Sadhguru - good or bad life can be used as stepping stone for liberation...Sevens for me

Jan 1 eve

Karma your own making by Sadhguru
This life is ur doing. Only and if this life is ur doing, then u got liberation. Because it is ur doing, it can be undone.
U can use people around you to break the karma or to make karma.
If u are aware, u cause karma of liberation. If u are unaware, u can cause karma of bondage.
U can sit alone in a room but still can create karma of bondage with everyone.
It is not an interaction with somebody. It is something within u.
Karma means a cocoon. If u crack it, something beautiful can happen.
Karma is not about somebody, whether close or not close to you. Everything is your doing, your action, ur creation. So liberation is also ur doing. This is an inside job but some outside help is needed.

For one who seeing this life as a stepping stone for a larger possibilities. If u r seeing this event of life as the goal itself, for him there is failure and success.
If u seeing this life as a stepping stone. Either good or bad thing, u use it for ur well being.
When there is a economic melt down; it takes something to be successful.
It doesn't matter what the hell matter with ur life. If u see this life as stepping stone, whether good or bad, u just see it as useful.

Changes.
Shiva said I always send fierce winds to which would threaten ur crops. Because the crops felt their plans were threatened, the crops puts their roots deeper into the ground and so grain happens.

Various situations in ur life, you can use to make yourself stronger or u can sit and cry. This is the choice you have. It doesn't matter what happen. The most horrific event happen in ur life, that also can be used for ur growth and ur well being. This will only happen if u clearly see the small events in ur life. When I said small, I mean your business, ur marriage, ur children all those big things.
All these things are just stepping stone. This is not new to u. All ur life u have been told ur life is for mukti. Ur business, marriage, ur social life, these are all just means to get there. Either you go with it or u go without it but whether u are a sannyasin or samsara, ur only goal is to mukti.

The goal is not just for sannyasin. For everyone the goal is mukti. If u can walk alone, u walk alone. If u want party going with u, u walk with the party. If u want to get there quick, u walk alone. If u want to go slowly, u go with people. But the important thing is you only have one goal. If u have set this up, then all the events in life; everything is beneficial. The boon is beneficial but the melt down is even more beneficial actually.
The fear of failure. Failure is bad enough. Fear is adding spice to it.
Success happens not because u desired but because u earn it. It comes only if u are capable of it.

If u set a larger goal for urself than just eating, breathing, earning a living. U be successful in life if u know how to walk in joy through hell. Economic melt down is not as hard as hell.

What is success and failure is also an idea of others. U have no idea of your own, everything is picked up elsewhere. You just changed ur idea of what is success and failure. Whatever u lost, is a just a social thing, not existential thing. Whatever u created was for ur well being. Don't make it to take ur life.

The first rule of success is that u are not a slave to anyone else idea. Don't get enamoured by petty thing. If ignorance doesn't bring suffering to u, why do u seek enlightenment. What then be the value of enlightenment.
