The title is repeated!
The understanding of NAMASMARAN also goes
on renovating and rebuilding itself but with
newer dimensions!
Understanding and experience of
NAMASMARAN go on becoming multi-colorful,
sweeter, melodious and rhythmic! The ecstatic
feeling of NAMASMARAN becomes
overwhelming and inspires one to share it with
others! Understanding, experience, feeling go on
becoming deeper and deeper and get percolated
in every system in the body. NAMASMARAN
gradually becomes a core of our total personality
and controlling center of our behavior.
In fact; “We” become secondary and NAMA and
its understanding occupy the supreme position
within us!
3. It is true that even if we started
NAMASMARAN with some expectations or
some wants, gradually they become redundant.
In fact through NAMASMARAN we not only go
beyond the selfish motives, and expectations, but
experience eternal and vital relationship between
our GURU and us. In other words, this is a
relationship between our objective or cosmic self
and our subjective self.
At one point in time, NAMASMARAN appeared
to me to be a process of liberation that would
directly lead to purification of minds and
blossoming of instincts, emotions, intelligence
and perspective; and lead to predictable social
progress.
Now also I feel that NAMASMARAN would lead
to social changes, but probably not as
predictably and as simplistically as they are
mentioned in my books.
4. More over, now I think; cosmic consciousness
expresses Himself through progressively
blossoming enlightenment and the associated
practice and preaching of NAMASMARAN,
(through the chosen ones such as saints, prophets
etc.) which in turn guide and motivate millions of
people towards NAMASMARAN and
blossoming of their instincts, emotions,
intelligence and perspective! This repeats itself
from time to time in different parts of the world.
GURU therefore is cosmic consciousness; and
His expression from time to time, may vary in
external appearance and language and/or
semantics. The disciples also may vary in terms
of where they come from and which background
they belong to. This relationship of a particular
manifestation of a GURU and a particular
disciple is determined by the associations in past
lives. The cosmic consciousness is eternal and the
Darwinian evolution and enlightenment of an
individual consciousness are contingents in this.
5. NAMASMARAN is an objective door to the
cosmic consciousness that transcends the
dimension of time. This door is created by the
cosmic consciousness Himself; through great
sages and seers; from time immemorial, through
their practice of NAMASMARAN. This is
referred to as making a NAAM; SIDDHA. Hence
it is said that NAAM given by a GURU has
immense significance and importance. The
NAMA given by GURU is a “valid passport” to
enter the cosmic consciousness.
The usual error that one is likely to commit is the
error of assuming that “my activity” of
NAMASMARAN would yield results. Actually I
tend to forget that the cosmic consciousness
GURU Himself is getting that NAMASMARAN
done through me. Everything including global
revolutions or universal cataclysms; are
contingents including obviously; “my activity” of
NAMASMARAN! NAMASMARAN is a golden
opportunity to get merged with the cosmic
6. consciousness endowed by the cosmic
consciousness GURU. Therefore it is said that we
should practice NAMASMARAN for the sake of
it, itself; only. The idea of “my activity” of
NAMASMARAN is totally false; and hence the
subsequent expectations of the results are also
totally baseless, irrational and incorrect.
This explains how NAMASMARAN constitutes
the essence of GITA.
It is true that NAMASMARAN appears to be
restricted to the lips, mouth and vocal apparatus
and hence there can be doubt about the potential
of the NAMASMARAN to liberate one and all!
But once we understand that NAMSMARAN is a
golden opportunity to merge with the cosmic
consciousness provided by cosmic consciousness
Himself, and all the revolutions which once
envisaged are written on the walls, then we get
freed from the burden of “doing” it and happily
grab the opportunity with both hands, with
