Past-Present-Future Final Part

Past-Present-Future Part VI                                                                                     
This and many similar questions come to human mind. Humans from all over the globe are still pondering over such questions.  Many great people have put forward answers to such queries. But still no material scientific explanation is available. It may be possible that at some point of time, science will be able to answer such queries.
Genetic researches have shown that genetic coding has a relationship with the past generation of the offspring. The researches will continue till the time a suitable answer to the relationship of Past-Present-Future is found and accepted by all humans. This will help understand the mysteries of nature.

Past Present Future Part - V

Past Present Future Part - V
(Continued from Part - IV)

The result of imagination is hypothesis. When this hypothesis is found to be correct and universally applied and accepted, it becomes a universal law. There are many universal laws, known to mankind. These universal laws are applied to many similar situations and have been found to be correct. One such law is “there is struggle for existence and there is survival of the fittest.” This survival refers to the existence in the present state or time. This struggle can be of ideas or entities. Humans argue on many concepts, ideologies or view points. But only those survive that are fittest. Similarly only they survive who are physically (physical as well as monitory), mentally and spiritually fit. Does that mean that your past determines your future? Or is it that your present determines your future? Does your past determine your present and thus the future? Survival means existence. Existence is present.

The event of struggle is always in present time .You may have a glorious past, but that does not matter much. What matters is that you should be fittest at the time of struggle, i.e. present. Similarly if you were not fittest in the past but you become fittest by your efforts in the present, you are bound to survive. But again the time during which you were preparing for your fitness becomes a matter of past when you are facing the struggle. Thus it is always past that determines your present survival. But this sometimes is not true as there are certain factors that are not known to us and results are modified because we were not aware of them.
Does it mean that there are certain predetermined factors in the future that influence our lives? This is called Destiny. Destiny relates to future. Does that mean that our life, death and actions are predetermined and controlled not by us but by some power that belongs to future for us? Are we not concluding that there is some power known as almighty or God or supernatural power that controls our lives? This is something that needs to be examined and analyzed thoroughly, before reaching any conclusion. I shall neither accept it nor reject it, without proper examination. I shall discuss it at the appropriate time.

Past Present Future - Part IV

(Continued from Part - III) 
                                                                                                     
Even this does not seem to be logical. If we take this as cyclical, then recycling is a process. Take the example of recycling plastic. There is a process by which the plastic waste has to go through before it is again converted into granules. This recycling is a whole process and not just a physical conversion. Could it be that what is true for non living plastic is also true for living forms of matter?

 We know that reproduction is an important phenomenon of nature. In this process the “like produces like”. The humans observed that after the formation of living objects on this planet, reproduction of living beings, whether animals or plants, was started. Before conception in sexual reproduction and starting of asexual reproduction, the progeny is future. Once the progeny formation starts it becomes present. When parents go from living to non living form it becomes past. The formation of life is conversion of non living matter into living matter. Once the life is finished the life forming organic matter is converted into no life giving organic matter. Thus the life that took its origin from future, came into existence as present and lastly becomes a thing of past. When life becomes past, the non life becomes present. If there is a cycle, Future-Present-Past, and then past should again become future, from future to present, then past and so on in a cyclical manner. But this is not what is being observed. Can we conclude thus that if there is some process known to mankind by which this non life matter could be recycled back to life matter, then the dead can be revived? In that case the human will become immortal.

This point we shall discuss later…

Past Present Future - Part III

(Continued from Part - II)

Thus it is apparently a linear phenomenon. If we take it as correct, then we have to speculate whether this is a static phenomenon or else it is dynamic. If we take this sequence of past, present and future, in a linear fashion, it amounts to saying that origin of future is from nowhere and once imagination, activity or entity has taken its origin from future whose origin is from nowhere, once it is in the preview of past it is not existing after that in any form, whether material or otherwise. But this is contrary to the inferences of the modern research. The universal laws are based on logical inferences of the researches undertaken by the best of minds present on this globe, in that era. Most of our actions are based on the experiences of the past. We base our future activities on the basis of the past experiences of self or others.
To make my point more clear I will like to exemplify it. I am a physician. I diagnose a disease on the basis of the past inferences of eminent scientists. Thus my line of treatment will be based on the past experiences of my ancestors. So my future course of action will be based on the past. Thus if were to infer that future has some connectivity to the past.
We know that matter and energy are interrelated. Matter is converted into energy and energy into matter. Similarly energy is dissipated and not destroyed. Thus does it not prove that it is a cyclical phenomenon and not a linear phenomenon? Thus can we say that future is connected to past in some form or other and past is connected to future, similarly?

Past Present Future - Part II

(Continued from Part - I)
The British calendar or the English calendar, as many people call it, is based on the movement of the sun. Today we know that the sun does not move, instead it is the earth that revolves around the sun.                                                                      
But the calculation of time is based on the past belief, though erroneous. The facts that were agreed upon by the majority of the civil society at that time have proven to be far from reality by the present technological interpretations. Thus the concepts, faiths, beliefs that were recognized as truth in the past, no longer prevail in the present times. But the present has not rejected all the findings of the past. Many of them are still practiced and preached in the present society.
There is a very thin line of differentiation amongst the positions of time, viz. Past-Present and future. It is so thin that as I am writing these words, the word that I was wanting to write was in the future only till the time it was in my mind. But the moment it is in the present time only till the time it is being written on the paper. The moment it is printed or written it becomes a content of past. There is a  very thin demarcation amongst these three phases of time. In terms of imagination by the human mind, it is in the future time only till when you have not imagined it. But the fraction of a moment in which it is being imagined it comes to the present. The moment the imagination is complete, it becomes a part of the past.

Past Present Future - Part I

Past Present Future
These terms are in relation to time. The relationship can be true for
  • Events
  • Concepts
  • Thoughts
  • Entities
  • Non entities
  • And other related matters not mentioned here
  1. Past:-  What has been spent, or that what has happened.
  2. Present:- What is happening currently.
  3. Future:- What that will happen just after the present is finished.
These facts we all know. Some intellectuals may or may not agree with me in precision or totality. I regard them and request to let me proceed further. I shall try to be honest in words and hope that the purpose of my writing is justified.
Since the time of first meeting of civilized world or the first step towards the need of formation of civil society, the humans are exploring the events relating to first step towards formation of universe.
 Now, this is a matter of pure speculation, as to when it was that there was first time, when there was a common consensus upon counting the time and later the formation of calendar. Based on our knowledge of the history of the several civil societies inhabiting the different parts of the globe we can speculate that there is no doubt that there were divergent systems adopted by different societies. We can also speculate that due to slow means of communication, there was no common consensus on a universal method. But the first calendar that is now universally acknowledged is in relation to the birth of Christ.
This was a turning point in the history. Now we are following this system. The advantage of this is that we can universally share our thoughts with different nations. This has helped in many ways. The past present and future events can be calculated and communicated to a larger section of society in a more convenient manner.

Simple Kidney Cysts

Simple Kidney Cysts
A cyst is a closed pocket or pouch of tissue that can form anywhere in the body. Cysts can be filled with air or fluid. Cysts that form on the kidneys usually contain fluid. One or more cysts may develop on small tubes in the kidneys. The simple kidney cyst is different from the cysts that develop when a person has polycystic kidney disease, which is a genetic disease. Although its cause is not fully understood, the simple cyst is not an inherited condition. Simple kidney cysts become more common as people age. Nearly 30 percent of people over the age of 70 have at least one simple kidney cyst.
Most often, simple cysts do not cause symptoms or harm the kidney. In some cases, however, pain can occur when cysts enlarge and press on other organs. Sometimes cysts become infected or suddenly start to bleed. Less often the cysts impair kidney function. People with simple cysts are often found to have high blood pressure, although the cause-and-effect relationship is not well understood.
Kidney cysts are found by taking pictures of the kidneys using computerized tomography (CT) scans and ultrasonography. When simple cysts are found but no complications are present, no treatment is needed.
If cysts cause symptoms, treatment may be needed. One procedure involves puncturing the cyst using a long needle inserted through the skin. The doctor uses ultrasonography to guide the needle to the cyst. The cyst is drained and then filled with a solution containing alcohol to make the tissue harder.
If the cyst is large, surgery may be needed. Most procedures can be performed using a laparoscope, which allows for a smaller incision and quicker recovery. The surgeon drains the cyst then removes or burns away its outer tissue. Most patients stay in the hospital 1 or 2 days.

Anna movement in India

It has been a practice since independance of India, that from offering tea in lieu of favours done to somebody, it has come to offering some money. In earlier days people used to make the offerings out of their own free will. This was a part of social courtsey. But now it has become customary, rather mendatory to offer money.
Anna Hazare, the veteran activist is observing this and similar malpractices in the society for a long time. He was very well aware that the common man is suffering due to this. He formed a team of like minded and wise people like Mr. Kejriwal,Ms. Kiran Bedi, Renowned advocates The Bhushans, both father and son. Annaji started a social movement.
He is a true follower of Gandhiji. He does not have any taint on his image. He knows very well that in order to achieve a great objective the path of Ahimsa is the only path to tread on. Nobody had imagined that this movement will attract the entire India. This reflects that the nation is terribly anguished by currupt practices all over the country. More so the recent revelatios of alleged misuse of a huge amount of public money by certain politicians, added fuel to the fire of rage.

Annaji is on fast. Nobody could imagine that this movement would gather such an overwhelming responce. It is rather astonishing to see that the entire movement is non violent.The forces that are resisting the Jan loke Pal Bill, should realise that it is the peoples mendate. Sooner or later the bill will have to be introduced. The Anna team knows that mere introduction of the bill is not going be enough. Its implementation is eqally important.
The bills will not be effective unless the people enforce it in their day to day practice.Anna's fast is crossing the eight day. His urine and blood are showing ketone bodies.This is alrming situation. May good sense prevail. The Govt. will have to take concrete and sincere efforts to deal with the situation speedily and effectively,lest it is too late and people's movement take an ugly turn.
I prey for Anna's long life.

Thought of the day


Beauty is beauty only when it is appreciated,
   
Knowledge is knowledge when it is useful for self and shared,

Wisdom is wisdom when it is used wisely,

Poverty is a gift from one rich to several.
