Nature and Natural Laws

Where do you live? In the house in the city which is subject to location of your state that exists only because of your country which is part of Sub-Continent in the world that can tracked on the globe called earth in the solar system along with the other heavenly bodies called planets which move along with other numerous solar system in the galaxy which flies through the space at a mind boggling speed more than several thousand kilometers per hour. And this has been happening for million of years.

Can you stop being part of this phenomenon? Even after your death you cannot. It is because your body is made of the same material as the galaxy made of. Chemically you are the same, carbon, iron, copper, silica, water, oxygen, hydrogen, Nitrogen. All these elements behave in a certain manner which is different from one another. What is iron is not copper and what is silica is not calcium.

Being in perfect ratio and at a certain temperature suitable for the organic growth, life began its journey in this earth. Ours is not only earth, they could be several thousand similar planets in the sky with the vibes of life. We don’t know about them. We know of this being possible phenomena because it is governed by some laws of nature. Man has discovered these laws of nature and they are the same and true everywhere in the whole universe. The law of gravity is the same and the same is the thermal principle of fire. Where ever there is fire, it is hot and it burns and produces oxides. Water freezes everywhere at sub zero temperature at a particular atmosphere pressure.

Science is a wonderful component of human knowledge because it discovers, tests and rediscovers the laws of nature. It is the scientific law that every event or incident can be explained with reason to trace its cause and without a reason cause nothing happens in this world. The origin of universe and the total time it has taken to reach its present stage has been discovered and ascertained thus far still giving way to all possible new discoveries that may happen in the latter days.

Science has been assisted a lot by the technology. It is scientific way of developing an application to help man in variety of ways. It develops and uses gadgets which are used by the scientists of reach the outer world. All technologies are based on the laws of science and work very well because these go along the scientific principles of the universe. Therefore, thus far, it has been ascertained that nothing in the world is known to have existed in the contravention of basic principles of Nature.

Nature is not God. God is subjective and human invention. It is not found in the world of organic life outside man. God is an institution invented and designed Man to found its social system of habitation. Animals did not need it, neither did plants. Any divine experience explained by the religious texts every where and any where is just human. It did not exist before the origin of man on the globe and it will be gone with the last man on this earth. All branches of knowledge which eulogize and explain divine experience came to exist only with man.

Nature around us is the exact manifestation of natural laws operating all around us incessantly and these laws are discoverable and can be tested in controlled condition. They are true everywhere in the universe. Any change in the behavior of matter or energy is explainable too. New discoveries and new experiments are yielding new data and there is every legitimate reason to update the knowledge and assimilate the old with the new.  But any deviation cannot be ascribed to some supernatural.  All spiritualism and spiritual explanations are subjective and differ from culture to culture and man to man. Hence it is a futile exercise to hold some spiritual or supernatural power responsible for some usual things.


Science studies the behaviour of matter and energy and thus comes up with natural laws or the laws that govern the matter. These laws enable to great extent to predict the behaviour of energy and material. The knowledge of these laws helps us to modify our life and living structure. It is with the help of this knowledge that we are living in better houses, with modified furniture and other means of communication. This has obviously and naturally affected our life style too.  We are able to develop a better life skill with all modified means of earning our livelihood and living standard,
