DELIGHT OF UNITY: DR SHRINIWAS KASHALIKAR
Many of us are convinced that NAMASMARAN takes us from subjectivity; to objectivity, to the root and seed of universe and to immortality”!
However many of us question about its uniqueness, supremacy; and its insistence and generalization.
Thus; some of us feel that there are many people who do not practice NAMASMARAN; yet serve the universe in different ways e.g. through; scientific and technological research and social service. Some of us feel that; consideration of the merit of other ways of self realization; is also important.
It is true that the creative geniuses in different fields contribute to the universal blossoming without practicing NAMASMARAN. But it is they; who have to express if they reach immortality; like Saint Dnyaneshvar. As far as the merit other ways of self realization is concerned; it is for those who have experienced or are convinced to reach immortality through those ways; can preach them.
For those of us who are convinced about NAMASMARAN and its scope and potential; it is fair to practice NAMASMARAN steadfastly and share the vision, conviction and/or experiences; with others. But this can be best done without being critical about the other ways, about which they have no experience. But suffice it to feel and express; that ultimately all ways converge to universal harmony and eternal reality.

STRESS, YOGA, MANAGEMENT AND NAMASMARAN: DR. SHRINIWAS KASHALIKAR
Due to the dominating influence of regimentalization in the past several centuries; and crudely individualistic and/or socialistic ideologies; in the modern times; the fabric of our life is terribly damaged. Hence; we are indolent, stupid, fanatic and vicious; or turbulent, confused, mercenary and obsessed with petty pursuits!
Hence our study and practice of caricature of yoga; where various techniques are patented; and focus is on personal gains; lead to; self deception, despair and perpetuation of STRESS!
The hype and marketing of the caricature of yoga; is a global menace, that is destructive to whole life and not merely business, trade and management!
The properly conceived yoga; which embodies progress of perspective, intelligence, feelings, instincts and actions; involved in policies, plans, programs and their implementation at individual and global levels; is pivotal in management of the world; including the public, multinational, corporate, and smaller private enterprises; involving individual and global blossoming!
The most powerful and potent means that empowers us; in this; is NAMASMARAN. This can be verified; preferably along with; study of definition, causes, effects, support systems and management (Total Stress Management) of stress.

STRESS AND CEREBRAL ORGASM: DR. SHRINIWAS KASHALIKAR

STRESS AND CEREBRAL ORGASM: DR. SHRINIWAS KASHALIKAR
One of the major causes of universal STRESS; is the perennially disturbing conflict between the inevitable and insatiable sexual urge; and the unavoidable pressure of almost impossible task of inhibiting it!
How to overcome this stress; and culminate this conflict into globally benevolent sublime experience of cerebral orgasm?
The Greek word orgao means excitement or swelling with moisture. The Sanskrit word urja means nourishment sap or vigor. Another Sanskrit word suggestive of potency is OJA.
In sexual orgasm; cerebral cortical, autonomic nervous, visceral, endocrine and the whole body is involved. We can find he details of the physiological and psychological changes during sexual orgasm; in the books of sexology. But what we also find in these books is; even as most of the systems are involved in the phenomenon of orgasm; the focus is on genital and perigenital sensations! Thus apart from the various parts of body such as breasts, areola, nipple etc, are involved in foreplay; the orgasm is restricted to genital and perigenital areas.
It is only with the advent of the development of brain structures such as cerebral cortex and limbic system; that the orgasm per se; has acquired more emotional and poetic dimension. Further; the development of intelligence has given us the ability to understand the importance of sexual intercourse and its importance in heart to heart selfless bond, parental care, continuation of the specie and the fulfillment associated with it.
Our focus of contentment has shifted even in personal and social behavior; in terms of involving emotional fulfillment; through various relationships such as those involved in father-son, mother-son, husband-wife, employee-employer, and teacher-student; rather than mere sexual intercourse!
This has freed us at least to some extent; from ephemeral pleasures; but only intellectually and emotionally; not instinctually and physically! In other words, we are freed psychologically, but not physiologically! This is why there is conflict between sexual abstinence and indulgence!
But we should realize that even as we are not freed from our physical needs and instincts; it should be clear that pleasures arising from sexual orgasm and other instinctual gratifications are important and can lead to cerebral stimulation or excitement; although incompletely and inadequately! This is why; we are partly individualistic and partly generous!
We are left with only one option in such a situation when our consciusness is tardily, incompletely and hence painfully shifting; from genitals to cerebral cortex and limbic system! This option is that of expediting the evolution that is generating perennial conflicts! Is this possible? Yes!
We have simply to open the gates of our soul; through NAMASMARAN; so that all kinds of experiences in life hitherto blocked below subcortical levels; are “sucked”; into cerebral cortex! All the relationships and interactions of life; are thereby quickly evolved and culminated into, sublime and eternal experience of CEREBRAL ORGASM; that is the dawn of individual and global blossoming!

STRESS AND SEEDS OF HAPPINESS: DR. SHRINIWAS KASHALIKAR
Many of us often articulate our STRESS; as;
“I am not able to identify myself amidst own images made and broken.
I am not able to identify you because of your camouflage of urges and cravings.
I am not able to recognize them because of my own observing capacity full of prejudices and presumptions.
I am not able to perceive the light amongst the weirdly moving shadows inside and outside.
I am not able to listen to the music amongst the cacophony inside and outside.
I am not able to even live as myself due to “my” separation from my true self
I am under stress due to increasing chasm between my “self” and me; due to continuous bombardment of petty pains and pleasures
The anxiety, tension, worry, fear, indolence, inertia, indifference, disinterestedness, lowliness, resentment, depression, misery and helplessness also; spring from; the combined metabolic, endocrine, autonomic and central nervous activities.
In other words; the ongoing interactions between the whole body and the brain; and the surroundings; leads to the different moods and various actions in perspective, thoughts, feelings, passions and body.
If we are able to govern these, then we can manage the stress arising out of these! But who governs this whole panorama at present?
Some call it God, some call it nature. Some call it “Self” implying ATMAN. Some say there is no cause or governance! But be that as it may; are we to simply get helplessly dragged after all these interactions and the stress?
No. But mere intellectual explanations; and theoretical discussions, arguments and deliberations and controversies on the intricacies involved in Total Stress Management; without actual experimentation; don’t work.
We have to reach the seeds of our being; the seeds of our happiness! The practice and propagation of NAMASMARAN; however; reaches and nurtures these seeds of our being and the happiness blossoms as follows:
The random dance of the being….
The bubbling frenzy of living…
The vigorous restlessness of moving….
The haunting fragrances…
The tempting tastes….
The mesmerizing melodies….
The reassuring and loving words….
The hilarious jokes and fun…..
The awesome grandeur and glamour...
The stirring and stunning attraction…
The captivating bonds and memories...
The protracted incompleteness ….
The throbbing of heart ….
The inevitable union ….
The fulfillment of caring and rearing...
The queer calls of heart and soul….
The endless drag towards unknown….
The burning motivation for justice
The unending inexplicability…
The exploding turmoil…
The helplessness of impotency….
The vastness of universe ….
The versatility of human genius….
The humility of one’s frailty….
The unifying diversity
The innate yet ubiquitous orchestra…
The harmony of moments ….
All living within us!
If we take the analogy of disturbance in electric supply; for stress; then Total Stress Management is like actually reaching he powerhouse of the electricity and making all rectification there; and not merely discussing the wiring, voltage, changing the bulbs etc.
It is like being a king; and NOT merely discussing and gossiping about the kings, their politics and bravery; or enacting the role of kings in a drama or movie!
We need not believe (or disbelieve) in anything from all of this; blindly or even with open eyes! Instead; it is better to accept provisionally; think over, study and give Total Stress Management (the core of which is NAMASMARAN) a fair trial, if and when we feel (and we abound to feel) the urge!

SIN, STRESS AND SHRADDHA: DR. SHRINIWAS KASHALIKAR

SIN, STRESS AND SHRADDHA: DR. SHRINIWAS KASHALIKAR
Any thing against religious decrees or ethical norms; is referred to as sin (called paap is Sanskrit) and anything illegal is usually called crime. But this is only broad understanding.
The deeper meaning of sin or paap is actually “being oblivious, ignorant, and unaware and disconnected and separated from God or true self (the omniscient, omnipresent, omnipotent and eternally unifying superlife)”.
As we get entwined and entrapped in; and become proud or ashamed of our external or superficial identities; e get separated from our own core and also; from one another. Then we fail to experience the unity and harmony with ourselves; and others. This alienation from ourselves; and from others; leads to increasing individualistic, mean and discordant behavior; that ranges from mere arguments to brutal and indiscriminate violence; and from personal disturbance to global bloodshed.
Hence ignorance, alienation, forgetfulness, obliviousness, disbelief and separation from God is the common sin at the root of all other sins, which cause stress in personal and global life!
All sins including those generated through superstitions are the activities motivated by pettiness (separation from true SELF or God). Thus when we get blinded by our petty need, greed, bias, prejudice, fanaticism, hatred, passion, pettiness, fear, anger, sorrow, shock and so on! They can make us a blind exploiter or a helpless victim, an arrogant criminal or a meek beggar and a fanatic ruler or a slavish follower.
Thus, actions of a petty person whether fuelled by information and technology or superstition; are against the welfare of any common individual and society; because they are motivated by petty selfishness; and lead to many different crimes and stress in individual and global life.
We tend to highlight crimes of illiterates and superstitious people; and ignore or neglect the heinous barbarism and malevolent activities; of people held in high esteem as “well read”, “well informed”, “scientific”, “rational”, “intelligent” and “progressive”; but cut off from the unifying SELF and hence essentially petty and inhuman individuals.
Why is this so?
The cause is separation from God; because of dominance of right cerebral cortex or left; and not full development of both. Hence we see the world erroneously with either preponderance of right cerebral hemisphere (unintelligent sentimentality) or lopsidedly developed left cerebral cortex (dry callous logic).
Shraddha (which is enlightenment associated with full blossoming and complementary functioning of right and left cerebral cortexes); builds up through NAMASMARAN. Shraddha enables us to vividly see and experience the intrinsic unity and harmony in the inmates of the world and empowers us to express holistic policies, plans and programs (solutions) conducive to the individual and universal blossoming; whole heartedly and bravely.
