STRESS, NAMASMARAN AND CONSCIENCE: DR. SHRINIWAS KASHALIKAR

It is true that the technology has made life much easier for billions (though several billions have no access to it). There improvement in transport, communication, productivity, physical fitness and subsequent improvement in management, administration and physical efficiency.

However; this improvement is largely engaged; in wasteful gratification of our basal instincts, individualistic whims, personal fancies, petty pursuits, and trivial gains; with little or no attention towards our conscience and our innate core! As a result; we are divided, lonelier, listless and dry. We have lost the urge to unite, innocence to be spontaneous and potency to conquer the adversities. We have lost sensitivity to empathize, vigor to help; and thus have become; caricatures of ourselves! We have lost faith in ourselves. In fact; we are drained of the very ambrosia of life! Our conscience and innate core are moribund!

What is the solution?

The age old answer to this question is; to practice and universalize; the ancient emancipating activity; NAMASMARAN (jap, jaap, jikra, sumiran, simaran i.e. remembering our true self); and verify its power in redirecting the vast knowledge and technology; to serve and rejuvenate our conscience and revitalize our unifying innate core.
