Devotion in the Corporate World

Answering a question on devotion, Sadhguru elaborates that devotion is not something that one applies to their life in a corporate context. Devotion essentially means that a person has no agenda of their own. The moment one takes up corporate and family responsibilities, they are clearly stating that they have their own agenda. Not that devotion is absent in people, but that they should not attempt it as a full-time path. There are other ways to attain without disturbing external realities.

-Yogi, mystic and visionary, Sadhguru is a spiritual master with a difference. An arresting blend of profundity and pragmatism, his life and work serves as a reminder that yoga is a contemporary science, vitally relevant to our times.

Thank you 🙏 Sadhguru

I understand in a new way that my passion, exhuberance and zeal must be trained and contained.

Such a balanced perspective to be graced with as Sadhguru calls out the deception(S) of claiming a LIFE (Living Integrated, FULLy Embodied, www.living-compassion.org) of “devotion”. The honesty addressed in this offering is so beneficial to so many who strive to conserve the external (family units, homes, jobs etceteras) while developing internally, growing, BEing of MAXIMUM service verseS living a self centered, Restless + Irritable + Discontented (RID) life filled with Resentments (self will regarding past), FEARS (False Experiences Appearing Real/self will regarding future), depression & self pity (self will about the present). This gift from Sadhguru reminds me, again, that, happiness is wanting what U have, already!” In gratitude, ahimsa

yes, i agree devotion is deception, especially for those of us who try to hold onto both. I personally have run through some jobs feeling miss aligned from day one, only to leave after I having built “my case” , felt unfulfilled, trapped by “things” ....... disappointed again and again by corporations but feeling most betrayed by myself and my choices.....I choose light, love and unity but I fear the “lack of” safety, security and yes, comfort

Really helpful answer to the question of path of devotion in a corporate world
