Beyond
a certain depth, the mechanistic deception evaporates and
is replaced by a science we haven’t the faintest clue.
Almost the entire living world operates at its core with
a science that is out-worldly and downright mystical. It
can be compared to a machine which is outwardly all gears
and grease, but in reality is powered by a motor which slyly
drawn in power from concealed wired abuzz with 240 volts
of electricity. In a similar fashion, a fiery energy termed
'spiritual energy' powers all living entities. The operative
word here is indeed 'deception' and a person who is able
to see through this deception is called 'self realized.'
A
walk down a garden path or forest invariably leads to a mystical
experience. Seeds with micro fine hooks so carefully engineered,
snags in your socks or shirt sleeve, are enough to enraptures
you and exclaim in wondrous delight, “How is it that the
entire blue-print of a giant tree in its exact character is
contained within its tiny seed?” “Who has created
these?”… “Whose cosmic intelligence is it
that I see?” In short, for the price of a pleasurable
walk in the garden, you get a tiny glimpse of the creator. From
a Vedic perspective this communion with nature elevates your
consciousness. You would have taken a few steps in your consciousness
evolution and as such can look forward to more rewarding next
life.
A
walk in the forest has now denigrated into a mundane 'regurgitating
science' experience when it easily could have been a richly
rewarding (even in dollar terms) communion with nature.
Thank you science.
Cut
to a different scene. You take the same walk. The garden path
still offers its prize, but this time around, it triggers an
altogether different response in your mind. Seeds will still
get entangled in your hair, but instead of it triggering a profound
mystical experience, a deluge of scientific data (that you had
picked up in school, college, workplace, etc) will stifle that
mystical experience. Scientists will siddle in as the self-appointed
caretakers of the universe, laying claim to having discovered
this and that. And, while you yourself are engrossed in awakening
the latent scientist within you, the supreme scientist, the
person who actually created it all, made all those complicated
calculations, painstakingly engineered all those delightful
hooks on that seed*, will shyly slip away.
This
time around your gain is miniscule: one happy trip down science
lane. But your loss, unfortunately, is colossal: Goaded by misleading
science, you will degrade in consciousness and therefore probably
regress. You might even loose the opportunity to be born again
as a human. In short, your loss is immeasurable.
But
of course, this is a Vedic calculation. You can console yourself
that nay, ‘I don’t believe afterlife, I don’t
believe in karma…I believe in science and scientists.
If you are one of those staunch supporter of science, here is
a news flash for you. Often the mechanistic explanation given
by scientists of how things work in nature are hopelessly inadequate
and downright dubious. It is not at all a tick-tock, tick-tock
kind of a mechanistic world that we live in. The truer picture
is it is a far more extraterrestrial kind of sciences out there,
in there, (meaning in your body) and just about everywhere.
Nothing is as the scientists explain it to be. Which is why,
all our working sciences are fundamentally based on experiments.
You poke prod, pour acid, and do just about all the basic stuff
you did when you were a boy, and record the results. These result
with an odd theory or two chasing after them is all the science
we can boast off. The truth is there is a lot going on out there
that they cannot explain by their antiquated, cog-wheel sciences.
If you have swallowed all these tall stories told by the scientists
and realigned your allegiance and thinking based on their pastdated
claims, you are in for a lot of trouble.
The
reality is what is out there is hard-core mysticism that will
burn your socks right off your feet. Everything is appears simplistic
and mechanistic but in truth is powered by a fiery energy that
behaves in anything but materialistic fashion. Even simple thing
which we supposedly know is hotwired with this fiery energy.
You
are familiar with how medicines help cure the body, right? Now,
if you ask the scientists, they will reel out their version
of how it works. The allopathic will give you the chemical warfare
theory which exemplifies the gross western approach to all things.
The homeopaths too cure diseases. But their explanation is diametrically
different. They will give you the theory of use the barest minimum
and how it triggers the bodies’ defence mechanism. But
you know what? Neither the maximalists nor the minimalists have
a clue. If they did, surely two diametrically opposite theories
will not be doing the rounds. Which is why the allopaths have
to have monkeys to test and homeopaths, foolhardy practitioners
willing to risk proving medicines on themselves. Without them
there can be no medicines. What actually happens can be said
to be taken straight out of an extraterrestrial movie. Buzz,
sizzle, sizzle, crackle, crackle…and magically, mystically
the body rights itself. Medicines do play a part; but the mechanics
of the process is entirely unknown.
Or,
take digestion for example. We digest food with the help of
strong acids. Nevertheless, these highly concentrated acids
do not digest the stomach itself…ah, as long as we are
alive. The minute we die, the first thing to go is the stomach…which
is immediately destroyed by these very acids that has been kept
at bay by some mystical process. There are literally thousands
of such examples.
The
fact is beyond a certain depth, the mechanistic deception (yes,
this is right, deception) evaporates and is replaced by a science
we haven’t the faintest clue. Almost the entire living
world operates at its core with a science that is out-worldly
and downright mystical. And the curious fact is outwardly it
almost always poses as a cause and effect equation and can be
compared to a machine which is outwardly all gears and grease,
but in reality is powered by a motor which slyly drawn in power
from concealed wired abuzz with 240 volts of electricity. In
a similar fashion, a fiery energy termed 'spiritual energy'
powers all living entities. The operative word here is indeed
'deception' and a person who is able to see through this deception
is called 'self realized.'
Bottom
line is modern science is up to its eye-balls with the instances
of mysticism. But the sad fact is that scientists dread revealing
it to us laymen. Instead, they fumble, stumble and make do with
their primitive and grossly mechanistic science to explain what
is patently a mystical process. They avidly, almost fanatically
block it out; they go to great lengths to keep this fact hidden
from the world. So much so that, even new-age spiritual gurus
Deepak Chopra, purportedly wise in the ways of the world, erroneously
believes that: "God leaves no footprints!" But oh,
he does, Mr. Chopra, and it’s everywhere! It's just that
our scientists go after him and carefully wipes them off! They
have effectively blinded us, impoverished us with their lame
science. End.

Some seeds come with tiny hooks that
tangle in your clothes and hair. Others have aerodynamically
designed propellers designed to float of to distant shores.
Still others explode, to scatter its seeds... The emphasis
here is 'specialized engineering,' which by its complicated
nature, warrants 'many hours sitting behind a drawing board.'
In other words, it not the cheap, 'let there be light' kind
of engineering that is generally attributed to God and which
he accomplish with the snap of his fingers, and by which we
are the least impressed. No, this is a different calibre of
work, and for these God would have had to really really rack
his brain. Its all calculus and brain-numbing science with
acres and acres of calculations. In short, there is so specialized
engineering in nature that modern engineers threat it as a
source book and assiduously mine ideas from it. Needless to
add, amongst all man-made designs, probably there isn't one
original, which man can claim his own.
