00:00Now women are arguing, God could be a woman.
00:06Such problems exist only in those cultures. In India, we have man-god, we have woman-god,
00:12we have cow-god, we have monkey-god, we have everything, every kind,
00:18crawling one, creeping one, flying one, because we foresaw all the problems of the future.
00:28Those who think women are not leaders are not married.
00:38And my second question is for my friend, I don't know whether you will answer it or not,
00:42but I just want to mention it over here because she has requested me to do so.
00:47Her question is, what is the purpose of this universe?
00:51Tell your friend, I didn't make it.
00:54Thank you so much.
00:56We are all love deep inside, then why do we have wars, Guruji?
01:02I didn't say that. I didn't say we are all love deep inside.
01:07No, but we are.
01:10Then you must answer the question.
01:13Were you put into a school to go the systematic way and did you keep up with it?
01:20Do I look that educated? Don't insult me like that.
01:25Actually, you know, when I go and stand in the line, in the immigration lines,
01:28particularly in America, they look at me and say,
01:31can you speak English? I say, yeah.
01:41Because I have that uneducated look, it's not easy.
01:46Do you know, do you know what it takes to remain uneducated?
01:51Education is just twenty years of going somewhere and getting one certificate.
01:55To remain uneducated, it's very difficult.
01:58Because from the day you are born, your parents, every other adult, the school, the damn thing,
02:04everybody is trying to educate you about something that's not worked in their life.
02:21That's okay.
02:24Not financial arrangements or family arrangements or whatever rubbish you have built around you.
02:29These are all accessories to life.
02:31These are all frills. Frills are so much you're missing the skirt.
02:35That's the whole problem with you.
02:38Yes, so much frill.
02:41When you get up in the morning, what do you do first thing?
02:45What do you do?
02:48What do you do?
02:53What do you do the first thing in the morning?
02:58Phone.
03:08You do one thing, you get up in the morning and smile.
03:12At home, nobody.
03:16Smile is not about somebody.
03:18Smile happens when this one is feeling in a certain way, isn't it?
03:23Yes or no?
03:24Unless you're a trained PR person, you'll learn to…
03:29Sadhguru, please accept my humble pranam.
03:32My name is Santosh.
03:33I am born in India but working in Africa for last…
03:45Extend this little further.
03:47You asked the question.
03:48You shouldn't answer the question.
03:52Thank you, thank you so much for the question.
04:03If you were a buffalo,
04:06you would be really thinking,
04:08God is a huge buffalo.
04:13Isn't it so?
04:15Yes or no?
04:19You go and ask a buffalo on sea,
04:21a buffalo will insist,
04:23God is a huge buffalo,
04:26maybe four horns.
04:32You know Idi Amin?
04:34You heard of Idi Amin?
04:35The Uganda man?
04:38Idi Amin declared,
04:40God is black.
04:42I agree with him.
04:46If a white man can have a white God,
04:49why can't a black man have a black God?
04:54But both those people are confused.
04:57We know God is brown.
05:08One more cool question.
05:09Cool it must be.
05:11Hmm?
05:13What is?
05:17Cool life.
05:19When you get wet in the rain, it's cool.
05:23You know the language?
05:23In 70s and 80s,
05:24everybody says it's a hot thing.
05:27If somebody is really good,
05:28you said,
05:28oh, he or she is hot.
05:32Now they say…
05:39You must see this one.
05:40Come here.
05:41Come.
05:43Come here, come here.
05:45Just see how she is laughing at every joke.
05:48Hmm?
05:49Look at her.
06:05She is cool.
06:08Have you experienced God?
06:13Which God are you talking about?
06:14I don't know, I'm asking you.
06:19Don't think drawing the line is your prerogative all the time.
06:24If you get too much involved with your fancy product,
06:28your wife will draw the line.
06:32It was full of shoes.
06:37Hundreds of pairs of shoes.
06:40I looked,
06:42are they in some kind of shoe business?
06:46Then I came out and the lady of the house was trying to guide me to the bathroom.
06:51Then I asked,
06:51what are all those shoes?
06:53She said,
06:54no, no, no.
06:59Not two dozens,
07:01hundreds of shoes.
07:04No.
07:07With pain in your leg,
07:08if you ask why am I born,
07:10immediately I could have told you,
07:12I could have gathered lots of miserable people around me as most spiritual gatherings are.
07:20If I tell you God is testing you,
07:29God is testing you,
07:31then you won't move.
07:32It doesn't matter if the leg is going crazy.
07:39The leg is singing songs,
07:42but God is testing me.
07:43I must pass the test.
07:47Your own expectations,
07:48you fail,
07:49it's okay.
07:50But God's expectation,
07:51can you fail?
07:53So if God doesn't necessarily exist,
07:56why do we need gurus?
07:58Why do we need Sadhguru?
08:07So if you drive in an unknown terrain,
08:12you use these days a GPS.
08:15Usually a strange woman will tell you,
08:17turn right,
08:18you turn right.
08:19She says turn left,
08:20you say turn left.
08:22She says make a U-turn,
08:23you make a U-turn.
08:25Why?
08:26Simply because you are not familiar with the terrain.
08:30When you are in an unfamiliar terrain,
08:33it is sensible to take instructions.
08:39I see a whole lot of people in India also,
08:45have picked these things up.
08:48And when they utter these words,
08:52people keep on saying,
08:54shit, shit.
08:55I keep reminding,
08:56please don't do it here,
08:57please don't do it here.
09:00Are you saying gurus are the new GPS?
09:04Not new,
09:07long time ago we've been,
09:09for a very long time,
09:10way before the GPS came.
09:12GPS means what?
09:13Guru Positioning System.
09:16Guruji, would you like a hug?
09:18I'm sorry?
09:19Would you like a hug?
09:21From you?
09:21Yes.
09:22Okay.
09:25Are you fully alive?
09:30I want to hear some lively sound.
09:32Yes.
09:34Yes, yes.
09:35Yes, yes.
09:39Who am I?
09:40Oh, why are you asking me?
09:46Some time ago,
09:48I was talking to a group of people in Nashville in Tennessee,
09:54and I was telling them a joke.
09:57In the joke,
09:58I just referred to God as him.
10:02Immediately a few ladies stood up.
10:05Do you believe God is a man?
10:06I knew where it's going.
10:07I said, see I…
10:12See, I'm only telling you a joke.
