Who is Sadhguru?
Sadhguru is an Indian yogi, mystic and visionary. He is the author of two best-selling books, Inner Engineering: A Yogi’s Guide to Joy and Karma: A Yogi’s Guide to Crafting Your Destiny, which he discusses in the video. He’s also a renowned speaker and has even been named one of India’s 50 most influential people. Sadhguru travels the world sharing his unique perspective on life – and how to live it well – with everyone from the United Nations to halls of Harvard and Yale.
Always a free spirit and gifted with clarity and purpose, Sadhguru is a true luminary of our time and offers in this interview a fresh understanding of karma and its common misperceptions.
The truth about karma
The idea of karma can be comforting, but it can also be dangerous. As Sadhguru explains in the video, the saying “My life is my karma” really means “My life is my making.” Humans have a unique ability to choose our lives, our futures and our karma.
Our karma actually has the ability to enhance our lives if only we choose to use our past, and our memories of it, in ways that serve our perception of life, personal evolution, and spiritual growth. When you free your consciousness, you can explore the full potential of your life and embrace true karma.
