What is the most important thing in your life right now?
You’re alive right now, isn’t it?
Sadhguru that’s okay. Sadhguru, but I have a bundle of thousand rupees. Sadhguru but I don’t know where to go.
That’s fine. That is also important right now. But What is the MOST IMPORTANT thing right now?
You’re ALIVE right now, isn’t it so?
Because you’re alive, your family has become important, your money has become important, your country has become important, so many other things have become important. Only because you’re alive right now. And this is the most important thing that you’re ALIVE right now is the most IMPORTANT thing in your life right now.
So, suppose tomorrow morning you wake up.
You know that every day nearly a quarter million people die on the platnet with natural death. Quarter million people died, but you did not.
Tomorrow morning you woke up….check ÁM I ALIVE?”
If you are alive, you will give yourself one big smile? If you’re not ALIVE, if you’re not, I will excuse you.
Will you give yourself one big smile if you’re alive?
And if quarter million people died, at least two to three million people lost somebody who’s dear to them. So you check those three/four people who are important in your life. All of them are alive today. One more big smile.
Then you check time..it’s 11:30- you still alive?
Don’t think this is joke. What is ticking here is not the clock. It’s your life. It is not the click ticking away.
And it’s 12 o’clock, you’re still alive.
You must promise me this- every time you check time you must give yourself a smile. If you are dead, your pardon. But so many people are walking on the street as if they are practicing their posture for their grave. Don’t worry about it, it will come naturally please.
Death is super efficient, it doesn’t need practice. When it happens- BOOM 100%. Nobody died inefficiently. People live inefficiently but nobody died inefficiently.
So, will you promise me this?
Every time you check the watch, YOU MUST GIVE YOURSELF A SMILE….. still on….still on……
