions has it not swallowed HM?
Has it not swallowed the problems of the

world?
Any number of people with very good

intentions have just been licked up by
the existing situations.

You can only handle them if you're truly
playful, otherwise everything will be

troubled. If you maintain just a few hours of

playfulness in a day about what you're
doing, you will see even your physical

body will start functioning so much
better.

Your sleep quota will come down, and
meditation becomes a natural process for

one who is playful.

Because the moment you're playful, you

are not entangled with the things that
you're doing.

Once you're not entangled with it, you're
not accumulating karma, you're doing

yoga. The process of living is not entangling

the process of living has become
liberating.

So you are no more doing karma.

You're doing yoga with the activity that

you perform.
Once you're doing yoga through the day,

definitely everything should get better,
isn't it?

For a beginner who is not yet
accomplished, the activity is necessary

and if you don't make the activity
playful, activity is killing always, no

matter what is the type of activity.

There are different ways of passing

through a situation, you know.

Mahabharat is a tremendous statement on

this how different human beings pass
through the same situations.

Almost everything that Krishna is going
through on a smaller scale, people around

him are going through how they go through
it and how he goes through it.

How different types of people go through
it, same situations.

Mahabharat is a tremendous document on
that.

How different types of people of
different levels of consciousness exist

and go through the same situations.

When there is some problem, you're

traveling outside or you're in the
office, some problem arises if there are

10 people, how these ten different people
experience this little problem that's

come up hm one person will pull his hair
and freak out.

Another person will pounce on somebody
else.

Another person bangs his head, another
person looking what he can do you see

this thing happen?
Same given situation.

So fundamentally, that's what Mahabharati
is, that there are all types of people,

good people, bad people, outright evil,
absolutely virtuous, various types of

people. If you look at it, every kind of human

being that you can find in any society,
they're all there in Habat.

A whole range of people.

Greedy ones, absolutely selfless ones,

fearful ones, brave ones, valiant
warriors covers, every kind are there and

they're all being put through a whole
intense drama.

And you look at each one's experience
very different and the way he handles

this is very different and where he lands
up in the end is very different.

Through this whole drama, of all the
people, Krishna is going through the

maximum amount of drama but untouched
because he said yoga's the haakuru

karmani. That means first establishing yoga and

then act.
If you act without establishing yourself

in yoga, then your action will become an
entanglement it doesn't matter what

you're doing, simple things that people
take up to do in their life.

After all, for most of the people, 95 %
of the people in the world, all that they

have taken a piece just to earn something
for their survival, procreate, bring up

their children.
That's it just for the small drama that

they have picked up for themselves.

They wanted it.

A little business or a job, A home, wife,
children, husband.

This is it.

To manage this where they end up many of

them end up in the inside.

Insane asylums too, just doing the simple

job, isn't it so yes, they have not taken
up the problems of the world.

They don't want big Dharma Guptas wanting
to establish Dharma in the world.

No such great responsibility they have
taken up just to earn their living,

survive, procreate and die.

Which every creature on the planet does

for that see where people are ending up.

How many people are ending up total nuts?

How many people are halfway down there?
Yes, too many people, isn't it?

It is taking an unusually heavy toll.

Simple life process.

It is not necessary this way, but
unfortunately it does go that way for

many people simply because there is no
playfulness in their way of existence.

There is no playfulness in the way they
live.

They are too dead serious now.

These two things look contradictory.

On one level we're talking about
intensity of passion, devotion.

Another level, playfulness that's the
whole thing.

If it's passion, you must burn with it.

If you are half hearted, you will not

know what it is just tortures you will
not the benefit you will not know the

benefit of it.

You really have to burn, otherwise you

will not know what it is at all.

If you want to walk the path of devotion

and you also want to save yourself, it
doesn't work.

The idea of devotion, the idea of
choosing the path of passion is that you

want to burn up everything that is you so
that only that which you're passionate

about Oregon devote about exists within
you.

What you call as myself is burnt up in
the simple process.

It is for a thinking mind.

This looks like self-destructive but

unless you're willing to burn up the
limited, another possibility never arises

within year.

If really the other possibility has to

touch you really have to burn.
