Don’t Go Up In Smoke! _ Sadhguru – Video

Don’t Go Up In Smoke! _ Sadhguru – Transcript

Sadhguru: I don’t think it’s good or bad. It is just quite stupid to be smoking. It’s not good or bad it’s just stupid because this machine was not made to smoke. This is an eco-friendly machine. But now you are making it into a smoking machine that means it’s stupid isn’t it? A well very efficient machine you make it an inefficient machine is it not stupid? Is it good or bad? There is no such thing. Questioner: Yeah we know it’s bad but Sadhguru: See that’s the whole thing. The moment you call it bad you can’t leave it. Sadhguru: See Vel knows what’s bad. Why are you giving it titles that it is not? It’s just stupid that’s all. If you see something as stupid you can’t be doing it everyday. Somewhere you feel smarter than other people. Yes? Questioner: No because the taste Sadhguru: See now slowly in the world people have gotten against you. Just 10 years ago if you blow it into somebody’s face you felt great they felt stupid. Now the equation has reversed in last 10 years time isn’t it? Isn’t it so? So somewhere you thought it’s a smart thing to do. When you were just 10-year-old kid you wanted to suck in and blow it out into somebody’s face it felt like a smart thing to do. You tell me smoking a machine that doesn’t smoke to make it smoke Right now we are working so hard to make our cars smoke less isn’t it? Enormous amount of research into fuels and engines and everything is going on to make our car smoke less isn’t it? A non-smoking machine if you make it smoke is it stupid or intelligent? Questioner: Stupid. Sadhguru: Say it loudly. Questioner: Stupid. Sadhguru: That’s all. If you see that slowly it’ll drop off. Now there is a certain chemical factor to this. Your chemistry has become dependent on nicotine or caffeine or whatever. That we will change. You just see you do Shambhavi Maha Mudra suddenly your whole system is so fired up the need to smoke the need to drink coffee tea everything just evaporates. Now if you do it it’s only for the pleasure of it. One day you feel like drinking coffee you drink it. One day you feel like smoking you smoke. That’s up to you but the compulsion will be taken away. The physiological dependence will be taken away. We will do that with the practice. But first you see that it’s stupid to do it.
