Lastly; world politics embodies appreciation, practice and encouragement of the practice of NAMASMARAN. It is already being practiced by billions. But world politics involves its practice; right from childhood, according to one’s tradition; in every nook and corner of the world; billions more; and with greater intensity and selflessness!

2. World politics essentially means the expression of cosmic
consciousness. This expression is through the people with
an urge for individual and global blossoming. They all
interact heart to heart; and evolve the pragmatic aspects
of holistic perspective, policies, plans, programs and their
implementation.
This world politics and is a major part of Total Stress
Management. At present; it is rather imperfect,
immature, inaccurate, insufficient and ineffective. The
perspective, conceptualization, conviction, motivation,
mobilization and the implementation are imperfect.
Billions of living beings of different species, ages; and
different geographical, political, social, economic,
cultural and historical backgrounds; have billions of
different needs, wants, likes, dislikes, virtues, vices, hopes
and despairs. Their behavior also varies; in accordance.
But all of them still have a common aspiration, which is
not conspicuous. In fact; it is concealed in the apparent
diversity! What is this? It is the aspiration of individual
and global blossoming; and may be at conscious;
subconscious or unconscious level!

3. But more explicit and evolved manifestation of this
aspiration would be evident in;
 HEALTH Availability, upholding and promotion of
safe drinking water and vegetarian food ensured by all
governments.
 Redefinition of holistic health as “Optimal intellectual,
emotional, instinctual and physical actions to promote
individual and global blossoming, in one’s field”
 Practice and promotion of Holistic Medicine; i.e. the
art, science and skills of employing everything
effective; in regaining and promoting HOLISTIC
HEALTH, as an essential and inseparable core of
mainstream Medical Education, Teaching, Practice
and Research.
 EDUCATION Holistic Education; with “earn and
learn”, “produce and progress”, “assessment of the
skills by actual practice and demonstration and passing
without written examinations; with emphasis on
spiritual and productive domain; in addition to
affective, cognitive, psychomotor domains; and
research and teaching in different fields conducive to
holistic health

4.  All religious temples and places of worship voluntarily
incorporating educational, industrial, and agricultural
and research activities conducive to holistic health;
thereby getting re-integrated with mainstream life
 All educational and industrial houses adopting the
religious and/or spiritual activities; in which, the
philosophy of holistic health is implicit (though
variable in terms of semantics i.e. languages and terms)
 Getting up early, drinking of water in morning,
rubbing the teeth, gums and palate in morning and
using herbs conducive to dental, oral and general
health
 By hearting and singing of hymns and prayers of
different religions and regions
 Laws being devoid of vindictiveness and conducive to
holistic health; criminals not being treated with
vengeance but the laws in general being formative, (e.g.
the persons soiling the public property would me made
to clean the same, a corrupt person would be made to
work double the duty hours, without salary and those
involved in misleading or deceptive commercials such
as (98% stoppage of hair fall, double increase in height)
would be made to participate in production, research,
training and practice of holistic health and medicine, at
no profit. The production of bicycles and vehicles of

5. mass transport being echo-friendly would have
minimum or no tax)
 Sanskrit being researched and taught all over the
world if; after careful scrutiny by international well
meaning unprejudiced intellectuals belonging to
different religions; found beneficial to mankind
 The unifying elements and enlightenment in the lives of
saints, seers and other reformers being integral part of
all the curriculums
 The doctrines of bigotry, fanaticism, Zionism, racism,
wars and hatred occupying NO space in curriculums
 Ongoing introspective critical research and dialogue
over; a) pros and cons of b) role of beastly instincts c)
role of vested interests d) role of indiscriminate
brutality; in slaughtering the cows, bullocks and other
animals
 Encouragement to local and folk sports, arts music.
 Evolution of defense policies; from a state of being
brutal, barbaric, cruel, vicious, prejudiced, suspicious,
obstinate and sectarian; to reconciliatory, progressive,
unifying and globally blossoming
 Promotion of global perspective with liberal and
considerate attitude
 Last and the most important; Universal Practice of
NAMASMARAN i.e. remembering one’s true self

childhood, according to the particular tradition
