Finally fully grasping the power of forgiveness has relieved me of deeply held stress and I now feel so much peace and happiness in its place. I found the secret is to voice out loud blessings to those who you feel have wronged you, and not to just hold it as an idea that you know is probably true....you have to physically act on it. It’s also so easy to do, and brings immense and immediate relief, which I wish I’d discovered long ago💚
I have never thought I would watch a 50 min video on RUclips twice without forcing my self to do it. And I think I am going to watch it again later. Really good talk, Sir. And the idea of "I have no control over anything" is now ringing in my head all time. I am a person who only feels comfortable when everything in my life is under my control, and at the same time I went through A LOT in the past few years that had me put on all kind of medications and suffer from anxiety and panic attacks all the time. To where I felt at many times that this is not livable. Until I watched this video and realized how the heck did I not notice through all these years of my life that the idea of me trying to have control on the world around me is actually the main reason why I am always in a so much pressure and anxiety cycle. Since then and I am putting my self under a tough practice to always remind my self that I don’t have and will never have control over anything I go though or see in this world, to the smallest things in my life. And all of a sudden a more enjoyable and peaceful thinking way was born and growing quick in my head, which is living with things, accept some things in my life the way they are and just let things be. Beside surrounding my self with family and good people and Exercise. That idea of "I have no control over anything" gave me a new and strong weapon to use in this war I am having against my Anxiety that I am winning nice and steady. A special thank you from the bottom of my heart to you Mr. Rao.
Wow you’re coment is so powerful I don’t have words to ty enough.You made me see life in a different way biside this absolutely amazing video!!THANKS🙏🙏👏👏🤝🤝
I went through a lot too since last year, and in July this year, I made my first panic attack in the night, I didn't understant what it was, never had one before. I couldn't breathe then my condition got worse, then I was diagnosed a depression. I have medication to take everyday for anxiety. Some days are quite good, others are a nightmare. For one month, I didn't have other panic attacks but I feel depressed most of the time, it's like my head is separated from my body. I overthink all the time, think about my future but don't live the present. I want to get rid off medication. I started meditation, doesn't work all the time but it helps. I try to focus on my breathe too. I'm glad you feel better now, hope it will work for me too.
Thank you for your comment. I'm struggling with anxiety and thus depression since a long time now. These past few days, it's been quite heavy. I wake up with anxiety, I sleep with anxiety, I feel like I'm becoming more and more helpless. I'm 26, unemployed, still living with my parents, and I have no idea what to do with my life. I had pictured this perfect world but it's nowhere to be seen. Everything and everyone revolves around making money, greed, consumerism and materialistic world and I am having hard time accepting it. I have different likes, different interests and not a lot of those are realistic, so future scares me as well. I haven't watched the video yet, these are one of those days where I end up spending whole day on RUclips watching these "life" videos. I have read a lot of psychology books as well but nothing really helps at the deeper levels of my own personal struggles. After reading your comment, I'm looking forward to watching this video. Hope you are doing well, my best wishes to you.
Many thanks Jordan for your post..I can so relate..!!!The good is the enemy of great and sometimes we really can do more than we think.Its about facing our truth,choosing peace over perfection And once we make peace with our non-peace we can finally be free to be what we want to be and i kind of get addicted to goals but all we really have is the now.. thanks Ed
I have nearly completed 600 days in a row of 20 minute meditations, my meditation journey has taught me that I am not my thoughts. Thoughts come and go.
@@Jst4fun817 Thank you! :) My suggestion would be to start either a 7 or 30 day challenge in order to build the habit. Do just 10 minutes per day of closing your eyes and focussing on your breath.
Something I have picked up from Dr Sri Kumar Rao. I was in a deep hole of mental agony, anxiety & what not. It’s remarkable how his books have just transformed my life. I wish to take your course in person someday Sir. I thank you from the core of my heart. Gratitude 🙏🏼 Anyone who is on such a cross road, an advice. Please have patience, it takes time but it happens very fast. You can reset your brain. Follow this legend’s methods & you will transform. Life will become blissful, unthinkable benevolent things will happen. It’s real. It’s magic. Godbless you. 🙏🏼
I have exactly zero problems. Any stress that I might feel will be the result of whatever comprises the content of my thinking. Ever day feels as though I have died and gone to heaven. It really is a joyous place to be. How did I get here? Something in the universe likes me so allowed me to be in the right place at the right time. This same power gave me perfect health without a single medical or health issue even though I am 74 years old. I worked hard all my life and didn't retire until I was 74 but it would be dishonest of me to convince myself that my problem-free life is a result of my hard work. Something, which I can't identify gave it to me. Really. I can be as happy as I chose to be.
I'm sorry, but one quick look at your profile reveals that you're a chemtrail-conspiracy-theorist and a "man-made climate change" denier. So, your world doesn't actually involve a lot of clear thinking. If it did, you would feel very stressed indeed about your own belief sets...

This video deserves to have a LOT MORE audience, views and impact on so many people *massive thumbs up*
Rather than the "illusion" of control, our experiences confirm that life is teaching us that there are limits of control. Only God has control without limit.
Watched countless Ted Talks..listened to a lot of lectures, meditated, listened to a lot of spiritual people but this is IT...really needed this as I have spent years feeling like I am at crossroads not deciding which way to go
Great this nice gentleman says at the end it doesnt matter whether u achieve ur goals as long as u enjoy the road. This is really uplifting to me coz ive done numerous of things to make life better. Life hasnt become better on the outside but on the inside ive made such progress through amongst others listening to tons of vids on yt, 10 yrs of yoga, meditation etc.
Spot on!!! I've listened to you at the right time!!! One of my cousins has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and this has had me down down down... but I have no control over it and what will be will be... life is a journey and we all get off the bus at some point. So is life since time immemorial
I was in Athens, Greece. I was going to college. I'm an artist, writer - and was doing service. I went to an international finance conference - the reception took place at the most beautiful estate with the most beautiful art. Not one attendee walked through the gallery - that was within glass walls, all lit up. They didn't even see the beauty all around us.
As a Buddhist I learned that everything that happens in our life is a way for us to grow spiritually, so accepting the situation is important also trough difficulties we can learn the most ,sometimes I got lost in my mind chatter and I speak to myself to go forward, it was wonderful to listen to Srikumar Rao It made me more aware to understand that indeed the Universe is kind and always guiding us to grow,thank you very much! 40 minutes ago
SO good! SO true! I am a mental health therapist who specializes in treating anxiety and panic disorders. This is what I tell every client. Thank you for sharing this!
Great sir.. You have striked at the right point.. Surrender to life or God is the only way to get out of stress forever.. Beautifully presented.. Thanks.. 🙏❤️
What an amazingly comprehensive deep dive that encompasses everything I've learned about spirituality and psychology in the last few years while also remaining remarkably simple and light. 👏👏👏
I believe that, to a point, experiencing stress is a choice. When I realize that something is causing me stress, I look at it. If I can’t eliminate the source, I decide not to let myself get worked up about it. I think stress is a result of worrying. If I stop worrying about it, then I won’t get all stressed out. I also get enough sleep, nutrition and stay optimistic.
Depending on the trigger. Glad it works for you. Doesn’t work to well when the cause is insomnia and excruciating pain every day that doctors have only made worse rather than better. Worrying? Perhaps. But Not so much worrying abt the future though. Just wanting the current agony to stop.
Baby can make u crazy and take antidepressants and drink alcohol and threaten to stab GP staff, it’s not like ah I am not gonna worry about it. Every little cry builds up, and next cry is scratching your brain, next cry even more and more, and then you Are not sleepinf for 4 kontus and feel like zombijs with your eyes sewed to your eyebrows and then you have hallucinatuons, . I cant eliminate the source! Yeah i not tonnā worry about it smart **
@@sinchasin3611 Your choice to take anti depressants or dring alcohol etc...take responsibility first that you dont need any of that even with a crying baby (like most people dont) It is a baby..they cry for a while...deal with it and deal with your choice in life (to have a kid)
Great presentation by Sri Kumar!!!!! We all give our maximum energy to achieve the goals that we set and get frustrated if we are unable to achieve it. We forget that the real purpose of setting the goal is "Growth". Thanks mindvelly!
The concept of the illusion if control made my brain feel so rested after accepted that I have a mental picture of how things should be and how how am going to do this and how I am going to that. After I began to appreciate what I have and how far I have been I life, I fell like inwas in a good mood and I was able to focus more and more
This is a surprisingly good talk. Most self-help talks are either shallow, unrealistic, unoriginal, unconnected to reality, everything you already knew or tried, over your head, ability or level, impractical for some people or just plain boring & unrelatable. Some ideas here are not new, but presented in a way that is practical and with a bit more insight.
I like this very much,. Just listening to his wisdom has taken all my stress away. For the first time in many years I felt no anxiety at all, bearing in mind, that I suffer often from panic attacks. I shall adopt his wisdom wholeheartedly. Thank the universe for a man like this.
Honestly this is a fantastic talk! So much value to be found that can help people like me get out of our insanity. Thank you so much for posting this on youtube for everyone to see!
instead of hour long videos I wish Mindvalley would come out with little gold nuggs video that lasted like 5 min tops but had very very good information!
Thanks. I must watch several time this to soak my soul with this wisdom. Perspective in live and counting our blessings really make a great different in our we perceive the reality . Eventually our thoughts will determine the emotional energy we have.
I like the ideas about letting go of stress... Good points indeed. And I do practice some of them in order to minimize stress while realizing that a small degree of it can be good in pushing you forward. Now, when it comes to the dog and the wolf... My dog and my wolf are NOT fighting against each other. They're, in fact, best friends. So, I have myself, and don't need anyone else! ☮️

Lovely lecture, lots of wisdom. What do I do to alleviate stress? Apart from looking at things like this video, I most often use a green-yellow-red scale/meter to be able to check my status at will. I also stopped setting goals. I realised goals are an image of what has been. Striving for them means strife to get back to a state that is already gone. I think in Scenarios now. Have a few to avoid, others that are more probable, and a few fantastic ones to be able to recognise fluke if it hits me. The last trick actually dawned on me today. When my head spirals off into space, I ask myself "Is this an emergency that will irreversibly change things within the next fifteen minutes?" Mostly isn't, and I can let myself relax. And the thought that what I perceive as "stress", is a feeling with a name that may be something else. Like "preparedness to create great stuff".
@Amema, Your thinking is so great. We always getting tensed and overstressed thinking about something. We need to relax our minds and need to remember that overthinking can create a bigger issue. Thanks for sharing this with us.
Adding to this is acceptance. Just accept whatever happened or not happened. this was the advice I got. There is also the famous lines spoken by Lord Krishna . Do your duty and don't worry about the results.(In Tamil it is kdameyai sei , Palanai ethirparkadhey). It all seem to echo here.
Such an enlightening video. Immediately after this watching clip it gave me something to think about. I now understand the real reason for why I am constantly stressed. It’s because of the attempt to control circumstances. Thanks for the education

Thank you, very inspiring. I feel you are and you should be in control of every situation in front of you , as it should be for every person in the same situation as you. You can always compromise with a situation or with a person through negotiation without hitting your stress hormones. I feel one way to reduce your stress is to try and predict a stress situation before it happens and deal with it by first taking a very deep breath and then face the stressful situation. Works for me, hope it does for you in addition to what the very learned Dr Srikumar Rao conveys to us with his intellect and wisdom.
What a beautiful wise story teller with mesages that if put into practice our life will be heaven on Earth . Love the closing mesages. Thank you. Best talk .
We are not our thoughts...very true. We feed either the dog or the wolf, friends we keep, books we read, movies we watch, habits we pick up...we define ourselves through small intricate matters!
This is a great video. For us Muslims, control is not in the hands of humans, like you said, but furthermore what helps with stress is knowing that everything we do, we do it as part of the cause and effect paradigm, except that the effect part is not solely depending on the cause, the effect is only triggered by the cause but it’s finality and realization is up to God, Allah or a high power depending on what the readers believe. As such, we have no control over outcomes but we have the free will for our own actions although don’t solely realize the wanted effects.

The Universe, God, the Gods (or whatever entity / energy you believe in) must have a sense of humour, because what ever we wish, it comes but always in a different way. Letting go it is one of the most difficult thing to do. thank you for the video!
I love everything here. I'm a type A. lol living inside my head. "Find a cause bigger than you are." I needed this. And oh, i am tha noodle kind of woman too!Love the last part hahahah.
yes me too...Will we ever find peace..???Once we eliminate the non peace and our inner conflicts then we gain a sense of natural calm,We sometimes look for happiness in the wrong places and the anxiety can come from always getting ,striving, fighting & a sense of lack when if we just accepted that happiness is in us now Doesn’t mean we don’t have goals and direction but its measured and in alignment with who we are and balanced etc ed
Wow, what a great and meaningful video -- one of the best I've ever seen -- with much useful wisdom for enjoying greater success in all areas of life. I just shared it to Facebook. And I subscribed and belled this site. And I will review this video regularly until the concepts become very natural to me. Thank you, Mr. Srikumar!
See the comment about Quran the only way to tranquility peace and happiness and see the scientific miracles of the Quran. ( Mind -blowing facts ) in utube I wish you hapyness from my heart.
The true to your self is powerfully wonderfull some times over whelming the event's like oh i'll never thinking it's going to be me .This bit of falsehood in thought is allways the hardest thing to get over .Like he said find that answer from a stranger or an associate with a common purpose or exsperience that they may have had .
I believe the imformation given. Can begin to start a journey of releasing the unknown back to creator. We are not God . Even God doesn't practice total control he gives us free wil.
I have worried my whole life. Then one day it felt as if my brain inflated and since that day it is impossible for me to worry or be stressed about anything. If I get bad news or something negative happens then I will be stressed/worry for a very short time and then it is gone. And I have all the same things to worry about, be it money or work, I just don't worry about it anymore. I used to spend nights worrying and thinking and now I don't. It is a pity I do not have a scan of my brain before and after the change.

Great sir.. You have striked at the right point..
Surrender to life or God is the only way to get out of stress forever..
Beautifully presented.. Thanks.. 🙏❤️
What an amazingly comprehensive deep dive that encompasses everything I've learned about spirituality and psychology in the last few years while also remaining remarkably simple and light. 👏👏👏
pure mind. Control thoughts. No attachment for desires. give up arrogance, ego
Can u prove this sir/madam.....ruclips.net/video/ahH5BWIHCag/видео.html
I believe that, to a point, experiencing stress is a choice. When I realize that something is causing me stress, I look at it. If I can’t eliminate the source, I decide not to let myself get worked up about it. I think stress is a result of worrying. If I stop worrying about it, then I won’t get all stressed out. I also get enough sleep, nutrition and stay optimistic.
What about baby
Dealing with stress is great. Enough sleep and nutrition needed. Thanks for sharing this.
Depending on the trigger. Glad it works for you. Doesn’t work to well when the cause is insomnia and excruciating pain every day that doctors have only made worse rather than better. Worrying? Perhaps. But Not so much worrying abt the future though. Just wanting the current agony to stop.
Baby can make u crazy and take antidepressants and drink alcohol and threaten to stab GP staff, it’s not like ah I am not gonna worry about it. Every little cry builds up, and next cry is scratching your brain, next cry even more and more, and then you Are not sleepinf for 4 kontus and feel like zombijs with your eyes sewed to your eyebrows and then you have hallucinatuons, . I cant eliminate the source! Yeah i not tonnā worry about it smart **
@@sinchasin3611 Your choice to take anti depressants or dring alcohol etc...take responsibility first that you dont need any of that even with a crying baby (like most people dont) It is a baby..they cry for a while...deal with it and deal with your choice in life (to have a kid)
Great presentation by Sri Kumar!!!!! We all give our maximum energy to achieve the goals that we set and get frustrated if we are unable to achieve it. We forget that the real purpose of setting the goal is "Growth". Thanks mindvelly!

The concept of the illusion if control made my brain feel so rested after accepted that I have a mental picture of how things should be and how how am going to do this and how I am going to that. After I began to appreciate what I have and how far I have been I life, I fell like inwas in a good mood and I was able to focus more and more
This is a surprisingly good talk. Most self-help talks are either shallow, unrealistic, unoriginal, unconnected to reality, everything you already knew or tried, over your head, ability or level, impractical for some people or just plain boring & unrelatable. Some ideas here are not new, but presented in a way that is practical and with a bit more insight.
I keep coming back at frequent intervals and again it gives me fuel to make my life more loving and friendly ❤️❤️
I'm so grateful for this video. Invaluable wisdom
I like this very much,. Just listening to his wisdom has taken all my stress away. For the first time in many years I felt no anxiety at all, bearing in mind, that I suffer often from panic attacks. I shall adopt his wisdom wholeheartedly. Thank the universe for a man like this.
I am thoroughly enjoying this. I must admit I hardly ever get through entire videos. This man is a marvelous speaker. Very engaging stuff here.
Honestly this is a fantastic talk! So much value to be found that can help people like me get out of our insanity. Thank you so much for posting this on youtube for everyone to see!
instead of hour long videos I wish Mindvalley would come out with little gold nuggs video that lasted like 5 min tops but had very very good information!
You have ADD
@@Broxine Thank you
skeetavint sorry
Thanks. I must watch several time this to soak my soul with this wisdom. Perspective in live and counting our blessings really make a great different in our we perceive the reality . Eventually our thoughts will determine the emotional energy we have.
I like the ideas about letting go of stress... Good points indeed. And I do practice some of them in order to minimize stress while realizing that a small degree of it can be good in pushing you forward.
Now, when it comes to the dog and the wolf... My dog and my wolf are NOT fighting against each other. They're, in fact, best friends. So, I have myself, and don't need anyone else! ☮️
I say my self all is well everything is working out to be good and thank you.
I wish I knew about this sooner, but I am hopeful its never too late, this information will greatly help my life skills classes
The permanent cure to s tress and anxiety is the free Vipaasna meditation practiced all around the world. Meditation reprogrames the mind. Sit on a comfortable chair, hands on your laps, close your eyes, be still and focus on the breath entering and leaving your nostrils for 10 minutes early morning and evening. Slowly increase the practice to 20 minutes. Plenty of thoughts will come but they will reduce after doing the above meditation daily. Don't give up. Watch "Vipaasna meditation videos" on you tube.

"Not knowing is not a notion. It's a fact" Love it!
I watched it from beginning to end. The words of wisdom is superb. This is what I need to hear right now. ❤️
Lovely lecture, lots of wisdom.
What do I do to alleviate stress? Apart from looking at things like this video, I most often use a green-yellow-red scale/meter to be able to check my status at will. I also stopped setting goals. I realised goals are an image of what has been. Striving for them means strife to get back to a state that is already gone. I think in Scenarios now. Have a few to avoid, others that are more probable, and a few fantastic ones to be able to recognise fluke if it hits me.
The last trick actually dawned on me today. When my head spirals off into space, I ask myself "Is this an emergency that will irreversibly change things within the next fifteen minutes?" Mostly isn't, and I can let myself relax.
And the thought that what I perceive as "stress", is a feeling with a name that may be something else. Like "preparedness to create great stuff".
@Amema, Your thinking is so great. We always getting tensed and overstressed thinking about something. We need to relax our minds and need to remember that overthinking can create a bigger issue. Thanks for sharing this with us.
Adding to this is acceptance. Just accept whatever happened or not happened. this was the advice I got. There is also the famous lines spoken by Lord Krishna . Do your duty and don't worry about the results.(In Tamil it is kdameyai sei , Palanai ethirparkadhey). It all seem to echo here.
Such an enlightening video. Immediately after this watching clip it gave me something to think about. I now understand the real reason for why I am constantly stressed. It’s because of the attempt to control circumstances. Thanks for the education
This is such a good talk. I am going to watch this regularly to remind me how to live.
Can u prove this sir/madam.....ruclips.net/video/ahH5BWIHCag/видео.html
I will do the same thing

Very encouranging teaching. Let us chew what we are able to swallow at any given time. What does it profit a man if you own the whole world and lose your life. Let us work on the process and God will get us to achieve the goal. Wonderful teaching.
I can learn things about this. You seem to have the right idea, as soon as you control it will know that isn’t good.

RUclips suggestions coming in clutch with something I needed to hear
the ist great man i saw on youtube ,who really made it clear in a very intelligent manner and really can change our life
Thank you, very inspiring. I feel you are and you should be in control of every situation in front of you , as it should be for every person in the same situation as you. You can always compromise with a situation or with a person through negotiation without hitting your stress hormones. I feel one way to reduce your stress is to try and predict a stress situation before it happens and deal with it by first taking a very deep breath and then face the stressful situation. Works for me, hope it does for you in addition to what the very learned Dr Srikumar Rao conveys to us with his intellect and wisdom.
What a beautiful wise story teller with mesages that if put into practice our life will be heaven on Earth . Love the closing mesages. Thank you. Best talk .
yes we can live better with ourself first know how u think self-realization
We are not our thoughts...very true. We feed either the dog or the wolf, friends we keep, books we read, movies we watch, habits we pick up...we define ourselves through small intricate matters!
Was this a video that gave me a lot? YES! Will I see it again? YES! THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH!
This is a great video. For us Muslims, control is not in the hands of humans, like you said, but furthermore what helps with stress is knowing that everything we do, we do it as part of the cause and effect paradigm, except that the effect part is not solely depending on the cause, the effect is only triggered by the cause but it’s finality and realization is up to God, Allah or a high power depending on what the readers believe. As such, we have no control over outcomes but we have the free will for our own actions although don’t solely realize the wanted effects.
The best talk, the best motivation I’ve ever heard/watched in RUclips! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I ve become addicted to mindvalley. Thanks for these eye-opening videos.
Absolutely worth watching, one of the best talks I’ve listened to in a long time
I am all about the journey! ! I'm down with the journey! You are speaking my language.
I heard this during the 2018 shrm conference and it was my favorite presentation
So real. Since we don't have control who has? Something out their remotes us or we are in an illusion world.
A thought provoking talk that I believe is going to change my life. Fantastic and worth every moment of my time to see this. Thank you!!
really great man who told the truth about life,most of people do not know this
Thank you. This is great help. A wisdom to cope up with stresses and life expectations. More power!

The Universe, God, the Gods (or whatever entity / energy you believe in) must have a sense of humour, because what ever we wish, it comes but always in a different way. Letting go it is one of the most difficult thing to do. thank you for the video!
This is amazing. Thanks for keeping with us!
what do you mean
LMaO mate! True
This reminds me of what I've been reading in the bible. I can appreciate this speakers way to explain what this looks like practically. Very good!
I've been watching a lot of personal development videos.But this one clicked somewhere inside of me.
Thank you for sharing 🙏
I love everything here. I'm a type A. lol living inside my head. "Find a cause bigger than you are." I needed this. And oh, i am tha noodle kind of woman too!Love the last part hahahah.
yes me too...Will we ever find peace..???Once we eliminate the non peace and our inner conflicts then we gain a sense of natural calm,We sometimes look for happiness in the wrong places and the anxiety can come from always getting ,striving, fighting & a sense of lack when if we just accepted that happiness is in us now Doesn’t mean we don’t have goals and direction but its measured and in alignment with who we are and balanced etc

Wow, what a great and meaningful video -- one of the best I've ever seen -- with much useful wisdom for enjoying greater success in all areas of life. I just shared it to Facebook. And I subscribed and belled this site. And I will review this video regularly until the concepts become very natural to me. Thank you, Mr. Srikumar!
Sensible and down to earth, a must watch and please share
Thank you very much 🙏🙏🙏💕💕💕
Thank you for this. It changed my emotions immediately and gave me hope.
See the comment about Quran the only way to tranquility peace and happiness and see the scientific miracles of the Quran. ( Mind -blowing facts ) in utube
I wish you hapyness from my heart.
The true to your self is powerfully wonderfull some times over whelming the event's like oh i'll never thinking it's going to be me .This bit of falsehood in thought is allways the hardest thing to get over .Like he said find that answer from a stranger or an associate with a common purpose or exsperience that they may have had .
Should be taught in school.

Thank you so very much!
I have worried my whole life. Then one day it felt as if my brain inflated and since that day it is impossible for me to worry or be stressed about anything. If I get bad news or something negative happens then I will be stressed/worry for a very short time and then it is gone. And I have all the same things to worry about, be it money or work, I just don't worry about it anymore. I used to spend nights worrying and thinking and now I don't. It is a pity I do not have a scan of my brain before and after the change.
