2. There are many natural divisions and they exist
complementarily. Sun and Moon, Light and Dark, Life
and Death, Fusion and Fission are not contradictory and
not mutually contra posed.
But all the “opposites” in nature; such as male and
female; are natural, or rather celestial poetry and
heavenly songs! They are not opposites or enemies (as
projected by some) to hate or kill each other, but to
synergize, potentiate; and mutually blossom each other.
This understanding and appreciation is the hallmark of
common welfare!
But the unmanageable STRESS of sectarian bigotry and
fanaticism; is produced by the elements creating
arbitrary divisions; and interpreting natural divisions; in
an intellectually lopsided and wrong manner; and with
petty, mean, sectarian and vicious feelings; and often
associated with vested interests.
The arbitrary divisions based on color, region, race,
religion, language, caste, occupation, money, social status
and such trivia are usually irrational, unbalanced,
erroneous and wrong; and/or impregnated and saturated
with petty motives and vested interests. The proponents
of these divisions and discriminations; and their
supporters; amongst us; knowingly or unknowingly work

3. towards the disintegration and deterioration of every
one; including themselves!
The conceptual and intellectual bigotry, darkness of
ignorance, prejudices, grudges, hatred, vengeance,
vindictiveness and malice are so powerful; that all these
individuals and entities are extremely or rather
fanatically committed, united and dedicated. They
exemplify enormous force, courage and conviction; and
are ready to spend any amount of money and suffer to
any extent if required, for achieving their goals. Further;
they are so frantic that they are ready to kill themselves
and kill others irresponsibly, inadvertently, callously,
unethically and indiscriminately.
But those amongst us; who are working towards the
welfare of mankind; seem to lack this force, fervor and
frenzy! They seem to lack the courage of conviction,
unity and dedication to spend even pittance and take
minor most risk! Can NAMASMARAN consolidate,
boost, and empower all of us; to work towards;
blossoming of one and all; so that we can conquer the
STRESS of sectarian bigotry and fanaticism?
We have actually practice NAMASMARAN and verify;
rather than conjecturing or imagining the answer!
