Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev talks of his experience on a rock… please watch this video and decide what this is? Is there any terminology to this? It is making me more and more curious because I can relate to this on a very very small scale. I am not saying I am enlightened or anything… I know I am not… I am suffering from Schizophrenia. But this man is not suffering from any mental illnesses or is he?
Please tell me what you think of it.
@Ninjastar I am tagging you because you said about some hallucinations… is THAT… THIS or is it different? Sorry for the bother.
I can’t watch the video, because I don’t have WiFi here and I can’t waste my data. But I can say that hallucinations don’t always mean schizophrenia. About 20% of people will experience some form of auditory hallucinations at some point. It only becomes a diagnosable condition when the hallucinations interfere with your ability to live a full and productive life. And even when they are diagnosable problems, there are dozens of psychotic disorders that are much more mild and easier to cope with.
I can’t understand very of what Sadhguru is talking about in this video (I think I don’t have enough English skills to understand that). I watched some videos of this guy and some of them make sense for me. I remember one he talks about finding your purpose.
I think there is no way of proving that one way or the other. So I prefer to only think about things that will help me live a decent life and achieve my goals.
No I think you got it backwards. To name everything a hallucination is sort of limiting. Enlightenment can consist of many things but ultimately it’s about expanding consciousness and is a good experience.
