2. World politics is; or rather ought to be; the
expression of cosmic consciousness by people
with the perspective of individual and global
blossoming. Thus people of such perception and
conviction, when identify, appreciate, come
together and interact; the pragmatic aspects of
actual means and modalities of actions can be
crystallized.
At present also this is happening, but in a rather
imperfect, immature, inaccurate, insufficient,
inadequate and ineffective manner. Primarily,
this imperfection is that of perspective,
conceptualization, conviction and actual
experience or realization.
The millions of different needs, wants, likes,
dislikes, virtues, vices, actions, interactions,
contradictions, dialogues, hopes and despairs of
billions of living beings of different ages with
different geographical, political, social,
economic, cultural and historical backgrounds
have a tendency for individual and global

3. blossoming in common! This is either voluntary
or involuntary and conscious or subconscious!
The visible hallmarks of this individual and
global blossoming are (though in formative or
developing stage, such as millions of people
being served food free of cost and millions of
cows being cared as by Gondavle Sansthan,
ISCKON and many other institutions, tress
being planted by ISHA, millions of people being
trained in yoga by Swami Ramdev and
Patanjali Yogapeeth pariwar, Promotion and
cultivation of herbal plants by Ahcarya
Balkrishna, millions of people being trained in
Sudarshan Kriya by Sri Sri Ravishankar and
Art of Living pariwar, millions of people getting
holistic medical treatment by practitioners in
the world, some attempts towards international
institutions for justice in political, legal,
economic, agricultural and health care areas,
exchange of scientific technology etc), or would
be,

4.  Universal Practice of NAMASMARAN i.e.
remembering one’s true self (about whom we
are usually oblivious), right from childhood,
according to the particular tradition.
 Availability, upholding and promotion of safe
drinking water and vegetarian food would be
ensured by all governments.
 Redefining the holistic health as “Optimal
intellectual, emotional, instinctual and
physical actions to promote individual and
global blossoming, in one’s field”.
 Practice and promotion of Holistic Medicine;
i.e. the art, science and skills of employing
everything effective; in regaining and
promoting HOLISTIC HEALTH, would be the
essential and inseparable core of mainstream
Medical Education, Teaching, Practice and
Research.
 Holistic Education with emphasis on
productive domain in addition to affective,
cognitive, psychomotor domains, with
prayerful empowerment, practical productive
progress and self sufficiency; and research and

5. teaching in different fields conducive to holistic
health. Even the specialized institutions would
not be exception to “earn and learn”, “produce
and progress”, “practice and pass” principles.
The written examinations would be replaced
by actual assessment of the skills.
 All religious temples and places of worship
would voluntarily incorporate educational,
industrial, and agricultural and research
activities conducive to holistic health; thereby
get re-integrated with mainstream life.
Conversely, all educational and industrial
houses would adopt the activities of religious
and spiritual bodies and institutions; in which,
the philosophy of holistic health is implicit
(though variable in terms of semantics i.e.
languages and terms).
 Getting up early, drinking of water in
morning, rubbing the teeth, gums and palate in
morning and using herbs conducive to dental,
oral and general health, would be promoted as
essential elements of holistic health.

6.  By hearting of hymns and prayers of different
religions, would be practiced and sung together
amongst all religions.
 Laws would be devoid of vindictiveness and
conducive to holistic health. The worst possible
criminals also would not be treated with
vengeance. In general, the laws would be
formative, e.g. the persons soiling the public
property would me made to clean the same, a
corrupt person would be made to work double
the duty hours, in say, half the salary and those
involved in misleading or deceptive
commercials such as (98% stoppage of hair
fall, double increase in height) would be made
to participate in production, research, training
and practice of holistic health and medicine, at
no profit. The production of bicycles and
vehicles of mass transport being echo-friendly
would have minimum or no tax.
 Sanskrit would be researched and taught all
over the world if after careful scrutiny of
international well meaning intellectuals

7. belonging to different religions; and found
beneficial to mankind.
 The unifying elements and enlightenment in
the lives of saints, seers and other reformers
would be integral part of the curriculums.
 The doctrines of bigotry, fanaticism, Zionism,
racism, wars and hatred would occupy
minimum or if possible actually NO space in
curriculum.
 There would be introspective research and
dialogue over; whether the culture of
slaughtering the cows and bullocks (and other
animals) is an evolved and civilized act
beneficial to mankind or it is preferable to love,
care, adopt and coexist with animals. There
would be extensive and conclusive debate,
evolution of globally beneficial policies, laws,
rules and their implementation in this regard;
world over. This may happen simultaneously
with a global convincing operation.
 There would be encouragement to folk sports
as for the folk arts and folk music.

8.  The defense policies would gradually become
less barbaric, less cruel, less vicious, less
prejudiced, less suspicious, less obstinate and
more reconciliatory. This would be coupled
with promotion of global perspective with
liberal and considerate attitude.
