TWO
POINTS

First point is: In spiritualism we often hear people
preaching that you have to forget yourself in
memory of God.
Prima facie this appears to be a horrible idea of
complete amnesia or dementia.
The first reaction to such preaching is aversion
towards spiritualism. In fact if you are honest and
realistic, about genuine personal and social issues,
then you develop loathe and disgust about
spiritualism.
Those who preach this obviously do not seem to
have forgotten themselves or even their petty
interests, in memory of God.
Actually; forgetting yourself in memory of God
means; being able to get freed from the nagging and
harrowing shackles of individualistic or subjective
ideas and feelings. NAMASMARAN helps you to
gradually get freed from the harassing and

obsessive reminders of your own subjective ideas
and feelings.
Second point: In spiritualism it is often insisted to
the extent of coaxing that you have to give up
everything and renounce all the relationships and
excepting the one with God.
This also is obviously shocking and repulsive as it
induces hatred about all sublime and adorable
relationships.
What it actually means is; you acquire the capacity
to see every relationship more objectively in the
course of time; due to being focused on God i.e.
beyond petty self through the practice of
NAMASMARAN. As a result; your emotional
bonds in all relationships evolve and become
mature, subtler and refined.
It is important to understand that of subjective ideas
and feelings (memory of petty self) and subjective
perceptions about the relatives, friends etc

(relationships) should get evolved as a result and
NAMASMARAN.
Arbitrarily trying to “forget yourself” or “cut off
relations” can be harmful for a common person like
me.
One can think over and decide whether to practice
or not NAMSMARAN.
