The Yogic system does not talk about God. It does not talk about the soul or heaven. Such talk invariably makes people hallucinatory. Yoga talks only about the barriers that you have set up, because this resistance is all that needs to be attended to. The creator is not looking for your attention. The ropes that bind you and the walls that block you- these are one hundred percent of your making. And these are all you need to unknot and dismantle. You have no work with existence. You only have work with the existence that you created. Sadhguru
About This Quote

The idea in this quote is that there is no real need for the human race to worry about what will happen after death or God or heaven or hell. In fact, these concepts don't really apply to the human race. There is no real need to worry about any of this because all of these things are created by the mind and they can be undone by the mind. The only thing a human needs to worry about is to keep their mind from getting entangled in it's own thoughts.
