Human beings, irrespective of their colors, creeds and nationalities and religions, need to be reminded that they are the sons and daughters of Adam and the Eve. The “Flood of Noah” had dispersed and relocated them in different geo-environmental zones which influenced their appearances, their languages, their life styles and ultimately their beliefs and their faiths too. I do not find myself prepared for a minute to believe that the Muslims, the Jews, the Christians, the Hindus and the Buddhists are justified in behaving like enemies of each other only because they practice different religions. Religions are nothing but different sets of Divine Manuals regarding an individual’s “conduct of day-to-day business of life” influencing every aspect of human behavior in this world. Does the God, who has created this universe and whatever is in it, depend on His own creation to impose His will in the name of religion on mankind, by force? He has all the power in the universe to do that Himself. But He did not opt for that. His last message Quran, through his last messenger Muhammad (PBUH) categorically and strictly prohibits that. Islam is a religion that truly and literally means PEACE. Muslims are allowed to go to war with a set of exemplary precautionary instructions only when war is extremely necessary and unavoidable to maintain and create a genuine environment of peace. If this is true and it is true then why are the Muslims treated like enemies of the non-Muslims and the Muslims treat the non-Muslims as their enemies? Why they are suspicious of the intentions of each other? It is ironic that a “Cruel Inhuman System of Exploitation” has been imposed on the people of the Muslim countries internally by a “Group of Exploiters” in the name of secularism, moderation, toleration and “Unregulated Free Economy” with the blessings of their “External Supporters” who are obviously justified in doing so in the strategic interest of their respective countries. Majority of the people in the Muslim countries are helpless and the only weapon available to them is frustration visibly dominated by hatred for their rulers, politicians, bureaucrats, businessmen, army generals and the foreign heads of states and the governments who support them. The most genuine embarrassing question, therefore, is how to put an end to this exploitation and consequently the frustration and hatred which is an obvious outcome of the realities on ground?
NAMA is a word used to indicate true self; inseparable from the unifying universal self. Hence forgetting our self or being oblivious to our self can be referred to as NAMAVISMARAN [NAMA (self); VISMARAN (forgetting)].
As we “forget” our true self (NAMAVISMARAN), i.e. undergo a “descent” into our caricatures, we begin to live as our caricatures. We then get segregated into races, philosophies, ideologies, religions, cultures, nations, regions, families and individuals! Latter we descend further by the downward momentum of individualization and into pettier and meaner life!

Does NAMASMARN require any specific conditions?
Does it require money?
Does it require any specific binding, compulsions, conditions etc?
Is it promoted and marketed on TV channels?
Are there any false claims about NAMASMARAN?
Is NAMASMARAN sold by franchise; as is the case with many types of meditation?

2. True internationalism is not against the
welfare of a nation, a region, a race, a
religion, a culture, a district, a city, a
town or a village or even an individual!
Global welfare in true sense is not against
the welfare of any of its parts and
especially an individual!
The upsurges of idiosyncratic frenzies
with respect to caste, creed, race,
language, region, religion, nation and
culture are born out of petty, disruptive
and mutually destructive pursuits. They
breed indiscriminate and barbaric
violence. And keep on disrupting the
global fabric of human civilization. This
happens everywhere in different forms.
3. NAMASMARAN can bring about the
much needed spiritual renaissance and
global harmony and unity. One can verify
this.
