How Do People Survive Without Food & Water in Deep Meditation

Here let me explain in a mundane way like say how things are explained in how stuff works.

Off course, Sadhguru explanation is like gold dust. It is actually crystal clear. He's made it too simple where folks think wait something is missing & they miss to understand the concept. Sometimes people just have to listen to understand things not think very deeply. Just basic common sense is required to understand this but in quest of being smart we forget sometimes common sense is enough to do the job.

For eg: How was aeroplane invented? You can say birds, or say  human creativity to fly, or inspired from something that fly or floating right...

How was vehicles invented? Inspired by our own legs. We thought how can we move faster, we ran. Then used other living animals like horse, donkey, etc. Then attached Bullock cart. Then we invented cycle, then rickshaw, then car with engine, then so on...

So how can we stay without food or water. Simple may be as preparation for famine man started to see what can be done, or curiosity to how long how a human can survive without food or water or inspired by animals which can hibernate. You know right frogs, polar bears almost go dead for months and then simply come back to life. Got it.

If humans can use aeroplanes to fly why not get inspired to hibernate using meditation.

Now how you do it, you create a pill, a machine, a injection or just meditate.

There are always zillions of ways to do the same thing.

So don't think mediation is crap or pseudo and it's all hoax.

If you explore you will know. Just saying yoga, Spirituality, meditation is one of the ways.

For eg: I am rich, you are world famous, a person is attained Enlightenment.

The feel all three have is almost same. But just intensity of experience, longevity varies.

Essentially we are all seeking same. Ways are many. Even a sadist, drunkard gets that same pleasure or feeling what a meditative person gets. Now the thing is you choose which one..not be compulsive..

Now just becoz someone is drunkard, sadist does he mean he is all evil, No. A sadist might be secretly operating but he might be good family man to society.

A drunkard might be useless but he might love his kid more than his own life.

Similarly a guru, Yogi or meditative person might be Enlightened but also have done huge unpardonable blunders in past or might do some really evil things or might already be doing very bad things or be short tempered etc.

But ignore the ill feeling about the people who are in Spirituality or meditation and actually see if it's good for you or no... that's it..don't care who the hell your teacher is..you get what you want, you reach that ultimate and get to KNOW LIFE IN & OUT.

Do I go stop going to college because it is owned by a corrupt politician..

Hibernation is the closest example by the way. As I said you can invent a pill or injection or just meditate as well. I think already in future for astronauts or long distance travel it will be reality for humans to survive without food and water for really long periods of time. Only problem is people think by mediation it's hoax or not possible. Meditation, yoga is nothing special. Nothing is special in nature. Money, God, Intelligence, Power, Beauty all have its plus and minus. Same way meditation, yoga is, no need to think it's useless, not fit for today's modern world..or think it's divine as well..just look at it the way it is..

Can I say enlightened people are those who don't have sense of fear like what normal humans are capable to feel, which they removed by the process of meditation, and if so, so is it the final goal of meditation?

Never force yourself, it is good you are seeking but ensure it doesn’t become a aim that you should achieve at any cost.

 

I mean if you desire for enlightenment isn’t that also a attachment. Remember Seeking for enlightenment and desire to be enlightened - there is a difference. It is good but you should NOT become proud or get attracted towards ATTAINING MOKSHA.

 

It will happen when it has to, but you dont stop trying and in the process you dont become proud or blind with small benefits you get.

 

I just would like to point out one thing.

 

Now that you are speaking about enlightenment, I am sure you also know about Self Realization, you know the reality of life and things like that.

 

Instead, think like this, This is what I ask God, Nature or divine or whatever you call.

 

Just tell this to yourself while meditating or praying or whenever possible:

 

Thank you for making me realize that you are the truth.

This is enough.

 

Just make sure that I don’t forget this and always remain humble like this.

Never should i forget this reality that you are the supreme.

 

It’s okay even if you get enlightened or not.

It is your will to make enlightened or No.

 

<strong>Pray to God that - dont take away this knowledge that you are the supreme and i am just a HUMBLE SOUL SEEKING. Never should i become proud or lose direction.</strong>

 

So off course, you try what you can but if you STILL dont get THE REALIZATION etc.  IT’S OKAY.

 

Hope you got what i mean. **SO ALWAYS BEING GROUNDED IS THE KEY.**

 

Realization, being enlightened is not a stage you achieve and reached, and you will be there.

 

Even the best of the enlightened have fallen (See history - even Rishis who could die only at will, who could curse God itself have fallen to desires) to mundane earthly pleasures.

 

<strong>Being enlightened is a process,** a constant balancing, juggling, precarious posistion **you need to always maintain, else you will fall.</strong>

Example - Its like going to gym everyday or being healthy. You dont go, you lose it, your level starts dtopping.

You cant just become healthy and then stop all the things you were doing to be healthy.

Yes, in between you will fall, you will do mistakes, times will be tough, you will succumb to bad ways, but this is the process.

You should still be seeking it and not peter off.

Reaching there is easy, maintaining that stage is where the actual fact lies.

That's why you dont find many enlightened people and even you find you will not like all of them and as i said even they make mistakes.

So dont make judgements if you dont like enlightened people or if you see enlightened people make mistakes.

There is no goal to enlightenment.

It is self realization PROCESS that never ends.

Yes in between you get some benefits to which you should be again very GROUNDED.

You keep at it till your last breath.

How much time does it take to open up my chakras through meditation?

Never force yourself, it is good you are seeking but ensure it doesn’t become a aim that you should achieve at any cost.

I mean if you desire isn’t that also a attachment. It is good but you should NOT become proud or get attracted towards ATTAINING MOKSHA.

It will happen when it has to, but you dont stop trying and in the process you dont become proud or blind with small benefits you get.

I just would like to point out one thing.

Now that you are speaking about chakras, I am sure you also know about Self Realization, you know the reality and things like that.

Instead, think like this, This is what I ask God, Nature or divine or whatever you call.

Just tell this to yourself while meditating or praying or whenever possible:

Thank you for making me realize that you are the truth.
This is enough.

Just make sure that I don’t forget this and always remain humble like this.
Never should i forget this reality that you are the supreme.

It’s okay even if my chakras open or not.
It is your will to make enlightened, or open my chakras.

Pray to God that - dont take away this knowledge that you are the supreme and i am just a HUMBLE SOUL SEEKING. Never should i become proud or lose direction.

So off course, you try what you can but if you STILL dont get THE REALIZATION etc.  IT’S OKAY.

Hope you got what i mean. **SO ALWAYS BEING GROUNDED IS THE KEY.**

Realization, chakras being opened is not a stage you achieve and reached, and you will be there.

Even the best of the enlightened have fallen (See history - even Rishis who could die only at will, who could curse God itself have fallen to desires) to mundane earthly pleasures.

Being with chakras activated is a process,** a constant balancing, juggling, precarious posistion **you need to always maintain, else you will fall.

Reaching there is easy, maintaining that stage is where the actual fact lies.
