CONSCIOUSNESS



In the simplest explanation, Consciousness is awareness of internal or external existence. We have made a great deal of progress in understanding brain activity, and how it contributes to our behaviour but conventional science aren’t able to explain consciousness.

IF MIND IS MATTER...,there was an approach rooted by the philosopher Bertrand Russell Bertrand Russell and the scientist Arthur Eddington in 1920’s. It turns out that physics is confined from telling us about the behaviour of matter. Matter has mass and charge, properties which are entirely characterized in terms of behaviour, attraction, repulsion and resistance to acceleration,..correct? Apparently physics tells us nothing about what philosophers like to call “the intrinsic nature of matter”, how matter is in and of itself.

It turns out, then, that there is a huge hole in our scientific world view where physics leaves us completely in the dark about what matter really is. The proposal of Russell and Eddington was to fill that hole with consciousness. Quite bizzare right?

I believe consciousness is a property of the Universe like the gravity, air, light and the space. Human heart and brains are the only earthly receivers of this ‘cosmic’. Look up for this term Panpsychism. It’s an ancient method and it is making a revolution as we speak.

Freedom of Religion

  The idea of personal belief and individual freedom in matters of religion is a fundamental aspect of many modern societies that uphold principles of personal autonomy and freedom of thought. The notion that religion is a deeply personal and private matter is often rooted in the idea that individuals should have the freedom to explore and practice their own beliefs without external coercion or imposition. In a pluralistic society that values diversity of thought and belief, it is important to respect and uphold the rights of individuals to hold their own religious beliefs without interference or pressure from others. This includes the right to choose one's own faith, to practice it in a way that is meaningful to the individual, and to change or evolve those beliefs over time. Imposing religious beliefs on others can lead to coercion, discrimination, and infringement of personal freedoms. It can also undermine the rich tapestry of beliefs and practices that exist in diverse soc...

THE BATH OF DEATH

THE BATH OF DEATH or what is also known as 'Senicide'. A common practice in India till to date especially in villages. Many questioned how is this cruel compared to euthanasia? Who do we blame? Can education alone solve the social issue?  What sickens me more is, they justify this sinful act saying it is the will of God. It has become a lucrative business in India.  Well, read on what exactly is done to elders by their own children who look at them as burden.  The body is massaged with coconut oil, castor and sesame oils, usually at dawn. After this, the person is given a cold bath and put to bed. The body temperature soon dips, often to a lethal extent. After 15 minutes, the person is made to drink a few glasses of tender coconut water and a glass of milk. This causes renal failure. In a day or two, the person catches a fever and dies. If the oil and coconut water failed, the person would be given a glass of mud mixed with water or a bun which will be forced down their t...

Mahabharata Simplified by LordSeeths

The Mahabharata is one of the two great epics of ancient Indian literature, the other being the Ramayana . It's a complex and multi-layered text, with stories, teachings, and philosophical lessons that have shaped Indian culture for thousands of years. At its core, the Mahabharata is a story of the Kurukshetra War , a grand battle between two groups of cousins—the Pandavas and the Kauravas —but its scope goes far beyond just the war itself. 1. The Core Story (The Kurukshetra War) The Mahabharata tells the story of a dynastic struggle for the throne of the kingdom of Hastinapura . The two main families involved are: Pandavas : Five brothers—Yudhishthira, Bhima, Arjuna, Nakula, and Sahadeva—born to the King Pandu and his wives. Kauravas : The hundred sons of Dhritarashtra, the blind king of Hastinapura, led by the eldest son Duryodhana . The rivalry between the Pandavas and Kauravas escalates, eventually leading to the Kurukshetra War , a massive battle ...
