Following a spiritual experience at the age of 25, Sadhguru Vasudev became a mystic; he started conducting yoga classes to share his inner experience with the aim of making ancient yogic sciences relevant to contemporary minds. The Sadhguru founded the Isha Foundation which now has more than two million volunteers, and over 150 city-based centres world- wide. In 2012 he was voted among the hundred most powerful Indians.
ABOUT THE OXFORD UNION SOCIETY: The Oxford Union is the world's most prestigious debating society, with an unparalleled reputation for bringing international guests and speakers to Oxford. Since 1823, the Union has been promoting debate and discussion not just in Oxford University, but across the globe.
The only talk of Sadhguru I have heard where the Audience seemed nonexistent!!!
Shahed Sabir , maybe that's their way of soaking in all what he is talking about.
@@tulifranz9336 beyond their mental capacity
That's listening with rapt attention. 🙏
No cacophony, no screaming and no holding by the goat though no one was restricting any of them from doing so. 🙏🙏🙏
Totally agree.
I'm British and I can safely say we're not all made of stone :-) sadhguru is the wisest man love you dude !!!
very sad, many British I met were made of stone and they seems have gave up hope in life.
Gary Bradshaw, the beauty is he is available to all of us on the globe. Look at his humility and paying so much respect to holy and unholy crap. He invites us to join him. Don't miss this opportunity.
Please dont get me wrong but my stay in Europe in Germany, I heard from many Europeans telling me Germans and British people are among the coldest people. Ofcourse one should not generalized the whole country just from bunch of idiots.
I think it's just Oxford, not all British lol. They're all too uptight to live life.
Gary Bradshaw be honest dude WTF is wrong with Oxford.. what is it's true face, look at the depressing audience
Wisdom for all. He is not asking you to believe; he asking you to seek.
TheFamous35 The best best to put, seeking instead of believing by other means!
he not asking you to seek, he is askin you to ask yourself whether you have to or need to see if you can believe if you can seek or seek to believe if you can so
TheFamous35
True! And before you seek, you have to first acknowledge your ignorance in terms of personal experience (subjectively) about what you are to seek.
In fact, he is not asking anything to anyone, just replying to questions..
Seek wat
He himself does not know
Don't worry about the audience-pay attention to the speaker
Exactly.
The speaker is an idiot
@@shivunplugged8527 Awww! What happened kid?
You seriously got no clue what you are talking about, do you boy?

This guy is so cool and hypnotic, but I had no idea who he was. Thanks for introducing me Oxford Union!!
Check out Sadhguru's TH-cam channel, there's a nice '2016 year in review' video - an awesome intro to Sadhguru if you've not come across him before. :-)
he is better than god
@The Great Belisarius - You would learn more from Maharishi Mahesh than this bore.
LIZZIE IS A BITCH ASS LIZARD
he is very famous Guru of Asia..
In this busy world people don't know what to eat, how to live, etc. SadhGuru is a Man of Wisdom. He is still living in this planet. In my opinion, those who are seeking for wisdom should learn some thing from SadhGuru. Even my son , a University Graduate from the United States, like his way of teachings. My son sent me this video. Please take a look.
agree..
Hai Sir I know you are a yogic master.i have a great respect for you, May u spread the light to the world

@@MazBringsby could you please elaborate how fraud is he?

No words! So appreciative of this being's wisdom and understanding of the human condition.
Jagadish Vasudev OBVIOUSLY possesses an above-average intellect (although he often makes truly inane statements, such as “plants are more sensitive than animals, and they scream in pain when being eaten”).
However, if anyone considers him a "Sadhguru" then kindly explain to me how a so-called "prophet” (Jagadguru) can possibly support the two most PERNICIOUS institutions in the history of the world...
F.I.S.H. Paragraph 28. Feminism is the penultimate evil at present because feminism is based on the misguided assumption that women are equal to or even superior to men. Although a female can exhibit superior traits, skills, etcetera, to some men, a woman can never have AUTHORITY over a man. Truth be told, no true man would ever descend to the level of accepting counsel from any of his subordinates. A man should fully obey his appointed masters and never emasculate himself by submitting to the dictates of a female. Feminism and democracy are guaranteed to destroy society, as can be clearly seen at present.
However, feminism will NEVER EVER be destroyed until the most pernicious institution is first destroyed:
F.I.S.H Paragraph 26. Democracy is evil because the masses will invariably choose the murderous Barabbas over the good King Jesus. This planet is surely doomed unless the most pernicious institution ever known to man (democracy) is replaced by the only legitimate form of government (monarchy - preferably a good monarch, though even a bad king is preferable to being ruled by an elected official who can never be good). Most of the problems in human society are directly or indirectly attributable to this relatively modern phenomenon, since it is the government’s role and sacred duty to enforce the law. Just because good and bad are relative, does not imply that they do not exist. They do exist but are relative. A democrat can never be good, despite appearing so.
One of the many sinister characteristics of democracy, communism and other evil forms of governance, is the desire for their so-called “leaders” to attempt to control or at least influence the personal lives of every single citizen.
For example, in the wicked, decadent nation where this holy scripture was composed, The Southland (or Australia as it is known in the Latin tongue), the demonic government tries and largely succeeds in controlling the rights of parents to properly raise, discipline and punish their children according to their own morals, limiting legitimate powers an employer has over his servants, persecuting religious leaders (even to imprisonment and death, believe it or not) and even trying to influence what people eat and wear. Not that a government shouldn’t control what its citizens wear in public, but it should ensure that they are modestly dressed, which is hardly the case in Australia and similar nations. Basically, the worst of the democratic governments promote or at least permit all things contrary to God’s perfect and pure will such as adultery, fornication, prostitution, pornography, homosexuality, gambling (even running lotteries themselves), illegitimate abortion of poor innocent unborn children, irreligion, drug addiction, disrespect for authority and promoting materialism and ignorance via a powerful network of institutions of miseducation (so-called “schools, colleges and universities”).
Let it be known however - democracy can not and will not endure. The truth shall triumph!
Democracy is only acceptable within large business corporations, where the shareholders must vote on who will be the company bosses and other matters.
To read the remaining chapters of “A Final Instruction Sheet for Humanity”, which are the most accurate spiritual precepts so far in human history, Email me with the acronym “FISH” in the subject field.

“The gateway to KNOWLEDGE is ignorance”. 🤓
I feel it is unfair to blame the audience. We need to understand that we are naturally acquainted and oriented to our culture. As a result whatever Sadhguru says we can very easily relate to. However, for the people like these it may take some time and it is perfectly fine. I am really very happy to see that at least they are willing and this itself paves the way for great possibilities.
May we all know this piece of LIFE in its entirety by his grace and blessings.
With love
From India
This guy for some reason does not stress or think, he has always been like this. He is basically blessed.
Don't believe everything you THINK. 🧠
Incidentally, Slave, are you VEGAN? 🌱
I love Sadhguru. He's sensible, effective and pleasantly funny.

“The gateway to KNOWLEDGE is ignorance”. 🤓
I am just left spellbound. The mystic himself imparting the profound wisdom of ancient yogic sciences. This is the most relevant thing today. Oxford has done a great job. Our idea of science is very constipated. There's a whole science and technology in the realm of consciousness. The time has come for the world to not believe in any dogmatic religion and try it out and see for itself what place can an inner quest lead them to. Amazing session. Namaste from India 🙏
I love this guy.
He is modern day swami vivekananda
He is not Vivekananda or Buddha, he is the one and only Sadhguru :)
Brilliant talk. As a university student, I believe his words must be taken seriously by everyone pursuing higher education.
By anyone who wants more from life than simply surviving!
I don't think you understood his speech
@@Chris-ri4qs I don’t think you understood Rajiv Iyer.
First remove your Iyer in your name .. the biggest mistake of humanity
@Julian Walker, 40:25 to 43:20 is for you.
If you are truly interested in truth, put your prejudices aside and try to see what Sadhguru is trying to tell you.
There comes a rare being every thousand years or so, I think we must accept that we do not know and try to benefit from his presence rather than childishly wasting our time in preassumptions and single-minded arguments.
Good luck.
Seems @Julain Walker is not interested in that. His interest lies in driving traffic to his videos to sell his yoga classes more.
I have more respect for his school of thought than oxford's :)

This is nice to say only Sadhguru has no school of taught no Philosophy.
Its the Indic school of thought ! The yogic school, one among the 6 Dharshanas that are the pillars of indian understandings of the nature of reality.

I am so Touched inside ..
Thank You SadGuru Ji
Your Fan and a Freind a and a Student from now on
XYZ Tibetan ...
Sadhguru would not agree spreading around words like "holy". He doesn't believe so there is no man like figure in the sky and certainly he would if existed consider certain parts of his creation "holy" and others not. holy is a name made up by people who pretend a more important man from their origin walked this peace of earth
I can never get enough of Sadhguru speeches. He has helped me learn about myself.
It's good to see that they recognised the right individual and invited him to explain certain things. It's very unfortunate that most people will not realise the reality of things because the disastrous religions and new age stuff has made an impression in their minds that there is nothing that's mystical in nature, there's nothing that physical sciences cannot grasp. But the science has come to a crossroads where physical has ended and now they are talking about non physicality. This man has mechanisms, experience, capability, strength, compassion to impart the world. Anybody who is reading this, please be a little more open to this being especially. Because I've personally realised that he is a possibility of going beyond physical. He is the doorway. You don't have to believe me. Just be sincere and listen to him and if you get a chance then be in his presence. After that, if you think it's no good, then never return to him and you can even criticize him vehemently. But just don't deny this possibility in your life. My greetings.
Stephen Brown exactly bro I think thay these matters are to be given thought. Even great minds such Neil deGraase Tyson has also stated that we only know about 5% of whats around us. Thus in my opinion we should keep our options open rather then hitting our head on an imaginary road block.
Only 4% of all of our Universe is physical. We can experience only that much of it, thanks to the limits of our senses and our brain. The remaining 96% is called Dark Matter and Dark Energy. Richard Panek has written a book, "The 4 Percent Universe", which explains its discovery rather well, accepting that we may never actually know this 96%.
Also, I think it's the difference of perceptions. The Indian culture, in general, has propounded a different approach to life. The ancient people never payed as much attention to understanding the science of life, as they did to develop the best ways to live it. I sometimes feel, that after going all around, all of the world, including our modernizing (hand-in-glove-westernizing) India, will realize that the ancient Indian way to live is the best.
Planet Unknown, yes, I tried to address your question. I say "tried", for I did not actually explain how we comprehend the non-physical. But, this is now scientifically established that 96% of the Universe is non-physical. We know only this much. What does it comprise of is still an astronomic mystery (or question, if you will)! Richard Panek, as I mentioned earlier, talks about various experiments which led us to the non-physical part of the Universe. Later, some scientists called it dark-matter and dark-energy. Even these terms are not defined well. Sometimes you'll see particle physicists and astronomers use the term "empty space", which again is non-physical, and not well-defined. So, we just know that there's something non-physical, but we haven't actually understood what it comprises of.
In both, philosophy and science, "nothing" has been a very important concept. The scientist like Lawrence Krauss says that "something" can come from "nothing" and he defines "nothing" as "empty space". I, too, cannot understand how "nothing" can be defined as anything. Yet, he defines it as "empty space". How can human mind ever get the concept of "nothing"!
***** There's a video on TH-cam where Lawrence Krauss is in discussion with Richard Dawkins, where he clearly mentions that astronomically, "nothing" can be equated with "empty space". He went on to say that it could be proved how from "empty space" matter can come into existence. I think this implies that there was no matter in "empty space"/ "nothing". So, "nothing" IS a concept in theoretical and astronomical physics, you see? I stand corrected over that only 4% is physical comment. I meant to say that it's only that much we can know of through our senses.
***** I agree. The rest of the spectrum is not non-existent. We just can't see it. Yogic sciences also say something similar... For example, the 3rd eye, which when awakened, helps you to experience things that were previously non-existent for us because of the limits of our sensory organs. The West has translated these terms into English, and then made them sound like a bunch of "woo woo" terms. Another term is "vivek", which was poorly translated into Arabic, as "zameer" and then into English, as "conscience". Vivek, once awakened, will be one's best faculty, one's best guide to get the best experiences of life.
Fantastic person, if you want to embrace being human listen to him.
Sadguru is Einstein of yogic sciences
Sharath Reddy I totally agree! He's so wise beyond his years! I just love his teachings n wish he was our president of the Untied States !!!😊✌👳♂️❤ namaste my friend!
Hey u r insulting sadguru ...don't say him Einstein he is sadguru ....no any scientist ever can be compared with him ...did u get that...
*science*. lol.
Dude you got to the conclusion without clarity of your thought and truth. You are a Fake sadhguru follower!
@@sunny_dhende6289 namaste thanks for respecting Indian culture,. You are very nice..women...i respect you thinking..thanku
.. dhanyawad
Why do they bother, these auspicious beings, to sit and talk to empty rooms? It never ceases to amaze me even as I'm immensily thankfull that they do. I mean, I know how I feel if I have something important to convey and I'm met with halfhearted attention. I can't even imagine how it would make me feel if I was extending the key to existence to someone and that someone smiled distractedly at me for a moment and then went on with the smartphone.
EDIT: He learned to laugh at everything, so it's ok. Pranam Sadhguruji
Sadguru making moves in the UK...
YESS!!
Constipated British audience.
A little surprised to see Sadhguru on here but I've subscribed to his teachings.Not that100% of the time I agree but he does make valid points.
Sandra Stone instantly I too sometime can't agree upon certain talks but later most of the time I have figured it out. What I think maybe my experiences of life fall short to grasp His all ideas
Stop listening. Start applying. Things will become clear at a faster pace.
Sandra Stone you can be sure most of the times, that you don't agree because you lack the insights or because you didn't take it the way he meant it..
Arrogance can be wiped out, keep listening to him.
+Sandra Stone It is good to be skeptical. He says he himself is so. You are in good company.
why are people commenting on the audience?
they are paying attention, it's called being polite.
it's not a 1 to 1 convo so as a group they assume questions are rhetorical.
negativity toward people you don't know shows you need to listen to the brother Sadhguru more.
SISKIYOU you know an audience the way they respond to a phenomenal person's words. You sense that almost immediately. People are here just expressing what they felt different between them and this audience
SISKIYOU looks like old guy bought new phone today
Grave faces and politeness has difference
I think the audience are stunned and in stage of self reflection
The message of Sadhguru is going strongly through .
i thought oxford union have intellectuals.... there is an old man playing with mobile for so long..
rakhil s kumar he is reading an interactive article on intellect :p
he wasnt there of his own will but had to attend for his careers sake
the british made a great mistake in rejecting the french philosophy called existentialism which teaches that in all of life including our beliefs we should follow our hearts not our heads or our societys directives
be true to yourselves
thats how you build an honest life
universities are for people who can't listen to themselves :)
we need to reach outside ourselves for stimulation
Very intresting and full of great analogies like the mango tree, the airplane with cut off wings and humans transforming subtances, peace being the greatest aspiration in the Middle East but I too would have liked to hear more about how to move towards mental serenity.
A fun fact : in Hinduism the God is not the ultimate goal. Freedom, what we call 'mukti' is the ultimate goal. God is a stepping stone. He is relevant but only till the point when you are not free.
That's neither fun nor a fact.
atleast they are listening not like our Javed Akhtar who himself feels as a genius
Well said
Yeah
true
kidds caartoon videos world . Javed Akhtar is a good person Maybe. But certainly with a preset mind and not seem to accept others opinion.
Javed aktar slaps sadguru
He deserves it
Only same blabber
Unable to answer ANY QUES
Sadhguru: you really understood the world more than any one of us(so called educated). Thanks for your valuable speech.
I love him & his wisdom, Sadhguru is a real alive inspiration❤
A most enlightening and compelling talk by Sadhguru. Sadhguru guides us into realising how each one of us can actually awaken to our lives and make clear choices to achieve conscious awareness and joyfulness. Whether ones agrees or not, there is great deepness to his words and life to at least stop and ponder about. I commend The Oxford Union for bringing this wonderful talk to the public realm. The audience, however, seemed to be apathetic. Certainly an uneasy feeling of unresponsiveness to such a brilliant and worldwide renowned guest.
He is enlightent no question. I was going on a path and i studied Philosophie science and Religion to get enlightent because I thought knowing everything is inklusive. And i wanted to know everything but I realized to know everything you have to leave your body first :*( I was very delusional when I wanted to be the first human ever to REALLY REALLY KNOW.
I really appreciate Sadhguru! 🙏💓
For my spiritual journey I've also loved watching lots of Master Sri Avinash at the moment. #SriAvinashDo 👐
I feel as if my life has changed in such a beautiful way just from hearing his Satsang talks.
it's really amazing..... sadhguru keep showering your blessings to young people like us
Such a great man..We surely need more people like him to make this world a better place.
Namaskaram Sadhguru. Fantastic speech as usual.
superb wisdom from great master sadhguru
Namaskaram Shri Sadhguru ji.👑
We are blessed as a generation to have a guru and guide around.🙏❤
Is that Oxford? incredible, the more you study the less social you become. Having a Sadhguru with them and some checking their phones! Or maybe too simple questions for elevated souls.
they just couldn't accept the reality. Maybe they were checking their face in phone.
You learn to listen and accept things in school. You do not learn to think for yourself. Hence, the behaviour. If you ever went to an university you would understand. People torture themselves in the name of questionable slavelike lives. Torture because they're not really interested in learning the things they are taught. They are interested in lighting a bigger bonfire to satisfy their empty lives.
Just they can't understand.
thats crazy man..... i couldnt belive my eyse... so tired audience! its lack of respect...
Constipated British audience.
Listening to sadhguru is more important than watching the audience .... energy goes where attention flows!
Feels like this audience attended a funeral before coming to this tak...
😂😂😂
what a depressing bunch of people in the audience 🙄
Well they're at a school, what do you expect?
exactly, in an environment that is completely mind-dominated therefore they have difficulty grasping what he is talking about through their senses because they don't know how to use anything else then the mind :D
glutamin111 Even then...you can understand it with your mind. They're taught to be so fucking close-minded by society, only accepting what scientists, teachers, and books tell them. Fucking brainwashed.
@Batman - All those toffs at Oxford have quirks - safety valves. Odd bunch, even to me and I'm English. Them fellas (if you can call them that) will all be wearing suspenders under those suits.
They're so in FEAR of being TRIGGERED. Ha! Liberals.
Amazing!! Takes a whole new perspective on life!
Teacher inThailan new to you ;)
I remember when I was in University, and I can understand this crowd how they are anxious not to reveal that they also do not know much. They are suppose to know and be clever and here is a guru who claims that he is uneducated. Where does this kind of visdom come from and he does not just answer the questions with his sharp intellect, he is also using this indian psychology which makes western psychology look like kinder garden (which it is compared to indian) it sounds so simple and straight forward.
The questions from the students actually seems very confused....."where do You draw the line between ease of mind and apathy?" It is alarming that a student at this level does not have more insight into what it means to be human. Apathy does not come from ease, it comes from stress, it comes from not being able to find solutions to cope with life. It is perhaps in a way what we see represented here in this silent crowd of scholars.
A question like this should tell us that something is wrong with our education system. Science are so fascinated with our intellect and we believe so much in its capability that we are almost unaware about the functioning of the intelligence in the body/mind system as he points out in the goat being turned into human example. The further we distance ourselves from life, the being as such, in our belief in the intellects ability to find solutions - the further away we go from the simple message here of simply being human: enjoying the gift that life is.
The grass is always more green somewhere else, but should that make You sad? You woke up this morning while maybe a quarter of a million people didn't. Look at Your life and and that You have it in You. What are You going to do about it, with it?
Its a wonderful possibility, its all yours and You are free to use it as You please, and You also hold full responsibility for it:-)
Walk into the truth, the light and be honest with yourself. Life is just to great to not get turned on:-)
Please remain seated:
*everyone stands up*
Batman 🤣
He meant that they need to stay by their chairs, to give space for Sadhguru to leave.
They stood out of respect.
I've only just found this guy. But been on my own spiritual a few months now. Have completely changed from the person I used to b. My life has changed so much internally and out. Still going deeper inside myself. I now spend as much time in nature as possible. Changed what I eat to as organic as I can. Growing my own food. Always with animals. A few months ago being alone was my biggest fear. N tourture would have been to b trapped in my own head. Now I prefer to b alone n the notes in my own head has quietened down so much. I am more at peace n in awe of the world. And the thing I thought were bad in my life are now positive n learning experiences. I feel are emotion love as awe n wonder in the world now. It started with saying one good thing about myself in the mirror each day this took months to even b able to look at myself in the mirror n say one good thing. I now think more good things than bad about everything. I'm far from perfect but and still slip up in my thoughts. But I now ignolage when I do and correct my thoughts
Experience is your best teacher and it is free. I for one will forever be mesmerized by how fast plants grow when you don’t watch them day by day.
The greatness and richness of Indian Philosophy has sometimes been hidden by being tied to religion. The case in most of the rest of the world's cultures. Indian Philosophers are still leading the way. And their spiritual level remains in the realms of logic.
This is not philosophy this is experience of every yogi.. This experience... This is not philosophy bro..
Constipated British audience. Even the Indians living there become constipated.
that wat happens to people living in money driven society rather than value driven....
hahahaha
Drawin went to Edinburgh and Cambridge (Christ College). I am surprised not one in the crowd or the interviewer tried to tell him that. So much for scholars eh? :-) Yes, very constipated crowd.
I'm English and it's really constipated. But then again, the speaker is constipated. What a complete bore.
Aditi aher - My point was that it wasn't a very enthusiastic lecture. He's a wonderful man, but very uninspiring in this video. Having looked at it again, I think the audience has caused it. They are very materialistic from Oxford University generally and I think he had a hard time getting the audience to interact. I think he hasn't chosen the best audience to be compassionate of nature from the background in which the audience have come from. I don't see the point in trying to teach these sort of people. What did he find himself there for? They really do have an ego at Oxford. If he's so spiritual, which he is, why on earth did he choose people like this to lecture to. Why isn't he reaching out to less fortunate than the Oxford people, they have enough, too much in fact. Why isn't he with the sick or the poor or the humble. Why choose an arrogant lot. How did he find himself with them?
This man speaks so much sense and has been very helpful to me to feel more free and open my mind !
Audience in not dumb, people are really interested in jaggi's sentences but they r looking at everything from a logical point of view. Now i realized why jaggi says that only India is a country where ppl seek.
i pity the old guy in the front who kept on using his mobile in the entire speech. Shameful!
perhaps busy micro blogging over the internet
Nilay Kant And I pity you for not paying attention to the guru but searching for misdeeds in the audience. Learn from the gurus inner engineering lookat YOUR own faults and useless observation of others before judging others
You do realize you are sitting in front of a computer the entire speech, no?
Lol he was watching sadguru live on TH-cam
Maybe taking notes.
I guess most of the ppl in the audience had never seen the likes of Sadhguru!
Sadhguru saying 'hello' so many times is a new thing - don't know if they were really dull or just couldn't grasp what was being said!
How do you know? Are you a mind reader?
One of the most clear and concise ways of explaining how most of us think and feel.
This man is fantastic. He's changed my way of thinking.
Wonderful speech!
Amazing to listen to this man.. I won't believe him just as he said.. I will just seek and try to experience whatever the truth myself.
Outstanding talk. Thank you very much for sharing.
Wow.. Sadhguru it's full blessing just listening to ur voice.. I don't know if I'm understanding or not, I'm not sure but my tears r flowing,just listening to ur tone of voice..
i am very thankful to the Universe for Sadhguru
Brilliant man life lessons given and explained for free for the world it's Amazing, this man is amazing.
Profound wisdom
such a brilliant talk ..apt ending when he says our knowledge is small and ignorance is boundless ... especially apt for the surprisingly rigid audience at one of the top universities in the world ...whoever said education opens up our minds ...the more we think we know the more frozen our ideas seem to become ...I almost fell off my chair when the guy in the audience said "I don't know" when asked if his body was able to convert an apple into a human being ... hopefully there were a few genuine seekers there who benefited from this ...
I like how he bounce back questions to people asking. It's like i give u hints now it's your turn to truelly find the answers.. He makes you think
39 ppl have a digestion problem :P
junfan31 I put the 39th like to this comment :D
LOL
I absolutely agree with him
such a great man had visited and the what we see is a dull audience
He is not at all con man but straight talker, using plain language to convey truth. Thanks for his wisdom.
this man is incredible ,his thought process and the way he explains things are truly remarkable .you cannot but love this man
Why there so many negative people in the comments?
Why are they so suspicious?
Skeptical is fine.
Sadhguru went deep on this one giving clues on the amazement of ego death and enlightenment which is something we should all seek.
Really on Oxford Union!! Great accomplishment.
Guys this is what a real Hindu means full of intelligence, patience, manners, care and most importantly correct leadership 😇🕉
Same as a Sikh
@@guru430 a Sikh is also a hindu, a branch from the trunk
Had sadhguru ever said that he is hindu ?
As I watched this video and listened to Sadguru, and observed the Oxford University students' response to his talk, to his jokes, and to the incidents he described so vividly and humorously, a question arose in my mind: When students attend Oxford University, do they lose their sense of humor? Most of the students did not laugh at his jokes. I have heard him telling the same jokes to different audiences at several cities in India; the people laughed at his jokes heartily. But not at Oxford University, obviously.
Yesh Prabhu, Bushkill, Pennsylvania
Clearly the Oxford students are not smart enough to understand jokes, you have to write it down for them.
Every Time i watch this it becomes more profound
Sadhguru is just great. Thank you for the message you are sending to our world.
What a legend Sadhguru Juggi is, if you have a spare hour, listen to this.
Immense knowledge!
For enlightened, there is a lot of hope and positivity but, for those who are confused within they may think there is some conflict within his thoughts. Great talk, even though Oxford is mostly showing dullness, m thankful for inviting him and liberating such wonderful thoughts!
I wasn't aware of how minimal western yoga was. New insight for me. I am interested in how it is used properlly then.
Nice as always...
Respect Sadhguru
A brilliant scope for the oxford union to break through their rigidness and expand their possibilities in being at ease. An endeavour full of wisdom by sadguru.
SAdhguru is so graceful there are no words
When I started this video I thought of a debate between science and spirit, but half way through it, it's more like a monologue even when the speaker is encouraging a discussion. Alas! An opportunity missed...
were you in my head at 00:00
Science has nothing to say about the reason for the human existence. What dialogue could there be?
Fantastic. Thanks Oxford Union!
Sadguruji I can listen to you for hours and hours. You are a treasure of wisdom. May God give a very very long life.
Thank you so much for making this available to us.
Aum Namah Shivaya.Shambho☺😊💏
He knows to create a mystical environment with his words. Nothing else.
what is so great about this man is not what he knows but what he don't know, he is not afraid or ashame to tell you he don't know but he never stop there , that open the possibilities to seek for truth, and not just take in anything anyone tells you. such simple common sense is lacking. He did not give us a rule book on life and happiness but he use his words, like a key to open our locked mind and the rest is up to us.
The audience being quiet shows that they're actually listening and learning. When you have crowds that actively nod and agree or disagree with what the speaker says, they're just confirming their own biases. These people are probably thinking deeply about how the things they're hearing apply to their lives.
"Mushrooming up" he's dropping mad hints
those who disliked this video are suffering too
Mithun Kumar, because they believe in Fairy-Tales like their ancestors(eve & adam) float down from god's garden. Lol.
Thank you so much. Your reflection fills me with unconditional love for 'All' life everywhere. Bless your beautiful heart.
Honestly just a modern day genius. So in tune with the people. So in tune with the infinite.
An audience of near adolescents demented by their hormones and distracted by their technology will always be a challenge to the wisest guru always.
Near? They are past that, most of them look like in their mid-20s
@@richardwere4487 The Guru obviously did not teach them to be more observant, I think soundbites and mind games, possibly making a wider point?
actually, I do think the invitation to trash ones faith and foundation in lu of a spiritual separation from one's mind to devalue their education to be alive apart from all they are trying to achieve is information that would cause anyone to pause and think about. not embrace in an instant. these are not dumb people. I was impressed. the smartest of all will be exalted in places that will affect us all.
