THE GULF CRISIS OVER QATAR – THE US MILITARY PRESENCE IN OMAN

The US Military Presence in Oman.

The US news media while discussing the Gulf Crisis over Qatar do not mention and do not recognize importance of US military presence in Oman. I served in Headquarters of Sultanate of Oman’s Land Forces ( HQ SOLF, renamed Royal Oman Army) in Force Medical Services(FMS) as Medical Officer providing service at various locations of Land Forces, Air Force, and Navy apart from serving civilians and other residents at all the locations where I served from 1984 to 86. I participated in Security and Intelligence Operations in Musandam Peninsula (HQ PENSEC) to defend vital US military interests as US naval vessels navigate through narrow channel of international waters at Strait of Hormuz. We conduct constant surveillance of that sensitive border to detect Iranian infiltration across narrow Gulf channel.

ASTEROID DAY – DOOMSDAY PROPHECY – BEIJING IS DOOMED

Asteroid Day June 30, 2015. Doomsday Prediction. Beijing Is Doomed.

Fate and Karma depend upon two different kinds of operating agencies or powers.

Karma is action performed by Individual and experience of its consequences. To that extent, Individual can modify Karma by performing actions without desire for fruits of his actions. Karma is not operated by an external agency or power while human existence is always conditioned by dependence on external source of energy. Karma is not inevitable for it involves Individual’s choice for action and behavior among a range of options available under external circumstances.

Fate is operated by an external agency or power and there is no escape from the consequences of Fateful events. In all human cultures, people have different attitudes when they submit themselves to power called Fate. Jews and Christians hope for Messiah or Savior. Hindus wait for Reincarnation of Lord Vishnu. Buddhists may wait for Rebirth of Maitreyi or Avalokitesvara. It gives people sense of Hope, and people acquire qualities like Patience and Perseverance. I ask readers to recognize the two dimensions of Fate, 1. Individualistic Fate, and 2. Group or Collective Fate that involves a very large population sharing certain common identity such as race, language, religion, nationality, or place of residence.

Many human cultures share a variety of Doomsday scenarios in different contexts. I am using information provided by Science to predict Doomsday Event predestined for people living in Shanghai City of China. Shanghai is world’s largest City or most populous City with an estimated population of over 24 million within City limits or boundaries. It is not about Fate of random Individuals but about Fate of entire population of modern, urban center of human population.

My interpretation of Science is unrelated to religious beliefs of Shanghai residents. Their Fate is not determined or operated by their faith or belief. While people have no choice or control over this Fateful Event, they may still avoid loss of life as the Event spares life of people who give attention to any announcement or forewarning.

I am totally dismayed by Sri. Aurobindo’s statement on Fate. However, he is entitled to his views as long as he makes distinction between his personal opinion and the traditions of Land. Karma is not Indian explanation of Fate. Apparently, Sri. Aurobindo fails to understand the concepts of Fate and Karma apart from not knowing as to what Indians generally think on such issues. India is often described as The Land of Karma.

Generally, Indians speak of three kinds of Karma, 1. Sanchita or Sabeeja Karma, the Karma Balance with which newborn arrives in life, 2. Agami Karma, the Karma Balance that is not yet experienced but likely to be experienced during the course of one’s lifetime ( both present and future), and 3. Prarabdha Karma, the Karma Balance that is being experienced in present condition of life at given time.

Fate describes Power or Agency ( in Indian Tradition, this Power or Agency may not be the same as GOD) which determines the outcome of events before they occur. Neither the individual, nor God may have the ability to influence or change or alter the ‘Outcome’ predetermined by Fate or Destiny and it speaks of inevitability of the outcome if it is destined to happen.

What is Existence?

Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes, Professor of Anatomy and Physiology, later, Dean, Harvard School of Medicine ( 1847- 53) states, “To live is to function and that is all there is in living.” I ask my readers to read Human Physiology and Human Anatomy to grasp the meaning of his words.

For all living things exist as Individuals with Individuality, the purpose of existence needs definition on individualistic basis. However, it must be noted that bodies do not comprise the ‘Whole of Existence’. For that reason, we have to ask, 1.What is it existing?, 2. Who is it existing?, 3. Where is it existing?, 4. When is it existing?, and 5. Why is it existing?

I describe reality of man in terms of ‘Matter’, an indispensable factor in the constitution of physical thing. Matter is associated with the idea of quantity, the basic magnitudes such as Mass, Space, and Time. That which is or has Matter in it necessarily occupies Space. While Time and Space are thought of as ‘immaterial’ dimensions, existence of material things is always influenced by Time and Space. For example, the era of Dinosaurs is entirely different from present time. Planet Earth is not the same as it existed in times before. In fact, Earth is never present at the same location in Space at any given two instants while man may experience changing Seasons in consistent manner.

It is not easy or practical to define individualistic purpose in life as life is always influenced by cosmic events such as ‘BOLIDE’ collision which in the past wiped out the entire, thriving population of Dinosaurs.

Spirituality Science-What is Predestination?

Spirituality Science-What is Predestination? MAN vs GOD – THE JOY OF GETTING ‘CHECKMATED’.

The man’s transient, mortal existence constantly faces dangers or challenges in unpredictable manner. The man is constantly driven to make choices and the man often acts as if he is in control of his life and external circumstances that tend to modify the course of his life. Human existence could be viewed as a game of chess. Depending upon the nature of the opponent, human existence faces challenges from several directions which may not be anticipated, and the human player may or may not be able to escape from the danger posed to his existence. 

I am asking readers to examine the concept of Fate, Destiny, Predestination, Vidhi, Daivam, and Niyati shared by people all over the world apart from Jews, Christians, Muslims, and Hindus. The Controller or the Agency that operates Fate or Destiny could be different from God. At least in Indian tradition, epic poems of Valmiki Ramayana refer to Vidhi, Daivam, and Niyati as Knower/Power foreordaining of all that will happen. Most Hindus worship Lord Rama and glorify Him as Absolute Reality or Ultimate Truth. And yet, Prince Rama’s Life Journey proceeds as if all His actions were Predestined or foreordained.

I prefer to share ideas from Bible as it is easy to quote the relevant scripture.

Spirituality Science-What is Predestination? IN HIS AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH ‘SURPRISED BY JOY, C.S. LEWIS DESCRIBED A GAME OF CHESS.
Spirituality Science-What is Predestination? Human Existence could be viewed as a Game of Chess. If I am the player, who would be my opponent?

Clive Staples Lewis (1898 – 1963), Oxford and Cambridge Scholar, novelist, writer of stories for children, and Literary Critic, in his Autobiographical Sketch titled ‘Surprised by Joy’ has visualized his existence as that of a ‘Divine Pursuit’. It is not man who searches and eventually finds God. It is rather God who pursues the man throughout his life’s moves. God is the one who searches for man and not vice versa. God goes about seeking the souls that are His. If man wanders off, God goes to man in order to reconcile him. God’s searching for man is serious and is not ostensible. If life could be described as Man vs God Chess Game; God skillfully places the man in a position which gives no option of escape and finally God captures man. C.S. Lewis has entitled the penultimate chapter of his Autobiography as “Checkmate”. Lewis describes God as the Divine Chess player who gradually maneuvers him into an impossible position. “All over the board my pieces were in the most disadvantageous positions. Soon I could no longer cherish even the illusion that the initiative lay with me. My Adversary began to make His final moves.” When God is the Divine Chess player, getting ‘Checkmated’ is only a moment of great Joy. The man who is defeated, the man who is pursued, and the man who is out maneuvered, is saved by the ‘Uplifting Power’ of Mercy, Grace, and Compassion of the Divine Chess player.     

Spirituality Science-What is Predestination? The move known as ‘Checkmate’–Its relevance to Human Existence

I describe the challenge of human existence to the game of playing Chess. The Agency or Power called Fate knows your mind, knows your response to any given situation in life. It alters, modifies, or even creates external circumstances of life in such a way that man is forced to act in conformity with Divine Will, and the notion of ‘Free Will’ is mere illusion.

I ask my readers to carefully verify the problems of existence, the challenges faced by millions of people in their daily lives. In medical practice, doctors routinely encounter problems of human pain and suffering that cannot be easily explained. No man exists in world depending exclusively upon his mental and physical work. Man needs ‘Redemption’ or ‘The Redeemer’ just to spend the few days of his mortal existence.

SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE – THE CONCEPT OF WHOLE CELL, WHOLE MAN AND WHOLE MEDICINE

SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE – THE CONCEPT OF WHOLE CELL, WHOLE MAN, AND WHOLE MEDICINE

The Concept of Whole Cell, Whole Man, and Whole Medicine.

The purpose of Medicine is that of promoting Man’s Well-Being. Man apart from his dimension of Physical Being has to be known from study of his dimensions of Mental Being, Social Being, Moral Being, Spiritual Being, and Created Being. The entire Human Organism is derived from Growth and Development of One, Single Fertilized Egg Cell and I describe this Cell as ‘Whole Cell’. For Life begins at Conception, the concern for promoting Man’s Well-Being or the Concept of Whole Medicine involves knowing the true or real nature of ‘Whole Cell’.

SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE – WHOLE MEDICINE

I define “Whole Medicine” as a systematic study of the Physical, Mental, Moral, Social, and Spiritual aspects of Man’s well-being in relation to health and disease.

I want to inform my readers that I am participating in this discussion to develop the concept of ‘Whole Man’ and ‘Whole Medicine’. To that extent, I am seeking use of verified knowledge that can have practical application in promoting the Well-Being of Man of any Race, any Gender, any Nationality, any Age, any Skin Color, or of any Language, or Religious affiliation.

Sri. Aurobindo Ghosh (1872-1950), Indian mystic philosopher, in his book titled ‘LETTERS ON YOGA’, page 576, writes, “The individual is only an entity in a much vaster totality just like you: You have lots of cells in your body; each cell has its own consciousness and you have a consciousness of your total individuality, though made up of all these small cellular consciousness.”

It is apparent from his writing that Man’s Individuality is made up of consciousness contributed by Independent, Living Cells of his entire organism for they constitute the Building Blocks of Human Body. For that reason, I have to use the concept of ‘Whole Cell’ to describe the concept of ‘Whole Man.’

Philosophy - Empiricism vs. Rationalism
The Concept of Whole Cell, Whole Man, and Whole Medicine.

I speak of Spirituality Science which holds that ‘Man is Real’. As per the theory or philosophical doctrine called ‘REALISM’, Individual Things exist independently of the mind’s perception of them. The term “REAL” describes the fact of existence independent of both human mind and the imaginative power of the Individual Object. I use the concept of ‘Whole Cell’ to describe myself in “REAL” terms.

SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE – “I AM REAL.” MY VIEW IS NOT IN AGREEMENT WITH SHANKARA’S DOCTRINE OF ADVAITA WHICH HOLDS THAT MATTER IS UNREAL.

On wholeangel.com

I am presenting a view of ‘Three Primary Orders’ that is not consistent with Shankara’s Non-Dualism or ‘ADVAITA’ doctrine. In his view, Soul and God are real and Matter is unreal, or product of Grand Illusion. His view demands separation of Man; 1.Body is unreal, and 2. Soul is real. His doctrine of Advaita lays its emphasis on Identity of Soul and God whereas I stress importance of UNITY between the two distinct entities called Man and God. Soul enters Man to establish Unity between Man and God for God remains Unmanifest in Physical World and Universe of Matter. If God, the Divine, Supreme Principle is present everywhere at the same time, the Divine is present in both Material and Immaterial Dimensions. I describe God as ‘Master Architect’ who uses Matter, Energy, Time, and Space in Creative manner to manifest His Creation.

Spirituality Science – Soul vs Body Dualism

SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE – SOUL vs BODY DUALISM. THE SINGULAR EFFECT CALLED MAN REPRESENTS UNITY BETWEEN SOUL, MIND, AND BODY FOR THEY DO NOT HAVE INDEPENDENT EXISTENCE OF THEIR OWN. 

The traditional Indian School of Thought called Samkhya Doctrine proclaims Soul-Body Dualism or the separation of Body and its Soul. In my view, this theory has no merit and has no validity. The Samkhya Theory of Soul has no practical application in real World. Science does not speak about Soul or Spirit. It does not mean that Science endorses Soul-Body Dualism. Science provides information that disproves separation of Man into Body, Mind, and Soul. The Indian School of Thought called Dvaita founded by Madhva explains the reasons for Soul-Matter Dualism. But, that separation or distinction is not applicable to Living Body or Living Thing in which Soul represents the Vital, Animating, Life Principle. The vital, animating principle called spirit or soul helps to distinguish the living matter from the Nonliving or inanimate matter. To the same extent, I reject Soul-Mind Dualism and Body-Mind Cartesian Dualism.

Spirit


Shankara, Ramanuja, and Madhva invested their time to discuss about Soul and God without verifying the basis for Human Existence in the Natural World. It appears that they did not attach much importance to Samkhya Doctrine and formulated their own Doctrines of Advaita, Visishtadvaita, and Dvaita. Samkhya appears in The Bhagavad Gita, Chapter II, but the Doctrine gets discredited in other Chapters.

SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE – SOUL vs BODY DUALISM. THE SINGULAR EFFECT CALLED MAN IS GENERATED BY UNITY BETWEEN VARIOUS PARTS OF BODY WHICH HAVE NO INDEPENDENT EXISTENCE OF THEIR OWN.

It may be correct to mention various parts of body and give names to different organs. But, the entire human organism is derived from Single, Fertilized Egg Cell. The anatomical organ called Brain is simply a part of Human Body and has no separate existence. At least, organs like Heart, Lungs, Kidneys, Liver, etc., can be transplanted into other Human Bodies. Brain cannot be separated from Body.

SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE – SOUL vs BODY DUALISM. I REJECT BOTH BODY vs MIND DUALISM AND SOUL vs BODY DUALISM. ALL THESE PARTS WORK TOGETHER AND ARE NOT INDEPENDENT OF EACH OTHER. On wholedude.com

I ask my readers to provide the reasoning used in support of whatever Doctrine they believe.

THREE PRIMARY ORDERS:

For purposes of discussion, I ask my readers to state their position in clear, concise terms. For example, we have three major Schools of Indian Thought founded by Shankara, Ramanuja, and Madhva and all three of them agree about Three Primary Orders; 1. God, 2. Soul, and 3. Matter. Shankara claims that Matter including Human Body is Unreal and God and Soul are the same or completely identical. Ramanuja admits the reality of Matter and states Soul and Matter are Body of God and have no independent existence of their own and hence modify God. Madhva makes five, fundamental distinctions and claims Soul and Soul are different, Soul and God are different, Souls and Matter are different, and Matter and Matter are different.

I have to ascertain my reader’s position and not reader’s interpretation of Gurbani, Bhagavad Gita, or Sri. Aurobindo, or Theosophy. It may be of interest to my readers to know my birthplace as Mylapore, Madras. I visited International Theosophical Society, Adyar, Madras while I grew up in Madras. The Founder, Colonel Henry Steel Olcott is known to folks of my native place called Rajahmundry. Ms. Annie Besant of Theosophical Society visited Rajahmundry and founded a place of worship called ‘Divya Gyan Samaj'( Assembly For Divine Wisdom). The residential subdivision where this place of worship is located is named in honor of Colonel Olcott as Olcott Gardens or Alcot Gardens.

Spirituality Science – Soul vs Body Dualism. Soul and Body work together to acquire Energy, to manipulate Energy, and to transform Energy to put it for use in performing Living Functions. On bhavanajagat.com

I support Sankara’s view in terms of Unity and not that of Identity. I support Ramanuja’s view of Matter and Soul modifying God, and to the same extent claim that Soul which resides in Human Body gets modified by Body and Mind to establish Unity between God, Soul, Mind, and Body. Matter, and Prakriti are still distinct from God, Soul, Mind, and Body. In fact, to formulate Living Matter and Living Things, God designed mechanisms for Energy Acquisition, Energy Exploitation, and Energy Transformation. All Living Things exploit Matter and Energy found in their external environment.

Spirituality Science – Soul vs Body Dualism. Soul as the Vital, Animating, Life Principle found in all Living Things works with Body to perform Living Functions. On bhavanajagat.com

I again ask my readers to state positions using terms like God, Soul, and Matter to account for their interactions in Daily Life.

MIND – BODY DUALISM

Spirituality Science – Soul vs Body Dualism and Mind vs Body Dualism. Mental Functions need constant support from Body for Mind has no independent existence of its own.

Firstly, there is no Mind that has independent existence of its own. Mind and Body are always united for both parts are derived from Single, Fertilized Egg Cell. Secondly, this discussion about Soul or Spirit, Life and Living makes Fundamental Distinction or Dualism called Living vs Nonliving, Animate vs Inanimate, and Sensible vs Insensible. If there is no distinction between Matter and Matter, there is no need to discuss about Soul or Spirit.

Spirituality Science – Soul vs Body Dualism. Chemical Molecules or Biomolecules of Life.

The distinction between Living Matter and Nonliving Matter is based upon prevalence of certain chemical molecules like Nucleic Acids which are only associated with Living and not found in Matter present in places outside Earth. Man uses these Chemical Compounds to find traces of Life in places like Moon or Mars.

If Soul or Spirit is unchanging, immortal, or everlasting, it remains the same now, in the past, and in future. So let us talk about Soul or Spirit in relationship with Matter that exists today and that can be verified today.

Spirituality Science – Soul vs Body Dualism. The Discovery of Viruses. The Molecular Basis of Spirituality.

The discovery of Viruses accounts for the basic difference between Living and Nonliving for Virus needs a Living Host to demonstrate its ability to perform Living Functions such as Replication.

WHAT IS LIFE? WHAT IS LIVING?

Spirituality Science – Soul vs Body Dualism. What is Life? What is Living?

I ask my readers to come to better understanding of Life and Living as Life exists on planet Earth without any human intervention. The use of terms and statements in respect of Life and Living have to be supported by verified information provided by Natural Sciences. For example, Life and Living precede invention of phrases like “Akshara Purush”, “Akal Purakh”, and “Karta Purakh.” All said and done, Gautama Buddha, Jesus, Prophet Mohammed, Guru Nanak lived their mortal lives on Earth during the most recent Geological Time called Holocene Epoch or the Present Time. While Theology and Philosophy offer varied understanding of Man, Science offers information that is of practical use to all human beings without taking into account their religion, race, culture, and language. I served people of different religious faiths and nationalities for there is an understanding of Man that is verified.

Soul or Spirit, when viewed as Unchanging or Immutable Life Principle, does not support Theory of Evolution. For that reason, I ask readers to reconsider using phrases like “Evolving” Soul or Spirit. Sri. Aurobindo makes a variety of statements without validating any of his claims.

Spirituality Science – Soul vs Body Dualism. What is Life? What is Living? Living is experienced only on planet Earth.

When we discuss terms like ‘Transcendent’ during our conversation about Life and Living, it  important to identify the Domain or Realm. All living things have well-defined domains in Nature called Natural Habitats. Earth is Life’s Natural Domain and all Phenomena are experienced on Earth. For example, Man can experience Natural Phenomenon of Rainbow only on planet Earth and nowhere else. For that reason, we have to make distinction between Natural Domain/Realm and Supernatural Realm/Domain. Moon, all other planets, Sun, Stars, and Galaxies belong to Supernatural Domain/Realm. The events experienced on Sun cannot be experienced on Earth. Sunrise and Sunset experienced on Earth cannot be experienced on other planets for all of them have different rotational and spin characteristics.

Firstly, I am asking my readers to join this discussion after acquiring basic understanding of Natural Sciences such as Physics, Chemistry, Botany, Zoology, Cell and Molecular Biology, Biochemistry, Geology, Psychology, Human Anatomy, and Human Physiology as the information provided is very relevant to our discussion.

I ask my readers to give attention to understanding Life on Earth, in the Material, Terrestrial Realm or Domain. Without understanding the Physical Basis for Existence, it will be futile to give attention to complex ideas such as Mental Plane, Astral Plane, etc.,

SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE – CELLULAR BASIS OF SPIRITUAL FUNCTIONS

Spontaneous Generation Theory, Life arising from Non-Living Matter is proven to be wrong. Matter does not evolve into Living Matter. There is no “Evolution.” It is not happening today. For Life is Created, it can still be proven as Creative Phenomenon. For example, every Living Cell exists as Individual with Individuality and there are never two identical cells. This is proven by experimental verification.

SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE – CELLULAR BASIS OF SPIRITUAL FUNCTIONS.

Indian Tradition always claimed that Soul, Spirit, the Life Principle is never affected, is never influenced by Nature, Physical Environment, or PRAKRITI. It is unchanging while Living Things exhibit varied responses to external, environmental stimuli. Indian Tradition claims that Man performing actions under Three Different Modes of Nature is distinct from True or Real Man who is endowed with Spiritual Nature. For that reason, even evil, wicked, cruel, and ignorant persons are still deemed to be of Divine Nature as Actions and Behavior cannot affect Spiritual Nature that transforms “I” into “I Am.”

Self-Deception to Self-Realisation
(An Insightful Exploration)

Even if a realistic consideration is given, which is quite free and
bereft of all shades of supernatural assumptions, LIFE appears to be as
follows:

All creatures, from the most primitive to the highly evolved, struggle
to exist. The one single pursuit of all creatures is to struggle for life
preservation. Struggle to stay alive is the principal occupation. Preserve!
And procreate! This is the natural order within which all creatures exist.
But in this universe of struggle, human struggle stands out very
distinctly! Distinct because, the humankind struggles not only to just
physically preserve and procreate, we also struggle to preserve and protect
our notion of “Self” identity (ego). Unlike the struggles of all other
creatures, this sort of human struggle (egoistic) precipitates sorrow and
anguish. Hence, it may not be totally wrong to mention that rest of the
creatures except humankind struggle without sorrow! Humankind has
deceptively identified its inherent ‘Self-conscious’ mode of perception and
reaction as a stepping-stone to gain pleasure and comfort in the “herein”
life and an immortal eternity in the “hereafter” life! But, this ‘Self-conscious
stepping-stone’ has after all turned out to be a ‘tripping-stone’, on which the
humanity is stumbling and tottering for eternity! Religious mythologies and
recorded history from all regions of the human-world, hold testimony to this
“Self” created appalling plight.

In fact, the principal struggle for humankind is centred and oriented
to preserve their notion of “Self” identity. The crisis in the human
consciousness is the crisis of identity. Self-assertion, Self-esteem, Self Pride,
Self-honour are the many faces of our egocentric “Self”-identity. For
a matured discerning perception, it is quite evident that the many dire
dangers which are challenging the human physical preservation are
unwittingly created by this very “Self” preservation! This incredible
deception, human consciousness is not at all aware of. Though each human
being may be oblivious of this fact, the human history beginning from the
very hoary anthropological evidences are fully validating this “Self”
generated horror. “Self” has unleashed time-and-again mass murders and
material destructions, which perhaps even nature’s fury can not match!

For all creatures, ending the struggle for physical preservation would
mean death. Hence, all creatures including humankind have to continue the
efforts to stay alive, until our appointed moments of death. Where as for
humankind, its struggle for “Self” (ego) preservation is not only
unnecessary but it is even quite harmful. Humankind’s struggles for “Self”
preservation must come to an end.

This quixotic struggle is, by the deception called “Self”, produced of
the“ Self” and repeated endlessly for the “Self”. This enigmatic struggle
has ‘Mothered’ layers of endless unnatural complex fears(phobia) and
desires(mania). The principal one of this edifice is, fear of “Self annihilation
and desire for “Self” continuity. Unnatural fears and desires accumulated for
aeons in humankind have different names. Aham, Self, I, Psyche, Atman,
ME, Ego etc.

Only in ending of this struggle completely, humankind can restore
order and peace in their midst. We all should deeply realise the utter futility
of our struggle for “Self” (ego) preservation. Unlike other creatures,
humankind with the help of its highly endowed brain power is able to
provide fairly easily for its physical preservation. For each one to have
food, clothing and shelter at its essential level does not demand any
excruciating struggle. Insensitivity to this legitimate need of others,
happens in our midst only due to our illegitimate “Self-centred” attitudes
and blind actions. In spite of the utter redundancy of “Self”- centred
struggle, humankind struggles endlessly in its lifetime. Beyond the natural
limits of ‘Creature-Comfort’, human civilisation has spun many irrelevant
hallucinations of value based goals and is eternally caught in its own net of
deceptions. Such a gigantic struggle of humankind is the outcome of
unquenchable ambitions and greeds. Each of our greedy “Self”(ego) is
unendingly ambitious to fulfil (fill-full) its “Self”-esteem. This is an
unending pursuit of self-aggrandizement. Humankind is unable to realise
that such a fulfilment does not really ‘exist’ in the scheme of creation. Why
because, the “Self” itself is the projected outcome of deception. A
deception can never be satisfied. Hence, the only solution for our Self Deception
IS Self-realisation. We have to deeply realise right in the midst of
our daily living that our “Self” is a falsehood. Our egoistic identity is but a
deception. All values and mental drives which have surfaced in our midst
based on images of Self-esteem and Self-pride have to be purged. There is
just no scope in the scheme of creation for “Self”- continuity. All shades of
“Self” (egoistic) defences have to be renounced.

Efforts which are totally free from the dark shadows of fuming and
fretting, sorrow and anguish can hardly befit to be called as struggle! Hence
for us to stay alive, it only calls for intelligent minimal efforts. To struggle,
is the sure sign of deep ignorance. The mind numbing struggle is not only
unnecessary but it is even harmful for our very existence!
Only this clear insight will allow the wholesome trust to well-up in
the human consciousness, which is presently poisoned by the notion of
“Self” (ego). Trust in the grand order of togetherness. Non-dual
togetherness, in which all other creatures seem to naturally participate, but
the same is resisted and rejected by the ego of humankind. Only in
togetherness, which is totally free of ego’s alienation ORDER IS. Alienation
is disorder. Obsessively believing in an imaginary individuality and its
separate destiny is implied by alienation. This notion gives rise to an
unnatural phobia of “Self” preservation. This is certainly a deception. This
is a morbid disorder at the very foundation of human perception. Until
this tricky (as well sticky) anomaly is nullified, no human problem can be
fully solved. This is why, each solution worked out to solve the existing
problems, in turn become problems themselves! For peace to be, human
living should happen free of such a “Self” concern and “Self”
consciousness.

All living creatures should yield (flow) free of struggle and resistance
to the grand-order of Creation. In all other creatures this implicit obedience
to the grand-order of togetherness (i.e. Unnaturally not fearing and vainly
trying psychically to resist the cycle of birth, growth, decay and death)
seems to be happening rather unconsciously. Where as, the nature seems
to have intended that humankind has to accept the flux of one’s own
existence along with the flux of other aspects of creation “fully
consciously”. “Arise and Awake” really has such a revolutionary
connotation.

Self-realisation is to mutate radically out of Self-deception.

SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE – CELLULAR BASIS OF SPIRITUAL FUNCTIONS. WILL DURANT AND ARIEL DURANT. HIS LETTER IS REPRODUCED TO INVITE COMMENTS FROM MY READERS.

Will Durant (November 5, 1885 – November 7, 1981) was an American writer, historian and philosopher. He is best known for The Story of Civilization, 11 volumes written in collaboration with his wife, Ariel Durant, and published between 1935 and 1975. He was earlier noted for The Story of Philosophy (1926), described as “a groundbreaking work that helped to popularize philosophy”.

The Durants were awarded the Pulitzer Prize for General Non-Fiction in 1968 and the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 1977.
 
Ariel Durant died on October 25, 1981. Will Durant died in less than two weeks on November 7,1981.They were married for over Seventy years.
 
 
 Do read this classic letter from Durant to his contemporaries
 
 
Durant’s Letter To Famous Contemporaries:
 
“Dear ________:
 
Will you interrupt your work for a moment and play the game of philosophy with me?
 
“I am attempting to face a question which our generation, perhaps more than any, seems always ready to ask and never able to answer — What is the meaning or worth of human life? Heretofore this question has been dealt with chiefly by theorists, from Ikhnaton and Lao-tse to Bergson and Spengler. The result has been a kind of intellectual suicide: thought, by its very development, seems to have destroyed the value and significance of life. The growth and spread of knowledge, for which so many idealists and reformers prayed, has resulted in a disillusionment which has almost broken the spirit of our race.
 
“Astronomers have told us that human affairs constitute but a moment in the trajectory of a star; geologists have told us that civilization is but a precarious interlude between ice ages; biologists have told us that all life is war, a struggle for existence among individuals, groups, nations, alliances, and species; historians have told us that ‘progress’ is a delusion, whose glory ends in inevitable decay; psychologists have told us that the will and the self are the helpless instruments of heredity and environment, and that the once incorruptible soul is but a transient incandescence of the brain. The Industrial Revolution has destroyed the home, and the discovery of contraceptives is destroying the family, the old morality, and perhaps (through the sterility of the intelligent) the race. Love is analyzed into a physical congestion, and marriage becomes a temporary physiological convenience slightly superior to promiscuity. Democracy has degenerated into such corruption as only Milo’s Rome knew; and our youthful dreams of a socialist Utopia disappear as we see, day after day, the inexhaustible acquisitiveness of men. Every invention strengthens the strong and weakens the weak; every new mechanism displaces men, and multiplies the horror of war. God, who was once the consolation of our brief life, and our refuge in bereavement and suffering, has apparently vanished from the scene; no telescope, no microscope discovers him. Life has become, in that total perspective which is philosophy, a fitful pullulation of human insects on the earth, a planetary eczema that may soon be cured; nothing is certain in it except defeat and death — a sleep from which, it seems, there is no awakening.
 
“We are driven to conclude that the greatest mistake in human history was the discovery of ‘truth.’ It has not made us free, except from delusions that comforted us and restraints that preserved us. It has not made us happy, for truth is not beautiful, and did not deserve to be so passionately chased. As we look on it now we wonder why we hurried so to find it. For it has taken from us every reason for existence except the moment’s pleasure and tomorrow’s trivial hope.
 
“This is the pass to which science and philosophy have brought us. I, who have loved philosophy for many years, now turn back to life itself, and ask you, as one who has lived as well as thought, to help me understand. Perhaps the verdict of those who have lived is different from that of those who have merely thought. Spare me a moment to tell me what meaning life has for you, what keeps you going, what help — if any — religion gives you, what are the sources of your inspiration and your energy, what is the goal or motive-force of your toil, where you find your consolations and your happiness, where, in the last resort, your treasure lies. Write briefly if you must; write at length and at leisure if you possibly can; for every word from you will be precious to me.
 
Sincerely yours,
 
Will Durant

SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE – MAN IS SPIRITUAL BEING

SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE – MAN IS SPIRITUAL BEING

SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE – MAN IS SPIRITUAL BEING.

God is known through Peace, Harmony, and Tranquility of Living Human Experience.

So to seek first God’s kingdom means to make it a priority every day ...
Spirituality Science – Man is Spiritual Being.

Spirituality Science – Man is Spiritual Being.

God is known for He is the Author of Peace; Peace, which man experiences, not through reading but through Living.

Spirituality Science – Man is a Spiritual Being.

 

“Peace be with You” expresses God – Man Connection, not in abstract terms but as verifiable, Subjective, and Objective Living Experience.

Spirituality Science – Man is Spiritual Being.

Spirituality Science describes Spirituality as God – Man Connection, Relationship, Partnership, Bonding, Yoking, Coming Together, Joining, Association, and Unity to formulate Peace, Harmony, Tranquility characteristic of Spiritual Living Experience. Man’s Spiritual Nature is not determined by observing Man’s Good or Evil actions and behavior. I explain and account for Man’s Spiritual Nature by study of Man’s Living Functions that reflect Peace, Harmony, and Tranquility in interactions between trillions of Individual, Independent, and Autonomous Living Cells that constitute Man as a Living Thing.

1. It is impossible to describe the concept called Soul or Spirit if it is never associated with its Human Body.

2. Soul or Spirit when defined as the vital and animating principle found in all living things, Spirituality Science seeks verification of its existence for Soul or Spirit is Living.
3. In a constantly spinning and moving World and Universe called “JAGAT”, Soul or Spirit called “BHAVA” and its Spiritual Nature called “BHAVANA” provide the Unchanging Operating System not influenced by Time and Space to establish reality of Human Existence.
4. In the context of Man, Soul or Spirit represents the internal potency of Subject called “I” who performs Living Functions to derive Identification termed “I AM.”
5. Soul or Spirit is of interest because of its association with a Living Person. For that reason, Man must understand as to what it is to be a Substance and what it is to Exist.
6. Spirituality Science as a Science involves pursuit of theoretical knowledge of Living Soul or Spirit to find its practical application to promote Man’s Well-Being.
7. Soul or Spirit is involved in bringing together the constantly changing Identity and unchanging Individuality of Individual who exists in Natural World of Change and Experience.
8. To investigate Soul or Spirit as the guiding or regulatory mechanism to perform Living Functions needs recognition of purposeful, sequential, guided, goal-oriented, predictable, (and not random) nature of Life’s Living Functions.
9. Soul or Spirit can be stated as the Operating Principle of Living System, an Open System that is thermodynamically unstable demanding constant input of energy from its external source.
10. The Living System knows the fact of its own existence; it knows as to where it exists, and knows as to how it exists. This Awareness or Knowing is operated by Spiritual Mechanism that formulates relationship between the energy-dependent Living System and its energy-yielding Provider.
11. The term ‘Spiritual’ is to be used in the context of describing the nature of relationship, partnership, connection, bonding, or association between Living Systems and within the complex Living System.
12. Living System is complex with various independent, autonomous, interacting Units or Parts. Soul or Spirit has to be examined as the mechanism establishing Structural Unity to provide Functional Harmony.
13. Soul or Spirit is to be evaluated for its role in formulating an internal, mutually beneficial partnership between trillions of Independent, Individual, Autonomous Living Cells constituting Tissues, Organs, and Organ Systems of Human Body to provide basis for existence of Human Individual.

Spirituality Science – Man is Spiritual Being.

14. For investigation of Soul or Spirit to establish its role as Life Principle, the study involves interpretation of Biotic Interactions, both Interspecific and Intraspecific kinds of Interactions.

Spirituality Science – Man is Spiritual Being. On bhavanajagat.com

15. Spiritual Interactions have characteristics such as compassion, sympathy, altruism, cooperation, mutual assistance, mutual tolerance, voluntary subservience, and functional subordination to provide some benefit to members participating in Biotic Interactions. For example, study of the role of Red Blood Cells will help us to know as to how Circulation and Respiration work together to provide benefit to the entire Human Body.
16. Man, the Spiritual Being is known from the nature of his existence characterized by Living Experience of Peace, Harmony, and Tranquility within himself and within his Community and Environment that shapes his existence.
17. Man is Spiritual Being for Man has Corporeal Substance that is of Spiritual Nature. While there are diverse Living Forms, all of them share this Living Attribute called Living Matter or Protoplasm.

I inquire about existence of Soul or Spirit in a Material Substance that is basic to all Life activities, that is responsible for all Living Processes and is common to all Living Forms. The term Soul or Spirit have Material Basis for the reality of Man is established in Material World.

Subject: Re: What is Spirit and Soul? From: Devinder Singh Gulati

It has been affirmed by Sri Aurobindo that,
in fact, life, mind and supermind are present in
the atom, are at work there, but invisible, occult
and latent in a subconscious or apparent
unconscious action of energy. The electron and
the atom are in this view eternal
somnambulist. In the plant the outer form
consciousness is still in a state of sleep, always
on the point of waking, but never waking.
Animal being is mentally aware of existence,
its own and others, it has even a practical
intelligence, founded on memory, association,
stimulating need, observation, a power of device.
The animal prepares human intelligence. But
when we come to man, we see the whole thing
becoming conscious. Man not only turns his
gaze downward and around him, but also
upward towards what is about him and inward
towards what is occult within him. To climb to
higher altitudes, to get a greater scope, to
transform his lower nature, this is always a
natural impulse of man as soon as he has made
his place for himself in the physical and vital

world of the earth and has a little leisure to
consider his further possibilities. He is capable,
unlike other terrestrial creatures, of becoming
aware of what is deeper than mind, of the soul
within him, and of what is above the mind, of
supermind, of spirit, capable of opening to it,
admitting it, rising towards it, taking hold of it.
It is in his human nature, in all human nature,
to exceed itself by conscious evolution, to climb
beyond what he is. And where is the limit of
effectuation in the evolutionary being’s self-
becoming by self-exceeding?

SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE – MAN IS CREATED BEING

SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE – MAN IS CREATED BEING

And we created you in pairs – Quranic Verse – 78:8

and we created you in pairs holy quran 78 8

Man is Created Being. Man may be divided into several parts, but those parts establish One, Singular Unity. While the Creation is divided into Material and Spiritual, Inanimate and Animate, Insensible and Sensible, Living and Nonliving its Origin or the Prime Cause remains the same.

I seek the existence of Soul or Spirit in a Substance that is basic to Life activities, and in a Material or Matter that is responsible for all Living Processes.

The term Soul or Spirit belong to Earthly or Terrestrial, or Materialistic Realm or Domain where the Physical, Subjective, and Objective Reality of Man’s Existence is established. I do not intend to use the term Soul or Spirit as Metaphysical or Transcendent Reality.

I define Spirituality Science as investigation of Spiritual Nature of Corporeal or Material Substance called Living Matter or Protoplasm/Cytoplasm. I am not seeking to discover Soul or Spirit that may exist independent of Man’s Physical or Created Being. This Inquiry pertains to the relationship between Soul or Spirit and Human Body whose Structure and Functions are accounted by Science such as Human Anatomy and Human Physiology.

room233 ivy p notes on biomolecules the molecules of life

The Structure and Behavior of Living Things contribute to their Individual Being and Function. Living Things have Complex Structures and Functional Organization. Living Functions cannot be discovered if there is breakdown or damage of these Complex Molecules. We cannot discover the taste of Water if Water Molecule is separated into its Chemical Elements. We cannot discover the taste of Salt if Salt Molecule is separated into its Chemical Elements. Living Functions called Metabolism involves making, breaking, and repairing of Molecules of Life.

SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE – THE CONCEPT OF DETACHED DEVOTION

SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE – THE CONCEPT OF DETACHED DEVOTION:

Spirituality Science. The Concept of Detached Devotion.

I carefully examined Indian Schools of Thought and in general they recommend preparing seeker’s mind as the first step to commence study of Self or Adhyatma Vidya. The preparation recommended is that of severing attachments. In my analysis, breaking of attachments involves removal of all desires which includes the desire for Moksha, Mukti, Vimochan, Liberation, Salvation, Eternal Life, Everlasting Life, or Afterlife. The desire for Transcendence or reward of Life in Heaven/Paradise, the desire to avoid punishment of Life in Hell have to be discarded. To some extent, the concept of Nirvana demands not to desire even Higher or Perfect Knowledge.

Spirituality Science. The Concept of Detached Devotion.


On bhavanajagat.com

It is apparent to most investigators to find God is in Creation and yet God is Detached. If God is Detached, it is impossible for me to get or seek attachment to God. While God is detached, there is still Yoking, Joining, Coming Together, or Partnership, Association, and Bonding between Creation and Creator. I show Devotion for I lead conditioned or dependent Earthly Existence. I am not seeking my emancipation from my Dependence for it is operated by the Principle of Unity called “ASMI”, the Everlasting Principle in Sanskrit Language. For I recognize my Unity, I have no other Desires and I have no Desire for some kind of mental attachment to God. The Concept of Personal God of Ramanuja, or of Surrender to God, or Saranagati of Madhva do not call for Attachment to God. In my view, devotional service to God is absence of all Attachments.

... and Islam is a religion of mercy, forgiveness, respect, love and unity
Spirituality Science. The Concept of Detached Devotion.

I accept the above concept of “ISLAM” for it does not demand Attachment to God to receive Higher Reward of Life in Paradise and does not impose threat or Fear of Life in Hell.

REGULATIVE AND CONSTITUTIVE PRINCIPLES OF PURE REASON:

Kant – Critique of Pure Reason
Spirituality Science. The Concept of Detached Devotion.

Regulative Concepts & Principles, Constitutive Concepts & Principles are central to Kant’s philosophy. In the Critique of Pure Reason, this distinction marks the division between the Faculty of Reason and the Faculty of Understanding.

The Understanding is constitutive of the possibility of Experience. All Experience must conform to the Concepts & Principles of the Understanding, which are realized or instantiated in Experience; Experience contains Substances, Causal Connections and so on.

The Faculty of Reason, by contrast, is merely Regulative in relation to Experience. Although Reason too plays an indispensable role in Experience, the Concepts proper to it – the so-called ideas of Reason, such as the idea of God, or the idea of the World as a complete Totality cannot be realized or instantiated in Experience at all. Nevertheless, ideas of Reason still function legitimately to guide empirical inquiry into the objects that can be given in Experience.

We declare, for example, that the Things in the World must be so considered as if they had their existence from a Highest Intelligence. It indicates not how an Object is Constituted but rather, how we, under its guidance, are to seek the Constitution and Connection of the Objects of Experience in general. Thus, Regulative Concept & Principle helps in complete Understanding of the Constitution and Connection of the Objects of Experience.

In its regulative use, Reason guides our work in striving for Knowledge, helping us to correct errors and arrive at more comprehensive insights.

Regulative Principles govern the Existence of Appearance. Such Principles may not be proven since Existence cannot be constituted. For example, man has no ability to constitute Living Matter called Protoplasm while man has general understanding of its constituents. Man may not be able to prove and verify all the Regulative Principles of Human Existence for he cannot constitute Living Matter.

Kant discusses the Regulative Principles of Reason, which determine the limits of Reason.

The Principles that objectively state what is present in the Object itself, that is, what is the Constitution of Appearance. These Principles of Pure Understanding describe standard and necessary Constituents of the World of Appearance. Regulative Principles play no part in determining the Objective Character of the World of Appearance. They are maxims, neither provable nor disprovable and are not to be understood as true or false. They serve to guide our inquiry within Experience and lead us to transgress the limits of Reason from the Conditioned to the Unconditioned. For example, I mentioned several times in the past as to how Human Existence is possible only under the influence of Illusion and not that of Reality of Earth’s Speed.

WHAT IS “PANCHA PRANA?”

In Indian Tradition, Pancha Prana (Breath of Life or VAYU) is described as Vyana, Samana, Udana, Apana and Prana. The term or phrase ‘PRANA’ refers to air that is in the heart, and the word is generally used to describe the act of breathing or respiration, as a sign or mark of Life. In reality, this air or breath, or VAYU exists in molecules of Hemoglobin contained in Red Blood Cells.

Spirituality Science. The Concept of Detached Devotion.


No religious doctrine mentions about Cellular Respiration. But, understanding of Existence and Life will be impossible without examining the Connection between Air, Breath, Vayu, Respiration and Food that sustains Life by providing Matter and Energy drawn from an external source. In Medical Science, understanding of man involves study of Human Anatomy (Structure and Constitution of Cells, Tissues, Organs, and Organ Systems of Human Body), and Human Physiology (Regulation of Functions of various Cells, Tissues, Organs, and Organ Systems of Human Body).
