NEW STRATEGY FOR MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES OF THE RURAL MASS

RATAN SINGH.


Abstract
The crucial demographic facts pertaining to the distribution of types of mental illness in different socio-economic strata have been cited on the basis of which a logic to at least partly meet the Alma Ata declaration of "Health For All by the Year 2000" has been evolved. Thus it has been deduced that all the registered medical practitioners, particularly the traditional Ayurvedic physicians, should be imparted three months' courses in the use of major tran¬quilizers, antidepressants and E. C. T. to treat psychoses, which are the real mental illnesses. Regarding promotion of mental health. which is realistically related to our another demographic variable, namely, the rural-youth unemployment, :t is argued that proper are religious preaching of Gita's Karma Yoga and modal social psychological projects will mould the un¬employed youth into a mentally healthy "Karma Yogi" similar to the entrepreneurial perso¬nality described in modern psychology. Psychological experiments done in India have been cited to convey the psychological know-how that goes into the shaping of a Karma Yogi¬ Entrepreneurial, Task-oriented Personality".
