My biggest (personal) learning from speaking with Sadhguru - The Law Of Attraction
This was one of the questions I'd prepared to ask before the interview.
Sadhguruji's videos had got me out of depression during engineering college. And meeting him has been a dream of mine for 5-6 years now.
Interacting with him was something that I'd prayed for, that I'd wished for, that
I'd worked for!
Visualisation, prayer AND a hustle to back the wish.
So it's fair to say that I'd used the ālaw of attractionā to bring this interview into my life.
So now that the God realised master was in front of me - I HAD to ask him about that exactly - is the Law of Attraction real?
His answer, straight up - oh hell no son!
He called it a concept adopted straight from the west.
The Western world is much more goal oriented, much more career (and money) obsessed than the Eastern world.
The law of attraction is all about getting to your goals through the powerful tool of prayer and human intent.
But just because it is a powerful tool does not mean it will bring peace to your life!
He educated me instead on Eastern philosophy.
He reminded of OUR OWN COUNTRY's biggest cultural belief - KEEP WORKING, with NO EXPECTATIONS.
His advice to me was that work is the biggest spiritual practice.
If work enters your life, do it with your whole heart.
Don't keep any expectations, don't aim too big, don't aim too far.
Just aim to execute your work perfectly.
Give your work (Karm) your whole heart.
And allow life to take you wherever you are supposed to be taken.
Flow like a leaf in the river of life.
BUT whenever work comes your way, give it your best shot.
If you take care of your Karm, life will take care of you!
Don't mix goals with prayers and wishes.
Pray and wish only for peace and happiness.
Trust God's Plan - and not just the āLaw of Attractionā.
