Vesuvius. When it erupted, it caught people by surprise and buried the city in soot and ash and left it covered and perfectly preserved for hundreds of years. Now much of it has been uncovered and it is a sad historical marvel and many people were frozen in time forever. 2.

The Space Shuttle launch work

 However, I think it’s still really important to learn about. After all, some of this technology is still being used for space programs. In preparation for this video, I read a few books. One of them was called Riding Rockets, and it was written by three-time astronaut Mike Mullane . He does a good job of capturing what it was like to ride on the space shuttle.  I reached out to Mike, and he was really helpful. He made a lot of good suggestion. This is the Orbiter Vehicle, the part that looks like an airplane and carries the astronauts and payloads into space. I have a video all about the inside of the Orbiter Vehicle. I’ll put a link in the video description down below. It takes so much fuel to get into space that we need a really big gas tank. That’s what the orange external tank is for. It provides the fuel for the three Space Shuttle Main Engines. Even this isn’t enough to launch us into space. We need two extra rockets on each side. These are called the Solid Rocket Boost...

How Do We Handle Hard Times in Life?

Yogi, mystic and visionary, Sadhguru is a spiritual master with a difference. An arresting blend of profundity and pragmatism, his life and work serves as a reminder that yoga is a contemporary science, vitally relevant to our times.  When you will learn -  how to handle my thought, how to handle my emotion. We will give you tools how to figure this machine out...whatever the issue we will do our best,  but this should not be an issue. Questioner:  In life there are many phases where  we feel that we are depressed, we are lonely, and when everybody is against us, and there’s no one to,  you know, guide us or talk about it. So at that moment, how should we handle it, or how should we deal with it? Sad guru: See, this is an unfortunate condition that a  whole lot of human beings are in – in  their experience, in their personal experience, life is like, “me versus the universe”. Being in competition with the universe is a stupid thing to do. That’s n...

Times the Impossible Became Possible

We’ve all had moments where we’ve thought we did the unthinkable. Most of us sadly don’t have a camera on us at all times to capture these things happening. But few people are lucky enough to be caught on video when they somehow make the impossible seem possible. Ready to see these awesome people? We’ve all had moments where we’ve thought we did the unthinkable. Most of us sadly don’t have a camera on us at all times to capture these things happening. But few people are lucky enough to be caught on video when they somehow make the impossible seem possible. Ready to see these awesome people? Let’s get it on! This is hardly an achievement, but it’s one of the most amazing things you’ll ever see. It’s a guy falling off his skateboard. But wait. It was accidentally timed so perfectly that the board misses hitting anyone by rolling between the legs of not just one, but two people who are right in front of it! Don’t you wish life came together this perfectly all the time? Sometimes you don’t...

What is the Purpose of Life?

Yogi, mystic and visionary, Sadhguru is a spiritual master with a difference. An arresting blend of profundity and pragmatism, his life and work serves as a reminder that yoga is a contemporary science, vitally relevant to our times.  Questioner: What’s… what the purpose of life is for me, if you can give an insight on that? Sad guru: Isn’t it fantastic that if there is no purpose, you have nothing to fulfill, you can just live? but you want a purpose and not a simple purpose, you want a God-given purpose. It’s very dangerous. People who think they have a God-given purpose are doing the cruelest things on the planet. Yes or no? They are doing the most horrible things and they’ve always been doing the most horrible things because when you have a God-given purpose, life here becomes less important than your purpose. No, life is important. Life is important - when I say life,  I am not talking about your family, your work, what you do, what you do not do, you party I am not talki...
