The Substratum-Creator Of The Cosmos

In today’s modern era there are many who doubt the very existence of God. From an ordinary standpoint there are many proofs which prove God’s existence. Of course, it is another thing that a prejudiced person is hell bent on proving non-existence of God. Else even a mere glimpse of the gigantic rising sun in the morning hour is a very vivid and direct proof of God’s existence. For example there is a doer of every action and an artist behind a painting. Agra’s Taj Mahal (India) is one of the 7 wonders of the world. Every day 20,000 workers were required to build this great monument and as per data given by knowledgeable historians, 6 crore rupees were spent. Totally 18.5 years passed by before Taj Mahal was built completely. The materials used were Rajasthan’s marble, Tibetan sapphire, Sinhal island’s jewels, Punjab’s diamonds and Baghdad’s topaz. A single individual’s intellect was working behind all the minute arrangements to build this historical tomb. His name was Shah Jehan and has today become a very famous historical ruler.

Korea‘s Melolium is the 2nd wonder of the world. The 4 walls of it are 62 hands long and 62 hands wide. Within it there are 36 pillars which are 40 hands tall which are thick at the base and become thinner in the upward direction. On the ladder right from the base to the top region very precious statues made of marble have been installed. This famous shrine was built by the great artist duo Paithis and Matiram. Yet the main intellect which directed them to build this great wonder was their Queen Artimisia.

The Jupiter idol of Olympia was 25 feet high and 20 lakn rupees were spent to construct it. This was the result of an intense heartfelt desire on the part of Athen’s Emperor Paraclis. The Diana temple of Iphisas is the dream of Chandfin that came true. Acharya Sunanda of Pravar Sen Era is the brain behind the 26 caves of Ajanta that had 5 temples and also the 24 Buddhist monastries. The Sikandaria light pillar was built by Sikandar. The Hanging Garden of Babylon was built by the then Babylon ruler. Rome’s Colosius, Pisa’s Leaning Tower, Rhode’s idol, Egyptian Pyramids, the images of Sistine Chapel Pietti, Paris’s Eiffel Tower, American White House, Delhi’s Red Fort etc were all the creation of great minds with pure hearts. Thus any material object of the world can never be the result of self creation and hence a creator is always a part and parcel of any creation.

If such small materials cannot be created without a creator/doer how can we say that this gigantic cosmos with its brilliant sun, stars, planets etc has come into existence without a creator? Night gives solace to tired people, stars give us light, weathers keep coming and going at their appointed hour and so on and so forth. Every creature gets its required food items, wind and water arrangements go on smoothly and thus Mother Nature is on her toes round the clock for the well being of all creatures. If there had been no cosmic intelligence behind world’s creation these innumerous stars and galaxies would have been out to ‘kill’ one another. If we allege that there is no calculation involved in the designing of the cosmos how could we humans predict that at a particular date/time/year solar eclipses, lunar eclipses, winter/summer solstices etc will occur? Such a mastery of cosmic creation is impossible to achieve without a creator who is omniscient, who can hear each and every cosmic sound vibration, who can make such apt cosmic laws and mete out impeccable justice to each and every animate/inanimate object of the cosmos.

Without a controller apt arrangements can never be made. Without a government a country becomes chaotic and anarchic. We can argue that for a short time span things can go on functioning smoothly without a controller or a government. But the fact is that our cosmos has existed for billions and billions of years and hence it becomes obvious that for it to exist for such a gigantic time span, a cosmic intelligence/creator definitely is at work round the clock for its smooth functioning. In many households it is the elderly members who direct household activities by taking apt decisions. A village has a chief who is answerable to the regional chief. The latter takes orders from a collector who in turn takes orders from the states chief. And the final head of a country is a President. In mills and industrial concerns if there were no managers and directors, the entire business goes haywire. Hence just think that if a company can go topsy-turvy without a director/manager how can the infinite cosmos function smoothly without a creator with its cosmic intelligence? Inert objects may possess energy but they certainly cannot have intelligence. Cosmic laws can be made only by a conscious/intelligent principle. Thus we can safely say that God definitely exists.

Many years back an article was published in the National Herald which said: Why do scientists have faith in God’s existence? The scholarly author wrote: Every atom of the material world works on the basis of a well defined cosmic law. Assuming that even a minute deviation from this law takes place, the very existence of this gigantic cosmos will be at stake. A blast lasting for a mere second can set fire to infinite nature and thus this cosmos can come to naught.

The very fact that certain cosmic laws exist proves that a cosmic intelligence exists. Our very existence depends on the sun shining brilliantly in the sky. It sends its rays from a distance of 10 crore, 30 lakh miles and the time taken to do so is 8 seconds. During day time so many means of comfort are gathered that our night passes by undisturbed. In this cycle of day and night even if one day or night is added or subtracted our lives will go haywire. From the sun’s standpoint our planet Earth is as insignificant as a drop in the gigantic ocean. Hence what to say of the importance of the existence of an ant living in the hut of a big snow clad mountain of Siberia? Despite this even this ant lives a life of joy in its own way.

The sun in turn is a tiny star of mighty inter stellar space. In the past a magazine called Readers Digest printed an atlas wherein the solar system was a mere dot and by attaching an arrow to it a message written quite far away from it said: Our solar system does not exist over here. It is like our tear drop entering the mighty ocean and thus losing all its identity. The Regal star is bigger than our sun by 15,000 times. The Antayers star can harbor 3 crore 60 lakh globes of the size of our sun. In June 1967 Graham Berry wrote in Science Today: There exist smaller planets than our Earth in the cosmos and galaxies with gigantic peripheries measuring 5 Kharab miles. Despite this all these move unimpeded in this infinite cosmos. If someone argues that no specific arrangement exists in the cosmos how does he/she explain the fact that all these innumerable stars, planets, meteors etc are not ‘banging’ into one another? Why do they move in a particular sequence without hindering the movement of its neighboring planets, stars etc?

The sun possesses heat of 1 crore 60 lakh degree centigrade. If planet Earth was devoid of its Ionosphere it would have been burnt to ashes by now. Lest the sun moves away even minutely from its normal position not only will our polar regional ice melt and drown our continents but that denizens on earth will get cooked to pulp as in an incinerator because of exposure to massive solar heat exposure. The other extreme reaction that could be faced would be our planet Earth becoming a freezing ball of ice. All this proves that the entire cosmos has been designed intelligently by a cosmic creator. Hence apart from Almighty God who can create it?

Despite this there are many who insist that there is no ‘concrete’ proof of God’s existence. In one of his books Karl Marx says: If any laboratory of the world can give scientific proof of God’s existence only then will I accept it.

DESPITE LACK OF ‘CONCRETE’ PROOF………

Even the very premise of Atheistic Philosophy says that God’s existence cannot be proved. Hence they say that whatever cannot be proved can never exist. But this argument is one sided and incomplete. The belief that ‘whatever cannot be proved scientifically has no existence’ could be true let’s say until 100 years previously because scientific research was yet in its infancy. But today when modern science has taken measured steps in the realms of the ‘invisible’ and ‘unknown’ and has come out with some amazing discoveries it goes without saying that there are many more areas which have yet to be discovered by modern science simply because so far they have not gone in this direction. A day will come when they will go deeper and deeper into the mystery of creation and come out victorious with more discoveries. 

Until the past few decades it was believed that the minutest particle of matter was a molecule and that there was no way to break it up further. Hence in those times the molecule was considered to be the subtlest form of matter. And yet after a few years passed by scientists were able to break up molecules into further smaller units called atom. At that time scientists said that the atom cannot be further broken down. Again history is witness to the fact that the atom too was pierced by later well known physicists. When the atom was further broken down scientists were amazed to note that a great gush of energy manifested. This energy can either be used to fulfill our fuel needs or it can be misused to make let’s say nuclear weapons and heartlessly kill millions of innocent lives.

But even today the atom is not accepted as the subtlest form of matter. In fact modern deep thinking scientists, physicists etc opine rightly that there exists an even more subtle principle in the atom. It is on this very basis that Prof. Richards writes in his book “Thirty Years of Psychic Research”: Fifty years back it was believed that whatever was not proved by material science had no existence. Despite this within the realm of material science such scientific data has been unearthed which says that let alone spiritual principles even the nature of matter has not been understood in totality by modern science. Hence how can one challenge the existence of a subtle conscious substratum of this material world just because modern science fails to prove its existence? We must all realize that spiritual sciences are beyond the ken of material science.

Sir A. S. Edigran elaborates further: A conscious force is at work in inert objects which can be called Prana or vital force. Toda we are unaware of its true nature and function and yet we can from the experiential standpoint say with conviction that everything happening in this material world is certainly not accidental or without the working of an intelligent principle.

Modern science even today is incapable of unearthing the subtlest principle of matter. For example when the atom was broken up a gush of energy emitted from it. And yet even today science has failed to fully understand its true form and nature. For example light is not a material object. A material object exists in a particular place, has some weight and which can be disintegrated. Light has no weight, has no particular place for existence and cannot be further disintegrated. The subtlest form of matter which is subtler than an atom too is akin to light in form and yet there is some strangeness attached to it. The strange thing is that along with it being a wave in form it exists in a certain place too. Modern scientists call this subtle form of atom as ‘quanta’.

What we are trying to say is that with due respect to modern science, it has failed to fully elucidate the subtlest form of matter. Hence how can we use modern science as proof for the existence of a subtle conscious principle which is the substratum of this inert material world? In other words just because modern science fails to prove the existence of a conscious cosmic principle can we deny out rightly the latter’s existence? In the human body the chief centre of consciousness is said to be the brain. Thoughts, thinking and emotions are said to primarily manifest in this region. Despite intense scientific research anatomists and physiologists have not fully understood the mysteries of the all important brain centre. Dr. Mcdougal in his book “Physiological Psychology” says: Even if the anatomical structure of the brain is studied very minutely, yet the question as to how human beings have gone beyond their animalistic behavior so as to become thinking, intellectual beings will remain unanswered. Why are human beings capable of expressing refined emotions unlike their animal counterparts? Thus we will have to accept that a subtle, formless principle exists within human beings. This principle can be called the soul, sensitive consciousness etc.

If at all there is a difference between a living man and a dead body with reference to their bodily chemical content is concerned is that the living man’s body is all the time ‘growing’ and the growth of a dead body comes to a standstill. Many have tried to induce growth in a dead body but all their hard work came to naught. Even today research is conducted in this realm but in a different manner. Today researchers are trying to find a way of inducing consciousness which had left a living body (so as to render it dead) to re-enter the dead body and thus bring it back to life. The great scientist Sir James Jeans in his most widely read book “The Mysterious Universe” writes: Today science is now moving on to the realm of that conscious cosmic principle which is the controller and substratum of this material world. Science yearns to unravel the mystery of what is the nature of this conscious principle without whose existence the existence of our material world is impossible? It is because of the fact that the self regulating mechanism of material objects is so weak that merely on its basis one cannot explain the existence of the untold potential of the power of thought present in the human psyche.

The very fact that this world functions so smoothly, its advancement and amazing potentials of consciousness in the human body all point out to the fact that a divine ‘director’ does exist (whom we call God). Arguments against this observation say that all creatures and objects are nothing but manifestations of matter; apart from matter nothing else exists.

As a counter argument the well known scientist Tendell in his book “Fragments of Science” writes: To say that life emanated from inert atoms like hydrogen, oxygen etc which are devoid of intelligence does not make sense. The reason being that the movement of life’s consciousness is so well managed and well directed everywhere that it cannot be called an ‘accident’ or ‘chance’. The great poetical works of Homer or the unearthing of the mathematical principle of Differential cannot be the result of a dice thrown or a roulette game in a casino.  

The author of “Fragments of Science” writes that inert machine like activities cannot account for manifestation of the acts of seeing, hearing, dreaming, emotions and other sensations. Apart from carrying out ones daily chores whatever man thinks, desires etc and whatever is seen in this external world cannot be the result of various atoms uniting with one another.

As of today in spite of hectic scientific research being conducted all over the world, the mysteries of this material world have not been fully unearthed. Hence how can we use such scientific research to ‘prove’ the existence of a cosmic conscious principle (God)? Thus it is futile and prejudiced to say that God does not exist simply because modern science cannot prove its existence. There was a time in scientific research history when the atom was not yet discovered. Does it mean that the atom did not exist at that point in time? The atom definitely existed in the past and today even if via vain logic one tries to disprove the existence of the atom, the latter will continue to exist. Whether we accept something or not, whether we know something or not yet if something exists it will continue to do so without paying heed to our acceptance etc.

Atlas of Novel Tectonics $25.35 Architects Jesse Reiser and Nanako Umemoto have been generating some of the most provocative thinking in the field for nearly twenty years. With "Atlas of Novel Tectonics," Reiser+Umemoto hone in on the many facets of architecture and illuminate their theories with great thought and simplicity. The "Atlas" is organized as an accumulation of short chapters that address the workings of matter and force, material science, the lessons of art and architectural history, and the influence of architecture on culture (and vice versa). Reiser+Umemoto see architectural design as a series of problem situations, and each chapter is an argument devoted to a specific condition or case. Influenced by a wide range of fields and phenomena Brillat-Savarin’s classic "The Physiology of Taste" is one of their primary models the authors provide a cross-section of thinking and inspiration. The result is both an elucidation of the concepts that guide Reiser+Umemoto through their own design process and a series of meditations on topics that have formed their own sense as architects. "Atlas of Novel Tectonics" offers an entirely fresh perspective on subjects that are generally taken for granted, and does so with a welcome punch and energy.

Collisions and Collaboration: The Organization of Learning in the Atlas Experiment at the Lhc $48.51 After twenty-five years of preparation, the Large Hadron Collider at CERN, Geneva, is finally running its intensive scientific experiments into high-energy particle physics. These experiments, which have so captured the public’s imagination, take the world of physics to a new energy level, the terascale, at which elementary particles are accelerated to one millionth of a percent of the speed of light and made to smash into each other with a combined energy of around fourteen trillion electron-volts. What new world opens up at the terascale? No one really knows, but the confident expectation is that radically new phenomena will come into view. The kind of "big science" being pursued at CERN, however, is becoming ever more uncertain and costly. Do the anticipated benefits justify the efforts and the costs? This book aims to give a broad organizational and strategic understanding of the nature of "big science" by analyzing one of the major experiments that uses the Large Hadron Collider, the ATLAS Collaboration. It examines such issues as: the flow of "interlaced" knowledge between specialist teams; the intra- and inter-organizational dynamics of "big science"; the new knowledge capital being created for the workings of the experiment by individual researchers, suppliers, and e-science and ICTs; the leadership implications of a collaboration of nearly three thousand members; and the benefits for the wider societal setting. This book aims to examine how, in the face of high levels of uncertainty and risk, ambitious scientific aims can be achieved by complex organizational networks characterized by cultural diversity, informality, and trust–and where "big science" can head next.

They may be native plants carefully selected to provide larger blooms or a greater color range, exotic species with origins in far-distant lands, or cultivars which have been painstakingly bred to conform to an ideal of shape and form. The Gardener’s Atlas explores the histories of many of the world’s most popular cultivated plants and reveals how and where they grew in the wild. It relates extraordinary and uplifting tales of their discovery in some of the remotest regions on earth — tales of determination and perseverance, of barter and exchange, and of international friendship struck up between enthusiastic horticulturists from the 1500s onward. There are insights into how plants that are now simply decorative were once used for medicinal or cosmetic purposes, for food or ritual, and into how they earned their common or Latin names. This is a book which cannot fail to enrich your gardening experience.

From Cape Cod to the Bay of Fundy: An Environmental Atlas Fo the Gulf of Maine $7.04 Winner in the category of Geography and Earth Science in the 1995 Professional/Scholarly Publishing Annual Awards Competition presented by the Association of American Publishers, Inc. Images of the earth’s surface have been around for years, but it is only recently that scientists have begun to take advantage of new data generated by the explosion of remote sensing equipment to address a variety of technical questions in many different fields. This" Atlas "presents breathtaking full-color images of the region to reveal and interpret environmental patterns and problems. The illustrations are interwoven with commentary on the area’s ecology, geology, and oceanography, giving readers an understanding of the link between their own backyard and the interdependent set of systems that make up one of the most distinctive regions on earth. The Gulf of Maine is an almost-enclosed sea bounded by an international watershed; shaped by volcanoes, glaciation, and other geologic forces; rich in marine resources; diverse in terrestrial systems; occupied by indigenous peoples for nearly 10,000 years; and now used intensively by fishermen, foresters, and tourists. A different aspect of this multi-faceted region is discussed in each chapter. Yet it is the stunning satellite images and aerial photographs that set the "Atlas "apart. With pinpoint clarity, the images demonstrate how these increasingly powerful sensing tools may be utilized to view and interpret elements of the natural environment and ultimately, to help rectify problems. In the carefully coordinated narrative essays, authors from across the region address issues raised by the images, for example: how much clear cutting is going on and what its effects are on other parts of the ecosystem; how well marine fisheries are managing to prevent overfishing; the effect of pollutant loadings in nearshore estuaries; and how seaweeds contribute to the lobster harvest.

A Continent Revealed: The European Geotraverse, Structure and Dynamic Evolution (European Science Founcation) $35.36 The continent of Europe has a complex geological history of successive tectonic events. Over several thousand million years these have formed the present day configuration of major tectonic provinces. A Continent Revealed unravels this history by presenting and interpreting the results of the European Geotraverse (EGT) – a unique study of the continent of Europe and the first comprehensive cross section of the continental lithosphere. An illustrated book and an atlas of data have been assembled by key workers in the EGT project to make known the wealth of information yielded by the ten year project. Seismic, gravity, magnetic, electrical, geothermal and other geophysical and geological data, presented as separate maps and as data files on CD-ROM, have revealed the nature of the deep interior of the continent and the variation in character from one tectonic province to another. The integration of the results and interpretation of the different characters has given new insights into the mechanisms of continental evolution and Europe’s geodynamics. From this perspective it is evident that understanding geological processes demands a multidisciplinary approach and that all processes, be they sedimentary, metamorphic or igneous, on every scale, involve the whole lithosphere.

Objectivity $25.27 Choice Outstanding Academic Title, 2008. Objectivity has a history, and it is full of surprises. In "Objectivity, " Lorraine Daston and Peter Galison chart the emergence of objectivity in the mid-nineteenth-century sciences–and show how the concept differs from its alternatives, truth-to-nature and trained judgment. This is a story of lofty epistemic ideals fused with workaday practices in the making of scientific images. From the eighteenth through the early twenty-first centuries, the images that reveal the deepest commitments of the empirical sciences–from anatomy to crystallography–are those featured in scientific atlases, the compendia that teach practitioners what is worth looking at and how to look at it. Galison and Daston use atlas images to uncover a hidden history of scientific objectivity and its rivals. Whether an atlas maker idealizes an image to capture the essentials in the name of truth-to-nature or refuses to erase even the most incidental detail in the name of objectivity or highlights patterns in the name of trained judgment is a decision enforced by an ethos as well as by an epistemology. As Daston and Galison argue, atlases shape the subjects as well as the objects of science. To pursue objectivity–or truth-to-nature or trained judgment–is simultaneously to cultivate a distinctive scientific self wherein knowing and knower converge. Moreover, the very point at which they visibly converge is in the very act of seeing not as a separate individual but as a member of a particular scientific community. Embedded in the atlas image, therefore, are the traces of consequential choices about knowledge, persona, and collective sight. "Objectivity" is a book addressed to anyone interested in the elusive and crucial notion of objectivity–and in what it means to peer into the world scientifically.

Graphic Discovery: A Trout in the Milk and Other Visual Adventures $33.94 Good graphs make complex problems clear. From the weather forecast to the Dow Jones average, graphs are so ubiquitous today that it is hard to imagine a world without them. Yet they are a modern invention. This book is the first to comprehensively plot humankind’s fascinating efforts to visualize data, from a key seventeenth-century precursor–England’s plague-driven initiative to register vital statistics–right up to the latest advances. In a highly readable, richly illustrated story of invention and inventor that mixes science and politics, intrigue and scandal, revolution and shopping, Howard Wainer validates Thoreau’s observation that circumstantial evidence can be quite convincing, as when you find a trout in the milk. The story really begins with the eighteenth-century origins of the art, logic, and methods of data display, which emerged, full-grown, in William Playfair’s landmark 1786 trade atlas of England and Wales. The remarkable Scot singlehandedly popularized the atheoretical plotting of data to reveal suggestive patterns–an achievement that foretold the graphic explosion of the nineteenth century, with atlases published across the observational sciences as the language of science moved from words to pictures. Next come succinct chapters illustrating the uses and abuses of this marvelous invention more recently, from a murder trial in Connecticut to the Vietnam War’s effect on college admissions. Finally Wainer examines the great twentieth-century polymath John Wilder Tukey’s vision of future graphic displays and the resultant methods–methods poised to help us make sense of the torrent of data in our information-laden world.

Many Faces, Many Microbes: Personal Reflections in Microbiology $6.44 Attempting to demystify science by revealing the human faces of leading scientists, Many Faces — Many Microbes is a continuation of the story of the beginnings of microbiology as told by Paul de Kruif in his 1926 book Microbe Hunters.

The contributors, leading figures in microbiology, are truly reflective of today’s society, men and women of all ages and backgrounds. Together they are united by an interest in the acquisition and application of knowledge about microbes and how they affect our lives. Fascinating reading for scientists and non-scientists alike, Many Faces-Many Microbes is a tale to entice a new generation of microbiologists to seek the excitement of exploring the unseen world.

The Environment in Asia Pacific Harbours [With CDROM] $122.88 Eric Wolanski’s book has received a UN award for excellence. It received the award as being exceptional in the UN Oceans Atlas Worldwide, urbanization has already reached unprecedented levels in the estuarine and coastal zone. This is particularly the case in the Asia Pacific region where mega-cities and mega-harbours have developed and are still growing. As a result environmental degradation is significant and growing. This book details how science can provide solutions so that economic and social developments can be ecologically sustainable. This book demonstrates the different solutions and pitfalls, successes and failures in a large number of ports and harbours in the Asia Pacific Region, and this will be based on science and aimed at management. Twelve sites are discussed in detail, integrating physics and biology. These are Tokyo Bay, the Pearl Estuary, Hong Kong, Shanghai and the Yangtze delta, Klang, Manila Bay, Jakarta Bay, Pearl Harbour, Ho Chi Minh City and the new harbour on the Thi Vai River, Bangkok and coastal waters of the upper Gulf of Thailand, Singapore and Darwin. This is the shoreline of about 50 million people and the coastal waters of about 500 million people. The social, economic and environmental problems are pressing and call for science-based solutions that are addressed by this challenging book. Thirty internationally recognised, prominent scientists and engineers in universities and research centres in all these cities contributed the chapters in this book. The dominant scientific approach that will be demonstrated is understanding and quantifying how the impacted estuarine and coastal waters work by focusing on the links between physical andbiological processes, and between science and engineering. In turn these are linked to economic and social issues. The book highlights the individual experiences at these different sites, with many similarities and dissimilarities brought upon by different scientific and management approaches, governance and socio-economic issues and different levels of development. This advancement in science was made possible by the local experts a" who are actually also the authors of the chapters. These experts provide hints of long-term solutions to enable socio-economic developments while maintaining, or restoring, the vital ecosystem services provided by the estuarine and coastal waters, following the principles of the UNESCO ecohydrology programme. The lessons from this book about the Asia Pacific Region find applications worldwide wherever coastal urbanization and the growth of mega-harbours occur. The chapters are peer-reviewed to ensure highest quality science.

Anthem (Reissue $12.43 Written with all the power and conviction that made THE FOUNTAINHEAD and ATLAS SHRUGGED classics of American letters, Ayn Rand’s ANTHEM is a hymn to man’s independent spirit and to the highest word in the human language — the word "Ego." ANTHEM tells the story of a man who rediscovers individualism and his own "I" It is a world of absolute collectivization, a world where sightless, joyless, selfless men exist for the sake of serving the State; where their work, their food, and their mating are prescribed to them by order of the Collective’s rulers in the name of society’s welfare. It is a world which lost all the achievements of science and civilization when it lost its root, the independent mind, and reverted to primitive savagery a world where language contains no singular pronouns, where the "We" has replaced the "I," and where men are put to death for the crime of discovering and speaking the "unspeakable word." ANTHEM presents not merely a frightening projection of existing trends, but, more importantly, a positive answer to those trends and a weapon against them, a key to the world’s moral crisis and to a new morality of individualism — a morality that, if accepted today, will save us from a future such as the one presented in this story.
