Sadhguru undergoes emergency brain surgery after ‘life-threatening bleeding’

[Leo Gura]

@Yali Think for yourself.

@Leo Gura Idk what consciousness is capable of, that's why I'm asking you.

Use your imagination. How would you feel if we slowly roasted you like a chicken?

This is not really so abstract or hypothetical.

If I get run over by a bus, you guys can say I sacrificed my body in service to humanity.

Lol. 

But you know... Millions of people have become inspired by Jesus to be of service when they saw what they saw. I doubt anyone would be inspired by you being run by a bus  so maybe there was something more to it than simply being killed.

Hardly anyone saw or knew who Jesus was. A handful of people at best. And they started a cult.

If you guys start a cult for me after I die, maybe I can rise to the level of Jesus. It's all on you

I meant to say the story of Jesus. The legacy that he left. That whole demonstration of forgiveness and love and all that. That has strong impact and inspiration to be less ego centric on people even till this day. 

I doubt being run by a bus would have that impact.

Of course you can question the whole story is not true even to begin with. But might be true. I just hope we can leave that possiblity on the table that's all.

Of course you guys gotta play it up. Tell people how sweet and wonderful I was. How my farts smelled of roses. How my eyes sizzled with magic. How I healed some of you. How wet I made ya'll. Etc.

And that was no ordinary bus, that was a bus driven by the Devil himself.

@Leo Gura If I were in a radical state of consciousness that is fully grounded in the infinite self, then maybe I would be immune to that level of suffering (as some of these monks seem to be).

It's probably not even that important if the story is true or not. There are many similar examples of enlightened people who gave their life in service besides one Jew. Any one of those examples is enough to make my point. Which is... I can't even remember now 😅

Hmmm. Actually I agree here. Any story even if it's fake that speaks about surrendering ego-centerness for service-centerness would be inspiring. 

So... I don't know where I was going with this lol

These monks are just flexing. Don't be one of those gigachads.

@Salvijus Unfortunately the age of the internet has ruined everything.

I will go down in history as a meme.

I often think about what I would do if you were found dead (I don't wish) or stopped your work for some reason. It's a sobering question.

[Salvijus]

Oh I remembered the point I was trying to make. The stories being true or not is irrelevant. The point I was trying to make is: to be a 24/7 of service is an enlightened quality, a quality of Truth and not some negative self deception poo poo quality. 

There... My brains started working now

Depends on how and why it's done. There are many ways to do it wrong. Like, for example, working yourself to exhaustion.

It is normal to die at any time, to think that being enlightened will free you from accidents or illness is not to be enlightened. sadhguru implied that due to his condition he was invulnerable and had control over his destiny. The lesson in humility has been serious. I'm sure he will recover and be the same again, but a little more humble and less full of fantasies , would be good

You know I heard something interesting about bees..

I heard that bees live for 2-3weeks approximately. And that bees never rest or sleep but work work work. And they die working till their last moment. And the queen is giving birth to 8000bees nothing but giving birth birth birth until she dies. 

And the interesting thing is that in shamanism they call this phenomena Love. They say Bees are a manifestation of just a big service and love basically. Pretty cool huh. Maybe there is a lesson in nature here.

@Salvijus If you wanna behave like an animal, don't let me stop you.

Maybe you are a spiritual rat in a wheel?
