TUKARM CHAITANYA: DR. SHRINIWAS KASHALIKAR

Tukaram Chaitanya is a name given to Tukaram of Yehelgaon (born on Kartiki Ekadashi of shaka 1745 i.e. roughly 1823 AD); by Swami Chinmayananda of Umarkhed. Yehelgaon is about 16 kosas from Nanded (A city in the state of Maharashtra in India)

Tukaram Chaitanya later became the spiritual guru of Brahmachaitanya Maharaj Gondavalekar approximately in 1860. The Samadhi of Tukaram Chaitanya is in Yehelgaon and that Of Chinmayananda is in Umarkhed.

India’s real strength and true identity is hidden in these places and I think it would prove extremely beneficial for people of world to visit these places; at least in holidays.

CULTURE AND VULTURE
Do we need to reassess the merits and demerits of drainage system, rapid and controlled urbanization and disposal of dead bodies? Are the prevalent cultural practices responsible for the extinction of the natural scavengers viz. the vultures? Can this be harmful to life cycle and hence the life?

DEPRESSION
Today the menace of depression is going beyond the purview and capacity of specialists, one of whom committed suicide!

Mass and massive depression due to the deprivation of food, shelter, clothes, friends and dignity; is generally ignored, neglected or taken as normal! But depression results not only from such poverty but from failures; and not only from failures; but also from "so called succeses devoid of satisfaction to conscience"!

Can we not verify if NAMASMARAN (the core of TOTAL STRESS MANAGEMENT)can empower us to satisfy our conscience and conquer depression at individual and global levels?

STRESS, REPO AND REVERSE REPO

Increase in repo and reverse repo rates is aimed at reducing inflation and catalyzing growth.

Can inflation come down by reducing relatively very small white money availabile to us, when several times more black money is available for causing inflation? Can this not make us even miserable?

Can industrial growth be catalyzed by mere increase in deposits in the reserve bank; and trying to increase prodction of unnecessary and unaffordable (to majority of us)products and unproductive wasteful marketing gimmicks?

Are we not heading towards recession and depression?
