1) Dr. Shriniwas Kashalikar conducted a new study of the Bhagavad Gita and discusses his findings over multiple entries.
2) He finds that studying the Gita helps alleviate anxieties by revealing we are all moving towards the same goal. It fosters true love by removing impatience and expectations in relationships.
3) One difficulty in studying the Gita is doubting why truth needs to be shown by others, but the study helps realize that no one owns the truth and roles of teacher and student are relative.

Psychological Sorcerer: A Simple Manual on How to Influence, Persuade and Man...HeruyHaile
Ever wonder how the elite get into positions of power, this book lays out the foundation on how to receive the best form of gains in this reality we reside in.
William shannon---original-blessing---the-gift-of-the-true-selfJonathan Dunnemann
This document summarizes Thomas Merton's views on the true self and false self. It makes three key points:
1. Most religions believe humans originally possessed happiness from awareness of their true self, but became alienated from it. Finding the true self through contemplation can lead to salvation.
2. Merton believed contemplation involves becoming attentive to the "hidden ground of Love" that unites us with all reality. Through attentiveness the subject-object divide dissolves and we experience oneness with God.
3. We have a fundamental awareness of God built into us, like a silent question of "Am I not your God?". Contemplative prayer can bring this awareness to consciousness
This document provides a summary and analysis of chapters from the Bhagavad Gita by Dr. Shriniwas Kashalikar. It discusses themes like subjective perception, cosmic consciousness, the nature of the universe, nonviolence, obstacles to self-realization, and suppression. Key points include that the Gita advocates blossoming of individual and global consciousness, does not support indiscriminate nonviolence or suppression, and provides a universal path to reaching the absolute truth through practices like remembrance of God.
Complementarity & Equality Dr Shriniwas Kashalikarrustomvaccha
1) While equality has been an important ideal for governance, true governance of the universe is achieved through complementarity, not just equality.
2) Insisting only on superficial equality, like having similar food, clothes, and behaviors, stifles human growth and development. True equality allows for freedom and blossoming of each individual.
3) Namasmaran, or remembering the name of God, is a universal spiritual practice that helps reconnect one's physiological self to one's true self. It leads to unification of individual consciousness with cosmic consciousness.
1) Excessive production of private vehicles like cars and motorcycles rather than public transportation like buses and trains has led to a rise in accidents.
2) As vehicle numbers increase, so do issues like fuel consumption, road wear, pollution, traffic jams, accidents, and stress for travelers.
3) The root cause is policies that favor private interests over public health; changing policies to prioritize and improve bus services could significantly reduce accidents and other problems.
Concept Of Healthy Aging Dr. Shriniwas Kashalikarrustomvaccha
This document discusses the concept of holistic health and healthy aging. It defines holistic health as the ongoing movement towards accurate perception, appropriate feelings, and precise actions, bringing increasing pleasure, power, prosperity and profundity. It then discusses various physiological, psychological, and spiritual changes that occur with aging, including changes to cognition, affect, conation, organs and body systems. It argues that the common perception of aging as only involving dysfunction, dependence and helplessness is inadequate and wrongly pessimistic, without considering humans' ability to experience healthy aging.
Disunion Is Disturbance Dr. Shriniwas Kashalikarrustomvaccha
1) Namasmaran, or the remembrance of God's name, is proposed as a way to unite the spiritual and practical aspects of life that are currently disconnected.
2) It works by reorienting one's physiological self with one's true spiritual self through remembering God or a guru as a symbol of the true self.
3) This allows individual consciousness from every activity to funnel into cosmic consciousness, making namasmaran a culmination or "yoga of yoga" that can benefit people of any tradition or belief.

Stress and publicity dr. shriniwas kashalikarrustomvaccha
This document discusses the stress that can come from seeking fame and popularity. While fame can boost pride temporarily, it often leads to depression when it fades and can disillusion people. True happiness comes from within and not from external validation. The practice of NAMASMARAN, or devotional worship, is said to make people feel fulfilled from within through immense commitment, though it is difficult. NAMASMARAN encompasses the whole universe rather than petty achievements, leading to an enlightened soul that benefits all people universally and immortal.
Yoga, stress & namasmaran dr. shriniwas kashalikarrustomvaccha
The document discusses how a lack of yoga, which integrates the left and right parietal cortex, can lead to an inability to see the interconnections between different fields. This disunity can then cause mismanagement of stress, prejudice, injustice and crimes. While intelligence relies on left brain development, right brain development is also needed for balance and to avoid antisocial behavior. Regular namasmarn, or remembrance of God, may help integrate the left and right brains, improve stress management, and enhance individual and global well-being.
Corruption (a holistic solution) dr. shriniwas kashalikarrustomvaccha
Corruption is more than just financial scandals and bribery - it is ubiquitous. [1] Corruption stems from a restricted perspective that becomes narrow and sectarian over time, breeding corrupt thinking and emotions that rationalize unjust actions. [2] True reform requires addressing the roots of corruption by restoring a global perspective and conscience, which the author argues can be achieved through the universal practice of Namasmaran. [3] This solution aims to cure corruption from its roots by treating the disease of a corrupted perspective.
Stress and breast feeding dr. shriniwas kashalikarrustomvaccha
This document discusses merits that stress management techniques should possess. It suggests that stress management should be natural like breastfeeding, which nourishes infants for growth even if they do not realize it. Similarly, stress management should play a "life building and life blossoming role" through techniques like chanting god's name that nourish people spiritually without their conscious effort or realization, just like breastfeeding aids physical growth. The document ends by stating that teachers are considered "mothers" because they spiritually nourish students over generations through such stress-relieving practices.

Holisticmanagement of global recession dr. shriniwas kashalikarrustomvaccha
The document discusses holistic management of global recession through namasmarn, or remembering the name of God. It states that current individualistic and sectarian perspectives have led to cancerous growth and mutual antagonism. This causes economic booms and busts as consumer bases shrink due to widespread deprivation. It recommends 1) teaching children spiritual practices like prayer from a young age, 2) promoting productive sectors over wasteful activities, 3) incentivizing agriculture, and 4) reducing private vehicle production in favor of public transportation. Most importantly, it asserts that namasmarn unifies individual consciousness with cosmic consciousness and is the ultimate form of yoga and meditation, with the power to manifest positive change.
Marvels of media dr[1]. shriniwas kashalikarrustomvaccha
The document discusses the influence of media on people's lives and how it can be both beneficial and harmful depending on how much importance one gives to it. It notes that if the media assumes too much importance, it can prejudice people with unrealistic views. While the media tries to portray itself as all-powerful heroes, people need to understand that the media should serve them and not dictate to them. With the practice of remembrance of the divine name, one can appreciate the potential benefits of media while avoiding being negatively influenced.

The document discusses the importance of NAMASMARAN, which it describes as the life of life in the individual and cosmos. It states that a lack of NAMASMARAN leads to self-betrayal, torture, deception, degradation, debility, unawareness, contempt, and destruction. The document emphasizes that NAMASMARAN should be the top priority in life and is the core that everything revolves around. It further shares the perspective of Brahmachaitanya Shri Gondavalekar Maharaj that NAMASMARAN must be cared for even more than one's own life.
Marathi, mahatma gandhi and namasmaran dr shriniwas kashalikarrustomvaccha
The document discusses the author's dilemma as a common man between feelings of Marathi pride and a more inclusive global attitude. It argues that the solution is to understand these feelings as subjective and not generalize them to others. Rather than reacting viciously, one should make efforts to grow and blossom together. The quest for self-knowledge is universal, and Mahatma Gandhi's ideas like nonviolence and practices like namasmarn aimed for individual and global empowerment and blossom through overcoming obstacles from within and without. The core of Gandhi's personality came from his enlightenment and practice of namasmarn, though he may not have expressed this adequately. As a common man, the author can achieve
Stress writing and reading dr. shriniwas kashalikarrustomvaccha
The document discusses the difficulty in sharing information about total stress management. It notes that while sharing desires, feelings, and aspirations that have strong physiological substrates is easy, sharing ideas about welfare and total stress management is much more difficult. This is because concepts like total stress management and namasmarn have a weaker foundation in the brain and are harder to articulate in a pleasurable way. One must persist in sharing about total stress management while remembering that it provides holistic stress relief, even though it is challenging to practice and share effectively.
The fetters and the freedom dr. shriniwas kashalikarrustomvaccha
It argues that when mediocre leaders emerge, their idiosyncrasies can influence masses in detrimental ways, leading to unrest. To overcome this, one should practice Namasmaran to free oneself from mediocrity and express views with confidence despite social inertia. Namasmaran helps unify individual consciousness with cosmic consciousness by reorienting one's being to their true self. It is a meditation practice and "yoga of yoga" that helps realize super-bounties of living beyond material concerns
Stress and revolution dr. shriniwas kashalikarrustomvaccha
The document discusses the concept of revolution. It states that as individual and social development progresses, concepts like "god", "freedom", and "revolution" change meanings. Individual pursuits and social struggles revolve around goals like survival, procreation, establishing supremacy, or defending one's life and values. Methods of revolution include warfare but also non-violent actions like education, protests, and non-cooperation. The culmination is a sense of global unity and holistic policies across all fields of life, allowing individuals to transcend and find cosmic consciousness.
Stress selfishness and selflessness dr. shriniwas janardan kashalikarrustomvaccha
This document discusses stress that arises from selfishness and the transition to selflessness. It argues that practicing and propagating the remembrance of God's name (Namasmaran) can help expedite the stressful transition from selfishness to selflessness by reducing cravings and desires. Propagating Namasmaran amounts to promoting selflessness over dehumanizing forces and helps create an environment where all needs are optimally fulfilled to facilitate the shift from selfishness to considering others.
Stress and selfishness dr. shriniwas kashalikarrustomvaccha
Stress arises from selfish desires and cravings that are never fully satisfied. As humans, we are able to make choices but this also leads to conflicts and dilemmas that produce stress. One way to help transition from selfishness to selflessness is through the regular practice and promotion of Namasmaran, chanting the name of the divine. By focusing on Namasmaran, which is not as strong a drive as physiological needs, it can help burn away selfishness and allow selflessness and cosmic consciousness to grow in one's heart and society.
Namasmaran is life of life dr. shriniwas janardan kashalikarrustomvaccha
The document discusses the importance of NAMASMARAN, which it describes as the life of life in the individual and cosmos. It states that a lack of NAMASMARAN leads to self-betrayal, torture, deception, degradation, debility, unawareness, contempt, and destruction. The document emphasizes that NAMASMARAN should be the top priority in life and is the core that everything revolves around. It further shares the view of a famous Indian spiritual leader that NAMASMARAN must be cared for even more than one's own life.

Stress writing and reading dr. shriniwas kashalikarrustomvaccha
Sharing one's desires, thoughts, and dreams can provide pleasure, especially when it is easy to do so. However, sharing aspirations to help the welfare of the universe is very difficult because it has a weaker foundation in the brain compared to more instinctual desires. Total stress management is also very difficult to articulate and share smoothly because it does not produce instant results like sharing other things. One must remain patient and persistent in sharing total stress management despite the challenges.
Stress spiritualism and materialism dr. shriniwas janardan kashalikarrustomvaccha
The document discusses the shortcomings of both spiritualism and materialism in managing stress. Spiritual discourses on TV promise emancipation but are individualistic, utopian, and escapist, cutting people off from reality and aggravating rather than relaxing stress. Material efforts take fragmented approaches and offer superficial solutions that do not address root problems or satisfy one's soul. Neither extreme asceticism nor indulgence can offer holistic stress management for individuals and society. True spiritualism and materialism that ensure total stress management spring from remembrance of the divine name as explained in the author's books.
Stress and time dr. shriniwas janardan kashalikarrustomvaccha
Stress and lack of time can prevent us from spiritual growth and realizing our cosmic nature. When we are not living in cosmic consciousness, we focus only on worldly concerns and are unable to see the global awakening of consciousness. Regular namasmaran, or remembrance of the divine, allows us to see individual and global progress towards unity and participate in plans that foster global well-being.
Stress and respect dr. shriniwas janardan kashalikarrustomvaccha
Stress and inner turmoil can arise from both inner and outer influences, compelling us to respond. However, regularly practicing NAMASMARAN (remembrance of the divine) can help overcome these influences by opening our "inner eyes of wisdom" to recognize higher values of enlightenment. Without this practice, we risk being misled by superficial or harmful outer forces and values that take us away from our true selves and spread confusion. NAMASMARAN helps unite us globally by focusing on our shared higher source and allowing consensus on important issues.
Unconditoned happiness dr. shriniwas k ashalikarrustomvaccha
The document discusses the state of unconditioned happiness exemplified by saints. It summarizes that this state is not one of depression, surrender, or indifference, but rather a "trans-physical, trans-physiological and trans-psychological" state where one has risen above perceptions and influences of the senses, endocrine and nervous systems. In this state, individuals appear unaffected by situations but can still interact and manifest wisdom in various subtle forms, including through scriptures or actions. Unconditioned happiness is a hallmark of evolved consciousness, not indolence or ignorance.

It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375

Can the study of Gita allay various anxieties?
One of the most interesting things I learnt from Gita; and
also got thoroughly convinced in the course of time from
the practice of NAMASMARAN; is the fact that
everyone is moving towards the same goal and the same
destination.
This fact usually remains concealed and one gets
impatient
to “teach others”, “for their welfare”! Alternatively one
may desperate to learn from someone! This impatience
though natural can create condescending attitude and
develop subtle expectations such as publicity and growth
of your (otherwise selfless) mission! The desperation to
learn can lead to slavishness and/or deception. This can
take away your peace and mar the quality of your
behavior.
When we appreciate this fact; that we all are going in
the same direction and towards the same goal, then
true love (probably more than that evident amongst the
pilgrims) emerges and blossoms. That is the greatest
hallmark of world culture.
Once I get convinced and clear about this fact, then the
acts of impatience and ignorance (whether committed by

NEW STUDY OF BHAGAVAD GITA
me or others) do not disturb me any more to a significant
extent.
It is matter of great privilege for us; to realize; (deep
experience) this love; especially amongst family
members, relatives, colleagues, coworkers, people of our
country, people from world and latter; even the enemies!
Even as this revelation of love is magnificent; it may not
manifest in the mind of the student of Gita at all times
and in all persons. It is natural therefore (and hence need
not be despised) that; at various stages of development
even the students of Gita can be seen frantically advising,
admonishing, preaching and also expect the results; from
themselves and from others. But Gita surely frees the
students Gita from this in the course of time and lets us
enjoy the sublime love hitherto hidden or masked by
superficiality!
One of the difficulties in the study of Gita is that; it
can develop a doubt; “Why truth has to be shown by
some one else?” or “Why should I follow the
ancestors?”
As the study proceeds, however; you gradually realize
that the thought that “somebody else showing the truth”,
is because of erroneous image of “self” and the “other”.
It is also because of the faulty images of “following” and
“ancestors”. The learning or accepting knowledge should
DR. SHRINIWAS JANARDAN KASHALIKAR
5. 5
NEW STUDY OF BHAGAVAD GITA
never depend on who gives it and whether it comes from
your ancestors or contemporary peers.
The knowledge or enlightenment or revelation or
objective truth is like Sun. Sun does not belong to the
window
through which His rays enter! The “truth”, which is
omniscient and omnipotent and omnipresent, does not
“belong” to any one! So it is illusory to think that it
belongs to some one else who “shows” you and you
follow!
From another angle, the idea “somebody else” is a
relative idea. If we look at ourselves objectively, then we
learn to look “me” and “somebody else” as two
individuals with no specific preference. There is no good
or bad feeling irrespective of about who is learning from
whom! This is
because the ego of petty self dissolves; as one studies
Gita with persistence. So no one is superior or inferior
irrespective of whether he/she learns or teaches. These
are only roles the individuals play!
From yet another point of view, even the idea; of
ancestors and decedents is relative; if we could look at it
by going beyond the framework of time. Just as right and
left depend on how we stand, similarly past and present
lose meaning if we stand beyond the framework of time.
Hence the hollow superiority or false inferiority
disappears; when; through the study of Gita we learn to
DR. SHRINIWAS JANARDAN KASHALIKAR
6. 6
NEW STUDY OF BHAGAVAD GITA
see more objectively! Hence, it is also erroneous to think
that it “belongs” to your ancestors and you are an inferior
descendent to “receive” it from them or other way round
that you great because you are teaching it to your
descendent.
!
“Truth” or “self” is beyond time and it is absurd and
baseless to be captive of superiority or inferiority
complexes (developed because of petty identity), which
come in he way realization of truth!
Isn’t it possible to develop pride about our learning
blow our trumpet?
It is quite likely to be proud in the early stages. But as we
come to know that there were, there are and there will be
millions of students of Gita learning her!
Also, gradually during study we realize that if “I” learn
Gita; it is neither a matter of pride (if acclaimed by
people respecting Gita); nor a matter of pity (if ridiculed
by people, who look down upon Gita). This is because,
from philosophical and therefore realistic point of view, I
am not the owner of what all capabilities, which I have;
as I have not created them! It is simply a matter of being
happy to blossom together!
What is the relevance of virtues; described in Gita;
today?
DR. SHRINIWAS JANARDAN KASHALIKAR
7. 7
NEW STUDY OF BHAGAVAD GITA
In Gita, there is a reference to virtues in many places;
including 16th and 18th chapters.
One of them is “truth”.
In everyday practice, there is always a conflict between
loyal description of facts (which can either prove stupid
and invite difficulties; or wise at produce profits) and
concealing or misrepresenting the facts, (which also can
engender punishment or yield gains). Hence there is
ongoing conflict in every mind about the virtue viz. truth
and Gita provides the answer to it.
I began to appreciate the ‘true’ meaning of ‘truth’
gradually and distinguish it from “mere narration of
apparent facts; even if done with 100%; loyalty and
fidelity”.
I began to understand that realization of “truth”; is a
process and it leads to expression of appropriate
behavior, conducive to blossoming of everyone and
realization of truth!
For this (rising above the criminal lies and gullible truths
and living effectively to reach the truth) to happen; there
are many precepts which ought to be followed from
childhood, but the most important and universally
practicable in every condition and situation is
NAMASMARAN.
DR. SHRINIWAS JANARDAN KASHALIKAR

What is the meaning of the verse in 6th chapter;
(UDDHARET ATMANATMANAM
NATMANAM AVASADAYET ATMAIVA
HYATMANO BANDHUH ATMAIVA
RIPURATMANA) which is very famous? How
one is enemy of oneself?
I began to understand this; by correlating it with the
previous reference to the self. Lord Krishna elucidates
the nature of real self to Arjuna in the 2nd and 3rd
chapters. He then advises Arjuna in 6th chapter, in this
verse; to rescue and uplift the other part of his
consciousness (we can call it lower or actually physical
or physiological consciousness; without being
derogatory) that has been trapped in body systems;
feelings and intellectual framework; and obviously;
prevent its further bondage. He further states that if you
do this; then you would find that that your lower
consciousness is friend of your higher consciousness
(you) and if you don’t, then you would find that your
lower consciousness is verily the enemy of your higher
consciousness (you).
The consciousness trapped in body, mind, ego and/or
subjectivity is the enemy if not properly negotiated with
and mastered or conquered. This consciousness becomes
our friend, close friend once negotiated with and
conquered, or shall we say brought in harmony with
ourselves. This activity of winning part of our own

consciousness, without being repulsive or escapist is
YOGA. It is said (by those who have achieved this
MAHAYOGA), that NAMASMARAN makes this
possible.
How to accept a bloody war as an opportunity?
When I began the study, it used to appear strange that in
2nd chapter Lord Krishna has referred the war as great
opportunity.
I used to find this strange and not acceptable, because of
my erroneous concepts and feelings about the violence. I
used to think that war is devilish, vicious, and avoidable
and hence should be avoided.
Later, I used to partly agree that “this war as
opportunity”
but rather reluctantly, because I used to think that Lord
Krishna justified this war because it was imposed on
them even as he had tried to avert the war through
maximum possible negotiations!
But now I realize that the upholding of war as an
opportunity; refers to the option (which no other living
being has) to emancipate the lower consciousness by
participating in the war to conquer all physiological
conflicts inside and social contradictions; outside!
DR. SHRINIWAS JANARDAN KASHALIKAR
10. 10
NEW STUDY OF BHAGAVAD GITA
In my view this war of rescuing and emancipating the
consciousness trapped in senses is described in
HATHAYOGA texts as KUDALINI JAGRUTI. Hence
HATHAYOGA practices (described in 6th chapter of
Gita and Dnyaneshavari or Jnaneshvari) and intellectual
exploration as through the SANKHY YOGA (also
described in 2nd chapter of Gita and Jnaneshvari) are
perfectly complementary and reach you to the same
destination, viz. individual and global blossoming!
The heavenly beauty and bounty of Gita is that she takes
you beyond petty “love and hate” relationships. She
reveals to you; how the love and hatred; in as much as
the sense of fear and animosity; are born in your
consciousness trapped in your senses and how rescuing
the same would free you from all subjectivity and all
pettiness. I seem to understand now, that this; if realized
by us; can make our personal relationships far more
pleasant than one can ever imagine!
Our relationships can become sublime and can go
beyond any distance, any time and even death, through
Gita and hence Gita is a super romantic cosmic poetry.
Every single step in this direction is more precious than
the entire world, even if mountains of drawbacks and
oceans of adversities within or outside us; try to drag us
back!
I have written an article entitled “Worshiping Sex” and
unknowingly or not being fully aware, I have highlighted

in it; this process of lovingly rescuing “part” of “your
consciousness” (making it your friend) from the
“physiological prisons”, rather than hating it. I can
appreciate now, the feeling of respect and adoring,
towards; sexual attraction in the universe; at the root of
which, there is motherhood and fatherhood and why it is
worshipped as Goddess Kundalini (and various
Goddesses); who merges with the true self; when
appropriate.
