Summary

Whatever situations arise in life, Sadhguru says, one can choose to use them and make himself stronger and better, or he can sit and cry. For one who sees his life as a stepping stone to a larger possibility, there is no such thing as failure.

That's very powerful inside. I just walked inside into the space where all the Brahmacharis

0:09.2

are chanting. There's something special about their chants. It's kind of, it kind of hits

0:14.1

you right here. It's kind of energizing and power. So, what's the Brahmachari? I mean,

0:20.9

we understand it in Hinduism. Brahmachari means denial and you often say it's not about

0:25.6

denial. It's about gaining something without denying it. It's about telling me about it.

0:35.1

And I have to say that both men and women in there, it's not like, they're not like monks,

0:39.3

they're all the women who have been put up in a nunnery and the monks are in some monastery.

They're all there. For example, somebody is climbing out to climb Mount Everest, okay?

He prepares for years, probably for a lifetime, he prepares. And then he is in the harshest

of the ultimate. Or in other words, you are somebody who is not willing to settle for small

1:38.5

things. So, anybody who has created anything worthwhile in their lives, have naturally denied

1:45.5

themselves a lot of simple pleasures, other people are having. When you're making a

1:49.7

film, maybe you're not eating well, maybe you're not sleeping well, are you taking your

1:55.2

afternoon nap, sitting with your wife, enjoying the seaster, having dinner with them, with

1:59.6

your family? Are you doing all this? Everything you deny yourself because you want to create

2:03.0

something, isn't it? Isn't that true with every man or woman who has created something
