INDULGENCE

2. The spiritualism is usually associated
with asceticism.
Naturally; those who want to establish
themselves as spiritual leaders; tend to
show that they have no material needs.
Sometimes they are honest but other
times they are dishonest cheats!
Basically the material needs are
physiological. Neither their
uncontrolled indulgence (due to
mediocre literary trends and/or
mercenary hype), nor their forcible
suppression (due to fanatic imposition
of abstinence, austerity, celibacy etc)
are in tune with spiritualism. They are
absurd and impart pathological stress
on the innocent followers and are
irrelevant to spiritual growth!
3. Further; in contrast to the popular
assumption; the austerity can be as
mean, petty, prejudiced and malicious
as the much maligned bewildered
indulgence!
You can overcome these hurdles
(without going into the theoretical and
endless arguments) in your spiritual
progress; through NAMASMARAN
and extract and experience everything
best (the essence or the nectar) at
every stage of your of life! By
practicing NAMASMARAN you
emerge triumphant and get rid of the
pathological craving of indulgence or
psychiatric obsession of suppression
step by step and actually breathe in
and out the sublime cosmic romance
for ever! Moreover you stop becoming
coercive and atrocious in either way to
4. the people around you because of the
inner growth associated with
NAMASMARAN!
