Namasmaran means remembering the name of God, one's guru, or great souls through repetition. It can be done silently, loudly, alone or in a group, with or without counting beads. The practice aims to reunify one's physiological being with one's true self. As remembering one's true self is the culmination of individual consciousness, namasmaran is equivalent to opening the final pathway for consciousness from all activities to unify with cosmic consciousness. Thus, namasmaran is the yoga of all yogas, as it is the ultimate goal of consciousness in every yoga practice or technique.

1. WHAT
IS
NAMASMARAN?
Dr.
Shriniwas
Kashalikar

2. Namasmaran means;
remembering the name of God,
Guru, great souls; such as
prophets and holy objects such
as planets and stars. It may be
remembered silently, loudly,
along with music, dance, along
with breathing, in group or
alone, either with counting by
rosary (called SMARANI or
JAPAMALA) or without
counting. The traditions vary
from region to region and from
religion to religion.

3. However the universal principle
underlying
NAMASMARAN is to reorient
your
physiological being with your
true self. In
fact while reorienting with true
self you aim
to establish and strengthen the
bond or
connection; between; your
physiological
being; with your true self. You
aim at

4. reunification with yourself!
Since remembering your true
self is the
pinnacle of or culmination of
individual
consciousness, and individual
consciousness
is the culmination of every
activity in life,
remembering any name of God
or Guru (any symbol of your
true self) is equivalent to
opening the final common

5. pathway for the individual
consciousness associated with
every possible activity to get
funneled into or unified with
objective or cosmic
consciousness.
Thus NAMASMARAN is in
fact the
YOGA of YOGA in the sense
that it is the
culmination of consciousness
associated with
every possible procedure and
technique in

6. the yoga that you are familiar
with. It is the
YOGA of YOGA because it is
the
culmination of consciousness
associated with
all the activities in the universe,
which it
encompasses as well! It is
YOGA of YOGA
because everybody in the world
irrespective
of his/her tradition and the
beliefs; would

7. eventually, ultimately and
naturally reach it
it; in the process of liberation.
Even so called non believers
also would not “miss” the
“benefit of remembering the
true self
through one symbol or
another”!
Just as NAMASMARAN is
YOGA of YOGA it is
meditation of meditation also! It
is the natural and ultimate

8. climax of every form of
meditation.
These facts however have to be
realized with
persistent practice of
NAMSMARAN and
not blindly believed or blindly
disbelieved
with casual approach!
In short NAMSMARAN is
super-bounty of
cosmic consciousness for every
individual to

9. realize it (cosmic
consciousness)! This is truly a
super-bounty because a person
who
experiences it, rises above
mercenary,
commercial and even
professional and
charity planes and manifest
super-
transactions in his or her life!
These are just few observations
to give rough idea about what is
NAMASMARAN.

10. NAMASMARAN is an ocean
of bliss. Its true meaning is
beyond description in words
and has to b experienced, most
preferably, by billions!
