Sadhguru's Podcast

The human body, as well as the entire cosmos, is essentially made of just five elements, says Sadhguru. He explains that every yogic practice finds its roots in Bhuta Shuddhi, the cleansing of these elements. If we succeed at this cleansing, he says, we can move towards Bhuta Siddhi, or mastery of the elements. Editor's Note: Connect with Sadhguru!

When we ask what is the nature of life and death, Sadhguru says, essentially we are wondering “Who am I?” If these questions are genuine and not just for entertainment or solace, then spirituality can provide a path towards a solution. He discusses sanyas and the hormonal “hijack”, explaining that suppression is not a solution, but transcendence is a solution that goes far beyond the problem.  Editor's Note: Connect with Sadhguru!
