SPIRITUAL INFRASTRUCTURE: DR. SHRINIWAS KASHALIKAR

Roads, bridges, railway, electricity, telecommunication; etc. constitute economic infrastructure; and play an important role in progress.

But the health care facilities, housing, drinking water, schools; etc, which constitute social infrastructure; have to go hand in hand; with the development of economic infrastructure.

But if the members of a social group harbor; a perspective, ideology, thinking, feeling, motivation and behavior; of fanatic, sectarian and individualistic development; then it can be counterproductive and destructive to the individual, the social group; as well as mankind!

Hence along with the economic and social infrastructure; it is essential to work; on the spiritual infrastructure; simultaneously. We can appreciate this point; if we carefully observe; the QUALITY/CONTENTMENT/FULFILLMENT of individual and social life; in any part of the world; including the developed countries.

The spiritual infrastructure can be developed if there is a simple and inexpensive program that can be practicable to different ideologies and religions. One such program is; remembering and reorienting to ones true self; called JAP, JAAP, JIKRA, SUMIRAN, SIMARAN i.e. NAMASMARAN; and can be introduced in every nook and corner of the world and to everyone irrespective of age, sex, occupation, religion, race, nationality etc.
