today's TRS episode is just what the thumbnail promises you my friends survey shashi is one of India's hottest young entrepreneurs and he claims that he's done this through his practice of celibacy he's followed the no sex and no FAP rule for nine years and he genuinely believes that it's given him kind of a super power to go achieve his dreams so through the length of his podcast I'm gonna ask him all the questions that you were thinking of how did he do it what does he feel from inside does he feel horny or lust at
any point during his life and he's given some very inspirational very deep answers I promise you watch the entire podcast you will come out a different human being at the end of it also keep in mind that in the comment section I'm gonna link the different sections of this podcast and also keep in mind that the description has the audio link of the podcast enjoy yourselves cerveja sheen on the runway show well then be is show we're talking no FAP we're talking no sex we're talking yoga we're talking about the benefits of all these worlds
on the human mind and how to build a multi-million dollar business out of those benefits sorry Shahi thank you so much for having me on your show it's amazing bro it's a pleasure having you on the Randy show I'm going to dig into your mind and these last nine years where you've practiced celibacy Acharya how you have been trained deeply in yoga and how you set up one of India's biggest yoga startups actually I call it a wellness startup yeah I think when the startup is is a much better way to put it because yes
the authentic foundation of what we're doing is yoga but we are trying to build a well as ecosystem and who's invested in the wellness is quite a lot of people about I'd say about a little over 40 but the specific ones that you're wanting to know are Jennifer Lopez Alex Rodriguez of fiance and partner Malaika Arora my favorite partner and we have shied Kapoor and Mira Kapoor they've invested and Regina Khan's daughter Aishwarya Dhanush as well amongst many many other people who have who are absolute legends in their specific fields so it's amazing I feel
like with something like do yoga they're looking at two things obviously they look at the business model and the purpose of do yoga but you're also looking at you as a guy they're saying that there's something about this brother who's the sole founder of this organization yeah I think I think largely when people invest right when they put in their money it's two three things that they look into one is the founder second is is is this purposeful stroke scalable business and then the team and yes profitability bottom line all of that does come but
largely these first two three points are very critical for them and Deva Yoga is one which is all women it's aspirational and the mother brand is called cerva okay and serve amines all a complete bond and a vision statement says connecting seven billion breaths which is the world yeah so and service unisex it's both men and women it's transformational diva is aspirational I'm gonna dive straight into what the audience wants to know how has how has your retains even brought you to this point well I think see I I describe my life into two parts
one is a life before seventeen and the other is a life after 17 before 17 I described my life with the three A's which is arrogance attitude and anger I think as a six year old child my only aim was to play cricket for the country and win the World Cup as well so when I was six I was I was super hyper as a child so my parents thought that putting me into a yoga class will help me balance and focus better both as an individual and in my game and I saw a lot
of difference in my game for sure so time went on life and by started doing a lot of yoga the physical aspects of yoga which is what people think you guys doing Surya Namaskar meditation I'm too old I'm too young to do that and it's only for women etc but when I was 17 my dad took up this yoga class which he couldn't complete he paid a lot of money he said salvation of what I paid a lot of money just seven eight sessions left just take the class and get done with it so I
was like okay fine you know don't let's not waste money and went into the class the this guy was sitting in front of me he had long hair long beard orange clothes and I was thinking okay a biack he's another God going to tell me to fall at his feet he'll show me a hallow blighter on my head then all of that I was very intrigued as a child about enlightenment and consciousness as a child as a child as a 17 year old whether you want to call it a child or a teen but I
was always include about intuition like you know I wanted to see the future but very selfish because I thought if I open my third eye I play for the country faster quickened it was very selfish in nature when but when might when I spoke to my teacher about it the first thing he told me was service if you ever think I can enlighten you you are a fool and I'm a bigger fool that kind of hit me quite hard I'm like wow this guy's being really honest I really like him I want to kind of
you know understand more learn more about what he's going to be saying trying to say etc went to my dad and I said dad really you know what I want a continuous losses can I he said of course it's a good thing please continue that's how my yoga journey started after about 30 45 days of classes after doing the typical what people think you guys today I started doing a lot of sadness Sardinas in sanskrit means discipline okay so i did a lot of 10 11 21 and 40 days sadness for example you say i'm
going to go on a keto for 21 days right you actually follow it or you say i'm not going to do this not going to do this for 40 days or i am going to do this for 10 11 21 40 whatever that is so I started doing a lot of 10 11 21 and 40 day sadness so I I've gone silent for 40 days I used to meditate for nine hours a day I've done way past now when I was really young and I've done a bunch of Southerners I have not touched people you
know now must they not really be very very mindful of whatever I was doing trying to do going to do in my game in in my social life etc one fine day my teacher came and told me sir wish you're doing great I'm going to be giving you five precepts in life I said great tell me what are these five precepts he said tell me first will you follow it I said I will follow it no problem he said remember sir wish in yoga Sankalp KO / kv company i said i'll go in linear time
what does that mean he said which means in yoga if you commit it's a commitment like no going against your words but what happens if you fulfill that commitment like why would you take up those five precepts so I I before I told him that yes I'll take it up I had done a lot of ten eleven twenty one forty days and every time I did it and completed it I always got one step ahead in my life in different aspects whether it is professionally in my game well in the year when I thought I'd
get dropped from possibly one of the best college teams in the country I became the captain of the team crazy so it was amazing right so I said great I said what are these Five Precepts he said the first one was no in toxification which is no alcohol no smoking no non-veg alcohol and smoking was easy because I never done it until then and continuing that was very easy meet a mamalu so I don't have to talk much how Milo's eat meat I said okay fine I'll okay great second one was non-violence non-violence through actions
thoughts and words one's a wise man said that a deed is done when the thought is planted I don't remember genuinely the last time I even killed a mosquito third one was no mental and physical stealing physical stealing is you physically steal stuff mental sinning is over and weed has a nice watch I like to have it I can aspire to do whatever I want to buy a car buy a house fly in a plane go for a holiday that's fine but not mentally steal stuff from people of whatever fourth one was no line I
can't even white lie if I'm late because I overslept I'm late because I overslept not because there was traffic on the road 51 was by far the most difficult because of two reasons one because of my age 2 because of the accessibility I had which was celibacy is celibacy celibacy is so when I asked my teacher what celibacy meant he said service no sex so I said ok I mean until 18 I never had I mean I've never had sex so it was easy for me to kind of continue thinking it's going to be for
40 days so I said rhetorically told my teacher Guruji I call him I started calling him guru ji guru ji in sanskrit guru means one who brings you from darkness to light so I said Guruji carding Charlie's in kill accordingly he said service not forty days seven years I'm like oh wait wait I mean SATs all meaning seven years he said yeah I said what guru ji he made a prime time mana if not to do all of the five things but clearly a couple of them so he says I wish it is your prime
time but to focus on yourself you build in inner strength inner growth but it's your choice I said no good you have told you yes I'll do it I'll do it and then after a couple of days he said it started saying celibacy means no getting physical no fab no ensuring you know you don't ejaculate etc etc no masturbation no ejaculation I don't know ejaculation at all no masturbation at all so I'm like whoa I'm like okay fine guru ji but I've promised you what I promised you but anyways so for the first one and
a half years I was purely doing everything to prove him wrong hmm the five things which is celibacy no sex etc after one and a half years after when I was 19 and a half I think it became a way of life I'm 27 now I have not broken any of the five things crazy so you you started when when you were 19 18 18 and you had to stop actually two years back at 25 but yes I continued yeah uh-uh it became a way of life I started seeing a lot of differences in me
and a lot of things aren't happening which was I think for the better I would I mean a lot of people think they differentiate between good things and bad things but I believe in the concept of and there is day there is night yeah so everything happens for a reason and the reason is the best that could have happened to you so for me it was a life of I'm fine I I'll take life as it comes and I'm a human I'm not enlightened or anything of that sort so I do have my days where
I feel upset I am vulnerable etc but I think it's all knowing the fact that this will also change yeah yeah so you open to the concept of marriage probably four oh yeah yeah yeah yeah absolutely I'm open to I think I think the best part about what I think I am doing is doing whatever I'm doing in an agent world people think that you can't you know be in a modern world you can't run a business a lot of people say how can you not lie when you're running a business why should you lie
when you're running a business like I understand the fact hundred percent like I mean I think what I've largely built today is because of trust love respect and my ethics and values yeah and you're honest like hustle in your world yeah that's I think yeah I think I sleep for probably five six hours maximum a day yeah but work is work like no work honestly work honestly yeah coming back to semen retention growth there's a lot of bros watching this actually who firstly one and all the benefits so you said that you know i'm shorter
it's not just the semen retention and it's your other for sadness as also all of it together yeah yeah but what differences have you actually seen in your own internal world is your stamina high or is your thought process different well largely i mean your the benefits of stamina you know feeling energetic etc etcetera is great see what does the semen retention mean is largely taking that energy to your brain taking it upwards instead of having it being released you're taking it upwards to your head and which opens up a completely different dimension of creative
thought process right brain activation so on and so forth can you elaborate yeah so i think you know what happens is when when you practice nofap or when you're ensuring that there is semen retention happening that energy moves to your brain when that energy moves upward towards your brain what happens is there is a lot of i'd say a creative mind space that's opened up right there is a lot of science behind it etc but i think i'm more practice what i preach so i'm not getting into the science of it but more what i've
personally kind of felt is whether it's in your profession whether when i'm playing cricket whether is how i watch the ball to Hawaii Bowl to Hawaii kind of perform because I think semen retention is hugely also linked to performance so the the the peak performance level that you get when you consciously ensuring semen retention stroke taking that energy upwards and that can happen through various asanas various exercises etc it just opens up your creative energy so much that whatever you're doing specifically when you're in a profession when you're you know whatever profession you are in
right whether it's a corporate world whether it's a creative world or it's it can be as simple as being confident in front of people it's unreal I mean you have to practice to experience it yeah I can't say all that I've experienced but you have to practice it I mean I'm not even saying yours right just do it for 21 days and and see how you feel about it under because you feel tired after things happened right but I'll be with ya q later after you Jack laid it there is a sense of tiredness yeah
why it's a question that I think all of y'all should answer but yeah also I feel that again I keep saying this in a bunch of a podcast that there's a whole world of science that the world of science hasn't discovered yet see I believe in this as a word I may be wrong a lot of people may say what are you saying but what do you what do scientists do what do what do you say scientists what research while ice research is the word right which means they never you never see scientists are searching
technically science is supposed to search right what is research means it's already there they're researching it yeah so what's their five thousand or how many of our years ago they are researching it 100% i feel i feel not 2020s we're gonna see a lot of discoveries hopefully looking forward some few more days to go but yeah and we can we can say that we go farther than okay also but speaking about nofap I'm gonna give like a quick like exercise that I've known from the world of yoga a bunch of books I think one of
the books written by osho also mentioned this so basically for you guys were just starting out or nofap it's a very simple yoga suppose you are feeling lust you're feeling horny basically okay so you do feel a certain rush of blood going to your sex organs the yoga is that you just sit in one place okay and you take a deep breath in and keep in mind a lot of meditation and yoga is a lot of visualization so you just visualize that all that energy is actually flowing upward to your spine and your brain so
you breathe in take it upward into your brain and then breathe out and imagine that energy spreading through your brain that's all it's a very basic yoga and I've seen that this personally helped me and my no fab initially I have two questions for you sir wish yeah first question is that is it okay that I said this yoga on show absolutely I mean everybody I think it's not one size fits all so as long as you're able to reach what you want to reach yeah I think the process is however it works for you
the best yeah as long as it's not harming you in any way yeah and you're taking right guidance to do it it's perfectly fine yeah so if you actually go into one of these advanced meditation schools like the ocean school or a foundation or I assess or chinmaya mission school you will find yoga's related to controlling your sexual energy and kind of reach analyzing it to create absolutely creative energy absolutely so the first question was that is this okay and I've got the thumbs-up from a unique brother yeah the second question I have for you
is the obvious one about no fab eventually becomes easy if you've practiced over this is what you'll see eventually you'll find it easy to beat your cravings initially it is a little bit difficult absolutely so I want to take you back to that eighteen year old version of yourself whose hormones oh please what what used to go on in your head dude if you saw like an attack well it is unreal I mean I'm the all Five Precepts in fact because you know it's it's a it's pretty much reverse psychology right now it's it's nature's
wish that it tests your mind power mental strength you know it happens to a lot of you all I'm sure you say I'd say my diet meal you'll get called for ten weddings you'll get called for the best birthday parties you'll get called for best friends this best friend we add see many I started my diet today Qi really a genie cuz it's a Lucario so there are just a calcium which are Luca Luca so then next day you're like okay today morning onwards morning you would have done it yeah after you know done it
evening I getting to be like run we've let's go for a party and then you know because when the moment you tend to take a certain kind of a bath and bath stroke goal for yourself the nature's first rule is how do we tend to break it how do we test tested strong break it stroke whatever you want to call it for the good but can this person he or she would stand that test and come out of it whether it is something that I took up of not lying I know I've lost friendships for
a brief moment because they asked me to say something and I couldn't lie and I said listen I can't do it solo after that after about two years all parents only talk to me because they know that they'll know where their son or daughter is they can there he or she is in safe hands there's no problem at all but it's unreal I mean the kind of whether it's lying whether it's women who've come across it's it's just you know that rush of things happening when you say you don't want it it's it's extremely high
and the control was very simple we were I was told to do a certain exercises physically mindfully etcetera to kind of take that energy and use it in the right direction which is open up opening up your creative thought process etc so I think you know asanas that we were asked to do exercises that we were asked to do I was asked to do rather breathing's that I was asked to do I think all of that kind of channelize it in the right direction but it was not easy I mean and I'm a professional cricketer
I was with the IPL for three years I was traveling with them and at the IPL times you know at games after games etc you know the kind of that's what I said right the accessibility that I had and then following it was the hard part like I mean there has been incidences this means crazy incidences in terms of I mean I don't know whether it'll be nice for me to say it but I've had I've had people change clothes in front of me and I have walked out of the room saying listen I'm sorry
leave me alone I can't do much can I also mention one thing as a brother sure when I'm hanging out with you I see that a lot of women are really [Laughter] because they just trust you and you know I think it's the feeling of feeling safe yeah more than anything else and I've got this a lot even from mothers about their daughters yeah from wives I mean from their husbands because I mean I've where they feel safe and I think for me it's about seeing people in the right sense I mean it's not like
I'm enlightened or I don't have emotions or I don't have feelings but I think I'm conscious about them yeah so got it but do you think that you know something like nofap semen retention does make you say for the lack of a better word a little more attractive in terms of you more magnetic well I have been told that that it will happen so semen retention does does make you more attractive I don't know whether it happens physically or more vice energy-wise yeah I think world is energy right the world is particles the world is
everybody all of us have particles in different forms and shapes but I think it does make you a little bit more attractive a little bit more probably I don't know how much that little bit is but you've seen a little yeah okay no going back to like a brotherly conversation when guys are not on no [ __ ] when they're basically masturbating everyday which is a lot of guys the view the opposite gender in a certain way like you know in terms of attractiveness a lot of times boys don't do how the person looks or
you know whatever they interact so does your definition of attraction change when you retain semen for so long do you look beyond the physical yeah yeah it is you know because if I have to give you some examples why don't you feel this is are you attracted to a woman or if you're a male or I attracted to a man if you're a female what are you attracted to and why is that attraction why's that attractiveness changing from seeing us a certain woman or a man of a certain age versus man or women of a
certain age why can't you feel the same both of them are opposite sex and then why are you giving more to or what he or she's marrying what color of the hair is or certain body parts etc etc why is it that way so the physical attraction is very very superficial right I mean what are you planning and what are you thinking of it and why is it and if you're actually trying to do I mean with what does Vipassana teach you if people you know if you've done with Pastner in the person there are
two parts that is anapana which is focusing on the breath just the normal inhalation exhalation of the breath and my partner is focusing on body parts so we're actually trying when you see I mean this is another exercise that you know you stroke everybody else can do it the moment you feel attractive attracted just see within yourself how was your heartbeat changing what feelings are you coming where is a sensation why is it going to the sexual organs are not to the heart why are you not feeling compassion and love for that person why not
feeling empathy for that person why you're not feeling that oh he or she is also my sister she killed me my god mother why is that not happening and oh okay know where do I take her tonight or why do I take him out tonight Oh what should I do with that person why is that happening it's a question that everybody needs to know an answer than me telling what will happen because if I say what will happen people listening to this or seeing this will start visualizing a cha America being over I know mine
are hard waited an hour I think reactions would be individualistic but if you actually start thinking that okay I need to do what am I actually feeling I mean I'm not saying having sex is wrong or being physical is wrong no why why what is it and is it with are you is it happening with multiple people what is it that you're feeling good about it what is it that you're feeling at the end of the day why somebody doing that it's for that point millisecond of ejaculation time right after that you're tired yeah and
then you are you don't feel like doing it for for some time and then you get back why because the body clock also takes some times to assimilate that and bring back energy or whatever right but for 15 minutes or 10 minutes or whatever it is I mean after having a orgasm or after ensuring that ejaculation happens why is why are you not feeling it for the next 10 minutes what's the reason you tell me I don't know because I think I mean I've never had sex so I don't know what it does what you
after that what's what's your opinion on sex right now nothing I think is beautiful it's about how one perceives it I think it's it's definitely need one of the most beautiful things because what does sex do it creates a new life so I think it is one of the most beautiful things ever but again why multiple people oh is it with one person because if you really think you know the birth of a baby the birth of a child is so pure I mean because even while having sex between a couple at least I've heard
this a lot I can't say have experienced it is the thought also of the couple is super important when you're having sex when you decide to have a child because it's your the child comes up with that thought yeah it's the kind of energy gets built in with that thought how are you feeling are you compassionate are you lovable are you you know all of it right you know because all of us have two legs two hands a brain and so on so forth right yeah but why are some people better than us why is
why are some people in more materialistic terms more successful in terms of whether it's Fame money energy stroke what what is the reason yeah I think it it all even sums up with I'd say karma which is your past life stroke what you have your parents have had you in their moment yeah all of it mattered according to me I maybe I mean like I said different people have different opinions and I have my own no I've read no yogic theories on this which say that it's a combination of the feeling that the parents are
having while having along with the Karma of a connect soon so if that feeling matches with a level level of Karma for certain soul that's all gets attracted into that family that's what the world of your verses I mean I've not gone deep into that subject with respect to my guru ji and my teachings but I touched upon it and I think what you said is pretty much in line with what I've said yeah in terms of thought processes while wanting to have that child because it is one of the most beautiful feelings right I
mean you're giving birth to a child the mother is having that child for over nine months and and there is a new being I mean today I think the the feeling of the human being is the most precious feeling on the planet because and that one life that comes out one life that comes out of a mother's womb that sperm has already a champion because millions and trillions of sperms get released but one gets into the womb and that becomes a child or a living being sorry so yeah bro okay straight up question do you
were horny now like do you get like do you feel lust I mean by all means yes if I say I don't I will be breaking one of my precepts which is lying so I can't lie I do I do I mean like I said I'm not enlightened or anywhere close to that I do but the the part is I'm conscious I know what to do if I get such a feeling and I know how do I turn that into compassion how do I turn that to love and and that gets failed away because compassion
and love for who yourself well for the other person for myself and my feeling towards the other person how do I change that into I mean you you just said some time back that you've seen how women are with me why because it's not the fact that that they feel safe but it's also the fact that I don't feel anything you know on that day when you were there I met that girl for the second time she was on my lap while taking a picture right yeah why yeah because they know your internal energy yet
I don't know about that but I think it's it's it's kind of a mutual thing that I'm also fine yeah there's just another person you've I don't I have that if a man sits on my lap what's the reason or if 85 year old sits on my lap what is the reason yeah what is it it is attracting what is it so like you know somebody said when you feel that immediately think of would you still be a tragedy if that person becomes super old and it's not varying great clothes is got wrinkles on the
face and then your mind and your body and your heart will immediately changes why it's the same thing I mean the body is the same everything is the same so and it's very momentary yeah I've been a very moment yeah I feel we live in a society where people chase physical pleasures or not like and they say that is the sad but yeah the greatest pleasures are mental and spiritual but not everyone discovers those by all means yes I mean the kinds of stuff that's happened to me in my life by not lying by following
the other stuff is just absolutely fabulous it gives a sense of you know a sense of wow I didn't know this also could happen exactly every time something happened I'm like wow this also could happen this also could happen this also could happen great could you give us some instances like this yeah I mean like I'll give you one in terms of what happened when I was not lying okay I don't lie at all right so this is told I and I wish to believe that the nature kind of after its testing phase it also
kinds of puts together energy in such a manner where since you've been practicing it for a long time you continue being over it you know it kind of brings power together that ABC own eyes when they go looking critically in this more so I don't lie right I stop lying extra extra there's one fine day so I'm metrosexual which means I love taking care of myself self-care I do my pedicure manicure or exit racks dry Ram I love shopping and I go out with friends you know women men take them for shopping chose clothes for
them all of that so that was a really really dear friend of mine one day called me up and said I wish what should I wear I have an event should I wear black or should I wear red so I said I think you look better in red it should wear the red so she said I'm gonna wear black and she cut the phone like hey I'm like why would you why would someone call me ask me and do the opposite I said okay great I was in my studio in Chennai I was talking to
you know the entrances from beyond I was talking to somebody somebody came from BM and hit me hard on my back I'm like what the hell like who's this and it was my friend who called me and she's wearing red like what happened to you like why did you wear red she's like service because of you would happen I'm like what did I do you asked me a question I said wear red and you said no you're gonna have a black you cut the phone and you're wearing red in front Amina she said no when
I was ironing my black dress it got burned so I'm like wait wait I didn't do it I didn't do anything she said no it's because of your you Jing stood in all of that I said no this is no way I'm not I'm not and then I went to my teacher Guruji was in fact sitting inside the studio and oh Jesus how much much more like don't say anything because cuz you've been following this nature will transpire in a manner that it'll happen so don't say anything so what happened was when people started asking
me questions I started saying job kwacha Hoonah whoa whatever needs to happen for you that'll happen so basically you're indirectly manifesting things I think so I mean before this incident the first time it ever happened was I thought it was a it was a intuitive you know one of or DejaVu movement or whatever people call it one of my very dear friend was crying because she didn't know visa to London so I was like hey don't worry you know what you'll get your visa for example today is number 27 I totally will get your visa
now December 25th and you leave on December 26 she's like I was sure I'm like 100% you'll get it she called me up on December 25th her first question was for legit I don't lie so it's full of [ __ ] are you human or human God so I'm like what I'm what are you saying is that I got my UK visa I said great it's good you were crying about it she's a Irish but today's 25th I said okay so you said 25th that I'm going tomorrow I'm like wow I said that was an
accident I mean oh great there's no problem man I didn't really connected to that then when this happened when the dress incident happened is when I'm when I went and told my teacher his her wish don't say anything so then whenever people ask me will this happen to me this happened to me this happened to me I started saying listen whatever needs to happen for you will happen and whatever happens will happen for the good so that's it bro will I become a billionaire like I said whatever happened will happen for the good okay good
nice nice safe very safe absolutely intuition bro that's something I want to talk to you about you actually had Shilpa Shetty on the podcast and no she spoke about how this is having even a bit of a spiritual lifestyle clean lifestyle taking care of a body your mind your spiritual body can really increase the power of your intuition for the viewer who hasn't heard this word before the common word which people use for intuition is sixth sense knowing things before they happen knowing a vibe of a person knowing the vibe of a situation understanding moments
before they happen understanding what you should be doing in a particular moment in a particular crossroads in life my question to you bro this whole spiritual lifestyle of taking everybody not just in a healthy or healthy guy or fit guy but not just that you're going one step further and following nofap for so long and you know those five precepts you spoke about so you're taking care of your whole existence on another level how much does this helped your intuition and how much is your intuition helped your career honestly speaking my intuition yes it's it's
extremely unreal and I I there are a lot of incidences that has been pretty amazing like you know no lying and actually saying that and that happening etc so it's been very very good in terms of what has transpired because of intuition but I think that I have never consciously used it for my or whatever because yoga my teacher has taught me one thing guru juice told me that service what is spirituality spirituality in Hindi means at the Atma which means up nature of fauna which means coming to oneself which means being in the present
so if I'm wanting to be in the present and trying to say a chuckle Kahuna wallah hey and or kind of wanting it to be something being intuitive about it or thinking about it I'm very clearly breaking the practice of being in the present right so I've never consciously tried to be intuitive but I think when it automatically happens right like when I met you wow great you said let's do this and I said hey brilliant no problem let's do it but it's whether you call it into - whether you call it a feeling of
good vibe whether you call it because everybody has it everybody's intuitive in nature everybody gets vibes it's just as some realize it because what is what is coincidence I don't know what is coincidence I don't believe in coincidence you're like okay I met this person coincidentally nay you would have thought something at some point of your life for this to happen it would have happened I always wanted to meet a guy who's followed no.5 for like night and do a podcast I think that's right yeah I mean it's unreal I mean I I mean if
I have to give you another incident right I think two three four years ago I when I was in in my schooling's I used to do a lot of theater so I've done four plays very very small roles in the place but they were all drama and Mahabharata related etc so I used to tell my I used to tell my friends and peer group that I will do a movie and I would like to do my first movie with Christopher Nolan mmm everybody's laughed the hell out of them I'm like Chennai I mean we're I
mean you've done a play like what are you talking about Christopher Nolan Christopher not all of you listening to this by yeah so and they'd be like what are you saying I said listening why what's wrong you could think hi and then started my company and I said you know what I want some really cool you got people investing in me like you know why Jennifer Lopez or and I named a few other people who probably does yoga and very very serious about it they laughed their lungs out they're like no salvation mean like like
let's think real man I mean there is Jennifer Lopez where is your first to do in China in Mount Road but I have met Jennifer Lopez now I have flown with her in a private jet to watch her concert she's an investor in my company and it happened now some people will say coincidence some people will say you've manifested that I believe I genuinely manifested it I believed in it and I made it happen like you know few minutes back you're mister dr. Radhakrishnan said that Malayalees make things happen and I think I'm one of
them yeah yeah by the way check out that podcast beautiful episode with dr. Radhakrishnan yeah absolutely so I mean I think intuition is is there in everybody yeah it's how you can CH analyze it activate it it's also blocked due to intoxication absolutely negative thoughts yeah yeah it's one of our chakras where you the intuition sixth sense is called your third eye yeah the third eye is called the agya chakra it's the sixth chakra and the body before you reach your crown chakra yeah and if you are able to open it that's intuition yeah and
that happens because of various practices energy prana meditation yoga Exeter Exeter Exeter do you have an intensive meditation practice even today like what do you do can you just like Quran us to it um I mean first for the lack of a better word for simple terms for viewers to understand it is the anapana of a Basra okay which is focusing on your breath because I believe there are many many forms of meditations available today you know visualizations sound twin hearts transcendental so on and so forth but I think the meditation of breath which is
focusing on your normal and natural breath not inhaling and exhaling deeply because if you are inhaling and exhaling deeply you are doing something you are inhaling or exhaling you're doing something but how do you bring yourself to the present is to focus on the present which is your bed which is your normal and natural flow when you're trying to focus on your breath you will get thoughts you your focus will go to different places but it's fine so what happens is your focusing thought comes don't get involved in it be an observer thoughts will go
next art will come will go next will go next will go like leaves in a river yeah absolutely go because why change is the only constant as it keeps going as yet you can increase the timespan of your focus on your breath even if you can do it for 30 seconds right and not be focused you are in like a different stage altogether and then in your waking life it increases your focus levels absolutely by all means by all means I mean one hour of yoga a day will sort your for 23 hours of your
day and you'll be so energetic you don't need X amount of hours of sleep between 4 to 6 hours of sleep is great yeah great great great because at the end of the day quality's critical and not quantity right so for a regular guy out there bro you've had so many life experiences you've kind of tooled with IPL teams you've almost you played domestic record you've like set up a super successful company now three quick life learnings and also you can include yogic learnings in within these three sea I think being true and authentic to
what you're doing is very critical whether be true to yourself and as much as it's going to be difficult rome wasn't built in a day it's easier said than done all these other things can come up as Commons when you pull it up but Rome was built things were done so I always say the first step to win a hundred meter race is to take that first step right so being authentic and true to yourself and not getting too much pushed or modified modified stroked bombarded by environment peer group etc is very very critical second
I would say is self-care is very important okay what I mean self-care is self-care both physical and mentally mmm like you know just take care of yourself there's a very thin line between being selfish and selfless you have to take care of yourself you have to love yourself to either take care of others to love others to do good I mean you can say I can build a great business a billion dollar company but what happens after that I mean if people hear Steve Jobs his last few lines when he was you know passing away
and leaving his this beautiful world people will come to know what he said so self-care is very very important and self-care can be different aspects and I would largely say have a mix of both mental and physical whether it's gym and yoga functional training but do some form of breathing stroke mindful practices that can make you believe in yourself make you come to the present and you know just ensure that you become a better version of yourself every day so that's number two number three is whether it's entrepreneurs whether it's you know whether it's generally
anybody being a people person is very critical right so I think I always tell people you know whether what is it when they ask me what is it you need to be a good CEO I said the only thing you need to know is people management and if people love you they are here to stay you know employees also employees do not leave companies they leave employers so it's very important to be a good employer if you're an employer and if you're a good employee your immediate team that's reporting in to you or working with
you etc is very very important so if you're trying to kind of just balance these three things out in your life I think lot of things can happen you know when you're taking care of yourself you are bound to say okay wow such I mean things happen to me I want to spread this word so why did I start because I saw so many changes in my son I'm like the best I could do is spread this message and I said let's go all out and spread this message that's how the yoga company was started
and formed etc self care and third be a people person I think these three things just collectively will make you a more compassionate person please so I always say one thing that you know love like there is no tomorrow and if tomorrow comes love again beautiful sorry achieve my brother thank you thank you so much Don we thank you for having me on your show it's it's a pleasure thank you I'm honored humbled it was a pleasure listening to you learning from you my brother No thank you so much I'm gonna be linking all of
