How Do You Stop the Mind's Chatter? - Sadhguru

Sadhguru answers a question on why the mind seems to have a mind of its own! He looks at how terms such as "no-mind" and "stop the mind" have been used over the years, and asks why one would want to stop the mind - the product of millions of years of evolution. The problem, he reminds us, is not the mind, but that the mind is "telling its own story." He describes how the powerful kriya, Shambhavi Mahamudra, is one big step towards changing this.

कैसे रोकें मन की बक-बक को?

सद्गुरु एक सवाल का जवाब देते हुए बताते हैं कि मन लगातार चलता क्यों रहता है। “विचारशून्यता” और “विचारहीनता” जैसे शब्दों, जिनका एक लंबे अरसे से प्रयोग किया जाता रहा है, का ज़िक्र करते हुए सद्गुरु पूछते हैं कि लाखों सालों के विकास के बाद मिले इस शानदार मन को कोई रोकना क्यों चाहेगा। वे याद दिलाते हैं कि मन समस्या नहीं है, समस्या बस इतनी है कि मन “अपनी खुद की कहानियां” बताते रहता है। सद्गुरु बताते हैं कि कैसे शांभवी महामुद्रा क्रिया इस स्थिति को बदलने का एक सोपान हो सकता है।

(Laughter) Okay. (Laughs) You want to be here? Hmm? You don’t want to? Somebody is forcing you to stay? I’m saying you want to participate in the class? No?
