Why is the global mental health crisis worsening according to Sadhguru?
Welcome to the Sadguru Podcast of Mystics and Mistakes.
Sadhguru, what is your solution for the world's mental health crisis?
But the main worries of today's parents about their teenagers they're of a different sort: anxiety, depression, self-harm, suicide. The stress of ковід feelings of isolation prompted more people to report mental health issues, a trend seen nationwide.
They're expecting by 2050 Worldwide, not just in America, worldwide, about thirty to thirty three percent of the human population could be mentally ill. Just twenty fifty is not too far. Thirty-three percent Is done means among every three people one is out.
What fundamental life principles does Sadhguru say we’re missing that lead to widespread anxiety and depression?
Why we are going this way? Because we are not figuring out the fundamentals of life. We don't know how to keep ourselves well. We think for everything there's a solution outside. No, this is an integrated life. This has everything within itself to be healthy, to be well, to be sane, to be joyful, to be blissful. It's got everything. It's come with everything. It's just that we're not accessing it because nowhere is it being taught.
How does Sadhguru explain the surge in suicide rates, especially among youth?
Everything is turned into a fad, everything is turned into something. Now people are predicting a suicide pandemic, as if mental illness pandemic is not good enough. Twenty twenty one. In the year 2021, the highest number of suicides ever in the history of India happened in 2021. Over hundred and thirty thousand people committing suicide. Over eighteen thousand six hundred below eighteen years of age. Over seven thousand two hundred children below fifteen years of age committing suicide. Why twelve, thirteen-year-olds want to commit suicide?
Why does Sadhguru claim classical Yoga and related arts are the solution to the mental health pandemic?
When you should be bursting with life. When you are twelve, thirteen years of age, you should be bursting with life. But they are wanting to kill themselves. We are fundamentally doing something wrong, isn't it? Otherwise children why would children want to commit suicide? But it's going that way everywhere in the world because we have not addressed the human being, we are addressing everything else. To address the human being, bring what is called as classical yoga. And just yoga everybody may not be able to do, so we are bringing along with that certain classical arts which have yogic system in it. There are classical dance forms, classical music and martial arts, which is called as calori, which is the mother of all martial arts in the world.
What role does raising human consciousness play in preventing future global conflicts, according to Sadhguru?
So we're bringing these three arts and yoga together. Please make use of it, be a part of it. It's not just about you going there to do one program. You must build it and make it available to everybody. Right now, with the way the world has gone till now, and all the things that humanity has achieved in the form of technology and science, The most important thing that needs to be done is raising of human consciousness. At this stage of empowerment with science and technology, if we are still compulsive, instinctive reaction in the world, We will kill each other in no time. Right now in the world, already people are talking like uh like it's a natural thing.
How can listeners access and practice the Inner Engineering program to improve wellbeing?
There is going to be a third world war. People are talking about it, even in the news cycle, it's there. It's almost like there was First World War, there was Second World War, so there must be a third world war. Are we nuts? If we go into Third World War, we are a generation of nutcases, yes or no? Because the way we are empowered right now, if we attempt anything like that, what we will bring upon ourselves is unspeakable. This is why yoga is needed. Yoga does not mean twisting and turning, yoga means turning inward. Finding the source of who you are, touching that intelligence within you which is beyond your psychological and physiological process. This needs to happen to maximum number of people.
