Sadhguru\u2019s\u00a0Inner Engineering is a pioneering book within the self-help and meditative genres. It\u2019s full of wisdom and information that when executed on, has the ability to change lives. From energy work and chakra meditations to micro adjustments and paradigm shifts, every page provides great resources for a happy life. Within this phenomenal book is a chapter that I believe deserves challenging and redefining. As some of its core ideas when not properly explored can lead to confusion and negative results.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
No Boundary, No Burden is the fifth chapter within part one of the book. I am no stranger to the concept of personal boundaries. As a masterful people pleaser, I work every day to build up my personal boundaries. Separating my needs and wants into clear desires that I can communicate to my husband, children, and coworkers. It\u2019s taken a lifetime<\/a> of work, learning from gurus, self-help practitioners<\/strong>, and therapists to learn how to set clear boundaries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n When I found Sadhguru\u2019s Inner Engineering I really appreciated what it had to say about personal responsibility. However, I\u2019ve noticed a tendency for people to misinterpret or misuse the teachings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Chapter Five\u2019s Core Parable:<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n Sadhguru\u2019s fifth chapter begins with a parable about a couple who is debating who is responsible for closing the front door. Both people have their reasons for shirking responsibility, and subsequently refuse to shut the door. This refusal goes on for hours until eventually bandits enter through the front door and pillage the house. Taking valuables, kissing the wife, and nearly shaving the man\u2019s face. Throughout the story the couple refuses to act, because they believe it is the responsibility of the other to act. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
