Intelligence, says Sadhguru, is not in confusing people, but about making them understand what they could not understand. He explains that the way to know is not in thinking up philosophies, but in being in touch with reality. For more Sadhguru's insights, follow him on twitter and facebook.

If you want to do something for someone, says Sadhguru, the best thing is to do what they want, not what you want. Similarly, he explains, the best thing you can do for your guru is to drop your nonsense and grow. For more Sadhguru's insights, follow him on twitter and facebook.

Every form, Sadhguru explains, contains a hidden sound within. He describes this sound as a sacred key and explains the various possibilities that can be unlocked if one grasps it.

Perceiving life goes far beyond using the logical mind, says Sadhguru. He offers an example from the life of Vivekananda to illustrate the immense possibility to enhance one’s perception.

What separates humans from other animals, Sadhguru explains, is that we can be whichever way we choose. However, today, most people are suffering this freedom.

Though many people turn to substances like cannabis for their “high”, the human system, says Sadhguru, is capable of producing bliss-inducing chemicals all on its own. Activating the pineal gland, he says, is a fundamental part of yogic practices, through which one can be "stoned" by his own nature - without side effects.

Which is more important for a spiritual seeker, effort or grace? Sadhguru explains that, like baking bread, a combination of doing things and allowing things to happen is needed. The sadhana offered as Isha Yoga, he says, is a phenomenal tool to keep one’s system open to new possibilities.

Don’t try to surrender, says Sadhguru, as it is only out of a certain realization that surrender happens. Going beyond striving for confidence and self-worth, when a person transcends his longing for self-preservation, then there is a possibility of surrender.

For one who is seeking peace and blissfulness, Sadhguru explains, when you are able to take charge and determine the nature of your experience, you will naturally create pleasantness for yourself and others. He explains that Grace is like a lubricant for life to happen smoothly.  For more Sadhguru's insights, follow him on twitter and facebook.

Though nearly every individual has the necessary brain power to conduct their life, why does one sparkle with genius while another suffers from stress and anxiety? Sadhguru explains that the most important aspect is balance. Only when balance comes, then anything can be built. To bring this balance, he says, you must understand that your life and the experience of your life are entirely your making. For more Sadhguru's insights, follow him on twitter and facebook.

Sadhguru speaks about how spirituality is a natural process for anyone, as long as they use their mind as a tool of perception rather than a means to become identified with different aspects of life.

Using the example of a mango tree, Sadhguru explains the nature of the spiritual process and the ultimate flowering of a human being, which is known as enlightenment.

The body, says Sadhguru, knows only two things – survival and procreation. While there is nothing wrong with the way of the body, it is limited – it is not the ultimate. He explains that if you try to make the limited into the unlimited, suffering is inevitable.

Sadhguru expounds on the various traps one gets into when using only the intellect to perceive life. He narrates a story from the life of Aristotle which reminds us that our thoughts, logic and intellect are not enough to know life in its immensity.

Though we often hear advice to “believe in yourself,” Sadhguru explains that by strengthening our personalities, we also cause our energies to become more rigid. This in turn hampers our possibility to transcend into higher dimensions of life. Spirituality, he says, allows one to become malleable by dissolving the personality and enhancing the presence of life within. For more Sadhguru's insights, follow him on twitter and facebook.

A seeker wonders about the line between being trustful and being naïve - how to know if one is just being taken for a ride? The guru is constantly taking his disciples or devotees for a ride, Sadhguru explains, because if you really tell them what they are supposed to swallow, they will just say this is impossible and run away.
