Completely agreed! Why should I hug random people or guys who are just hugging for the sake of physical pleasure? That is mentally uncomfortable. I Believe in Hugging only those who care for you and are concerned about you.
"Why should I hug random people or guys who are just hugging for the sake of physical pleasure?''
You shouldn't. But there are other dimensions of hugging. To me hugging is a sign of universal acceptance, love, harmony, and grace. It doesn't have to be extended to just anyone, but it fitting in certain kinds of spiritual or creative groups. This brand of hugging has nothing to do with sex. To me, hugging is like a foretaste of what's to come, symbolic of Heaven and Infinity.
Besides that, speaking as a long-time social dancer, some of the best dancing is called Close Embrace, which is similar to hugging and is a beautiful way of dancing, along with more open positions. The two dancers needn't be lovers. Close Embrace is simply a closeness with another human being in which the closeness, or hugging as it were, isn't sexual.
The world is largely unaware of the dance world.
If one is in charge of one's self like Sadhguru is, then one simply handles it in a mature manner. Done. Simple. Beautiful. Not harmful, but wholesome and uplifting.
Who even hugs random people tho?? You don't even wanna touch or be touched by the strangers, isn't it??
Hugging feels heavenly only when it's done with the ones you truly love & are attracted to.
@anoushka gokhale I don't want to agree that we hug for physical pleasure. But it Is complicated, not simply cuz I am Indian.
When I hug someone I know I'm not going to get any sexual satisfaction from it, but the mere thought of hugging a girl, getting close to boobs (if I were to be blunt) works an intense chaos or series of explosions in a dude's brain.
It also isn't a culture thing I must say, cuz, even my American friends have very little need to go out of their way to hug another guy friend. But with a girl, they jump on the chance without even a second's thought.
The strange thing is that when you hug someone you can't feel the boobs or anything... cuz it's just fat, so it holds no ummm mass? I dunno... never needed to put this in words till now. We can't feel anything to be accused of doing it for physical pleasure. Unfortunately.
But the sheer thought of getting close to a gorgeous girl and holding them, is enough to cause a preemptive strike on our funny male brains.
But eventually when we are in the act (haha) we realize that it is pleasant and warm and comforting and completing for us. Just like it feels for women. And why I think hugs essentially are so uplifting especially in this chaotic world. Sadhguru makes a killer point here though.
But yeah, I think it's complicated. So I avoid it as much as possible. Only when I'm leaving someone or meeting someone after say 5 to 6 months is when I hug either sex.
A funny note also, is that, when you refuse a hug women sense it and they desperately neeeeed to hug you somehow because of it hahaha. Unbelievable. So I give up and let it happen (o poor me!).
@@cimmerianfable I'd hug a random person :) if I felt like they needed one. Of course I'm human and so my brain kicks in to cleanliness mode and starts firing me with demands to check if I could get any disease or dirt from them (yikes! I did day I am human haha).
But when the heart says go, it's a split second decision and they get attacked with the hug haha. Genuinely not for me; evidence? A lot of times it's for guys! And I'm 110% not gay.
Guys who hug for physical (sexual?) pleasure must be so starved of it one can hardly imagine it. Or in love.
I can tell you that most guys do not derive any sexual pleasure out of a hug. In my part of the world we think nothing of it - I hug my closest guy friends as well if I haven’t seen them in a while. When I hug a female friend it’s the same.
One shouldn’t hug strangers though. That would indeed be weird and pushy. That’s what a polite hand shake is for - or just a nod of the head - I agree.
Sometimes I just think some woman think guys more sex crazed and weird than we actually are.
I always wondered why I disliked physical contact especially from random people who try to touch me for no reason.
Or in my case family and nephews /nieces; had to adjust !)
maybe because it's weird that a random person wants to touch you. that's it
@@Zoe-nr6vv lol.. What u talking about dude
@@aghori2531 if u don't know you've been neglected or you're dumb
@@yanniegeerdink7183 same
One time I was at a money seminar and everybody was walking around giving each other encouraging high fives, when this monk walks up to me and gives me the warmest embrace. I lightly hugged him back with the pat on the back thinking it would soon be over but he kept holding me, I nearly broke down and cried. He then released me and did the same thing to another person. I wasn’t a very touchy-feely person before this. I vow to be a great hugging healer one day. 🙏🏾🌹
Beautiful 🙏🏼💖
How the hearts connect
Beautiful story. 🙏
MMI intensive?
Thank u for sharing, I loved reading your comment 💚
It's been scientifically proven that ALL living things NEED to be touched...
@Ta Lori A hug is healing, I beg to differ with Sadhguru
hugging someone is affection and that's what your body will remember.....love
But everyone doesn't have the same pure thought while hugging
Idk how I feel. Hugging my kids fine but random people, I can’t hug. It doesn’t feel right or comfortable. Only if it’s my children or people I love
True
Yeah thats because you are making a connection with your kids and leaving an impression on their mind and body and its okay. But doing that with all so called "friends" or just a random person is not fruitful especially when you dont want to make a connection.
It doesn't feel right cuz you think they are bad people. You judge them very easily without knowing them.
I don't hug anyone not even my family but sometimes I have to if I see someone in pain
@@alynahydar96... Dat's different thing. Everyone hug their family members.
Here all r toking about outsiders.
I literally always thought there was something wrong with me because I see people hug so open and freely and I just cannot. It doesn’t feel right Americans are too touchy touchy & open with strangers. It’s blurred lines (I’m American by the way)
About ten years ago my body was ill in the exact same places as my granny. I knew nothing about self healing at the time and went to the doctors as usual. They gave meds to manage my various issues. Well I found that unacceptable. I was only in my forties and definitely not ready to slow down for old age! Thank goodness I took up yoga! What journey it launched me on! I’m not sick with any of her symptoms anymore.
I was hugged and loved all the time when young I love hugging, I’m a tactile person, it can also be cultural, I resonate with people from Brazil, Tunisa as they are very huggy. When I hold and hug someone I love for a period of time, I feel my whole nervous system relax
I feel deeply relaxed even if I imagine that I am hugging someone I love!
@@eeaotly if you are in certain kind of ecstasy and joy... Hugging is the best thing you could do..
But if you hug to the children or some friends just to feel relax and calm that means you're going through something and you're sharing your negative vibes with them and vice versa
@@aghori2531 I am not a "huggy" person. All I saying is that I feel deeply relaxed when I IMAGINE that I am hugging a dear friend. I am not even in the same room with that person.
I have great respect for Sadhguru but maybe what is correct in India may not be elsewhere. I get feel good hugs almost everyday and almost everywhere I go. Sometimes from complete and total strangers, even males. I think hugs can convey so much without all of the complications of it going further.
@@daniello9155 of course hugs helps to feel relax and happy, especially when we feel low..
But what he is saying is that the human touch carries an enormous memory which can distract the path of a spiritual person.
Being spiritual means being bliissful within ourself.
I personally love hugging and see nothing wrong with it😍
Finally my reluctance to hug clearly explained by sadhgru...I was insulted and psychologically bullied for not liking and agreeing to hug cause I don’t like the touch or energy exchange of certain people, it’s make me feel disturbed when I sense other people’s energetic memory...in reality I just comfortable with greeting someone with eye contact...thank you sadhguru, Om Namashivaya 🙏
🙏🙏🙏
And My liberal friends blamed me for practising brahminical hegemony or something of that sort when I didn't want to hug ...😂 ...
👍👍👍🏳️🏳️
True.
Sadhguru tries to make a fool of everybody by justifying every ancient hindu thing through science which is nothing but a piece of crap. He feeds on our ego that our culture is the best. The man is just some pandit from some gaun who has become mainstream through English language
Every single morning my son and I hug. We started because he was arriving from work as I was heading to mine. Its a wonderful thing!NAMASTE💫💞💫💞💫💞💫💞💖💫💖💫💝
I think hugging and kissing loved ones strengthen the bond between them. It makes you feel special and loved. 🥰
He was not speaking against it....he was saying choose the right person.
He don't give a shit what you think...
My dear friend a Yogi saves his/her energy. A person who meditates should also keep this thing in mind because energy from a meditator is absorbed by others around him/her. It completely drains them if there are people who have weaker aura around them or who eats meat or have negative mindset. A Yogi suffers if he is around people for too long that's why they normally keeps distance.
@@tstanmoysamanta ⁹⁸8o8oooooooooooòo
Tanmoy Samanta, I agree with you 👌👌. Everyone doesn't have the same energy💞💞.
Not sure I agree with this, by hugging my friends and family members I always feel amazing positive energy and notice how it overall brings greater feeling of peace and love overall, not simply a nurturing feeling for me but for everyone. I have certainly never felt odd or negative energy from hugging people but that being said I don't give hugs to strangers. I will continue hugging my family and friends Sandghuru all due respect.
"...that being said I don't give hugs to strangers..." - That part. If you, your family and your friends are emotionally and physically fulfilled and with full of integrity, it works IMO.
Just because he says his view, does not make it true for everyone, I hug instinctively those who want a hug instinctively, it's all relevant to the individual. You are your own master.
This man is one of those puppets!
As always, take what adds to your life, let the rest go. I agree with you.
@@sebastianbolt7886 I Agree with you
Hugging a saint who is full of love and compssion is not harmful or an obstacle in anyway. It generates loving vibes in the person hugged.
Yes people will get positive vibes from saint. But Saint May get negative vibes 😂😂😂
Once a person of light is in the room animals, babies and the especially the opposite sex are instantly attracted. They want the Saints energy. On an ordinary scale, it's still not wanted when people try to invade a person's space - period. It's not good for the Saint. Invasion of privacy with their energy. 😬 I become what society calls a B* because I am protecting myself. And if I open my sacred loving light I am a supply - a meal to hungry wolves. You tell me whose getting the worse end of stick here in society.. Let it sink in.
@@msvenu544 The he/she is not a complete Saint yet😊
@@missjae4033 Then further spiritual progress is needed. Till then, protection from negative vibes by refraining from hugging is ok😊
Might be part of Amma's power...
Living is becoming so fucking complicated, I hug whoever I want, whoever needs it.
Brilliantly put, too fkn complicated! We all get drunk, party from time to time & everyone hugs everyone it’s brilliant ❤️👍
@@mikeyyoyo6464 yes, my friend we are one, we need each other, we need to stop this dehumanization, this guy knows and shares interesting things but we have to start thinking by ourselves and not to do and accept everything everyone else's tells us to. Send you a big hug.
Yully I had to put this up twice as one was deleted? Who wouldn't want a hug from you, you have a beautiful sweet smile. OO
It's not complicated..It's becoming more conscious than compulsive 😁
You’re fortunate to not absorb others sadness and confusion. I cannot hug or shake hands because it leave a kind of residue on my soul, as I absorb their inner emotions. The same happens with sexual relations.
That's why namaste and bowing is the best way of greeting. Never liked hugging and kissing each other's cheeks.
Correct
That has become so common with youngsters now... its a fashion, its trend, they feel its something superior way..
@@bignavin10 ya ..that's because of those "celebrities" they follow ..I have been called "gawar " by many because I couldn't control my laughter when I see people do it making stupid faces and utterring the muah muah sound ...🤣
There are ppl who criticize ppl like us by saying we're not modern enough
@@eddyed4713 I don't know why celebrities are brought into this topic
But it is also said that kids who are supposed to hug more grew up as happy adults .
Yeah. That's what he said. They should be hugged and played with by their parents sufficiently
Don't believe any guru blindly..that's all I want to say
@@ayushkumaryadav1073 best reminder ever!
Unless it goes with brutality.
Must not be with any random person.
That is how most children are harmed and parents remain blind to it most of time.
As a teen i have always felt this, i never wanted to hug anyone or get touched, i always felt like people are sucking the good energies off you when u hug them. I used to feel drained. Now i feel like my own energies are so strong that i don't need hug from strangers to make me feel good.
It's right... unless you get a hug from sadhguru 😁
@@janmejaypandey2424 i don't like being touched until i really love that person so it would be NO for sadhguru as well.
@@Jagritidhariwal Chill..Sadhguru is too sensible to make this mistake 😂
U r right.those who are spiritual..it happens
Yeah. I don't like rapists I want to kill them. So If I hug or hand shake someone . Sometimes I feel disgusted and uncomfortable after the encounter.
Its difficult balance between being nice to everyone you greet.
But my good energy is transferred to them so it's a selfless sacrifice.
not just in Indian culture, but also in, Japanese, Chinese and Korean, and many other cultures, hugging is avoided, it doesn't mean it was completely avoided, it used to be done in very very very rare cases.. Like Ram and Hanuman,,, mostly used to happen in friend circles..
In Japan it's not ok to hug even shaking hands is not common.
Even in India 🇮🇳 too
Very good 👌
Ya! India, Japan and South Korea share same culture and value.
i see. in indonesia too
In my culture too.
On some things I agree, but if I wish to really hug, I'll hug, even you dear Sadhguru are not for everyone. Same with diets, there is not one diet for all of humanity, not only one meditation for everyone.
th-cam.com/video/vWByAEGMaCU/w-d-xo.html
Yes, for me it's true. Transfer of energy and memory, in some cases .....you can feel negative energy.....
indeed
True
There is always something transmitted be touching, whether you feel it or not.
@@brizayden 🤜🏼🤛🏼AGREE! 🙅🏻♀️🙏🏼
Yes! definitely you can feel “negative energy” same as you can feel positive energy! Learn to stay grounded and get a sense of the negative from a distance. If your energy is positive, centered & strong, your energy will not be swayed into negative. If you do feel it, shake it off with your inner positive (amplify) Somebody with some negative energy does not necessarily mean they are bad or of ill intent but their vibration is low and possibly in need of some positive! WE ALL go thru various positive & negative energy thru life simply because we are made up of energy. The key is to always try to keep within a higher vibration as much as possible via a healthy mind & body which all comes from good nutrition, sleep, exercise, relationships, meditation. The human touch when given in a respectful way can be healing for both the giver & receiver! Do not fear a hug.
I also agree with the sentiment below made by Brayden Jack 👍🏼 but that is just both our opinions and we know what opinions are like 😉😅 may peace be within us all 🙏🏼🙏🏼 ☮️
choosing to hug a person you love feels so great and the body produces oxytocin, better than any medicine ,isn t it ?
Even a SMILE.
My son had cursed me, "That's not how it WORKS!", frowned, at my overnight ability to WALK!
MYy hip pain came back.
It hurt, and I was limping along.
I met BUZ!
An old friend.
He gave me a big smile as I began a mile hike, and suddenly my healing came back!!!!
Wasn't there a woman in india that was healing people with just a hug? lol. Sorry sadghuru... love you but I disagree.
@@aquaticplantsavage6625 Amma the hugger. What a great point. I think I have to disagree with him also.
he said people you love or like aren't concerned. the ones who he pointed are the systematic hugging when you meet people you don't even know. americans do it a lot. in france we kiss on cheeks a lot. even unknown people. that is what he pointed. it's ok with family and close friends.
listen again here: 5:58.
@@beautifulrose8619 this is different. this is her life's mission to give her own energy to other people in order to increase their consciousness.
this is a totally different thing. and people should think twice before going to see Amma. because it costs her a lot.
Hugging is very natural to our species. It's a simple, beautiful way to nurture a basic human need.
I’m not needy in that way but to those that are be well and hug 🙏 but couldn’t be me 😅
Hug yourself r consenting partners
Hug is an expression of love and affection, in India is it common to hug family and friends. In fact, it can uplift you and make you feel good. It is obvious that you not hugging random people, it is only known and close circle people fall under that category. In fact there is a Saintly lady in India who hugs people to heal them. People from far and wide go to her just for a hug, so nothing wrong with giving or getting a hug, positive vibes from one body get transferred to another.
Yes but dont forget that most humans are not capable or prepared to be useful in that manner, if you watch better most of the people around the globe are very toxic in their own ways and are not doing a great work with their basics of life. In this video its offered a knowledge which is useful and are going to do a good impact in most of the people, but it doesnt means that u cannot use in a powerful and good manner as you said, all depends on you, your capacities and clarity about what are you doing. And of course we cannot forget that when you are more of a public person the vast majority of your teaching are going to be basics in the sense of the circunstances in which you are involving yourself, in this case, this world which i think that i dont have to say how the people are living here because its very clear dont you think...?
For people who disagree they may not be with deeper understanding… Sadhguru didn’t say we shouldn’t hug… by hugging we can pass or share good our energy to weaker ones too… its all about what necessary and what’s not… Sadhguru❤️
i was hesitant about watching through the video, (because of the comments tbh) but now finishing, i see that it’s more than a question of should you or shouldn’t you hug someone. its about being conscious and maintaining a healthy integrity for yourself and your body.
Don't ever question Indians. They know everything.
Right you are.We did know.
Egotistical comment
It’s funny how people with the best intentions can such racist and harmful things
The topic is avoid as much as possible.
If you only hug your siblings parents child or spouse. Then it would create deep memoroes.
He is saying this because he believes in finding the true yourself.
Less memory easier the path.
I do understand that....less memory easier path.
“Sadguru where is my hug “
“It must be with you”
Literally Me all the time 🤣🤣
I laugh so bad when our dear gurú said that
Notice you only put a heart like on people who agree. I can't wrap my head around this concept. I do agree that some cultures and people don't like touch, but to generalize and say what this "guru" says as to be the truth is cray cray. I've listened to some of his talks and he is okay. In my opinion, he is trying too hard to look and sound like he is important. My gut instinct is turned off by him. I clicked to hear because the title is so off. Whatevs.
SADHGURU
This actually explains a lot ... Not just physical touch. I could be sitting on a train absorbed in my book and be disturbed by someone sitting at a distance who is staring at me. Nowhere near close enough to touch. A sort of 6th sense. How many times have I walked down a quiet street and been startled by the presence of another person behind me who wasn't there before. And this person not even close enough to touch, making no sound.
I had that exact experience in class during college. I was in the back, the person was in the front, this person literally to turned around kept staring at me. I was aware this person was staring yet I never looked kept working on my assignments, however it very uncomfortable.
@@akumaku7930 why it made you uncomfortable?
May i know why?
@@bewusstsein3527 Sure, Its their energy/vibration didnt set well. Their stare was hungry eyes wanting something..
@@akumaku7930 didnt sit well.. okay.. how do we detect it? Do we have 6 or 7th sense aside from tge normal 5 senses? How can we use it and the enrgies that sorround us?

This is to be taught to every teen classmates in the world 😭😭😇😇
Lol so many people just not getting it in the comments. I mean I understand you hug everyone in your culture but Indians naturally keep a distance. It only changed after young teens of 2015 started thinking it was a cool thing to do. Runanabandha is real. If you think about a friend who hugged you recently, you're body will instantly remember the feel of that person's hug. You don't want no accumulation of unwanted energies around you, do you?
That's true.. Even I feel really irritated when people come very close to me, you know near a certain boundary. No matter what their gender. Physical contact has never been my thing.
Wow, thts true👍🏼
So if I see somone lying on the floor and needs help I should not try to lift him up even if he is in the middle of the road, because I would affect him/her negatively because of runanabandhana?
@@redshift8302 Now you are purposely exaggerating it. You very well know that's not what we mean when we talk about Runanabandha. Your reply is so childish, simply to argue about something you didn't fully understand. Don't @ me again I won't waste my time. Thanks.
Hahhahah wow you understood very well, but how do you know that hugging with another can accumulate energy from that person, are you on weed ,like your guru? There are many western countries who are much more prosperous and developed than India, but hugging is part of their culture, so by your bullshit each one of them might be ready to explode from the accumulated energy spirit bomb bullshit, grow.up kid!
This is one of the most interesting things I have learned, thank you, SadGuru🙏🏽
For corona reason may be,,but in reality hug is very important for selfless and lovely humanity
Human touch is necessary and vital and should be done with absolute consent, love and mutual respect. It should never be forced.
If you are uncomfortable, then politely decline. Easy-peasy.
My Godness - the way he articulates with a good command over English. I think Sadguru is a phenomenon now after Swamiv V and Sri Aurobindo.
If I feel like......I hug😄😄I don't have this fear that the energy from others can harm me. I am whole and I am within love😉😄😄💜
They learn English in school from the beginning , you know, cuz the UK invaded them awhile ago…
@@lisathomas1622 True
Humans are made to love other humans. Hug is a way of doing that. Don't unnecessarily complicate things. Love people don't hate in the name of religion, caste, culture, nationality etc.
🥱
I AGREE, I AM BEING AWAKENING NOT COMPULSIVE. THEN I HUG WHOEVER I WANT BY CHOISE NOT FROM DESPERATION
Hugging is wonderful.It's love.People do what makes you happy.Hugging makes me happy.No one can make you happy except yourself.Make use if your own brain don't let others think for you.
I love your comment ☺️
@@letchumytheresa8970 Thank you.Stay safe.Be happy and hug someone.
Yes 👍
I love hugs too! I don't just hug anybody, though. I've definitely experienced that negative transfer of energy. Now I'm discerning and I only hug those I have determined to be worthy of my hugs and that's ok too.
@@MN-zh2vd Have an open heart.Don't believe on negative energy;it only controls your life instead of you controlling it.
Insightful....people need this information and knowledge about physical memory....less discussed topic...
🙏🙏
Correct and I strongly agree. It was also explained scientifically. What a great great idea. Salute to you Sir.
It might be that I wasn't hugged a lot as a baby but it sure feels good to me to give hugs. I don't ever recall being pushed away and hope I can give my feelings of a hug to others.
Keep on hugging Renee. XX00
EVERYONE SHOULD UNDERSTAND THIS. I DONT UNDERSTAND WHY YOU HAVE TO TOUCH SOMEONE WHO IS NOT YOURS. like really...? maintain the space please.
Hugs are embracement. A hug is a hug. Nothing more or less even the closeness of each other.
Hug from a stranger, totally understandable, but your own kids. It’s been proven kids become more independent as adults the more love you give.
So in other words more love kids receive less dependent on you
@@samanthagibson979 my children from infancy they understand when and who they have to hug, when we as parents hugs children,they get a sense of security,so they can know exactly what is a hug. Hug is just one way for kids awareness, independence is knowing, temporary freedom as to growing up in age.
@@nalinibisnauth8491 the whole video just went over your head isn't it?
@@devgurera where do you expect it to go, by the way seems like it fits in your head??? Good videos.
Goosebumps Sadhguru, words you spit are nothing but only wisdom.
Wow. Thank you for this. Just what I needed to hear.
I prefer it when people do not touch me let alone hug me. Unless it’s certain family I prefer no hugging, but I do reciprocate if people hug me as it would be rude not to
My mom held me all the time when I was a baby, even took me to interviews. Carried me while cooking. But I am guessing as I got older my mother became emotionally unavailable because she was a single mother of 3. I don't remember my father at an early age 🤔 only from 13 and up. I will definitely discuss this in Therapy thanks Guru, I have always said I was a hugger but now I see the deeper meaning behind it 😉
You sound like a kind and compassionate person. I think it's strange that a kind and caring gesture towards others is tantamount to a failure to thrive. I think people who were not embraced enough by their mothers can have a greater understanding of the importance of a simple hug. It doesn't mean you're needy or flawed as this man suggests. It's just him using a narrative to fit his culture ,his way of life ...his opinion. Of all the things in life we can choose to make ourselves better people, to stop hugging one another isn't one of them. We should stop all the shooting, cursing, hating, hurting, ostracizing, ignoring, killing, marginalizing, bullying, torturing, murdering, abandoning, lying, raping, abusing, humiliating, and all the other evil things people do to one another....but hugging? Hugging doesn't belong on this list.
this explains what i have been experiencing perfectly. Thank you
I'm a sensitive person and don't hug socially. I don't feel the need to hug people often at all, but there are times when a hug seems congruent to the situation.
Hugging is the most beautiful thing.
Very interesting philosophy however I respectfully disagree that we are separate from each other. The ego would have us perpetuate this illusion but we are one consciousness permeating all of eternity not separated beings searching for enlightenment.
My exact sentiments. Thank you 💖🙏🏼.
Same 🙏🏾❤ thank you. We are all connected. I send love to everyone... we are all pieces of one energy.
He is talking about the physical integrity, it's too much burden for the body, you took it to mental
Now this is what a philosophy sounds like 😂
@@janmejaypandey2424 It's not a philosophy; it's the truth. And if you'd start to listen deep within yourself, you'd find that too. I know that one day it will be your turn, and you will definitely remember theses words. I'm sending you much love, clarity and encouragement on your journey 💜🌹💫.
i hugged so many people and i don't feel any different. love is different from a hug. love is emotional and spiritual. hugs are physical.

Sadhguru is the best live blessing I have ever got in my life
These things are never taught for me when I am growing! So sad when thinking of the past and so glad to know these things now! I will raise my child properly without putting them into a cart and push them wherever I go or leave them in a separate cot for them to sleep. I will keep them with me all the time!
Don't be a helicopter parent. Kids have to grow learn that everything isn't perfect in life.
🙏🙏 Always a beautiful learning ❤️
Thank you Mystic world for this wisdom.
🙏🙏🙏 my pleasure
This is such a helpful talk. I don't like people in western society that get too touchy feel-y. Respect peoples' spaces.
This is just a “cultural” opinion- Respectfully, I disagree- In the Latin cultures we give two kisses, we hug , we hand shake- all these are signs of respect-
I have Latin friends, and their parenting need to improve. Don't be mad. It is not about whole race but we can improve individually.
Does this mean then that people who are uncomfortable with hugging and kissing people they don't know and if they refrain from imitating this 'culture' are disrespectful? If one is in the Latin countries and one doesn't want to hug someone else but shows respect in their own way I think it should be acceptable. The same way 'culture' shouldn't override the individual.
Not during corona times though.
An eye opener! Thanks Sadhguru ❤
Eye open to see he is fake
Thanks for sharing!
No wonder I tend to avoid hugs and handshakes. I have been brainwashed to think that I am crazy without knowing love. Thank you!
Thank you sadhguru...
I think hugs are very important there was a lady in the store oh young lady and she was crying because she lost her job and she didn’t know what she was going to do for income so I said to her come here Can I hug you that helped her and another lady after I hugged the girl she went and hugged her as well I think she needed that and it made her feel good Maybe it just depends on what country you come from I live in the USA
Wow this was so spot on. Love this man
Thank you for this video. It helped deeply explain how I’ve been manipulated in the past
So body won't change memory by changing food habits or location but will adopt new memory by just touching and hugging ... 🤔
If u touch and hug only with a certain level of involvement. Otherwise its just another physical gesture.
some huggin is medicine .. and just like air it's needed it's oxgen for some and we sure can use it live it and breath it. Not everythin you read or hear sometimes is bad for you. if someone is in need of a hug i will not struggle against positivity . sometimes givin someone a hug is part of the cycle of givin and recieving .. sometime a hug will nurish someone with light that's a good thing.
Wow I'm amazed 😮 Crazy information ❣️
Excellent explanation. Thank you so much sadhguru
Sushmita: back in the day growing up mums close relatives who traveled from afar hugged and kissed which was acceptable... suddenly couple if years down the line people who was not family expected hugs & kisses which I was never comfortable with to this day! Fir me a warm greeting and smile from the 💟 is more appropriate. re- social distancing and everything that's goes with it... I welcome 🙏
Hugging is very important even in Indian culture. Sadguru is overflowed here.
In India hugging is not general. Yes we do hug our own family members or people known to us, but not randomly anyone or just met people. People here talking about giving pleasure/happiness/support by hugging and a change of mood by hormone release, but personally if I am sad/suffering, I would like to have a person beside me who can listen to me, encourages me, give mental support so that I can overcome the situation not just only a temporary change of mood by hormone release. No outsider (including family members) can change my sufferings unless I myself willing to change it. And this covid period must have teached the world not to get into physical contact randomly by hugging or shaking hands as it spread diseases.
Beautiful revelation, Sadhguru. I feel like hugs and embraces work just fine if both parties carry positive vibes, or even either one is highly positive. It definitely helps the one with less positive vibes. Hugging has its own miraculous healing in some circumstances. Practising it moderately and only when needed, would be wise =)
One of the most mystical experiences I’ve had in my life was when I received darshan hug from Amma! 🙏🏼💞
Yes Amma hugging is a very different exchange than average people hugging
hmmmmf I dont think such...something off with that one
That reminds me my childhood with grandparents in village ancestral home where many people come and go in busy agrarian social life, but never would any member of the family or visitors touch each other while greeting each other, but a humble namasthe 🙏. There was no reasoning taught to us, nor did we seek to understand, but followed it as custom.... pandemic teach humanity customs are rolled out from generations out larger science than modern.
It took a long way to understand it, after modern education, plum job, money, possessions towards senior citizens🤔.
Astonishingly Supper
Sadhguru talk is extremely important for youths about Concious decision & Conciousness.
I have been through all this and struggled a lot. Thank God I am not Entangled any more and free of all this. 🙏🙏🙏 Thanks a lot ❤️
Glad you made it out through all this
I have had people that I don't know or barely know touch me, sit near me, ask for hugs, all in an effort to steal my pure energy. The more sensitive and more aware you become, the more you will know the truth of this. Thank you, Sadhguru for speaking up on this subject. Even Jesus asked who touched him and he said he felt the power flow out (the story of the woman with the issue of blood.) Luke 8:46 And Jesus said, Somebody hath touched me: for I perceive that virtue is gone out of me.
Thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge about Jesus 🙏🙏🙏
Beautiful aura or good energy come from inside... the more pure inside we have the more it’s shining ... not every one have this good inside ... with the touch they wanna have a part of it ... I call them energy vampire... PS: it’s good that we have social distance time.)
On the flip side, a hug has great value and meaning. It can instill hope, love, comfort and so much more. Study after study shows the importance of human touch and how serious mental and emotional disorders stem from lack of touch. And if it is love we are choosing to share with another then exactly how is this harmful to anyone? Twice in my life while hugging two different people, our hearts began beating in unison and we were aware and surprised by this so to me, a hug has more power than we realize, it can bring people together in a way other forms of touch can't. A hug is a loving warm non-sexual gesture which I believe should be encouraged with willing participants. There is a big dif between the loving touch of a hug and what transpired with Jesus. The woman who touched Him reached out with FAITH and because of her faith she was rewarded and healed. Jesus noticed her touch because her faith triggered His healing power and He felt this. Trying to compare a hug with this experience is completely erroneous and loved by the video poster...no great surprise as one who walks without the true light of this world likes to drag as many as possible into the hugless, lonely pits....just like the governments...stay six feet apart...don't touch, don't breathe in each other's presence....and now...don't even hug....what next...don't talk to each other as it may disrupt the sanctity of your perfected thoughts? That's actually not a far cry from the ridiculousness of not hugging each other, the one human physical act that perfectly shows human kindness, compassion and love.
It’s called proxemics, every culture has it and it varies but to connect one culture’s proxemics and traditions to changing your DNA is a bit of a far stretch. Many indigenous cultures in the pacific and the Americas exchange salt, touch and breath. What about the healing power of massage, physicians, nurses, occupational and physical therapists all through touch. I respect Hindu tradition of not touching and do not think that other cultures having different proxemics is to be judged negatively.
Please include in your studies, Epigenetic understanding.
Some folks can feel someone who is angry, enter a room without even seeing them. Someone who is upset, who touches you, can make you feel weird..you are feeling that other person’s energy. And vice versa.
And, what are feelings, if not chemical cascades of processes inside the body?
And, what happens when from some chemistries; don’t some of them have impact on our DNA expression?
And, when there is enough of reactions, enough impact, changing the way certain genes express, isn’t that a genetic impact?
It’s known, proven fact, that an emotionally traumatic event of sufficient severity, can change the abused person’s brain structure, too..not just their minds & emotions…because…In order to change the anatomical structure, the issues must also affect how involved genes express.
What we consume, daily, affects our epigenetics…”consume” includes everything, everybody, we encounter, all the moments we live. Any of it can potentially change how our genes express.
@Sai Keerthana Krishna Kumar what culture do I come from? Your comment is pompous, pretentious, and assumes a lot, yet here you are preaching spiritual progress 🤨
@Sai Keerthana Krishna Kumar I too am surprised that you comment with such certainty on a topic you know nothing about as a valid argument. You know nothing about me, my heritage, my upbringing yet are able to comment on it from your place of perceived spiritual mightiness. I understand by your comment that you are offended by me not agreeing with Sadhguru, who ironically lives in the west, however I am just mentioning that other ancient cultures such as Polynesian or most indigenous Americans & African rely on touch for healing and kinship, without putting some imaginary status on any culture. Some spiritual advise, I think your ego is getting in the way of your reading comprehension. Aloha 🤙🏽
@Sai Keerthana Krishna Kumar once again please read the original comment and the last sentence twice, read your response, and then tell me I am rude and unfair 🤦🏽♀️the ego extends to nationalism, fanatics, and the inability to allow others have a pragmatic view.You can believe whatever you wish and so may I, and comment on our perception of it.
Pranam Guru Ji
Thank you and amazingly explained.
With prayers 🙏

Very good point
I’ve also learned hugging or kissing someone without consent violates a persons space.
Next level!
Thank's a lot for putting touching and beeing touched to the right place!
very interesting counsel.
4:54 If nobody gives salt, how do you buy salt? And isn't buying salt then potentially a problem? Or if you set it down do the memories it contained leave? Or is it just that certain things are conductors of memory?
That topic probably should have been omitted entirely if that's all the explanation/info he can share...
'this is just the same way of thinking which created the untouchables and touching the masters feet etc but that which is never touched by anything in the world that is the abode of Truth/God,
in my opinion this way of thinking creates some snobbish attitude which is not that natural as children and animals flow in their play together touching/ hugging/ teasing fighting etc expressing joy health and Life
Thanks amazing information
God is love and we are made in god's likeness so we express love
And a hug is an expression of of love
So hugging is good
Sex also involves love. Why not fuck around with everyone? But this seems like a problem to many people. People should just become swingers if we go by this
LOVE my hugs. Giving AND getting them 🥰
You’re amazing Sir 👁👁
He is fake
I truly understand Indian culture and traditions..
Woww, v helpful talk
Thank you so much 🙏
🙏🙏🙏
Indian culture now is superficial we have forgot to touch and hug completely if you like friends you must hug them
Jerry *finally* feels vindicated.
(One of my favorite "Seinfeld" episodes.) 😅🥰😇
*WORSE is the kiss* that people erroneously presume comes with greeting.
I am such an ancient soul with such a youthful spirit inside such a young body. I view integrity as *wholeness,* _integrating_ all parts of Self.
I am so grateful and thankful to my family, most especially my mother, for giving me *many* hugs, and much physical contact.
A healthy balance, so that I do not crave it, and so that I do appreciate and am discerning with my energy.
I don’t even hug trees when I’m sad or down. I know they’re healing, but I’m always cautious not to pass any negative energy unto them.🙏🏽💚
Wonderful upload; thanks.
Devine Soul.
