NAMAVIJAY25: DR SHRINIWAS KASHALIKAR

Is there any problem with the world?

Apparently there is a problem; in terms of lack of unity and harmony! But this problem is very much there inside us as well!

We have no unity and harmony inside us!

There is a chaos and cacophony inside; going on for ages!

We think there is no love, compassion, justice and so on; in the world. But there is no love, compassion and justice within us as well!

This can be proved, if we consider the anger, hatred, jealousy, ruthlessness, callousness, guilt, revengefulness, anxiety, restlessness, fear and so on; inside us; and which harm us!

Hence the enlightened people from all over the world advocate a holistic approach! They prescribe an action that can heal us from within; by purifying us of the above said harmful elements; and thereby enable us to create an environment (through holistic perspective, policies, plans, programs and their implementation) conducive to such healing in the society.

The action advocated by this enlightening wisdom spread all over the world, is called NAMASMARAN, JIKRA, SIMARAN, SUMIRAN, JAP, JAAP and so on! This action is simple and universal. It actually implies reorientation to our innate core, realization of the true self and release of the pure nectar from there that heals us as well as the whole world as stated above!

Since this wisdom has originated from the ultimate truth viz. NAMA (and not matter, energy, space and time) and descended through different persons; this process of global enlightenment is; victory (VIJAY) of NAMA i.e. NAMAVIJAY!

NAMAVIJAY2: DR. SHRINIWAS JANARDAN KASHALIKAR

When I get up in the morning, the stiffness of the body and weakness of mind make me miserable. I yearn for physical care and mental pep up!

Remembrance of NAMA, though not easy and spontaneous; connects me to the reservoir of the eternal energy! I realize that expectation of physical care or pep talk; for my petty self is not truly remedial. It is actually counterproductive as these temporary and superficial measures make me weaker and dependent.

In spite of my indolence; someone pulls me out of it and connects me with NAMA! Who is He? He is the omniscient, omnipotent and omnipresent ocean of bliss deep within i.e. my Guru i.e. NAMA itself! Thus; my being associated with this empowering remembrance of NAMA; is not my victory (VIJAY); but it is the grace and victory (VIJAY) of NAMA (Guru) itself!
Hence this is NAMAVIJAY!

NAMAVIJAY-4: DR. SHRINIWAS JANARDAN KASHALIKAR

It happened about 15-20 years back when I was about 45. I had no practice of hiking and trekking. But I had ventured to climb Harishchandragad along with my students. Even though it took almost a whole day, I somehow managed to climb it!

But the next day; when I was climbing down a rock, which was steep like a wall; on the way I started becoming nervous and diffident! In fact there was no support whatsoever; and hence it was frightening! At a certain point; my legs began to tremble!

The 4000 ft deep valley in front of me was staring at me as if to swallow me! There was nobody to help! I could not ask anyone to give me a hand of help; as that would imply that person committing suicide with me! Ironical it may appear; but in spite of being a person from modern medical profession and high tech society (of which we are so proud about); there was no possibility of any help whatsoever! I was frozen with fear and developed cold feet! There was nothing to hold on to. I was left completely helpless to do anything to save my life.

Being totally helpless; I was forced to prepare myself for death! I began to see that all my family and kin and kith were to be left behind and I was to be dissolved in nothingness! For me; everything seemed finished!

At this point; suddenly a thought sprang in my mind from the eternal source of universe i.e. NAMA (Guru)! “Even if everything is perished, NAMA would not perish! It would continue to enliven the universe eternally!”

NAMASMARAN literally took charge of my being without any control mine; over it! Soon I did not realize how like a waft of wind; I swiftly reached the bottom of the rock!

Was this my achievement? Was this my victory? Some may argue that this was will power! But frankly speaking; this “power of will” was not accessible to me at “my will”! I was miserably helpless!

This incidence highlights the supremacy of NAMA in universe and in our otherwise mortal and feeble life! This is an example of the victory (VIJAY) of the omnipresent, omniscient and omnipotent NAMA (Guru); which I call NAMAVIJAY!

NAMAVIJAY-6: DR. SHRINIWAS JANARDAN KASHALIKAR

NAMAVIJAY is an exciting experience that NAMA is always looking after me, caring for and nurturing me; and in fact; the whole universe, like mother!
NAMAVIJAY is being in spell of NAMA! As NAMA is the constant and unending and ultimate source of the nectar of love, care, nourishment and empowerment; and hence immortality; this spell endows a kind of constancy to me amidst the innumerable and disturbing ups and downs in life!

This can be said to be the most fulfilling dawn of global welfare in one’s heart!
It is a kind of experience I feel like trying to capture in words and reiterate and consolidate it! I feel like dwelling on it! It is rejuvenating and revitalizing! It is consoling as well as fulfilling!

It is beyond words! But it is extremely reassuring! It is liberating! I feel like re-living it again and again! It is a pleasant and abstract phenomenon and it is deep inside! It is there inside but cannot be located or pinpointed! It is; as if; it has engulfed me! But I am unable to see, hear, smell, taste or feel it in any way and identify it! I am unable to articulate it!

It is like oxygen for an individual in asphyxia. It is like a final destination of rest, but without the element of fatigue or indolence! It is nectar of timeless immortality amidst the stress of irresistible passage of time! It is an experience of the power amidst the frailty! It is the experience of vitality amidst the inborn inertia!

NAMAVIJAY is a process, in which the victorious immortal bliss (NAMA) eternally and irresistibly pulls us; from our peripheral place towards its central, supreme and controlling position (VIJAY)! In other words; the omnipotent, omniscient and omnipresent (NAMA), absorbs us from our finite, mortal and helpless state into its infinite, immortal and potent state (VIJAY)!
Is this experience worth its pursuit?

There is no question whether it is worth or not! There is no option! It is inevitable and unavoidable; only the time course and the nature of the process i.e. the experiences vary! Individuals, families, places, organizations, people, and even nations and continents are brought under its spell in an unimaginable, unprecedented and inexplicable manner from time to time!

This unifying, harmonizing ennobling universal phenomenon is cosmic homeostasis! It is also called Holistic Evolution, Holistic Renaissance, Total Stress Management, Total Well Being, Holistic Health, Global Welfare and SUPERLIVING!

All this; is an overt manifestations of the victory (VIJAY) of NAMA and we call it NAMAVIJAY!

NAMAVIJAY8: DR. SHRINIWAS KASHALIKAR

What is my goal?

Pursuing a particular technical, academic, commercial or artistic career, earning money, acquiring power or fame etc; can be short term or even long term objectives. Pursuing a particular hobby can also be an objective.

But none of these constitute my goal. Goal is something that I value most!

Goal is that one, to which I give top most priority! Goal is that, for which I can keep aside the thought of everything mentioned above! Goal is that something; beyond which there nothing to achieve!

My goal got crystallized in the course of my study and practice of NAMASMARAN! Gradually I realized that the highest goal of human life; described as self realization, liberation, ultimate freedom, nirvana or actual experience of immortality etc; in philosophical literature; is the same as being increasingly and lovingly involved in NAMASMARAN! I realized that being one with NAMA is my singular goal and being in NAMASMARAN is my top priority!

However; this pleasant realization of my goal and my priority; is not my achievement!

Actually this achievement; in spite of my utter handicap in every possible manner; is the victory (VIJAY) of NAMA! This is NAMAVIJAY!
