Isha Foundation founder Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev Sunday said the reason for hue and cry over unemployment was because of people's preference for one kind of a job, when there were many others around.
Isha Foundation founder Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev Sunday said the reason for hue and cry over unemployment was because of people's preference for one kind of a job, when there were many others around.
"In this country, nobody should be talking about unemployment as there is so much to be done in India. The problem is people look for a certain kind of job, when there are many other kinds of jobs around," he said at the sixth session of Youth and Truth series at IIM-B campus.
Sadhguru was replying to a query from students on unemployment in India.
Noting that there were several problems afflicting the country, he said people should use their knowledge to find solutions to them.
"If you have a working brain and a seeing eye, there are thousands of things to be done right around you.
If you are enterprising, can the world stop you? Where there is a problem, there is a possibility," he added.
Sadhguru further said India never had role models in its culture because the idea was about constantly trying to evolve oneself.
"Having a role model is like a mango tree wanting to become like a coconut tree," he said.
Sadhguru will travel to Hyderabad for the next session on September 18.
Meanwhile, on Saturday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi lauded Isha Foundation founder for carrying forward the Swachh Bharat Movement in Tamil Nadu and asked its volunteers to further strengthen it.
Interacting with Sadhguru via video conferencing after the launch of the "Swachhata Hi Seva" campaign, the Prime Minister said he himself had seen Sadhgurus dedicated efforts to strengthen the campaign by keeping rivers clean.
PM Modi said he believed that Sadhgurus blessings would strengthen and further purify this sense of service.
"Swatch Bharat is not a movement by a certain government. This is not even the Prime Minister's Movement. This is the movement of Bharat, this is the movement of every citizen.
Tremendous things have happened (on cleanliness), thanks to the Prime Minister," Sadhguru said.
He said the Isha Foundation would form citizens' committees in 37 municipalities and 12 city corporations to support the administration in achieving cleanliness and hygiene for everyone.
A total of 10,000 volunteers in Chennai would be roped in to make their areas clean, he said.
To mark the launch of the campaign on behalf of the Foundation, its volunteeers in Puducherry have started with a cleaning drive at the Vedhapureshwarar Shiva Temple in the Union Territory, he said.
The 'Swachhata Hi Seva' movement aims at generating greater public participation towards Swachhta (cleanliness) and is being organised in the run-up to the fourth anniversary of the Swachh Bharat Mission, on October 2 2018, which will also mark the commencement of the 150th birth anniversary celebrations of Mahatma Gandhi.
