Holistic Management

Of

Global Recession

Dr. Shriniwas Kashalikar

The root cause of global recession is, the individualistic and tubular perspective in different fields, which leads to sectarian and mutually antagonistic “development”. This “development” embodies; actually; multiplication and cancerous growth of vested interests, petty pursuits and retrogressive destructive forces in politics, economics, environment etc.

Production and creation of what is conducive to holistic health i.e. global welfare or blossoming together; in the fields of law, health, education, agriculture,

housing etc. is actually conducive to healthy growth ofthe businesses and economic well being of people.

But instead, in present conditions; the production and the capital investment required; revolves around unproductive glamour, wasteful glitter, petty luxuriousness, cheap entertainment and mean achievements; which are glorified! This is followed by the sale of such antihuman products, which is promoted through deceptive and dishonest media hype and aggressive and mutually exploitative (consider the colossal wastage of money, power and human energy in

beauty competitions, promos of cinema and so on) marketing; mostly opposing the business interests of even one another! Hence the industrial growth soon slows down.

Everyone of us; being vulnerable and weak; due to the stupefying influence of totally deceptive glorification of petty and superficial glamour and glitter; gets tempted and driven by the lust for profits! Hence the economy booms for some time due to frantic investments and begins to collapse as the number of consumers keeps reducing to due to sectarian profiteering and deprivation of billions (whose buying power gets

desiccated/atrophied) and the share prices begin to dwindle.

Since the money pumped in these businesses, whether by governments or investors’, is essentially peoples’ money [which would have been potentially be useful for the global development] the common people all over the world suffer maximum, the investors suffer to some extent; because they still have buffering power and the business houses with much greater buffering power; suffer least!

Hence to manage global recession;

1. The students have to be introduced to the measures such as hymns, prayers and NAMASMARAN for their spiritual growth right from the beginning.

2. The productive domain must be nurtured and wasteful learning of unproductive activities must be reduced drastically.

3. The agricultural, horticultural and medicinal herb production must be increased and made profitable.

4. The production of gas, petrol and diesel driven private vehicles must be drastically reduced. The production of number of trains and buses

has to be increased according to the needs.

5. These are broad outlines and directions. The details can be worked out by experts in these different fields; with global perspective. For having global perspective and overcoming sectarian bias; they need to practice measures to grow and blossom from within! For this a mega process of spiritual renaissance is required. For this to happen; practice of NAMSMARAN by billions of people all over the world; is urgently required.

BUT WHAT IS NAMASMARAN?Namasmaran means; remembering the name of God, Guru, great souls; such as prophets and holy objects such as planets and stars. It may be remembered silently, loudly, along

with music, dance, along with breathing, in group or alone, either with counting by rosary (called SMARANI or JAPAMALA) or without counting. The traditions vary from region to region and from religion to religion.

However the universal principle underlying NAMASMARAN is to reorient your physiological being with your true self. In fact while reorienting with true self you aim to establish and strengthen the bond or connection; between; your physiological being; with your true self. You aim at reunification with yourself!

Since remembering your true self is the pinnacle of or culmination of individual consciousness, and individual consciousness is the culmination of every activity in life, remembering any name of God or Guru (any

symbol of your true self) is equivalent to opening the final common pathway for the individual consciousness associated with every possible activity to get funneled into or unified with objective or cosmic consciousness.

Thus NAMASMARAN is in fact the YOGA of YOGA in the sense that it is the culmination of consciousness associated with every possible procedure and technique in the yoga that you are familiar with. It is the YOGA of YOGA because it is the culmination of consciousness associated with all the activities in the universe, which it encompasses as well! It is YOGA of YOGA because everybody in the world irrespective of his/her tradition and the beliefs; would eventually, ultimately and naturally reach it it; in the process of liberation. Even so called non believers also would not “miss” the

“benefit of remembering the true self through one symbol or another”!

Just as NAMASMARAN is YOGA of YOGA it is meditation of meditation also! It is the natural and ultimate climax of every form of meditation.

These facts however have to be realized with persistent practice of NAMSMARAN and not blindly believed or blindly disbelieved with casual approach!

In short NAMSMARAN is super-bounty of cosmic consciousness for every individual to realize it (cosmic consciousness)! This is truly a super-bounty because a person who experiences it, rises above mercenary, commercial and even professional and charity planes and manifest super-

transactions in his or her life!

These are just few observations to give rough idea about what is NAMASMARAN.NAMASMARAN is an ocean of bliss. Its true meaning is beyond description in words and has to b experienced, most preferably, by billions!
