MODERN SCIENCE AND HINDUISM

Today the whole world is at war. Behind this war, the main causes are unscientific and non wholesome views of Religions. It is a matter of serious concern that if the NATURE IS ONE, THE HUMANITY IS ONE,GOD IS ALSO ONE, THEN HOW THERE CAN BE RELIGIONS MORE THAN ONE? At best there may be techniques of prayer more than one. SUM TOTAL OF MODERN SCIENCES

Let us sum up the following Sciences:Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Anatomy, Physiology, Bio-physics, Bio-chemistry and Human Psychology. The human psychology covers the Thinking Mind, the Intelligence, the Subconscious,(where the memories are stored) and lastly the EGO. By adding up the knowledge received from these Sciences, we get the data concerning following six layers of human system.1Physical body.2Energy creating, Sustaining and destroying the human cells.3Thinking Mind.4.Intelligence.5.Sub-Conscious.and 6.Ego.There are two more faculties experienced by the Rishis. for which the modern Science is still striving. These layers are known as 1Ananda.(Ever lasting Happiness) And 2.Spirit.These faculties were perceived by the Rishis, when they touched the zero state of mind during meditation. This is how the actual built up of Human Body or the Scientific and wholesome view of human system was known. In Vedic terminology it is called as the knowledge about PIND. Now let us sum up the Sciences giving us knowledge about Godly Creation. GODLY CREATION On the same pattern as above, the following Sciences When put together provide us knowledge about Godly Creation of the whole Universe. 1.Astronomy:-It tells us about the motion of heavenly bodies in the huge Space including that of our Galaxy known as Aakashganga. It includes the events of crashing and amalgamation of galaxies with each other. 2.Astrophysics:- It is the part of Astronomy and tells us about physical construction of the galaxies, that is, the estimated no. of Stars, the Planets and huge raw material moving round in the Space forming galaxies. and explosions of stars, releasing huge amount of Energy etc 3.Cosmology:-It tells us about the kinds of galaxies in the Universe, their formation, the type and the arrangement of Stars including that in our GALAXY and its behaviour etc.

. 4 Relativity:-It tells us that in this universe every entity is in motion and their motions are relative to each other. THE TIME AND SPACE ARE SAME ENTITIES.. 5.Quantum Physics and Quantum Mechanics:-These Sciences tell us how Particles are created in the Space and simultaneously absorbed also. 6Unified Field theory:-It tells us, that there has to be an unifying force controlling the following four Forces working in the Universe. -1Electromagnetic Force.2Strong Force.3.Gravitational Force. And 4Weak Force.The Science is yet struggling hard to prove this Theory, whereas the Rishis have solved this issue and named this unifying Force as BRAHMAN. All these various entities form an Electromagnetic Spectrum having varying frequencies in the Space. Similar as detailed in case of human system, there exist six layers and they are in the form of colours popularly known as VIBGYOR. lying within the VISIBLE RANGE of light frequency that is,1014 to 1015 cycles per second. These frequencies at MACRO level have been Iconised and named by the Rishis as described below:1Physical Body(STHUUL SHAREER):- The Planets and huge solid mass lying with in the solar family has been named as STHUUL SHAREER) of BRAHMAN. 2.The Energy released by our SUN existing as the integral part of our Aakashganga has been named as the PRANA..3.The moon as the thinking mind.4.The BRAHMA (SUN) represents the Intelligence of BRAHMAN. 5.Lord Vishnu represents sub-conscious mind and 6.Lord Shiva is the symbol of Ego of BRAHMAN.(Refer Shree Raamcharit Manas-vi/15). Now similar to the human formation,the Godly Creation, known as BRAHAMAND in Vedic terminology also contains other two faculties, that is,Constant Happiness (ANANDA) and finally the BRAHMAN.Now on combining both sums, it was revealed to the Rishis, that the events taking place at human (PIND) level are exactly identical to those whatever are taking place at Macro (BRAHAMAND) level. This is how an excellent world known Equation,-YATHA PINDE TATHA BRAHMANDE (AS THE MICROCOSM, SO THE MACROCOSM) became the foundation of ADVAIT philosophy of Vedas.. This Scientific Equation was then transcribed into Literature, and was expressed in four well known Mantras as under:1TATWAMASI.2.SOHAM. 3,AYAM ATMA BRAHMAN.AND 4.AHAM BRAHMASMI. This ADVAIT Philosophy wholly stands on Scientific footings and represents the wholesome view of Religion. NOTE: The formation of the above equation is the peak of knowledge and is the bright side of modern science. This is why all Hindu Scriptures have unanimously declared Scientist as the Supreme,(Refer Shree Raamcharit manas between verse no.85-86 of chapter vii and Shreemad Bhagwad Geeta of vii/2-3,ix/1-2 and x/10).The reason is that without having the total view of Godly Creation and the human system, we can never visualise the wholesome knowledge of the

Universe and the Human life, therefore one can not gain the knowledge how to go across the cycle of life and death. However several people have prejudices against Modern Science, because they are aware only the dark side of modern Science. The dark side is the exorbitant increase in crimes due to misuse of Science and lust for money for enjoying worldly pleasures. The Advait philosophy teaches prayer of Formless GOD.(Refer Article no. 1-Shree Sanatan Dharm through scientific eye). This practice was in vogue during Satyuga,which finally led to salvation.There are sects within Hinduism, who also preach prayer of formless God. ISLAAM also teaches prayer of Formless God. Hinduism, therefore has no conflict with ISLAAM. SIMPLIFICATION PROCESS IN HINDUISM To make masses understand GOD, Rishi Vishwamitra, through Gayatri (Refer Essay no.2 of Essays in our site.) proposed the principle of Iconisation. The PRINCIPLE OF SYMBOLISATION(ICONISATION) BECAME POPULAR AMONG THE MASSES DUE TO:1.It is not only simple, but can impart Liberation (not salvation) and worldly pleasures too. 2.This Research led to writing of most of the Hindu Scriptures on the basis of Symbols, specially the Puranas have been written in the form of stories and the characters used in the stories are the gods, goddesses and demons. From modern point of view, it is actually the digital technology. Today the computer has shaken the whole world, because it has been constructed on the basis of merely two SYMBOLS, that is zero and one. Thus the formless God was brought within the range of sense organs and this paved the way of simplification of Vedic Philosophy. Thus varieties of gods and goddesses were scientifically designed and were placed in a temple for worship. This evolution was a beautiful synthesis of Science (Colour), Arts (Dress +Armaments) and Literature (Qualities).Unfortunately the society took them as true events and the people completely sub merged into the beauty of Arts and Literature, that is they highlighted CULTURAL aspect only and totally forgot SCIENCE. The main cause of sufferings of HINDUS today is that we have totally ignored Science. SIMPLIFICATION PROCESS IN ISLAAM Originally in Macca, there were 360 idols around Kaba in addition to one round shaped stone existing even today in the centre having black colour. It is said that this round shaped stone descended from heaven and was originally of white colour. It is also said that when this white stone will become completely black, then it will be the day near to the day of KAYAMAT or the day of judgement.About1500 years before, each idol was worshiped by one Kabila. These Kabilas constantly engaged themselves in bloody battles for establishing superiority of their God. The Prophet, therefore, got these idols dismantled.(Refer-Muslim Hadeesh- ChapterRemoval of Idols Volume III/4397-Page-1197) However to settle the issue, the Prophet therefore preached the most simplified technique of prayer called NAMAAZ. The prayer was aimed for ALLAH, the formless GOD and IDOL worship was strictly prohibited. The simplification had to be restricted to suit the climatic conditions,the food habits, taste and aptitude of the masses. This prayer has been prescribed to be

performed five times in a day.There are other disciplines also recorded in HADEESH (A book of disciplines).Till this point HINDUISM has no conflict with ISLAAM. It appears that to spread the message of worship of formless God faster, the use of force was permitted and the martyrs were guaranteed the enormous pleasures of Heaven. Since hatred, enmity and violence can in no way be the basis of any Religion, therefore if ISLAAM drops paragraphs expressing hatred, enmity and violence against all those, who are disbelievers, then ISLAAM will become the Religion of Peace. Similarly Religious heads of Christianity should also be brought on dialogue table and issues settled once for all. Indian system of solving the Religious crisis in past has been SHASTRARTH, that is INTER FAITH discussion across the table. (Refer Article no.2-Solution of Terrorism) Let all Patriot Indians insist for Scientific Religion only, because Science has no prejudices and is based on evidences. This very method will then become the basis of world peace. Let us all pray, that for the sake of fraternity, Solidarity and Integrity of the Nation,the people will come forward and take early action.
