In a video to the British Ministry of Defense, Sadhguru talked about the significance of the presence of the defense forces; how they are willing to risk their lives to help maintain peace on the planet and preserve peace with their presence. He highlighted the importance of meditation in jobs with the potential for high-stress situations and expressed hope that the need for defense forces might come down in the future. Sadhguru said, “Soldiers are not some machines or robots; they are human beings. They need to be treated as human beings. The more humane they are, the better soldiers they will make.”
