Author, Orator, Yogi And Mentor To Millions, He Excels In Making Profound Truths Come To Life, In An Era Desperate For Inner Direction. Hello! Spends Quality Time With The Master At His Isha Yoga Centre In Coimbatore, Just As His Rally For Rivers Campaign Gears Up For A National Launch.
On board a cruise liner, one rarely stops to think of the large-scale mechanics and human resources that seamlessly come together for the ship to sail smoothly. The Isha Yoga Centre, founded by Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev, mimics a behemoth that sails on the industry of over seven million volunteers, working tirelessly to make sure each nut and bolt of the system holds it together in perfect synchronicity. And as its able captain, Sadhguru as he’s known, steers the vehicle so as to give everyone on board an experience of a lifetime! With his fan base rising mercurially, the clamour to get on to the ship only gets more and more intense. He has 349,000 followers on Twitter, 203,443 on Facebook and 84,000 on Instagram. Note, he has also featured on the ‘50 Most Powerful Indians’ list by a prominent media house.
So how does Sadhguru react to his gigantic fan-base, whose presence is as palpable as high tide on a full moon night? “Sadhguru is not a title. It’s a description and not an identity. Like when you go to a doctor, you go to a pediatrician or an orthopaedic depending on what you need. When someone says ‘Sadhguru’ it means that you don’t go to him to learn scriptures, you don’t go to him to learn pujas, you don’t go to him to buy a ticket to heaven because he doesn’t know any of those things. The description is used so that people don’t come and embarrass me by saying ‘Sadhguru, can you recite a shloka or the Vedas,’ that’s why I use ‘Sadhguru’ which means an ‘uneducated’ guru. There is only one thing – he (Sadhguru) knows and it is this piece of life in its entirety (pointing to him). If you want to know you as a piece of life, only then, you come to me,” he explains, shedding the pedestal the word puts him on.
