STRESS AND SHRI SHAILAM --DR. SHRINIWAS KASHALIKAR
When we are trained in mere rote, mechanistic, reductionist and lopsided logical thinking and learning; without evolving internally; then we fail to appreciate the importance of the activity, places and phenomenon of pilgrimage.

We hate, ridicule, humiliate or at best tolerate or consider the pilgrimage sympathetically. Sometimes by virtue of our socio-economic perspective; we offer trivial explanations which undermine the sublime and pivotal role of pilgrimage.

Once some one asked a sage; “What is the meaning of DHARMA?”

The sage replied; “Whatever elevates (evolves) you is DHARMA”!

The places of pilgrimage are the conduits to self realization. These are the places wherefrom we collect the vitality and vigor to ascend to our true SELF.

Hence pilgrimage has to be given maximum importance in terms of making them easily accessible, improving the transport facilities, making their historical and spiritual importance known to the visitors, and maintaining and promoting their cleanliness, habitability and sanctity.

Pilgrimages are centers of civilization and must be treated as such.

Let us understand that pilgrimages are pivotal to our holistic health, total stress management, simultaneous blossoming of one and all; and not meant for expecting mere trivial gains.
