"For those who are on the spiritual path, being alone, keeping a distance from people, and becoming silent are not issues - these are opportunities. "-Sadhguru ❤️🙏❤️🙏
🙏🏻I create everything in my life. Everything and-you and the driver in traffic that is slowing me down and everything else. All of it is me. Everything else is entertainment about it. It just is all for me. And there is no mystery about it . I Am every that.
It is a blessings Imagine taking you away from all the attachments, responsibilities n obligations.......universe leading u to the right path.....my opinion
you need to discern the difference in needing to lose people casue there company may contribute to lose yourself. the company you keep becomes the company you are.
And that is the reason some people avoid being alone. Some people do not want to know who they truly are...too hard to face. They rather suffer than working on inner self.
@@fryingpan7180 don't say that you re programming yourself wrong. Jist realise how lucky you are to be alive with yourself be able to do things, create things, imagine, and observe this fascinating universe.
Especially if you don't have to suffer noisy, retarded, scheziphrenic, illiterate, nosey, trouble making, gosepy neighbors! Yeah alone can be blissful. --- in the right environment! 😔
I think it's also a good measure of receptivity to be able to grasp loneliness in the first place, and if we can then learn to dissolve boundaries and find union, then the appreciation is great
I am never lonely. Me myself and I and all the voices in my head are awesome company. Not to forget my motorbike. Yet some suggest I live alone! Indeed big difference!
@@robertholland7558 I agree up too the point of the voices in my head. I am sorry! I got fed up with all that Arguing and Stupidity. So I silenced them. But can someone please help me? It's starting to stink in here. And I can't find a deep enough or Dark enough corner/hole too hide them in.
@@lianaloo5715 helo, im sorry for responding late but I just want u to know that u are included in my prayers. Just let negativity flows into your mind but dont let that control u. Remember that u are responsible of your own decisions. God bless you!
@@ksjbsewjfi23u4oi becoz no one can judge me if Im alone. (oh well, God does, but we know it is a special judge hahaha). I can be at my worst and no one judges me.
I seem to succeed and achieve most goals while I’m alone rather than when I’m with others, not saying that I’m antisocial, but I love keeping my distance. I love God, life, and nature.
For all the people who are watching this I would like to tell you that finally you are on a right track because only you are responsible for your happiness . And if being alone gives you peace And makes you happy just simply try to avoid being with ppl because at the end they will hurt you
As I get older. Being alone had me in more peaceful thinking , see yourself worth and much happier , instead caught up in a messy drama with the wrong crowds !
I'm 100% myself when i am alone and i only surrounded myself with the peoples with whom i can be 100%myself . god,nature and my lovely family .. thats my small circle..and my peacefull life ✨Alhamdulillah✨
You're so correct though. At the very least we need to teach emotional intelligence in schools just discussing how go be mindful and manage stressful emotions and situations can go a long way It's one of the most important subjects in this life and yet so often overlooked
Same here I love it so much. I've been hurt A lot by the people I trusted, cared for, loved with all my heart and soul. Since I've been alone I feel free fresh I feel like a whole house been removed from my back I can breathe again 😊 I'm so free 😤
Keep written, audio and video journals also. I have since age 15, and I am now 79. They are brain and heart dumps for your soul, and so peaceful. Watch travel videos of how high or low, that people are living around the world, and know you are blessed.

Avoid the herd mentality either in person or social media. Limit your time on the phone as well. Suddenly, you realize that you wasted one precious hour of your time. Time management is the key,

Greetings Adam, thank for allowing us into your world. Yes... some people of the world are looking for their self worth in other humans. Continue to let your light so shine Adam. You are appreciated. Peace and Happiness follow you all the days of your life.
That’s a powerful testimony. You actually served the time and you were in a prison and you were liberated from the chains that bind you to the temporal pleasures

I am 47 and I have been a lone wolf for most of my life since I was a boy; and I love my solitude and never feel lonely or bored. All my heroes and role models have been outsiders, renegades and mavericks. As the years have rolled on, the solitude has become more and more peaceful . I have people in my life; a kindly family and cherished friends and some lovers along the way but no one who is consistently by my side from day to day. I would find this a difficult thing to bear and an intrusion. I love the quietude, solitude and sanctity of my home on the beach in Oman in which I live alone and independent. I say my prayers every day and express my gratitude to god that I am neither sky-high deliriously happy nor steeped in emotional turmoil ; I’m neutral and on an even keel. Subtle contentment lasts a lot longer than heightened happiness ever does.
Interesting point of view from a person who thinks of himself as independent, but he still felt the need to share and connect 😋 and yes i see the difference between aloneness and the latter. Being independent, and alone, doesnt mean to be disconnected, and never to feel. Being neutral is like lukewarm water. To be centered is it the same as being even? Disconnected is neutral. The gratitude you mention isnt neutral..is it? (Ps. Not critisizing, but like i said, very interesting point of view, and a good topic for discussion 👍).
I was back stabbed all the time by my friends. When I was done with all this I started my journey being alone but great thing is I started to know more about myself I started loving myself no negativity at all. It's just me and my thoughts and being alone made me a very better and matured person.
Unfortunately, there’s this saying that goes; ‘FRIENDS ARE LIKE A**H***S’ EVERYONE’s GOT ONE!!! So I’m better of with the very few true friends I have, one being my sister than a BUNCH OF LOSERS! Good for you on parting & staying away from them. Stay strong!!! They will get their KARMA!!!
At this teenage period of life where all of boys and girls are rather hanging out in groups and having fun,i don't have the chance to do so. I have got 3 classmates,but after being being backstabbed by them 3 years ago,i prefer being alone. That's how I started to be alone journey and looks like you all are also like me (surely i am not alone😄) P.S. - If God hadn't given me the opportunity to be alone,neither i will know the difference between toxic people and nice people nor i get to discover that my mom,who was with me always but i never considered her as a friend but strictly as a mom can be my lifelong best friend ❤️. I am grateful to universe for Letting me know the nicest person in my life.
Amrutha, if you have been back stabbed, betrayed, cheated, by the people you hang out with, it simply means you have been taken for a fool and you have no friends. It is your responsibility to open your eyes and see what is happening under your nose, friend.
I've been an introvert most of I life. I am also a lover of books. Reading is my passion. I can function around a crowd but after a while i must have my space. A lot of people tells me that they wish they had been like me earlier in their life without COVID forcing them to do it. I made books my friends early in life. I'm going to take his 24 hour advice.peace to you Sir.
When you are alone you see who you really are, that is why so many people can't stand being alone without friends, when you do fast from friends you will clearly see who you are and who you need to bring to your life to make progress instead of regressing and partying
I used to be afraid of being alone but then I realized it was because I had lost myself in my previous relationship and I remembered how much I loved being by myself. 🙏 🤲 🕍
The strongest kind of people are those who learn to live alone...... it's the toughest thing you r cracking if you don't need a listener most of the time.... Being alone shows how much calibre you actually have.
I agree that being alone is the only true authentic way to experience life as you enter alone and leave alone. Who you share the experience with enriches your life, but should never overtake your journey
@@katrinaemily6601 yes! Here its not about that you don't have to love someone else. But you don't have have to give the key to someone else to make you feel happy or sad. So if you love yourself then you can love people unconditionally because even if they leave you will yet be happy and there will be no insecurities in your mind🙃.....
I’ve been alone for most of my life. And the only support I’ve ever received is from myself. I enjoyed being alone. My company always tried to bring me down. Family or friends.
Same here. Been on my own since I Was 14. Terrible family friends foster care and bad abusive relationships. I only ever felt safe inside my own mind. Being alone and safe now is a beautiful thing. Everytime I wish I had company I always end up regretting it once I do lol
Once I conquered being alone comfortably for so long, it has become difficult to be around others long term. It’s very uncomfortable being in long term romantic relationships, yet those relationships reveal things to me that I couldn’t have realized about myself just being alone. A balance of both, from my human experience, is very important.
Sadhguru knows how to communicate and engage with all sorts of different people at all sorts of levels, because he has compassion and empathy - traits of wisdom. Leaders ought to have wisdom if they are to be anything other than destructive.
I learned many years ago to honour my solitude after discovering loneliness, I got through it and now I enjoy being all by myself. No matter the situation or event ! Over 30 years of experience and I love it 🥰 but other people don’t seem to understand !
It's better to be alone than have Friends who take advantage of you and you don't realise at that time but many times I have realised this so I feel it is better to be by my self even in a crowded place.
From a small child growing up, my biggest fear was nobody loving me and being all alone. I am living and have overcome my biggest fear. I LOVE to be alone , i enjoy my own company, most of the time....:) It was an incredibly hard painful journey that i grew tremendously from. I am blessed to have been presented with having to face and overcome such an intense fear and do so successfully. I have learned a lot about myself on my journeys. you have to love thyself to truly love all
Hello Sadhguru, I hope you are recovering well after the surgery. I wish you a speedy recovery. Thank you for the videos and teachings. I always find them very useful. After many challenges and changes in my life, I can control my emotions better. I've learned a lot about the importance of nature in our health, physical and mental well-being, and meditation. I'm living alone for the first time and I really enjoy it. My professional life is improving all the time. I'm learning and perfecting a new language. Changes don't destabilize me as much as they used to. I want to thank you for your work and your positive influence😊.
I have long said " Just because you are alone, doesnt mean you should feel lonely" Because we must seek strength from within more often than not. I agree with this video a lot. ^~^
I have often said that to many people who look at me strangely and tell me that I shouldn't be alone as its unhealthy. I have never been more happier and at peace with myself. When I am alone I am not lonely. It's not the same thing. Being able to choose when to disconnect from toxicity and negativity is the power of being alone. I have few trusted friends and I am never lonely even when I am alone
Enjoying being alone breaks all co-dependency to all things and people. The greatest fear people have is loneliness. Release that fear and then you are free. Then you can truly enjoy being with others.
Everything we ever wanted is just on the other side of fear... Yesterday is gone tomorrow is not promised, but today is a gift of life. Love and Light 💖
That is recovering alcoholic saying that they live by when my father told it to me I live by it it is very true and a lot of people don't understand that either
Being alone is where I found myself. Being together is what I choose. Either way I'm happy 😊 I'm so grateful 🙏🏻to have both opportunities that bring me great happiness 💃🏼💖🗝🦉🪶⚖🌈🦋🌠🦄
@Return of Me yes I am! Isn't it wonderful to see everything clear when everything around you is in chaos! It took hardwork to get to where I am again! I haven't had this thinking since I was 23! The last 32 years brought me to my lowest.I went through alot to be able to say feel that again! I choose happiness oh yes I do! It's always a choice!
@Return of Me as I wish you and everyone reading this comment! Peace love kindness compassion joy patience presence find you! Keep going! You can do it!
There is a loneliness more precious than life. There is freedom more precious than the world. Infinitely more precious than life and the world is that moment when one is alone with God. ~Rumi 🕉️♥️🙏🏽
i salute you sadhguru...since long ago, im always alone..during my tough or hard or difficult times, im always survived..and i promise to myself no matter how hard life is or difficult life is i will always make a way to survive alone...
I absolutely love spending time alone - I feel more connected with everybody and everything. When I’m with somebody, I’m present but somehow more disconnected from everything also. The power of being alone and just taking things in 🧘🏻♂️
I have learned to be alone and independent always and there's a different feeling in being me and i know much more about me than anyone else. I've loved myself the most. Trust me, it will work.
@@shubhisharma4261 Change your company. Toxic friends are the first one to go out of your life and then probabaly those who don't have their goals similar to yours and you're unknowingly 'wasting' time with them.
Went camping by myself 3 or 4 years ago for a few days break from the world. Had the best time ever and itching to go back. The isolated feeling was deep at the start but by the end I didn’t feel alone as I had found myself being transformed into just being still. Stillness opened my mind in a way nothing else has since.
Can I challenge your perspective? "Isolated feeling", into "Connectedness feeling to your inner self"? (I do get your point, just added that this is what i "feel" is behind the words themselves). Thanks for sharing, and reminding me about my own "isolated" period. I had mine for about a whole year. Super intense when i got back to people, so much joy in every single dialog with others. Seing things differently. Again, thanks for sharing!
True,I myself am still working on it very hard.been co-dependent all my life,but lost my hb last year,so this is my fate.the universe was calling me for some time ...BLESSINGS 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻💜🙏🏻☀️☀️☀️🕊🕊🕊
Only few people can handle being alone. They so much romanticized the quote "No Man is an Island" to the point they always want to be with somebody. In our journey in life there are stages we come along with other people like our friends and family, there are stages where we will meet new people but most of the time we will be on stages of our life that we should walk alone.
Being alone is joy for me, I have a peace of mind, I meditate a lot, I get the chance to connect with nature and I have enough time to listen to the inner spirit. Being alone raises my level of consciousness 🙏🙏🙏 Being alone gives me the opportunity to listen and watch Sadhguru 🙏
Interesting, my experience was quite the opposite, the more I am content within myself, the less offensive others seem. SadGuru stated it simply in an older video lesson. My problems of discontentment do not source from things happening around me, however they are created from within as a response to external affairs. He once called this our FUNDAMENTAL PREDICAMENT IN LIFE, SHOULD I TURN INWARD? Or squander my life away with external affairs? After all Cabera Fitness, It is turning outward rather than inward that lead you to create this post!
Mastering being alone gave space to Evolve & jump on higher trajectory, living a wonderful life now vs. then struggling to feel okay being different (alone) from peers ❤
It may be interpreted too directly but it means fools always get themselves in trouble while anyone being with them, shall be dragged along! A piece of advise for the ignorant, so to speak.
Excellent lecture, indeed this is the reality men do not understand nor accept. Thanks Sir, you are confirming that my personal ideology is correct. I was a teacher too before but I admire the way you teach. Wonderful lecture.
The one who can be happy alone without any reason & also wept alone without any reason is inclusive with the rest of the world & also with the God. And it is ecstasy of life.
Respect this mystical statement that I could try to learn from to heal my loneliness as I found most of my friends and relatives are not honest and friendly.....a great sage advice, thank you teacher.
Being alone gives us a chance to explore ourselves and to get to know ourselves in and out. It is an enchanting process. Once we lead ourselves on the path of being alone we attain immense amount of peace and love we need. Always put yourself first, love for ourselves should be self proclaimed.
At one turn, one can see this and think there are no limits and at the same time see the limits that exist. I love how the underlying theme is what gives the title to this video. The term "Seeing is believing", comes to mind while watching this.
I had to learn to live and be alone. I was afraid to choose it on my own before the conditions of my life changed to make it happen. It was scary. I got help from a good therapist that I decided to trust. I'm still working on myself but glad I found Sadhguru and can understand, even implement, the concepts he shares. A fine teacher!

..and critical for spiritual progress. Sad but true.

I wish we had a guru as a teacher in schools.. People need spirit as a subject
Oh on the other hand these lessons were always available in school. THE SCHOOL OF LIFE!
I definitely agree
You're so correct though. At the very least we need to teach emotional intelligence in schools
just discussing how go be mindful and manage stressful emotions and situations can go a long way
It's one of the most important subjects in this life and yet so often overlooked
That might turn young students to become better adults.
But practical can't be shown by this teacher.
I feel peace,calm and stressfree while alone.
How can you get that feeling while you’re feeling alone? I feel emptiness and missing while I’m feeling alone
@@violaaussi9713 Feeling alone and being alone are different. Its an awakening experience..

"Being alone makes you calm and safe from fool people"
Avoid the herd mentality either in person or social media. Limit your time on the phone as well. Suddenly, you realize that you wasted one precious hour of your time. Time management is the key,

At this teenage period of life where all of boys and girls are rather hanging out in groups and having fun,i don't have the chance to do so. I have got 3 classmates,but after being being backstabbed by them 3 years ago,i prefer being alone. That's how I started to be alone journey and looks like you all are also like me (surely i am not alone😄)
P.S. - If God hadn't given me the opportunity to be alone,neither i will know the difference between toxic people and nice people nor i get to discover that my mom,who was with me always but i never considered her as a friend but strictly as a mom can be my lifelong best friend ❤️. I am grateful to universe for Letting me know the nicest person in my life.
Amrutha, if you have been back stabbed, betrayed, cheated, by the people you hang out with, it simply means you have been taken for a fool and you have no friends. It is your responsibility to open your eyes and see what is happening under your nose, friend.
I agree
I've been an introvert most of I life. I am also a lover of books. Reading is my passion. I can function around a crowd but after a while i must have my space. A lot of people tells me that they wish they had been like me earlier in their life without COVID forcing them to do it. I made books my friends early in life. I'm going to take his 24 hour advice.peace to you Sir.
When you are alone you see who you really are, that is why so many people can't stand being alone without friends, when you do fast from friends you will clearly see who you are and who you need to bring to your life to make progress instead of regressing and partying
Yep right.. so im cool with being alone..
I used to be afraid of being alone but then I realized it was because I had lost myself in my previous relationship and I remembered how much I loved being by myself. 🙏 🤲 🕍
Thank you a didn’t see it that way
Wise words
If you need people fix this, because when you need them its not choice its need 😁🙏🔥
The strongest kind of people are those who learn to live alone...... it's the toughest thing you r cracking if you don't need a listener most of the time....
Being alone shows how much calibre you actually have.
It takes nothing to join the crowd, but it takes everything to stand or be alone... If you want to be strong, learn to Enjoy being Alone.
Correct
Awesome revelation is just BEING, I AM . I belong to the Creator of this Universe.
Great wisdom nailed it
"When people are alone, they become spiritual. When in company, they become religious." - SADHGURU 🧡☀️🙏🏽💜⭐️
Amen
Amen
You hit the nail on the head!!!!
I never looked at it that way...Awesome!!!
Ha, bang on!
I agree that being alone is the only true authentic way to experience life as you enter alone and leave alone. Who you share the experience with enriches your life, but should never overtake your journey
Being alone is having more spiritual time and less negative input when with others
To love oneself is the beginning of a life long romance....Oscar Wilde.
To love ones self is fundamental to survive, or you would deprive yourself of basic sustenance.
You can’t hug yourself.
@@katrinaemily6601 yes! Here its not about that you don't have to love someone else. But you don't have have to give the key to someone else to make you feel happy or sad. So if you love yourself then you can love people unconditionally because even if they leave you will yet be happy and there will be no insecurities in your mind🙃.....
@@rajatgarg6859 I never said anything about that.
live one's life, i mean
I can accomplish so much more when I do things alone. I'm my bestie!!!
I’ve been alone for most of my life. And the only support I’ve ever received is from myself. I enjoyed being alone. My company always tried to bring me down. Family or friends.
WOW. GREAT.
Stay strong and continue being you! You are doing great!
" show me your company, I'll tell you who you are".
I don’t have family. They are Relatively, relayed it relatives. Facts!! Your not alone!!!!
Same here. Been on my own since I Was 14. Terrible family friends foster care and bad abusive relationships. I only ever felt safe inside my own mind. Being alone and safe now is a beautiful thing. Everytime I wish I had company I always end up regretting it once I do lol
This video came at the right time just when I was thinking I am feeling lonely. Thankyou Sadhguru 🙏
For me too!!!!! Perfect. So perfect
Once I conquered being alone comfortably for so long, it has become difficult to be around others long term. It’s very uncomfortable being in long term romantic relationships, yet those relationships reveal things to me that I couldn’t have realized about myself just being alone. A balance of both, from my human experience, is very important.
Sadhguru knows how to communicate and engage with all sorts of different people at all sorts of levels, because he has compassion and empathy - traits of wisdom. Leaders ought to have wisdom if they are to be anything other than destructive.
Back in the old days the leaders were mostly wise elders.
Nice!
I definitely agree that being alone can be magical - you can self-realize, reflect and project path for the future ...
It's better to walk alone than to walk with a fool 😍😍😍
Thank you Sadhguruji 🙏😍
Silence is golden moment of being alone invoking great depths of spiritual being.
I learned many years ago to honour my solitude after discovering loneliness, I got through it and now I enjoy being all by myself. No matter the situation or event ! Over 30 years of experience and I love it 🥰 but other people don’t seem to understand !
I understand you perfectly well. I enjoy being alone too. True people do not understand it. It's so peaceful.
That's because they haven't experienced it.
I get you...me too.
I could have written your words.
🙂👍
Am alone ranger
I can understand what you are saying 😊
It's better to be alone than have Friends who take advantage of you and you don't realise at that time but many times I have realised this so I feel it is better to be by my self even in a crowded place.
I have found being alone is beter than with wrong person...Its alot of happiness
This is honestly so relevant to where I am now
Good

this man is pure medicine, watched thousands of hours and yet he always blows me away
From a small child growing up, my biggest fear was nobody loving me and being all alone. I am living and have overcome my biggest fear. I LOVE to be alone , i enjoy my own company, most of the time....:) It was an incredibly hard painful journey that i grew tremendously from. I am blessed to have been presented with having to face and overcome such an intense fear and do so successfully. I have learned a lot about myself on my journeys. you have to love thyself to truly love all
Being alone and contented was a long journey for me too! So worth it though. I love it.
It is better to listen Sadhguru than anyone else....
because "SADHGURU" is the answer to the question "HOW TO LIVE"
I also agree..
Hello Sadhguru,
I hope you are recovering well after the surgery. I wish you a speedy recovery. Thank you for the videos and teachings. I always find them very useful. After many challenges and changes in my life, I can control my emotions better. I've learned a lot about the importance of nature in our health, physical and mental well-being, and meditation. I'm living alone for the first time and I really enjoy it. My professional life is improving all the time. I'm learning and perfecting a new language. Changes don't destabilize me as much as they used to. I want to thank you for your work and your positive influence😊.
I have long said " Just because you are alone, doesnt mean you should feel lonely" Because we must seek strength from within more often than not. I agree with this video a lot. ^~^
Oh I learned as a child that all I really wanted more often than not is "Leave Me Alone!"
I have often said that to many people who look at me strangely and tell me that I shouldn't be alone as its unhealthy. I have never been more happier and at peace with myself. When I am alone I am not lonely. It's not the same thing. Being able to choose when to disconnect from toxicity and negativity is the power of being alone. I have few trusted friends and I am never lonely even when I am alone
Enjoying being alone breaks all co-dependency to all things and people. The greatest fear people have is loneliness. Release that fear and then you are free. Then you can truly enjoy being with others.
greatest fear is failing not loneliness, right?
Being alone makes you know yourself more.
Everything we ever wanted is just on the other side of fear... Yesterday is gone tomorrow is not promised, but today is a gift of life. Love and Light 💖
That is recovering alcoholic saying that they live by when my father told it to me I live by it it is very true and a lot of people don't understand that either
"From compulsive reaction to conscious action." Repeat this mantra daily
"Individual "= in divided duality. 🙏❤🙏. Thankyou Guruji x
Being alone is where I found myself. Being together is what I choose. Either way I'm happy 😊 I'm so grateful 🙏🏻to have both opportunities that bring me great happiness 💃🏼💖🗝🦉🪶⚖🌈🦋🌠🦄
.Al
@Return of Me yes I am! Isn't it wonderful to see everything clear when everything around you is in chaos! It took hardwork to get to where I am again! I haven't had this thinking since I was 23! The last 32 years brought me to my lowest.I went through alot to be able to say feel that again! I choose happiness oh yes I do! It's always a choice!
@Return of Me as I wish you and everyone reading this comment! Peace love kindness compassion joy patience presence find you! Keep going! You can do it!
There is a loneliness more precious than life. There is freedom more precious than the world. Infinitely more precious than life and the world is that moment when one is alone with God. ~Rumi 🕉️♥️🙏🏽
Thank You! ! !
0:52 !!! For me it is "better to walk alone," than with someone who would not understand my path.
Being alone is not being lonely. I love being alone. Helps me think like a human being!
Just...Being...Human...
Is Human being. No distractions. Alone, in silence, mindfully being the human that
brings you peace. 🙏❤️
🙏🏻
I love being alone it’s a beautiful thing 💛🦋 so grateful for being alone it taught me so much good and bad
I really am starting to understand why things happen like they do. I count my blessings everyday. Sending everybody here positive vibes. ❤️
This is so true, video at the right time esp during these difficult times. 🙌
i salute you sadhguru...since long ago, im always alone..during my tough or hard or difficult times, im always survived..and i promise to myself no matter how hard life is or difficult life is i will always make a way to survive alone...
I absolutely love spending time alone - I feel more connected with everybody and everything. When I’m with somebody, I’m present but somehow more disconnected from everything also. The power of being alone and just taking things in 🧘🏻♂️
I have learned to be alone and independent always and there's a different feeling in being me and i know much more about me than anyone else. I've loved myself the most. Trust me, it will work.
I want to learn this... but ppl around try to harm n destroy once you attain tht repose within.
@@shubhisharma4261 Change your company.
Toxic friends are the first one to go out of your life and then probabaly those who don't have their goals similar to yours and you're unknowingly 'wasting' time with them.
Buddha was a Taurus. Awesome I'm so grateful for spiritual leaders. Thank you. Earth signs we are alone a lot.
A human BEING is a limitless possibility🔥
Went camping by myself 3 or 4 years ago for a few days break from the world. Had the best time ever and itching to go back. The isolated feeling was deep at the start but by the end I didn’t feel alone as I had found myself being transformed into just being still. Stillness opened my mind in a way nothing else has since.
I do it in my bedroom with the wonderful videos that is a buffet of wisdom/ Our choice.
Can I challenge your perspective? "Isolated feeling", into "Connectedness feeling to your inner self"? (I do get your point, just added that this is what i "feel" is behind the words themselves). Thanks for sharing, and reminding me about my own "isolated" period. I had mine for about a whole year. Super intense when i got back to people, so much joy in every single dialog with others. Seing things differently. Again, thanks for sharing!
being in a divinely peaceful state of mind when I'm alone... I love me, myself and I
Considering how few people can do it, it is almost a superpower nowadays
True,I myself am still working on it very hard.been co-dependent all my life,but lost my hb last year,so this is my fate.the universe was calling me for some time ...BLESSINGS 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻💜🙏🏻☀️☀️☀️🕊🕊🕊
Yes
I am an heroine then, I just need a mirror to talk to and share my thoughts ;)
Only few people can handle being alone. They so much romanticized the quote "No Man is an Island" to the point they always want to be with somebody. In our journey in life there are stages we come along with other people like our friends and family, there are stages where we will meet new people but most of the time we will be on stages of our life that we should walk alone.
Best way to find yourself. Also the best way to find the truth.
Being alone is joy for me, I have a peace of mind, I meditate a lot, I get the chance to connect with nature and I have enough time to listen to the inner spirit. Being alone raises my level of consciousness 🙏🙏🙏 Being alone gives me the opportunity to listen and watch Sadhguru 🙏
Thankyou Sadhguru, your teaching and guide is so inspiring and opening up my mind.... I am Buddhist from Indonesia 🙏
Being here alone is a sign of you trying to build a bright future for yourself..May God guide us all🤲🤲
The more I get used to being alone the more people bother me.
Yes, same for me!
Ml a
That’s how it is
You can in turn bother them by being alone 😀
Interesting, my experience was quite the opposite, the more I am content within myself, the less offensive others seem. SadGuru stated it simply in an older video lesson. My problems of discontentment do not source from things happening around me, however they are created from within as a response to external affairs. He once called this our FUNDAMENTAL PREDICAMENT IN LIFE, SHOULD I TURN INWARD? Or squander my life away with external affairs? After all Cabera Fitness, It is turning outward rather than inward that lead you to create this post!
Bless💖 it's better to alone than to be with someone who makes you feel lonely. Rejection is God's protection from something nasty
Mastering being alone gave space to Evolve & jump on higher trajectory, living a wonderful life now vs. then struggling to feel okay being different (alone) from peers ❤
Solitude is an opportunity to get to know the Self.
Mr Eric would love to know your story
💪💛
It's better to walk alone than to walk with a fool. - Sadhguru
* -Buddha
This is quote of Buddha
It may be interpreted too directly but it means fools always get themselves in trouble while anyone being with them, shall be dragged along! A piece of advise for the ignorant, so to speak.
Not if it's a 20 year old sexy Russian. Lady fool and arent we all Fools???
This is a Misquote
According to me the power of being alone has infinite will😌
I believe being alone is most powerful thing in this world 🥺
SOLITUDE ANY DAY ANYTIME... IT'S A DECISION I HAVE NOT REGRETTED MAKING...IT MADE REALIZE HOW POWERFUL & VIGILANT I COULD BE 🙏 💚💚💚
Excellent lecture, indeed this is the reality men do not understand nor accept. Thanks Sir, you are confirming that my personal ideology is correct. I was a teacher too before but I admire the way you teach. Wonderful lecture.
There's a sayin a teacher's a student too
The one who can be happy alone without any reason & also wept alone without any reason is inclusive with the rest of the world & also with the God.
And it is ecstasy of life.
💪💛
Respect this mystical statement that I could try to learn from to heal my loneliness as I found most of my friends and relatives are not honest and friendly.....a great sage advice, thank you teacher.
Being alone is truly the best way to know who u are and your purpose on this earth
When I'm alone my peace is the ultimate,some people can upset that calmness if you don't have boundaries
Silence and loneliness are the opportunities for those who seek tremendous growth.
Being alone gives us a chance to explore ourselves and to get to know ourselves in and out. It is an enchanting process. Once we lead ourselves on the path of being alone we attain immense amount of peace and love we need. Always put yourself first, love for ourselves should be self proclaimed.
So true .I agree with you gargee
At one turn, one can see this and think there are no limits and at the same time see the limits that exist. I love how the underlying theme is what gives the title to this video. The term "Seeing is believing", comes to mind while watching this.
It's ok to choose peace over company. Love my alone time to rest my brain. I'm way more productive alone.
I had to learn to live and be alone. I was afraid to choose it on my own before the conditions of my life changed to make it happen. It was scary. I got help from a good therapist that I decided to trust. I'm still working on myself but glad I found Sadhguru and can understand, even implement, the concepts he shares. A fine teacher!
I never get tired of listening to Sudhguru.
I agree that being alone helps me move towards my spiritual journey much rewarding 🙏🏽🙇🏻♂️🙇🏻♂️🙇🏻♂️🌹
Honestly. When I'm alone I do pray alot but when I'm not alone. I find it difficult to pray .
YES YOUR CORRECT.
