1) Corruption exists not just in financial scandals but in one's perspectives, thoughts, feelings and actions which influence each other and the environment in a continuous cycle. 2) A restricted consciousness leads to a narrow and sectarian perspective, from which corrupt thinking and emotions germinate, manifesting as corrupt actions and systems that lack concern for overall welfare. 3) Performing Namasmaran, or remembrance of the divine, is proposed to rectify corruption by regenerating a global perspective and consciousness from the roots upwards, in a manner that is non-invasive, non-traumatic, and acceptable to all beliefs.

1. CORRUPT PERSPECTIVE, THINKING & FEELINGS & ACTIONS
The word corruption is used so extensively and in so many contexts that
it’s meaning has become obscure! Hence corruption is usually and wrongly
equated with mere financial scams, bribing, kick backs etc.
Actually the corruption is as ubiquitous as life and the consciousness! The
degree of degradation (influenced by the surroundings and influencing the
surroundings as well) in one’s own eyes; either consciously or
subconsciously and knowingly or unknowingly; determines the degree of
corruption (one’s perspective, thoughts, feelings and actions)! The
environment and this corruption further interact and influence each other
continuously. The corruption of the leaders in different fields in the world
and that of the followers; also influence each other. Thus the corruption of
the political, religious, intellectual, industrial and other leaders in world can
influence the corruption of an individual in any and every part of the world.
Perspective is like the space of consciousness! If the “space” of
consciousness is normal, then perspective is universal or normal! The
degree of restriction of that space of consciousness determines the degree
of the suffocation and throttling of consciousness and perspective also! The
degree of this suffocation and throttling corrupts perspective
proportionately.
Thus as the space of consciousness goes on getting restricted and
perspective goes getting deteriorated, you start getting separated from
nature, world, countries, religions, regions, provinces, sects, linguistic
groups, castes, communities, creeds, sects and even your own family!
The disease of corrupted perspective is subtle and hence not easily noticed.
Since the medial systems today have not learnt to diagnose and treat the
disease viz. “corruption of perspective”; they do not identify and treat this
disease, which often inflicts the medical systems themselves!
Sectarian and corrupt perspective makes your thoughts, feelings and actions
also increasingly mean, lonely, weak, inert, grumbling, intolerant,
inconsiderate, resentful, vindictive and miserably selfish and pathogenic
(many times concealed under deceptive glamour and glitter) for yourself
and the society!
For example; the paradigms or premises of the sectarian supremacy, racial
superiority, financial expansionism, religious imposition and so on (without

2. concern for the wellbeing of the entire world) constitutes corruption of
perspective.
What is corrupt thinking?
The holistic perspective or normal perspective as gets corrupted (diseased
and degenerated) gradually becomes increasingly NARROW, sick and
sectarian.
From this sick and sectarian soil of corrupt perspective, the sick and
sectarian; corrupt thinking germinates! Everything holistic gets degenerated
into everything sick and sectarian!
The rationale behind the international and national laws, conventions,
traditions, rules, pacts, in tune with the above perspective; to a greater or
lesser extent (without concern for wellbeing of the entire world) constitute
the corruption in thoughts.
The racially discriminating constitutions, the legal discrimination on the
basis of castes, legal yet unjust tax system/s to exploit certain section for
the benefit of another section, the repressive laws against trade, shops and
such commercial activities, the legalized destructive promotion of alcohol,
the various laws and rules with respect to special economic zones and so on
are examples of “corrupt thinking”! The present sectarian medical and
education systems (conspicuously lacking integration and productive
domain respectively) are glaring examples of corrupt thinking.
The so called corruption (embodying mere financial scams, bribing and
even other corrupt activities) is actually crude symptom of the deeper
disease viz. corrupt thinking, which in turn is the crude symptom of deeper
disease viz. corrupt perspective!
What are corrupt emotions?
The motivation behind the literature, art, media, movies, dramas,
advertisements and so on (serving the sectarian aims, petty objectives, and
vested interests ingrained in the above intellectual themes; without concern
for the welfare of people at large or even at the cost of the welfare of
people at large) constitute the corruption of emotions and instincts.
What are corrupt actions?

3. The actual laws, literature, art forms, media campaigns, movements, and
such every activity in different fields either organized or unorganized
(without concern for the welfare of the world or at the cost of the welfare of
the world) constitute the corruption in actions.
Considering the extent of corruption from the brief discussion above, it
should be clear how corruption is really ubiquitous i.e. not only outside but
within me as well!!
The roots of the corruption thrive from the faulty perspective from which
the corrupt thoughts, emotions and actions spring.
Hence to rectify corruption; mere physical actions, emotional hue and cry
and intellectual jargons (even though they may constitute an inevitable
phase in the groping crusade against corruption) unknowingly ignore the
roots of corruption and hence are not enough. They can not effectively
blossom the global perspective and global conscience.
For this i.e. to rectify, repair, restore, regenerate, rejuvenate and effectively
blossom the ROOTS of global perspective and global conscience the
answer is NAMASMARAN. It is said that NAMSMARAN breaks open the
throttling shackles, which restrict the space of your consciousness and
thereby effectively treats the corruption of your perspective, corrupt
thinking and corrupt feelings and actions
This universal solution NAMSMARAN (which encompasses all visible and
invisible contingents) if practiced universally; is said to rectify, repair,
restore, regenerate, rejuvenate and effectively blossom the ROOTS of
global perspective and global conscience and cure the subsequent fallouts
of ubiquitous corruption thinking, feelings and actions; right from its roots.
This point of view however, like any other view point needs verification on
a massive scale. As the “experiment” does not involve invasive techniques,
is absolutely non traumatic, is totally nontoxic, and is completely non-
expensive and does not poke or interfere with any belief system, it should
be acceptable to everyone, belonging to all beliefs and non-beliefs!
