Madness is just the ego.- Sadhguru




Question - Master, I hope I never go mad.
Sadhguru : What makes you think that you
are not mad right now? The limitations that you
have set upon yourselves, are they not
madness? Madness does not necessarily mean
that you have to take off your clothes, go on
the street and run. Mad people are of different
varieties. They need not necessarily be
laughing and rolling or ranting and raving.
Some mad people are very serious. Others
are in some other way.

Madness is just the ego.
It needs some expression. Now a tremendous
amount of time and energy is spent to cover
your madness. One way of handling it is to cover
it up. Another way is to transcend it. If you cover
it up, you will only fool other people who will
think that you are a perfectly balanced person;
but you suffer for the madness that you cover
up and keep within yourself. It will grow and
you will pay the price for keeping it within.
If you transcend this madness, there is
something else which opens up,
a new fragrance, a new light

The bitterness of any experience is not in what has
happened. The bitterness of any experience is in terms of
how you have received it. What is very bitter for one person
could be a blessing for another person.
