The Science Behind Tying A Mangal Sutra | Sadhguru

[Music] cell phone first of all let's understand what is marriage why why the need for two people to come together being in california i was about to make the mistake why the need for a man and a woman to come together i cannot risk that anymore when you were eight years of age eight when you were eight years of age you had no such need isn't it you were just fine by yourself whoever was there around you to play around and you were just fine nothing need to happen slowly you became 14 15 maybe 12 13 14 15. i'm adjusting the age according to recent times slowly your hormones started hijacking your intelligence once it got hijacked then wherever you looked being a woman everything looked in a particular way if you're a man everything looked another way suddenly the whole world changed yes the same world but in your perception if you look at a person you can't just look at them simply the way they are all kinds of meanings came into it which did not exist just a few years ago because it's the power of chemistry just as you know in this whole body which weighs 50 60 kgs do you know what is the weight of the hormones which are doing this kind of mischief in you just you milligrams per day you understand these few milligrams of chemicals can completely freak your life out change your whole perception life for good isn't it you can't look at the world anymore simply the way it is you got so identified with the body till then you aren't blissey it's only after this hormone started coursing your blood you being a man or a woman got established that is when the body became so important isn't it as a child the body was just an instrument it was not all that important so once this happened you started thinking in different ways and you're thinking you're doing so many things but what i want you to know is all that's happening is nature is simply interested that somehow it makes you reproduce it doesn't matter you sing a song you dance you go around do what mother nature is waiting okay when i want to reproduce we try to add our own colors and culturally we try to make so many things attached to it but essentially the push is towards reproduction isn't it that sounds very gross [Music] totally uncivilized but nature does not know any civilization only society is known civilization isn't it so such a compulsive need is there in people you must see first of all whether for you as a person is it such an important thing or is it just a passing thing i would say for at least 25 to 30 percent of the people they need not even go in that direction because it is just a passing interest for another 30 to 40 percent it may be a little more long they get into this for 10 years 12 years they feel good after that they think it's a burden there are some people for whom the need is very strong that they need this another 25 30 percent need it for a much longer period they definitely need to get into such arrangements and whatever above all you must understand as body as mind has memory physical body has its own memory this is called ronan banda you heard of a word like this the indian people runanabanda ronan it's a physical memory physical body itself has its memory if it goes through certain experiences it remembers and body responds and reacts in many ways in future based on this memory physical intimacies always cause this memory in a big way and if you imprint with too many memories and there is a certain level of confusion in the body you work out everything in your life still you will find you do not know what it means to be blissful there's no ease there is no ease in your system because there is a complex impressions of memory in your system and it can confuse the body in such a way that it'll cause much trouble to one's life understanding all these things we establish certain patterns but today's social situations are doing something else you married so in india when you got married they tied mangal sutram to you mangal sutra means it's a sacred threat if this is properly done what it meant was you create this thread in a certain way if you have forgotten this every year you're supposed to renew this mangal sutra you know this not being done anymore because it's a thick gold chain it was supposed to be either raw cotton thread prepared in a certain way are raw silk thread so that there is a whole science there is a whole way of manipulating one's energies or using one's energies which is a tantric way where a certain nadi you know what's a nadi we've talked about this the seventy two thousand nadi certain nadi from your system is taken and a certain nadi from your the betrothed one is taken and the thread is prepared in a certain way and it's tied to you now the moment you have physical intimacy is not just the bodies that met two people's energies become like this now you can't break it if you break it you will have to severely damage both the people you have to tear them apart this is how marriages were conducted they got them married when they were very young you know eight nine eleven years of age they got them married but they tied them up in such a way it never occurred to them that they need to look elsewhere it never occurred to them this may look horrifying for today's mind but i want you to know the stability of that gave them such power that they could focus on their lives to do what they want to do because there's no such thing as emotional insecurity it is a new thing in india there is simply no such thing as emotional insecurity because there is such a stable bonding not an idea ever occurs in people's mind could my husband be doing something could my wife be doing something else such a thing never occurs because they've been tied internally in a certain way but that's become just an empty ritual now even now some of the marriages that i have performed we've done this to people and the level of harmony in them is phenomenal you can see how two people function as one and what a power it is for two people to function just as one being you know it's an enormous power so somewhere we thought two legs are not so stable four legs are always more stable so we tied up these two two legs together two legs are not a very why we shifted from a bicycle to a car more stable though it takes more space though it's more expensive though it's more polluting we chose a car to a bicycle because it's more stable you don't have to balance all the time that's why marriage otherwise all the time you have to be balancing all the time you have to be seeking something all the time you have to feel insecure about your emotional connections with people around you which won't leave much of you to focus on what you could do with your life [Music]
