a man who's working with such intensity and commitment is not working for not producing results the problem is you heard what krishna said [Music] through the words of a king's servant whatever you wish to do in your life you have goals whether it's art music spirituality politics business you think you will do anything significant that's all he's saying [Music] in the bhagavad-gita lord krishna advises us to keep putting in effort without being attached to the results but i find it incredibly hard to keep working and not obsess over the results and i would love to know how we can better practice effort putting an effort while being detached to the results well i am not in any way well studied about any scripture it's unfortunate but i have to say i have not even read the gita but we know the life of krishna that people think krishna means but girls and flute but you need to understand this all these things happen only till he was 16 years of age so after 16 he lived an extremely committed life his commitment was to marry the political process of the day with the spiritual process because he saw unless those who will power or essentially in their experience have a larger sense of life and an inclusive sense of identity not my family my children my husband my wife this stuff you have a larger sense of identity only then you must build power otherwise it will lead to corruption people say power is corruption power is not corruption limited identity is corruption they believe they're doing the right things and they're doing the horrible things all the time because their identity is so small so he was trying to change this this was his whole life's mission and always working for results hello a man who's working with such intensity and commitment is not working for not producing results obviously he's working for results the problem is you heard what krishna said through the words of a king's servant nobody else told you he only spoke to arjuna arjuna never spoke he lived for 36 years after that incident but he never uttered one word what krishna told him have you heard anywhere he ruled as a king but never once he said krishna told me this on the battlefield not once so everything that you have heard is only from sanjaya who was a king's servant you must understand the quality of a king's servant he's very reliable see if you let's say if your husband or wife or children they saw something they come and tell you they will add a little bit of their own stuff and tell you it's it is intrinsic to a human being their own opinions ideas other things will naturally get into what they're speaking but a king's servant is trained never to add his opinion otherwise his head will go he will only interpret everything word by word as it was so he's a kind of a ancient tip recorder okay he's recording and just telling the king this is what he's saying but there's no context what is shared between two people where is a very deep relationship uh if two lovers are doing something talking to each other somebody else may think they're quarreling but they're doing their love affair so this is a love affair between krishna and arjuna because they know each other very intimately so he's speaking a certain language so as king's servant takes word by word without knowing the context or understanding what it is the experiential dimension of what it is and he's saying so having said that see essentially it is just this whatever you wish to do in your life you have goals what kind of goal will you set up right now you're in the university what kind of goal will you set up what you already know you will exaggerate that a little bit and think it's a big goal in your life generally people call this an ambition i call this a constipation because you're trying to handle life little by little just like constipation if you have a goal your goal cannot be something absolutely new it is only an exaggeration of what you already know yes or no can you think of a goal that you simply don't know how is it even possible so what he's saying is don't you know there is a direction we have taken but you have to be dedicated to the process otherwise goal will just be hallucination if you do one thing right now you know just don't take this one breath take the other breaths let me see i can't do it that's all he's saying he's saying without taking this step properly you hallucinate about the goal what is the point in yoga we say this very simply we say if you have one eye on the goal you have only one eye to find your way it's inefficient that's all so he's just talking about in a battle if you're inefficient it is not that you won't get your incremental promotion you just get you just get dead hello in a battle if you're inefficient you think you'll just lose your marks or something a great you will lose is that what it is no you will be buried that evening so he is telling him because arjuna is talking about how to kill all these people and may become a king he said you will not become a king yet you need to shoot this guy in front of you now properly otherwise you not the king you will be buried today evening that's all he's trying to tell him is it wrong so so you know every year in the month of november we have a business event so 200 ceos were there last year also this november is coming again and they just look at how seamlessly asia foundation functions variety of activity all volunteers you know volunteers means what nobody's trained for the job they are super dedicated but they're not trained for the job and you can't fire them because they're volunteers if you hire them you can fire them their volunteers how to fire them you can't so they looked at this and said sadhguru we pick up the best from iits and iims and all this stuff but you are just doing with volunteers and your your organization functions better than our companies how is it i said see all of you are dedicated to the goal here i have continuously instilled in people that you're absolutely devoted to the process now what you're doing you do this well most of them don't even know where i'm taking them all right they're working for a certain project they don't know what is the goal i have something else if i tell them right now they'll freak because my goals are so far they will give up so right now we have instilled this in them you just absolutely involved in the process know the joy of involvement first of all [Music] without absolute devotion to what you're doing right now you will not do anything significant in your life whether it's art music spirituality politics business take anything without being devoted to the process that you're doing right now you think you will do anything significant that's all he's saying [Music] oh [Music]
