Sadhguru returns with profound wisdom about living fully by embracing our mortality. After surviving two life-threatening brain surgeries in 2024, the renowned yogi shares his extraordinary near-death experience and why consciousness of death transforms how we live. He breaks down the difference between psychological drama and actual life experience, revealing how most people suffer because their own intelligence turns against them. He also introduces his new Miracle of Mind app, designed to address the mental health pandemic and explains the eight types of memory that shape human experience. Anyone struggling with anxiety, seeking deeper meaning, or wanting to live more consciously will find this conversation life-changing.

In this episode you will learn:

  • Why pleasantness in body, mind, emotion and energy is 100% your business while external success requires cooperation from others
  • How consciousness of mortality eliminates time for things you don't genuinely care about and creates natural humility
  • The difference between psychological drama (your thoughts and emotions) versus actual life process and why confusing them causes suffering
  • Why your intelligence becomes your enemy when you don't know how to operate it, leading to stress, anxiety and mental illness
  • How the eight types of memory create your sense of identity, but aren't actually you
