Juhi Chawla: Sadhguruji, then what is it?
Okay, so for all of us,
How do we live our days?
What is the best way to just go about it?
Give us a clear simple
simple sentences –
Do this and you will be at least on the way to being blissful
or happy
or aware
or living in a nice conscious way
Sadhguru: If you
if you just observe,
if everybody makes a little effort,
everybody take a little time for this piece of life, okay.
Not for your family,
not for your career,
not for something else,
something else,
just for this piece of life
give it little time
because this is the most important piece of life in your life, isn’t it?
Yes or no?
Participants: Yes.
Sadhguru: Even if you are in love with somebody (Laughs),
still this is the most important piece of life, isn’t it?
So pay some attention to this,
how does it happen?
why have you taken it for granted?
Believe me you are not going to be here forever.
I’ll bless you with a long life
but you are going to fall dead one day
Yes or no?
Participants: Yes.
Sadhguru: So do not take this for granted.
If you wake up in the morning
tomorrow IF you wake up in the morning (Laughter) -
no this is not my wish
but I want you to know
of all that people who go to bed tonight,
over a million people will not wake up tomorrow morning
and tomorrow
if you and me wake up tomorrow morning,
is it not a fantastic thing?
A million people did not wake up.
You woke up,
is it not a great thing?
Participants: Yes.
Sadhguru: Just look at the ceiling and smile,
you are still awake (Laughter; Applause),
you are still there.
And for many, many millions of people
somebody who is dear to them did not wake up.
So just check those five, six people around you
they all woke up –
WOW! It’s a fantastic day (Laughter).
You woke up
and everybody who matters to you around you woke up,
is it not fantastic day?
Juhi Chawla: Yes.
Sadhguru: You don’t think so?
Juhi Chawla: Yes, yes.
Sadhguru: You don’t seem to think so
because the problem is just this
you are living with an idea that you are immortal.
When I say you are immortal,
you are not actually thinking you’re immortal
but you are not conscious of your mortality.
If you’re not conscious of your mortality,
somewhere you think you are immortal, isn’t it?
How many moments in a day are you conscious
that you are mortal?
If you were conscious
would you have time to crib?
would you have time to fight with somebody?
would you have time to do some rubbish with your life?
If you knew
if you are conscious that you are mortal
you would do nothing
other than what is absolutely needed for you
and everybody around you.
This one thing if you do
if you just remind yourself
don’t think this is a negative thing,
death is not a negative thing;
it’s the only thing which has added value to your life.
If you’re here forever
you would be unbearable (Laughter).
Juhi Chawla: Yeah (Laughs), yes, yes.
Sadhguru: Isn’t it?
Aren’t we glad everybody dies one day (Laughs)?
If you just become conscious of this one thing
that always you’re conscious that “I’m mortal,”
you don’t have to think “I will die today.”
We don’t intend, we want to live as far as possible,
just you know “One day I will die.”
If you’re just conscious of this one thing
you will naturally become spiritual.
Every day,
every moment if you remind yourself
this is a brief life
“I am mortal,
one day I will end,”
Just do this for two days and see
you will become something truly fantastic within yourself
just this is all
Juhi Chawla: That was… that was simply beautiful.
Sadhguru: That's all that's needed
If you want to know
the value of life
Just know that it's a brief happening
