2 do not focus on the task undertaken, but fly free, discover wider field

Ecil general manager k s srinivasan advised

Do not be lakeer ka fakir

  To name me is to designate me

to accomplish the impossible ,

to raise me , to enable me

to live that name,

to realize that name in real life

to shape me, to mold me ,

to sculpt me, to cast me, to construct me,

to paint me, to sharpen me , to elevate me,

from nothing, that i really am

from the colorless tasteless odorless raw material that i am

to enable me to grow as a personality

as an entity , as an individuality,

to become a visible god

from the invisible deeper potential at the core

Names make the forms

name is a seed sown in the consciousness,

sprouts, grows, becomes the form

good names create good personalities

bad names, curses,

create bad personalities

naming is a great sanskar

New name is a new life

narendra is vivekananda

gautham is budha

rk is param hansa

mahesh is mahesh yogi

rajneesh is osho

kaushik is vishvamithra

We have namavali 108 names, 1000 names,

each is a powerful seed

in fact one name is not sufficient for one individual

an individual is a bundle of infinite individuals ,

having different potential personalities to be activated

and brought to surface by appropriate names

now an anti climax, on the limitation of name !

there is much more than a name can tell ,

since ''name does negate''

any name is associated with form,

qualities, characteristics,

dimensions, geo, time frame,

and so definitely ''negates'' the truth of one's indefinable grand existence ,

and is a binding and a hindrance, a veil, an obstruction,

so it's not a unmixed blessing ,

how to reconcile the great positive potential of name

with equally negative potential?

simple

on the upward journey to reach the nirgun nirakarpara brahman ,

to the core of our being, the fertile field

from which all potentialities manifest,

one must ''get rid of'' all limiting nama rupa guna ,

transcend , go beyond and reach that field .

once established in that field,

now the glory of nama comes into picture

here is the stage the nama brings with it,all the mahimas

from that field as if seed sprouts

and yields crop of all virtues associated with every name,

into the manifest daily living of the individual ,

makes him mahimaanvitha .

here is the significance of all the names of all the gods

and one becomes the shiva if one wants

or vishnu if he wants, or lakshmi if s/he wants

as per his/her need and desire

all gods are now playing with him ,

sharing their unlimited powers .

this is how one needs to be familiar with his ''nameless'' stature,

and also one needs to invoke the names

and enjoy the ''name-fullness'' of that name

ie, one should be able to traverse

from parabrahma to any loka transparently,

by nama sankeerthan like narad and be also on the earth plane

with his official aadhaar card or pan card etc

think on how saints truly overcame the negating /limiting / downsizing effect

of the the name , form, and biodata, and asserted their real grand stature

Let us see what adi shankara said for these FAQs

1 Who are you?

He did not say his name is shankara,

But he said

I am not these limiting features

I am that unmanifest absolute Shivoham,

He asserted once again

shivah kevaloham

2 where are you from, ?

He did not say I am from  kaladi, kerala

But he said

Swadesho bhuvanathrayam

My land is the entire three bhuvanas

3 who are your parents, kith and kin,

He did not say parents x , y

But he said

Matha cha parvathi devi

Pitha devo maheshvara

Bandhava shivabhkthasya

4 who is your guru?

He would have repeated simply he is so and so ,

 

but he asserted truly My guru is

Gurur brahma gurur Vishnu, gururdevo maheshvara

Gurusakshath parabrahma

brahma, vishnu , maheshvara are my guru

verily, the unmanifest absolute is my guru

he again delimits the influence of name

negating the true stature of his human guru

 

really , the saints are so wise not to get bound

by any factor localizing their universal existence,

miniaturize / or negate their infinite stature

science technology have to advance much more than the present status   --

to be able to build  much more safe designs ,much better safety systems, better earth quake/fire resistant buildings and equipment,

to be able to predict calamities much more accurately,

to be able to study the geo systems of water , heat , air, their movements much more closely,

2 need of

more preparedness with better rescue/medical  equipment/systems

more willingness and preparedness /organizing/systems to extend help from international agencies and nations

more learning to come out / pass destructive tests---- organized by the universe power for its own reasons

and

becoming instantly the real gods in human forms to take the victims into bosom helping in everyway

  Devil

In destructive testing, tests are carried out to check the specimen's failure, in order to understand a specimen's structural performance or material behavior under different loads. These tests are generally much easier to carry out, yield more information, and are easier to interpret than nondestructive testing.
Destructive testing is most suitable, and economic, for objects which will be mass produced, as the cost of destroying a small number of specimens is negligible. It is usually not economical to do destructive testing where only one or very few items are to be produced (for example, in the case of a building).
Some types of destructive testing:
• Stress tests
• Crash tests
• Hardness tests
• Metallographic tests
…….saitan, devil, rakshasaas , ---these are the tools in the In destructive testing, in the big lab of universe, to help to see the viability of products to with stand various adverse environs, and test results are used to redesign to improve the products
all is well set, with enough thought and intentions, not by mistake, but by need , we need to expand our vision to an all accepting, all inclusive divine vision to see the role of every bit in the totality
