This document reviews hydraulic fracturing and its role in extracting unconventional hydrocarbons. It discusses how hydraulic fracturing works to propagate fractures in rock formations, allowing the flow of trapped oil and gas. The main components of fracturing include water, sand, and other additives that make up the fracturing fluid. The process involves pumping fluid into the wellbore at high pressure to fracture the surrounding rock and leave proppants to hold the fractures open, allowing hydrocarbons to flow. Potential challenges include groundwater contamination, gas migration, and surface impacts. However, with proper monitoring, these risks can be controlled. Hydraulic fracturing has enabled extensive production from unconventional sources and is now used in over 2 million wells

The fetters and the freedom dr. shriniwas kashalikarbanothkishan
It explains that Namasmaran helps to reconnect one's true self by focusing individual consciousness on a symbol of the cosmic consciousness. This practice can help overcome mediocrity in society and rise above worldly concerns. While the details must be experienced personally, Namasmaran is described as a path to realizing one's highest potential and experiencing spiritual bliss.
Stress and revolution dr. shriniwas kashalikarbanothkishan
The document discusses the concept of revolution. It states that as individual and social development progresses, concepts like "god", "freedom", and "revolution" change meanings. It describes how individual pursuits and social struggles revolve around goals like survival, procreation, establishing supremacy, or defending one's life and values. Methods of revolution include guerilla warfare, public education, non-cooperation, and other forms of protest. The culmination is a sense of global unity and holistic policies across all fields of life, allowing individuals to connect to a cosmic consciousness.
To pushkar w ith love dr. shriniwas kashalikarbanothkishan
The author has doubts about NAMASMARAN (remembering the name of God) to a diminishing extent. While convinced it is the fundamental solution, the author is not completely satisfied unless it leads to beneficial social and political change. The author believes true personal liberation cannot exist without social revolution. Doubt remains as global problems persist and signs of change through NAMASMARAN have not manifested fully in beneficial policies across all fields. The author advocates for NAMASMARAN and subsequent globally beneficial programs and policies implemented by leaders and followed by people.
Stress selfishness and selflessness dr. shriniwas janardan kashalikarbanothkishan
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 kashalikarbanothkishan
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 and desires, it can help burn away selfishness and allow selflessness and cosmic consciousness to grow in one's heart and in society.
Namasmaran is life of life dr. shriniwas janardan kashalikarbanothkishan
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.
Marathi, mahatma gandhi and namasmaran dr shriniwas kashalikarbanothkishan
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
Ghosts and namasmaran dr shriniwas kashalikarbanothkishan
The document discusses ghosts, spirits, and the practice of Namasmaran. It argues that modern medical experts do not truly understand phenomena attributed to entities like ghosts due to limited understanding of the mind. It states that the focus should be on conquering inexplicable problems, whether through modern or traditional means. The author believes that the regular practice of Namasmaran can help minimize mental problems and empower individuals according to their own traditions. Namasmaran is said to enable conquering of "ghosts" or unexplained problems and lead to individual and cosmic blossoming.
Stress writing and reading dr. shriniwas kashalikarbanothkishan
Total stress management is difficult to articulate and share effectively due to its complexity. It addresses stress and tensions holistically rather than through reductionist or escapist approaches. Sharing concepts related to total stress management, such as NAMASMARAN, is challenging as it does not provide instant gratification like sharing other topics. One must persist patiently in sharing total stress management while remembering that it is a holistic solution, though difficult to comprehend and practice.
Stress and publicity dr. shriniwas kashalikarbanothkishan
This document discusses the stress that can come from seeking fame and popularity. While fame can give temporary pride and boosts, it often leads to depression when popularity fades. True happiness comes from within and is independent of outside validation. The practice of NAMASMARAN, or devotional remembrance, is said to make one feel fulfilled from within through immense commitment, though it is difficult. NAMASMARAN encompasses the whole universe and leads to blossoming of the soul, preempting dependence on fame by making one's enlightenment universal and immortal.
Yoga, stress & namasmaran dr. shriniwas kashalikarbanothkishan
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. The document asks if regular namasmaran, or remembrance of God, can help integrate the left and right brain, improve stress management, and enhance individual and global life.
Corruption (a holistic solution) dr. shriniwas kashalikarbanothkishan
Corruption is more than just financial scandals and bribery - it is ubiquitous in life and consciousness. Corruption stems from a restricted perspective that becomes narrow and sectarian over time, breeding corrupt thinking and emotions that rationalize unjust laws and actions without concern for overall welfare. True remedy requires rectifying the roots of corruption by regenerating a global perspective and conscience, which the author argues could be achieved through the universal practice of Namasmaran meditation. This view would need large-scale verification but poses no risks and does not interfere with beliefs.
Stress and breast feeding dr. shriniwas kashalikarbanothkishan
This document discusses merits that stress management techniques should possess. It states that stress management should be possible and feasible for most people, cause no financial loss or undesirable side effects, not be painful or a nuisance to others, involve intellectual surrender but not dependence, and be natural and conducive to growth. It provides the analogy that good stress management is like breastfeeding, which nourishes the infant for life without the infant consciously realizing it.
Holisticmanagement of global recession dr. shriniwas kashalikarbanothkishan
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 culmination of all yoga practices and meditations. Regular namasmarn by billions of people could foster global
Marvels of media dr[1]. shriniwas kashalikarbanothkishan
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 becomes too important in one's life, 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 right perspective of not worshipping or despising the media, one can appreciate its capabilities and help it develop for the betterment of society. The document recommends the practice of NAMASMARAN for inner empowerment to have the right view of the media.
The business of fear dr. shriniwas kashalikarbanothkishan
The document discusses how certain industries thrive by generating unfounded fear in people. Insurance companies, medical businesses, and cosmetic industries profit from spreading fear about naturally occurring products like ghee, coconut oil, and Bengal gram. This competition leads to an epidemic of dissatisfaction, disease, and societal decay. The fear affects everyone, including leaders who manipulate people's fears to push ideological agendas and breed more insecurity. Overcoming fear through spiritual practices like Namasmaran may be necessary for individual and global welfare.
Reservation policy & superliving dr. shriniwas kashalikarbanothkishan
The document discusses reservation policy and superliving. In 3 sentences:
If one has self-realization and self-esteem, they will not fall into roles of exploiter or exploited. Having a holistic perspective of human well-being would promote empowering education and policies to abolish the need for reservations based on money, race, religion or caste. This would instead facilitate unity and harmony in society by promoting overall social health.
Gizmo and namasmaran dr. shriniwas kashalikarbanothkishan
Gizmo, the author's Labrador dog, brought immense love and joy to their home. His presence and gestures exuded affection for the family without words. When Gizmo was sent to a kennel, the author felt a deep sense of loss. This prompted self-reflection on the author's relationship with Gizmo and realization of indifference towards animals. Interacting with Gizmo restored the author's capacity for unconditional love and motivated remembering God's name for the welfare of all living beings.
Violence & gita dr. shriniwas janardan kashalikarbanothkishan
The document discusses misconceptions around violence in the Bhagavad Gita. It argues that the Gita does not advocate violence, but rather advocates remembering one's true self and fighting forces that cause one to forget their self, which is the true violence. Fighting this violence and adharma through focus on one's self is called dharmic war in the Gita, not ordinary war. Remembering one's true self through practices like namasmarn is presented as the path to self-realization taught in the Gita.
Love beyond success dr. shriniwas janardan kashalikarbanothkishan
The document discusses the state of despair that individuals may experience during spiritual evolution when they have moved past material pleasures but not yet experienced divine love. A person pursuing higher purposes often feels restless from a lack of fulfillment in material success or universal love. This leads to loneliness as others remain engrossed in worldly pursuits. With persistence in spiritual practice like Namasmaran, one can gain a revelation of the ever-present support of divine love, experiencing all people as loving. This love beyond success is a profound and precious feeling.

The Hope of Salvation - Jude 1:24-25 - MessageCole Hartman
Jude gives us hope at the end of a dark letter. In a dark world like today, we need the light of Christ to shine brighter and brighter. Jude shows us where to fix our focus so we can be filled with God's goodness and glory. Join us to explore this incredible passage.
The Book of Ruth is included in the third division, or the Writings, of the Hebrew Bible. In most Christian canons it is treated as one of the historical books and placed between Judges and 1 Samuel.

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

I salute my Guru, who is Brahma, Vishnu and
Mahesh called Gunamaya i.e. the penultimate
truth; and the Parabrahma; i.e. the ultimate
truth.
It gives me great pleasure to share these experiences and
perceptions of my study of Bhagavad Gita. Obviously;
this is neither a translation nor a commentary. I may not
call this an interpretation also. This is simply, a sharing
of my experiences and perceptions of Bhagavad Gita!
For the sake of simplicity, henceforth I am going to refer
her as Gita.
It was in early childhood that I used to hear some
chapters such as 15th; being recited by my brothers and
sister.
During our school days I remember to have learnt some
shlokas from Gita Dhyana and some shlokas from Gita
proper. But I don’t remember the details.
After this brief encounter, all that I heard during my
medical college days, from leftist friends was not in
DR. SHRINIWAS JANARDAN KASHALIKAR
4. 4
NEW STUDY OF BHAGAVAD GITA
favor of Gita. But what I heard from many others was
high acclaim for Gita.
But somehow I was involved in many things other than
Gita and probably kept on groping in the dark for quite
some time. May be, this was because study of Gita did
not seem to have application in medical profession or
social development; or because study of Gita wasn’t
thought very important by leaders in different fields.
Most importantly, study of Gita was not promoted
enough by the local, municipal, state and central
governments; in India; to attract majority of people and
especially young minds! Study of Gita was not
associated with any apparent or tempting incentive!
I must appreciate however; that there have been many
voluntary groups trying to spread the study and message
of Gita all over the world, even though I had not come in
their contact or influenced by their activity!
But after coming to Mumbai, flame of curiosity was
ignited and interest in Gita was aroused, probably
because I had begun to revisit the Vishnusahasranam and
Namasmaran, or may be because I was becoming
increasingly aware of my inadequacies.
Apparently it was also because; I wanted to study
something world famous and ultimate in every sense; so
as to boost my ego! Hence I began the study of Gita.
DR. SHRINIWAS JANARDAN KASHALIKAR
5. 5
NEW STUDY OF BHAGAVAD GITA
But now it appears that there was much more to it than
this. Whether I studied Gita or Gita herself made me
study her, s a moot question and I feel; the latter may be
truer.
When I seriously began to study Gita; about twenty years
ago, I found many contradictions in her.
For example, in 4th chapter, Lord Krishna says in the
same verse, (Chaturvarnayam maya srustam…) that
he created four VARNAS and also; he did not create
them! Also, even as Lord Krishna advocates the war
(Tasmat uttishtha Kaunteya yuddhaya kruta
nishchaya…2nd chapter, nirashi nirmamo bhootva
yuddhaya kruta nishchaya… 3rd chapter,
Yadahankarmashritya na yotsya iti…..18th chapter),
he also upholds nonviolence and control of mind in most
of the chapters e.g. (Ahimsa satyamakrodham.. 16th
chapter, Moodhagrahenamatnoyat …17th chapter, )
as a virtue.
Similarly, Lord Krishna disapproves Arjuna’s arguments
in 1st chapter about VARNA SANKAR, which means
indisciplined and unrestricted marriages directed by mere
attraction; in different groups, (Ashochyanaiva
shochastvam prajnya vadanscha bhashase.. .2nd
chapter) he uses the same argument (Yadi hyaham na
varteyam …and utside yurime lokam… 3rd chapter).
DR. SHRINIWAS JANARDAN KASHALIKAR
6. 6
NEW STUDY OF BHAGAVAD GITA
In 2nd chapter his argument (Akeertin cha pi
bhootani…, Bhayat ranat uparatam…, Awacchya
vadanscha
bahoon…. etc) about “what people would say”, appears
to be too superficial and not enlightening or
philosophical (Please refer; page 121).
One can quote many such contradictions and
uninteresting arguments as examples; but that is not the
purpose of this writing. The purpose of this writing is; to
share my amazing experiences and exciting changes in
my perceptions of Gita and myself; as I went on studying
Gita, inspite of the contradictions and uninteresting
arguments!
Why did I continue my study of Gita inspite of the
contradictions and uninteresting arguments? Why did I
go ahead even further to byheart her?
The reason why I kept on studying and by hearting Gita
in spite of the contradictions was; I sensed that there was
something in Gita, which I was not able perceive. This
sensing of something; which I was not able to perceive,
kept on haunting me. I sensed that it was so precious that
I could not resist myself! This was like searching of
secret treasure; inspite of difficulties and dangers! That
sensation of something imperceptible in Gita kept on
propelling me from within also! It was as if I was
possessed by this sensation in and out!
DR. SHRINIWAS JANARDAN KASHALIKAR
7. 7
NEW STUDY OF BHAGAVAD GITA
In addition, I realized that I needed to correlate the
shlokas or verses in different chapters so as to extract
deeper meaning. This required; that I remembered the
verses from different chapters, so as to contemplate on
the vast canvas
of all 700 verses at any given point of time. This was the
only way to possibly resolve the contradictions; even
while traveling or walking and without having to refer a
book! So I started the uphill task of by hearting Gita even
I do not have very good memory!
But frankly speaking, even as I am giving these
apparently logical explanations, I had not quite
understood why I kept on reciting and by hearting Gita,
obsessively inspite of the contradictions!
It appears now, that Gita herself consumed my
consciousness, without me being aware of it and kept on
absorbing; my being in her!
Another reason for the persistence; (inspite of pains and
agonies of frequent and serious disagreements); which
was beyond my desire or voluntary will, may be that;
study of Gita has the roots in my previous birth. This
study may be a continuation of what was left half way; in
the last birth!
You may believe and appreciate this or discard as a flight
of imagination! I leave it to your own perceptions and
experiences!
DR. SHRINIWAS JANARDAN KASHALIKAR

But life actually encompasses the births and deaths and
hence called ANUBANDHA and NITYAGA i.e. linked
up and continuous! The continuity is evident in such
phenomena.
In the process of studying Gita; the thought to share my
understanding used be very predominant. This may be a
reaction of the excitement I derived from time to time
from Gita or it may be because I thought; I have
something to offer to the society! For this reason; I had
tried to write on Gita about ten to twelve years back, but
later I stopped halfway; as I was not quite satisfied and
was not at ease; with my own interpretations, contentions
and explanations, which appeared circular to me!
Not that I am sharing now, because I can claim to have
understood Gita completely, but because, I am convinced
that Gita enlightens us for the journey; that starts with
ignorance, individuality; and timed mortal existence; and
heads towards the destinations of self realization;
universality and trans-temporal immortal consciousness;
respectively!
At this juncture I see; that Gita deals with; 1) Molecular
activities 2) Individual activities including various
physical, instinctual, emotional and intellectual activities
3) The relationship of these with the society and universe
and 4) The relationship of all these with past, present and
DR. SHRINIWAS JANARDAN KASHALIKAR
9. 9
NEW STUDY OF BHAGAVAD GITA
future; and the all encompassing cosmic consciousness
i.e. the nature of our cosmic being.
Gita deals with the principles involved in what happens
in a molecule, in a cell, in an individual, in a society, and
in universe, every moment; and from all eternity to all
eternity. Gita deals with; not the drudgery of
enumeration
and description of irrelevant peripheral details, but with
the intricate principles involved in the intermolecular
interactions to inter-moment interactions, interpersonal
interactions, international interactions and interactions at
all the levels of consciousness. This may be termed
cosmic dynamics or cosmic orchestra; including the role
of an individual blossoming in it!
I have realized that I may not understand Gita, I may
misunderstand Gita or I may partially understand Gita. In
any case it is useful; because; with the study of Gita,
there starts the exciting voyage of enlightenment and
blossoming!
Complete understanding of Gita is impossible, because it
is trans-intellectual i.e. beyond the three levels of
consciousness (SWPANA, SUSHUPTI and JAGRUTI,
i.e. dream, sleep and wakefulness respectively) and four
modes of communication (VAACHA) viz. PARA,
PASHYANTI, MADHYAMA and VAIKHARI, i.e.
roughly speaking; communication from the root of one’s
existence without articulation(umbilical area), the
DR. SHRINIWAS JANARDAN KASHALIKAR
10. 10
NEW STUDY OF BHAGAVAD GITA
primitive instincts communication (precoridal area),
autonomic nervous system and neuroendocrine system
(throat) and communication as articulated and spoken
through central nervous activity (tongue, lips, palate etc)
respectively. These modes of communication seem to
express different levels of genuinity and varying distance
from the objective truth.
However, even if I don’t understand Gita, due to above
reason; I have the freedom and opportunity to keep on
studying Gita and merge with cosmic consciousness to
the extent possible! I have the freedom to be empowered
in the course of time; sufficient enough to relinquish at
appropriate time; “my” then redundant; intellectual,
instinctual, emotional and instinctual frameworks,
material possessions and my body, happily and
victoriously! This is akin to a blossoming flower; that
emanates its pleasant fragrance (without reservations and
any kind of pain or discomfort whatsoever) or a ripe fruit
that drops from the tree!
Now before I go ahead, I must state here, that
NAMASMARAN enabled the much necessary inner
propulsion for continued study and “understanding” Gita
to the extent possible; and Gita provided the paradigm
shift and strong and stabilizing conceptual foundation
that made it possible to adhere to apparently meaningless
and unglamorous activity of NAMASMARAN! But
most importantly it is the cosmic consciousness (Guru)
DR. SHRINIWAS JANARDAN KASHALIKAR
11. 11

that has made all this; i.e. study of Gita,
Vishnusahasranam and NAMASMARAN possible!
I am glad that it has been uploaded for free download
and is being shared with millions, WITHOUT the delay
caused by various formalities involved in printing,
publishing transportation, shipment, marketing of hard
copies (paper editions) due to several factors such as
motivation, interest, involvement of the printers,
publishers and the people
involved in marketing and sale; of hard copies,! I am also
glad that this electronic publication is independent of any
influence of sympathetic charity, donations, sponsorship.
This is what I call the grace of God or the benevolence
of the cosmic consciusness!
In as much as I don’t want to keep any copyrights; so
that anybody in the world; could utilize these shared
perceptions freely, I would also like to clarify that;
just as well meaning use of these would aid in
imminent universal blossoming; the plagiarism of this
material in any form with vested interests and
mercenary motives; would prove detrimental to the
plagiarists and their readers; and hence to everyone.

Amidst the cacophony of needs, wants, passions,
infatuations, goals, dreams and aspirations, which I was
conscious of, there was; in addition; an inexplicable and
DR. SHRINIWAS JANARDAN KASHALIKAR
12. 12
NEW STUDY OF BHAGAVAD GITA
subconscious undercurrent that seemed to give
incomprehensible twists and turns to my life; often
beyond my tolerance and forbearance, stirring me from
deep within! Added to all this was; the challenge of study
of Gita!
But even as it appeared to create turmoil within my
intellectual and emotional framework; I could not get rid
of it, till today, due to the possible reasons mentioned
earlier!
It is just in recent times that I have started appreciating
that Gita has the nectar of immortality that is beyond
individual consciousness. But till recently; I felt that Gita
(who kills one’s subjectivity), imparted a dying
experience! This is why at earlier stages I felt it was
terribly frightening to study and internalize Gita! But
even then, Gita immersed me in herself!
In past, I used to sometimes worship Gita and sometimes
contradict her; without seriously studying! I often merely
used some quotations from Gita for proving my point
and to impress the audience and feel good with myself.
During my study in college and medical college I used
get enamored by unusual terminology and bombastic
uncommon words and feel elated. Many a times quoting
Gita, added to this elation!
DR. SHRINIWAS JANARDAN KASHALIKAR
13. 13
NEW STUDY OF BHAGAVAD GITA
But now I know that I was merely; getting enamored or
repulsed by experiencing the periphery; similar to
enjoying or hating the fruit by tasting its skin!
In India, Gita is recited, chanted, by hearted by many.
Earlier I thought this was stupidity or slavish mentality.
At times I thought this was blind belief. But today I
confess frankly that I was more immature at that time,
than what I am today! Today as a student of physiology
for over 30 years, I feel that Gita can especially benefit
all the children in the world to develop and tone up their
central nervous system (including the speech areas and
speech articulation
with biomedical feedback) and enhance their evolution
during this life! This is true not merely for a child but for
any and every person of any age in the world. This is true
even if Gita is by hearted without understanding the
intricacies, which one can appreciate at a later stage of
development!
As a student of physiology, I am also sure that; by
hearting of certain facts, meaningful hymns,
philosophical or scientific sutras (e.g. those from
Ayurveda, Gita, and Arithmetic), without questioning;
lets the child build; the edifice of knowledge and then
work on it. Up to a certain age there is no capacity in us
to analyze and comprehend certain aspects of life and
hence insistence on clarification should not be
encouraged as it can act as hindrance in the learning. In
fact by hearting even if the child did not understand the
DR. SHRINIWAS JANARDAN KASHALIKAR
14. 14
NEW STUDY OF BHAGAVAD GITA
meaning is as essential; as feeding the baby, even if it did
not understand the nutritive principles in that food!
While studying Gita I realized that questions themselves
should not be discouraged, but encouraged, but it must
also be clear that all questions may not be answered
and if answered, the answers may not be understood.
Hence insistence on clarification; as a precondition to
by hearting; should not be encouraged.
Another point in learning Gita is; an approach with
humility and patience. They are very important.
Besides, hidden meanings are not understood by casual
reading and/or egocentric approach under the spell of
egalitarian, utopian or any such philosophical thought.
Moreover; Gita can not be appreciated if we are already
prejudiced by individualistic trends or socialistic
dogmas; hidden under the guise of analytical fervor and/
or scientific temper.
Patience (which is born from honesty, commitment and
readiness to go beyond individual subjectivity and
paradigms of every kind sometimes called SHRADDHA)
opens the doors to enlightenment and blossoming at
individual and global levels!
Now I realize that study of Gita can empower a serious
student of Gita to live with unconditioned acceptance,
DR. SHRINIWAS JANARDAN KASHALIKAR
15. 15
NEW STUDY OF BHAGAVAD GITA
love and respect for every moment and situation, and
work in consonance with nature; to one’s complete
fulfillment and greatest satisfaction.
Gita enables one to blossom in such a way, that
subjectivity gets shed off smoothly; while global unity
and harmony begin to pulsate in one’s heart!
It is worthwhile to share with you here; that today I feel
that; opportunity to study Gita is a one of the greatest
treasure in my life for me.

During my first few years of study of Namasmaran,
Vishnusahasranama and Gita, I was instinctively or
intuitively convinced that the essence of these teachings
was not at all in opposition to the idea of social justice
and material abundance; explicit in socialistic and leftist
way of thinking. I felt strongly; that inequality and
exploitation were aberrations; and in no way; teachings
of Gita, Vishnusahasranam and NAMASMARAN (as
sometimes thought even by me). I sensed the essence of
Gita and Vishnusahasranam and the NAMASMARAN
embodied the spirit; unifying the essence of the leftists,
rightists, believers, nonbelievers and all others!
DR. SHRINIWAS JANARDAN KASHALIKAR
16. 16
NEW STUDY OF BHAGAVAD GITA
When it became clear that being not equal can mean;
merely being different and complementary (and not
necessarily unequal in the sense of constituting
antagonistic relationship of exploiter and exploited); I
took it upon myself to clarify the essence to myself
further and share it with others. Because I had in myself,
all the elements; (like in the outside society) which were
overwhelmed by superficiality, pettiness, prejudice and
ideological adamancy.
Hence I was possessed by only one question: How to see
more clearly and then show that essence of Gita,
Vishnusahasranam and NAMASMARAN is the key to
blossoming of all, irrespective of their identity viz.
atheist, leftists, Hindus, non-Hindus, and others
belonging to different cultural and socioeconomic
groups?
I had sensed, as mentioned earlier, that Gita,
Vishnusahasranam and NAMASMARAN had the best
from capitalist or individualistic doctrines in terms of
individual blossoming and the best of Marxist, leftist,
socialist or communist doctrines in terms of global
blossoming and welfare of all; and unite all streams in
the society!
So, from this point of view, I wrote my comments or
interpretations on Gita and Vishnusahasranam and
Namasmaran, so as to highlight the innate unity and
DR. SHRINIWAS JANARDAN KASHALIKAR
17. 17
NEW STUDY OF BHAGAVAD GITA
bring everyone together, irrespective caste, creed,
religion and even socioeconomic group!
But as the time passed, I started realizing that even
though my efforts were honest (according to me), they
were subjective and incomplete. They did not convey
absolute or objective truth and hence, did not match the
demands of the time! But having not understood this
enigma; I was really frustrated. I didn’t quite understand
the subtle difference between subjective and objective
perspectives. I was unable to see how my efforts;
admired by most readers; could apparently make no
impact (in terms of socio cultural and politico economic
conditions, to my satisfaction) on myself
and the society!
In spite of my frustration, I still felt quite strongly that
the convictions if real; then must blossom the universe in
every possible way at some point of time. So I was not
too much vagrant or did not go too astray!
Gradually I began to realize that, even as my conviction
was correct according to me, it was useless and/or
counterproductive to simply despise my own short
comings! This amounted to being suicidal, i.e. violent to
me!
It was also inappropriate to hate the shortcomings of the
others. Because, that is being in a subtle way, violent to
others! Thus, I stopped despising what ever was being
DR. SHRINIWAS JANARDAN KASHALIKAR
18. 18
NEW STUDY OF BHAGAVAD GITA
marketed under the guise of spiritualism, socialism and
other brands!
I realized that there was no sense in getting frustrated,
feeling guilty, accepting defeat or blaming the so called
“spiritual” or so called “revolutionary” activities of
theists, spiritualists, atheists, leftists, secular and other
activists and theoreticians (of which I was also a part at
one point). I also found no sense in feeling sad about the
misinterpretations of Gita, Vishnusahasranam and
NAMASMARAN by their worshippers and
misinterpretations of Gita, Vishnusahasranam and
NAMASMARAN by their detractors (because I was a
party to this also!).
I realized that, what is required, is blossoming together
and empowering one another; through the study and
practice of Gita, Vishnusahasranam and
NAMASMARAN respectively.
I thought this would assist us to grow from within and
actualize intellectual, emotional, instinctual and physical
actions; in terms of globally nurturing policy making,
planning, administration and implementation and
engender individual and global blossoming!
