Why Sadhguru Drank Venom
you sit in a forest and become meditative cobras will gather in front of you consuming venom has done miracles to me in terms of rejuvenating my body and doing things with myself there are certain type of yogis who always carry these Mountain scorpions they will take a Sting from the Scorpion they are using the Venom to just shake up the whole neurological system where there is access to Consciousness they are able to sense that so you mentioned this instrument that permits us to access this uh whatever we call it Consciousness intelligence but you say it's it's for humans so what do you think about animals and how they perceive the world see when it comes to animals an animal is programmed in such a way that largely its life is fixed around its survival process let's say for any creature for that matter their stomach is full their life is subtle they just sit there happily but that's not the nature of the human being stomach is empty only one problem stomach is full 100 problems this is the nature of the human being because survival is not the end game for us only when survival is taken care of what is human kicks in till then we are also just one more creature when we are absolutely hungry and survival is in question we are like any other creature human beings fight like any other creatures when survival is in question only when those things are taken care of other dimensions of Being Human become a possibility so survival is not the end game for us it is the beginning for us it is a of life but for all other creatures survival is end game for us but even among them certain creatures are far more capable of accessing or at least being sensitive I wouldn't say accessing they're little more sensitive to Consciousness wherever there is consciousness certain creatures behave in a certain way in India in the yogic culture in the Indian mysticism Everywhere You see there will be a cobra always [Music] because we've always seen wherever there is a little bit of you know access to Consciousness these creatures somehow sense it and they arrive what makes them sense it one thing I am guessing this is not a certain science for me I'm just guessing because they are Stone deaf I think they're super alert and some other in some other sense they're very very alert this is a fact this has been checked by a few people see for example a cobra in Southern India it has no ears at all no hearing mechanism so it has got the whole body to the ground and literally here to the ground you know so if there is going to be an earthquake in California which is literally 12 hours away that means almost on the opposite side of the planet if there is going to be an earthquake in the next two days or three days this Cobra will start behaving in a certain way If You observe it carefully if you have mastered that observation sufficiently you can clearly tell that there is going to be an earthquake in approximately this kind of latitude there are people who can do that by simply observing the serpent how it behaves they say there is going to be this kind of moment in some part of the planet so because any littlest in even the minutest vibrations in the planet it is able to sense so because of this it has a certain awareness or rather sensitivity to certain vibrations probably when somebody accesses what we are referring to as Consciousness the other vibrations which are normally everybody's throwing out on a day-to-day basis their physical stuff their psychological staff probably that becomes minimal lack of the reverberation is something that a cobra senses if you become very very meditative you sit in a forest and become meditative cobras will gather in front of you they will come and sit there as if they're waiting for you this is my personal experience any number of times and this is this will be watched for by any number of yogis in the tradition always because they're able to sense that lack of vibration in the person when the vibrations become very minimal or very fine somehow they are drawn to that all venomous creatures those which create Venom in their system all of them are con are able to sense this probably I'm I'm just doing guesswork here it's just uh guesswork see some creature generates Venom within itself as an evolutionary process probably because in some way his physical features and things are such that without a deadly venom he wouldn't have survived he is constantly threatened so because he's feeling so threatened you it's also true in human beings those who feeling always threatened they will carry a lot of Venom within themselves so looking at human behavior I'm just guessing maybe in the evolutionary process because they don't have limbs let's say the snakes don't have limbs they don't have the same capabilities that other creatures have so they might have developed Venom over a period of time because otherwise they wouldn't have survived otherwise they wouldn't have got food to eat everything around them moves faster but still they manage to hunt and live only because of the Venom that they carry all venomous creatures I have noticed this with bees you know the honeybees the way they behave around me many many times I've noticed is very strange in the beginning when it happened I couldn't believe how these insects seem to be sensing something which nobody else you know human beings don't know most of the time but they're able to see it I am generally noticed this with all venomous creatures because to generate that Venom there is some special process going on within them from what I hear from other scientists and you know people who are working in the field they are saying Venom is uh one of the most complex uh proteins that are produced on the planet and today for various neurological ailments the experiments are going on how Venom could be a solution in the future because you know in my personal experience consuming venom has done miracles to me in terms of rejuvenating my body and doing things with myself in so many different ways there are certain type of yogis who always carry these Mountain scorpions which are almost like nine inches long in a box once in a way they will decide when they will take a Sting from the Scorpion your whole neurological system will jangle right we'll go for 24 hours to 48 hours it won't let you sleep it will just keep you up and between pain and pleasure there is very little distinction once the neurological system gets Tangled you know like jangle in a certain way you can make it into pain you can make it into pleasure consciously so they will cry they will laugh they will cry they will laugh they will go through this for whole 24 to 48 hours because they are using the Venom to just shake up the whole neurological system so having said that somewhere certain creatures have little more access to these things they may not have access to Consciousness but where there is access to Consciousness they are able to sense that in my understanding or I would rather say my presumption is that that they are able to mark out those creatures or those bodies who are least amount of reverberations in them where there is least amount of reverberation is like a little bit of a vacuum for them so they are drawn towards that and at the same time they will not harm that you know that kind of reverberation because they feel very passive there is a video where I am holding a king cobra not by the head but in the body it is not a pet Cobra or something we've just caught it three two three days before that is being filmed there and king cobra if it bites you you have six to eight minutes to live that's it it has enough Venom to kill an elephant but it will not bite if you show a little anxiety it will bite you if you are just absolutely calm it will not touch you because it's going by the Reverb that you generate
