I'm crying. My father is so narrow minded and doesn't believe in spirituality at all. He has always made me feel not worthy or has always put me down if I have wanted to do something of my choice in life. Even to meditate or read some spiritual books I have to do it when he is not around so that he doesn't put me down and insult spirituality (I do know we can just observe people and not get affected but in the end when you're living with someone like this all the time it does make you feel not good) If any of the parents are reading this, please PLEASE guide your child but don't be a hindrance, understand their perspective and let them go. I hope with Sadhguru's blessing one day after lockdown I can be free to go my way. (I don't want to leave my family, I just want to be independent and do my thing) 🙏🙏
@Magnus Vestergaard Im so sorry🥺 I hope we can do what we want without any guilt soon. I feel like we can't blame anyone but us.. its our own karma that we get back🙏 let's only do good deeds in this life
So you are narrow minded lol. You think about ur likes and your path. There is saying "if you don't love or be with the real person then how will you love an imaginary GOD". Just look after your parents and die like a good son and get good karma. Or escape from them and mentally worry them and get bad karma. The choice is yours. There is only one life, enjoy life and don't get brainwashed by spirituality and regret years later lol. You can still be spiritual and love GOD while staying with ur family
@@Raku2040 We are talking about spirituality here, not god. And I am a daughter. Did I ever say I don't love my parents? Looks like you are pretty frustrated yourself to come comment here without knowing anything about me. God bless your heart.
@@cuttostah lol what is spirituality then. Spirituality at the end connect to the ultimate. GOD. Spirituality is relationship with GOD. You don't feel spiritual to urself or to another human being.
If you brought children into the world. You must always put them first. And raise them properly. You can still work on your spiritual growth at the same time. But never bring a child into the world and abandon them for anything.
According to me, spirituality doesn't mean running away from your responsibilities but it means accepting life just the way it is with ups and downs, sorrows, failures and challenges as a part of soul's journey on earth.
@@mukulrayhan9683 Then what is spirituality according to you? Spiritual people trust the divine plan and know that everything happens for a reason, that's why they don't " make things happen" or take credit for their achievements. They don't run after material success or money.
Immersed in materiality, most mix spirituality with materiality and so come up with an unsolvable problem of distinguishing Spirituality for what it is. It's necessary to make certain distinctions. As explained by Sadguru, being Spiritual is not an exclusive state but rather being inclusive. Sounds contradictory but sit and think a bit. It is perfectly possible.
@@richasaxena6636 Well, actually, spiritual people aren't necessarily passive or weak. As humans, we're given the abilities to make things happen. Being spiritual doesn't turn people into plants. When God created humans, He gave us power to improve our environment. With the level of intelligence He granted our ancestors, they've developed all sorts of technology to overcome natural disasters and make hospitable abode in this world. And even though spiritual people aren't greedy for money, we live in a world where money is needed to survive. We do not have to renounce money to be spiritual. There's a difference between love and bondage, if your family abuses you, your fleeing from them isn't fleeing from responsibility (even though that's a side effect, you're really fleeing to make sure you don't become their responsibility). If your well-being's shattered, you'll get sick, then you become your family's responsibility because now they need to take care of you and you don't have the strength to take care of them anymore. Spirituality shouldn't be used as a tool to enable abuse. What you're saying isn't completely right, I am not saying it's completely wrong either. About accepting life the way it is, most people don't really practice that. When they get sick, they go to the Dr and/or research remedies for healing. We don't just accept sickness, we try to cure it. It's the same with spiritual paths that make sense. Buddhism did not actually teach the static kind of contentment, the goal of Buddhism is freedom from suffering, that means people have to take actions and change their beliefs. Some people believe that being spiritual means being hopelessly romantic or impractical. That might very well be one expression of spirituality among many. But people can practice practical spirituality too.
She is brilliant. Unfortunately, it seems that Guruji doesn't prefer much brilliance opposite to him ! No many people as brilliant and in born talent as him, though.
It really depends on whether your family's anti-spiritual, because if the majority of them despise your beliefs and dismiss you, their gaslighting and controlling behaviour will steal even your sanity away.
Priya ji when u feel yourself apart from your body and mind then automatically your emotional part ll be decreased, That is a question. guruji agreed on it, but it is not mandatory for spiritual being to leave family and friends.
There isnt any more elaboration required in my perspective. One simple line he said spirituality is all about inclusive not exclusive. For making a journey u need distance but knowing oneself and attaining spirituality is all ahout within not about surrounding environment
I was thinking what you commented. I even wondered if guruji understood the depth of the question or clarity being sought. No ill will intended here by me. Also I did not agree with the speaker's question being declared a rhetoric. I guess either guruji did not want to answer it or was being evasive or perhaps even he does not know. Its naive to say that the idea of spirituality is an inward process and then that there are no present day examples of people leaving their family / home for that spirituality. It does happen. A lot in our Jain community. Anyway another thing is when he says that spirituality is an inclusive process then why is the main / major reason for people to leave family and home for higher understanding and greater good taking place at all weather in Hinduism or Jainism or Buddhism?
Deepak Jain I think u are mixing up schools of thought with spirituality per se . As per guruji u can be spiritual being in the material world but there would be far more hindrances and temptations . so ppl who are really passionate about it either move to ashrams where they tend to get a supportive environment or to secluded places where they persue spirituality as they want to .
The vedas and other stories further tells that the Rishis and learned people top had families. Though such people prioritise their learning and spiritual times over family unless there is an emergency in family. And probably that's for the greater good, even more so for the family itself.
I have seen problems happen when family members do not listen to wise counsel, they manifest sickness to pull you back from spiritual pursuit to give them more attention. If they're told to fast and abstain from meat (and dairy), study their sacred text and pray more, but they got all dismissive and anti-spiritual. They bear the fruits of illness but would never take the blame squarely. They think it's all divinely-ordained that they got sick regardless of their lifestyle choices. That's not true, they're anti-spiritual.
@@Sam14342 Don't worry by becoming so called spirtual or going to spirtual "world" you are still chasing the same thing a materialistic person is chasing you are chasing your own imagination and think that somehow this will make you "complete" and "superior".
How is it that everything that he says makes perfect sense? That question was supposed to be a knock out punch, but the way it was answered was just , wow !!!!!!
I infact have lived in a cave appartment for about 4 months. No bed, no running water, no fan, minimal ventilation, it infact did helped my introversion.
very well explained by guruji . I am a government officer have a family but still practicing spirituality. I dont think one has to leave family and job and go to hymalayas or ashrams for spirituality.
When family makes hindrance in the path of spirituality? Don't make it generalized. All members of the family and society dislike the path of spirituality.
I always ask the same question to myself... should i leave eveything and go away or should i stay in the materialistic realms... it sometimes becomes quite stiffling inside the family... i wish there was a more in deapth discussion about this
Finally I found my copy. I can feel it that I am wasting such a beautiful human body in doing useless things like eating, drinking and sleeping. I know that and I can also feel that this body is very precious and if I lose it then I am in great trouble.
@@skydangwal175 You won't think eating is useless when you eat food that taste really good. And you won't think sleeping is useless when you have good dreams.
It's a very good question and I get the context. When you're part of a family, parents, siblings, you find when you vibrate differently and your thoughts and way of being start to change, these are sometimes in ways that your immediate family take time to adjust and they don't necessarily take well to your detachment from what supposed to be important materially/ purpose wise for them and as you've been raised. It's hard to make them realise that you really do view things differently and that this is now your path in the way your view of life and all things has changed. This is a very real part of the journey and one I also asked myself if it would not just be easier shifting away and being elsewhere but I've been riding the waves and still here :)
The idea of family in the first place is itself such a narrow and faulty one - why can't the world be your family? Suppose if you die, what happens to your children - do they beg on the street? Unfortunately, there's nothing much that the society will do for your family, right. Instead of opening up and embracing the world as ours, we are teaching ourselves to shrink our vision for humanity. A spiritually enlightened being can do so much for the world than a regular family guy - so if someone wants to go - I'd say please let them go but we are just stuck in our own tiny little world.
Yes, but the thing is, parents want the child to strive for the family- and you can't say it's a wrong thing to expect. They are, after all, the ones who catered to your needs when you were helpless, and they need and expect your help back when they're aged and unable to attend to themselves. So what does one do of he wants to devote himself completely to turning inwards in such a situation? There arises a natural conflict within a human being😔
@@triptirathore4752 our culture taught us wasudev Kutumbakam it means all world is one family but today you know it's mess but still in villages of India you can experience all village is like your family atleast your neighborhood...... Today's Education is not being given properly they focusing only on one single aspects...
We all came to this world without anything. The family bond Risen from where. All belongs to Him. Actually when you are away from your kids who takes care. Come out of illusion. Om Namasivaya
IMO, spirituality is understanding inner yourselves and your relation to things around you, and knowing what's happening and using that to solve the problem with practical altruism.
Liberals think it is OK if sons and daughters leave parents for education and job and it will be foolishness if parents want their kids with them. But criticize people when they want to be spiritual and pause/end family relations they just can't tolerate it? What is this hippocrisy? Liberal means tolerance towards all kinds of beliefs. Not just bashing hindu/national/indian beliefs systems.
I like what you said. But liberal thinkers may not tolerate fanatics. Liberal and tolerance are different qualities.ofcourse,it would be great if a person is both.
My job, family, distractions are the time consuming no time for spirituality, if I leave this space and go to a place where nature surrounds there I can spend a good amount of life through yoga, meditation,, turning veg, growing trees, connect with nature, body, mind so want to give true deep thought in to inner being, good breath!
Spirituality means to know that, what you perceive is through your mind. Mind is made of beliefs, ideas, concepts, comparison etc created by society, education system, culture etc. So what you perceive everytime need not be true. Sometimes we see the facts twisted or distorted due to mental concepts
Very gud question , you may get answer when you completely understand the way to spiritual path, disattachment , unbounded will be the 1 St and perfect way .......
The lady asked a very good and pertinent question. My two bit thought is that we can journey inward through meditation (contemplation) under all circumstances. After all, it is a matter of thinking which can be done anywhere as long as we are mentally sound. So, as somebody who has to juggle worldly responsibilities and spiritual awakening efforts, a person should best adopt the "middle way" approach (which is what the Buddha advised if I am not mistaken), and tend to matters as they happen: Meditate when we find time and attend to other responsibilities at other times. As the case may be, we should prioritize what to do when. This way also we can attain realization. But yes, compared to someone who has no worldly responsibilities to worry about also, we, who have both to deal with, will certainly take a longer time to realize. Chances are high that we may even take more than just 1 lifetime. In any case, speaking for myself, I would say that if we have already started a family (have spouse and kids) or if we have people who have only us to depend on (for example, aged parents), then renouncing to pursue spirtual awakening is rather selfish and very irrespinsible too.
Life is Karma yoga, Dhyana yoga and last Bakthi yoga. We are born with our previous births karma and to remove our karma we should serve our parents as this body was given by them though the soul is from the divine. They raise us with all their love and and provides the necessities. To walk away from them with independence is not acceptable as our scripture says Matha, Pitha, Guru and Deivam. Each form is a representative of that divine which is formless. Through Karma yoga we should serve their necessities and also serve the society ( the sick, homeless etc.) as the society also contributed to our progress in life. Spirituality is compassion to all God's creation then we are seeing Oneness. As we move on doing our karma desires also gets removed to see the purpose of life which helps us to move on to Dhyana yoga and last Baktha yoga. Without experiencing life which is filled with pain, sorrow, hardship etc. Life is incomplete. When God has given has parents we are blessed. Obstacles are also brought as tests. When we achieve something without effort we will not value it so sisters and brothers please don't take to spiritual path failing from your dharma it is escapism which will not last too long.
In family life your entire life will go to collect material things for your family. Entire life will be behind money only. Its just words playing. Nothing is possible in family life. Whosoever is saying got the answer they should look their life after so many years .. it will guaranteed be the same.. behind money. No detachment.
The lady is correct, if you are more in gyana maarg, you start understanding that our own relationship are manifestation of our images, and whatever we do is only self consciousness
spiritual world is a self world and yes self is the truth which stays with us upto death..materialistic world is a heck balancing world where we have to waste our self to balance it.
Taking care of yourself, learning to be conscious & about how to be in charge of your body & mind is not shunning your family, it helps your family. Maybe she's referring to some different situation that I don't understand, I don't know. If anyone is shunning, it's the family, not the spiritual person.
We can't assume that Vivekananada Raghavedra were needed so much by their families. We can't judge their personal situations coz we haven't witnessed it. May be both of them had different purpose in life. One thing we know is that they showed lot of light to the mankind.
Mahathi Pranav Who told you that Sri Raghavendra swamy left his family, he was there with his wife till the end, moreover he told his wife before entering into samadhi and did it with the acceptance of wife, Swami Vivekananda was a brahmachari for life, where does the question of family arises in his case? And about Sanyasa, life is divided into four ashrams in Sanatana dharma, Brahmacharya, Grihastha, Vanaprastha, Sanyasa, Only after finishing their worldly duties, A man can leave his wife to their children and can accept Sanyasa only if the wife accepts it, if a Brahmachari wants to take Sanyasa, his parents should accept it in the first place which happened in the lives of Madhwacharya and Adi Shankaracharya, even in Bhagavad Gita, lord krishna tells that a man who is not enlightened should not stop his worldly duties for the sake of attaining enlightenment.
Because they knew how family structure and mainly wives manhandle their husbands emotionally and make them do things which they don't want that's why they left it was their choice ......and woman are really pissed about this as i can see only woman are asking these type of questions
@@invinciblerohan7158 I think any Man or woman shouldnot marry someone if they want to leave them for Spirituality....It's not right to destroy someone's life....
Dear Guruji, dimensions of distance are manifolds. While the higher self within the self is part of Brahman, the Atman and Brahman duality is an illusion. In this way, no separation between individuals - everyone is on the same path, towards the same destination. Tat Twam Asi. One is already what one wants to become, only has to realise it, also the realisation of dharma and karma. But one should listen attentively to the teachings for attaining the wisdom revealed. That is the spiritual journey. I am sure you will know the literary word meaning of Upanishad: Upa ni shad - sit down closely. Means, the guru is revealing underlying truth in the concepts of Vedas, that is, the wisdom of creation of the universe and the fundamental knowledge of human existence, to a student who is eager to learn. Is that a quick fix, or a long process of understanding? The reason why Upanishads are called Vedanta (end of the Vedas) is because the absolute essence of Vedas cannot be perceived even after a course of reading, so Vedic concepts are explained in the Upanishad, and encouraging the enthusiasts to engage with the said concepts on a personal and spiritual level. Is that a quick fix? No, a long way of spiritual journey.

We all came to this world without anything. The family bond Risen from where. All belongs to Him. Actually when you are away from your kids who takes care. Come out of illusion. Om Namasivaya
Just awesome🙏🙏🙏
Amazing !! ♥️♥️♥️
Good question...as me too facing the same situation ....and apt answer from sadguru
IMO, spirituality is understanding inner yourselves and your relation to things around you, and knowing what's happening and using that to solve the problem with practical altruism.
I LOVE Sadguru's facial responses to the question.
Thanks.
superb satguru pranam
Very nice, very true. God bless you.
Liberals think it is OK if sons and daughters leave parents for education and job and it will be foolishness if parents want their kids with them.
But criticize people when they want to be spiritual and pause/end family relations they just can't tolerate it?
What is this hippocrisy?
Liberal means tolerance towards all kinds of beliefs.
Not just bashing hindu/national/indian beliefs systems.
Well said. Exactly my thought. Also how many leave family for alcohol and other addictions.
I think you don't know the meaning of "liberal".
By liberals he means "so called liberals"
I like what you said.
But liberal thinkers may not tolerate fanatics.
Liberal and tolerance are different qualities.ofcourse,it would be great if a person is both.
Then why you giving them them title of liberal.. Are they?
Nice question by the lady...👏👏👏
Upanishads have given clear pathways towards spirituality..... karma yog... bhakti yog.... sanyasi yog... etc.
Great answers!

My job, family, distractions are the time consuming no time for spirituality, if I leave this space and go to a place where nature surrounds there I can spend a good amount of life through yoga, meditation,, turning veg, growing trees, connect with nature, body, mind so want to give true deep thought in to inner being, good breath!
Spirituality means to know that, what you perceive is through your mind. Mind is made of beliefs, ideas, concepts, comparison etc created by society, education system, culture etc. So what you perceive everytime need not be true. Sometimes we see the facts twisted or distorted due to mental concepts
Very gud question , you may get answer when you completely understand the way to spiritual path, disattachment , unbounded will be the 1 St and perfect way .......
At your home...let the expectations fly away... The way of peace😊
Great question, thank you for asking. It may help many or it may not.
I also feel sometimes society is a trap, family people do not know how to live without someone, and I like my own company.
🙏great question & very great answer
Nicely explained
Very nice question...
perfect question
The lady asked a very good and pertinent question.
My two bit thought is that we can journey inward through meditation (contemplation) under all circumstances. After all, it is a matter of thinking which can be done anywhere as long as we are mentally sound. So, as somebody who has to juggle worldly responsibilities and spiritual awakening efforts, a person should best adopt the "middle way" approach (which is what the Buddha advised if I am not mistaken), and tend to matters as they happen: Meditate when we find time and attend to other responsibilities at other times. As the case may be, we should prioritize what to do when. This way also we can attain realization. But yes, compared to someone who has no worldly responsibilities to worry about also, we, who have both to deal with, will certainly take a longer time to realize. Chances are high that we may even take more than just 1 lifetime. In any case, speaking for myself, I would say that if we have already started a family (have spouse and kids) or if we have people who have only us to depend on (for example, aged parents), then renouncing to pursue spirtual awakening is rather selfish and very irrespinsible too.
Correct. But sad guru replied in a different perspective.
Not for real life
Thnk u so much for answering this
The only way you know your self, is by lose your self - Osho
Very nicely explained
beautiful answer...
Peace is within, you don’t have to hear sadguru to be at peace
Marvelous reply.
(thank you)
Life is Karma yoga, Dhyana yoga and last Bakthi yoga. We are born with our previous births karma and to remove our karma we should serve our parents as this body was given by them though the soul is from the divine. They raise us with all their love and and provides the necessities. To walk away from them with independence is not acceptable as our scripture says Matha, Pitha, Guru and Deivam. Each form is a representative of that divine which is formless. Through Karma yoga we should serve their necessities and also serve the society ( the sick, homeless etc.) as the society also contributed to our progress in life. Spirituality is compassion to all God's creation then we are seeing Oneness. As we move on doing our karma desires also gets removed to see the purpose of life which helps us to move on to Dhyana yoga and last Baktha yoga. Without experiencing life which is filled with pain, sorrow, hardship etc. Life is incomplete. When God has given has parents we are blessed. Obstacles are also brought as tests. When we achieve something without effort we will not value it so sisters and brothers please don't take to spiritual path failing from your dharma it is escapism which will not last too long.
Namaskaram sadhguru 🙏
Very nice explanation by Sadhguru 🙏
In family life your entire life will go to collect material things for your family. Entire life will be behind money only. Its just words playing. Nothing is possible in family life. Whosoever is saying got the answer they should look their life after so many years .. it will guaranteed be the same.. behind money. No detachment.
Thank you sadhguru...
That was a very good question.
Your life so you decide.. on what's worth investing for..
Great ! Reality.
ABSOLUTELY
The lady is correct, if you are more in gyana maarg, you start understanding that our own relationship are manifestation of our images, and whatever we do is only self consciousness
Very good question asked by this lady
spiritual world is a self world and yes self is the truth which stays with us upto death..materialistic world is a heck balancing world where we have to waste our self to balance it.
Life is about balance..
I thought I got my answer....which I am searching for 15 days with tears in my eyes...
But having family means I have to work towards material n wealth gain gain for them.. 🤔
So what is the answer?? We should go or we should not go??
Taking care of yourself, learning to be conscious & about how to be in charge of your body & mind is not shunning your family, it helps your family. Maybe she's referring to some different situation that I don't understand, I don't know.
If anyone is shunning, it's the family, not the spiritual person.
I love you boss
Where can I get full video??
She ask the right questions. And sadhguru answer is what she seeking🙏..
This question hav answer in bhagawatgeetha...
If not for parents I would like to leave Earth right now
🙏🙏
Tats depend on what a person expects from spirituality and how much they understood
After a spiritual awakening why do we need to disconnect from friends?
Why is it so difficult?
Then why did swamy vivekananda, Sri Raghavendra swamy left there family when they were needed so much? Why sanyasa parampara came into existence?
We can't assume that Vivekananada Raghavedra were needed so much by their families. We can't judge their personal situations coz we haven't witnessed it. May be both of them had different purpose in life. One thing we know is that they showed lot of light to the mankind.
Mahathi Pranav Who told you that Sri Raghavendra swamy left his family, he was there with his wife till the end, moreover he told his wife before entering into samadhi and did it with the acceptance of wife, Swami Vivekananda was a brahmachari for life, where does the question of family arises in his case?
And about Sanyasa, life is divided into four ashrams in Sanatana dharma, Brahmacharya, Grihastha, Vanaprastha, Sanyasa, Only after finishing their worldly duties, A man can leave his wife to their children and can accept Sanyasa only if the wife accepts it, if a Brahmachari wants to take Sanyasa, his parents should accept it in the first place which happened in the lives of Madhwacharya and Adi Shankaracharya, even in Bhagavad Gita, lord krishna tells that a man who is not enlightened should not stop his worldly duties for the sake of attaining enlightenment.
Because they knew how family structure and mainly wives manhandle their husbands emotionally and make them do things which they don't want that's why they left it was their choice ......and woman are really pissed about this as i can see only woman are asking these type of questions
@@invinciblerohan7158 I think any Man or woman shouldnot marry someone if they want to leave them for Spirituality....It's not right to destroy someone's life....
It's best to follow karma yoga mentioned in the Gita
Dear Guruji, dimensions of distance are manifolds. While the higher self within the self is part of Brahman, the Atman and Brahman duality is an illusion. In this way, no separation between individuals - everyone is on the same path, towards the same destination. Tat Twam Asi. One is already what one wants to become, only has to realise it, also the realisation of dharma and karma. But one should listen attentively to the teachings for attaining the wisdom revealed. That is the spiritual journey. I am sure you will know the literary word meaning of Upanishad: Upa ni shad - sit down closely. Means, the guru is revealing underlying truth in the concepts of Vedas, that is, the wisdom of creation of the universe and the fundamental knowledge of human existence, to a student who is eager to learn. Is that a quick fix, or a long process of understanding? The reason why Upanishads are called Vedanta (end of the Vedas) is because the absolute essence of Vedas cannot be perceived even after a course of reading, so Vedic concepts are explained in the Upanishad, and encouraging the enthusiasts to engage with the said concepts on a personal and spiritual level. Is that a quick fix? No, a long way of spiritual journey.
This question from the lady, is about this world or that world. Spirituality is NOT about this or that. It's about Vasudaiva Kutumbakam.
"See, We must understand this". Start to fall in the well of wisdom.
