The document discusses reflections and creations, and how they can provide both pleasure and horror. It notes that people commonly enjoy watching their mirror image and receiving compliments, and performers enjoy audiences' applause. Creations like successful surgeries or films can also boost those who made them. However, sometimes reflections and creations show horrifying failures, which an abstract thinker working to help the world may face in lack of or distorted reflections and creations. The document poses whether namasmāran, or remembrance of the divine name, could help such people, suggesting it is worth trying.
The document discusses whether an individual or organization that does not participate in a political freedom movement led by another group can be considered antinational. It provides several examples of individuals who may not have participated in political freedom struggles, including artists, scientists, government workers, and those focused on other social reforms. It argues that after 62 years of independence, it is important to move past judgments of others' viewpoints and actions during the freedom struggle, and instead focus on a shared vision of prosperity and equality for all.
Education & Stress Dr. Shriniwas Kashalikartgranganathan
1) The current education system fails to properly develop students' cognitive, affective, and psychomotor domains. It focuses too heavily on rote learning and lacks practical application.
2) Traditional education had merits like ensuring careers benefited society and families, but transitioned poorly by not preserving these merits.
3) A new holistic education model is proposed that incorporates production, service, physical activity, personality development and entertainment to nurture all student development domains.
Holistic Approach To Saving Energy Dr Shriiwas Kashalikartgranganathan
The document discusses holistic approaches to saving energy through lifestyle changes and namasmarn, or remembering the name of God. It provides several suggestions for saving energy like switching off electronics when not in use, using stairs instead of elevators, and walking more. Namasmarn is described as a meditation practice that helps unify one's physiological self with their true self through remembering God or a guru. Regular practice of namasmarn is suggested to realize its benefits of rising above worldly concerns and manifesting positive transactions in one's life. The document encourages generating new ideas for promoting health, welfare, and sustainable energy use.

This document outlines the possible health benefits of walking according to Dr. Shriniwas Kashalikar. Walking can help cleanse the skin through sweating, activate the cardiovascular and respiratory systems, tone the digestive system to relieve issues like gas and constipation, relieve joint pains and arthritis as well as back aches, and provide vitamin D through sunlight exposure. It can also save on electricity and fuel costs while allowing for practices like silence, avoidance of gossip, and prevention of infection when using elevators.

Mahatma Gandhi had a profound vision of universal progress that he translated into sociopolitical programs and activities with near complete fidelity, acceptability, and feasibility for the welfare of people worldwide. Few people have both a vision of universal progress and undertake great efforts for mankind's welfare like Gandhi. Very few are aware that Gandhi steadfastly practiced NAMASMARAN. Today we need exact translations of universal philosophies, visions, and plans into various fields at all levels as Gandhi did.
Diabetes Discussion Dr. Shriniwas Kashalikartgranganathan
Dr. Shrinivas Kashalikar raises several questions about diabetes diagnosis and treatment:
1. He asks why intracellular glucose levels are not measured instead of plasma glucose levels, and how intracellular levels correlate with plasma levels.
2. He questions whether high blood glucose could cause intracellular glucose starvation due to defective utilization.
3. He also asks if reducing carbohydrates and fat would disproportionately increase protein intake, and if that could harm the kidneys.
4. Finally, he inquires about the effects of variable absorption and excretion on blood glucose, the impact of energy output changes, and why stress management and Ayurvedic remedies are not more widely studied and used for diabetes.
Super Happiness Dr. Shriniwas Kashalikartgranganathan
1) The document discusses that one's perceptions, feelings, and behaviors are responsible for their level of happiness.
2) It states that most people are unaware of how their actions impact their happiness and impose judgments on others.
3) However, some people realize the merits and demerits of their behaviors and seek guidance to evolve. Following the teachings of enlightened beings like saints and sages provides a path to "SUPER HAPPINESS".

Namasmaran, or remembering the name of God, is a practice that helps connect an individual to their true self and blossom into their cosmic self over time.
It provides benefits like integrating one's thoughts, feelings and actions, cementing relationships, and bringing spiritualism into daily life.
Namasmaran is described as a "panacea" and "objective phenomenon" that can benefit people of all backgrounds equally, like how oxygen benefits all human life. It is a means of realizing one's maximum potential.

The document discusses how to live in harmony when personal needs and greeds often cause conflicts of interest. It questions how to overcome needs and greeds, if harmony is worth achieving without satisfying needs, and if preaching harmony through asceticism makes sense. The document argues that a smooth transition from needs to fulfillment, where a culture takes care of all living beings' needs, is the hallmark of an evolved culture and true harmony. Regular remembrance of God's name through NAMASMARAN can help achieve this harmony.
This document discusses the concept of rebirth. It argues that while our bodies are constantly changing as cells die and are replaced, our consciousness and identity remain constant. Rebirth is seen in some historical figures who exhibited memories and identities from past lives. However, rebirth cannot be scientifically proven since consciousness cannot be clearly defined or identified as a separate entity from the body.

The document discusses the principles of yoga. It states that there are three components to human response - cognition, affect, and conation. The final stage of yoga is the union of these three components. A highly evolved yogi would be seen as sensing, feeling, and responding beyond normal human capacities in an impeccable and exuberantly benevolent way for the universe. This era is unique because remembering God's name as inspired by a guru ensures the process and progress of yoga.
The document discusses the agony caused by pain, sorrow, conflict, feelings of absurdity, and the awareness of impermanence. These dark forces can take control of anyone regardless of their status and make them miserable. While chanting names of God (Namasmarn) is said to be the solution, the author admits they have not yet experienced freedom from these dark forces or the envisioned "SUPERJOY." The author proposes that if billions of people practice Namasmarn together, it may lead to experiencing this SUPERJOY.

Dr. Shriniwas Janardan Kashalikar discusses his study of the Bhagavad Gita in 4 sentences. Initially, he was put off by references to war in the first chapter but kept reading out of curiosity. Over time, he came to understand that the Gita deals with the individual existence and stages of human development. While he initially thought the Gita was only about individual emancipation, he now realizes it can guide social welfare by inspiring the creation of a universal blueprint for human blossoming. His perspectives changed as he overcame hurdles like expectations of a specific social blueprint and came to see the Gita addresses both the individual and social levels in a holistic way.

Nishkama karma, or action without attachment to results, is a concept in the Bhagavad Gita. While it seems impossible to act without thinking of results, subtle actions like thinking and feelings cannot be defined by their physical causes and effects. As actions evolve, they become less crude and more cosmic in nature, with results that cannot be quantified. The highest form of action is namasmāran, or remembering God, as it merges subjectivity and objectivity such that ownership of actions and results ceases. Namasmāran is widely practiced in religions and can help emancipate oneself and others.
N E G A T I N G N A M A S M A R A N D Rtgranganathan
The document discusses the author's changing views on namasmaran (remembrance of God). Initially, the author saw namasmaran as an "escapism" that made people helpless and avoided challenges. Through reading, experiences with service, and intellectual discussions, the author became convinced namasmaran could evolve individuals and society by developing objective perspective. However, the author acknowledges they have no proof of namasmaran's effects or its connection to cosmic consciousness. All experiences with namasmaran are personal and its benefits cannot be proven or disproven through communication.

Yoga is discussed by many scholars but often drifts from common people's lives, either becoming an ascetic practice or just physical exercises. Yoga is actually an art of managing one's life like riding a horse. Indian society was damaged by past forces like regimentation and individualism, so it is important to re-explore scriptural wisdom through the simultaneous practice of yoga, which involves reorienting oneself for individual and universal blossoming through purification. The simplest way to revitalize mainstream lifestyle through yoga is through the practice of NAMASMARAN.
Yoga is conceived in many ways and is a connection between one's global perspective, thoughts, emotions, and actions in every sphere of life. It also connects metabolic, endocrine, autonomic, and central nervous system activities as well as the right and left cerebral cortex. This yoga can be achieved through NAMASMARAN, as one can verify.
Yoga integrates the right and left cerebral cortex, or right and left brain. The inability to see unity across different fields and paths is due to a deficiency in developing and integrating the right and left brain, leading to sectarianism and injustice. Even an intelligent person can be antisocial without balancing left brain development with right brain integration.
Yoga and superjoy can lead to a union at physical, emotional, intellectual, and spiritual levels that overcomes differences and disputes. The highest union is a spiritual one between a true guru and disciple through namasmarn, or remembrance of God. This spiritual union can dissolve contradictions like theism and atheism, and is what the universe needs to encompass all differences.
1) Prayer is meant to catalyze the culmination of any work in complete satisfaction and global welfare.
2) The essence of worshipping Lord Ganesha is that he represents the experience of enlightenment and cosmic oneness with one's inner and outer environment.
3) It is customary to pray to Lord Ganesha before starting any work because realizing truth is important for accurate vision, decision making, and successful action. These prayers provide holistic health or self-realization.
Namasmran, or remembering God, is a simple practice that can have benevolent and emancipating effects on both individuals and the environment. While some theories blame issues like poverty, oppression, or biological drives for individual and social problems, these explanations are only partially accurate and can breed hatred. Alternatively, theories that blame individual frailty are also imperfect and can lead to self-abnegation. Namasmran has no proof of its impacts but billions already practice it without knowing its name, and if more engaged in it, blossoming of individuals and the world would be inevitable.

The document discusses why holistic medicine is important. It notes that people have experienced the benefits of treatments like yoga, Ayurveda, and allopathy. More importantly, it is realized that different modalities of treatment, even those not considered formal treatments like music and clothing, work together in complementary and synergistic ways. Since the overall purpose of medicine is to promote holistic health, eradicate disease, and reduce misery, skills and knowledge from all areas including science, technology, commerce, art, politics, and philosophy should be combined to achieve this goal.
Zero is an important mathematical concept that gives meaning and structure but its existence is complex. Zero represents nothingness or absence, but nothingness cannot truly exist on its own - zero only has meaning in relation to other entities like time, space, and an observer. The concept of zero has paradoxically led to ideas of endings and death, though its origins and nature remain uncertain and indeterminate. This document explores the philosophical questions around the concept of zero.

World Famous Prayer Interpretation By Drtgranganathan
[1] This prayer seeks happiness, health, and well-being for all, with no grief.
[2] While some object to prayer seeing it as weakness, the author explains prayers help connect to infinite cosmic powers and remove "blocks" like ego that develop in humans.
[3] Prayers and chanting help reconnect us to the empowering source of consciousness and remove feelings of isolation, reestablishing our link to the greater whole, like leaves reconnecting to the roots of the tree.
Namasmaran means remembering the name of God, gurus, or great souls through repetition, which can be done silently, loudly, alone or in a group. It is a way to reunite one's physiological self with their true self. By remembering their true self through symbols like God's name, one opens themselves to connecting with cosmic consciousness. Thus, Namasmaran is considered the culmination or "yoga of yogas" as it can unite an individual with objective reality through any religious or spiritual practice involving remembrance. It is a means to transcend worldly concerns and experience bliss by realizing one's connection to the cosmic.
Anusandhan is a state of being connected to one's true self, which traditions identify as God as inspired by the Guru. This state has surpassed subjective prejudices and is associated solely with global welfare. It has no petty pursuits or mean considerations, and is an objective state that has a benevolent effect of facilitating freedom for the entire universe. Anusandhan can also be considered the state of ultimate freedom in the truest sense.
The Vishnu Sahasranam is a famous hymn from the Mahabharata containing around 1,000 names of Lord Vishnu. These names are descriptive terms that provide insight into existence, the true self, the universe, cosmic consciousness, and their dynamic interactions. Those who learn the Vishnu Sahasranam may not understand it initially but will gradually blossom and appreciate its enlightening insights as they gain more life experiences.
Physical health is indicated by attributes like strength, coordination, posture, and endurance. In aging populations, good memory, senses, sleep, mood, and skin are also indicators. However, the most important sign of wellbeing is being connected to one's true or cosmic self through a process called anusandhan. This state appears to have a benevolent, enlightening effect on the universe. Whether the practice of namasmaran can help achieve this mental state of objective wellbeing is for readers to experience.

The document discusses the idea of value-based education and some issues with its implementation. It notes that (1) societal and global values outside of any education system still influence students and educators, and (2) celebrities and media hype shape popular values focused on individualism and superficiality. It also points out that (3) the value systems that influence legal frameworks and (4) the resulting laws and legal systems then shape common beliefs and interactions. The document argues that effectively teaching values requires (5) reconnecting with our "true self" through practices like Namasmaran meditation, otherwise values education risks being ineffective and arbitrary.

The document discusses the state of unconditioned happiness exemplified by saints. It clarifies that this state is not one of depression, surrender, or indifference, but rather a "videhi awasthaa" state where one has risen above perceptions and bodily influences. In this state, the individual appears unaffected but can interact with situations in trans-physical, trans-physiological, and trans-psychological ways through speech, action, or mystical means. The unconditioned happiness of this evolved state of consciousness is infinite, subtle, and not a result of indolence or ignorance.
The document discusses three main points about spiritualism and the practice of namasmaran.
The first point is that forgetting yourself in memory of God through namasmaran helps free you from obsessive thoughts and feelings about yourself. The second point is that renouncing relationships through namasmaran allows you to see relationships more objectively over time. The third point is that different philosophical perspectives can be harsh, so it is important to ask questions, seek answers through one's own experiences, and verify answers through sadhana like namasmaran with patience.
Through practices like NAMASMARAN (chanting names), individuals can realize universal unity and harmony, leading to bliss. This realization shows the top priority of training children and adults in practical skills like first aid, farming, and martial arts to empower problem solving and achieve individual and global prosperity.
