BEING NISHKAMA: DR. SHRINIWAS KASHALIKAR
Being NISHKAMA appears to be painful, as we are usually under the impression that presence of KAMA and fulfillment of KAMA are the integral to life and life without KAMA and fulfillment of KAMA is actually vanity.
Knowingly or unknowingly we are repeatedly dragged in painful pessimism because of the triviality of our individuality and its utterly unnoticeable achievements in personal or social life; from the state of excitement and arrogance in our petty success! Strangely, neither we are freed from the desires nor are we satisfied by the fulfillment of the desires!
However; in the course of time; NAMASMARAN i.e. remembering NAMA is automatically associated with the fulfilling appreciation of the universal, eternal and victorious benevolence of NAMA! This fulfilling appreciation is so powerful that our desires and expectations i.e. KAMA, which are usually associated with our trivial activities, literally get dissolved in it! This is called VAIRAGYA SHRIMANTI or VAIRAGYA VAIBHAV, which means supreme richness of being NISHKAMA or being completely selflessness! This is why, the key to individual and universal blossoming, is NAMASMARAN!

MYSTERY OF DEVOTION: DR. SHRINIWAS KASHALIKAR
We are often desperate to spread our conviction about NAMA and NAMASMARAN!
Why is this so?
This is because, even as we are convinced for years together that NAMASMARAN is the key to individual and universal blossoming, we do not have the experience of 1) the continuous universal grace of NAMA, 2) the ecstatic romance involved in NAMASMARAN and 3) most importantly its supreme and pivotal role in individual and universal blossoming.
But at some point in time, we get; 1) the glimpse of the universal grace of NAMA, 2) the ecstatic romance involved in NAMASMARAN and 3) most importantly the supreme and pivotal role of this romance in individual and universal blossoming.
At this point, we are “promoted” to the status of being romantically involved in NAMASMARAN, from the status of “understanding its importance; and practicing and spreading it”!
With this promotion we feel happy that we could practice and spread NAMASMARAN without being disheartened, cynical, indolent and escapist about it! We feel happy in the realization that while we are promoted to the status of being romantically involved in NAMASMARAN, the spread of the importance of NMASMARAN is actually multiplied, by the divine hand, without us being apparently involved in it!
We begin to get freed from our obsession, as we become aware of the infinitely more powerful mighty hand of God involved in universalization of NAMASMARAN!
