What are we? Dr. Shriniwas Kashalikar
In general:
We the political leaders usually represent the unsatisfied instincts (fear, insecurity, needs).
We the economic leaders represent the unsatisfied ambition for money!
We the leaders in the field of art represent the unsatisfied passions and feelings such as suffering, pains and the urge of romance!
We the social leaders represent unsatisfied urge for egalitarian reforms.
We the academic leaders represent the unsatisfied intellectual pursuits!
But true leaders are those who represent the innate unsatisfied urge of Self realization. True religion, true spiritualism, true nonviolence, true secularism, and true progress are present only in an exalted state of such true leaders.
We preach and hype the words; “religion”, “spiritualism”, “nonviolence”, “secularism”, “progress” etc; and practice varying degrees of violence in physical, instinctual, emotional and intellectual behavior; and in economic, industrial, educational, agricultural such other policies, plans, programs and their implementation.
It is high time we follow the true leaders (whom we are neglecting, humiliating or exploiting for petty gains), by virtue of whom India is, was, and will continue to be a true world leader! All such true leaders advocate the practice and globalization of NAMASMARAN (JAP, JAAP, JIKRA, SUMIRAN, SIMARAN i.e. remembrance of God or reorientation to true Self)!

Doctor: Some of the reasons for not noticing stress are as follows.
1. Stress usually being a slow process, acts like a slow poisoning and hence goes on unnoticed until it acquires serious dimensions.
2. Many of us suffer from stress and attribute the effects of stress to more apparent things such as infection (which itself can result due to stress!). You can understand this if you appreciate the fact that we “see” the dust particles moving in a dust storm but we do not “see” the force of wind, which actually is the cause of the movement of the particles! The STRESS is like this unseen, enemy! Therefore it gets ignored.
3. The word STRESS, is used by any body and every body, without understanding, its meaning. This is similar to the usage of words such as democracy, socialism, secularism etc. This gives us a wrong impression that we know everything about it. As a result most of us develop a false notion that we can manage it without anybody’s help. This is in fact one of the greatest illusions, or one of the greatest myths of all times.
4. Most of us are habituated to put up a brave face even when we are suffering! Many times, this is because of shyness, feeling of shame and so on.
5. We try to hide our sufferings i.e. stress because of the fear that we may be insulted, humiliated, ridiculed, pitied, sympathized or even exploited.
6. Other reasons are more obvious; such as illiteracy, poverty, lack of time, lack of information, lack of dialogue, lack of communication, lack of curiosity, apathy and so on (which are actually due to stress)
Patient: Why don't we learn all this in schools and colleges? I would like to know more!
Doctor: Sure! We will go to the root of stress and its management!

TOTAL STRESS MANAGEMENT AND NAMASMARAN (JAP, JAAP, JIKRA, SUMIRAN, SIMARAN; i.e. remembering God or true SELF) 09: DR SHRINIWAS KASHALIKAR
Patient: Sir! I have reasonably understood the nature of stress! I have also somewhat understood the role of Total Stress Management! Actually how many of us suffer from STRESS?
Doctor: Every one of us suffers from stress.
Patient: All of us?
Doctor: Yes! Life in every living being; is an extension of cosmic consciousness or cosmic life! This consciousness is intricately associated or rather trapped in the properties of physical matter! Physical matter (neurotransmitters, hormones, enzymes and other molecules and the interactions amongst them) has the property of entropy (atrophy, degeneration, degradation, disruption, deterioration and destruction).
Patient: Sir! You mean to say; this entropy is the cause of STRESS?
Doctor: Not merely the entropy as such! The life in us has tendency to merge with the cosmic consciousness on the one hand and tendency to get trapped in the property of the matter on the other! Thus we are actually caught between the upward (URDHVAGAMI) force that tends to unify us with our true self; and the downward (ADHOGAMI) force that LOCKS us in the influence of matter ( petty and subjective perspective, thinking, feeling and instincts).
Patient: Sir! Does this tussle between the upward and downward forces constitutes stress?
Doctor: Yes! Precisely! However some people do not believe that our individual life is an extension of the unifying cosmic consciousness! They believe that life has emerged from non-life!
Patient: Why don't they believe?
Doctor: They don't seem to see or experience; the glimpses of the source of everything and every being i.e. true SELF i.e. the immortal cosmic consciousness!
Patient: Sir, this is fine! But I am still not understanding the role of NAMASMARAN! Please explain further
Doctor: NAMASMARAN is a process of remembering NAMA i.e. the immortal cosmic consciousness i.e. God, Brahma or true SELF! This remembrance enhances the upward force and nullifies the downward force (born out of influence of matter) slowly but steadily!
Patient: It means; the animals would have stress, but won't be able to practice NAMASMARAN and enhance upward (URDHVAGAMI) forces and hence won't be able to manage stress! Is it true?
Doctor: You are absolutely right! But it is documented that; in the company of those, who have transcended the matter; even the animals get benefited!
Patient: How does this aid in Total Stress Management?
Doctor: As the upward (URDHVAGAMI) force supersedes the pettiness born out of the influence of matter, our perspective, thinking, feelings and instincts blossom! Our policies, plans, programs and their implementation; become more and more unprejudiced, objective, accurate and globally benevolent! Such blossoming in individual and universe; is DHARMA!
Patient: Sir! This is wonderful! Now i am beginning to understand; how NAMASMARAN is crucial to Total Stress Management!
Doctor: I will explain it further as we begin to study the stress and its management in greater details and depth!

Patient: Can a child practice NAMASMARAN?
Doctor: Life is like a river. Stress is like a disturbed river or a whirlpool! NAMASMARAN is a process of reestablishing the river to its calm flow! Hence; it is better to start as early in life as possible.
Patient: But won't they get bored?
Doctor: They would! Therefore NAMASMARAN has to be started in small "dose"!
Patient: Would this act as preventive measure!?
Doctor: Yes! NAMASMARAN is like alum! It enhances the settling of muddy particles to bottom!
Patient: I see!
Doctor: NAMASMARAN is like systematizing the electrical wiring so that bulbs of our life; emanate light according to our potentials; in literary as well as actual sense(voltage)! It is like a proper functioning of signals! It makes the traffic smooth!
Patient: Can we compare stress with TRAFFIC JAM?
Doctor: This is not an exact analogy but helps in understanding STRESS, clearly, which in itself; significantly "rectifies the signals" and reduces STRESS!
Comparison of STRESS with TRAFFIC JAM!
1. The STRESSORS are like excess number of VEHICLES coming from all directions.
2. The individual under stress is like a square where the signals or the traffic police are not working.
3. The signs and symptoms of stress are like the excess crowding, anxiety due to inability to reach destinations, quarrels amongst the drivers, excessive blowing of horns, chemical pollution etc.
4. The pathology is inability of the vehicles to move and reach their destinations.
5. The Relaxation Techniques prevalent today are like arbitrary and isolated efforts to calm down the drivers and prohibit the blowing of horns.
6. The relaxation techniques therefore can bring about temporary peace (temporary symptomatic relief) but cannot help the vehicles to reach their destinations (cannot effectively remove the pathological changes and handle the stressors effectively).
7. NAMASMARAN (and consequent Total Stress Management); is like re-establishing the functioning of the signals and re-instituting the traffic police (perception) so that the crowding, jam (homeostatic disturbances or affect), blowing of horns, quarrels (symptoms and signs ) and the reaching of the destinations ( handling the stressors and rectify the pathological changes ), all are made possible.

TOTAL STRESS MANAGEMENT AND NAMASMARAN (JAP, JAAP, JIKRA, SUMIRAN, SIMARAN; i.e. remembering God or true SELF) 07: DR SHRINIWAS KASHALIKAR
Patient: Can the causes of stress be completely eradicated?
Doctor: Beginning NAMASMARAN (Total Stress Management) is like coming on right track to progress appropriately! But stress CAN BE MANAGED; NOT eradicated!
Patient: Are the STRESSORS always dangerous?
Doctor: No. The environment neither remains unchanged nor does it change within a given restricted range. So the living beings are equipped to overcome (and even get benefited from) STRESSORS!
This is why; physical exercise, emotional excitement, intellectual work etc. are often beneficial when moderate. Sometimes this beneficial stress is referred to as “eustress”. EU is used as a prefix, meaning good or well.
Patient: When do the STRESSORS become dangerous?
Doctor: When the stressors increase in number, frequency, duration, intensity or complexity, the internal environment undergoes greater change (distress) with greater variations and with greater speed! This results in adverse effects on body cells, with or without clinical signs and symptoms!
Patient: Can we call the ill effects of STRESS; PRRABDHA?
Doctor: When we seem to understand (although superficially) the causes; we term it pathophysiology of stress! When we fail to understand the root causes; we term it PRARABDHA!
Patient: What does NAMASMARAN do?
Doctor: NAMASMARAN empowers us to see, feel and act appropriately! It wakes us up to NEW AWAKENING!
Patient: I think I will begin the practice of NAMASMARAN; till I learn further about the process of blossoming with NAMASMARAN!
Doctor: Yes! We have to learn a lot! Stress is like a tornado! But Gurukrupa enriches us with NAMASMARAN and empowers us to ride over it!
