It then provides remedies and techniques from Ayurveda, Allopathy, exercise, diet, posture, utilities, morning ablutions, body movements, yoga, massage, homeopathy, and osteopathy to treat neck and back pain holistically. The most important healing principle, according to the author, is to practice mindfulness and get out of the trap of pettiness through daily remembrance of God.
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 necessary for accurate vision, decision making, and successful action. These prayers provide holistic health or self-realization.
Meaning Of Conceptual Stress Dr. Shriniwas Kashalikargauramohan
This document discusses conceptual stress, which is a type of stress caused by intellectual chaos arising from physical, emotional, or other causes. In modern life, the rapid pace of change can shatter our conceptual frameworks as new issues emerge that we cannot understand, leaving us helpless and miserable - this constitutes conceptual stress. Morality, ethics, and traditions from the past are often proving inadequate or irrelevant. Conceptual stress involves defective perceptions, thoughts, emotions, and physical needs associated with abnormal brain activity. It is minimized in those with a self-centered lifestyle but maximized in those with global perspectives who seek solutions to worldwide problems and suffering. Remembering one's true self through namasmaran is suggested as a way to gain clarity and
The document discusses "my problem", which is a struggle within individuals between what is and what should be. This restlessness stems from sensory input not matching feelings of wants and deficiencies. "My problem" is a global issue, as it is difficult to voluntarily blossom into generous, loving, and benevolent qualities. Punishment and force cannot transform individuals, only creating a holistic environment through globally beneficial policies and practices can help with blossoming. However, even this is not possible without considering everyone through tolerance, as "my problem" is also "your problem" - it is universal. The only way to address this is through the universal practice of Namasmaran.
Mauna (Silence) & Superliving Dr Shriniwas Kashalikargauramohan
This document discusses the benefits of silence based on teachings from ancient Sanskrit texts. It provides several reasons why silence is recommended during certain activities like defecation, urination, sexual intercourse, bleeding, cleaning teeth, and eating. Silence allows one to focus on internal processes and avoid external distractions. It can also help maintain a calm atmosphere. More broadly, learning to be silent helps achieve a state of inner peace and harmony while also observing the constant interplay of thoughts and connections to the universe. Silence has practical benefits too, as inappropriate speech can lead to problems while ability to remain silent is extremely advantageous.
Unconditoned Happiness Dr. Shriniwas K Ashalikargauramohan
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.
Dr. Shriniwas Kashalikar shares his experiences studying the Bhagavad Gita over 20 years. Initially, he was put off by perceived contradictions in the text and an individualistic message. Through persistent study and reflection, he realized the Gita deals with an individual's relationship to existence, the universe, time, and cosmic consciousness. It provides guidance for different stages of human development. While not a blueprint, the Gita inspires a universal vision of blossoming for all. Studying opened him to new understandings of its empowering message of unconditioned acceptance and working in harmony with nature.

Breast cancer: Post menopausal endocrine therapyDr. Sumit KUMAR
Breast cancer in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) status is a common and complex condition that necessitates a multifaceted approach to management. HR+ breast cancer means that the cancer cells grow in response to hormones such as estrogen and progesterone. This subtype is prevalent among postmenopausal women and typically exhibits a more indolent course compared to other forms of breast cancer, which allows for a variety of treatment options.
Diagnosis and Staging
The diagnosis of HR+ breast cancer begins with clinical evaluation, imaging, and biopsy. Imaging modalities such as mammography, ultrasound, and MRI help in assessing the extent of the disease. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical staining of the biopsy sample confirm the diagnosis and hormone receptor status by identifying the presence of estrogen receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) on the tumor cells.
Staging involves determining the size of the tumor (T), the involvement of regional lymph nodes (N), and the presence of distant metastasis (M). The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system is commonly used. Accurate staging is critical as it guides treatment decisions.
Treatment Options
Endocrine Therapy
Endocrine therapy is the cornerstone of treatment for HR+ breast cancer in postmenopausal women. The primary goal is to reduce the levels of estrogen or block its effects on cancer cells. Commonly used agents include:
Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs): Tamoxifen is a SERM that binds to estrogen receptors, blocking estrogen from stimulating breast cancer cells. It is effective but may have side effects such as increased risk of endometrial cancer and thromboembolic events.
Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs): These drugs, including anastrozole, letrozole, and exemestane, lower estrogen levels by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, which converts androgens to estrogen in peripheral tissues. AIs are generally preferred in postmenopausal women due to their efficacy and safety profile compared to tamoxifen.
Selective Estrogen Receptor Downregulators (SERDs): Fulvestrant is a SERD that degrades estrogen receptors and is used in cases where resistance to other endocrine therapies develops.
Combination Therapies
Combining endocrine therapy with other treatments enhances efficacy. Examples include:
Endocrine Therapy with CDK4/6 Inhibitors: Palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib are CDK4/6 inhibitors that, when combined with endocrine therapy, significantly improve progression-free survival in advanced HR+ breast cancer.
Endocrine Therapy with mTOR Inhibitors: Everolimus, an mTOR inhibitor, can be added to endocrine therapy for patients who have developed resistance to aromatase inhibitors.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is generally reserved for patients with high-risk features, such as large tumor size, high-grade histology, or extensive lymph node involvement. Regimens often include anthracyclines and taxanes.

PGx Analysis in VarSeq: A User’s PerspectiveGolden Helix
Since our release of the PGx capabilities in VarSeq, we’ve had a few months to gather some insights from various use cases. Some users approach PGx workflows by means of array genotyping or what seems to be a growing trend of adding the star allele calling to the existing NGS pipeline for whole genome data. Luckily, both approaches are supported with the VarSeq software platform. The genotyping method being used will also dictate what the scope of the tertiary analysis will be. For example, are your PGx reports a standalone pipeline or would your lab’s goal be to handle a dual-purpose workflow and report on PGx + Diagnostic findings.
The purpose of this webcast is to:
Discuss and demonstrate the approaches with array and NGS genotyping methods for star allele calling to prep for downstream analysis.
Following genotyping, explore alternative tertiary workflow concepts in VarSeq to handle PGx reporting.
Moreover, we will include insights users will need to consider when validating their PGx workflow for all possible star alleles and options you have for automating your PGx analysis for large number of samples. Please join us for a session dedicated to the application of star allele genotyping and subsequent PGx workflows in our VarSeq software.
5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
It is hypothesised to regulate hunger, emotions, motor, cognitive, and autonomic processes.

This project contributes to the growing body of research aimed at harnessing nanotechnology for medical applications, paving the way for future clinical trials and potential commercial applications.
Cancer remains one of the leading causes of death worldwide, prompting the need for innovative treatment methods. Nanotechnology offers promising new approaches, including the use of gold nanoparticles (nanogold) for targeted cancer therapy. Nanogold particles possess unique physical and chemical properties that make them suitable for drug delivery, imaging, and photothermal therapy.
The biomechanics of running involves the study of the mechanical principles underlying running movements. It includes the analysis of the running gait cycle, which consists of the stance phase (foot contact to push-off) and the swing phase (foot lift-off to next contact). Key aspects include kinematics (joint angles and movements, stride length and frequency) and kinetics (forces involved in running, including ground reaction and muscle forces). Understanding these factors helps in improving running performance, optimizing technique, and preventing injuries.

Victory Over Neck And Back Pain Dr Shriniwas Kashalikar
1. VICTORY
OVER
NECK AND BACK
PAIN
BY
DR. SHRINIWAS
JANARDAN
KASHALIKAR
2. INTRODUCTION
I had following and many questions in
my mind, about ailments and healing.
Would I like to keep ailing like many
others are?
Would I like to go from doctor to
doctor belonging to different systems
of medicine as others are?
Would I like to go through a vicious
chain or cycle of expensive
investigations and subsequent
admonition [without any guarantee of
health and happiness] as many of us
are forced to go through?
3. Would I like to spend exorbitant
money on treatment, as many have to
spend?
Would I like to be eternally dependent
on medical professionals belonging to
some or other particular system of
medicine or a healer of some kind or
other as many of us depending?
Would I like to live in the threatening
shadow of disease and death forever as
many others are living?
The answer was a big NO.
This was probably why; I, as a medical
student and later as a
medical professional; kept on working
on this issue and realized;
that all medical systems of are part of
one single PATH OF HEALING. In
4. fact in the course of time I realized
that all the fields
of knowledge and art, could contribute
to the health or disease of an
individual and society. This is the
concept of HOLISTIC
MEDICINE.
But what was the HOLISTIC
MEDICINE expected to do?
Was it to impart only physical health?
No. So-called health, which
is determined by and endorsed by
laboratory and other
investigations, considers only physical
well being. But physical
well-being is not at all a true indicator
of health. A person cannot be judged
in the same way as we judge a statue.
A person is judged by his or her
5. actions. The actions in turn spring
from one’s
instincts, emotions, thoughts and
perspective.
HOLISTIC HEALTH therefore is
nothing else but a process of acquiring
the perspective of global welfare,
policies and plans and commitment to
these and
coordinated and concerted efforts of
experts in that direction from different
walks of life! Holistic Medicine is
understanding and practicing the
wisdom in their respective fields, for
the well being of one and all is the key
to HOLISTIC HEALTH which I call
TOTAL STRESS MANAGEMENT
also.
This small book is a humble effort in
that direction.
6. Precautions:
1. In this book you will find a variety
of remedies. It is important to be
aware of the legislations involved in
the use of the different
remedies.
2. It is quite possible that concurrent
use some of these remedies may not be
acceptable to some medical
practitioners.
3. It is also true that I do not have
clinical trials to quote;
for some of these remedies.
4. The quality of a particular
product is something I cannot vouch
on at all.
5. Some of the remedies may require
doctor’s prescription.
7. 6. Some of the YOGASANAs or other
procedures/endeavors may require
expert guidance.
7. It is also important to note that we
are different individuals with
different constitutions. We are of
different age groups and genders.
We may vary in terms of different
physiological conditions such as
pregnancy, menstruation and
lactation. These variable factors alter
the efficacy and safety of medications
and practice of yogasanas or exercises.
8. The ailment may have
different causes and the stage of the
ailment may also vary.
9. We may have different histories of
past and family illnesses.
10. These different considerations may
limit the utility of this book.
8. However this book would surely
provide you, with new options for
substantial improvement in your
HOLISTIC HEALTH irrespective
of whether you belong to a non-
medical or a medical profession.

One could find many more techniques

difficulties and the agonies produced
by them.
