ART OF IMMORTALITY: DR. SHRINIWAS KASHALIKARBhagavadgeeta implies; “Our turning towards (in acceptance); the Absolute Truth"; by overcoming the enormous dragging by the MOHA i.e. the relative truth (from inside and outside).
This is exactly implied in NAMASMARAN, which is a constant and continuous reaffirmation of the victory of; Absolute Truth over the relative truth, immortality over mortality and infinite over finite. It is an act of victorious celebration (not at all easy; in face of physical pain, incapacitation, old age, poverty, failures, humiliations and all “appearances” that call for disapproval, disgruntlement or point blank protest).
NAMASMARAN thus involves; the offering of everything; “good and bad” in life and its results (and total surrender) by us; the fallible, weak, humble subjectivity, relative truth (SHISHYA); to the infallible, omniscient, omnipresent and omnipotent objectivity, Absolute Truth (GURU); thus gratefully welcoming the cosmic objective desire to manifest (GURUKRUPA); towards universal benevolence and individual fulfillment.
Bhagavadgeeta upholds SWADHARMA i.e. doing every action by inspired by the Absolute Truth; as is the case in NAMASMARAN, which is therefore a choicest and supreme act of assertion.
