LOVE DEFINED AS FUNDAMENTAL FORCE

LOVE DEFINED AS FUNDAMENTAL FORCE

LOVE DEFINED AS FUNDAMENTAL FORCE. PHYSICS MAY NOT ACCOUNT FOR INTERACTIONS BETWEEN LIVING AND NONLIVING MATTER. PHYSICAL FORCES CANNOT ACCOUNT FOR OBSERVED VARIATIONS IN ROTATIONAL SPINS OF PLANETS. On wholedude.com

In Physics, the term ‘Fundamental’ is used to describe a Principle, Theory, Law etc., serving as a basis forming a foundation that could be essential to explain other interactions in the natural world. In Physics, the term ‘Force’ is used to describe the cause or agent that puts an object at rest into motion or alters motion of a moving object.

Love defined as Fundamental Force. Physics accounts for Four Fundamental Interactions. In Natural World, there are Interactions between Living and nonliving Matter which are fundamentally different from Interactions explained by Physics.

All known physical interactions of Matter occur through the agency of four basic, or ‘Fundamental’ kinds of ‘Forces’; 1. Strong Nuclear Force, 2. Weak Nuclear Force, 3. Electromagnetic Force, and 4. Gravitation Force. Most natural phenomena can be accounted for in terms of Four Fundamental Interactions. Gravitation and Electromagnetism act over long distances and it is easy to observe their effects. Strong and Weak Nuclear Forces act over subatomic distances and the range of their effects is limited.

**LOVE DEFINED AS FUNDAMENTAL FORCE; A FORCE THAT IS NOT MEASURED BY INSTRUMENTS INVENTED BY PHYSICISTS.**

Gravitation is the pervasive Fundamental Interaction. Every particle of Matter seems to attract every other particle with a Force that is proportional to the Mass of each and inversely proportional to the square of their separation. This relationship was first proposed by Sir Issac Newton. His Theory of Gravitation is ‘Fundamental’, in the sense that all Motion due to the gravitational forces exerted on all objects can be described as a result of the same Force. Gravitation causes apples to fall from trees and determines the orbits of planets around the Sun.

**LOVE DEFINED AS FUNDAMENTAL FORCE. FUNDAMENTAL PHYSICAL FORCES CANNOT ACCOUNT FOR VARYING ROTATIONAL SPINS OF ASTRONOMICAL BODIES.**

Mechanics is the branch of Physics that deals with motion of material bodies and the phenomena of action of forces on bodies. Celestial Mechanics is study of motion of astronomical bodies as they move under the influence of their mutual gravitation. If the forces acting on a System do not cancel, Motion will result. Calculation of such motions is complicated because many separate forces are acting at once and all bodies are moving simultaneously. Issac Newton’s Laws of Motion and Theory of Universal Gravitation provide a great understanding of the simple elliptical orbits as described by Kepler’s Laws of Planetary Motions.

**LOVE DEFINED AS FUNDAMENTAL FORCE. KEPLER’S LAWS MAY ACCOUNT FOR ORBITAL MOTIONS OF PLANETS. HOW ABOUT EXPLAINING ROTATIONAL SPINS OF PLANETS???**

It is interesting to note Hindu Scriptures Vedas may describe or mention Earth’s rotational spin. However, I notice that neither Vedas, nor Science have accounted for ‘Force’ that initiated rotational spin of various celestial bodies. Rotational Spin is a different kind of motion and cannot be explained as caused by physical forces of mutual attraction between celestial objects. Newton maintained that mere Motion does not require application of Force. In Space, there is no friction to restrain motions of celestial bodies.

LOVE DEFINED AS FUNDAMENTAL FORCE. PHYSICAL FORCE SUCH AS GRAVITATION ACCOUNTS FOR EARTH’S ORBIT OR REVOLUTION AROUND THE SUN. THERE IS NO PHYSICAL FORCE TO ACCOUNT FOR EARTH’S ROTATION ON ITS AXIS.

Man’s physical existence on surface of Earth cannot be fully accounted by physical force of Gravitation that explains Earth’s orbit or revolution around the Sun. Man travels about 67, 000 miles per hour during Earth’s yearly orbit around the Sun. But, man’s lifetime or lifespan on Earth is determined by alternating periods of Day and Night caused by Earth’s rotational spin. Physical Forces act mechanically without sense of purpose or goal. Earth’s rotational spin serves a specific purpose for it directs Biological Rhythms of Living Systems.

Love defined as Fundamental Force. Physical Force may account for the Speed of a point on the surface of Earth. Living Systems have synchronized their Biological Rhythms with Rotational Spin of Earth which serves specific purpose such as causing alternate periods of Light and Darkness.

Love defined as Fundamental Force. Man travels nearly 67,000 miles per hour in yearly orbit around the Sun. But, man’s lifetime or lifespan is determined by alternating periods of Day and Night caused by Earth’s rotational spin.

Within our Solar System, no celestial object shares rotational spin characteristics of another object. Each planet spins at a different speed or exhibits different rotational axis. On each planet, we will experience Day and Night and Seasons in different manners as they orbit around Sun. Each planet is unique, distinctive, original, and one of its own kind of celestial object. Space Exploration discovered thousands of planets, but none of them share identical rotational spins, in fact each planet displays individualistic variation in its spin characteristics. So, we need to recognize existence of “UNKNOWN” Force that may have imparted energy to initiate rotational spin of each celestial object.

**LOVE DEFINED AS FUNDAMENTAL FORCE. TILT AND ROTATION AXIS OF THE PLANETS SHOW INDIVIDUALISTIC VARIATIONS. FOR LIFE ON EARTH, ITS TILT AND ROTATION AXIS ARE PURPOSIVE AND GOAL-ORIENTED.**

I am using the term ‘LOVE’ to define it as Fundamental Force that brings Unity and Harmony in Interactions between Inanimate and Animate Matter to establish Natural Order. LOVE is Fundamental to existence of Sensible or Living Matter and Living Things have ability to perceive LOVE which instruments developed by man cannot measure.

Dear Seekers of Vedic Knowledge,

What our ancient heritage scriptures Vedas say about physical sciences, role of scientists (ashvinaus) and scientific temper, a brief note is given below.
To get a feel of Vedic physical sciences, reference to a few hymns are given.
The Sun never sets or rises and it is the earth, which rotates (Sama-Ved 121). The gravitational effect of solar system makes the earth stable (R.V.1-103-2, 1-115-4 and 5-81-2). The axle of the earth does not get rusted and the earth continues to revolve on its axle (R.V. 1-164-29). The science of Time and its subtle nature is described in (R.V.1-92-12 and 1-95-8). The need to study the properties of water, air and fire for discovering and manufacturing aircrafts, ships and other vehicles capable of moving in the firmament, land and water are mentioned in Rig Veda 1-3-1,2, 1-34-1, 1-140-1 and many other hymns. Reference to infinite number of both gross and subtle atoms and the energy principle as spirit of God in each atom is given in R.V. 5-47-2 and Sama Veda 222. Atoms and sub atomic particles are not inert and have unsuspected vitality owing to this energy principle. Physical sciences relating to agriculture, medicine, astronomy mathematics particularly algebra, toxicology etc. are described in R.V.1-71-9, 4-57-5, Sama Veda 121 and many other hymns.
In the Vedas scientists are described as men and women of absolute self-control, truthful with scientific outlook and destroyers of miseries (R.V., 1-3-4). With the help of these scientists one could travel far on the earth and in the sky through conveyances, which run and touch the middle region (R.V. 1-3-1, 6-22-2 and 1-22-2). Such scientists from both the sexes go across to distance places quickly like the mind and electricity (R.V. 1-71-9). In this hymn aircrafts and even space ships are hinted. These ashvinaus should be well versed in Physics, agricultural sciences (R.V. 4-57-5), medical sciences (R.V. 5-74-3), astronomy (S.V. 121) and other sciences. Ashvinaus have been advised to learn thoroughly about Prakrti (divine Nature), characteristics and various qualities of water, air, fire, electricity and heat and sound energy. Other sciences mentioned are Toxicology and use of various kinds of medicines and drugs (R.V 1-191-14), science of Time (Kala vidya) that starts with dawn (Ushas). R.V. 1-95-2, and 10, refers to use of time for mathematics. There is a mention of infra-red rays, study of Algebra (Rekha di ganit vidya), sound as a medium of knowledge for various sciences, diseases like bile, cough, jaundice and others and their treatment etc. The relevant hymns in this regard are in Rig-Veda 1-185-2, 1-12-1, 2, 1-22-1 to 4, 1-2-3, 1-95-1, 1-101-1 and many others.

However, the greater emphasis is on the development of Scientific Temper amongst the members of Society with a view to curb spread of blind faith, hypocrisy, miracle and ostentatious worship of God. Thus the knowledge of Vedic sciences is meant to save the human beings from falling into an utter darkness as Isa Upanishad and the last chapter of Yajur Veda caution us. The unity in diversity is the message of Vedic physical and metaphysical sciences. While matter is the cause of diversity owing to three primordial subtle particles of purity, activity and passivity present in it, the spirit (jiva) provides the necessary unity.
To encourage scientific temper Vedas advise, “O, Man Explore further.” Kindly see for more details on Vedic Science about Earth, Sun, Gravitation, Moon, Eclipse, telegraphy, ships, aircrafts and many other
The Vedas combine science with metaphysics and clearly mention that it is God who is the giver of knowledge of all sciences as “Sahstra sam ” (R.V. 1-10-11). The scientists are advised to study cause and effect of all material elements and how the objects are produced and there after utilize these properly (R.V. 5-47-3). By following these guidelines they can alleviate much suffering of the people (R.V. 5-77-4). Without the knowledge and practical application of physical sciences, it is not possible to eradicate poverty and attain prosperity (R.V. 1-34-1 to 5).

For more details on Vedic science and many other divine, spiritual and material Vedic subjects kindly see “Glimpses of Vedic Metaphysics” available on Internet for on line reading and even taking print at no cost. The website is.

Kindly render divine social service and forward to other seekers of Vedic knowledge.

With kind regards,

Prem Sabhlok
P.S
Vedas say in regard to scientific temper “O: Man Explore further”
For more knowledge of Vedic Science as obtained from Arya Samaj Jamnagar
For movement of Earth refer to R.V 10-22-14, R.V 10-149-1 (Gravitational force of Sun), R.V 8-12-28 and 30, 1-6-5 for the power of Sun to hold the Earth and other planets, Moving planets do not collide R.V 1-164-13, Y.V 33-43, A.V 4-11-1
Eclipse
refer to R.V 5-40-5–the earth gets scared by sudden darkness when O: Surya you are blocked by the one to whom you have gifted your own light (Moon).
On the science of Telegraphy and aircraft and ship building refer to RV 1-119-10, RV 1-116-3,4,5 and 6, 11-134-2 and 7, 1-148- 8

WORLD REMEMBERS 30th ANNIVERSARY OF CHERNOBYL DISASTER

Today, Tuesday, April 26, 2016, 30th Anniversary Day of Chernobyl Disaster, I join families of all victims in Ukraine and Belarus to show my respect to those killed due to Chernobyl Disaster. The cleaning work and decommissioning of remaining nuclear reactors still continues in Chernobyl. Nuclear Waste has to be stored in containers and monitored for hundreds of years and mankind has to constantly remind itself of challenges and risks posed by Nuclear Energy. Chernobyl Nuclear Accident changed the lives of people in Ukraine and Belarus ( please view photo images ) and World cannot afford to forget lessons learned.

I arrived in Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA during July 1986 after witnessing consequences of Chernobyl Nuclear Accident while I lived in Sultanate of Oman where several European farm products are used on a regular basis. I had to change my shopping habits to avoid consuming food or food products exposed to radioactive fallout. This Nuclear Accident forced me to review my opinion of Nuclear Industry. I am not surprised to find that I worked for Greenpeace USA for ten years (1986 to 1996) to promote alternatives to Nuclear Energy as it poses significant risks to our planet and to all forms of life that depend on planet Earth as their home.

ON 30th ANNIVERSARY OF CHERNOBYL DISASTER, UKRAINE REMEMBERS ITS VICTIMS

Ukraine held memorial services on Tuesday to mark the 30th anniversary of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster, which permanently poisoned swathes of eastern Europe and highlighted the shortcomings of the secretive Soviet system. In the early hours of April 26, 1986, a botched test at the nuclear plant in then-Soviet Ukraine triggered a meltdown that spewed deadly clouds of atomic material into the atmosphere, forcing tens of thousands of people from their homes.
Relatives of those who died as a result of the world’s worst nuclear accident attended a candle-lit vigil in a Kiev church, built-in their memory.

“We did not think that this accident would change all our lives, dividing them into ‘before the war’ and ‘after the war’ as we called it. It was silent nuclear war for us,” said Lyudmila Kamkina, a former worker at the plant.

**WORLD REMEMBERS 30th ANNIVERSARY OF CHERNOBYL DISASTER. MEMORIAL SERVICE HELD ON APRIL 26, 2016.**

© Efrem Lukatsky/ AP Photo People lay flowers to commemorate victims of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster, during a ceremony at the memorial to Chernobyl workers and firefighters in the town of Slavutych, Ukraine, early Tuesday, April 26, 2016. Ukraine marks the 30th anniversary of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster, when the 4th unit of the plant exploded early hours April 26, 1986. Others gathered for a service in Slavutych, a town 50 km (30 miles) from Chernobyl that was established to house many of those who had to leave their homes for ever.

More than half a million civilian and military personnel were drafted in from across the former Soviet Union as so-called liquidators to clean-up and contain the nuclear fallout, according to the World Health Organization.

Thirty-one plant workers and firemen died in the immediate aftermath of the accident, most from acute radiation sickness.
Over the past three decades, thousands more have succumbed to radiation-related illnesses such as cancer, although the total death toll and long-term health effects remain a subject of intense debate.

Nikolay Chernyavskiy, 65, who worked at Chernobyl and later volunteered as a liquidator, recalls climbing to the roof of his apartment block in the nearby town of Pripyat to get a look at the plant after the accident.
“My son said ‘Papa, Papa, I want to look too’. He’s got to wear glasses now and I feel like it’s my fault for letting him look,” Chernyavskiy said.

Still Cleaning Up: 30 Years After the Chernobyl Disaster The anniversary has garnered extra attention due to the imminent completion of a giant 1.5 billion euros ($1.7 billion) steel-clad arch that will enclose the stricken reactor site and prevent further leaks for the next 100 years.
The project was funded with donations from more than 40 governments. Ukrainian Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman said lessons learned from Chernobyl should be heeded all over the world.

Even with the new structure, the surrounding exclusion zone – 2,600 square km (1,000 square miles) of forest and marshland on the border of Ukraine and Belarus – will remain uninhabitable and closed to unsanctioned visitors.

The disaster and the government’s reaction highlighted the flaws of the Soviet system with its unaccountable bureaucrats and entrenched culture of secrecy. For example, the evacuation order only came 36 hours after the accident.

Former Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev has said he considers Chernobyl one of the main nails in the coffin of the Soviet Union, which eventually collapsed in 1991.

US hostage rescue mission, Operation Eagle Claw launched from Sultanate of Oman on April 24, 1980 to rescue American hostages held in Teheran is of special interest to me for I served in Royal Army of Oman’s Medical Services (Force Medical Services, Sultanate of Oman’s Land Forces) from 1984 to 1986. The rescue mission involved flying six C-130 Transport Aircraft from Masirah Island of Oman. At Khasab, Musandam Peninsula, Oman, I served in Hq PENSEC providing military assistance to US operations in Persian Gulf. Operation Eagle Claw failed but US and Oman friendly relations continue to grow with increasing military cooperation year after year.

HOSTAGE RESCUE MISSION ENDS IN DISASTER

History.com Staff . Website Name: History.com URL: http://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/hostage-rescue-mission-ends-in-disaster Publisher: A+E Networks

On April 24, 1980, an ill-fated military operation to rescue the 52 American hostages held in Tehran ends with eight U.S. servicemen dead and no hostages rescued.
With the Iran Hostage Crisis stretching into its sixth month and all diplomatic appeals to the Iranian government ending in failure, President Jimmy Carter ordered the military mission as a last-ditch attempt to save the hostages. During the operation, three of eight helicopters failed, crippling the crucial airborne plans. The mission was then canceled at the staging area in Iran, but during the withdrawal one of the retreating helicopters collided with one of six C-130 transport planes, killing eight soldiers and injuring five. The next day, a somber Jimmy Carter gave a press conference in which he took full responsibility for the tragedy. The hostages were not released for another 270 days.

On November 4, 1979, the crisis began when militant Iranian students, outraged that the U.S. government had allowed the ousted shah of Iran to travel to the U.S. for medical treatment, seized the U.S. embassy in Tehran. The Ayatollah Khomeini, Iran’s political and religious leader, took over the hostage situation and agreed to release non-U.S. captives and female and minority Americans, citing these groups as among the people oppressed by the U.S. government. The remaining 52 captives remained at the mercy of the Ayatollah for the next 14 months.

President Carter was unable to diplomatically resolve the crisis, and the April 1980 hostage attempt ended in disaster. Three months later, the former shah died of cancer in Egypt, but the crisis continued. In November, Carter lost the presidential election to Republican Ronald Reagan, and soon after, with the assistance of Algerian intermediaries, successful negotiations began between the United States and Iran. On the day of Reagan’s inauguration, January 20, 1981, the United States freed almost $8 billion in frozen Iranian assets, and the 52 hostages were released after 444 days. The next day, Jimmy Carter flew to West Germany to greet the Americans on their way home.

KIM KARDASHIAN – RAISE HANDS – PRAISE THE LORD

KIM KARDASHIAN – RAISE HANDS – PRAISE THE LORD

On March 08, International Women’s Day, Kim Kardashian tweeted her naked photo with caption #Liberated. She expressed a sense of ‘shame’ about her nakedness and covered it with help from her hands.

ORIGINAL SIN AND SHAME

For Kim Kardashian expressed a sense of ‘SHAME’ about her naked body, the problem of nakedness has to be examined from its beginning or origin.

KIM KARDASHIAN - RAISE HANDS - PRAISE THE LORD. GOD CREATED MAN IN HIS OWN IMAGE GIVING HIM PERFECT BODY AND PERFECT SOUL. WOMAN IS GOD'S PLAN TO GIVE MAN A COMPANION. — **KIM KARDASHIAN – RAISE HANDS – PRAISE THE LORD. GOD CREATED MAN IN HIS OWN IMAGE GIVING HIM PERFECT BODY AND PERFECT SOUL. WOMAN IS GOD’S PLAN TO GIVE MAN A COMPANION.**

KIM KARDASHIAN - RAISE HANDS - PRAISE THE LORD. GOD CREATED MAN AND WOMAN WITH PERFECT BODY AND PERFECT SOUL. HUMAN NATURE CAME INTO EXISTENCE WITHOUT SENSE OF SHAME ABOUT NATURAL NAKED BODIES. — **KIM KARDASHIAN – RAISE HANDS – PRAISE THE LORD. GOD CREATED MAN AND WOMAN WITH PERFECT BODY AND PERFECT SOUL. HUMAN NATURE CAME INTO EXISTENCE WITHOUT SENSE OF SHAME ABOUT NATURAL NAKED BODIES.**

God created man and woman with Perfect Body and Perfect Soul. Human Nature came into existence without sense of shame about natural naked bodies.

KIM KARDASHIAN - RAISE HANDS - PRAISE THE LORD. THE MAN AND HIS WIIFE WERE BOTH NAKED AND THEY FELT NO SHAME. GENESIS 2:25 — **KIM KARDASHIAN – RAISE HANDS – PRAISE THE LORD. THE MAN AND HIS WIFE WERE BOTH NAKED AND THEY FELT NO SHAME. GENESIS 2:25**

When Adam and Eve disobeyed God, they immediately became ashamed of their bodies and wanted to hide.

KIM KARDASHIAN - RAISE HANDS - PRAISE THE LORD. "THEN THE EYES OF BOTH OF THEM OPENED AND THEY REALIZED THEY WERE NAKED." GENESIS 3:7 — **KIM KARDASHIAN – RAISE HANDS – PRAISE THE LORD. “THEN THE EYES OF BOTH OF THEM OPENED AND THEY REALIZED THEY WERE NAKED.” GENESIS 3:7**

While Original Human Nature is born without Sin, Guilt, or Shame, man and woman’s act of Disobedience introduced Sin, Guilt, and Shame as features of human Behavior. Ever since from the first act of Disobedience or ‘Original Sin’, human beings have been hiding from each other and from God.

SIN AND LIBERATION

KIM KARDASHIAN - RAISE HANDS - PRAISE THE LORD. KARDASHIAN CLAIMED THAT SHE IS LIBERATED WHILE EXPRESSING SENSE OF SHAME ABOUT HER NAKEDNESS WHICH SHE COVERED USING HANDS. — **KIM KARDASHIAN – RAISE HANDS – PRAISE THE LORD. KARDASHIAN CLAIMED THAT SHE IS LIBERATED WHILE EXPRESSING SENSE OF SHAME ABOUT HER NAKEDNESS WHICH SHE COVERED USING HANDS.**

Sin is condition and activity of human beings that is offensive to God. Human beings were created by God without Sin. But, Eve and Adam chose to act contrary to God’s revealed Will thereby causing Sin to become permanent feature of human existence.

KIM KARDASHIAN - RAISE HANDS - PRAISE THE LORD. JESUS REPLIED, "I TELL YOU THE TRUTH, EVERYONE WHO SINS IS A SLAVE TO SIN." JOHN 8:34 — **KIM KARDASHIAN – RAISE HANDS – PRAISE THE LORD. JESUS REPLIED, “I TELL YOU THE TRUTH, EVERYONE WHO SINS IS A SLAVE TO SIN.” JOHN 8:34**

Sin is revolt against holiness and sovereign Will of God through thoughts, words, and deeds that offend God and transgress His Holy Law. The essence of Liberty and Liberation lies not in external freedom but in deliverance from the bondage of Sin and its consequent inner corruption.

LIBERATED – FREEDOM FROM SIN

KIM KARDASHIAN - RAISE HANDS - PRAISE THE LORD. THE ESSENCE OF LIBERTY AND LIBERATION LIES NOT IN EXTERNAL FREEDOM. — **KIM KARDASHIAN – RAISE HANDS – PRAISE THE LORD. THE ESSENCE OF LIBERTY AND LIBERATION LIES NOT IN EXTERNAL FREEDOM.**

Kim Kardashian’s claim about ‘Liberation’ needs clarification. The word ‘Liberate’ means to set free, to release from slavery; the securing of equal social and economic rights, or freeing people from social, economic, and political oppression and injustice. Kardashian has not specified that she is ‘FREE’ from inner corruption of real or true human nature.

KIM KARDASHIAN - RAISE HANDS - PRAISE THE LORD. — **KIM KARDASHIAN – RAISE HANDS – PRAISE THE LORD. KARDASHIAN HAS TO SPECIFY THE NATURE OF HER LIBERTY, LIBERATION THAT MAY DESCRIBE HER CONDITION CALLED “LIBERATED.”**

Kim Kardashian has to specify the nature of her ‘Liberty’, ‘Liberation’ that may describe her condition called “LIBERATED.”

FREEDOM IN THE YEAR OF THE LORD’S FAVOR

KIM KARDASHIAN - RAISE HANDS - PRAISE THE LORD. THIS IS THE YEAR OF THE LORD'S FAVOR. KARDASHIAN HAS TO SEEK LORD'S FAVOR TO DISCOVER REAL OR TRUE FREEDOM. — **KIM KARDASHIAN – RAISE HANDS – PRAISE THE LORD. THIS IS THE YEAR OF THE LORD’S FAVOR. KARDASHIAN HAS TO SEEK LORD’S FAVOR TO DISCOVER REAL OR TRUE FREEDOM.**

This is the Year of the LORD’S Favor. Kim Kardashian has to seek LORD’S Favor to discover real or true Freedom.

Kim Kardashian in her thoughts, words, and seeds exists as a prisoner for she is still held captive by inner corruption.

INTELLIGENCE vs COMPASSION – GOOGLE PROGRAM DEFEATS CHESS CHAMPION

INTELLIGENCE vs COMPASSION – GOOGLE PROGRAM DEFEATS CHESS CHAMPION

In board games like Chess, players move pieces on surface of board according to rules of the game. The player loses game when his piece ‘King’ is lost or ‘King’ is under ‘Check’ or threatened by ‘Checkmate’. The Game may not allow an external force to ‘uplift’ King to grant him release from threat.

Artificial Intelligence cannot match uplifting power of Compassion for Compassion acts like Physical Force to cause motion not governed by Laws of Motion described in Physics. Compassion has nothing to do with intelligence or ability of performing intelligent actions. Compassion is unrelated to intellectual functions. It is not likely to match intelligent actions with compassionate actions. Compassion is a response evoked when a Subject witnesses pain and suffering being experienced by another individual or living entity. Compassion not only provides motivation or drive to perform selected sequence of actions, but it provides physical energy to perform selected task with ease, without experiencing stress or strain. The Force of Compassion acts upon both parties, the party performing compassionate action and the party receiving benefit of compassionate action. Both experience a sense of satisfaction and happiness while they are under influence of Compassion. For a natural instinct like Compassion, there can be no artificial counterpart. In my view, Google’s Artificial Intelligence Program called ‘DeepMind’ cannot fathom depths of Compassion.

MASTER OF Go BOARD GAME IS WALLOPED BY GOOGLE COMPUTER PROGRAM

AlphaGo has become much stronger since its matches with Mr. Fan, its developers said.

It challenged Mr. Lee because it was ready to take on someone “iconic,” “a legend of the game,” Mr. Hassabis said. Google offered Mr. Lee $ 1 million if he wins the best-of-five series.

Tens of thousands of people watched the contest live on YouTube.
Choe Sang-Hun reported from Seoul, and John Markoff from San Francisco.

Some computer scientists said Wednesday that they had expected the outcome.
“I’m not surprised at all,” said Fei-Fei Li, a Stanford University computer scientist
who is director of the Stanford Artificial Intelligence Laboratory. “How come we are not surprised that a car runs faster than the fastest human?”

Master of Go Board Game Is Walloped by Google Computer Program

By CHOE SANG-HUN and JOHN MARKOFF

MARCH 9, 2016

SEOUL, South Korea — Computer, one. Human, zero.

A Google computer program stunned one of the world’s top players on

Wednesday (March 09, 2016) in a round of Go, which is believed to be
the most complex board game ever created.

The match — between Google DeepMind’s AlphaGo and the South Korean
Go master Lee Se-dol — was viewed as an important test of how far research
into artificial intelligence has come in its quest to create machines smarter
than humans.

“I am very surprised because I have never thought I would lose,” Mr. Lee said
at a news conference in Seoul. “I didn’t know that AlphaGo would play such
a perfect Go.”

Mr. Lee acknowledged defeat after three and a half hours of play.
Demis Hassabis, the founder and chief executive of Google’s artificial
intelligence team DeepMind, the creator of AlphaGo, called the
program’s victory a “historic moment.”

MARCH 9, 2016

The match, the first of five scheduled through Tuesday, took place at a Seoul hotel amid intense news media attention. Hundreds of reporters, many of them from China, Japan and South Korea, where Go has been played for centuries, were there to cover it. Tens of thousands of people watched the contest live on YouTube.

Lee Se-dol, the world’s top player of the board game Go, lost the first of five matches to a computer program, AlphaGo, designed by Google DeepMind.

Go is a two-player game of strategy said to have originated in China 3,000 years ago.
Players compete to win more territory by placing black and white “stones” on
a grid measuring 19 squares by 19 squares.

The play is more complex than chess, with a far greater possible sequence of
moves, and requires superlative instincts and evaluation skills. Because of that,
many researchers believed that mastery of the game by a computer was still
a decade away.

Before the match, Mr. Lee said he could win 5-0 or 4-1, predicting that
computing power alone could not win a Go match. Victory takes “human intuition,” something AlphaGo has not yet mastered, he said.
But after reading more about the program he became less upbeat, saying that AlphaGo appeared able to imitate human intuition to a certain degree and predicting that artificial intelligence would eventually surpass humans in Go.

AlphaGo posed Mr. Lee a unique challenge. In a human-versus-human Go match,
which typically lasts several hours, the players “feel” each other and evaluate styles
and psychologies, he said.

“This time, it’s like playing the game alone,” Mr. Lee said on the eve of the match.
“There are mistakes humans make because they are humans. If that happens to me,
I can lose a match.”

To researchers who have been using games as platforms for testing
artificial intelligence, Go has remained the great challenge since
the I.B.M.-developed supercomputer Deep Blue beta the world chess champion
Garry Kasparov in 1997.

“Really, the only game left after chess id Go,” Mr. Hassabis said on Wednesday.

But Mr. Lee, 33, is one of the world’s most accomplished

professional Go players, with 18 international titles
under his belt. He has called the European champion’s
level in Go “near the top among amateurs.”

AlphaGo has become much stronger since its matches
with Mr. Fan, its developers said.

Mr. Hassabis said AlphaGo did not try to consider all the possible moves
in a match, as a traditional artificial intelligence machine like Deep Blue does.
Rather, it narrows its options based on what it has learned from millions of
matches played against itself and in 100,000 Go games available online.

Mr. Hassabis said that a central advantage of AlphaGo was
that “it will never get tired, and it will not get intimidated either.”

Kim Sung-ryong, a South Korean Go master who provided commentary
during Wednesday’s match, said that AlphaGo made a clear mistake early on,
but that unlike most human players, it did not lose its “cool.”

“It didn’t play Go as a human does,” he said. “It was a Go match with
human emotional elements carved out.”

Mr. Lee said he knew he had lost the match after AlphaGo made a move
so unexpected and unconventional that he thought “it was impossible to make
such a move.”

On Tuesday, before the match began, Oreon the director of the Allen Institute for Artificial Intelligence, a nonprofit research organization
in Seattle, conducted a survey of leading members of the Association for
the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence.

Of 55 scientists, 69 percent believed that the program would win,
and 31 percent believed that Mr. Lee would be victorious.
Moreover, 60 percent believed that the achievement could be
considered a milestone toward building human-level artificial intelligence software.

That question remains one of the most hotly debated within the field of
artificial intelligence. Machines have had increasing success in the past
half-decade at narrow humanlike capabilities, like understanding speech
and vision.

However, the goal of “strong A.I.” — defined as a machine with
an intellectual capability equal to that of a human — remains elusive.

Other artificial-intelligence scientists said that humans might still find refuge
if the goal posts for the competition were moved.

“I wonder what would happen if they played on a 29-by-29 grid?” wondered
Rodney Brooks, a pioneering artificial intelligence researcher. By enlarging the
playing space, humans might once again escape the machine’s computing power.

TAT ASMI PRABHU – FIFTH MAHAVAKYA – SEARCHING FOR GOD

TAT ASMI PRABHU – FIFTH MAHAVAKYA – SEARCHING FOR GOD

The Statement that I refer to as ‘Fifth Mahavakya’ or Fifth Great Aphorism speaks of that particular, specific Individual with Individuality who exists because of yoking or coming together with an entity that is always present, ever-existing addressed as ‘Prabhu’ or LORD God Creator. This Statement gives a sense of direction if man wants to search for God. This Search for God is eloquently stated by India’s Mystic Poet, Guru or Sant Kabir Das(1398 – 1518).

WHO IS KABIR DAS?

Kindly read Kabir Das Bhajan ‘Moko Kahan Dunde re Bande’ which is included in Guru Granth Sahib. Kabir Das recommends finding God as a Personal God for God is with you. You need not search through Meditation or jap or upavas, or any act of ritualistic worship. You don’t want to search and find God in the vast, outer space or universe.

Finding God as personal experience is Indian tradition followed by millions even if they go to temples to offer ritualistic worship. The quest is personal. The experience is personal.

TAT ASMI PRABHU – FIFTH MAHAVAKYA – GOD IS PERSONAL GOD

TAT ASMI PRABHU – FIFTH MAHAVAKYA – GOD IS PERSONAL GOD

On pinterest.com

The statement ‘Tat Asmi Prabhu'( That Who is Yoked with God) may view God as Unmanifest, Absolute Reality or Brahman. In Indian tradition God could be either ‘NIRGUN'(Infinite Being), or ‘SAGUN'(Finite Being with attributes). In my analysis, God is always a ‘Personal God’. God may not be attached to either man or to His Creation. But, man has no such Freedom of Choice. Man has no alternative. Like all other living organisms, man’s physical existence is characterized by ‘Dependence’ and man may experience a sense of ‘Freedom’ in his thoughts or imagination. Man’s Dependence on external source of energy is the only factor that shapes man’s relationship or connection to God. Therefore, man has opportunity to experience God as Creator of his Individual Soul. I cannot share your individualized or personal experience. Similarly, no other person can share my individualized, personal experience. Each one of us has no choice other than that of seeking our own personal experience of God.

This is not a new, or original concept. This is the concept of God shared by Ved Vyas in his epic poem of Bhagavata Purana and this description is mentioned in the story called ‘Gajendra Moksha’.

For man is created as Individual with Individuality, his connection and experience of Creator is a product of his individualized, conditioned existence.

What is Illusion?

On bhavanajagat.com

As per Acharya Nagarjuna, chief proponent of philosophical doctrine called Sunyata or Emptiness, there is no soul, there is no ‘Nirvana’. Sunya is not the equivalent of ‘Nirvana’ unless you want to share a different philosophical doctrine which needs to be explained to me. It is not the same as ‘nothingness’ used by Sartre.

On bhavanajagat.com

It will be easy to remove that pencil from water and prove that the pencil is straight and not bent at water-air interphase. But, we cannot pull man from his conditioned existence as ‘Illusion’ is the basis that establishes man’s existence. Man has no choice other than that of keeping his existence under influence of ‘Illusion’ and measure his lifespan or life time experiencing Sunrise and Sunset while in reality there is no Sunrise or Sunset. To understand man’s condition or state called Sunya or Nirvana, I need to know if that man is breathing, and if that man’s heart is beating.

Tat Asmi Prabhu – Fifth Mahavakya – Existence precedes Essence

The particular entity (“Tat”) claiming ‘Unity’ (through attribute named “ASMI” which means always present or ever-lasting) with “Prabhu” or LORD God Creator has to maintain his existence, a precondition for giving expression to his essence. I can describe my essence (What I am) if and only if it is preceded by my existence (What I do). While existing in the earthly realm, my claims about my true essence, that which makes what I am, true substance underlying my physical manifestation, most important quality of my human form, may exist only in the language it is expressed, or in the mind in which it is conceived. My claims about my essence will be valid if it has correspondence with external reality. If I claim that my essence is always present, or ever-existing, imperishable, indestructible, immutable, immortal, eternal, and even unborn or uncreated, that characteristic must have correspondence with facts of the world in which I exist; correspondence with the place, and the time of my utterance.

In Indian tradition, it is held that man cannot enter ‘heavenly’ or supernatural realm with his mortal, or physical form used during earthly existence. The physical form that is recognized as a man cannot cross the barrier between earthly and supernatural realms. As of today, millions of people travel across the sky and yet their existence is governed or ruled by conditions of earthly existence. A man may visit Moon or even Mars, his existence at any given place in entire Cosmos will still operate on rules set for earthly creatures. For a man, there is no ‘Second Home’.

Tat Asmi Prabhu. The Fifth Mahavakya. Existence precedes Essence.

My interest in Soul or Spirit is because of its association with my created, physical being that exists as Individual with Individuality. Apart from its function as a vital, animating principle of Life, Soul or Spirit gets attention for it gives the Individual the experience of his Individuality.

For every phenomenon in Nature, there is an underlying, unchanging Principle that makes possible to observe the phenomenon of change. For example, man’s physical form or appearance experiences constant change under influence of time called aging phenomenon. This experience called aging is possible because it is supported by an underlying, unchanging principle which is always present or ever-existing. Spirit or Soul maintains ‘Individuality’ of specific Individual while his physical identity undergoes changes due to the aging process. In other words, it will be rational to claim Spirit or Soul as my true essence while I keep my physical existence in the world as specific Individual with unvarying Individuality.

I do not want to speculate as to what happens to Spirit or Soul at the end of man’s mortal existence. Man, as I mentioned before, is eternally separated from the heavenly or supernatural realm as his physical being is conditioned to experience only earthly existence. If Soul or Spirit enters heavenly or supernatural realm as “immaterial” or incorporeal principle, it will not be able to maintain its nature associated with Individuality of that specific Individual with which it existed before. For purposes of Individuality, the Individual thing has to separate itself from all other material or immaterial things. If several, Individual Souls or Spirits enter the heavenly or supernatural realm, each has to separate itself from all other things and occupy designated space of that realm or domain.

In Indian tradition, the concept of ‘NIRVANA’, blowing out, or extinction of the ‘flame of life’ involves a reunion with Unmanifested, Ultimate Reality called ‘Brahman’. In Buddhism, the concept of ‘NIRVANA’ may not always demand extinction of life; it may mean state of perfect blessedness achieved by the extinction of individual existence by the extinction of all desires and passions. The concepts of ‘Afterlife’ or Life after Death have to attach meaning to words such as “MOKSH”, Liberation, or Salvation by explaining as to how Individual things are separated from other material or immaterial things to maintain their Individuality while they exist in any extraterrestrial realm or domain.

Transforming “I” into “I am”

I am not aware of the universal soul (other than God viewed as Unmanifest) that may pervade all creation. In the context of earthly living creatures, the soul is concerned with giving ‘individuality’ to individual living things. The concept of the soul helps me to make a distinction between inanimate and animate, or nonliving and living. What we recognize as inert matter consists of chemical elements which always retain certain characteristics as if they are immutable, indestructible, immortal, eternal and even unborn. The animate matter is conscious whereas the inanimate lacks that functional ability. We use the term death or dying in respect of living creatures. It does not mean living matter is perishable. Living matter has same chemicals like carbon and nitrogen which we find in inert matter. None of the chemical elements of living matter experience any decay or deterioration; as such they are eternal. New life forms always need these nutrient chemical elements and death helps the birth of new life. The term death or dying simply explains the loss of morphological appearance of individual lifeforms. When the soul departs, the living thing loses life supporting connection with Supersoul, the connection to access an external source of energy. Without God Connection, a living organism can no longer build, repair or breakdown molecules of life.

Life on this planet had a creative beginning and man just arrived as a newly created object.

In my view, Shankara gives no explanation as to how “Self” or “I” gets transformed into a living being that recognizes the fact of it’s own existence and speaks as “I am.” I like Shankara’s concept of “MAYA” but I account for it in a different way. I do not think Shankara had any insight about gravitational force.

The Problem of Body-Soul Dichotomy. Kshetra – Kshetrajna Vibhaga Yoga, Bhagavad Gita, Chapter XIII

While Shankara described perfect identity between Soul (Atma) and Supersoul (Paramatma), I am not able to support that view. I do not strictly adhere to the doctrine of ‘Monism’ which makes no distinction between the Individual Soul and Supersoul or God. I describe unity between Atma and Paramatma while they are distinct or separate. I do not totally embrace the doctrine of ‘Dualism’ for I have to account for the yoking, the coming together, the joining, the pairing, the relationship, the partnership, and the association between two entities named soul and Supersoul. The result of this unity or the consequence of this connection is that of the singular effect that an observer can recognize as the mortal entity called Man. When you taste Salt, the sensation imparted is the most important singular effect. A proponent of Dualism may prove that Salt consists of two entirely different chemical elements but that reality cannot account for the effect caused by their coming together. Man can never discern the taste of Sodium or Chlorine while tasting Salt. In terms of human existence, this pairing or yoking is the most significant effect and there is no entity called Man when the two become unstuck. I can separate Salt into Sodium and Chlorine, but I cannot separate Man into soul and Supersoul. They have to remain together; there is no reality called the Man without that unity.

Verse 14, Chapter XIII, Bhagavad Gita describes the complex nature of relationships between senses and material nature. Supersoul is completely ‘unattached'(“asaktam”, or ‘Udasin’), yet the Sustainer of everything; transcendental to material nature yet the Maintainer of material nature.

Discovery of Chemical Structure of DNA – FEBRUARY 28, 1953

**Discovery of Chemical Structure of DNA on February 28, 1953. “Life is Knowledge in Action.”**

**The Discovery of Chemical Structure of DNA on February 28, 1953.**

**Discovery of DNA Chemical Structure on February 28, 1953 by Cambridge University Scientists James Watson and Frances Crick. “Life is Knowledge in Action.”**

On this day, February 28, 1953, James Watson and Frances Crick announced their discovery of chemical structure of DNA. It is important to recognize DNA molecules as source of biological information, genetic information, or innate knowledge that enables living cells to perform a variety of guided, sequential, purposeful, and goal-oriented ‘immanent’ actions. It helps me to define the term ‘Life’ as, “Life is Knowledge in Action.”

**Discovery of Chemical Structure of DNA on February 28, 1953. Thanks to Rosalind Franklin for her contribution. “Life is Knowledge in Action.”**

At King’s College London, Rosalind Franklin obtained images of DNA using X-ray crystallography, an idea first broached by Maurice Wilkins. Franklin’s images allowed James Watson and Francis Crick to create their famous two-strand, or double-helix, model.

**Discovery of Chemical Structure of DNA on February 28, 1953. Thanks to Scientist Rosalind Franklin and the photographs she provided. “Life is Knowledge in Action.”**

In 1962 Watson (b. 1928), Crick (1916–2004), and Wilkins (1916–2004) jointly received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for their 1953 determination of the structure of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). Wilkins’s colleague Franklin (1920–1958), who died from cancer at the age of 37, was not so honored. The reasons for her exclusion have been debated and are still unclear. There is a Nobel Prize stipulation that states “in no case may a prize amount be divided between more than three persons.” The fact she died before the prize was awarded may also have been a factor, although the stipulation against posthumous awards was not instated until 1974.

**The Discovery of the Chemical Structure of DNA on February 28, 1953.**

However, DNA molecules do not acquire energy from an external source. Cytoplasm or Protoplasm has power called ‘Nutrition’ with which it attracts matter found in external environment of cell. For this reason, Viruses that are basically constituted by DNA or RNA molecules are not capable of independent existence and their living functions such as replication demand assistance from a living host cell.

DNA is an important biomolecule for it directs protein synthesis and yet it does not qualify as vital, animating principle found in all living organisms.

LIFE IS KNOWLEDGE IN ACTION

Feb 28

THIS DAY IN HISTORY

The artistic depiction of the Double-Helix structure of the DNA molecule. The DNA molecule always exhibits individualistic variation in its behavior. In other words, with a natural, or synthetic genome, two living entities will always exist as Individuals with Individuality. Life as such is a created phenomenon, with or without patent, no individual, or corporation has the ability to transgress this fundamental Law of Nature.

This Day In History: 02/28/1953 – DNA Structure Discovered

On February 28th many historical events occurred. These events are recapped by Russell Mitchell in this video clip from “This Day in History”. The discovery of DNA by James Watson and Frances Crick being a major one for the scientific community. Not only was DNA discovered on this day, but the Republican Party was founded in Wisconsin. The well-known album Thriller by Michael Jackson won eight Emmy awards as well.

Watson and Crick discover chemical structure of DNA

On this day in 1953, Cambridge University scientists James D. Watson and Frances H.C. Crick announce that they have determined the double-helix structure of DNA, the molecule containing human genes.
Though DNA–short for deoxyribonucleic acid–was discovered in 1869, its crucial role in determining genetic inheritance wasn’t demonstrated until 1943. In the early 1950s, Watson and Crick were only two of many scientists working on figuring out the structure of DNA. California chemist Linus Pauling suggested an incorrect model at the beginning of 1953, prompting Watson and Crick to try and beat Pauling at his own game. On the morning of February 28, they determined that the structure of DNA was a double-helix polymer, or a spiral of two DNA strands, each containing a long chain of monomer nucleotides, wound around each other. According to their findings, DNA replicated itself by separating into individual strands, each of which became the template for a new double helix. In his best-selling book, The Double Helix (1968), Watson later claimed that Crick announced the discovery by walking into the nearby Eagle Pub and blurting out that “we had found the secret of life.” The truth wasn’t that far off, as Watson and Crick had solved a fundamental mystery of science–how it was possible for genetic instructions to be held inside organisms and passed from generation to generation.
Watson and Crick’s solution was formally announced on April 25, 1953, following its publication in that month’s issue of Nature magazine. The article revolutionized the study of biology and medicine. Among the developments that followed directly from it were pre-natal screening for disease genes; genetically engineered foods; the ability to identify human remains; the rational design of treatments for diseases such as AIDS; and the accurate testing of physical evidence in order to convict or exonerate criminals.
Crick and Watson later had a falling-out over Watson’s book, which Crick felt misrepresented their collaboration and betrayed their friendship. A larger controversy arose over the use Watson and Crick made of research done by another DNA researcher, Rosalind Franklin, whose colleague Maurice Wilkins showed her X-ray photographic work to Watson just before he and Crick made their famous discovery. When Crick and Watson won the Nobel Prize in 1962, they shared it with Wilkins. Franklin, who died in 1958 of ovarian cancer and was thus ineligible for the award, never learned of the role her photos played in the historic scientific breakthrough.

TAT ASMI PRABHU – FIFTH MAHAVAKYA – THREE FUNDAMENTAL DISTINCTIONS

TAT ASMI PRABHU – FIFTH MAHAVAKYA – THREE FUNDAMENTAL DISTINCTIONS

Man has no intrinsic ability to comprehend Infinite Being with no Form, Shape, Beginning, or Ending. You are free to choose your ‘GURU’, or surrender to your personal God with respect, devotion, and humility.

My discussion is limited to present existence, in present time, under present external environmental conditions. We are able to express our views and share our views with each other as external conditions permit us to do so. In historical context, man has no ability to change or alter events in his external environment. Countless millions of innocent people perished in our Land when a foreign or external influence tried to replace or overcome native beliefs and doctrines. I may have the most perfect understanding of God and yet my existence at all times needs mercy, grace, and compassion of an external force that regulates my life. Apart from external events, man cannot even regulate, govern, or rule his own body. The concepts of Self-Discipline, Self-Control and others are useful to modify man’s behavior and actions that may impact his body and its well-being. We need not create new doctrines to come to proper understanding of man and his world. There are three fundamental distinctions; 1. Natural(Earthly or Terrestrial)-Supernatural(Extraterrestrial or Cosmic), 2. Material-Spiritual, and 3. Inanimate(Lifeless)-Animate(Living). For these distinctions exist, man encounters various other problems of Dualism such as:

1. Supersoul vs Individual Soul
2. Universal vs Individual
3. Subject vs Object
4. Appearance vs Reality
5. Perceptual vs Categorical
6. Immanent vs Transcendent
7. Regulative vs Constitutive
8. Conditioned vs Unconditioned
9. Physicalistic vs Logistic
10. Life vs Death

I visualize the same Oxidation-Reduction Chemical Reactions shaping events during Life and Death. Without operation of mechanism called Death, Life is impossible on planet Earth. If God created Earth and Life, He had put in place the mechanism called Death to operate Living Systems. Without Death, Life can never proceed.

Indian tradition accepts these problems and Culture provided adaptation mechanisms. If Father is Originating Principle(Seed), Mother is Sustaining Principle, Father is Controller of Energy, Mother is Personification of Energy, Father is Regulative Principle, Mother is Constitutive Principle, Father operates Death, Mother operates Life.

If I accept God, my acceptance demands submission and devotion. It formulates LORD – Devotee relationship. I cannot be both at one and the same time. If I accept GURU, my acceptance demands respect and obedience. It formulates Guru – Disciple relationship. I cannot be both at one and the same time.

From Devinder Singh Gulati:

RELATING TO VARIOUS DOCTRINES

The Bhagwad Gita is not the product of any doctrine. Several can be seen reflected in it.
“The Spirit dwelling in this body, is really the same as the Supreme. He has been spoken of the Witness, the true Guide, the Sustainer of all, the Experiencer (as the embodied soul), the overlord and the Absolute as well”. [13 – 22]. This is relatable to the Yoga doctrine of purusa as sanctioner of acts of prakrit.

It is easy to relate this to Sankhya: “He who sees all actions are performed in everyway by nature (Prakrti) and the Self as the non-doer, he alone verily sees”. [13 – 29]. But its import is somewhat different. He ho has identified himself with the higher consciousness to be able to see that his soul is prisnor to nature, and it is only the nature of Gunas that acts in him, is able to see correctly. This means he sees correctly who sees from non-conditioned existence.

On the other hand this describes ‘pure existence’:
Guru Nanak says, there was darkness and chaos for millions of years. There was only God and nothing else – no mists, no clouds, no vapours, nothing. None existed except God.

“There was darkness for countless years.
There was neither earth nor sky; there was only His Will.
There was neither day nor night, neither sun nor moon.
He (God) was in deep meditation.
There was nothing except Himself (SGGS p1035)”

I have a problem with ‘there was only his Will’ at the point of pure existence.
The moment Will enters, it becomes non-conditioned existence.
Before that it is pure existence (of a non-person).
Will belongs to a person. This is the Will of Naam (Parashakti) that is above the working of nature.
It is not the Will of a person in nature – that would be conditioned existence.

“Guru Amar Das, the third Nanak further clarifies and reinforces this concept in the following lines found in the Guru Granth Sahib:
He created Himself – at that time, there was no other.
He consulted Himself for advice, and what He did came to pass.
At that time, there were no Akaashic Ethers, no nether regions, nor the three worlds.
At that time, only the Formless Lord Himself existed – there was no creation.
As it pleased Him, so did He act; without Him, there was no other. ||; (SGGS p509)”.

I also have a problem with, “He created Himself”.
He is self-existent. He has no beginning.
Creating Himself indicates a beginning.

“Then God willed the creation of the universe. He became manifest: Sargun. He diffused Himself in nature.
Guru Nanak says:Thou created all Thy Universe to please Thyself, to enjoy the spectacle, the reality, which is the light of Thy own Reality-self
http://www.sikhiwiki.org/index.php/Guru_Granth_Sahib_on_the_Universe

I now move to Daljeet Singh’s concept of God:
The Creator is different from the creation which is limited and conditioned. God is uncreated, free and unlimited and thus different from His creation. [No problem with that] God is not the material cause of the universe. [No problem with that, for the material cause is Naam or Parashakti or paraprakrit]. But, no independent Prakriti is assumed. He creates everything. [Now this is a contradictory assertion unless by material cause he means the universe is made of something other than God. That is again a misreading of the Guru Granth Saheb].
http://sikhinstitute.org/essential/ch2.html

But then he is saying something else here. He is saying there is no independent apara prakrit or Ishwar-lsshwari of the lower nature that the Gita tells us about. But that again contradicts the scripture, for the SGGS affirms also the reality of Bramha, Vishnu, Mahesh and of Parbati Mai that are created by Naam the Parashakti.

Now what doctrine is Daljeet Singh adhering to here? It is not Bhed-Abhed. Not the dualist doctrine of Vedanta. It is the dualist doctrine of monotheism.

Actual position well-described by you, Mr Xavier. Bertrand Russell says that components of the universe may have a purpose, but the universe as a whole has no purpose. It has no meaning either. And I think that man is different from other beings only in being more imaginative. But he misuses his imagination by seeing meaning where there is no meaning and aim where there is no aim. Until contrary proof is found, we can say that man is the most intelligent and imaginative of all living beings and can use these faculties in making life comfortable for himself and uncomfortable for other beings. At best there may be extra-terrestrial creatures more intelligent and imaginative than man: we cannot rule out the possibility. Maybe they are making their own life extremely comfortable, but I think even they cannot find meaning in the universe, for the simple reason that it just is not there.

”Life is a futile process that exerts to render eternal what is essentially transient and in the process renders its own meaning to what is essentially meaningless and aim to what is essentially aimless.” – Xavier William

However some try to find meaning in the meaningless and aim to what is aimless within themselves. Invariably they fail. They then seek the meaning in the meaningless and aim in the aimless with parents, companions, gurus, priests, churches, temples, Gurudwaras, books etc Others seek it in the Ganges or in Mecca or in Jerusalem. Invariably and inevitably they fail. But they are reluctant to admit failure in finding meaning in the meaningless and aim in the aimless especially if they have spent considerable energy and resources in searching for the meaning and aim in the meaningless and aimless of life. Consequently they strut around shouting and testifying that they have found meaning and aim in life. Others start all over, searching for the meaning in the meaningless and aim in the aimless, whereas we rationalists have come to the inevitable and logical conclusion that there cannot be any meaning in the meaningless and aim in the aimless which we call life. It is sad. But reality is often bitter and sad. But a realization of reality is always better than the illusion of looking for any meaning in the meaningless and for any aim in the aimless.
