The missing piece - Time

I have always be intrigued by the fact that no matter how much progress we humans have made, we are still to create anything that is as magnificent or miraculous as that created by nature.

For instance, cloning, nature clones stuff flawlessly while when we humans clones we have always had some problems.

If cloning is complex a thing to do, lets see robotics. No robot till now has matched the complex behavior of robots created by nature.

The question that comes to my mind then is, if the universe has its origins from a common source (the Big Bang theory, nt the tv show plz ;) he he he i cant stop laughing now :D ) then we must all be made up the same elements that the entire universe it made of. Then nature my be using the same elements to create stuff that we have access to.

Then what is that one thing that we dont have because of which we are not able to create things that are even close to the creations of nature?

The only thing that comes to mind is - Time

Nature has lots of it! We don't!    

Regarding Quotes and Sayings

The older the quote or a saying is, the more easily we should believe in it...

The reason is simple that quote or saying has survived the test of time. It has survived hundreds and thousands of - battles, changes in civilizations, languages, epidemics, invasions and what not. Despite all that we still read or hear that quote again and again!

As someone had told me that truth become stronger with time, while a lie become weaker. If the quote has lasted this long, it must be the truth!

However, we must still question it! Why?

Suppose that quote were a lie and because of some reason it kept being passed on for generations and generations, questioning it might end its existence and only those quotes or sayings that were true will be passed! Thus our future generations will have to deal with lesser lies and more truths!

Leading to society build on a foundation of more truth and lesser lies.

Why will We survive?

Every nation is based on a certain fundamental ideology, because of which it flourishes.

For instance the imperialist nations flourished more and more by enslaving more and more colonies.

For nations built on Capitalism, it is all about profits!! Keep expanding, keep manufacturing, keep investing, keep pumping, let the pie gets bigger and bigger. Risk was associated with rewards. Higher the risk higher the reward. Risk also meant failure.

As for the Indian civilization, Knowledge formed our basis! It is because of this very fact that in ancient times we were more advanced than any other civilization.

However for whatsoever the reason if a nation is no longer able to follow its fundamental belief, the nations starts declining. 

When Imperialistic were not able to conquer newer colonies, these nations just collapsed. We see the same thing happening to capitalistic nations. More and more profits require, more and more manufacturing, more and more selling and more and more energy to keep the economy going! Now that the cycle is stopping and people do not know what to do? We Indians destroyed ourselves when we gave up our quest for knowledge, we stopped discovering the outside world, started blindly believing in superstitions and forgot to ask the most important question - Why?

While I am not sure about other nations, I am know that India will make a comeback and that we will survive even the greatest of recessions and depressions? For this we must thank our forefathers who built our great nation on the foundation of knowledge.

Why?

Unlike imperialist and capitalist nations that need insurmountable amount of energy and resources to keep their economies going on, nations based on the foundation of knowledge, flourish simply to using their knowledge. The more we use knowledge the more it grows, the more it evolves and the more it spreads. Which in turn leads to the flourishing of the nation and its people.


I hope re-discover our roots soon and stop blindly copying the West.

The most powerful tool of our times!

The Commenting System!

Just scroll down the a news article and you find whats the real story.You get to read both sides of the story. What do people really thing. What really happened. Which news is real and which one paid. On financial sites when some analyst says buy a stock, scroll down and see what people really think.When governments fudge numbers people reveal the ground reality.

Both the media and the government are helpless. Media because comments lead to discussions and thus traffic but then the credibility of media goes for a toss the moment a paid or a false news is published! And government because it cannot control comments on every site.Free speech is good in theory :)

Sole progress of a nation depends on the discovery of itself...

When does a nation really progress?

Is it when the people discover a new language? Or is it when people change the way they live or dress?

What is that mysterious thing when discovered that the people of a nation really starts progressing?

Its certainly not a new language. We Indians have adopted the Queens Language as if it was our own. However, I am not sure we have made some great leap forward in any field owing to that. In fact in fields like literature and art we have we have produced third rate

Wearing designer or branded stuff has not

But it is when the very same people

Soon they realised they did not need.

Something on AI and Universe.. what can be the title?

Sometimes I wonder, we will never be able to make an Artificially Intelligent source more intelligent that any human, because the creator will anyway be more intelligent that the AI Source.

So that makes me point to one more thing will we ever be able to understand the universe (our creator), for it has to be more intelligent than those, whom it has created!
