CELL MANAGEMENT: DR SHRINIWAS KASHALIKAR

Insecurity, pain, betrayal, fear, hunger, thirst, sexual desire, anger, lowliness, loneliness, hatred, jealousy, contempt, revengefulness, wants, lassitude, restlessness, cynicism, grief; and such many phenomena; constitute our existence.

They variously cause sadness or happiness; but always a sense of helplessness and incompleteness.

The characteristic of these phenomena; is that they are infectious! We knowingly or unknowingly and willingly or unwillingly; cast their influence on the others and multiply the sense of helplessness and incompleteness.

How to be free from all these?

We hear life management, time management, self management, mind management, stress management, anger management and so on; besides the perennial preaching of conquering the SHADRIPUS viz. kama (uncontrolled desires or urges), krodha (anger, anguish, rage), lobha (petty often insatiable selfish wants), mada (arrogance, pried or deliriousness), moha (being mesmerized or blind in attachment), matsara(being mad; in intractable jealousy); and living a detached life.

But in general; with very few exceptions (like Shri Gondavlekar Maharaj, Gajanan Maharaj, Swami Samarth); for majority of us; all these phenomena; resulting from the metabolic, paracrine, autocrine, endocrine and neurocrine activities in the CELLS; are unavoidable, inseparable and invincible!

The objective omniscient, omnipresent and omnipotent reality (“God” of the theists and “nature” of the atheists) however; has provided us with; the capacity of holistic perspective, policy making, planning and implementation; in all the fields; such as health, education etc. to universalize and enhance NAMASMARAN (jap, jaap, jikra, sumiran, simaran i.e. remembering our true self); which acts as a route as well as a vehicle to reach itself!

Thus; while creating a global ambience conducive to the practice of NAMASMARAN; we automatically begin to experience; the transformation in the metabolic, paracrine, autocrine, endocrine and neurocrine activities in our CELLS; in terms of freedom from the grip of all the phenomena mentioned above! Moreover; we experience the glimpses of true self i.e. the immortal objective reality. Hence; this is CELL MANAGEMENT!
