Why You Should NOT Be Hopeful

Sadhguru talks about how hopelessness is not to be shunned. In fact, being consciously hopeless is the way to go beyond one’s psychological madness.
#Sadhguru
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.

Expectation is the killer of joy!!!!

[@frankcrank6262]

Very true. Expectation is also a parent of bitterness when things aren't the way they "should" be. Life doesn't work by expectations; we can have goals and visions, but nothing should ever "be" a certain, specific way, life just isn't like that.

Yes, hopelessness makes you happy because there's the absence of expectation and you will not be disappointed.

What Sadhguru ACTUALLY meant is NON-ATTACHMENT and be without any attachment to your desires! When you truly give up all attachments (complete hopefulness or zero desire), you'll be in a state of bliss, lightness and peace. Blessed are those who understood the true meaning of his words.

"Its a hopeless life. Without hope there is no expectations and without expectations life is wonderful! The joyful are joyful right now" Sadhguru. Practice hopelessness. Whatever we can do we can do. Whatever we can't do, we can't do....no problem. Hope won't let you rest for a moment.

I've changed my mindset and I won't mention 'hope' to anyone again 👌 thank you 🥰

[@srishtirajput8534]

He is right , and it's all true , when we become hopeless just for a few moments we feel dipressed , but when we actually practice hopelessness is amazing , it's an ultimate stage of happiness , which makes feel satisfied all the moments , even the most worst ones too

"Hope is a madness that will not let you rest". This explains much.

Hope is always expecting something to happen in future which keeps us detach from present .

[@chirag7694]

Actually i have experienced this, the people who don't take much stress, they think they have nothing to lose, and as you said who are hopeless perform much better than than the people who are constantly chasing things. Now there might be case where both these people are on same position but the time and effort for the hopeless guys is wayyy less than hopeful guy. But the thing is this is very difficult to implement in life, I mean that's what i think and have experienced

[@dhirajkumarsahu999]

Hope and expectations often puts burden. Doing all that we can do and being hopeless is the best way 🙂

No truer words were ever spoken. Hope is a beggar.

[@lightofsoul311]

Some time i am not able to understand what sadguru is telling. but I know what ever he telling it is meaning Full one day I willl understand that word of sadguru which I am not able understanding now 😊

[@mariri_]

When you have hope you are wishing for this or that to happen. You live in your imaginary world and follow it based on this imagination. If you dont get what you want you feel terrible, maybe you will convince yourself to have more hope and continue on. Sadhguru is simply saying please come down to earth and focus on the here and now. On what you have right now, what you can do right now with what you have and to see reality as it is. Notice nature for what it is. Notice what you have and appreciate it. Dont forget the most important important this is the here and now, the only real thing is the present moment. And you can do a lot with what you have here and now. Ironically you are more likely to get what you want this way, in my experience. And if you dont you are more happy because you live without expectations(future hopes).

[@mariri_]

And he says this is not devotion because devotion doesnt mean hoping for this or that to happen to you. Devotion, from my understand is love and respect for yourself, others and that which you are devoting yourself too. Hope is wanting something for yourself or others to happen and living your life on wishful thinking rather than being grounded in reality(ie. You should take action with what you have).

[@singhjaswal3997]

😂😂

[@ermetetrismegisto4087]

I agree practicing hopelesness is essential if you want to dominate your emotions, no question about it, but it doesn't mean hope is bad. Sometimes i hope for a better world, and that suffering makes me realize that maybe i can do something about it, if not it's ok, i'll be fine. But that impulse is there in every human being. I think you do hope your videos awake as many people as possible.

[@omnigeddon]

I would like to explain my life as "narsimha" the wraith of the one known as "I am".. incarnation of preservation... I saw everyone was always aware of my potential and forever in terror overwhelming.. I wanted to leave.. but only brutality awaited for their previous master taught them life.. when I saw what happens to my future self I ran from the image before all in a open field to display that I too am alive and understanding.. so they may have mercy within.. after experiencing overwhelming greed, ignorance and hatred..

[@chasefancy3092]

Sadhguru Bhai this was sensational advice. Hope is a misguided emotion which conflicts with any discernible sense of logic or reason. A pious man or woman knows hope always will be the vacuous air which suffocates you. This life is merely a stepping stone for what lies ahead. Death is irrelevant because it is illusory.

[@markkhan2010]

Hope is as hollow as fear. What does it mean that hope is as hollow as fear? Hope and fear are both phantoms that arise from thinking of the self. When we don't see the self as self, what do we have to fear? See the world as your self. Have faith in the way things are. Love the world as your self; then you can care for all things. -Dao De Ching

[@asmitabhatta6323]

SADHGURU The way you are explaining about hope and expectation these words are touching our heart . Exactly, we all are selling our hope . We have to practice hopelessness. At the beginning we will feel so hard but after all the life will be beautiful be hopelessness.

[@pegasus6724]

Sandaguru is correct hope is a trick to a large degree Hope is not a guarantee it's awish something better will come. However you can have some hope , there is one hope that will be given that is guaranteed by god I hope that one day my spirit will return to heaven where I will be with my family and loved ones , and live for eternity in happiness and abundance and have all my heart's desires met . If you hope for this beautiful place called heaven , which is I am told 100 time better than the earth then your hope will be met and you will be very happy . We use hope on earth as a means for better circumstances because the life we are in is often harsh and restricting , and it is . Luckily it is only temporary .
