STRESS PROMOTION -- DR. SHRINIWAS KASHALIKAR
Some days we feel overtly stressed! We feel low. We feel helpless.

Given that the other things are fine, what is the reason for this?

If we stop for a while and look into ourselves to find out where exactly this lowliness has crept in our mind from; then often we can trace its source in the comments by family members, neighbors, friends, colleagues, newspapers etc. but most frequently in the contents of advertisements.

With the mind boggling mixing frames, captivating photographic tricks, stupefying music, mesmerizing glamour, thrilling stunts, tempting information, loud and aggressively coaxing message coated in enticing body exposure; the advertisements have an impressive audiovisual impact.

What is the impact? How does it cause the stress of lowliness?

The impact is; “We are deficient, pitiable and miserable, backward, stupid, imperfect, inadequate, impotent, unsatisfied, unhappy, low, unsuccessful, and at high risk; without the product or service; promoted in the advertisement”.

Thus knowingly or unknowingly; we start craving for ‘success toys’, ‘success chocolates’, ‘champion biscuits’, ‘style statement cold drinks’, ‘success foods’, ‘macho underwear’, ‘glamour/beauty soap’, ‘romantic toothpastes’ and so on! We begin to knowingly or unknowingly feel lowly, deprived and hence stressed!

If we buy some of these we are sickeningly proud and arrogant. If we cannot, then we are sickeningly meek and pitiable. In any case we suffer perennially and transmit it; to our family, friends and others.

This stress is further compounded by misinformation about ghee, coconut oil, un-iodized salt, Bengal gram and many other naturally occurring products and germs, apart from many other products and services.

This is the modern form of what has been referred to as MAYA for millennia! Hence no one escapes the stress; not even the STRESS PROMOTERS themselves!

Hence; ideally; there ought to be implementation of holistic perspective, policies, plans and programs; at all the levels and situations; to rectify this STRESS PROMOTION. But at our own levels we can immunize and detoxify ourselves from such stress; with the most effective vaccine and antidote; the practice and promotion of NAMASMARAN!
