Thrilled to have you with me!

I feel truly happy to tell you that this, I do not intend to be a book. Rather, it is like friends chatting up, sharing whatever we can together to enhance the wellness space.

It is my humble belief that any person, in whatever state of consciousness and positioning, is in some special ways, better than a wisdom-book, for the purpose of life & living learning. I must tell you, I have learnt and more importantly, unlearnt, primarily from people. Books somehow are people-material in text-format.

Wellness is a function of wider poise of person and personality, which includes factors not only material but also emotional. A person is in complete wellness when there is an overall poise between the cognitive factors such as income, wealth, comfort, leisure and health as well as emotional factors such as trust, security, integration with family-friends-colleagues, connectivity, communication, stability, sense of desirability and spiritual purpose, etc. We live in a modern complex world, where cognitive elements of good life are improving considerably; however, as emotional elements of life and living are largely unsettled and conflicted, most of us fail to hit the road of the perpetuity of poise for larger wellness.

Wellness involves a large spectrum of poise in multidimensional domains – the spiritual, physical, mental, social and emotional. Moreover, the emotional and spiritual aspect of wellness is far more complex than the cognitive ones, as they are the intangibles of life. Wellness is a dynamic idea. It is a goal of life, for which we all need to strive every day. Wellness is not a static state. It is not like wealth, which we acquire once and keep it for long. It requires ongoing attention and timely intervention to the details of evolving social, spiritual and physical life.

Wellness as a holistic notion of physical, emotional as well as ideational prosperity does not mean only lack of impediments to good life, but also having loads of ingredients of good life. For wellness, positivity is far more crucial than simple lack of negativity. Wellness is well within the reach of all of us, yet we all need to constantly redefine ourselves as well our notion of wellness, as our minds and bodies evolve to optimize capacities and excellence.

Wellness is essentially a consciousness positioning. It is not an external or tangible entity, which one can create like wealth. Wellness is a ‘poise’ of consciousness, which is engendered when we have all elements of our life – physical, emotional, ideational and material, in perfect harmony and symmetry with each other. We are ourselves a very complex mechanism. The world we live in has also become hugely complicated and conflicted. The cosmic realism is awesomely complex. Wellness poise needs to connect with all these and then strike a lasting poise. This poise is not static but dynamic, constantly evolving and changing. Only that person can attain perfect wellness and remain in perpetuity of it, who understands all the mechanisms in details and then, uses the wisdom to create a wellness model for himself or herself.

This is not possible for everyone. That is why, there always has been a ‘model’ of wellness for average person to follow. Not everyone can create his or her own model of wellness. In the past, religion was one huge ‘support system’ and a ‘for-all-wisdom’ for our larger wellness as it had a prescribed ‘action-behavior’ model to guide the emotional as well as physical aspects of larger wellness, accepted by large majority.

Religion happened to be the facility for body-mind wellness, which prescribed a common wellness model for all, explainable in terms of set benchmarks of action-behavior. However, this space is growingly being taken over by spiritualism, as religion seems to be losing ground among young, especially in urban space. The fact remains that be it religion or spiritualism, any larger ideational support system for humanity needs to have a secular and contemporary ‘common sense’ for larger humanity as only then, it can be of use for attaining overall wellness poise.

Traditional religion as well as spiritualism is proving out as insufficient facilities for wellness needs of average person as both fail to conform to modern and liberal ideas of prevailing culture. The popular complaint is that both facilities are no more in sync with contemporary common sense as much of their wisdom is now in conflict and contradiction to modernist liberal realisms. However, it is a dire need of humanity as, wellness is something most affected in modern times. We just need to revisit and redefine the old wisdoms of religion and spiritualism and realign the old wisdom to modern contemporary knowledge.

We shall talk in details here, how the old wisdom still has lot to offer to our wellness needs and how we all can create our own personalized and subjective model of spiritualism and religion, taking wellness ideas from old as well as new wisdoms of humanity. We just have to come out of our popular mindset, which considers religion and spiritualism as some sort of external behavior-action rule. It just has to be our common sense of wellness, which is an internalized conscious positioning of mind. This alone can make all of us to be the ‘master of mechanism’.

We talk here about spiritualism and religion, which most people accept as a serious, complex and mystifying idea, something, which is approachable only by an external intellectualism and is beyond popular and temporal common sense. As your friend, I humbly and very affectionately request you to please, drop the guard. Spiritualism, as we shall talk in details here, as against the popular notion, is beautifully simple, innately internal, innocently explicable, highly amusing and smoothly part of our contemporary and modern common sense. That is why, each of us can create a subjective and personalized ‘wellness model’, which is a better situation than accepting an old model, which has been proving not so useful in modern world.

The very mechanism we have – our consciousness, the cosmic realism and our juxtapositioning in it, engenders an associated plexus of logical questions on wellness needs. The popular belief is; spiritualism must have all answers and the right ones. You already know that the two notions – ‘answer’ and ‘right’ are very subjective emotions. Still, the expectations are the same with all wisdoms – religion, philosophy as well as sciences. This pop-belief is calamitous. We are always sure, if a wisdom does not have all ‘answers’, especially the ‘right’ ones, it cannot be wisdom.

The paradox is – all wisdoms somehow ‘claim’ to have all ‘answers’ and the ‘right’ ones, still, no wisdom could ever be one singular and all-acceptable wisdom of humanity. For an innocent mind, not given to the narcissism of intellectualism, it is clear that if there could be problems with the ‘answers’ of all the wisdoms, there can also be something wrong with our ‘questions’, or the way we accept ‘answers’. After all, what is the ‘right answer’ of ‘right questions’ is finally what ‘we’ accept as the ‘right one’.

The first thing, which we all need to ‘unlearn’ with absolute innocence, is this popular belief. In contemporary times, when we have a reasonably sound understanding of how our consciousness works and how this cosmic realism operates, we need to first question; how we create our questions and why. We also need to revisit the popular notions about religion, mysticism and spiritualism. We shall talk here about how we all are a mystic (spiritualist) in some ‘special’ way and how we can personalize our own model of spiritualism to enhance our ‘wellness quotient’.

We shall talk about completely new dimensions and facets of a new spiritual within us, who redefines all prevailing aspects of spiritualism with a holistic, assimilative and integrative perspective. This shall talk of personalized and subjective ‘wellness wisdom’, which shall engender a ‘perpetuity of poise, peace, purpose and prosperity’ not only with the ‘self’ but also with the cosmic realism. This ‘model’ shall not only have the right answers but also the right questions!

We shall talk in details about all these. However, first, we have to come down to one common premise, which shall help us is the fruition of the issue at hand – To Be In Perpetuity Of Wellness, Peace and Excellence.

There has to be a humble admittance – Any word, however well meant and well spelt, is a possible suspect of ‘misrepresentation’. There is a simple reason.

Do you remember when your flight is about to land, the pilot aborts the landing, jolting your peace, just because something as insignificant as a ‘stray dog’ happens to be on the runway?

You already know, how similar is the fate of human words, which we all accept as the best and worthy carriers of human ‘intentions’. This airplane of human words, carrying good and noble intentions need to make a good, smooth and safe landing on the runway of another human’s mind and consciousness, which again is worthy and hugely able.

Still, the good intentioned words sometimes fail to land on the mind of others, as there is some ‘insignificant’, yet potentially fatal obstacle standing midway the runway!

It is believed, “If the hypothesis is right, the idea is accepted as right”. If two people have an assimilative and integrative attitude, one can easily see that root trouble is in subjectivity of the hypotheses. This helps in resolution of conflict of ideas.

Friendship is one positioning, where assimilation and integration about divergent hypotheses has larger accommodative space. A seed is more objectively accommodative in space than a grown up tree. Friendship is seed positioning.

That is why, at the very start, I very affectionately requested you to be my friend and accept this all as one long conversation between friends. Kindly, accept this not as a book but a ‘confabulation’ between friends. This, I am confident, shall engender smoothness of navigation and fruition of the entire exercise. The confabulation over the sensitive issue of spiritualism can be fruitful only when you have an open mind about new thoughts and you know it, with a friend, you are most comfortable and opened-up.

With all humility and sincerity at my behest, I wish to tell you, it needs to be said that there is only one person on the earth, who can say that he has understood. Otherwise, this domain is reserved for a ‘metaphor’ called God. This is not available for humans.

It is also a heart-felt realization that our very worthy ancestors, who had the intelligence and courage to face the worst, life made them to, so that we inherit a better beautiful world, have already said almost all good things. What I can do is present them in
