STRESS
AND
JUSTICE

Some times we feel that God would do justice and at other times we feel we should do justice.

But in both cases; the feeling is impulsive. The modus operandi is not clear. The mechanism is not clear. The details are not clear. There is an ad hoc, piecemeal and superficial approach and fragmented and ineffective solutions to the problems.

When we practice NAMASMARAN we gradually go deeper within ourselves; and find that we are potentially as sinful or virtuous; as anyone else in the world and the corrective measures for bringing the people to justice; are no different than those urgently required for us.

Hence; if we stop being impatient to be judgmental and bring the others to justice; before trying to heal and rectify priority basis; then our stress would begin to disappear.

In other words; if we practice NAMASMARAN and assert our true self; so as to evolve and share globally beneficial perspective, plans and policies to usher in justice; rather than waiting desperately for God or for the others to do so; we would surely conquer the stress!

This is how through NAMASMARAN we concur with our true self i.e. God in engendering justice in the world. Our beliefs of “imaginary God bringing about justice” can at the most stupefy us in fools’ paradise; and our belief of “our own petty self bringing about justice”; can at the most intoxicate us with sterile excitement.
