Sadhguru is a yogi, mystic and visionary. Named one of India's 50 most influential people, and recipient of 3 presidential awards, Sadhguru has touched the lives of millions worldwide through his transformational programs. He is also an internationally renowned speaker and author of the New York Times bestsellers "Inner Engineering" and Karma," Sadhguru has been an influential voice at major global forums like the United Nations and the World Economic Forum (pause), addressing issues as diverse as socioeconomic development, leadership, and spirituality. Additionally, he established Isha Foundation, a non-profit, volunteer-run organization supported by over 16 million volunteers worldwide, and has initiated several projects for social revitalization, education, and the environment.

The first half-hour of the interview is about the soil of the earth and its importance. Because he believes we are all connected back to the soil from which we came and that we can only be as healthy as the soil of the Earth, he works in the agricultural field to revitalize topsoil.

From there this notion of soil, Sadhguru expands on his thoughts and tools for elevating consciousness. What can people do to achieve a joyous state of mind?

Yoga gets the lion's share of the second half of the interview. Sadhguru tells us how real Yoga is practiced and its origins.

The last hour? Extraterrestrial beings.
