GREETINGS

Pranamam Swamiji I am a patient detected with bipolar disorder and under medication for twenty years. Intermittently i fall into depression when i get affected emotionally. The medicines are getting increased as the years go by. I have been listening and following your discourses for the last five years. I feel inspired but i feel i have not gained the strength to withstand my emotions or switch from emotion to intelligence. I am able to understand from the discourses that the more the mind is silent the more the connection with the PAramatma. Nama Japam and Meditation are the ways that you have advised to progress in the spiritual path.Unfortunately my doctor says that i should not meditate throughout my life. In the above circumstances i kindly seek your advise on how to progress in my spiritual path. I feel desperate and want to get of the mess created. Is Nama Japam alone alongwith understanding the scriptures enough for a person like me?
