Religion of Today
There happens to be a situation
of mind when things come within its comprehension, when the truth dawns when
the clarity of every thing comes about and when we say, now I have understood
every thing about every thing and when no doubt about any thing stands any
more. That particular state of mind compels one to accept the truth, nothing
but the truth, the tested one, that particular state of mind remains in the
mind as a golden achievement, an accomplishment that has far reaching impact as
it is going to affect every thing from understanding to judgment, comes to be
known as True Name. Naam, as it is often called, is that particular state of mind
when the state of universe being governed by the natural laws and that legal
system, the most scientific one, where every effect has a cause, and where
every law is modifiable on its own through the constant and consistent binding
force between the cause and effect.
Science itself explores the
universe in order to establish the testimony of natural laws and the more we
discover the more intense becomes the curiosity and we are in a constant strife
to discover more through our sophisticated tools and technology. That system of
Natural laws is Supreme power that keeps things together, and that which can be
sought through logic and inquiry holds more importance than any thing else in
the world as it is capable of explaining with logical coherence every thing
happening on this earth and out there in the universe. Call it by any name, use
any number of adjectives to explain its vast infinite scale, which again is
mind boggling, is the final truth man has come across so far.
Just go to some astronomical museum
and have a look at the galaxy of which is your Solar system a tiny part and the
scale at which it operates causing every thing to happen on this earth and out
there in the space, it will bring you a sense of bewilderment. Amazed as you
are, you will be free from your ego and your sense of superiority as the tiny
fleck of time you hold things together has no entity in the relation with the
laws of Nature. You tend to submit with open mind to this truth the science has
brought to you.
I am told by the scientists
working on the model of the universe with the mind boggling mathematical
calculation it is volatile nature of matter which is causing birth and death of
the universe. I wonder and I submit and promise with myself to follow the laws
of nature whichever and whatever, I find around me with my least involvement to
mend them. I accept the superiority of these laws. To come to this
understanding one needs to develop a scientific temper and an inquiring mind
which enables you to study science not for the same of itself but to understand
the greatest reality.
Obey the laws of nature. Don’t
issue commands to Nature. Don’t ever try to change the course of laws of
nature, because once their orientation is changed they are likely to cause
havoc with your life. Don’t allow the electricity runs through you seat not
simply because you can make such a thing happen, it is dangerous as far as the
nature of electricity is concerned. The behavior of natural laws is ruthless
and devoid all kinds of consideration and benevolence, yet there exists no
antagonism.
To survive against all odds you
need to develop a certain kind of life skill which brings no antagonism and
which enables you to thrive and multiply as you wish. The surviving skill which
you have developed as an organism within the nature again is governed by the
laws of nature. Darwin
has explained it. Natural Science has every thing to you to study and come to
understanding of every thing.
Science is the religion of man in
the modern world and the scientific temper the greatest religious practice. The
whole universe spread before you is the temple of this new God, you being part
of it, not as a master or priest but as a perfect component, one of
millions.
