A Recipe for Self-Transformation | Sadhguru
Sadhguru One of your limitations, one of your problems, one of your nonsense – that people suffer around you. One of those things should go.
You can t leave all of it wholesale At least one.
Shall we, Because without transformation, empty spirituality, talking spirituality, acting spiritual is no good.
Some transformation must happen, is t it Please make that happen so that when you live, people will enjoy living with you.
When you die, they will miss you That s how you should live On a certain day, Shankaran Pillai s, wife, was particularly incensed about her husband.
So she made a soup and put five extra spoons of chili and she came and served it.
It was hot steaming hot and she wants to see what happens.
She wrung her hands, but he was reading the newspaper.
She said the soup is ready.
She said the soup is ready. She said the soup is ready – and he said – hmm, hmm, hmm and still reading the newspaper.
Then she wanted to see if it works whether the chili powder is adulterated, Not strong enough, So she thought let her check it up.
Took a spoon full and just put it It just exploded in her mouth Tears.
Welled-up Tears started flowing Just at that moment.
Shankaran Pillai kept his newspaper down and came He looked at her and asked? Why are you crying? She said You know just last year.
My mother died and how much she loved this soup, When I just saw this soup bowl it reminded me of my mother and tears came.
Oh.
It is that so don t worry about what to do.
We all lose our mothers and fathers sometimes It s all right.
Then Shankaran Pillai went back to his newspaper with the soup and reading the newspaper he put it in his mouth and it went boom like dynamite, Because this was a full spoonful Tears came into his eyes. Then she came and said.
Oh, you are also emotional about my mother.
He said No, no, I m not crying because your mother died.
I m crying because that good mother left and she left you here and went.
This is not the way to live When you live.
People should enjoy your presence When you die, they should miss you.
If the reverse happens, that means we have lived the wrong way.
Is t it?
