Does Sadhguru gets affected by initiation and consecration processes?
While explaining how consecration is different from initiation, Sadhguru unravels some mysticism around what happens to him during these processes. While its easier to do these processes on living beings rather than inanimate objects like halls, but if people do not behave or are upto some mischief, it badly affects Sadhguru. In one instance, he lost his sense of taste and smell for over an year. It is indeed our most fortunate privilege to be blessed with a living Master like him.

Can Someone Do Black Magic Using My Photograph?
Sadhguru tells us that with a certain understanding, if someone has a photo of someone, they can do both positive things and negative things to a person. He explains that an image has a geometry of its own; and that using a simple experiment with Rudraksh or with just your own sensitivity, you can easily sense the unique geometry of even a two-dimensional picture.

What is Swadishtana Chakra?
Sadhguru tells us that Swadhishthana means “abode of the self”. He describes the many possibilities that mastery of this Chakra offers. If Muladhara and Swadhishthana are stabilized in an individual then health will happen from within. He also tells simple ways to stabilize the Muladhara and Swadhishthana in our system. To impress upon the power of Swadhishthana Sadhguru narrates an incidence that happened with Ram Dass when he went to meet Neem Karoli Baba. Sadhguru elaborates how Swadhishthana can be used in three different ways: It can be done with rituals, or by using the body, or by using pure energy.

Prasoon Joshi – What Is the Significance Of Numbers In Our Life?
After reading this article, you will look at numbers in a completely different way. "You" and "Me", itself are two numbers - Sadhguru tells us. In fact, he says, the moment you say "me", you have created a number. The word Yoga means to be in union - to obliterate the boundaries of your individuality, that means the first basic number, that is "me" is obliterated. So, numbers are a natural consequence of the physical existence. In some ways, words and numbers are not too different things!

Shankar Mahadevan – What Is The Significance Of The Number Three?
Essentially the human experience of life is happening between bhutakala, vartamana and bhavishya - that is past, present and future. But fundamentally, all these exists, only in the present, past as memory and future as imagination. Sadhguru says that it is very important that all these three dimensions exist - trikala, trishula and trinetra; the three dimensions of seeing an experiencing life.

What are The 7 Chakras in Our Body?
There are actually 114 chakras in the body. These are the junction points for the nadis in the human system. Nadis are the channels of praana (life energy). Though a chakra literally means wheel, they are actually triangles. Out of these 114, 2 are outside the body, and only 108 can be worked upon, remaining 4 flower as a result. Sadhguru elaborates on the significance of the number 108. These 112 chakras are arranged in 7 dimensions; it is these 7 dimensions that are referred as the 7 chakras. Chakras, apart from the physical dimension also have a spiritual dimension. Sadhguru elaborates on the qualities of each of the seven chakras; Muladhara, Svadishthana, Manuparaka, Anahata, Vishuddhi, Ajna and Sahasrara.

What is Muladhara Chakra?
Mul-adhar means foundation. This chakra is the foundation of the physical and energy structure of a human being. It is very important to have a stable foundation. Only if the Muladhara Chakra is stabilized, one will experience health and wellbeing in life. Sadhguru narrates a beautiful story about Allama Mahaprabhu, a great sage, and elaborates on three fundamental ways in which the secretions of the pineal gland can be used - to strengthen the body and make it like a rock; bring high levels of drunkenness and blissfulness within you; make yourself like thin air and super-hype your perception.

What Are Dreams? Is it Different from a Vision?
Dreams and Visions are two different things. Vision means, your ability to see and perceive. When you can see what others can't yet see, you are a visionary. Dreams are nothing but unconscious imagination. They can be used to access certain dimensions of mind to which normally you don't have access. In fact certain cultures have used it for occult purposes. Though many people misunderstand this as mysticism - mysticism is only when you go beyond the physical dimension of body and mind. Dreams are just a manifestation of a false world within.

When Do The Chakras Manifest In The Fetus?
Around the twelve week mark, only one chakra is formed in the fetus; the Muladhara. Then, in the first twenty eight to thirty two weeks, the first five chakras, upto Vishudhi, are formed. How much do Agna and Sahsrar (the remaining two chakras) get, varies for every human being. By observing an infant's eyeball movement, and the way they cry, you can tell if the Agna is established or not. Sahsrar is generally not developed for most. In the Indian culture, there were many traditions, during pregnancy and infancy to facilitate the chakra's development in the mother's womb.

What is Sahasrar Chakra?
Sahasrar, the 7th chakra, is not a physical space. You can not stay there for too long. If you do, you can't hold onto the body. When your energies are in Sahasrar, you will simply float around in ecstasy. In that state, you cannot be functional in terms of human activity. Sadhguru also tells us about the third day's moon, and the symbolism of why it adorns as an ornament on Shiva's head. Sadhguru also elaborates on what is soma rekha, the tradition of pradosham in South Indian temples.

What is Agna Chakra?
Agna, the 6th Chakra, is the highest level of discernment and is the source of knowing. Agna is without any color, that is why it is related to vairagya. When your energies move into Agna, your perception will go beyond the normal limitations, and you will see everything the way it is. If this happens without any sweetness of emotion within you, you may completely lose interest in everything. Balance of clarity and sweetness of emotion is essential before touching Agna.

What is Vishuddhi Chakra?
Vishuddhi, the 5th Chakra, means a filter. If your Vishuddhi is active, you will filter out all poisons that enter your system. Poison not necessarily in form of what you consume, a wrong thought, a wrong idea, energy, impulse can also poison you. If your energies are in Vishuddhi, you will not be impacted by whatever is happening around you.

What is Manipuraka Chakra?
Manipura (or Manipuraka), is the 3rd chakra. It is the maintenance center of the body. In the human system, this is the only place where all the seventy two thousand nadis meet and redistribute themselves. This makes Manipuara chakra more mobile than other chakras. The ability to move manipura give you a different kind of power. Far Eastern martial art styles make use of this, and move manipura in many different ways. Sadhguru also tells us how the spiritual practices make use of manipura.

What is Anahata Chakra?
Anahata means the 'unstruck sound'. Anahata, the 4th Chakra is the mergin point for the lower 3 chakras and the higher 3 chakras. In a way, Anahata has these six qualities. Sadhguru explains the significance of the symbol of Anahata, six pointed star, merging of upward moving triangle and downward facing triangle. Before going into Anahata sadhana, it is essential that the person has sweetness of emotion and steadiness of the intellect. When your energies are dominant in Anahata, you will start hearing and perceiving sounds - the language of the birds, animals, earth, and the atmosphere. For those interested in the mystical, this is a must read. Sadhguru tells us about what one experiences when in Anahata.

How Does Anesthesia Work?
Though it's been almost two hundred years that man has been using anesthesia, still the medical science does not really know how it works. In this conversation between Sadhguru and an anesthesiologist, Sadhguru sheds some light in it. He tells us that anesthesia does not take away even a bit of consciousness. It is only taking away pain and memory, and even in memory it is only blocking the recollection process, not the recording process.

Are There Really 7 Chakras?
Many people refer to yoga as a philosophy. Philosophies are made up - they have nothing to do with reality. In yoga, there is no philosophy. Yogis are not a product of philosophies or scriptures. When they shared their experiences, people around them wrote it down. Whenever something is written down, the writer's mind also goes into it. So, these 7 chakras are not like 7 segments, this is just a certain classification for the intellect to grasp. Otherwise, life is happening as one big whole!

Why Do Different Cultures Have Different Music?
This is an insightful article by Sadhguru on sounds and music. Sadhguru shares the significance of the sound 'shhh' - the sound of silence. He says - "In the science of yoga, the sound “shh” is the fundamental because that is the basis, the first manifestation from stillness". He shares an incidence from his childhood to highlight, that there are some sounds for dance, and some for silence. Different cultures have different music. He says - "Whatever became the prime goal, accordingly you will see the music manifests around that."

What is The Significance of Different Colors?
Sadhguru says - "It is significant in the sense that the color that you reflect will naturally add to the aura that you carry". He explains, that color of a substance is essentially because of what it reflects, or 'gives away'. He says - "Whatever you give away, that will be your quality in the world also.". Sadhguru further explains, the significance of color Red, Blue, Orange, White and Black, and also 'vairagya' (becoming transparent).

Can We Run Out of Souls?
If the cycles of birth and rebirth are real, will we ever run out of souls to fill new bodies? Sadhguru explains, arithmetic does not apply to the vast emptiness which is the basis of creation. He says - "Arithmetic is only for numbers – one, two, three, four belong to arithmetic. Zero does not, nor does the infinite belong to arithmetic."

How does Sadhguru know everything?
Q: Sadhguru, your knowing seems to be inexhaustible. Is all this recorded in you or are you just getting it from somewhere? Sadhguru says - "Your energy system or pranamayakosha carries stupendous volumes of information, which is so easy to carry and is not burdensome. It is so simple."
