Sadhguru: So this breath or what conducts the breath, in yoga we call this the koorma nadi. You know what’s a koorma? Not kuruma (Laughter) Koor… (Laughs) No I saw some tongues (Laughter)… Koorma means a turtle or a tortoise, an amphibious creature, it’s in the water but it can also venture out. So you are a… you can become an amphibious creature if you master this koorma nadi, that means you are in the body but you can be little outside the physical nature because this is your desire. Your desire is not to leave the physical for good, you want to be rooted in the physical but you want to have a taste of what is beyond, this is human desire always.

Yes or no? The only way your life’s ex… experience can be enhanced is by expanding your perception. If your eyes can see something that it cannot see right now, your experience is enhanced. If your ears can hear something that you cannot hear something right now, your experience is enhanced. Like this if your perception is enhanced only then your experience is enhanced, otherwise you are only going on imagining things within the limited data that you have already gathered, yes? The only way to enhance is to expand or to come out.

This is like a rope – let’s say we pull out your breath right now, if I take away your breath what will happen? You and your body will fall apart. Right now in your experience you are the body sitting here but this rice and ch… chintha thokku and gomukoora everything is gathered up here and sitting here. Yes or no? Yes? It’s the food that you’ve eaten. Is this an accumulation? Do you understand this is an accumulation?
