Meditate Can't freeze your mind, Sadhguru's talks on Mind chattering

Sadhguru answered for the question of “How to get rid of mind chattering when we are in silent or in meditation?

It took millions of years of evolution to get a mind and tremendous amount of nature’s work that today you have a mind of this kind of scope and now you want to stop it.

Why is it that you want to stop it? If your mind was constantly producing absolute pleasantness for you, would you think how to stop this mind?  No. it’s producing lot of unpleasantness, that’s why you are thinking of how to stop the mind.

Why do you have such a horrible prejudice against the mind?

You don’t mind if your heart is beating, you can mediate

You don’t mind if your liver is working you can mediate

Your kidneys are functioning you can mediate.

 If your brain functions you can’t mediate

What is the problem?

You seem to have something against intelligence isn’t it? This is the conspiracy of the stupid against human intelligence that to meditate means your brain must be frozen. No, you don’t have to freeze your brain.

We will initiate you into shambavi. This is one simple way but it’s powerful process. If you sit here, you will say your body is here, your mind is somewhere, who you are is somewhere else.

Once there is space between you and the mind, what the mind is doing not even an issue. It is like you are stuck into the traffic jam, you are struggling through the traffic, that’s one experience. Suppose you are either standing on Chamundi hill or you are floating in a hot air balloon and look down at all the traffic, very peacefully.  There is a distance isn’ it?

 So once there is a distance between you and your mind’s activity, mind is not a problem. Mind is a miracle. The moment you identify yourself with something that you are not, then you are finished. Your mind continuously runs. It is not going to stop. If you do not identify yourself with anything that you are not, you know how to use everything.
