AWSadhguru emphasizes that no one else but ourselves has the power to cause us mental or emotional pain.
Sadhguru: “So, when you talk about causing pain, someone else can cause physical pain to you.
Hmm? They can injure you - that’s different.
Mentally, all pain is caused by you, and nobody else but you. Somebody is doing what they like to do, and you get hurt.”
A participant asks Sadhguru whether one should choose to walk away from a hurtful person or situation. Sadhguru explains, “If you start doing that, you will be walking away from everybody because everybody will hurt you. There is no such perfect human being who will not hurt you, everybody will hurt you. So, there is no perfect human being anywhere. So, they do not hurt you, they’re doing what they know best. You are getting hurt, isn’t it?”
“But they are saying something; why are they saying what they’re saying? That is the best they know. Yes, or no? You don’t like to be in an atmosphere, not because it is causing pain to you, because certain atmospheres will not allow you to be effective. I want to do something, in a certain atmosphere it’ll not work. So, I don’t want to waste my energies there, so l’ll move elsewhere, but not because they’re going to hurt me.”
