The Intelligent Way To Live - Power Of Human Emotion

Photo: (Screenshot) Youtube.com/Sadhguru 

Q: Sadhguru can you share something on how to build goodwill and manage perceptions? 

A: So how to build goodwill? I was doing a program for one of the top, really one of the largest multinational company in the world, top 25 executives, today even, i had nine volunteers with me, Isha Foundation is a completely volunteer run organization and these nine volunteers were managing everything for the program and on the second day one of these executives asked " Sadhguru where do you get such people(pointing)", because they are always looking for attrition you know, "where do you get such people?", I said "you don't get them you gotta make them", "how do you make them?", I said " you have to make them fall in love with you", "Oh, how do we do that?", I said "first you must fall in love with them", then they say "Oh they don't pay us for that"(laughs). So that's all it is. 


So you cannot build goodwill you have to execute goodwill if you offer it to everybody then it comes back to you in many ways. But you don't worry whether it comes back to you or not this should be your way of living this should be your way of being that you naturally include everybody and everything that you are. Some will respond and some will not respond and its fine its their choice. But as far is your concern there is no choice. You have fallen in love with everybody for them they can choose still. But after some time they will loose their choice. They will have no choice. If you continue to be like this you will see after some time they have no choice at all. Initially they act like they have a choice but after a while they'll have no choice. So don't try to build good will. See when i say fall in love with something all i'm saying is what you refer to as love is just a certain pleasantness of your emotion. Emotion is a very powerful thing. People talk all intellectual nonsense still world is driven by human emotions. yes, isn't it so. Who gets elected is still driven by emotion. Who is popular in the world or in the country is still driven by emotion. People that you have never set your eyes upon they are the people you're in love with. Seriously, yes. You see an Amitabh Bachchhan or a Tendulker or a Brad Pitt or somebody or maybe Angelina Jolie i'm sorry.(laughs)


You are in love with people that you have never seen because that is the nature of your emotion. See emotion is a powerful tool. So if you can manage a steady sweetness of your emotion, you are in love with everything around you, if you are like this, people can't help it they'll fall. It's not a trick, it is a way of being it is an intelligent way to exist. Because whether they fall in love with you or not you are like this very pleasant and sweet. Whether somebody loves you or not doesn't make a difference. It is just that you're loving that makes your life very pleasant. So, goodwill,.. no there is no trick to build goodwill. That is called cunning you know. There is no trick. You just be like this. Those who respond will respond those who don't don't what is the problem.

Sir Ken Robinson talk at TED 2006 | Do schools kill creativity? [texts]

Photo: TED.com " Good morning. How are you?  (Audience:  Good)  It's been great, hasn't it?   I've been blown away by the whole thing.   In fact, I'm leaving.   (audience laughing)  There have been three themes running through the conference,   which are relevant to what I want to talk about.   One is the extraordinary evidence of human creativity   in all of the presentations that we've had   and in all of the people here;   just the variety of it and the range of it.  The second is that it's put us in a place   where we have no idea what's going to happen   in terms of the future.   No idea how this may play out.   I have an interest in education.   Actually, what I find is, everybody has an interest in education.   Don't you?   I find this very interesting.   If you're at a dinner party, and you say you work in education --   actually, you're not often at dinner par...

The purpose of life - Short story of a father and son

Photo: Where do i begin? | modernmysteryschoolint.com Once upon a time there lived a very wise man. He was the mayor of  a local village. Everyone respected him and his views and opinions were well regarded. Many people came to him seeking advice. His son however, was very lazy and wasted his time sleeping and spending time with his friends. No amount of advice or threat made any difference to him, he would not change at all. The years passed and with time faded the youth of the wise man. As he grew older he began to worry about his sons future. He recognized that he had to give his son something, so that he could take care of himself and his family to be in the future.  So one day the wise man called his son to his room and said:  "My son, you are no longer a kid now. You must learn to take responsibilities and understand life. I want you to find the real purpose of your life. And once you find it remember it always and you will lead a life full of happi...
