As children we love using imagination as part of our play. When creativity flows effortlessly, we are joyously occupied for hours and all is well.
We often do the same in our adult lives when it is a creative project or work we enjoy.
However, the reverse is also true. Imagination can also go out of control. For example, children have phobias such as monsters underneath the bed or a dark room. Adults may have the fear of flying or public speaking.
The only difference is we don’t enjoy it when it goes out of our control.
When imagination overtakes rationality or reality, it’s not a pleasant experience. Therefore, Sadhguru says: “just change your channel”.
Essentially, a certain flexibility of mind is important to cultivate.
