How to Forget Someone You Love? Sadhguru

Questioner: Sadhguru, how to move on after a breakup?

Sadhguru: Your body has a tremendous amount of memory. This memory is on many different levels. There is evolutionary memory, genetic memory, karmic memory, conscious and unconscious levels of memories and articulate and inarticulate levels of memories. You do not remember how your great-great-grandfather looked like, but his nose is sitting on your face. So obviously your body is carrying a very complex mechanism of memory.
When this body is capable of such a complex sense of memory, do you think it is not gathering memory with whatever you touch and feel and relate with? It is gathering an enormous amount of memory. For example, going up and down the steps looks very simple, but it is very complex. Your body has to remember, otherwise it cannot go up and go down so easily. Today the sports experts are talking about muscle memory – building memory into their system so that the sport can be executed at a certain level of efficiency. This is not only for sport or for a specific activity; you are imbibing so much memory every day. If there is a certain kind of cohesiveness to this memory, it will become productive. If there is a certain sense of chaos to this memory, then you may know everything, but this memory will work against you because it is contradictory and conflicting within itself.
