The sudden cataclysms that occur in nature creating havoc and mass injury are not 'acts of God'. Diseases of body and mind, the equally alarming diseases affecting our family, society, economic stability and ecological threats to the earth - all these arise from a lack of accord with essential harmony and unity of the cosmos whether on a personal, community, national or planetary level. Whenever the world's vibrating balances of good and evil is disturbed by an accumulation of harmful vibrations as a result of man's wrong thinking and wrong doing, we see devastations. We are beginning to see that we are not helpless victims of randomly chaotic cosmos; rather the thoughts and actions of man are responsible for this imbalance. Unfortunately stress has fast paced life, and our attraction to external rather than internal reality has drawn out silence from hearts, minds and cell of our bodies.

The negligence of mental health in the contemporary society has led to the bewildering complexities. Faced with these challenges of the modern and competitive world, which is degenerating man, we need to create awareness about understanding the complexities of human behaviour and application of psychological interventions to contribute meaningfully to the purpose of human existence. We need to learn to integrate our thoughts, emotions and actions in a more harmonious manner to lead more balanced and stress free life. As it has rightly been stated by Lord Buddha, 'All that we are, is the result of our thoughts, the world is made up our thoughts'

aips offers unique programs in counselling psychology and Psychology sciences to create broad awareness, as tools for achieving holistic health. We believe positive thinking and positive human behaviour are pre-requisite in the promotion of health, prevention of diseases and building human strengths. The goal is to experience it in our self and realize our true nature to access one's full potential to become fully functional human being.

I believe ultimately it is the disposition of our minds and our motivations that determine the direction of constructive or destructive progress of our humanity.

Let us commit ourselves to work for just, peaceful, happy and nonviolent world, to make true human society.
