Whole Dude – Whole Man: Holistic Education for Whole Man or Whole Dude.One Body with all its many parts constitutes the Whole Body. God is the True Provider of Whole Satisfaction.
I describe the Seven Dimensions of the Man to define the phrase Whole Man or Whole Dude. These dimensions are 1. Man, the Physical Being with cells, tissues, organs, and organ systems, 2. Man, the Mental Being with thoughts, feelings, and moods, 3. Man, the Social Being, in which the Singularity of Man, in reality, represents a vast biological or biotic community of interacting individual, independent cells apart from trillions of organisms, 4. Man, the Moral Being who can choose good or evil actions and make the distinction between right and wrong in the performance of his living activities, 5. Man, the Spiritual Being who desires Peace, Harmony, and Tranquility in his Living Experience, 6. Man, the Created Being who has no choice other than that of existing as an Individual with Individuality, and 7. Man, the Rational Being who accounts for the Subjective and Objective Reality of his Physical Existence in the Natural World.
A Mantra to Save Whole Man: The Mantra of Sukama Ba – Sukuma Ba- Sukuma Ba:
Whole Dude – Whole Man: The sacrifice of Issac by Father Abraham in obedience to LORD GOD’s command. The genesis of the ‘MANTRA’; “SUKUMA BA, SUKUMA BA, SUKUMA BA.”God is the True Provider of Whole Satisfaction.
This is a true story about the ‘Mantra’ called “Sukuma Ba, Sukuma Ba, Sukuma Ba” revealed by my friend Hoshea (Hebrew – Salvation).
I received a phone call while I was extremely busy and the person who called me was asking if I could provide something that was missing. I was pained that I was not able to provide the product or service that was urgently needed. I was struggling to find the right words as I wanted to give an assurance and a sense of hope that I could deliver or provide the product if I am given sufficient amount of time. My friend Hoshea, who was listening to my phone conversation, recognized my sense of agony, and the feelings of disappointment for my inability to provide what was needed by the caller. Hoshea told me that my response to the phone call was not proper. He told me the secret of providing and revealed to me the nature of the True Provider and the concept of Whole Satisfaction.
Whole Dude – Whole Man: Lord is True Provider of Whole Satisfaction.
Hoshea assured me that the LORD is the True Provider and directed me that man must always invoke the blessings of the LORD, the True Provider. I asked Hoshea as to what is the correct way to respond to such a phone call or when people ask for help which I may not be able to provide. Then Hoshea, true to his name, revealed the ‘Mantra’ that he learned from Prophet Moses. Hoshea chanted the ‘Mantra’ for my benefit: “Sukuma Ba, Sukuma Ba, Sukuma Ba.” He told me that the magical potency of this ‘Mantra’ invokes the blessings of the LORD as the LORD is the True Provider. The Lord hears the prayer, and knows the nature of the problem, and provides what is needed or a replacement to provide the Whole Satisfaction that would uplift man from his misery and plight.
I asked Hoshea to explain the meaning of the words of this ‘Mantra’ of “Sukuma Ba, Sukuma Ba, Sukuma Ba.” He narrated the story from the First Book of Moses, Genesis, the First Book of The Old Testament.
Whole Dude – Whole Man:
Whole Dude – Whole Man: The creation of man as a Whole and Complete person in God’s own image.
The First Book of Moses, Genesis describes the creation of man: “So God created man in His own image; in the image of God. He created him; male and female. He created them.” (Genesis, Chapter 1, verse 27).
Whole Dude – Whole Man: God created man in His own image and for that reason, man is a Whole Man.
Man is a perfect creation and hence the man created by God is a Whole Man which means that man is auspicious, in sound health, not diseased, not injured, not broken, not damaged, not defective, intact, containing all the elements or parts and is complete.
A Test for Whole Man’s Obedience and the Saving of Whole Man by Sukuma Ba ‘Mantra’:
Whole Dude – Whole Man: In obedience to LORD GOD’s Command, Father Abraham decided to sacrifice his only son Issac at an altar chosen by God. Issac who was fully conscious, cried loudly, “SUKUMA BA, SUKUMA BA, SUKUMA BA.” LORD GOD heard Issac’s prayer, was satisfied with Father Abraham’s obedience, sent a male sheep (RAM) to replace Issac for the ritualistic sacrifice.
The Book of Genesis, Chapter 22 describes the story of Issac, the only son of Father Abraham.
Whole Dude – Whole Man: God is the True Provider of Whole Satisfaction.
God wanted to test Abraham : “Then He said, “Take now your son, your only son Issac, whom you love, and go the Land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you.” (Genesis 22:2).
Whole Dude – Whole Man: God is True Provider of Whole Satisfaction
While Abraham and Issac proceeded to the designated place of worship, Issac spoke to his father: “But Issac spoke to Abraham his father and said, “My father!” And he said, “Here I am my son.” Then he said, “Look, the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?” (Genesis 22:7). And Abraham said, “My son, God will provide for Himself the lamb for a burnt offering.” (Genesis 22:8)
Whole Dude – Whole Man: God is the True Provider of Whole Satisfaction.
Then Abraham built an altar at the place God had told him, and Abraham placed the wood in order; and bound Issac his son and laid him on the altar, upon the wood (Genesis 22:9).
Whole Dude – Whole Man: God is the True Provider of Whole Satisfaction.
Hoshea revealed that, it was at that moment of desperation, Issac had yelled to express his sense of shock and disappointment that he had become the sacrificial Lamb chosen by LORD GOD. Issac loudly protested saying the magical words, “Sukuma Ba, Sukuma Ba, Sukuma Ba.” The ‘Mantra worked and God listened to the prayer and took action to Provide the Lamb for the burnt offering.
Whole Dude – Whole Man: God is the True Provider of Whole Satisfaction.
Then Abraham lifted his eyes and looked, and there behind him was a ramcaught in a thicket by its horns.
Whole Dude – Whole Man: God is the True Provider. God Provided His Only Son as the Sacrificial Lamb and forced him to carry the burden of the Cross.
So Abraham went and took the ram, and offered it up for a burnt offering instead of his son (Genesis 22:13) and Abraham called the name of the place, “The-LORD-Will-Provide”; as it is said to this day.” (Genesis 22:14)

Whole Dude – Whole Designer – Whole Perspectivism: Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (1844 to 1900), German philosopher who shaped the history of 20th-century philosophy, theology, and psychology. He is considered to be the most influential philosophers who ever lived.
Nietzsche is considered to be the most influential philosophers who ever lived. He is considered to be German language’s most brilliant prose writer. In the words of Sigmund Freud, “Nietzsche had a more penetrating understanding of himself than any man who ever lived or was ever likely to live.” Apart from his critiques of traditional religion, philosophy, and morality, Nietzsche shared a concept called ‘Perspectivism’.
Whole Dude – Whole Designer – Whole Perspectivism
The word ‘perspective’ is stated as the relationship or proportion of the parts of a ‘Whole’, regarded from a particular standpoint or point in time. It describes a specific point of view in understanding or judging things or events, especially one that shows them in their true relationship to one another. Perspective requires the ability to see things in a true relationship. John Godfrey Saxe (1816-1887) provides a perspective in his famous poem “Indian Legend.”
Whole Dude – Whole Designer – Whole Perspectivism: John Godfrey Saxe in his famous poem ‘Indian Legend’ provides a perspective on human limitations to acquire knowledge by direct observation. It would be like that of Six Blind Men examining the Reality called Elephant using the powers of their direct observation. Each person comes to his own conclusion about the nature of Reality.
John Godfrey Saxe describes the problem of knowing the reality using the human powers of observation and compares it to the conclusions arrived by the Six Blind Men who had examined a huge Elephant:
“It was six men of Indostan
To learning much inclined,
Who went to see the Elephant
(Though all of them were blind).
That each by observation
Might satisfy his mind.”
Whole Dude – Whole Designer – Whole Perspectivism: What is Reality? What is Illusion? What is your Perspective? In my opinion, my view, or perspective is preceded by the fact of my physical existence on the surface of fast spinning planet Earth. My perspective may have to always include the reality of my relationship with planet Earth. I am blissfully unaware of the Speed of Earth’s Motion. My intellectual awareness of Earth’s Motion cannot overcome the Power of Illusion caused by the Fundamental Force known as Gravitation.
Perspectivism is a concept which holds that knowledge is always perspectival, or knowledge demands perception of a range of information, facts, or experience. Nietzsche claims that there are no immaculate perceptions. Nietzsche will not be able to make a similar claim about the impossibility of certain kinds of perception.
Whole Dude – Whole Designer – Whole Perspectivism: Pencil in Water illusion. Can Science influence the nature of Perception? The Perception of bent Pencil is caused by the properties of Light rays. Science can only explain the reason for this Optical illusion. Science has no Power to eliminate the illusion. The only way man can experience the Reality of this Pencil would be that of changing the State of Pencil’s Conditioned Existence. It is easy to remove the Pencil from Water and experience the Reality. But, can Man remove himself from his State of Conditioned Existence and experience Reality?
I suggest that in the “Immaculate Perception” of the Whole Designer, man exists not because of his perception of reality but with the perception of illusion which protects man from knowing the reality. In Nietzsche’s opinion, knowledge from no point of view is as incoherent a notion as seeing from no particular vantage point.
Whole Dude – Whole Designer – Whole Perspectivism: Man speaks about truth and reality without realizing that he exists for he is protected from knowing the truth and the reality of Earth’s Speed and Motions.
Nietzsche’s Perspectivism denies the possibility of an all-inclusive perspective which could contain all others. Particularly, there can be no all-inclusive perspective on reality that could make reality available as it is in itself. Nietzsche further explains his Perspectivism and concludes that the concept of such an all-inclusive perspective is as incoherent as the concept of seeing an object from every possible vantage point simultaneously. Man cannot avoid the issue of the problems of perspective and man has to reconcile with the problem caused by the absence of an all-inclusive perspective about the nature of truth and reality.
Whole Dude – Whole Designer – Whole Perspectivism: As Earth rotates from West to East, the Speed of a point on the Earth’s surface depends on its location. The rotational speed of Earth is faster at the Equator. However, it must be noted that man has no sensory perception of the speed of Earth which is in fact a blessing that safeguards human existence from a dangerous reality.
I approach the problem of human perspective from a different direction. Firstly, man’s ability called perception is always preceded by the fact of man’s existence. There is no existence without the influence called Grand Illusion that blocks aspects of man’s perception of reality. The fundamental basis of human existence on the surface of fast spinning Earth is conditioned by the experience called Grand Illusion which defends existence from the danger of reality and the consequences of experiencing the reality of Earth and the universe in which man exists.
In my opinion, it will be possible to formulate an all-inclusive perspective on illusion even while human beings have a problem to share an all-inclusive perspective on truth and reality.
Whole Dude – Whole Perspectivism: MATTER REPRESENTS GOD AS UNMANIFESTED REALITY FOR GOD’S FORM OR APPEARANCE CANNOT BE DISCERNED BY SIMPLY EXPLORING MATTER. THE LIVING THINGS ACQUIRE A HUGE DIVERSITY IN THEIR FORMS AND APPEARANCE BECAUSE OF A CREATIVE POTENCY THAT TRANSFORMS MATTER INTO LIVING FORMS. GOD CREATES AND AT THE SAME REMAINS ALIENATED FROM HIS CREATION.
I am using the term “Whole Perspectivism” to describe an all-inclusive perspective on Whole Existence that demands both Illusion and Reality. In the final analysis, God remains aloof, distant, disinterested, disengaged, separate, and even alienated from His own artistic work that combines illusion and reality which manifests as Creation.
Yes indeed! Life is complicated for we often get confused and do not know if we eat to live or live to eat. Very often, people display their ignorance by asking the question, What do you do for living?
Whole Dude – Whole Time: What do you do for your living?
Whole Dude – Whole Time – Whole Job – Whole Life
What do you do for your living? I live on Whole Food.
WHOLE DUDE WHOLE TIME: NOT PART-TIME, NOT TEMPORARY, NOT SEASONAL, AND NOT FULL-TIME. I LIVE ON WHOLE FOOD. We’re growing something good and we want you to be part of it. If you’re ready to make a difference, bring your Whole Self to Whole Foods. Whole Dude-Whole Time makes the Whole Difference.
On Tuesday, the Sixth Day of August 2019, I coined the phrase Whole Dude – Whole Time to answer the question, “What do you do for Your Living?” I live on Whole Food to do the Whole Job during my Whole Life.
In my analysis, I cannot be classified either as White-Collar, or Blue-Collar Worker. I cannot be described as Part-Time, Temporary, Seasonal, or Full-Time Employee of any entity that provides the earnings, or wages in exchange for any mental or physical work performed by my human body.To live as Whole Dude is a Whole Time Job.
Whole Dude, Whole Man, Whole Person , or Whole Self works Whole Time during his Whole Life, from the moment of his conception until his death, by performing the Whole Job described as Cellular Respiration even when he watches TV relaxing on his couch or even when he is snoring, fast asleep in his bed.
Whole Dude – Whole Time: Cellular respiration is a set of metabolic reactions and processes that take place in the cells of organisms to convert biochemical energy from nutrients into adenosine triphosphate (ATP), and then release waste products.
The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) does not define full-time employment or part-time employment. This is a matter generally to be determined by the employer. Whether an employee is considered full-time or part-time does not change the application of the FLSA, nor does it affect the application of the Service Contract Act or Davis-Bacon and Related Acts wage and fringe benefit requirements.

I ask my readers to totally avoid the narrow perspective of your School Education while you attempt your own Self-Discovery. You should submit to God and search for the Human Identity created by God. I am not saying that you should just give up your present Identity either in terms of your language, religion, gender, culture and etc., I am asking you to step outside the “BOX.” I am not asking you to compromise your human aspirations for political rights. The Identity given by God is not bound by our nationality or citizenship status.
I ask you to learn the correct manner in which you answer the basic questions about Life and Living. What do you for your living? The answer does not require your nationality, citizenship status, your race, your gender, your educational experience, and not even your occupational history. When you recognize God as the Supreme Controller, the Supreme Sustainer, and the Supreme Maintainer of Life on planet Earth, you will find a perspective different from all other human perspectives.
What do You do for Your Living?
This blog post is dedicated to Goddess Sarasvati, the Goddess of Pure Knowledge and Perfect Wisdom. The question, “What do you do for your Living” must be answered by attaching meaning to terms such as ‘Life’, and ‘Living’ using the information provided by Science. If the human Subject called “I” is existing, it has to be accounted for by the description of work or job performed to maintain or sustain the fact of its existence.
Whole Dude – Whole Time: Living as the Whole Dude is a Whole Time Whole Job for Whole Life.
Goddess Sarasvati symbolizes the pursuit of Knowledge and Wisdom and helps me to define Life as Knowledge in Action.
Whole Job-Whole Life. What are Living Functions?

Spirituality Science. What do you do for Living?
THE PROCESS, THE MECHANISM CALLED CELLULAR RESPIRATION IS NOT LEARNED OR ACQUIRED EXPERIENCE. NO SPIRITUAL TEACHER, NO SPIRITUAL MASTER, AND NO SPIRITUAL GUIDE CAN IMPLANT THIS KNOWLEDGE IN MAN.
At a fundamental level, the Living System called man is thermodynamically unstable and it means that the System demands a constant supply of energy from an external source. The process or the mechanism called ‘Cellular Respiration’ is involved in energy acquisition, energy manipulation, energy transformation, and energy expenditure involved in the performance of the numerous Living Functions that establish the fact of the Living Thing existing in its given environment at any given place and time.
Whole Dude-Whole Time. Living as the Whole Dude is a Whole Time Job for Whole Life.
THE LIVING CELL IS THERMODYNAMICALLY UNSTABLE. TO EXIST, THE LIVING CELL NEEDS CONTINUOUS SUPPLY OF MATTER AND ENERGY FROM ITS EXTERNAL ENVIRONMENT. PROTOPLASM OR CYTOPLASM USES THE POWER OF NUTRITION TO ACQUIRE MATTER AND ENERGY FROM ITS EXTERNAL ENVIRONMENT AND ENABLES THE LIVING CELL TO PERFORM A VARIETY OF LIVING FUNCTIONS CALLED METABOLISM.
The Knowledge Theory vs The Living Functions:
Whole Dude-Whole Time. Living as the Whole Dude is a Whole Time Job for Whole Life.
Spirituality Science. What do you do for Living? Many important biological processes involve Redox or Oxidation and Reduction Chemical Reactions. These chemical reactions reveal a dynamic process that is the characteristic of both Life and Death. If Life is explained by a series of chemical reactions, the same process continues into Death.
I ask my readers to carefully examine the role of Knowledge in the performance of human living functions. The man exists in the physical world, not on account of learned experience, or acquired Knowledge which he may use in the performance of actions that relate to his social occupation that provides him with earnings or income with which he caters for his physiological needs like food, water, clothing, and housing.
Man’s physical and mental work is not the ultimate basis of his existence. For example, the man has no direct sensory awareness of the numerous Redox or Oxidation and Reduction Chemical Reactions involved in the dynamic process called Life and Death.
What is Knowledge?
Whole Dude – Whole Time: Life is defined as Knowledge in Action.
Knowledge is defined as the act, fact, or state of knowing a range of information. The act of knowing requires knowledge or information relevant to a particular act. The state of knowledge describes the condition that characterizes an object in which such knowledge or information exists. If knowledge is defined as a fact of knowing some information, it describes a clear perception, or understanding, or awareness, or cognizance of information that pertains to that fact. Knowledge can only exist, can only be found in an object which has the abilities of perception, understanding, awareness, or cognition. In other words, knowledge is an attribute of the act, fact, or state of living. A living object is the seat of knowledge and the presence of knowledge could be verified or detected in any of the actions or activities of that living matter. The act of living requires a state or condition of knowing information relevant to sustaining life’s functions.
Whole Dude-Whole Time. Living as the Whole Dude is a Whole Time Job for Whole Life.
If the human brain or mind is viewed as the Seat of Knowledge, hands, and feet, or the muscles used in vocalization are the sites where Knowledge is transformed into Action.In common usage, the word knowledge is used to describe all that has been perceived or grasped by the human brain or mind. The learning, the body of facts, principles, etc., accumulated by man is stated as his knowledge. The state of knowing becomes evident only when knowledge is transformed into action. The man displays knowledge in the use of his hands and feet in the performance of his actions. Man can communicate his knowledge in his speech, in his writings, and in his use of a variety of tools, instruments, gadgets, and machines. If the human brain or mind is viewed as the seat of knowledge, hands, and feet, or the muscles used in vocalization are the sites where knowledge is transformed into action. Knowledge involves receiving/storing information at one site and using that information in the performance of action at a different site. The ability and the quality of a man’s function reflect upon his state of knowledge relative to that function. Knowledge is verified during its application to perform a function. This concept or understanding of knowledge in action could also be used in the context of describing functions at the cellular level.

The Da Vinci Telerobotic Surgical System permits the surgeon to perform an operation on a patient from a remote site. The mechanical robotic arm could perform tasks with great precision while it has no knowledge of its own.While information can be found in books, in writings, in speech/ speech recordings, and etc., it should not be described as knowledge. A robotic, mechanical arm could perform tasks with great precision while it has no knowledge of its own. Knowledge, awareness, and ability to use information exist only as an attribute of life or as an act of living.

Anatomy of Plant Cell clearly illustrates that Life exists because of the establishment of Knowledge, the source of Information for a variety of biological functions. Both Bacterial (Prokaryotic), Animal, and Plant (Eukaryotic) Cells share similar characteristics. The Living Cell functions by application of the information contained in its genetic material. Use of information to perform action describes the Knowing and it represents Knowledge in Action. Virus particles composed of Nucleic Acids either RNA or DNA within a case of Protein, in it’s Free State the Virus particle behaves like Inert matter and when it infects living cells of plants, animals, or bacteria the Virus starts replicating using the Chemical Energy and Nucleic Acid synthesizing abilities of the host Cell. The Application of Knowledge in Viral Replication is very interesting. The Structure of the Influenza Virus reveals its Functional Organization. Each function involves the application of Knowledge. This Knowledge is derived from its hereditary information. The Virus exists because of genetic material which provides it the information to perform its function that is characteristic of its existence.
What is Life? Life is Knowledge in Action. A living cell performs a variety of functions that are characteristic of its life. The Cell Structure known as Nucleus is the Seat of Knowledge. In structures known as Chromosomes it stores hereditary, and biological information for its growth, development, replication, reproduction, and metabolic functions such as protein synthesis for its growth and maintenance. Protein Synthesis takes place in structures known as Ribosomes that are located in Cytoplasm outside the Nucleus. Nucleus transfers information to Ribosomes by using Transfer RNA. Nucleus provides only information and to use that information for its function of Protein Synthesis, the Ribosome derives Energy from another Cell Structure known as Mitochondrion. This process of Cellular Function describes Knowledge in Action.Life is described as a state of an organism characterized by certain processes or abilities that include metabolism, nutrition, growth, motion, replication, reproduction, responsiveness to stimuli, and awareness of its own condition of existence or living in an environment.
Whole Dude – Whole Time: In mitochondria, many substances (food) are oxidized and ATP, the energy-storing chemical of the Cell is produced. The most important equations for living things are mutually inverse. Respiration of humans, and Cellular Respiration represents the reverse of Photosynthesis.
The act of living could be stated by describing the functions that characterize life. Functions depend upon the use of information; the information that is stored at a particular site or location is transferred to a different site or location where it is transformed into action which constitutes the nature of functioning. Life is always associated with its living functions and these functions depend upon the use of energy. If the Nucleus is viewed as the Seat of Knowledge of a Living Cell, it communicates its Knowledge to another Cell Structure known as Ribosome which is the Site of Action for the Knowledge transferred from the Nucleus. The Ribosome performs its action of Protein Synthesis drawing Energy provided by another Cell Structure known as Mitochondrion.
So also the human brain provides information and sends signals to muscles to perform actions. Muscle cells perform actions drawing Energy from Mitochondria of their Cells. This process called Living depends upon the use of Energy. If Life is a manifestation of an Energy or Life Force, Life could be defined as Knowing the Connection between ‘energy-Seeker’ (or energy-demanding molecules) and an ‘Energy-Provider’ or Source of Energy (or energy-yielding molecules).
Life and its functions are evidence of its State of Knowledge. Hence, Life could be defined as “Knowledge in Action.” Life comes into existence or into a state called Living, and Life begins with the establishment of Knowledge in an object or matter that gains the identity of a Living Organism.

Annapurna (Annapoorna, Annapurneshwari, or Annada) is the Goddess of Food and Nourishment. Hence, Annapurna is a form of Shakti, Power, Force, and Energy and is described as a special manifestation of Goddess Parvati, the consort of Lord Shiva, the Lord who sustains the creation and may eventually cause its dissolution.
The word Anna is translated as Food and Grains and the word Purna means Whole, Full, or Complete. The Sanskrit words, Anna + Purna or Food + Whole gets transformed into the phrase Whole Foods in English. Fullness comes from Fullness and Fullness remains forever Full. Just like the concept of Sunya or Zero in Mathematics, the concept of Purna or Whole belongs to Bharat, the Land of India.

Apparently,she liked some prayers more than others and she check marked her favorite selections in the prayer book.I liked her choice of “Bruhi Mukundeti.”
Whole Dude – Whole Hymn – Whole Concept: The Sweetness of uttering the name Krishna
The name Sri Krishna is received by the ears of the listener with a sense of sweetness which is described as sweet as the heavenly nectar called Amrut.
Whole Dude – Whole Hymn – Whole Concept: Nine Ways to Worship Lord God Creator
Prahlada, a great devotee of Lord Vishnu described nine ways to worship Vishnu. The acts of Smaranam (Remembering the Lord by recalling His glorious names from memory), Kirtanam (Singing the holy names of the Lord), and Sravanam (Listening or hearing the names of the Lord) could be combined into a single act of worship by simply repeating the various sweet names with which Lord Krishna is known.The best thing about this prayer is that one need not ask for any grant of wishes and need not express the desires of your heart. Kuchela who had traveled to Dwaraka to meet with Krishna and seek His favors, had actually forgotten to mention the purpose of his visit and was feeling sorry on his way back home for he thought that he had missed a great opportunity to speak his mind to Krishna. Kuchela,when he eventually got back home, he was in for a big surprise. Krishna knew his problems and granted his wishes and much more even without hearing a word about it. The sweetness of the name makes it easier to carry on the burdens of life and comforts you during your journey. The sweet name cheers up your heart, brightens your mood, sooths your aching joints, and gives hope when there is nothing else you can do. Let that sweet name fulfill your unexpressed,unstated and unspoken desires of your heart.
Whole Dude – Whole Hymn – Whole Concept: My favorite prayer song. Lord Madhava, and his consort of Madhavi (the name derived from the word Madhu which means nectar, honey, sugar, and Wine) bestow Krupa (the blessings of mercy, compassion, and grace) and the blessings impart the taste experience of Sweetness known as Madhurya.
Meaning: (I take Refuge in Sri Hanuman) 1: Who is Swift as the Mind and Fast as the Wind, 2: Who is the Master of the Senses, and Honoured for His Excellent Intelligence, Learning and Wisdom, 3: Who is Son of the Wind God and Chief among the Vanaras (Who were part of the Devas incarnated in the species of the monkeys to serve Sri Rama during His Incarnation), 4: To that Messenger of Sri Rama, I take Refuge (by prostrating before him).
I take refuge in Hanuman who was born from the womb of mother Anjani, and who was the most excellent minister of the king of monkeys (i.e. Sugriva), who is extremely dear to Sri Rama; I bow to you, O Hanuman, please protect me always.

Whole Dude – Whole Blessings for Whole Vairagya: Annapurna (Annapoorna, Annapurneshwari or Annada) is the Goddess of Food and Nourishment and hence is a form of Shakti, Power, Force, and Energy.Whole Dude – Whole Blessings for Whole Vairagya: Annapurna is the Goddess of Food and Nourishment. She is the Sustainer of all Life
Annapurna (Annapoorna, Annapurneshwari, or Annada) is the Goddess of Food and Nourishment. Hence, Annapurna is a form of Shakti, Power, Force, and Energy and is described as a special manifestation of Goddess Parvati, the consort of Lord Shiva, the Lord who sustains the creation and may eventually cause its dissolution.
Whole Dude – Whole Blessings for Whole Vairagya: Goddess Annapurna (Anna+Purna ). The word Anna is translated as Food and Grains, and the word Purna means Whole, Full, or Complete.
The word Anna is translated as Food and Grains and the word Purna means Whole, Full, or Complete. Fullness comes from Fullness and it remains forever Full.
Whole Dude – Whole Blessings for Whole Vairagya.
Annapurna Devi symbolizes the abundant nourishment she gives to all. She is the Mother Principle and Lord Shiva symbolizes the Originating Principle or the Father Principle. She is the Mother Goddess of all Life. In the Indian Tradition the ritualistic worship of Food and the devotional offering of Food are highly praised. Food is considered sacred and prayers are offered before consuming Food.
Whole Dude – Whole Blessings for Whole Vairagya: In the Indian Tradition, Moksha or Liberation is viewed as the Ultimate Goal of Life. To attain this goal, the man invokes the Blessings of Goddess Annapurna every time before he consumes Food to sustain his mortal existence.
In the Indian Tradition, Food is considered only as a means towards Moksha or Liberation, the Ultimate Goal of human birth. The process to attain Moksha demands acquisition of Jnana or Knowledge using the path of Vairagya or Detachment. For Jnana (the awakening of spiritual knowledge about true or real Self) and Vairagya (dispassion, detachment, freedom from all other worldly desires), the seeker begs it as the alms of Grace, Mercy, and Compassion granted by Mother Annapurna.
Akshata or Akshinta, the Whole Blessings granted by Mother Annapurna:
Whole Dude – Whole Blessings for Whole Vairagya: Akshata or Akshinta are specially prepared Uncooked, and Unbroken Grains of Rice that deliver the Whole Blessings of Mother Annapurna.
Akshata is a Sanskrit word which means Whole. Akshata or Akshinta refers to the Unbroken and Uncooked Rice Grains offered to the deity during worship and other religious ceremonies to invoke the Whole Blessings of Mother Annapurna, the Sustainer of Life. Akshata are often sprinkled over the heads of the seekers of Whole Blessings of Life with prosperity, fertility, and bounty. Akshata are used in all auspicious occasions such as the performance of marriage ceremonies.
The Whole Concept of Whole Vairagya:
Whole Dude – Whole Blessings for Whole Vairagya
Vairagya is a Sanskrit word that translates to detachment or dispassion. In Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras (1:15), the essence of Vairagya is described as: Dispassion, the conscious mastery of the control of desire for objects seen, perceived, or heard. King-Sage Bhartrihari composed 100 verses popularly known as Vairagya Satakam.
Whole Dude – Whole Blessings for Whole VairagyaWhole Dude – Whole Blessings for Whole VairagyaWhole Dude – Whole Blessings for Whole Vairagya
The goal of renunciation and non-attachment to life is not attained by avoiding the consumption of food which sustains the mortal existence. In fact, food is the spiritual medium that provides the connection between the energy dependent man and his energy provider. The chemical energy required for the performance of all living functions involves the act of cellular respiration.
Whole Dude – Whole Blessings for Whole Vairagya: Cellular respiration is a set of metabolic reactions and processes that take place in the cells of organisms to convert biochemical energy from nutrients into adenosine triphosphate (ATP), and then release waste products.
Man is a created being and is constituted as a Spiritual Being. The Spiritual Knowledge required to establish, to maintain, and to sustain the human existence is implanted in the living, corporeal substance of the man and it cannot be acquired or learned from any external source. At a fundamental level the existence of man is not related to the physical and mental work performed by man. It is true that man must satisfy the sensations of hunger and thirst by performing actions to gather and consume food and drink but its transformation into a new form of chemical energy which alone sustains life does not depend upon any external source of Knowledge.
I ask my readers to carefully review the concept of Knowledge acquired through the Learning Experience for the attainment of Vairagya.
Whole Dude – Whole Blessings for Whole vairagya: There are four major qualities/strengths one has to develop, in order to reach the Self, and attain freedom and permanent happiness in this world we live in Today. 1. Discrimination (Viveka) 2. Dispassion(Vairagya ) 3. Desire to be Free and Desire for the Highest. (Mumukshatva) Continued—–Whole Dude – Whole Blessings for Whole Vairagya: 4th Pillar consists of Six Wealths/Strengths or Qualities : Shama (Control over mind) Dama (Control over senses) Titiksha (Endurance and forebearing) Uparati (Rejoicing in your own nature) Shraddha (Faith) Samadhana (Being at ease)Whole Dude – Whole Blessings for Whole Vairagya: What is Viveka? Whatever you consider as stationary or solid is neither stationary nor solid. Discriminating between that which is not changing, and everything else which is ever changing is Viveka . Understanding that everything is changing would reduce 99% of the misery in this world. The Spiritual nature of the living substance does not change under the influence of time.Whole Dude – Whole Blessings for Whole Vairagya: What is Vairagya? Vairagya means Becoming at Ease with What Is. An attitude of So what! Let it be, whatever takes away the feverishness in you and brings you to that pillar of dispassion. Dispassion towards the enjoyments of the five sense or the spiritual enjoyment, towards the seen and the unseen, the outer world or the inner world. Man who views Food as the source of Spiritual Energy will not get attached to Food he consumes. Whole Dude – Whole Blessings for Whole Vairagya: The existence of Man in the terrestrial domain is always conditioned and man is not born free. The desire for deliverance from the dependent, conditioned existence is experienced if and only if man retains the spiritual connection that maintains the vital, living function called Cellular Respiration.Whole Dude – Whole Blessings for Whole Vairagya. The Six virtues come into play if and only if the man keeps his physical, mortal existence performing the function of cellular respiration using spiritual knowledge implanted in the living substance of Life.Whole Dude – Whole Blessings for Whole Vairagya. Self-Control, Self-Restraint, Self-Discipline to restrain the mind depend upon the man’s ability to perform the vital, living function called Cellular Respiration.Whole Dude – Whole Blessings for Whole Vairagya: The Practice or Abhyas will be made possible if man is attached to Food to create the chemical energy required to sustain the vital, living functions such as respiration and circulation.
The concept of Whole Vairagya is based upon the following propositions:
Existence (What You Do – the performance of vital, living function called Cellular Respiration) always precedes Essence (What You Are in terms of your acquired Knowledge, Learned Experience, and through your physical, and mental effort or Practice or Abhyas.
Man is a Created Being and is constituted as a Spiritual Being. The Spiritual Knowledge is innate, and is implanted in the Living Substance which performsSpiritual Functions such as Consciousness, and Nutrition for it is aware of its own energy-dependent existence in its given external environment.
Spiritual Knowledge is not acquired through man’s physical or mental work. However, man can discover his own true or real Spiritual nature with the help of the Learning Experience.
The Lord God Creator is present in His entire creation but He remains detached, aloof, disinterested, and may even seem to be estranged from His own creation. But, man is not free and is always trapped by the shackles of conditioned, dependent, earthly existence.
The earthly, mortal, transient, ephemeral, and physical existence of man at any stage of his existence, in good health or ill health depends upon the Unconditioned Love of God who delivers the Whole Blessings of Mercy, Grace, and Compassion even if man is ignorant and is not aware of God’s existence.And,
The man who realizes that he has no deliverance, no liberation, and that there is no release from his bonding, his attachment, his yoking, his partnership, his association, and his spiritual connection with Lord God Creator attains Whole Vairagya or gets detached from the things that derive their existence from attachment to the World.

I was listening to my car radio and the appearance of smoke at World Trade Center was immediately reported by the radio station and gave it undivided attention. I will never forget this tragic event and I will always remember as to what I was doing at the precise moments when this tragic, cowardly, terrorist attacks have come to the attention of all American people.

At 8:45 a.m. on September 11, 2001, an American Airlines Boeing 767, Flight 11, collided into the World Trade Center’s north tower in New York City immediately killing hundreds of people and trapping hundreds more in the 110-story skyscraper. Only 18 minutes later, a second Boeing 767, United Airlines Flight 175, flew into the south tower. Both towers afire, burning debris covered the surrounding buildings and the streets below while hundreds jumped from the towers to their deaths in an attempt to escape. About 30 minutes later, a third plane, American Airlines Flight 77, crashed into the west side of the Pentagon near Washington, D.C. and a fourth plane, United Flight 93, crash-landed into a field in Pennsylvania killing all 40 souls onboard. Meanwhile, both World Trade Center towers collapsed into a terrifying and deadly inferno of rubble.
The Presidents’ Responses
On September 11, 2001, sitting President George W. Bush addressed the nation with a formal statement, “Terrorist attacks can shake the foundations of our biggest buildings, but they cannot touch the foundation of America. These acts shatter steel, but they cannot dent the steel of American resolve.” Eleven days later, the Office of Homeland Security in the White House coordinated a comprehensive national strategy to safeguard the country against terrorism and respond to future attacks. Operation Enduring Freedom, the American-led international effort to oust the Taliban, began on October 7, 2001. Although the Taliban was weakened, the war continued and Osama bin Laden, the mastermind of the 9/11 attacks, remained at large for nearly a decade.
On May 2, 2011, U.S. Special Forces SEAL Team Six invaded bin Laden’s fortress in Abbottabad, Pakistan and took down bin Laden. Sitting President Barack Obama stated, “The death of bin Laden marks the most significant achievement to date in our nation’s effort to defeat al Qaeda.” He added, “his demise should be welcomed by all who believe in peace and human dignity.”
Immediately following this victory, in June 2011, Obama announced withdrawals of troops from Afghanistan. However, in August 2017, sitting President Donald Trump outlined a new plan to increase deployment of American troops into Afghanistan to continue to fight the Taliban.
The Victims
At the hands of 19 militant terrorists associated with the Islamic extremist group al-Qaeda headed by Osama bin Laden, more than 3,000 people (including more than 400 police officers and firefighters) were killed and more than 10,000 others were wounded during the attacks on 9/11. It was the deadliest terrorist act in U.S. history and the most devastating foreign attack on American soil since the attack on Pearl Harbor.
Survivors and family members of survivors have come forward with stories of bravery and triumph. Tens of thousands have suffered. The initial Victim Compensation Fund (in operation from December 2001 to June 2004) received 7,408 applications from 75 countries and made 5,560 awards totaling over $7 billion for both death (2,880) and personal injury (2,680) claims. Awards ranged from $500 to $8.6 million with an average award of $2,082,128, all tax-free.
On January 2, 2011, sitting President Barack Obama signed the James Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Act of 2010 in honor of NYPD detective and first responder James Zadroga who died in 2006 from respiratory problems attributed to the inhalation of toxic dust from the World Trade Center disaster site. Also known as the “First Responders Bill,” this Act expanded the scope of the Victim Compensation Fund to include first responders and individuals who later experienced health problems related to 9/11. More than 20,000 claims have been processed since then and close to $3 billion in compensation for lost wages and other damages related to illness have been rendered.
While there are thousands of known victims and survivors, some remain unknown. The Office of the Chief Medical Examiner of the City of New York has custody of 7,930 unidentified remains of those killed in the attacks. The remains are located in the World Trade Center Repository situated between the two footprints of the Twin Towers on the sacred ground of the World Trade Center site. There is a private Family Reflection Room that is not open to the public. Family members can also speak with World Trade Center anthropologists who can answer questions about the steps they are taking to identify the remains of 9/11 victims.
9/11: Remembrance and Memorials
September 11th is now known as “Patriot Day” in the United States and is observed as the National Day of Service and Remembrance of the victims of the 9/11 attacks. Across the country, numerous events are held on this day to honor the loss of thousands of lives. There are also three somber and beautiful memorial sites dedicated to remembering the victims of 9/11:
America remembers Tuesday, September 11, 2001. And now, these three remain, Faith, Hope, and Love. The Flight 93 Memorial.
• The Flight 93 National Memorial is located at the site of the crash of United Airlines Flight 93 about 2 miles north of Shanksville, Pennsylvania. The memorial honors the 40 passengers and crew who died on 9/11. It features concrete walls outlining the Flight Path Walkway and a white marble Wall of Names. There are also plans to construct a 93-foot tower to designate the entrance of the Flight 93 National Memorial which will contain 40 wind chimes — one for each passenger and crew member who died.
America remembers Tuesday, September 11, 2001. And now, these three remain, Faith, Hope, and Love. The National 9/11 Pentagon Memorial in Arlington, Virginia.
• The National 9/11 Pentagon Memorial located in Arlington, Virginia, honors the loss of 184 people who died on September 11, 2001. Each victim’s age and location at the time of the attack are inscribed into the Memorial starting from the youngest victim, three-year-old Dana Falkenberg, to the oldest, John D. Yamnicky, 71, a Navy veteran, both of whom were aboard American Airlines Flight 77 that morning.

A symbol of strength and resilience here and elsewhere, each year, the 9/11 Memorial gives seedlings from the Survivor Tree to communities that have endured tragedy.
• The National September 11 Memorial & Museum, a nonprofit in New York City, remembers and honors the 2,983 people killed in the horrific attacks as well as hundreds more who risked their lives to save others and all who demonstrated extraordinary compassion in the aftermath of the attacks. It is located at the epicenter of Ground Zero at the World Trade Center site. The names of every person who died in the terrorist attacks are inscribed in bronze panels around two enormous memorial pools with waterfalls that stand in the footprints of where the twin towers once stood. A Callery pear tree that miraculously survived within the rubble of Ground Zero, now known as the “Survivor Tree,” stands tall and thriving nearby. A symbol of strength and resilience here and elsewhere, each year, the 9/11 Memorial gives seedlings from the Survivor Tree to communities that have endured tragedy.

Whole Dude – Whole Original – Whole Analysis: Whole Dude discovers the real or true Man as a Spectrum of Seven Colors. This painting, the Vitruvian Man (c. 1492) by Leonardo da Vinci displays a spirit of scientific inquiry. What is Man? Who is Whole Dude?
The word ‘Whole’ as an adjective describes quality of being healthy, sound, auspicious, not broken, not defective, entire, undivided, complete, containing or constituting the entire amount, or having all of its natural elements. The word ‘Whole’ is also used as a noun to describe a thing or entity that is complete in itself and which lacks none of its parts. Whole Dude is a phrase that refers to Whole Man in all aspects of one’s being, including physical, mental, social, moral, rational, creative and spiritual. The man exists because of functional unity of the entire system and hence the singularity of the multicellular organism called man may not be divided into its constituent parts like body, mind, and soul which have no independent existence of their own.
Whole Dude -Whole Original Whole Analysis – Who is Whole Dude?: White light is perceived as colorless as only a neutral color sensation is aroused by it. White light is composed of every color in the spectrum. Human civilization has developed taste in color and has attached names, values and functions to the colors it visualizes. A sense of fitness has been acquired concerning the use of color.
I prefer the phrase Whole Dude over other often used phrases such as Whole Man, Whole Person, Whole Self, and others. Just like ‘White Light’, the singularity described as Man is in reality a spectrum of seven colors. The seven dimensions of the Man are, 1. The Physical, 2. The Mental, 3. The Social, 4. The Moral, 5. The Spiritual, 6. The Creative, and 7. The Rational.
The description of the Man as a created, spiritual, and rational being is fundamental to defining the Man as a Whole Dude.

We need a methodology to study philosophy and to understand philosophical statements. Logical Positivism, also known as Scientific Empiricism aims to clarify concepts in both everyday and scientific language. It describes analysis of language as the function of philosophy. This analysis of language and of concepts is important to understand questions of belief and ideology which affect what we think we ought to do individually and socially. I use this method of ‘Applied Philosophy’ to analyze the concept of Whole Dude – Whole Planet.

JANUARY 19, THE CELEBRATION OF EDGAR ALLAN POE. SLEEPLESS IN PARIS SAVED BY EVENING IN PARIS. I AM INVITING READERS TO CONTRIBUTE A ROMANTIC STORY TO PARTICIPATE IN WHOLE ASSIGNMENT TITLED “EVENING IN PARIS.”
I am inviting my readers to contribute a romantic story to participate in a Whole Assignment titled “Evening in Paris.” The story celebrates a fictional Archangel’s memorable trip to Paris to rescue a dame in dire distress.
SLEEPLESS IN PARIS SAVED BY EVENING IN PARIS. A STORY INSPIRED BY EDGAR ALLAN POE’S POEM ‘THE RAVEN’. CAN #ARCHANGEL RESCUE MISS POE POSSESSED BY ‘THE DEVIL’?SLEEPLESS IN PARIS SAVED BY EVENING IN PARIS.: “EVENING IN PARIS” IS THE TITLE FOR A SHORT STORY. MY READERS ARE GIVEN THE WHOLE ASSIGNMENT TO COMPLETE THIS STORY THAT FOLLOWS MY BRIEF INTRODUCTION .I AM POETICALLY INSPIRED BY POEM “THE RAVEN” COMPOSED BY EDGAR ALLAN POE .
Edgar Allan Poe (born. January 19, 1809 – died. October 07, 1849) is one of the most brilliant and original writers in American literature. Poe is part of the American Romantic Movement. His short stories are ingenious and profound. Poe often theorized about the art of writing, as in his essay “The Poetic Principle.” In his view, a poem deserves its title only in as much as it excites by elevating the soul. I find that Poetic Inspiration, and excitement in his poem ‘The Raven’:
Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary, over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore –
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
“Tis some visitor,” I muttered, “tapping at my chamber door –
Only this and nothing more.”
“The Raven” reminds me of ‘The Devil’, ‘The Satan’, ‘The Evil Spirit’ about which a Canaanite woman asked Jesus to show His mercy and drive the demon that took possession of her daughter. This parable about her great faith is in The Book of Matthew, Chapter 15, verses 21 to 28.
SLEEPLESS IN PARIS SAVED BY EVENING IN PARIS. : EVENING IN PARIS IS A SHORT STORY POETICALLY INSPIRED BY EDGAR ALLAN POE’S POEM “THE RAVEN.” IT IS ABOUT THE DEMON THAT TOOK POSSESSION OF THE YOUNG DAUGHTER OF THIS CANAANITE WOMAN WHO IS PLEADING JESUS TO SHOW HIS MERCY .
The New Testament Book of Matthew, Chapter 15, verse# 22 : “LORD, Son of David, have mercy on me! My daughter is suffering terribly from demon possession.” Both man and woman may become the victims of evil spirits or demons which can keep the mind troubled and prevent the joy or happiness obtained by good sleep. Man or woman need the help of a guardian angel to fight the demon that may trouble their hearts.
Evening In Paris (#EveningInParis) is a short story about a young woman by name Miss. Poe (“Sleepless in Paris”) whose heart is troubled by a ‘Demon’ who keeps her awake all night denying her good sleep.
Just like “Saint Michael” who is prominent in Jewish, Christian, and Muslim traditions, the fictional “Archangel” is a young, handsome man who protects and serves young women by defending their Happiness and Excellence in whatever they do. He trains, instructs, and provides information that lets the young women to achieve excellence in their work performance and ensures happiness in their daily lives. #Archangel provides care and comfort to make sure that the young women get a chance to enjoy good sleep. Our “#Archangel” is the only certified “Whole Kisser” in the entire nation and perhaps in the entire world. “#Archangel” operates a Bedtime Reading Program in which he reads from his book ‘Conscious Capitalism’ and puts the young lady to sleep and delivers a ‘Whole Kiss’ as a blessing. ‘Whole Kiss’ is the most ‘Perfect Kiss’ ever described in entire human literature. Fairy Tales like ‘Sleeping Beauty’, ‘Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, ‘ Frog Prince’ describe kisses that worked like miracles changing the fortunes of people. But none of those Fairy Tale Kisses come close to ‘Whole Kiss’ in terms of Perfection.

Indian Armed Forces
India covertly tested its nuclear arsenal in the early 1970s and late 1990s without the CIA even knowing what was happening. Till date, it is considered to be one of the CIA’s biggest failures in espionage and detection.
Facts About The Indian Armed Forces That’ll Make You Respect Them Even More
The Indian Armed Forces, consisting of the Indian Army, the Indian Air Force, the Indian Navy and the Indian Coast Guard are India’s shield and sword, which keep our interests safe, our enemies at bay and the people of our country secure and free. They are respected and adored for their valor and sense of duty by the entire country. Many of us would know about their triumphs and stellar contributions to civilian life. But here are a few facts which will increase your respect for the Indian military ten-fold.
1. India controls the highest battlefield in the world, the Siachen glacier, at 5000 meters above Mean Sea Level (MSL).
2. India has the biggest “voluntary” army in the world.

All serving and reserve personnel have actually “opted” for service. There is a provision for conscription (forced recruitment) in the constitution, but it has never been used.
3. Indian soldiers are considered among the very best in high altitude and mountain warfare.

The Indian army’s High Altitude Warfare School (HAWS) is one of the most elite military training centers in the world and is frequented by Special Ops teams from the U.S, U.K & Russia. U.S Special Forces trained at HAWS before their deployment during the invasion of Afghanistan.

6. In the Battle of Longewala, on which the famous Bollywood movie “Border” is based, there were only two casualties on the Indian side.
The Battle of Longewala was fought in December 1971 between India and Pakistan, in which just 120 Indian Soldiers with 1 jeep mounted M40 recoilless rifle held the fort against 2000 Pakistani soldiers backed by 45 tanks and 1 mobile infantry brigade. Despite being heavily out-numbered, the Indian soldiers held their ground throughout the night and with the help of the Air Force, were able to completely rout the aggressors.

I WISH TO ADD THE FOLLOWING AS AN HONORARIUM TO ALL OUR SOLDIERS (RECEIVED FROM A FRIEND)
On behalf of Special Frontier Force. Establishment 22, Vikas Regiment, I am very pleased to share this post on the Indian Armed Forces.
THE FINAL INTERVIEW WITH GOD.
MOST TOUCHING THE FINAL INSPECTION The soldier stood and faced God, which must always come to pass. He hoped his shoes were shining, Just as brightly as his brass.
‘Step forward now, you soldier, How shall I deal with you? Have you always turned the other cheek? To My Church have you been true?’
The soldier squared his shoulders and said, ‘No, Lord, I guess I isn’t. Because those of us who carry guns, Can’t always be a saint.
I’ve had to work most Sundays, And at times my talk was tough. And sometimes I’ve been violent, Because the world is awfully rough.
But, I never took a penny, That wasn’t mine to keep… Though I worked a lot of overtime, When the bills got just too steep.
And I never passed a cry for help, Though at times I shook with fear. And sometimes, God, forgive me, I’ve wept unmanly tears.
I know I don’t deserve a place, Among the people here. They never wanted me around, Except to calm their fears.
If you’ve a place for me here, Lord, It needn’t be so grand. I never expected or had too much, But if you don’t, I’ll understand.
There was a silence all around the throne, Where the saints had often trod. As the soldier waited quietly, For the judgment of his God.
‘Step forward now, you soldier, You’ve borne your burdens well. Walk peacefully on Heaven’s streets, You’ve done your time in Hell.’

Whole Team Members are not finding Happiness in Life for they lost the habit of reading Good Books. They do not recognize “VALUE” of reading Good Books and they do not acknowledge the “Whole Value” of owning Good Books.
WHOLE TEAM – WHOLE DEAL – WHOLE STORY : #WHOLEDEAL WHOLE TEAM MEMBERS LIVE IN HOMES WITHOUT GOOD BOOKS. IT IS LIKE LIVING IN A BODY WITHOUT SOUL. WHOLEDUDE WANTS TO ENCOURAGE WHOLE TEAM MEMBERS TO OWN GOOD BOOKS.
During this Holiday Season, no Whole Team Member has purchased a book to give it as a gift, and no Whole Team Member has received a Good Book as a gift. WholeDude wants to encourage Whole Team Members to own Good Books.

To encourage Whole Team Members to learn about the Whole Value of Reading Books, WholeDude has resolved to offer a Whole Deal. WholeDude is conscious of the fact that a Whole Team Leader has a huge collection of Comic Books that are carefully preserved in the basement of his house. WholeDude wants to awaken the Whole Consciousness of Whole Team Members to gain maturity and Wisdom using the ancient Mystic Practice of India called the ‘KUNDALINI YOGA’. “CONSCIOUS CAPITALISM” is a Good Book and it is based on the Whole Idea of awakening the Coiled Serpent called “KUNDALINI” that rests at the base of Spine in a dormant condition.
