STRESS OF DISEASES: DR. SHRINIWAS KASHALIKARHow to overcome the stress of diseases?
During our medical student days we read and learned extensively about the symptoms, signs, investigations and treatment of various diseases. We also learned about prevention of diseases. We read slogans like “health for all by 2000” and so on.
But we continue to observe diseases, debility and disability.
In fact; due to the information explosion, we read and see dreadful aspects of diseases and become miserably concerned stressed about physical health.
Our stress is further intensified by contradictory information and health tips given in print and electronic media! We are often agonized by questions such as “Why did I get this disease, even when I never did such and such a thing?” or we become guilt ridden by thoughts such as; “Why did I do that thing and got into this trouble?”
But let us not despair!
We have immeasurable and infinite storehouse of vitality inside us, which is not described or highlighted in media. Hence; this immense storehouse of globally benevolent potential within us escapes our attention and we assume ourselves to be fickle, frail and fragile.
The best way to overcome the stress of diseases; is to realize this globally benevolent eternal light within us; and begin to express it to the best of our capacity. The diseases will come and go. But we would never be shattered.
How to realize and express this innate and universally beneficial power?
The answer is; NAMASMARAN!
We have to practice NAMASMARAN; and further; propagate its universal benevolence; which enables and empowers everyone; to live symbiotically and triumphantly; in any given field and in any given circumstance.
