The document summarizes how moods, emotions, and feelings arise from the interaction between the body and brain. Metabolic, endocrine, autonomic, and nervous system activities influence the brain, leading to states like anxiety, tension, elation, and depression. The brain also influences these bodily activities in a feedback loop. While some believe this system is governed by nature, God, or randomness, the document argues that regularly practicing NAMASMARAN (remembrance of the divine name) can reach, liberate, and nurture the seeds of happiness within a person. It encourages giving this practice a fair trial to experience its effects.

1. THE SEEDS OF
HAPPINESS

2. The dynamicity, buoyancy, enthusiasm,
restlessness, motivation; and anxiety,
tension, worry, fear etc also spring from the
combined influence of metabolic, endocrine,
autonomic and central nervous activities on
brain.
The indolence, inertia, indifference,
disinterestedness, lowliness, resentment,
depression, misery and helplessness also
spring from the combined influence of
metabolic, endocrine, autonomic and central
nervous activities on brain.
The elation of success and the depression of
failure also result from the combined
influence of the various activities in body on
brain!
The brain in turn influences all the above
said activities.

3. In other words the ongoing interaction
between the whole body and the brain leads
to the different moods and various actions in
perspective, thoughts, feelings, passions and
body.
But who governs this whole panorama?
Some call it God, some call it nature. Some
say it is random and without any cause or
governance!
But none of the answers can satisfy you.
Because mere intellectual explanations do
not reach the seeds of your being; the seeds
of happiness! But NAMASMARAN reaches,
liberates and nurtures the seeds of your
being and the happiness blossoms! You need
not believe, but rather give it a fair trial!
