A Phenomenal Shift

In this Spot video, Sadhguru introduces Conscious Planet, an initiative to create a world where a large number of human beings act consciously, and where communities and governments take more responsible environmental action. To really create an impact, Sadhguru says, “We want to get three billion people on board.”

In this Spot video from a recent darshan at the Isha Institute of Inner-sciences, Sadhguru responds to a question on virtual reality and the impact on humanity. He identifies three factors that will lead us either to doom or wellbeing: commerce and compulsion versus consciousness. He says, “If human beings lived consciously, if the leadership in the world was a conscious leadership, the question of using technology against human wellbeing or the wellbeing of anything wouldn’t arise.”

On this Spot, Sadhguru answers a question on vanaprastha, in Indian tradition the last phase of life, where one withdraws from worldly activities and into the forest. How does living in the forest help you die well? And is this traditional prescription still relevant in modern times? Read on to find out.
