2. Yesterday and today it has been reported in the electronic
media that; in a check up organized by the Jain organization
and rotary club in Beed in Maharashtra; over 50 % police
were detected to be suffering from diabetes, hypertension and
other diseases resulting from stressful working conditions.
We get disturbed by such news and start worrying about and
hastily resort to the typically advertised and hyped solutions;
such as the practice of yoga, change in life style, regular check
up and so on.
But is this effective?
No.
We are bound to suffer from unbearably malignant, global and
inescapable stress and its ill effects; whether we are police or
otherwise; in absence of enlightened wisdom of the leaders on
the one hand; and absence of our own growth so as to
recognize, appreciate, respect and follow such enlightened
wisdom on the other!
To see the truth; we have to rise above; the impulses of
mercenary transaction of encashing hathayoga techniques; or
other tempting but individualistic ways of stress relaxation; on
the one hand; and naivety on the other.

3. The truth is; holistic perspective, holistic policy making,
holistic planning, holistic programs and their holistic
administration are essential for effective and Total Stress
Management. Inner blossoming is possible only if it goes hand
in hand with social transformation and vice versa.
To put it differently; we have to give holistic dimension (of
individual and global blossoming); to the techniques of yoga or
stress management on the one hand; and holistic dimension (of
self realization and inner blossoming) to the process of social
transformation.
It is urgent to verify; if this is possible through the universal
practice of NAMASMARAN, which can enhance and catalyze;
the inner blossoming and global mobilization and motivation;
in evolution and implementation of the universally beneficial
perspective, laws, policies, programs, administration and
functioning!
