Sadhguru: By not doing it. [Laughter] Because… these are all things that have come out of dropouts from Buddhist monasteries. If… you see people bursting out here with different kinds of energies, whatever. This is the milder lot – there are
more violent people who… [Laughs] they are a burst of energy. If we want to convert them into healers, they would be very effective healers, no question about it; but if anybody attempts any such thing, they had it. I'll wrap them up in such a way that they will never again know
anything spiritual in their whole life. And definitely we will chuck them out of this place also, because we don't want such people. Not because we are against relieving another person's pain, but you meddling with another person's life process without knowing the whole of it is irresponsible. It is like you saw… you know, these days you can see
videos of major surgeries happening. So you saw a video like this, you
observed everything very carefully. So, tomorrow somebody has a problem, you take a shaving razor and decide to do a surgery upon him. I'm telling you, some people may survive this. People have survived such things, isn't it? Many times in battle zones, in
nature when accidents happened, people have performed absolutely
crude surgeries upon somebody, and they have survived. But that doesn't mean that's the way to do surgery, isn't it? That's not the way to do surgery, isn't it so? It's just that some people might have survived such surgeries. In extraordinary conditions, it was done. So… any kind of meddling with other
people's energies is very juvenile. It's coming out of a certain immaturity, and a certain egoistic state of wanting to play God. If it is coming out of compassion, what's your problem? Let everybody's karma come to you – as long
as he is relieved, what is your problem? That's not it; you want to play God with gloves on. It doesn't work like that. God didn't play the games with you,
the conspiracy with you, with gloves on. He got himself into you to play this game. It's only the priest who told you that He
is sitting up there and watching everything. But look at the way life is happening: the source of creation got itself trapped in you, isn't it? Yes? Isn't it so? Unless you have that kind of involvement,
you don't meddle with such things.

  2. I think all he wants to say is, unless you are a chosen one from god, dont try to practice it!!! Thats all!! Which is right, because every 4th person is a healer these days.. doesnt make sense…

  3. Fighting bullshit with more bullshit lol

  4. I guess this could be true if you’re not trained by a qualified professional teacher

  5. Reiki is a demonic practice… many people are affected

  6. Totally disagree with Sadguru’s thoughts regarding reiki. Reiki is such a beautiful and intelligent energy that never harms anyone and if god knows someone in need of this energy healing , that person automatically attracted towards this energy and approach to reiki healer for healing. Very few people wants to learn reiki but many people wants to have reiki healing. So here God and universe energy decides who will be the Grandmaster of reiki and situation creates that that one person who is chosen from universe go for learning the reiki.
    So Reiki energy is safe and it never interferes in anyone karma’s because getting healing with reiki energy is itself god and universe desire.

  7. Reiki master and practitioner of 27 years as well as a yoga practitioner and teacher for 27 years end practitioner of martial arts and meditation for 34 years, I can say by direct experience and decades of expertise and practice that your words are completely erroneous. If the practitioner does not purify their channel with daily meditation then yes we are all at risk. People influence each other energetically just by interacting.
    When you point a finger you have three pointing back at you sir. No true enlightened spiritual Master would have the desire to ride around on a 7 million dollar motorcycle. Just saying. may you be blessed with everything you deserve

  8. I just came to know so many reiki practitioner are there in the comments section. Point he made is only a real surgeon can or should do surgery. Like a Zen master who dedicated whole life to the process. He didn’t say surgeon or surgery is bad.

  9. My personal opinion is that we don't know what will happen in a few years and what the toll will be for using that invisible force. You don't know whose energy you have tapped into. My opinion.

  10. Stay grounded peeps! 🐥

  11. I respect this view. Karma laws . This is powerful wise coment for open mind and loving compasionate true souls…..yes not for juvenile buddhism reinventors here there middling wd gloves on karmic zones.

  12. I’ve been a reiki practitioner for most of my life now. What on earth is he talking about?? 🤦🏻‍♂️😂

  13. 🙇‍♂️🙇‍♂️🙇‍♂️

  14. No risks… I have used Pranic Healing for my healing and for my wife. It is such a blessing to humankind.

  15. No risks… I have used Pranic Healing for my healing and for my wife. It is such a blessing to humankind.

  16. I’d been in therapy for 6 years. What mansaarnault did in 10 days completely changed me

  17. I was waking up every day feeling drained. After a single ritual with mansaarnault, my energy completely shifted.

  18. I couldn’t explain the sadness I carried. One session with mansaarnault and I finally understood, and released it.

  19. mansaarnault didn’t just heal me, he gave me clarity I’d been searching for my whole life

  20. The spiritual pain I carried for years… it finally lifted after working with mansaarnault

  21. I tried everything, reiki, sound baths, even plant medicine, but the real healing started after my first ritual with mansaarnault

  22. This is the most contrwdicting speach ever. He is saying no but yes.

  23. Ive had much spiritual healing. I totally also understand what he is saying simultaneously 🙏

  24. The point he's making is there is a fine line between the ego wanting to help people from a place of wanting to play god or this master role where people have to come to you or else! That being said I am a reiki master myself and I take it like I've always told my clients, "I don't heal you" it is the clients choice to either choose to match the healers or teachers vibration or not! So to understand it is within each of us to do it ourselves is the key! The best teachers or healers simply hold safe, comfortable, sacred space for others to be themselves and let go of their 💩 or not!

  25. So basically you are saying, that if someone is suffering because of a decease or some accident or mental issues, no professional should help them cause its all a part of god’s plan. Let me add up here a bit. Dont you think thats also meddling ? And if reiky helps someone feel better, and its done by someone who holds a certificate for it so being a professional, he shouldnt do it ?? Arent you a bit biased while having double standards ?

  26. Disagree with Sadhguru here, strongly.

    By the same token, a surgeon performing surgery (a qualified one not the one in his example) is doing the same, a marma practitioner, acupunturist, the people that give you panchakarma, the jyotisha that prescribes you gems or yagyas for the planets…they are all 'meddling' with your life and energy, in fact, the teacher that teaches meditation is meddling with your life and energy. So which is it? Yes, some practices need careful control, still…any healing (western or other), any meditation, asana, Kriya, mantra, yantra use, any of those, when prescribed by a teacher/vaidya/jyotisha, are meddling, the whole point of the vedas is to bring you back to source, and it does that by a myriad of pathways to get there, all of them meddle with you to make you whole again. Isn';t he playing God as well by 'teaching' and guiding others in a spiritual path?

    And for most of the traditions mentioned above, including reiki, the idea is not to take someone's karma, but to help them in releasing it, and yes, the source of creation is in all of us, isn't that Sankara's whole point in vedanta?

  27. i an a reiki grand master you so wrong it a university energy and Sadguru you do more harm than good.

  28. It is a great responsibility.

  29. Why give medical attention including satguru. Your karma face it

  30. To forgive is changing karmic patterns.

  31. I guess then that when a surgeon performs life saving surgery that he is also messing with other people's energy and that he is playing God and shouldn't do it? Ridiculous!

  32. It's clear he doesn't know what reiki isvat all lol

  33. I disagree with his opinion on this

  34. Each and every step of Reiki goes through God.
    There is no "risk" to end a reiki treatment.
    All persons do Reiki treatments. The power is in our hands. Ask your chakras!
