Sadhguru: So, are you ready?
The special thing about the Frisbee is, it flies, not only because of the speed, beacuse
of also the spin.
NASA air planes, not like this; no wings, simply like this.
See, the moment you see it, you must be able to judge where it's going to land.
Who is going to try first?
Speakers (Samskriti students): Me, me.
Sadhguru: What we do is, don't try to throw it far, okay?
What you do is, just get this, like that.
See, it must land like that.
Hold the hand easy, this is the movement, okay?
This should happen.
Okay, let's take up few things.
You know the birds, the airplanes, insects – we'll take these three to start with.
All these three fly, but they're flying in three different ways.
What's different about their flight?
Hmm?
Speaker (Samskriti student): Aeroplane is controlled by a person.
Sadhguru: Not like that.
I'm saying as a flying instrument, what's different?
Speaker (Samskriti student): Birds flap their wings.
Sadhguru: Yes.
The birds are flapping their wings, generally.
Insects are doing at a tremendous speed, wing flapping.
Birds are doing it a little more gently.
Airplane is not flapping.
So, how is it that it flies?
This is a better way to throw it.
Hold it this way, not, not gripping it like this.
Just holding it this way, lightly.
When you do this, the important thing is not this (Gestures).
The important thing is this.
Okay?
Better.
So, right now, a Frisbee has no wings.
Yes?
So, it has to fly.
So, all it needs is, it has the shape, it needs some speed.
And the special thing about the Frisbee is, it flies, not only because of the speed because
of also the spin.
If there is no spin, it won't fly.
Why does a cloud fly?
Speaker (Samskriti students): It's lighter.
It's light.
Sadhguru: Hmm?
It's lighter, so it's flying.
But an airplane is not lighter, isn't it?
It is much, much heavier than the air.
But still it flies, why?
Bird is also heavier than the air, still it flies, isn't it?
Speaker (Samskriti student): Because the wings and all.
Sadhguru: Wings are not flapping.
Speaker (Samskriti students): The ways... the way it's made, the propeller pushes it.
Sadhguru: Hmm?
Speaker (Samskriti students): The propeller... the propeller pushing it.
Sadhguru: See, propeller is getting it the speed.
Okay?
Propeller is just a fan, either a propeller or a jet, is just a propulsion; it is just
taking it forward.
So, it should be a fast car but it's flying, why?
Speakers (Samskriti students): Wow!
Sadhguru: Like this, all that's happening is when the wind comes and hits this, the
air, it goes up, it goes up like that.
Before it can fold back, there's a distance.
It can only fold back like this, somewhere.
It can't fold back here because of the speed.
So, once this goes there's a vacuum, it pulls it up.
So, the wing lifts up.
They are like this.
The newer NASA airplanes are like this, no wings, just made like a slab of metal.
Simply like this.
Because they're able to kick up big speed, really high speeds, because of that no wings.
Just this itself will make it fly.
So, when you fly the Frisbee, one thing is, it's not about exerting too much power.
It's about being able to judge the air, how it's flowing, and able to put the face of
the Frisbee, into the air.
If you do it like this, it won't go.
You have to find... you must have a feel for the air.
I want all of you to stand there, little away from each other and just move your hand as
fast as you can and feel the air and tell me, which way you want to throw the Frisbee.
See, right now, this is a difficult place to throw because wind is blowing from behind
me.
But we'll do this.
Speakers (Samskriti students): Wow!
Sadhguru: Because it's coming from behind, it doesn't carry.
It is just going and dropping off.
If I throw it this way, now it will go much better.
If I throw it in this direction now, it will fly much, much better.
Because it's flowing into the wind.
Now, we will throw it into the wind.
Sadhguru: Here, can you hear me?
Speakers (Samskriti students): Yeah.
Sadhguru: See, when I throw it, the way it is bending here, you must already anticipate
it and be in the right place.
Whoever is closest must be in that place before it lands, okay?
Do not run for the Frisbee, you must be able to stand there and say, where it's going to
fall.
Okay?
Tell me where?
Speakers (Samskriti students): (Sounds like – That one?)
Sadhguru: Catch it!
Yeah (Applause).
So, the moment you see it, you must be able to judge where it's going to land.
It comes, you understand that it's not only moving this way, there...
there's a lot of spin.
Because of the spin, it'll correct itself and it may correct itself more; if it just
corrects enough it will go like this.
If it corrects more, most probably it is going to go this way.
If it loses speed also, it's going to go this way.
So, I want you to not throw it harder and harder.
Like, put a circle there.
Get control over the Frisbee, speed will easily come later.
But those who have no control, speed is no use, they'll be flying all over the place
and nobody can catch it and it doesn't mean anything.
Okay.
Okay, like this you just land it.
It must land inside.
Good (Applause).
First thing is to learn to land it flat, then to learn to land it where you want it, then
slowly...
See, distance is not important.
Let them just get it right, get it right, get the movement right; after that anyway
they will throw it far.
Let them get it and start throwing _____ (Unclear).
