Déjà vu is like finding a duplicate sticker in your collection. It feels like you have lived this moment before, but it is just your brain playing a little trick.
How the Brain Remembers
Imagine your brain is like a busy library. Usually, when you see something, your brain makes a fresh book and puts it on the shelf. Sometimes, the librarian is slow or tired. Instead of making a new book, they accidentally pull out an old one. This makes you feel like you are reading the same story twice.
Sadhguru says this happens because our minds are like a video camera. Normally, the camera records new pictures. But sometimes, the camera gets stuck on an old frame. You see the same scene twice because the brain forgot to change the tape. It is not spooky. It is just a small glitch in how we store memories.
| Cause | What it feels like |
|---|---|
| Slow processing | Feeling like time is looping |
| Memory overlap | Seeing a familiar face in a new place |
Think of walking into a room and feeling like you walked in yesterday. That is déjà vu. Your brain mixed up "now" with "then."
It is like hearing a song on the radio twice in one day.
So next time it happens, smile. Your brain is just double-checking its filing system.
