Sadhguru Tips: What age is appropriate to start dating someone? Young people frequently ask this issue, and Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev offers an insightful take on the subject. He stresses that physical interactions shouldn’t be the only thing that characterise a relationship. Rather, the emphasis need to be on creating deep bonds that go beyond just physical attractiveness.
Rethinking Relationships
Sadhguru claims that relationships are frequently misinterpreted and unduly connected to physical closeness. People have lovers and girlfriends from a young age, but they are only casual relationships with no deeper meaning. But thanks in large part to Western cultures, partnerships are now more often associated with physical contact in society. Sadhguru urges us to think about the wider range of interactions in which there are other forms of connection outside physical touch. He contends that genuine intimacy is not merely physical contact but also a link of energy, emotions, and thoughts.
The Power of Non-Physical Connections
According to Sadhguru, relationships with a foundation in deeper ties—like emotional or spiritual ties—can be more meaningful and lasting than ones that are just focused on physical desire. He emphasises that although having a sexual relationship could be important or a matter of preference at some points in life, it shouldn’t define or restrict friendships. Meaningful relationships can be formed even in the absence of physical contact. He stresses that using this strategy can result in deeper, more fulfilling relationships with a great number of people.
Focus on Personal Growth During Youth
In response to a query regarding the ideal age for a partner, Sadhguru suggests delaying entering into committed relationships. He emphasises the value of concentrating on one’s own development, particularly in the formative years of youth and the early stages of adulthood. There is a lot of potential and energy in these years. Sadhguru advises directing this energy on self-improvement, education, and personal development rather than allowing it to be diverted by emotional or physical connections that could hinder one’s progress.
Learning from Nature
Sadhguru uses the example of a mango tree to make his point. Young individuals shouldn’t jump into relationships too quickly, much as mango growers remove early blossoms to allow the tree to reach its full potential. In the long run, this method makes the tree stronger and produces more fruit. In the same way, people can reach a better state of being and have more satisfying experiences in life by putting greater emphasis on their personal development and postponing getting into intimate relationships.
