2. One can question; and rightfully so;
whether it is really possible to get
freedom from stress!
Practically, it is difficult to claim, but
theoretically; one can say that one can
get freedom from stress; if and when
one is in a particular state of mind!
One can also say that this is a
hypothesis!
Just as every particle is connected by
gravity, space, time and so on,
similarly but not in exactly the same
way, every body is connected through
consciousness.
When we are in a lower state of
consciousness, we do not realize this
unifying link! Thus; when we are busy
in most of the activities in life, we

3. suffer from prejudice, bitterness,
hatred, jealousy, contempt and so on;
due to lower level of consciusness.
One can verify this by introspecting;
the pleasures; which are followed by
depression and agony (and vice versa)
due to the lower state of consciousness
associated with them. This is due to
the starvation of conscience!
If we are in remembrance of God or
true self, then we realize the unifying
link ourselves; as well as help others to
rise in consciousness and experience
this link (as the immortal saints are
said to do); or help the others; through
our perspective, thinking, policies,
plans and administration, arts and
other creative efforts!

4. An atmosphere of unity and harmony
is created through remembrance of
God or true self. Even the activities
otherwise restricted to individual
needs; assume nobler dimension by
virtue of the associated consciousness
through NAMASMARAN; and
become benevolent to millions.
This benevolent state of consciousness
irrespective of the occupation, race,
religion, nationality and other
characteristics of an individual; can be
said to be associated with “Freedom
from Stress”!
