STRESS AND HOLISTIC SOLUTIONS -- DR. SHRINIWAS KASHALIKAR
Even as we are fallible; we have freedom to be objective, accurate. Similarly even as; we are incapable to transform a particle into Himalaya and vice versa; and are shackled in a casual, petty, superficial, piecemeal and ad hoc approach; to stress; we still can try to work holistically and overcome stress; by changing our policies as follows:

Thus;
For health problems; our solution is; more hospital buildings, more gadgets and more equipments.

Actually we need a thrust on study, practice and training of Holistic health and Holistic medicine and indigenous arts training in exercise, sports, massage, yoga, pranayama and cultivation of Ayurvedic herbs.

For lack of education; our solution is licensing more institutions and greater use of learning aids and stationary.

Actually we must emphasize on Holistic Education (training in spiritual and productive domains in addition to cognitive, affective and psychomotor domains)

For unemployment and beggars on the road; our solution is paying unemployment allowance; to unemployed people and anti–begging law.

Actually we have to abandon the policies, which destroy the self employment and small scale and home industries and traditional jobs; such as pot making, cane work, circus and others; through excessive production of water coolers, air conditioners, auto rickshaws!

For traffic jam our solution is; construction of flyover bridges.

Actually we need to reinforce the public transport system and curb the production and import of private cars and two wheelers, besides taking adequate measures; to reduce the movement of people from villages to cities.

For suicides of farmers; our solution is subsidy package.

Actually the solution is; to resort to traditional wisdom of agriculture and organic farming; and use; of neem, cow urine, cow dung etc; and making; water and electricity available. The ban on felling of trees, slaughter of animals and unnecessary harmful industries (consuming agricultural water and electricity and producing luxury items such as cold drinks); is essential. Moreover alternating the harvest is also important.

For price rise; our solution is import.

The actual solution is; to ban all deceptive, aggressive and imposing advertisements, which create artificial demands; leading to wasteful and luxurious economic (apparently pleasurable but effectively poisonous) activity in a small section the society; leading to price rise; at the cost of the rest.

For example; the businesses of cold drinks, ice creams, fast foods, bars, restaurants, five star hotels, wines, alcoholic drinks, cosmetics and other luxuries are consuming electricity and water. They are making investment in industries for the production of essential commodities; impossible. Hence the vast majority is deprived of basic needs, besides reduction in employment.

In fact; the policy of production of and “marketing” for few, has to be reversed to production and use for the vast majority.

But this requires massive change in the mindset of masses; through inner development; through NAMASMARAN and holistic approach.

For socioeconomic backwardness; our solution is reservation policy.

Actually we require “earn and learn”, “produce and progress” and “practice and pass”; kind of education. Thus we need holistic education so that the unproductive unemployed and needy population; can be empowered; and made productive, self sufficient and dignified in every way.

For the growing injustice and crimes; our solution is increasing the number of laws and police.

Actually we require simple and honest laws drafted in peoples’ language and understandable to people so as to discipline the people for their growth. We have to remove all the laws, which were created to suppress and exploit the people by the previous alien rulers.
We require policies by which the traditional and ethnic art, sports, cuisine, remedies and skills are NOT ALLOWED to be suppressed by the tactics of the exploitative and individualistic marketing culture e.g. air conditioners, water coolers, private vehicles etc.

For so called “lack of progress”; our solution is more foreign investment.

Actually; we must define progress in terms of holistic health and restructure our policies in every field such as health care, agriculture, industry etc. rather than counting our hollow and diseased glamour and glitter; on the basis of number of private cars and number of mobile phones.

For shortage of electricity; our solution is load shedding.

Actually we have to shift our priorities from wasteful luxurious transactions to the essential “for welfare of all” activities, coupled with development of pollution free, low cost, low investment alternative energy sources.

For road accidents; our solution is speed breakers, increase in traffic signals and police, compulsion of helmets, stringent rules and heavy penalties.

Actually the number of vehicles on the road has to be reduced.

For this; the number of public vehicles has to be increased, the weekly offs have to be different and the working hours also have to be different so that most people do not travel at the same time.

Moreover, the on campus residence has to be insisted as and when feasible. Most importantly, holistic education and rejuvenation of traditional jobs must be ensured so that the helpless and forced movement of people to the cities and the inhuman crowding of cities can be reduced.

For shortage fuel; our solution is sermons to reduce fuel consumption.

Actually the fuel needs can be reduced; if public transport is improved and the bicycles are promoted. More importantly; there has to be a shift of policies from development of airports; to the improvement in public transport and the infrastructure in the villages.
We can cite hundreds of examples to show how we; by NOT going to the roots of the problems; work brilliantly and artistically but in a superficial and petty manner, with individualistic, fragmented, sectarian and divisive perspective, in misguided direction, ineffectively and/or counterproductively; increasing the stress!

These solutions are honest and holistic. But; they can be improved; and many better solutions also; can also be provided; by experts in different fields; if their third eye of cosmic consciousness is opened; through NAMASMARAN.
