Science and Philosophy - 3


 After starting this blog this is the first time I am trying to write something in total English. Basically it is not that you should not write in English but never I was comfortable writing in this medium. It was after the chat I had with RK yesterday night I thought of doing so. He wanted to forward my blog link to some other friends of him who don't know Telugu. To that extent I was convinced, that if a thought is to be shared with all friends and has to reach wider audience from where different ideas and views pour in, then why not.


Coming back to the point the discoveries and inventions by humans never stopped at any point of time. They were continually in search of various things which can be of use to them. One such path breaking invention after fire is that of a wheel.

Now at this point of time what I felt is, if I start writing about each and every discovery/invention then it will be one more Encyclopaedia with all details and unlimited posts. The point what I want to drive home is the way science advancement leads to GOD.

My conceptualization of GOD as it was given in the earlier post - 
In Bhagavad-Gita, Krishna repeatedly says that when the yogi realizes that all this existence is just a variegated manifestation of Brahma, he assumes sambhava, and thus he integrates himself with Brahma, he attains the state of Brahma, a state of infinite peace and bliss. 
Thus Brahma is not a deity, it is not a god, and it is nothing supernatural. Brahma is all that we are, and the abstract cause of all that is, it is a concept which has to be understood, realized and felt, not just to be worshipped. 
What I write in this regard needs to be questioned, argued, evaluated and understood. Before going in depth let me detail you in brief of various subjects that evolved out of the research human does. 

Maths, Physics, Chemistry, Biology are the major branches which we start reading from childhood without knowing where they will lead to, and majority never try to understand in their lifetime for what they are required. 

Some definitions I collected from Wikipedia’s different sections are clubbed together to emphasize the fact what I am driving to.

Mathematics is the study of quantity, structure, space and change. Mathematicians seek out patterns, formulate new conjectures, and establish truth by rigorous deduction from appropriately chosen axioms and definitions.

Physics is a natural science that involves the study of matter and its motion through space time as well as related concepts, including energy and force. More broadly it is the general analysis of nature conducted in order to understand how the universe behaves.

Chemistry is the science of the matter and changes it undergoes. It is also addressed by Physics, but while physics takes a more general and fundamental approach, chemistry is more specialized, being concerned with the composition, behaviour (or reaction), structure and properties of matter, as well as it changes it undergoes during chemical reactions. It is a physical science which studies various substances, atoms, molecules, crystals and other aggregates of matter whether in isolation or combination.

Biology is a natural science concerned with the study of life and living organisms including their structure, function, growth, origin, evolution, distribution and taxonomy.

These subjects are inseparable even if they are read under different heads and are derived from in and around human and the definitions are result of refinement of thought process of human.

  3. Kamesh sir
    Now i have three things in mind
    1) let us segment our blog.In my opinion it has four diffrent segments-Autobiographical, Political, Scientific Philosophy and literature.If you like this (or you have any other classification), let us customize our blog first. Then it acquires the flow you feel
    2) This discussion of objective of science bieng realizing god is really thought provoking and properly channelized will prove to be a land mark.
    3)Now, when Ramakrishna parama hamsa solved swami vivekananda's doubt by saying " 'Because I see Him just as I see you here, only in a much intenser sense". I feel this is very much near and similar to the new thought line.

    thk you sir for writing something sensible and making me think about the reality of god
