The document discusses the pervasive nature of stress in human life and its detrimental effects, arguing that stress is a natural but intense byproduct of modern living. It presents a philosophical perspective rooted in Indian traditions, emphasizing the duality of mortality and immortality and the importance of connecting with intangible, eternal elements of existence for true well-being. Ultimately, it advocates for a cognitive acceptance of life’s ephemerality as a pathway to lasting joy and wellness, particularly relevant during the celebration of Holi.

1. LASTING Solution To Kill STRESS
HOLI SPECIAL: Let Us ‘Color’ Our Consciousnesses
With THIS Lasting Hue And Shade…!
In what seems like a cosmic construct of futilities and frustration in macrocosmic
proportions, finding and then installing utilities and joyfulness of even microcosmic
measure seems like the most difficult enterprise for average human…!

2. The hypothesis, though never accepted by humanity has grown stronger in time journey
that human life is essentially a long journey of travails and pains, with happiness
occasionally appearing as small roadside tavern after long stretches…
Also, the secondary hypothesis that humanity’s march to civilization and culture has been a
success story of winning over harsh nature to install loads of amenities and conveniences
yet, the reverse evolution towards disorders, disenchantments, dystrophy and distresses…
In modern humanity, where 1% people own and monopolize 99% of incomes and wealth,
globally, if humanity could trace one single element, that has somehow equitable and
abundant distribution across geography, cultures and demography, that definitively stands
out as STRESS…! In contemporary time-space of human march towards excellence and
wellness, everyone seems to have only one singular thing as equally enough is STRESS…!
No need to go into stress-map of the globe and furnish global stress-data as it is now talk of
the town and it is too evident like death… The need however is to talk about some
evolution process that takes humanity to that exalted position of stress-free happy and
beautiful life, as it should, for everyone – Rich or Poor, men and women, East or West…!
As we gear up to celebrate the festival of happiness, the season of colors and joviality, it
probably is right time to talk about stress-free life and living. However, before we talk
about freedom from stress for lasting gaiety and larger utilities of life-living, we surely need
to accept a reality, which most of us are happy to negate and run away from. This is
important –
**##** The Most Crucial Thing Is To Accept –
1. Stress is the primary culprit of most of our body-mind, life-living troubles…
2. Stress is natural but modern humanity is victim of stress of our own make…
3. Majority of men and women feel, accepting being stressed is bad, wrong…
4. Stress is mostly mechanismic – means, byproduct of our inevitable interaction with
milieus, which we ourselves have vitiated to make stress go out of bounds…
5. Stress is intangible, non-material and mostly subconscious and therefore most
people seldom consciously feel their body and mind are stressed; hence the denial…

3. 6. Stress is a macrocosmic reality – means, it is not what most people think as. Stress is
not ‘tension’, as most think. Stress can be physiological, bio-chemical, neuro-
chemical, psychological, cultural, sociological, genetic, systemic, and whole lot…
7. Therefore, stress is no medical or body-mind trouble only; it is macrocosmic…
Now, once we accept these SEVEN hypotheses of stress, feel in good terms with stress,
accepting it as something not as egoistically antagonistic and demeaning for our pride, then
we can also amicably accept the inflections about stress and its management…
Since thousands of years, Indian philosophical tradition has been telling us and now
modern science, especially quantum science has finally nailed it for humanity, and that
singular reality is –
** STRESS Is Inevitable, Its Onslaught On Us Is Not…!
Why? It is primarily because, stress is intangible, non-material and therefore largely only
COGNITIVE – means, it is only very partly real/actual but largely perceptional… As both
spiritualism as well as science says –
You Are As Happy Or Sad As You Think You Are…! Then, Same With STRESS…!
Therefore, as it is said about sadness, loneliness and other troubles of life and living, the
reality remains valid and true that STRESS too is a passive proposition. This means, it is not
something, which a conscious man or woman cannot overcome by pro-active
determination…
So, we now come down to the last talk – How To Win STRESS…!
The core philosophy of life-living is based not on ideas, which modern contemporary world
can label as pure imagination of idle and primitive minds. They can be accepted as
observations of realisms, present in the cosmic mechanism and in the microcosm of human
lives and their social living by people, who had the most receptive mind consciousness.
That is why the core philosophy seems so self-evident and self-corroborative. The core idea
emanates out of a realism, which is finality even today and shall always remain the ultimate
finality. This finality is mortality…

4. The dualism of life-living is infinite and humans may never agree to each other on any
single issue but, all dualisms end at the doorstep of death – The Inevitability of Certainty Of
Mortality… And, the wise of ancient world as well as scientists of quantum mechanism say
in singular voice that it is the doorstep of mortality, from where the journeys of finality of
all joyfulness and celebrations begin…!
The core Indian philosophy starts with finality as the initiation of all ideas of life. That is
why it is self-evident and self-corroborative. Our worthy ancestors could decipher that
even in the definitive and inevitable pattern of mortality; there was overall continuity and
immortality, which permeated in the milieus around them. They could decipher that in
nature, there were elements, which remained continuous and immortal in totality, even
while part of it decayed in cyclic mechanism.
This masterly observation was made available to the genius of imagination and it could be
unraveled to them that every life on earth too had core elements, which were continuous
and immortal, even when part of it decayed in time. This core observation engendered the
idea of two distinct but simultaneous elements of the cosmic realism – the mortal and
discontinuous and; the immortal and continuous. They also discovered that within human
life too, the same twin elements existed. The body was mortal and aligned to discontinuous
cosmic elements but the elemental consciousness deep within was immortal and aligned
with continuous elements. The subjective feeling of me, the self as distinct and different
from other human being was just a virtual bridge between the twin realisms of mortality
and immortality.
This core idea became the cornerstone of a philosophy, which is enshrined in the cardinal
Indian spiritual system. The yoga philosophy also adheres to this core idea. Yoga in ancient
Indian language of Sanskrit means union of the immortal elements within a human being
with the cosmic elements of immortality. Yoga is a process of attaining the union of
jeevatma (the soul of living beings) with parmatma (the ultimate soul). This core idea also
led to a belief-system, which decided the ultimate utility and purpose of all lives. Yogic
philosophy presents a self-evident and self-corroborative idea of why and what is the true
way of living one’s life.

5. The culture this core idea evolved, accepted that in life, everyone is naturally inclined to
maximize joys and minimize pains. It was accepted that self-welfare is the cardinal goal of
life for every living being and this is attainable through self-interface or self-dialogue
(aatma-sakchhatkar). The wise of our civilization empirically observed that living beings
are in constant and causative relationship with elements of nature. This nature also exists
in microcosmic form within living beings. In nature, there are both mortal and immortal
elements. They observed that mortal elements are usually expressed in tangible matter and
immortal ones in intangible form. They deciphered that human being could attain their
lasting and continuous wellness only when they establish a relationship with immortal and
intangible elements of nature and life.
The philosophy they engendered says – true and lasting relationship can happen only
between similar and generic elements. This is the idea, yogic philosophy practices in totality
and perfection. Yogic philosophy maintains that even the matter shall finally lead to a-
matter, tangible shall lead to intangible and mortal elements shall lead to immortal
elements. This is because, empirically, true and lasting relationship can happen only
between similar and generic elements. The five senses of body mechanism shall initially
orient a person to consumption and gratification. However, the same five senses
automatically and finally leads to the realization that these consumptions and gratifications
are ephemeral and mortal. The mortality is the ultimate reality and therefore the final
catalyst towards immortality of joyfulness. This is self-evident and self-corroborative as
every human knows that mortality is inevitable and the ultimate realism.
Yogic philosophy admits it as self-evident for all that all pleasures of body and all joys of
gratifications have the inbuilt and inherent energy advocating against it. The energies of
attachments and gratifications are entwined with the inverse energies of detachment and
renunciation. That is why, within a human being, the desire and will to have a life of
absolute detachment and renunciation is as powerful as the desire and will for a life of
attachment and gratification. The philosophy, which enshrines the ideals of purpose of life
as attainment of perpetuity of wellness, therefore extends this empirically self-evident and
self-corroborative fact.

6. It says that every human being should consciously opt for a relationship with only the
intangibly expressed continuous and immortal elements of nature, both within the nature
of the body-mind consciousness as well as the nature outside in physically and tangibly
expressed domain. It says that anyone can decipher the practical realism that the flow of
energy of gratification is also joyous but it ends up in the finality of pain and emptiness.
Whereas, the energy flow of detached consciousness keeps augmenting like a flame in the
fireplace, which is self-energized by constant offering of renounced elements of
consciousness.
The festivals of humanity truly herald this color of life and living. The joyfulness is simply
cognitive, it is in perceptional domain. We have to unravel it within our consciousness. The
mortality is the realism, which alone can lend us freedom from all stress. This cognitive
peacefulness of acceptance that everything is ephemeral and nothing lasts is the sole
source of lasting joyfulness and wellness… The colors of Holi festival herald this realism
that joyfulness or painfulness is cognitive… You color your consciousness with this realism
that joyfulness and wellness is celebrated with acceptance of nothingness as
everythingness of life and living…! Let us celebrate colors and paint our consciousness with
this lasting hue and shade of life-living realism…!
