Vedanta - More to Life than Deals

SADHGURU JAGGI VASUDEV





If you really want the best deal in life, stop making deals.Yet, your very demeanour should be such that your client is simply bowled over. This is not a trick. The deal will happen if it's necessary; it won't happen if it's not. It is for the well-being of both parties, so it must be needed by both of you. Once we're in this world, there are transactions, personal or otherwise.Let's say you're in love. If you are not fully involved, you will try to strike a deal. Once a bachelor who had been wooing an attractive woman for long mustered the courage to pro pose to her.
“There are quite a lot of advantages to being a bache lor,“ he began, “but there comes a time when one longs for the companionship of another being. A being who will regard one as perfect, as an idol to be worshipped and treated as one's absolute own, who will be kind and faithful when times are tough and hard, who will share one's joys and sorrows.“
To his delight, he saw a sympathetic gleam in her eyes. She nodded in agreement and then said, “I think it's a great idea! Can I help you choose a pup?“ So, to get mileage out of a deal, you have to first assess the level of intelligence of the other party . If you just give of yourself and see how both of you can be benefited from the deal, then whenever it is possible, it will happen.
