NAMASMARAN does not involve any kind of belief. It is a practice of negation of pettiness, subjectivity and superficiality. No science or religion can testify or endorse; whether NAMASMARAN can give the realization of immortality; as stated by Saint Jnaneshvar. Its practice is a matter of NOT DIKTAT, but a revelation, choice and golden opportunity.

2. Many people quote Dr. Jayant Naralikar, Jawaharlal Nehru and
our constitution and
1. Advocate scientific temper.
2. Point towards the uselessness or harmfulness of DIKTAT
3. Indicate the experimental findings of statistical insignificance of
utility of NAMASMARAN in healing;
and
4. Indicate the reduced rate of crimes in atheist societies.
5. Express skepticism about NAMASMARAN
Following is a brief explanation to the misconception that
NAMASMARAN is an unscientific and religious matter and
involves (blind) belief in God.
Saint Jnaneshvar (whom I don't want to compare with Dr. Jayant
Naralikar and Jawaharlal Nehru or the constitution makers)
refers to NAMASMARAN in the ovis 200 to 205 in the ninth
chapter of Jnaneshvari. Apart from this most of the saints,
including Kabir and Gondavlekar Maharaj; have described the
merit of NAMASMARAN; based on their experience; in their

3. works. As regards the effect of NAMASMARAN on healing or
other material gains are concerned; the practice of
NAMASMARAN does not involve any assurance of any tangible
or material gains. As regards the relationship of crime and
atheism; it is enough to state that; NAMASMARAN does not
involve any kind of belief. It is a practice of negation of pettiness,
subjectivity and superficiality. No science or religion can testify or
endorse; whether NAMASMARAN can give the realization of
immortality; as stated by Saint Jnaneshvar. Its practice is a
matter of NOT DIKTAT, but a revelation, choice and golden
opportunity. But, all such frank questions and/or arguments are
most welcome. More explanation/discussion about this; can be
found; in articles and books; for free download; by google
searching "Dr. Kashalikar".
