❌ MYTH #5: Yoga Is About Impossible Postures

According to Sadhguru, this is the biggest misunderstanding about yoga.
Yoga isn’t gymnastics. It’s not about twisting yourself into pretzel shapes or performing for Instagram. 🧘‍♂️
Classical yoga is about inner transformation, not external performance. The postures are just tools to prepare your body and mind for deeper states of awareness.
Sadhguru explains that even simple asanas, done with the right awareness and breath, can completely transform your energy. A beginner sitting still with full awareness is doing more “yoga” than someone doing advanced poses mindlessly.
The goal isn’t flexibility - it’s consciousness. The goal isn’t perfection - it’s presence.
Stop chasing impossible poses. Start experiencing what’s already possible within you. 🙏

❌ MYTH #4: Props Make Yoga Easier and Better
According to Sadhguru, using props in classical yoga misses the entire point. Here’s the truth:
Yoga isn’t about achieving the perfect pose - it’s about working with YOUR body exactly as it is right now. 🧘‍♀️
When you use blocks, straps, and cushions, you’re trying to force your body into an ideal shape. But classical yoga is about exploring your limitations, understanding your body’s resistance, and gradually transforming from within.
Sadhguru teaches that the struggle IS the practice. When you can’t touch your toes, that tightness is telling you something about your body’s current state. Props bypass this conversation between you and your body.
Traditional yoga was practiced with nothing - just you, the ground, and your awareness. The discomfort you feel isn’t something to avoid with props; it’s the doorway to transformation.
Your body has its own intelligence. Props make you dependent on external support instead of developing your inner strength and flexibility naturally.
Real progress happens when you honor your limits without trying to cheat past them. 🙏

❌ MYTH #3: Music Enhances Your Yoga Practice
According to Sadhguru, listening to music during yoga is actually a distraction. Here’s why:
Yoga is about heightening your inner awareness, not drowning it out with external sounds. 🎵
When music plays, your mind latches onto the rhythm, the lyrics, the melody - pulling your attention outward. But yoga demands you turn inward, to listen to your breath, your heartbeat, the subtle sensations within your body.
Sadhguru explains that classical yoga creates its own music - the sound of your breath, the vibration of mantras, the silence between thoughts. This internal symphony is what awakens your consciousness.
Music might make the practice feel entertaining or comfortable, but comfort isn’t the goal. Transformation is. And transformation happens when you’re willing to sit with yourself in complete silence. 🧘‍♂️
Real yoga doesn’t need a soundtrack. Your awareness is enough.

Have you tried practicing in complete silence? 👇

❌ MYTH #2: Mirrors Help You Perfect Your Yoga Practice
According to Sadhguru, practicing yoga in front of mirrors actually defeats the entire purpose. Here’s the surprising truth:
Yoga is an inward journey, not a visual performance. When you practice in front of a mirror, your attention goes outward - you’re constantly judging your appearance, comparing yourself, getting distracted by how you look. 🪞

Classical yoga is about turning inward. It’s about feeling the energy within your body, developing inner awareness, and experiencing the subtle dimensions that can’t be seen with your eyes.

Sadhguru explains that real alignment comes from inner perception, not external observation. A true yogi can feel when something is off in their body without needing to see it. The mirror creates dependency and pulls you away from developing this crucial inner sensitivity.

Modern yoga studios use mirrors because they’ve turned yoga into fitness and aesthetics. But traditional yoga was never about looking good - it was about going beyond the physical body altogether. 🧘‍♀️
When you close your eyes and feel your practice from within, that’s when transformation actually begins.
Ready to practice without the mirror?

❌ MYTH #1: You Can Learn Yoga From A Book

According to Sadhguru, this is one of the biggest misconceptions about yoga.
Here’s why:
Yoga isn’t just postures you can copy from pictures. It’s a living science that requires transmission from a living Guru to a disciple. 📿

The subtleties matter - the way you breathe, the precise alignment, the internal energy flow, the mental state. A book can’t correct you when you’re going wrong. It can’t feel your body’s limitations or guide you through the deeper dimensions of the practice.

Sadhguru emphasizes that yoga is experiential, not intellectual. You don’t “learn” yoga - you receive it. The presence of a trained teacher ensures you don’t hurt yourself physically and that you’re actually progressing on the path, not just performing gymnastics.

Books can motivate you to practice, but they can never replace the wisdom and guidance of someone who has walked the path before you. 🙏

Feel anger, but eliminate the actions that come with the anger

Sadhguru

Anger is a natural human emotion. The wisdom lies not in suppressing what we feel, but in choosing how we respond.
When we can observe our anger without being controlled by it, we gain true power. We can acknowledge the feeling while choosing conscious action over reactive impulse.
This is emotional mastery. This is freedom.

Sitting at this height, with breathtaking views all around, I was reminded of how small we truly are in front of nature’s vastness

Guru Purnima: Why a Guru?

Since childhood, I kept hearing:

“Guru Govind dono khade, kake lagun paay;
Balihaari Guru aapne, Govind diyo milaye.”

I always wondered — How can a Guru be above God?
God is supreme. Why would we place anyone higher?
Honestly, the idea of a Guru even felt distant and a little scary to me.

Then, in 2019, something shifted.

I was sitting blank , full of confusion, anger, and pain… a storm within.

Just one glance at Him — and something inside me softened.In that moment, tears started flowing.
But on that day in 2019(that day was also Guru Purnima)
I felt seen, held, and guided in a way I had never known before possible.

It didn’t fix everything, but something quietly changed.Transformation is a lifelong journey — I am still walking it, still stumbling, still learning every single day.

Many friends have asked me, “Why are you so drawn to one person?”

I never really found words to explain it.

But maybe today, I can try

It’s not about blind devotion or putting someone on a pedestal.
It’s about having someone who lights up a path we might never dare to walk alone.
Someone who holds our hand through our chaos, doubts, and fears.

For most of us, God is a belief we grow up with — something we trust but rarely experience directly. A Guru gives you a glimpse, a taste of something beyond just belief.

On this Guru Purnima, I feel grateful for that
guidance and for the immense grace that keeps unfolding, every single day.
