Excerpt

See, for me personally, the last three lives, it’s the same work, same place. We’re in the same place now once again. To some extent, same people. There are situations where, many times, I even end up calling them by their old names. We have taken them to those places of past life experience, where they clearly experienced what it is, and they’re very much with us and they know it is so.

How can I know about my past life?

The following is an unedited transcript of Sadhguru's video. For better readability, breaks and highlights have been added by the editors.

See, for me personally, the last three lives, it’s the same work, same place. We’re in the same place now once again. To some extent, same people. There are situations where, many times, I even end up calling them by their old names. We have taken them to those places of past life experience, where they clearly experienced what it is, and they’re very much with us and they know it is so. This is not somebody’s suggestion. This is not a story told to them. This is something that’s a living experience within themselves.

But again I insist, don’t believe all this. Because, by believing, you’ll destroy your possibilities. Oh, I know there are lives. Finished you are. The moment you make a conclusion, you’ve destroyed all search within you, isn’t it? Yes? The moment you make a conclusion, there is no thing to search. “I don’t know” – you can’t live with an, “I don’t know”, isn’t it? Yes? You cannot live with an, “I don’t know”. “I don’t know”, is uncomfortable right now, but it’s a tremendous possibility because it starts the search. Once a deep, “I don’t know” enters you, you will see your whole life energy becomes search. It is not just an intellectual question, once the “I don’t know” sinks into you very deeply.

All that we have done in the 6 days is to bring you to a state where you don’t know anything, and you’re happy about it. Yes? You have not been stuck with knowledge in these 6 days. Slowly, slowly you’re coming to a state where you really don’t know anything. If this “I don’t know” sinks deep into you, you will see your very life energies becomes a seeking, a searching. Then, truth cannot be hidden from you. If your seeking is intense, how can anybody hide it for you, because it’s within you. Nobody can take it away from you. Right now, the seeking is not intense enough. Spirituality is still entertainment – 7 day flirtation [reference to Isha yoga 7 day program]. It’s not going to work that way. When it sinks deep, something else happens.
