When the natural healing process is considered as a divine gift, all medical interventions begin with a prayerful thought to invoke the blessings of healing.
Since the human body is constituted by building blocks called Cells, the understanding of Life demands the use of microscope. Philosophy of Medicine while exploring the nature of human existence provides the understanding of the vital connections that establish, maintain, and sustain human existence. Such understanding provides a sensory experience called ‘Madhurya’, a sensation of Sweetness which enables man to function better and overcome obstacles.

Philosophy of Medicine – Lesson. 70 – The Phenomenon of Illumination
Light of Lights – The Phenomenon of Illumination and the Phenomenon of Knowing.
THE LIGHT IS THE SOURCE OF ILLUMINATION. THE KNOWLEDGE IS THE OBJECT OF ILLUMINATION. THE MIND IS THE OBSERVER OF ILLUMINATION. THERE IS UNITY BETWEEN THE SOURCE, THE OBJECT KNOWN, THE KNOWER TO MANIFEST THE PHENOMENA OF KNOWING.
The man’s ability of Sensory Perception called Vision, and the ability of Inner Vision are of secondary importance as Existence depends directly on the act of Breathing and the Lord or Prabhu provides Knowledge for performing that act of Breathing. The True Self or Atman illuminates me if it is connected to Lord or Prabhu, the Original Source of Light.
Philosophy of Medicine – Lesson. 69 – The Fluid Concept of Mind
Yes indeed, Life is Complicated. The complexities of Life involve the ability to process information and converting the mental process into actions performed by man. I am recommending the Fluid Concept of Mind or Mental Fluidity to Set Your Mind Free.
The Mental Fluidity helps in the communication of thoughts and other mental activities to perform actions such as Speech, Reading, Writing, in Arts, Music and all other actions where the brain and body have to work together. In the Indian tradition, the concept of mental fluidity is emphasized to prevent the problems of mental Burnout, mental inertia, mental lethargy, and as a practical tool to efficiently assimilate the information acquired by the Learning Process.
Philosophy of Medicine – Lesson. 68 – Tarangini – The Wave Theory of Immortality
The attribute called “LIFE” exists as long as the waves (TARANG) continue to move and remain in motion. I would like to draw an analogy between the fluidity that manifests as a flowing stream and the fluidity of a mind that lets a ‘thought wave’ to propagate. The propagation of ‘thought waves’ across generational lines describes my Wave Theory of Immortality.
Human Language has the Spiritual attribute called Immortality for it includes the thoughts shared by the living and the dead and extends to those as yet unborn. Human Civilization can be described as the Civilization of Dialogue and the conversation continues from one generation to the next as if man is not a perishable creature. Plato observes, “thought and speech are the same, with this exception, that which is called thought is the unuttered conversation of the Soul with itself.”

Philosophy of Medicine – Lesson. 66 – Can Terrorism Define Human Nature? America Lives on Faith, Hope and Love in Remembrance of 9-11
Can Terrorism define man? Man may experience Fear when taken by surprise of a terrorist attack but Man’s Spiritual Essence is defined by Faith, Hope and Love.
I remember Tuesday morning September 11, 2001 when American Airlines Boeing 767 flight 11 plane crashed into North Tower of World Trade Center in New York City at 8.45 A.M. I was driving on south bound lanes of US 23 on my way to Ypsilanti City giving ride to a friend who was returning home after he finished his work in Plymouth City, Michigan. I was listening to my car radio and the appearance of smoke at World Trade Center was immediately reported by the radio station and gave it undivided attention. I will never forget this tragic event and I will always remember as to what I was doing at the precise moments when this tragic, cowardly, terrorist attacks have come to the attention of all American people.
Philosophy of Medicine – Lesson. 65 – Reflections on Human Nature vs Human Behavior on 25th Anniversary of 9-11 Terrorist Attacks
On Friday, September 11, 2026, the 25th Anniversary of 911 attacks on the United States, I reflect on the consonance and dissonance in human nature vs human behavior. The serenity and nobility of the site in Pennsylvania depicts the dimension of consonance and the crash of Flight 93 depicts the dimension of dissonance when the world and man are viewed as the works of God.
I define the United States using its national motto which proclaims, “In God We Trust.” For we trust in God, it is rational to claim that man is constituted as a Spiritual Being in God’s own image. I have a great problem in accounting for man’s evil thoughts and actions that cause pain and suffering. The wickedness of man got exposed on Tuesday, September 11, 2001. For God’s creation is perfect, there can never be two opposing or self-contradicting dimensions of human nature. Man’s spiritual nature reveals the consonance, the resonance of God’s nature in His work. How does the dissonance intrude into the world? How can man be estranged, separated, or alienated from his own true or original nature?
Philosophy of Medicine – Lesson. 64 – The Arrival of the Human Species
The arrival of the Human Species is a Creative Event and it cannot be accounted by the mechanistic principles shared by the Theory of Evolution.
In my view, the substance or material called the Living Matter has always existed with the same chemical composition resisting any influence of changing Time. The forms assumed by the Living Matter have always varied to demonstrate the operation of a creative mechanism that maintains the stability of each Species while generating variations among members of the same Species and between different Species. I would further seek to explain the arrival of the Human Species as a Creative Event as other member Species of the Genus Homo disappeared simultaneously without any specific contribution made by the Nature or the natural living conditions that prevail on planet Earth.
Philosophy of Medicine – Lesson. 63 – The Study of Human Foot refutes the idea of Man’s Descent From Apes
Humans walk and run effectively on the ground using two feet. Our arched foot, which is not a characteristic of other primates, is a unique feature crucial for human bipedalism. Comparative Anatomy is used by the evolutionary biologists as evidence to prove the origin of a new form of life from a previously existing form of life. However, the Human Species has a special form and the use of Comparative Anatomy may actually demolish the Theory of Evolution.
The Study of Human Foot refutes the idea of Man’s Descent From Apes.
Philosophy of Medicine – Lesson. 62 – Human Anatomy determines the place of Human Species in the Order of Nature
We have two choices about the position of man in nature. There is an aspect of human existence which is not governed by our choice. Man, when viewed as a physical being, the physical being is mortal and would eventually die and everything that is born comes with its own plan for its dissolution. If man is a created being, he would exist as a spiritual being, and spirituality describes the connection between man and his Creator. If an immortal principle is involved in the creation of man, the nature or essence of man would describe the nature of that immortal principle.
Ultimately, each individual living creature differs from every other in the same group with whom, at the same time, it shares certain characteristics of the race, the species, the genus, and all the larger classes to which they belong. This uniqueness is important to describe the intrinsic value of human life and the notion of Human Individuality and Individualism. Man has arrived as an Individual and essentially exists as an Individual as per the Law of Individuality, a biological characteristic of all living organisms and creatures.
