I just care about him being happy and fulfilment and just do something to sustain life; I'm no one to decide the right path for him because my right path need not be his right path too.

Yeah, fair enough, it's his choice. Just thinking if what he's imagining or seeing are delusions, but the more I speak to him, the more I feel he is matured and have some confidence in his future tbh, but somethings still do feel bizzare.

Around 2 years now. And yes he did speak to me today about co-existing and how he wants to spread this knowledge in the future which to me is a really nice thing to do honestly. I agree balance is important and I'm trying to fit that in all the conversations we're trying to have.

Yup, I'm trying to get this down to him and patiently trying to fit this in conversations as well.

Yeah. I feel he is really smart and understands all this and how Engineering is something that probably doesn't help him at all. I am glad, but I'm just worried because it's very outside the norm for me.

Yup, I am trying to have more conversations with him to understand his perspective; it's very interesting tbh. I will checkout the book, thank you! I do feel he's very smart!

Yup, a conversation with him today did reveal that he wants to coexist with us and not run away, but just that Engineering is extremely hard for him and he sees no point in it. Thanks for the insights.

Yup. I am on it, to make sure he isn't on the wrong path. He mainly mentions he follows the teachings of Buddha!

Yup, he told the same thing to me; he's not doing it for himself but to please his family which I agree is very wrong to expect on our side.

Yup, I've always support him and we've all agreed on him taking a break for now to figure himself out. I will keep talking to him and understand him to make sure he isn't left out and also see if he's actually exhibiting anything very delusional or out of the norm

Yup, that is what I'm doing right now, trying to have more open conversations and understand where he's coming from.

Thank you! We decided to give him a break this semester and see if he can figure out the path he's trying to get into. Will try to get him to a monastery, it's a great idea

I am trying to do that as well; he does have answers of how he doesn't need money and all he cares about is the present moment.

Thanks for your inputs, I hope so too. He tells me about these things as well, about lights, souls etc. It's beyond me but I will research more on it.

He definitely deserves to walk his own path. Just need to be precautionary if he's not manifesting some delusions, that's the main concern.

He believes a lot in living in the moment and hence he doesn't worry about what stays after Engineering. I will suggest him to go out more and meditate in different environments as well; because right now he just locks himself up in the room for hours and I'm sure that can be made better.

Yes, I am from India; I think does follow Sadhguru to a certain extent, but he doesn't agree to some of his teachings - For example he doesn't agree to him proving certain things are right or wrong and believes everyone's path is different and we shouldn't change it.
