Stunned by Sadhguru's energy levels after two brain surgeries, actor Madhavan asks what he eats every morning? Spiritual guru replies

Renowned spiritual guru Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev, who underwent two brain surgeries in 2024, has once again amazed people with his extraordinary recovery. At 67, the Isha Foundation founder is right now on a challenging motorcycle journey to Mount Kailash, just months after dealing with a serious head injury. Actor R Madhavan, who recently interacted with him, was left stunned by the guru’s energy and drive.

What does Sadhguru eats every morning?

During their candid conversation on Sadhguru YouTube channel, Madhavan expressed admiration for Sadhguru's decision to take on such a risky expedition, especially after a medical condition as serious as a subdural hematoma. While most people would rest or limit their activity, Sadhguru chose to ride through rugged terrain, in rain and mud, to reach Kailash. Curious, Madhavan asked him what fuels this incredible stamina and spirit.



Smiling, Sadhguru shared that his breakfast was nothing elaborate, just a "simple plate of upma" in morning. For the spiritual leader, nourishment isn't about luxury but simplicity. It’s not what he eats, but how he lives.

The conversation also took a personal turn when Sadhguru opened up about how he injured himself. He described an incident at home involving a monkey that led him to hit his head against a glass door. Though he felt fine at first, he later learned that he had internal bleeding beneath the skull. Despite this, he continued with his regular schedule before finally getting a scan that revealed the need for surgery. He calmly explained that he had two such surgeries within months of each other.

When asked why he chose to go to Mount Kailash after such a serious medical ordeal, Sadhguru said it was his way of offering himself to the divine. He had been visiting the sacred mountain for years, but due to travel restrictions and health issues, he had missed a few pilgrimages. This time, despite everything, he felt the calling again.

About R Madhavan's upcoming project

Meanwhile, actor Madhavan is preparing for his upcoming film De De Pyaar De 2, set to hit theatres on November 14, 2025, alongside Ajay Devgn and Rakul Preet Singh. But for now, even he admits, few things are as inspiring as Sadhguru’s extraordinary comeback.
