all you guys might be wondering what has happened to me, how i come switch myself to this situation :P
relax, i haven't deviated from the original topic of cosmos, universe, but just taking to the other side of theories of cosmos, to be precise, I'm going to talk from Indian point of view.
lets first see whats life.
we can certainly define "not dead" as "alive" or "full of life"
but this is unclear, since we don't have fixed clear and independent definition of life
does life means consciousness?
consciousness in terms of knowing whats going around us, feeling the feel, feeling pain, joy, sorrow etc
seams simple isn't it
but tell me one thing that if this is consciousness then what about those people who as in coma?
they cannot feeling anything in medical terms yet we categorize them as undead or alive
here the whole definition of "life" or "alive" changes
i say, we don't know yet what is life and being alive actually means.
for understanding the meaning or getting definition of life we have to look into our Upanishads they have great deal of knowledge about what i life and what is death
talking of death lets explore this section as well
so what is death
again as it has been defined, death is the state where one looses consciousness
but here we can look towards those unfortunate people who are, or were in coma.
so what is life and death,
it has been question of ages long that what happens after death, what happens to that particular person that dies?
what is lost of him?
to this i would like to introduce you to a well known person, gawd :P
i don't believe in god, but i believe in cosmos, and its also called bhramand
Brahmans actually means big, very big, very very big
it has been clearly stated in Upanishads and Veda Purana's that god is everywhere
by this they actually meant that god is Brahmans,
as i earlier stated in my blogs that matter and energy are inter-convertible.
so?
so whats the deal with this has to do with god or Brahmans,
you still didn't get it?
well think about it, there is this universe, and there is our small earth, on this small earth we are smaller, and in us, yet smaller is our heart and brain, and still smaller are those cells, and it is made up of matter
just the same matter of which the universe,
those cells have energy which is again we get from matters we eat
so aren't matter and energy inter convertible?
then what has "the god" has to do with creation at all?
if matter and energy was inter convertible then there was no need of super power,
or if i say correctly then there was no need of "god", then why in India we have 56 crore god and goddess?
how come they even came into existence
if we go back to over holy books, specially Gita we find Krishna preaching Arjuna when Arjuna said why he would have to kill his own people, and wont he be a sinner,
to this Krishna said the same thing which i have been blabbering but in different language.....he simply said, souls cannot be created nor destroyed, they are always there, only there bodies die.
isn't this similar to what we are discussing today?
coming back to the title, life after death
if we believe Krishna and Einstein then we have something in us that never "dies" or "cease to exists"
what is that, we don't know
who gave us that, we know
yes the universe gave that power to us, in us, to be immortal in some other sense which we have yet to know, yet to discover.
some people say they saw ghost of there loved one
on medical terms they are delusioned, on Adhyatmik terms they have just seen the soul, that particular power of cosmos or universe which has been given to us, and if we continue believing Krishna then according to him those are the souls who haven't overcome earthy values etc etc.....
I'm not comfortable even with this idea and find this very, utterly controversial to even to complete the sentence, as i believe in science and universe, i will just add and say same thing what he said in today's clear language,
when people see ghost, they might come across the power of universe which hasn't yet found balance or enough energy to convert itself into another matter, too keep the balance of universe that energy keeps wandering which might be experienced by some very delicate and sensitive persons.
however, i haven't yet come across any such experience, and my mind says i have yet to understand and receive this awesome power of understand the greater being and heart says that I'm not meant to understand it yet.......................
this might shock you the least that i am and Atheist.
to be continued :)

Cosmos - The Fourth Dimension
probably you might be thinking am out of my mind, there is not such thing called fourth dimension,
actually there can be, for ages theoreticians have argued that there is a fourth dimension.
at the end of this blog you will in fact ask yourself, what did i say is it true, or i just wasted your time, blogspot's space and my bandwidth. :P
lets look into history a bit, when newton saw apple falling towards earth he felt something was wrong, he wondered why the apple fell down and why didn't it was there on tree or why it didn't hover in air, why it fell down.
since then after the discovery of gravity he never rested, he did every possible discovery which later on helped us (for few people like me it was burden in schools :P )
then came in Einstein, with his famous theory of relativity, and time dilation theory and space travel theories etc etc,
he was the first guy in fact to propose that there might be a fourth dimension.
first to understand anything about this so called fourth dimension, lets look into the matter which made him curious to even say that there was a fourth dimension.
lets start with dimension, what is dimension, who is it?
the actual defination of dimension is the magnitude of something in a particular direction (especially length or width or height),
did you notice anything in this sentence
the main culprit is this definition itself. it says that dimension is the magnitude of something in particular direction especially length or width or height the definition itself says that there can be only 3 dimension, so people wondered why only 3 factors, why not a fourth one?
to understand it more closely....hoping that you are familiar with class 8 geometry
consider a point,
a point is nothing but a dimensionless thing, it doesn't has thickness, length nor height, it is a dimensionless thing hanging in air which assigns itself to some place in space.
so now we are clear on fact that point is dimensionless thing...next is line
take a point and pull it to some length so as it follows straight motion, what do you get, yes a line.
so i can say, that a line is actually group of points kept close enough and in straight way so they group together to form a line, nice and easy, and since it is made up of points...lots of point so it will have its property of being dimensionless in terms of thickness and height, however it now has some length.
this line now can be rotated through an axis i.e a point
try it yourself ,draw a line and try to rotate it, you will see that you always have to select a point to do so.
so this is fact that line can be rotated only through a point as an axis
next....take 3 more similar lines, of same length and join then such that they are 90ยบ, looks like square to me, to you?
so now we are meeting this new thing called 2 dimensional structure, as it has length and breadth,
now lets rotate this square as well, we can rotate it in two ways, at one apex, i.e point and one at side, i.e length/breadth.
if i take one more identical square and four more line of same lenght side and join two squares by those lines, i get a cube, nice and good, (most of us have seen Rubik's cube), try to rotates this as well, you can rotate it from its apex, a side as well as whole plane.
so we have now been introduced by all three dimensions
but what about the fourth dimension, where will i draw it, its been said that the fourth dimension can be drawn such that it is perpendicular to all the 3 dimension drawn earlier, practically it is not possible, but theoretically, lets see it,
lets assume that there was a flatland, where everything was flat, everything was in 2-D,
people are square, rectangle, triangle, circle, line etc all 2-D.
so these people will know only two dimension, forward-backward, left-right, but not up-down.
these people will see edges of other persons, since they have no height so they don't know about anything like height and up and down,
one day an apple falls on this flatland
now people don't take heed to this because all they see is that there are some 3 odd shaped circle which moves together, they wonder might these be some CIA agents, as they stick so closely together and move at one and the same time,
then apple finds it nagging and kicks one square, for the first time in his life square moves up, and all of sudden he see something very big in red which is un-usually above as well as below him....
people in flatland wonder where did Mr.Square go all of sudden, he simply vanished...
when that square returns back to flatland, people ask him "where the heck did you go?"
he simply replies "i think i was up!"
other people think he has gone insane as there is no such thing called up, and his family always had delusions :P
same is with us....since we live in 3D we have hard time imagine
for fourth dimension,
but wait again, if there was a fourth dimension such that it was perpendicular to every other axis or direction,
thinking of it, we cant imagine there could be anything like that, but if see the flatland case then arent we sure missing something?
but still if we have a direction such hat it is perpendicular to every other direction then how will it rotate?
at axis? or at apex? or at side?
well buddy, it revolves around itself, didn't get it? think you are in 4th dimension, then you can rotate such that your internal organs come out and your skin goes inside, but after some time, skin comes out and organs go back inside :)
err....it not so pleasant right....well the pleasant diagram showing is below.
just imagine if we somehow manage to go into this fourth dimension, wouldn't it be wonderful experience (except the part where viscera comes out )
this is called a Tesseract. a four dimensional cube
but through ages people debate they were abducted by aliens and had out of body experience some even say that they dreamt of something that happened to them next morning, i believe they went in fourth dimension, they went there and saw things in fourth
i believe that if we could find a way to go and come back from fourth dimension then we will able to see our future, and even change it..........think about it
to be continued.....

Cosmos - A star is born.....somewhere
in last post i introduced you to fact that stars were actually nothing but ball of gas and dust, but heck why they do glow?
most of us have only seen a bulb and tube light (some even see fluorescent watches as light source) but yes stars too glow like all these, in fact they have there own light, just like our beloved sun who is million-billion years old. our grandpa
to understand why they glow, we would have to go to molecular level, even towards atoms.
in our universe we have hydrogen in abundant which is a perfect fuel.
so far so good, hydrogen is fuel and it catches fire and starts burning, but wait, who lights hydrogen? who has the ability to light this hydrogen who's power still cannot be trapped by us humans?
answer : gravity
strange na! see, e know that everything is attracting each other, on earth even im attracting my keyboard with same force as it is attracting me, but it never overcomes gravitational force of earth nor i overcome my mass. so we are both at same place as we were, but in space, its different story. in space the only force is gravity but not by another thing, but themselves
like take a big block of mass, some stone, now it is hanging there is space, but due to its mass and Newtons theory it will start attracting things/gasses/dust/smaller stones towards itself, a more practical example is earth and moon.
so when the gasses start to get collect at one place due to attractive force between them, as there mass increases, there force of gravity also increases, increasing the force of gravitation, hence increasing the mass, this continues eternally (some million years, for us this is eternal :P ) then as the mass increases, pressure inside increases as well, which in turn pushes the hydrogen atoms in there closer and closer,
there something happens
the pressure ever rising
the temperature ever rising
hydrogen atoms coming closer and closer
and then suddenly.........
the two hydrogen atoms fuse (hence fusion), and release a massive amount of energy and high temperature
almost like 20 Hiroshima and Nagasaki in single blow, which ignites the rest of hydrogen
and a star is born........somewhere
which will continue to glow eternally somewhere....like our sun, like the nearest star...like those twinkling little things up above the sky......there how everything started
have you ever heard of fourth dimension?
lets talk about it in nxt edition :)
