This document discusses the idea of unity versus forming separate organizations and identities. It argues that while issues in the past led to social and political movements and organizations, the issues are actually quite complicated. Forming organizations based on attributes like school, language or religion can sow seeds of separate identity and disunity. The key is exploring and realizing the underlying unity that already exists in all people. The author's purpose is to share concepts of unity unconditionally without forming new institutions, depending on donations, or working for any government. Their goal is spontaneous participation in individual and global blossoming.

2. Forty years back we used to read that
mass movements; based on issues, lead
to building of social and political
organizations; such as working class
unions and parties. It was said; that
these organizations could then serve as
instruments to bring about revolution.
Gradually it became clear that the
issues are not very simple. In fact
more often than not, they are too
complicated to permit taking of a side;
that would satisfy our conscience. One
of the examples was that of reservation
policy.
The idea of uniting on the basis of
school, village, region, language, caste,
religion, type of employment,
occupation, business; often kept on

especially whenever I felt lonely.
Even forming of charity trusts or
philanthropic organization appeared
impressive; and ensure; some kind of
warmth, companionship or support
system.
But, gradually all these ideas became
redundant; because; this kind of
uniting; sowed the seeds of separate
identity and hence disunity!
The fact; that universal unity is a
reality; and what is required is the
exploration, realization and
manifestation of this unity in every
walk of life; dawned in my mind along
with the comprehensive concepts of

fresh rejuvenation in my life!
Even as hundreds of organizations of
different nature have been formed, are
being formed and would be formed in
future; on different bases; I realized
that my SWADHARMA is to explore
and realize the unity (rather than
forming any new institution or
organization); through:
1. Practicing NAMASMARAN
2. Sharing the holistic concepts born
out of or associated with
NAMASMARAN; unconditionally; i.e.
for any and every person; irrespective
of age, sex, country, religion, race and
so on

5. 3. Sharing the ideas at no cost thus
NOT depending on mercenary or
commercial returns and/or interests
and/or modus operandi
4. Not depending on or working for
any charity and/or donations; but
welcoming the genuine participation
5. Not depending or working for any
government subsidy or aid
6. Not depending on; but working with
the conviction that there is bound to
be spontaneous and whole hearted
participation of the global conscience;
in this process of individual and global
blossoming, without “any call for
unity” or without formation of any
institution/s or platform/s.
