“It is a limited mind that knows frustration because the limited mind works out of expectations—false expectations. When your expectations are not in line with life as such, or when they are fanciful psychology and not life phenomenal, then when they don’t get fulfilled, the mind feels this is the end of the world.” – Sadhguru
“It is not a question of how much you can do or cannot do; if you, in every step, in every breath, in every activity that you do—if you make this a part of your life, if you exude love in every little thing that you do, then it will show that you care. It is not that you have to do something in particular; you truly bring this into your heart—that you really care for everything around you. Then, naturally, everything around you responds to you in the best possible way.” – Sadhguru
“Workplaces have become hugely taxing on human beings because people are working against each other and everyone is working for himself. If we do not bring humanity into everything that we do, then what is the point of living here? Or, a fundamental question is: do you want to be a full-time human being or a part-time human being? If you are a full-time human being, you will manage to your fullest capability.” – Sadhguru
“Yoga means to cultivate your energy in such a way that gradually it breaks the physical limitations and elevates you to the highest level of awareness—the flowering of human potential.” – Sadhguru
“You should have built your personality very consciously, but unfortunately, for most people, over 90% of their personality is built unconsciously. It is molded by the situations in which they are living and being exposed to. If one becomes truly meditative, one of the basic qualities of meditation is that it creates a distance between you and your personality, and then you can make your personality as necessary for a particular situation.” – Sadhguru
“If the situations are making you, then you are not a manager of your life. Maybe you are a manager in a company; but you are not a manager of your life. You must be the manager of your own life first. Be the manager of your own mind, your own body, and your own personality. Only then can you manage other people effortlessly.” – Sadhguru
“If you want to be a good leader, you must be able to inspire the best in everybody around you. You cannot inspire people to do their best if you are just talking about give and take all the time. You cannot inspire the best in people if you do not get involved with the people around you. The best way that you can inspire the best in everybody around you is that people should fall in love with you.” – Sadhguru
“So, peacefulness is not happening because of your work, nor is peacefulness being taken away because of your work. You are unable to be peaceful because of the way you are. Your mind is not taking instructions from you, your energy is not taking instructions from you; they are doing their own things.” – Sadhguru
“If the process of work has led you to a point of distress in your life, it’s time you looked inward to see what you could do about your interiority. As there is technology to create outside situations the way we want them—to engineer the world the way we want it or the way we feel is convenient and comfortable for us—there is technology and science to create an inner situation the way you want it.” – Sadhguru
“Your body, your mind, your emotions, and your energies—these are the vehicles through which you are traveling through life. Without any understanding about it, without any control about it, without any subjective experience about it, you’re trying to live your life. But it is an accidental existence.” – Sadhguru
“Joy is not a thing that is found outside; it’s your inherent nature.” – Sadhguru
“The way you think is the way you become. The whole mess of your mind can be changed just by the way you think.” – Sadhguru
“If you don’t invest your life in what you really care for, your life will be wasted. You will not fly—you will just drag yourself through life.” – Sadhguru
“People think confidence is a kind of substitute for clarity—it is not.” – Sadhguru
“Your understanding of love has to evolve. You always think love means to hold. No, love means to liberate and push forth.” – Sadhguru
“If you can run your life without the offer of heaven, you are on the path.” – Sadhguru
“You cross the limits of madness, and then you become perfectly sane. You are born with madness—the karma itself is madness.” – Sadhguru
“Searching for truth is itself a big illusion because whatever we term “the truth” is always and everywhere.” – Sadhguru
“Trying to fix health from outside is a very effortful process. If you keep access to the innermost core, health will be a natural phenomenon.” – Sadhguru
“Do not wait until you explode into states of rage. Rage happens because you exclude others. Rage does not exist when you are inclusive.” – Sadhguru
