The ultimate aim of any philosophy or religion is supposed to be towards the welfare of the society showing a
genuine concern for humanity as a whole. However one has to accept the fact that unfortunately some of the
philosophies have nurtured themselves in such a way that they have emerged merely in an academic fashion
exhibiting the scholarship of the propounder and further utilizing the language in a verbose style. Similarly most
of the religions have also engrossed themselves in the rituals in an untiring manner which have taken foremost
position and toll, surpassing the real Spiritual aspect along with Philosophy. It is sad that so many centuries have
rolled down and still we are groping in darkness with same basic problems while as a contrast, Science with
empirical proofs has shown in all its branches notable progress. In fact all living beings strive for comfort and
further exert to crystallize the same into happines
The idea of a soul is a complex one. First of all, because the.docxcherry686017
The idea of a soul is a complex one. First of all, because there is not one definition that people can consensually
agree on. Secondly, because what exactly a soul entails or what its purpose it has is controversial. And lastly,
because no one can say for sure who has a soul: humans? Animals? Trees? It could be thought that to have a
soul is to have duality of the body and mind, or to have an after life, or maybe to have the capacity for sympathy.
Personally I believe it is to have the capacity for sympathy because to have empathy or sympathy is to relate to
others, which is ultimately the basis of our mortality. In the case of ethical medicinal practices, the role of a soul
and the ability to empathize and relate to others is key.
The amount of limitations that should be put medical research for humans is ultimately a question of ethics. If
the above definition of a soul can be at least somewhat agreed on, then it can also be said that humans must
have a soul and must have the ability to relate to others. So in conducting medical research on humans, most
would think that the conductor would use his empathy and overall knowledge of human mortality to make a
decision of what is ethically right.
However it is not that simple. Just as human relations are a large part in our mortality, so are individual opinions
and diversity of opinion. In anthropological terms, diversity of opinion can be seen as a manifestation of culture.
Culture categorizes us into groups based on many different aspects, including environment, religion, language,
etc., and ultimately shapes our views and beliefs on virtually everything. In this respect I think the topic of
beneficence cannot simply be reduced to ethics but more narrowly, to a respect and acceptance for all cultures.
This concept is clearly demonstrate in the Yanomami case study because the researchers' idea of what is
ethical (based on their western culture) is very different from that of the Yanomami tribe. The researchers'
intentions were all good, in fact they both wanted to use their research to benefit the Yanomami themselves, but
there is a large cultural gap which they ignored; therefore counteracting their good intentions and offending the
very people they were trying to help.
Regretfully these sort of cultural and ethical boundaries are often overlooked. So while one might think its
common sense to make the people you are researching your first ethical priority, the vast cultural differences
don't make this such a black and white situation, thus making a demand for such review boards. The main
principled argument that most people would agree with is that no research should be done on humans without
the subjects consent, regardless of its potential revolutionary benefits. On a similar note, it should also be in the
interest of the boards to measure the amount of risk involved with the research to its potential benefits and make
sure they are consistent with each other.
All in all, I think ...
“The fundamentals of science of living may be defined as” the body of knowledge consisting of certain principles which define the style of life, show the problems and solutions and present the path for the betterment of way of life. The modern and contemporary culture is having an impact on education. Education is more understood to be a training for getting some skills to earn and live luxuriously than to improve knowledge and inculcate culture to have a journey for truth. When the education and training are endowed with the value s then the system becomes more a path for perfection. Such education backed by training can make the man to observe, analyse, synthesise and interpret the actions of his bodymind complex and make him potential enough to do a thing, pragmatic enough to be efficient and wise enough to have a hunt for peace and bliss. In his hunt for peace and bliss he finds out the first hurdle in his mind.

The Spiritual Core
of African-Centered
Psychology
Over the past one hundred years, the discipline of psychology has exploded
onto the academic and scientific scene, advancing theories of human behavior,
theories of normal and abnormal development, and theories of the personal
and situational variables that contribute to one’s personality makeup. In fact,
there are entire schools of thought that have been developed as a way to syn-
thesize the vast array of ideas proposed by various theorists who are convinced
that their theory is the most compelling in the understanding of the human
psyche. There are Euro-American schools of thought that are labeled psychody-
namic, neo-analytic, behaviorism, humanistic, cognitive-behavioral, and exis-
tential (Myers, 2010).
MISSING ELEMENTS
In illustrating this point, many psychoanalytic theories are anchored in the
works of Sigmund Freud, who viewed human nature as a dynamic interplay be-
tween the unconscious, preconscious, and conscious mind. Each domain is be-
lieved to be responsible for navigating perspectives that influence how each
individual responds to internal instinctual drives (unconscious), repressed or
stored memories (preconscious), or to the demand of the external environment
(the conscious). Freud’s approach advanced the notion that the personality
comprised three interrelated parts labeled the ID (basic instincts that operate ac-
cording to what is pleasurable and satisfaction seeking), EGO (conscious
choices that are anchored in perceptions of reality), and the SUPER EGO (a
mental conscience influenced by parental values and principles of morality).
Psychoanalytic theory also proposed five stages (oral, anal, phallic, latency, and
genital) of development in a person’s life, each focusing on a region of the

Since this hypothesis cannot be verified by using animals, it has to be experimented by large number of human volunteers; spread all over the world, from different racial and religious backgrounds; and for sufficient time; with sincere involvement; before it can be generalized.
समाजात; आणि विशेषत: सर्व प्रकारच्या सत्ताकेंद्रांत जेवढे नामस्मरण वाढेल, तेवढ्या अधिकाधिक प्रमाणात समाजामधील सर्व स्तरांवरील क्रिया आणि प्रतिक्रिया अधिकाधिक पूर्वग्रहरहित (न्यायपूर्ण) आणि म्हणून कल्याणकारक होतात आणि व्यक्ती आणि समाजाचा सर्वांगीण विकास वेगाने होऊ लागतो.
ज्याप्रमाणे चुलीमुळे आग नियंत्रित होते आणि तिची धग भांड्याला नीटपणे लागून अन्न वेळेमध्ये शिजते, त्याचप्रमाणे जीवनातील सर्व भोगांची आणि उपभोगांची धग नामस्मरणरुपी चुलीमुळे अंतरात्म्याकडे पोचते आणि अंतरात्म्यामध्ये समाधानरुपी अन्न शिजू लागते. साहजिकच आपले, आपल्या कुटुंबियांचे आणि समाजाचे समाधान होऊ लागते! ज्याप्रमाणे चुली आणि त्यांच्यातील आग कमी जास्त असते, त्याचप्रमाणे नामसाधकांच्या प्रगतीचे टप्पे देखील वेगवेगळे असतात. पण नामस्मरणाने समाधानाकडे वाटचाल होऊ लागते; हे केवळ सद्गुरू ब्रह्मचैतन्य श्री गोंदवलेकर महाराजांच्याच नव्हे तर सर्वच संत महात्म्यांच्या शिकवणीचे त्रिवार सत्य असे सार आहे.
ह्या अमृताचा अगदी अंशत: अनुभव देखील जीवन झळाळून टाकणारा असतो आणि तो येण्यासाठी चित्तशुद्धी होत राहण्याची आवश्यकता असते. ही चित्तशुद्धी नामस्मरणाद्वारे होत जाते आणि ती चित्तशुद्धी देखील कोणत्याही बाह्य लक्षणाने ओळखता येत नाही आणि दाखविता येत नाही!
नामसंकल्पयुक्त नामस्मरणाचे चैतन्याधिष्ठान आणि सद्गुरुंची गोड ओढ; यानी रटाळ क्षण उत्साहवर्धक बनतो, कंटाळवाणा दिवस सण बनतो आणि निरर्थक आयुष्य कृतार्थ बनते! कुणीही हे करून पाहिले तर याचा अनुभव येऊ शकेल.
होय! अशी एक पायाभूत सुविधा आहे! पूर्णपणे बिनखर्चाची, कुणाचेही अंत:करण आणि आणि अस्मिता न दुखावणारी आणि सर्वांनाच सहज शक्य अशी ही सुविधा आहे. ह्या सुविधेद्वारे सद्विचार, सद्भावना, सद्वासना, सत्संकल्प आणि विश्वकल्याणकारी आणि सतत विकसित होणारी सत्कार्ये अविरतपणे घडू लागतात. प्रत्येक व्यक्ती समाधानी आणि कृतार्थ होऊ लागते. अशी अत्याधिक अत्यावश्यक पायाभूत सुविधा म्हणजे नामस्मरण
“नाम घेणाऱ्याला सत्कर्म टाळू म्हणता टाळता येत नाही” असे जेव्हां सद्गुरू श्री. ब्रह्मचैतन्य महाराज गोंदवलेकर म्हणतात, तेव्हां त्यांमध्ये वरील सर्वकाही अंतर्भूत आहे, म्हणजेच वेळ, पैसा आणि शक्ती यांचे (अर्थात आयुष्याचे) सर्वोत्तम व्यवस्थापन अनुस्यूत आहे!
परंतु पूर्वजन्मीच्या किंवा ह्या जन्मीच्या नामस्मरणाने; स्वत:च्या आणि इतरांच्या कल्याणाविषयी जी वैचारिक स्पष्टता येते ती स्पष्टता, जी गोड आणि उत्कट आस्था तयार होते ती आस्था, आणि त्या अनुरोधाने जी मन:पूर्वक कृती घडते ती कृती; ह्या तीनही बाबी मात्र हृदयाच्या अगदी जवळ असतात.
१. केवळ वाचन आणि चर्चेने नामस्मरणाच्या ह्या विश्वकल्याणकारी सामर्थ्याची संकल्पना काही प्रमाणात येऊ शकेल, पण त्याची प्रचीती येण्यासाठी नामस्मरण करणेच अत्यावश्यक आहे. किंबहुना, नामस्मरणाला पर्याय नाही असे म्हटले तरी ते अतिशयोक्त ठरणार नाही!
आपणा सर्वांना निकोप जीवनासाठी आणि जीवनाच्या सार्थकतेसाठी नामस्मरणाची, श्रीक्षेत्र गोंदवल्याची आणि अश्या प्रसाद व महाप्रसादाची अत्यंत तीव्र आणि निकडीची गरज आहे!
नामस्मरण करत प्रसाद किंवा महाप्रसाद वाढणारे आणि ग्रहण करणारे सर्वच जण ईश्वराप्रती किंवा आपल्या सद्गुरुप्रती कृतज्ञ असतात आणि कृतार्थ असतात! यातून परस्परांच्या कल्याणाची सद्वासना, सद्भावना, सद्विचार, आणि सत्संकल्प यांचे पोषण होऊन सर्वांचे उत्थान अधिक जोमाने गतिमान होते.
सद्गुरू श्री. ब्रह्मचैतन्य गोंदवलेकर महाराज म्हणतात, "आंधळ्याने पाणी भरावे तसे नाम घ्यावे. भांडे भरले किती आणि रिकामे किती, हे त्याला समजत नाही. तो भरतच राहतो. तसे नाम सतत घेत राहावे. देहाच्या कणाकणातून नामाचा ध्वनी केव्हाही यावा इतके नाम घ्यावे. सुरुवातीला रामनाम असे मुरले की पुन्हा जास्त लक्ष द्यावे लागत नाही. आपोआप देहाचे सारे कण नामजप करतात."
आम्ही सर्वच माध्यमवाल्यांनी नामस्मरणाचा अत्यंत आस्थेने अभ्यास, अगत्यपूर्वक अंगिकार आणि जीव तोडून प्रसार केला पाहिजे ह्याची खोलवर आणि तीव्र जाणीव झाली आणि त्यातच आमचे आणि सर्वांचे भले आहे ह्याबद्दल खात्री झाली!!
तुमची परम कृपा मात्र प्राणवायूप्रमाणे चिरंतन, चैतन्यमय, स्फूर्तिदायी आणि शाश्वत समाधान देणारी आहे! नामस्मरणाच्या आणि तज्जन्य सद्बुद्धीच्या, सद्भावनांच्या, सद्वासनांच्या, सत्संकल्पांच्या आणि सत्कर्माच्या रूपाने ती माझ्यासारख्या सर्वांना उपलब्ध झाली आहे!
श्रीराम समर्थ!
सतत नामस्मरण घडू लागले, गुरुची सत्ता पदोपदी जाणवू लागली, गुरुचे सानिध्य क्षणोक्षणी जाणवू लागले, जगण्याची उमेद वाढली, आजारपणाची आणि मृत्त्युची भीती गेली; आणि विशेष म्हणजे; ह्यापेक्षा वेगळे ध्येय गाठण्याची व त्यासाठी अधिक काही करण्याची उर्मी गेली तर तोच साक्षात्कार नाही का?
ह्यामुळे आहे त्या परिस्थितीत नामस्मरण टिकू लागते आणि वाढू लागते! आश्चर्याची बाब म्हणजे आपल्या लक्षात येऊ लागते की हीच ती खरी शांतता, खरी विश्रांती आणि हीच ती (स्वत:, इतर आणि परिस्थिती यांच्यामधल्या) खऱ्या सुधारणेची ईश्वरी प्रक्रिया!
Our Sadguru Shri Brahmachaitanya Maharaj Gondavalekar said, “Trust that the practice of NAMASMARAN as prescribed by Guru would emancipate the universe! Lord Rama would bless!”
नामाच्या सत्तेनेच आपल्या कळत-नकळत; सदभिरुची, सदिच्छा, सत्संकल्प, सत्प्रेरणा, सत्बुद्धी, सद्भावना, सद्वासना, सदाचार; म्हणजेच सद्गुरू ब्रह्मचैतन्य श्री. गोंदवलेकर महाराजांना अभिप्रेत असलेली संस्कृती आणि सुधारणा; व्यक्तिगत आणि सामाजिक जीवनात अधिकाधिक प्रमाणात आविष्कृत होत असतात!
पण काळजी करण्याचे कारण नाही. आपल्या इच्छे-अनिच्छेपलिकडे; विश्वचैतन्याची जननी आपली गुरुमाउली सर्व बऱ्या वाईट प्रसंगात आपल्याला सांभाळून आपल्याला चैतन्यामृतपान करवीत आहे. आपल्याकडून नामस्मरण आणि स्वधर्मपालन वाढत्या प्रमाणात करवीत आहे. सदभिरुची, सदिच्छा, सत्संकल्प, सत्प्रेरणा, सत्बुद्धी, सद्भावना, सद्वासना, सदाचार यांनी आपले व्यक्तिगत आणि सामाजिक जीवन अधिकाधिक प्रमाणात भरून टाकीत आहे! नामस्मरण करता करता आपल्याला नक्कीच याचा अनुभव येतो!

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

2. In one of the interviews; a rationalist said
that the discoveries of science should be
used for “good” purpose!
The obvious question; “How to define
what is good?” was however not asked!
The science and technology reduce the
discomfort in every walk of life (excepting
in case of frauds and errors) and thus add
to our comfort and pleasure (though
temporarily). So, the meaning of “good”
for science is; anything that can increase
comforts and pleasures; resulting from
and dependent on material surroundings.
However, is this “good” enough?
Can such a “good” purpose be really good
for the whole mankind and the other
inhabitants of the world? Is the depth of
human life only this much? Is not there
any place for values such as freedom,
unity, harmony, love, tolerance, mutual
3. respect, justice, openness, fearlessness
and so on?
To this question; the science and
technology DO NOT address, though the
“rationalists” do try to voice their (ad hoc
and subjective) views; about what is
“good” and what is “bad”! This is
because; the science and technology were
not adequately applied to address the
human values and the value crises that
produce universal stress! They were
largely restricted to solution of physical
problems.
The religions (and ethics, ideologies,
philosophies and other creative literature)
have addressed this question and tried to
answer it; with some degree of accuracy
and some degree of acceptability, even
though NO written text as such; can guide
the whole mankind completely i.e. in
every issue and at every moment; with
4. hundred per cent accuracy. The answers
provided were largely egalitarian and
driven emotionally without going to the
root of the problems with the use of right
brain! The solutions to human problems
were largely in the form of
commandments for organized, disciplined
and orderly behavior and charity.
The problem of rationalists (driven
predominantly by left cerebral cortex)
and religious (driven predominantly by
right cerebral cortex); is that they do not
have the anatomical and physiological
foundation to understand, grasp and
appreciate the point of the other.
On this background it would be easy to
understand, why even as most of the
solutions to the isolated physical problems
of the mankind; are known to many
people; there is NO motivation and
correct direction to provide solutions!
5. This is often referred to as lack of
political will! Thus there is only high
activity of left brain; with the right brain
being silent.
In contrast; there are many religious
people emotionally charged and
motivated for service (thus engaged in
philanthropic activities), but do not have
correct perspective for solutions; because
of the high activity of right brain; with
left brain being redundant.
Hence from time immemorial there have
been efforts to evolve and unite these two
sides of mankind, through simultaneous;
scientific (rational) and religious
(conscientious); thinking, using both sides
of brain! This is holistic approach to get
the answer to; “What is the definition of
good?” Thus “good” is that; which
rejuvenates, revitalizes, inspires,
empowers, unites, harmonizes, fulfills;
6. and enables every one for self realization
i.e. true freedom, through
NAMASMARAN, (besides other
techniques and ways for self
development)!
Rationality and religions (left and right
brain) are two inevitable and inseparable
parts of our life. The ills and evils present
in each in isolation; can be eradicated
through holistic perspective, thinking,
feelings and actions and blossoming from
inside and outside can be ushered in!
This is exactly what is embodied in the
practice of NAMASMARAN!
