The Untold Story of The World’s Most Powerful Antibiotics | Sadhguru

my grandmother my father's mother died at the age of 22. she got tuberculosis there was a belief that if you live on a hilltop you may get healthy in about eight months time she passed away penicillin could have saved more than 200 million lives in about 50 years time tyranny means you have no concern for any other life than yours [Music] what soil has given you is not just food it is soil which is your body it is soil which is this cloth it is soil which is everything here isn't it anything and everything well this dirty soil has been your medicine also the first antibiotic which we call as penicillin comes from soil fungus it's estimated the advent of penicillin could have saved more than 200 million lives in about 50 years time it comes from soil streptomycin without which millions would have died of tuberculosis my grandmother my father's mother died at the age of 22 when my father was just about four years or just over four years of age she got tuberculosis a wealthy family but there's no treatment so they made a small house for her on top of a small hill because there was a belief that if you live on a hilltop if you breathe pure air you may get healthy so they put her there and she got worse and worse in about eight months time she passed away this was the normal process in the previous generations this penicillin and streptomycin together might have saved something like 400 to 500 million lives in one generation all this is from soil and there are any number of other things why go like this separately just everything that you know as life everything that you know as material that you're using is soil yes or no a time has come where if we don't attend to it it may freak on us there is no may anywhere anymore it will freak on us if we don't make a serious effort to turn it around it will freak on us the word yoga means this spirituality means this that your experience of life is not limited to the boundaries of your body if it was so if it was so for every human being how could you miss the terrible screaming of the land the land is screaming i have sat for hours and days in forests not just being alive but being high intoxicated drunk with life because life is buzzing great exuberance most of the life you won't see but the same if you walk on various other parts of the world the land is screaming with pain it's not something that you make up in your head life is screaming a butcher who chops off large animals he doesn't hear the scream of the animal hello there are many people who kill other human beings they don't hear the screams and pains of those people those who rape and murder you think they heard the screams then go maybe the year heard but it doesn't go anywhere so a butcher who slaughters animals he doesn't hear the scream of the animals one who chops off trees and whatever else other life things he doesn't hear that similarly one who is busy destroying life invisible he doesn't hear that that doesn't mean it's not there so we are at a crucial time if you do things right in the next 10 to 15 years you will have the satisfaction of seeing something significant happening it's not fireworks will happen it'll happen quietly it'll happen very quietly you need to understand this even when major events were happening let's say india's freedom struggle is happening worst kind of exploitation has happened to the country and to the people people are being treated like dogs everywhere in india boats indians and dogs not a lot most places restaurants clubs all important places and if you go to any office you may be anything you may be rich you may be educated but if you want to sit on a chair you need a permit from the government that you can sit on the chair otherwise you have to sit on the floor you had to have a permit a printed permit otherwise you can't sit on a chair even though they treated you that bad only about twenty percent of the people approximately fought for freedom other eighty percent anyway somebody's fighting are you going to be that 80 percent i'm asking when things have to be done you must stand up and do it in kannada there's a saying that means if if somebody is dead there's a corpse has to be carried in india always you need four people to carry your cops that's a respect minimum four people must carry when four people are carrying there is one guy who will not take the weight will simply go like this are you that guy please don't be that one because you will lie you will die unfulfilled in your life it doesn't matter extra weight is tough but it's fulfilling that you are not that guy who escapes that thing don't be that as a generation of people we should not be that that is when we can have the kind of world that we want to live in otherwise we will live in a world that is created by tyrants of various kinds don't think only adolf hitler mussolini somebody somebody tyrants are there everywhere it may come in the form of industry it may come in the form of a political leader it may come in the form of yourself who knows tyranny means you have no concern for any other life than yours that's tyranny isn't it hello tyranny does not mean you you're a dictator in a country i don't think most of you have that capability to be a dictator it's not easy tyranny simply means you have no concern for any other life but yours this is tyranny i i want you to not just do something for this hundred days and make this movement happen that's not what i am asking i'm asking you to become a sensitive life because without sensity sensitivity there is no life that's about it but being human means many many possibilities highest level of sensitivity if you don't exhibit that then your humanity comes to question this is not about safe soil movement your humanity it comes to question your spirituality definitely a big question mark because if you don't feel for anything how is it going to work i only feel for this one what does it mean my boundaries are set isn't it my boundaries are set like a concrete block nothing beyond that don't become light this is a great opportunity for you to make yourself a little more conscious than where you are right now [Music] [Applause] oh
