#1321 - Suffering Will Not Seek

Sadhguru Official
About this episode

“We don’t have absolute choice to choose our situations, but we have been given the freedom to choose our experience.” –Sadhguru


For many, life seems to be a pretty rotten deal. In this talk, Sadhguru states that human beings have the unique gift of being able to suffer even a good deal. However, even if we don’t have the freedom to choose our external situations, we have been given another freedom – the benediction of being able to strike a fabulous inner deal. This one huge step of consciousness, says Sadhguru, sets a human being apart from every other creature on the planet.

Set the context for a joyful, exuberant day with a short, powerful message from Sadhguru. Explore a range of subjects with Sadhguru, discover how every aspect of life can be a stepping stone, and learn to make the most of the potential that a human being embodies.
