Mind: A Yogic Perspective – Sadhguru at MIT

During a panel conversation at MIT, Sadhguru responds to a question on the brain and consciousness, and he gives a yogic perspective on the 4 layers of mind – Manas, a memory storehouse; Buddhi, the intellect; Ahankara, one’s identity; and Chitta, an intelligence which is beyond bounds.

Sadhguru Talks @ Massachusetts Institute of Technology, "Health, Integrative Medicine, Yoga & Ayurveda", May 2017

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.

If you touch your chitta, godxwill become your slave

A great question is presented, and a brilliant response from Sadhguru unfolds in such a manner that we are reminded of how tuned in this man really is. Thank you, once again.

Thank you, thank you! 🙏 I keep listening to your eye-opening talks, can't stop it any more 😄

Very true! Too many Ph.Ds, too much technology and info around us that it is becoming more challenging to look inward, to trust in our inner wisdom...
Science is now acknowledging indigenous wisdom and how art, science, and education were the way of life; not something you do in a studio, laboratory, or get from a school or college.
May we all reclaim our inner peace, wisdom, and our divinity 🙏🏻

Really interesting explanation about the aspects of the mind with a powerful finish. Worth listening many times.
