Sadhguru Sri

Brahma was like fire

simply on.

Sadhguru answers a question on the energy at Seventh Hill,

where Sadhguru Sri Brahma left his body through all seven

chakras.

Questioner: Namaskaram, Sadhguru. I have been to the Seventh

Hill, and I found the energy there was strongly differentcompared to any other place. Can you speak a little bit about that?

Sadhguru: Sadhguru Sri Brahma was not a nice guy. He never

called anyone by name he only said, Eh! Eh was the one

name for everyone. People were terrified of him, just because of

the way he was. But at the same time, they loved him immensely.That is the beauty of contradictions.

They did not love him because he

was nice to them. They loved him

because they could not help it.

Thousands were drawn to him.He set up 70 institutions in Tami

Nadu, within a short span of

time. He mostly travelled around

and spent very little time in one

place. But wherever he went,

people gave lands and things to him so he could set up

institutions. They did this because they could not help loving him

not because he was nice to them.

The energy at the Seventh Hill is very different because Sadhguru

Sri Brahma left his body there. His whole focus in life had been to

consecrate the Dhyanalinga. But in spite of all his inner

capabilities, lack of social skills destroyed the project. The society

turned against him and made sure he could not do it. When this

happened, he wanted to check why this project failed, if

something was wrong with his energy system. So, to do this, he

left the body through all the seven chakras.

This applies to everyone if something in your life does not

work, the first thing is to check yourself, if there is something

wrong with you. The problem with most human beings is, if

something does not work, the first thing they do is blame

someone else. You should first look at yourself. Pay absolute

attention to every aspect of your life and see why this has not

happened in a successful manner. Something may not be okay

with you. Only after checking this and being sure that everything

is okay with you, you see if there is some other factor that is

messing it up.

Sadhguru Sri Brahma was immensely empowered and lived

almost miraculously. You may have heard of some of the things

that he did, like walking through a locked prison door or making a

boy walk on a lake. Things like that happened around him on a

daily basis. People saw him as godlike, but they were terrified of

him, because he seemed to be always angry. He was not angry

with anyone he was simply ferociously intense. Sadhguru Sri

Brahma was like fire simply on.

When people gathered around

him just before he went up the

Seventh Hill for the last time, he

said, This one will come back

again. One who leaves his body

through all the seven chakrasis

referred to as Chakreshwara.

That means he has complete

mastery over his energy system.

Even today, about seventy years

later, the energy there is alive

and on like it happenedyesterday. The energy is so

crazily intense that it just blows

you away.

This time around, our social competence has improved. I

consciously civilized myself to the extent that is necessary tofunction in society. Today, we have social skills, which we lacked

then. Because of the intensity of energy that he carried, other

things did not seem important to him. He thought that what

people in society think does not matter. But do not underestimate

the power of ignorance. There is power to knowledge, but there is

tremendous power to ignorance.

Many things in the world do not move forward because of

peoples ignorance. No matter how hard you try, ignorance is like

an anchor it will not let even the biggest ship move. This time

around, I took care of the ignorant from the beginning, treating

ignorance with respect. He treated ignorance with disdain. If

someone said something stupid, he just kicked them. He did not

understand the democratic process. The majority is always

ignorant, and they have the power.

The Seventh Hill, Velliangiri Mountain

He ignored that, because he thought with this intensity of energy,

everything will happen. And when it did not work, he tried to

check out if his energy was not good enough. So he left his body

through all the seven chakras, which is a very rare phenomenon.

This Velliangiri Mountain is one of the rarest places on the planet
