Different States of the Same Energy. Sadhguru

  • 0:27 - 0:33
    Now the question is, is self realization possible for an animal, is that the question?
  • 0:33 - 0:37
    The animal and uneducated, innocent, violent persons.
  • 0:37 - 0:43
    See uneducated, innocent, violent is different and animal is different.
  • 0:43 - 0:50
    Now when we say animal and human, we are not talking in terms of which is superior.
  • 0:50 - 0:53
    It's not a question of superiority, inferiority.
  • 0:53 - 1:03
    It’s a question of evolution; it’s a question of energy existing in a certain level of evolution.
  • 1:03 - 1:10
    See it’s the mud, the mud that you walk on is actually your body, isn’t it?
  • 1:10 - 1:13
    It’s from that you are eating. Isn’t it so?
  • 1:13 - 1:17
    And it’s become like this it’s the same material, isn’t it?
  • 1:17 - 1:26
    But is it the same? Or let me give you a more blunt analogy.
  • 1:26 - 1:35
    Today night you’ll have dinner, good food served on your plate, you will like it so much, with so much like you ate this.
  • 1:35 - 1:41
    Tomorrow morning, what has happened to this food?
  • 1:41 - 1:47
    It has become shit, isn’t it? Same stuff or not?
  • 1:47 - 1:51
    What you ate with so much liking, is it the same stuff?
  • 1:51 - 1:55
    Can you handle both of them the same way?
  • 1:59 - 2:02
    What is it then?
  • 2:16 - 2:23
    It’s the same stuff but you cannot handle both of them the same way, isn’t it?
  • 2:23 - 2:26
    Because they are in a different state.
  • 2:26 - 2:38
    Your food has become excreta, this you love so much, that you don’t want to go anywhere near it; same
    stuff, same energy but it’s different.
  • 2:38 - 2:41
    So you can’t do the same things with both, isn’t it?
  • 2:41 - 2:53
    Similarly, it’s not the... but once again, if you want to grow your food, you need either your excreta or animal excreta or something to grow, isn’t it?
  • 2:53 - 2:59
    So we can use it that way but can we take it on our plate and eat it? No?
  • 2:59 - 3:11
    So every state, the same energy manifesting in different ways but you have to handle them different ways, depending upon in which state it is.
  • 3:11 - 3:18
    So now, if I bring one dog here and try to make him meditate.
  • 3:18 - 3:29
    I may love the dog, I can just caress the dog and make him feel comfortable and nice, give him food, make him comfortable.
  • 3:29 - 3:33
    I can love him, make him love me, that’s all.
  • 3:33 - 3:41
    But if I try to make him meditate, it’ll be foolish because that is not how his energy is right now.
  • 3:41 - 3:49
    Not because he’s inferior or you are superior or something, right now that is the state in which he is functioning.
  • 3:49 - 3:53
    Now, this energy has come to this state.
  • 3:53 - 3:57
    Here something else can be done which cannot be done there.
  • 3:57 - 4:02
    So that’s why it’s being done here, not there.
  • 4:02 - 4:07
    And there, there is nothing much to be done because most of it is in nature’s hands for him, okay?
  • 4:07 - 4:13
    Not so much is in his hands, he’s never a bad dog or a bad tiger, did you see?
  • 4:13 - 4:16
    They're all good tigers, isn’t it?
  • 4:16 - 4:19
    Only human beings are the problem.
