ETERNAL CONFLICTS

DR. SHRINIWAS KASHALIKAR


The object of our reverence and respect keeps on changing. It goes on vacillating between petty selfishness and the noble heartedness.

We crave for petty material pursuits and also “cry” for justice!

We fight for mean gains and we “long” for unity!

We preach nonviolence and we prostrate in front of hooligans.

We profess against child labor and we deny productive education to billions.

We worship saints and simplicity and we adore glamour, glitter and voluptuousness.

We say health is wealth and the “healthy” ones do not manifest healthy feelings, thoughts, perspectives, plans, policies and actions and keep perpetually exploiting and chasing “D grade” crude pleasures!

We call ourselves spiritual and stoop in front material power and escape from the challenges!

We promote ourselves as health care providers; but we ourselves are victims of the disease of meanness! We are blind to enlightenment, paralyzed to support justice, moribund to rise against injustice, deaf and dumb to assert our innate selfless wisdom!

We have to keep on acquiring and manifesting healthy feelings, thoughts, perspectives, plans, policies and actions and ride over the conflicts; even as they would continue to erupt and bother us! The traditional measure to be taken by billions of people from different backgrounds; is NAMASMARAN.
