Sadhguru recounts his encounter with a tantric who claimed he had trapped ghosts in bottles and fed them his own blood, and his own extreme experiment with death — consuming 98 barbiturates to experience death firsthand. He also speaks about the importance of coming to terms with one's mortality in order to organize and live life sensibly.
