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 arent 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 1920s. 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. Its an ancient method and it is making a revolution as we speak.

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...

THE MISFIT - Part 1

So, what is "normal,”? It’s basically whatever society considers acceptable based on their beliefs and the standards they've set. But does that really make sense? And where does our right to be ourselves fit into all of that? And then there's homosexuality - do people just wake up one day and decide to be gay? How do we wrap our heads around this? There isn't some magic gene that determines someone's sexual orientation. Your DNA can't tell if you're gay or straight. It's not just about biology, psychology, or life experiences - sexuality isn't a conscious choice you make, it's just a part of who you are. No one really knows for sure what causes someone to be gay, just like how you know you're straight. Some people still believe being gay is a choice, often pointing to religious reasons, but that's not entirely accurate. Old prejudices and fears play a big role here. Even if we acknowledge that sexuality exists on a spectrum, many sti...
