Sorry to be so off topic but does anyone know of a method to log back into an Instagram account? I was stupid forgot the login password. I would love any assistance you can offer me.
I love you for the extraordinary, generous nature of your philosophy. I can’t even begin to express the profound impact that your shared wisdom has had on me over the past few years. It truly means the world to me and I can’t thank you enough. There’s no one I look up to more. Also thank you soo sooo muchhhh for introducing me to Anthony de Mello! Pure profundity!
Time and time again I come back to this. Every year that I listen to it, I understand it better. One of the greatest recorded 30 mins contents on the internet.
But then again, you still can't renounce everything, so everyone will have desires and needs, even though we realize that it puts us in the vulnerable position, we can't eliminate it.
The same truth the sages over the ages had tried to inculcate in us albeit in different language ! Happiness lies within us. The more we depend on the outer world for happiness the unhappier we emerge! Thanks ,Sir, for such wonderful discourse ! Let all try to master this skill to be blissful eternally !
The ego isn't dissolved or removed somehow, you just cease to identify with it. You see that the belief in a separate self was just an illusion. And without self there is no "other", and that's the realisation of non-duality.
All of what you are saying has happened to me, when I stopped smoking weed, drinking I lost a lot of friends. Less people viewed me as fun(girls dudes) it’s similar to losing a job or not having money, you lose but at the same time I gained peace of mind, people can’t understand why I’m less angry less paranoid less inner struggle. 🙂
“Every time I meet a prostitute, she wants to talk about God and every time I meet a priest, he wants to talk about sex." ~ Osho “Whatever it is that you deny yourself will become your new prison." ~ Naval
@@jazzyj2899 He wants to become the sage of capitalism. If you go on Twitter and say something that disagrees with him, he will block you. He’s not as wise as he wants you to think. That’s why the beginning of this video talks about not holding him accountable for the words, but for the feeling behind them.
@@CyanCooper what does he gain from being that sage? I thought he was just sharing his knowledge. i think he admits once in this interview that he has his fault of wanting fame, therefore is no enlightened being himself.
The idea of how you become more silent when you get closer to the truth is very true for me. It's like something I always say... the deepest realities of this earth are very painful.
"Peace is happiness at rest; happiness is peace in motion" I like to think of this like: 1. Peace is happiness at rest = Calm Lake (tranquil without external stimuli) 2. Happiness is peace in motion = Flowing river (the same calm lake now flowing as a river bringing life and energy wherever it goes)
Hey Naval, thank for posting this. It gets a little tougher to begin with, in the pursuit to understand/find happiness and stay happy, alongside pursuing a startup dream. This comes at the right time. Keep them coming. Thanks Naval, once again.
Naval, Lot of what you said is in correlation with J.Krishnamurti's words. He is all about Brain and how each brain sees the world and get influenced. I love this.Thanks.
03:26 The podcast discusses practical philosophy for health, wealth, and happiness. 06:52 Happiness is a skill that can be learned and developed. 10:18 Happiness is not a permanent state and cannot be obtained through material possessions. It is a process of self-discovery and understanding. 13:44 Being a happier person and having a peaceful mind can enhance decision-making and increase effectiveness. 17:10 Through pure knowledge, we can achieve happiness and increase our decision-making capability. 20:36 Finding peace from the mind is the ultimate pursuit of happiness. 24:02 The goal is peace, and understanding leads to peace. 27:23 Money and education are societal lies; truth-seeking leads to peace.

Very true, a lot of people avoid these universal questions. When I keep asking questions and 🔦 searching, throwing spotlights. Very good podcast (lots and lots of wisdom)
Dear Naval, thank you so much for your podcast. It has made a tremendous & positive impact on my life since I first discovered you via JRE. I ❤ your video on "Happiness." Please continue to talk more on the "Meaning of Life." God bless you! Your knowledge and wisdom is priceless & always appreciated! 🙏👏🏻👏🏻🙌🏻❤🧠👌🏻
I want to take a moment to thank you for the amazing work you are doing... Taking a fair amount of time to create such good content and educate people. Mostly, I use your podcasts to attend to my anxieties. I have to admit that it helped me a lot.... Big fan of your work brother❤
Hi Naval, This is the first podcast of yours I have watched fully, incredible insights. I'd love to have a conversation with you one day. Thank you for sharing
“The pursuit of pleasure leads to addiction in a time of abundance” Very easy for us to be pleasureful today - drugs, porn, social media, video games, etc. When you consistently use those things, and see the high they bring, it shows you the misery of the everyday world around you If you ask people who drink a lot what events they look forward to the most it’s probably events when they can drink If they go to the event and don’t drink, they’ll probably hate it/the convo/ the people/ etc. Breaking the addiction forces you to break the cycle and face the root problem. In that case, you’re drinking because you need better friends Breaking this cycle is hard because it’s socially unacceptable, and you might need to form new friends, habits, etc,
Read tiny habits and hooked. Those two books are written by BEHAVIOR DESIGN architects from Stanford who basically train the entire Silicon Valley ecosystem
He simply has read a lot and seen and experienced a lot and is very thoughtful about his life. Anyone can do it if they are aware enough..His wisdom is a mix of many different ancient philosophers adapted to the modern world and in his own voice..
💪💛😁 Save yourself *28 Years* of stumbling just by listening to these *28 Minutes !* 1. Get Wealthy - income comes in to cover all expenses while your sleeping ... next 2. Get Physically Healthy ... next 3. Get Peace from Mind trust me, this sequence is correct. I was doing the reverse order & now i am following naval's sequence I can see now that my previous life was in denial of #1 by doing that I was less powerful I want & need to be as powerful as I can be 😆
After going through a ton of self-help stuff, including this, I think I've realized that I'm already happy and at peace. Now I'm going to go through an addiction, overcome it, and then brag about it, lol.
@@sp123 Got addicted to black tar. It tore my life, family and finances apart. It took me 8 long months to finally get clean but I did it. Before I got addicted my IQ was at around 105, while I was hooked I was at 98 or so, and afterwards my IQ shot up to 140. I just said this as a joke but it actually works. I'm going to try something else to see if it works several times.
Just WoW man! You answered questions for me i didn't had in the first place. I appreciate you sharing your wisdom with us. And i promise i will do the same in the future.
Happiness is control and peace. Suffering is no control and desire. Health is more important than Wealth. Wealth is financial freedom and passive income. Meditation helps you control your anger and sadness then you become calm to think with focus.
These ideas and this presentation is something I've been looking for. This is truly amazing! I think I'm going to type/write the transcript to kinda absorb more here.
In modern age the quality of decision making, matters... Increase in effectiveness is what matters... Stress is always under your control The goal isn't happiness the goal is peace. You can't work towards peace. You can understand it...
Free Yourself from it by doing it. Physical Health. Don't fixate on one defination. Happiness 1. In your control than physical potential 2. Much more malleable 3. Its a skill, slowly will give results, can be 4. Desire is a controact to be miserable untill you get it. Delusion. 5. Procees of understanding, self discovery
What about: Happiness is a state of being that express itself when everything in your life is in order. As, The only idea of wanting or pursue of Happiness is a losing game to play.
You can get health, wealth and happiness same time.. if you understand that you will be happy because you will find harmony in your life. But life without believing is lifeless..

"When you want to be happy you want peace. A lot of times we say Peace of Mind but what we really want is Peace from Mind."
@@amitj10 I get satisfied from working as little as possible
@@amitj10 writing youtube comments
@@amitj10 Idts. Happiness is being at peace even if you're not satisfied with the outcome.
Thank u
Well said
"your'e unhappy because you're too smart, but if you're so smart why aren't you happy?" I will hold on to that one ty
Did you find the answer ?
I dont know why this man dont have 300 milion subs, but anyway im glad i found this ( amazing stuff)
I love you for the extraordinary, generous nature of your philosophy. I can’t even begin to express the profound impact that your shared wisdom has had on me over the past few years. It truly means the world to me and I can’t thank you enough. There’s no one I look up to more.
Also thank you soo sooo muchhhh for introducing me to Anthony de Mello!
Pure profundity!
I don't even know how many times I have listened to this thing but I still hear something new and wonderfu. This is amazing
Yeah
Time and time again I come back to this. Every year that I listen to it, I understand it better. One of the greatest recorded 30 mins contents on the internet.
He has an amazing way of simplifying complex philosophical topics. His analogies are brilliant.
I agree, Its deep and easy to understand.
"Desire is a contract you make with yourself to to be unhappy until you get what you want."
6:36
the grass is green
"Desire is a contract you make with yourself to be unhappy until you get what you want."
obviouslyy
But then again, you still can't renounce everything, so everyone will have desires and needs, even though we realize that it puts us in the vulnerable position, we can't eliminate it.
@@AdilMaidanov I think that was the point Naval was making
These podcasts are fundamentally changing my life. Thank you.
When we discover Naval first, we recommend it to everyone, when we understand his wisdom better, we stop doing that.
Oh I'm at discovery phase then
The same truth the sages over the ages had tried to inculcate in us albeit in different language ! Happiness lies within us. The more we depend on the outer world for happiness the unhappier we emerge! Thanks ,Sir, for such wonderful discourse ! Let all try to master this skill to be blissful eternally !
The key to truth is disolve your ego. That is why Spirituality is the science to theorically and practically disolver your ego.
Sufism
Everything in its place ..
The ego isn't dissolved or removed somehow, you just cease to identify with it. You see that the belief in a separate self was just an illusion. And without self there is no "other", and that's the realisation of non-duality.

Peace is happiness at rest. Happiness is peace in motion.
“Every time I meet a prostitute, she wants to talk about God and every time I meet a priest, he wants to talk about sex." ~ Osho
“Whatever it is that you deny yourself will become your new prison." ~ Naval
This isn't true. It's an agenda parading as wisdom.
@@CyanCooper what do you think is the agenda?
@@jazzyj2899 He wants to become the sage of capitalism. If you go on Twitter and say something that disagrees with him, he will block you. He’s not as wise as he wants you to think.

I wonder what does he means with this
The idea of how you become more silent when you get closer to the truth is very true for me.
It's like something I always say...
the deepest realities of this earth are very painful.
I felt compelled to slowdown the playback such that I grasp every detail.
And then I watched it again.
Coming back to this after 20 or more listens over the years. Always find new value
"Peace is happiness at rest; happiness is peace in motion"
I like to think of this like:
1. Peace is happiness at rest = Calm Lake (tranquil without external stimuli)
2. Happiness is peace in motion = Flowing river (the same calm lake now flowing as a river bringing life and energy wherever it goes)

You make me feel so humbled. Love from Northeast India.

Great talk

😂😂exactly
“Bear on a unicycle”
Dear Naval, thank you so much for your podcast. It has made a tremendous & positive impact on my life since I first discovered you via JRE. I ❤ your video on "Happiness." Please continue to talk more on the "Meaning of Life." God bless you! Your knowledge and wisdom is priceless & always appreciated! 🙏👏🏻👏🏻🙌🏻❤🧠👌🏻
Imagine learning this as a kid. Goldmine of knowledge. Very greatfull 🤗
Naval thanks for always sharing your wisdom. Blessings to you and your family!
Every single minute is full of wisdom.
Sure we can contemplate these things. Very useful. Useful as well to meditate and do self-inquiry.
This podcast speaks to me. Every word of it. These are pure gold Naval..
I want to take a moment to thank you for the amazing work you are doing... Taking a fair amount of time to create such good content and educate people.
Mostly, I use your podcasts to attend to my anxieties. I have to admit that it helped me a lot.... Big fan of your work brother❤
Hi Naval,
This is the first podcast of yours I have watched fully, incredible insights. I'd love to have a conversation with you one day. Thank you for sharing
For that get out of PupG first
“The pursuit of pleasure leads to addiction in a time of abundance”
Very easy for us to be pleasureful today - drugs, porn, social media, video games, etc.
When you consistently use those things, and see the high they bring, it shows you the misery of the everyday world around you
If you ask people who drink a lot what events they look forward to the most it’s probably events when they can drink
If they go to the event and don’t drink, they’ll probably hate it/the convo/ the people/ etc.
Breaking the addiction forces you to break the cycle and face the root problem. In that case, you’re drinking because you need better friends
Breaking this cycle is hard because it’s socially unacceptable, and you might need to form new friends, habits, etc,
धन्यवाद !
The thing about addiction just blown my mind from now onwards I will try to understand the addiction.
That part hit me pretty hard as well. Have to reflect on a few bad habits
Timing
Read tiny habits and hooked. Those two books are written by BEHAVIOR DESIGN architects from Stanford who basically train the entire Silicon Valley ecosystem
Bonus points to read shoshana zuboff and jaron lanier’s reasons why
This is more than pure gold...
No words for Naval. How he could know these stuff! He is super genius. He is monk.
He simply has read a lot and seen and experienced a lot and is very thoughtful about his life. Anyone can do it if they are aware enough..His wisdom is a mix of many different ancient philosophers adapted to the modern world and in his own voice..
@@ginamok8373 Absolutely!
This podcast is full of GEMS🙌🏾 Thank you so much
Each sentence you speak gives a thousand things to think about!
This man is a genius.
It's in the remembrance of God, the creator of our soul that we can get PEACE
Thank you Naval.Just recently I read your book 'The Almanack'
Top notch,eye opening and thoughtful content Naval. Multiple perspectives give clarity. Your best video. Happy to listen repeatedly.
Naval knows what he is saying.
i found this channel and found the real purpose of my life :) thank you so much Naval !!
Been watching the Joe Rogan 'Happiness' video with Naval... But this one is next level.... Game changer❤️💯👌
happiness is having good friends and and a good partner.
💪💛😁 Save yourself *28 Years* of stumbling just by listening to these *28 Minutes !*
1. Get Wealthy - income comes in to cover
all expenses while your sleeping ... next
2. Get Physically Healthy ... next
3. Get Peace from Mind
trust me, this sequence is correct. I was doing the reverse order & now i am following naval's sequence
I can see now that my previous life was in denial of #1
by doing that I was less powerful
I want & need to be as powerful as I can be 😆
Same with me, I was also following the reverse sequence atleast for the past year and now I need to cover up.
Naval is our generation's Buddha, He is awake.
I agree. I was thinking this as well, especially when he brought up OSHO. He was also ahead of his time.
The path to peace is truth ❤
NAVAL i really appreciate your wisdom. Been listening to your stuff... please release more of this, it really is valuable 🙏
Absolutely love this channel, such a gem.
The truth will set you free
I recommend everyone to listen to this particular podcast, very good stuff Naval, thanks a lot.
After going through a ton of self-help stuff, including this, I think I've realized that I'm already happy and at peace. Now I'm going to go through an addiction, overcome it, and then brag about it, lol.
Did you do it?
@@sp123 Got addicted to black tar. It tore my life, family and finances apart. It took me 8 long months to finally get clean but I did it. Before I got addicted my IQ was at around 105, while I was hooked I was at 98 or so, and afterwards my IQ shot up to 140.
I just said this as a joke but it actually works. I'm going to try something else to see if it works several times.
The Peace.....being free from everything...... if just for one moment.
Just WoW man! You answered questions for me i didn't had in the first place. I appreciate you sharing your wisdom with us. And i promise i will do the same in the future.
Ah yes! Feed my smol pp brain, Naval.
Love every single insightful word naval said here,...
Thank you so much Naval
The path towards peace is truth.
Search it for yourself.
Happiness is control and peace.
Suffering is no control and desire.
Health is more important than Wealth.
Wealth is financial freedom and passive income.
Meditation helps you control your anger and sadness then you become calm to think with focus.
These ideas and this presentation is something I've been looking for. This is truly amazing! I think I'm going to type/write the transcript to kinda absorb more here.
Did you write it and can I have it 😊?
"Every prostitute wants to talk about god and every priest wants to talk abt sex"
Nicely said...Vedic wisdom ❤
The path to peace is truth
Truth brings about peace
Incredible podcast!! Thanks for sharing this knowledge and wisdom!
Thank you Naval! I sincerely appreciate the content
What a brilliant episode Naval. Thank you!
Naval dropping gems lately.
In modern age the quality of decision making, matters...
Increase in effectiveness is what matters...
Stress is always under your control
The goal isn't happiness the goal is peace. You can't work towards peace. You can understand it...
Yes! Glad you made these longer
The truth is when you start journey of being happy that is the day you get sensation of being sad because you dig deep down what makes you sad....
This is liquid gold
Free Yourself from it by doing it.
Physical Health.
Don't fixate on one defination.
Happiness
1. In your control than physical potential
2. Much more malleable
3. Its a skill, slowly will give results, can be
4. Desire is a controact to be miserable untill you get it. Delusion.
5. Procees of understanding, self discovery
Happiness is being in the state of content.
just thanks for existing
Happiness = listening to Naval's Podcast
One of the best things I ever heard
Really deep and super relevant, thank you for sharing
Wow! Thank you I have been looking for this!
This is just brilliant insights. Thank you naval for this.
What about: Happiness is a state of being that express itself when everything in your life is in order.
As, The only idea of wanting or pursue of Happiness is a losing game to play.
Brilliant! Thank you, Naval.
Happiness = Acceptance - Desires
IN ORDER TO BE HAPPY ONE HAS TO BE HEALTHY!
IN ORDER TO BE HEALTHY ONE HAS TO BE HAPPY!
You can get health, wealth and happiness same time.. if you understand that you will be happy because you will find harmony in your life. But life without believing is lifeless..
Can’t #
Thank You Naval.
Happiness is not a state of being, it's a byproduct of Action.
Thank you for dropping your wisdom!
See something strong enough, Just go and see.(like going to hospitals,drug rehab etc..)
Very helpful. Well done thank you ❤
