Sadhguru: “If you are exuberant, joyful and wonderful, your immune system will function much better than when you are worried and distressed. One fundamental thing is to keep this life exuberant and alive, not depressive. It may find expression in the form of joy, love, meditation or ultimate stillness. We do not know if we will be able to prevent this virus from entering our homes and our bodies. We are making an attempt. But we can do this much: we can remain as dynamic as the virus. It is very dynamic and is doing its job really well. We must do ours very well as human beings.”
