Mumbai: Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev, known for his contributions in the field of yoga, spirituality, and environmentalism, is faced with a line of questioning from TV9 Network MD & CEO and ‘Duologue’ host Barun Das where new theories come to light. The exchange on spirituality being a ‘concept’ or a way of life draws out an animated conversation. In a bid to transit from complexity to clarity. Sadhguru talks about ‘Inner Engineering’ as the SOP for spirituality, but does it convince Das?
“Being in conversation with Sadhguru has been partly educational, and completely riveting. I admire his capability to indulge me on most occasions when my point of view is contrarian. His ability to assimilate and reflect on new thought processes is particularly impressive,” said Das.
Duologue with Das is a cerebral conversation with a legend or a legend in the making. As the title suggests, it is a two-way interaction to enable exchange of ideas in a free-flowing manner. Duologue is not provoked by headline management but to evolve emancipated influencer conversations.
The insights shared by Sadhguru on India’s role in the global arena and the importance of guiding the youth in the right direction added a new dimension to their Duologue, making it an unforgettable deliberation.
In response to Das's assertion that “Spirituality is born out of human minds,” Sadhguru said, “Concepts are made in human minds… it is not a product of your mind. If you keep your mind aside, you will become spiritual.”
Das shared three levers he manages his interfaces and life with. The first one is 'being true to his duty and himself,' the second, 'his belief of living and letting live,' and the third being 'consciously not harming anyone.' Sadhguru promptly called the definition of his ‘interfaces’ as ‘transactions of life’ and said, “Essentially, when you say interface, you’re trying to define your transactions with the world around you. It is important to separate the life of existence and life of transactions. Transactions are not your life; you are a life.”
Seeking clarity amid the complexity, Das demanded an SOP for spirituality that can be followed in daily life. Sadhguru joked about his ashram being a ‘Factory of Spirituality.’ However, he gave out the SOP with the help of a 20-second exercise and called the method ‘Inner Engineering’.
