Protoplasm, the ground substance, or the corporeal material of lifeforms provides the ‘spiritual’ basis for existence.
There is an Unchanging Spiritual Nature common to all Living Things. Man cannot acquire “Higher” Nature through listening to religious preachings. In the same way, Man cannot alter or “Lower” his Nature by listening to religious preachings. There can be several good reasons to study Scriptures like Torah, Bible, Quran, The Bhagavad Gita, and others. For God created Man with predetermined Nature using Unchanging Laws, Man can only seek to know his True or Real Nature by submission to God’s Will.
You cannot change Nature without changing its Essence. Salt derives its taste from Chemical Elements Sodium and Chlorine combined in Definite Proportions. Good, Passionate, and Ignorant people experience the same taste as they have no ability to change or alter the Chemical Composition of Chemical Compound called Salt.

Philosophy of Medicine – Lesson. 22 – The Chemical Basis of Life and Spirituality
If this Chemical Compound Carbon Dioxide, a gas that has the potential to cause Death, can impart ‘SWEETNESS’ to a substance that we recognize as ‘SUGAR’, it speaks about the potency that I describe as ‘Spiritual Interaction’ between the Elements of Life.
Philosophy of Medicine – Lesson. 21 – Who am I?
Aristotle – born 384 BC and died 322 BC. His Metaphysics brings about the convergence of Philosophy, Religion, and Science.
For scientific knowledge, we need to know the governing principles of a subject and deduction from these principles provides not only the knowledge that something is true but also the reason as to why it is true. Aristotle is recognized as the Father of Science and he defined Science as a deductive system based on evident axioms.
Aristotle’s Metaphysics, and Plato’s Dialectic describe a method of inquiry that deals with the nature and relation of things – What each is, how it differs from others, what common qualities all have, to what kind each belongs, and in what rank each stands in its kind and whether its being is real-being, and how many beings there are, and how many non-beings to be distinguished from beings.
Philosophy of Medicine – Lesson. 20 – Reflections on Life and Death
All living organisms that begin their lives using the generative mechanism called sexual reproduction begin their life-span as a single, fertilized Egg Cell. This Generative Mechanism is a Creative Process and has remained Unchanged for Millions of years.
Philosophy of Medicine – Lesson. 19 – Rational vs Irrational Belief
Science provides verified knowledge to establish rational beliefs. But, Science can not provide the experience of Reality if the Reality is masked by the Power of ILLUSION.
Philosophy of Medicine – Lesson. 18 – The Magic of Creation revealed by Phytochemistry
The Magic of Creation can be interpreted from an understanding of Photochemistry and Phytochemistry. Photochemistry provides information about light and matter interactions in the material world where the living things survive using directly, or indirectly the energy trapped by photosynthetic organisms. Phytochemistry provides information about the creation, or the synthesis of chemical molecules by plants which are not endowed with organs of special sensation.
The recognition of smell indicates the presence of something; the something is called Divine Providence.
Philosophy of Medicine – Lesson. 17 – The Material Basis of Spirit and Life
Man exists in physical world not because of the abilities of his physical or mental work. The separation of Matter and Spirit as two distinct entities will not help us to understand the reality of human existence. Man has to know that there is no disunity between Matter and Spirit.
Life means the experience of Peace, Harmony, Tranquility, Hope, Fear, Love, Joy, and Wisdom. The problem of Death is experienced as a Fear as Death means the inability to have the subjective experiences associated with Life. But, man does not exist in the physical world because of the abilities of his physical, or mental work. Man exists because of the nature of Matter, and Spirit and this nature is only an extension of the Divine Nature.
Philosophy of Medicine – Lesson. 16 – Life is neither created nor destroyed by Man
Yes Indeed, Life is Complicated. The complexity of Life involves the perplexing problem of Death. But, I ask my readers to meditate on the phenomenon called Life by understanding the designing of Matter and Spirit.
Life can neither be created nor destroyed by man. Life is established by the Principle called Spirit which is related to the unchanging or immutable nature of Matter.
The indestructibility of matter was explained by Lavoisier as the Law of Conservation. “We may lay it down as an incontestable axiom,” Lavoisier writes, “that in all the operations of art and nature, nothing is created; an equal quantity of matter exists both before and after the experiment.” What appears to be the destruction of a body is merely the transformation of its matter into another physical condition, without loss of mass unless there is an equivalent gain in energy. The total quantity of matter and energy remains constant throughout all physical changes. Material substances undergo changes when they interact with other material substances, but this “change” cannot be described as the permanent reality. The permanent reality describes the unchanging, or constant nature of chemical elements and molecules in spite of their tendency to interact with other elements and molecules.
Philosophy of Medicine – Lesson. 14 – The phenomenon of illumination – Man is Spiritually Blind
Photochemical reactions that play a vital role in biological systems are called Photobiological processes. Photochemistry establishes relationship between the laws of Physics, and Chemistry with the living functions to synchronize the interactions between Light and Matter that is important for Life to exist on planet Earth.
Photoreception is an intelligent function that leads to immanent actions in which the living thing senses, grows, and develops performing those actions. Photoreception in living things is unlike the mechanical action performed by a camera made by man. Photoreception is created to synchronize the existence of the two major systems of life; plants and animals perform their living functions to complement the functions and actions of each other. Hence Photoreception could be described as the spiritual basis for all kinds of existence on planet Earth.
Philosophy of Medicine – Lesson. 13 -Photoreception is a Spiritual Function
The ability called Photoreception is the fundamental basis for all kinds of existence on planet Earth. Plants have the ability of Perception of Spiritual Light.
Photoreception can only be interpreted as a Spiritual Function as the Knowledge to perform and use the function to create new Organic Molecules cannot be acquired through the Learning Process; no Teacher can teach it and no Book can impart this Knowledge.
