Thank you so much for coming, Sadhguru.
So my first question is, there's an increasing amount of mental illness diagnosis happening.
What's your understanding for why this is happening?
Yeah, if you've got jokes, go for it.
You're not the only one who's joked about that.
No, no, I think it's totally fine.
I mean, I enjoy listening to you speak.
So I have so many questions about that.
And so is it okay if I ask a couple of questions?
So the first question, so it seems like you're saying that there are a lot of sociological changes, systemic changes, the quality of the nutrient intake we take is changing, the water we drink, the air we breathe.
Can you help me understand how that results in mental illness?
Or what we understand as mental illness.
So help me understand the connection of those two dots.
I mean, I totally agree with you, by the way, but I'm just really... When I say I agree with you, I think about it from a scientific perspective.
I understand that your background is a little bit different.
And of course, some of the stuff you say is...
perfectly aligned with science.
I think there's scientific research to back up basically every statement that you've made.
