THINGS THAT SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED TO BE ABSURD ANYMORE
Can you name the most recent examples of any such things that initially used to be thought to be absurd by science but now it does not think them to be absurd?
Is it not true that till the year 1933 when the Swiss astrophysicist Fritz Zwicky found out that something known as “Dark Matter” is supposed to exist, while studying galaxy clusters at Caltech even though it was not possible to prove its existence physically; science used to consider the existence of any such things for which it may not be possible to prove their existence practically — to be absurd?
The discovery of Dark Matter was followed by the discovery of another thing of the same type, known as “Dark Energy”, in the late 1990s.
But it is quite funny that science has absorbed the discovery of even these two things in the first three domains of things, though these things, rightly speaking, belong to the fourth domain of the following diagram.
As we know, the existence of both of these things can’t be practically demonstrated.
Their existence has been established only theoretically by reasoning out that unless we ASSUME that some things of these types also exist in the universe, the following phenomena can’t be explained.
(i) Why is the universe expanding at a much faster rate now than the rate at which it was expanding a few billion years back?
(ii) Why do the stars located closer to the center of our galaxy travel at more or less same speed as the stars closer to the periphery of the galaxy?
BUT THE FACT IS — THESE TWO THINGS ARE NOT THE ONLY THINGS OF THE FOURTH DOMAIN.
In the following book, published by me last year through Amazon.com and Pothi.com, I have discussed several topics that also fall within the same domain as Dark Matter and Dark Energy.
In this book, I referred to certain such entities that may be treated as “superhuman entities” because they ought to have been thousands of times more knowledgeable and capable than the human scientists and engineers.
Though the human species are such species which could have survived on the type of the planet the Earth happens to be by virtue of the extent of the gravitational pull it exerts on us, the specific composition of the air that exists on the Earth, the envelope of ozone gas that surrounds our planet, the types of vegetables and fruits etcetera that grow over it and the quantity of the water available on it.
We can’t rule out the possibility of the existence of some such planets of the universe also that may not have exactly of the same type of conditions that exist on our planet on which — some such people may have been living who should have been thousands times more intelligent and capable than us, who may have been able to arrive the Earth to create such superhuman entities which may have been able to develop even so complex and elaborate information-systems as have been described by me in this book.
Though it may not be possible to find out, these entities may have been even some lifeless type of AI-robots of the same type as the AI-robots we have been able to produce but much more capable than the type of robots, we have been able to manufacture.
Although we may only guess, they may have created the type of “superhuman entities” I have described in the first part of this book if these AI-robots may have been thousands of times more knowledgeable and capable than the human scientists and engineers.
By the same logic, it is also possible that only such AI-robots may have created even the entities known as “souls” that control our subconscious mind.
The second part of this book justifies their existence.
However, in this context, I would like to draw your attention to the following pair of Hindi words to justify the existence of even the entity known as “GOD” which could have got evolved of its own and should have known the techniques of creating every type of thing from nothing.
“ATMA” AND “PARAMATMA”
Though “Souls” are known as “Atma” in Hindi; “God” is known as “Paramatma” in Hindi — which translates into “Supreme Soul”.
I doubt if any language other than Hindi uses a word of the type of entity known as “Paramatma” in Hindi.
IF YOU CARE TO KNOW WHY HALF OF THE WORLD DOES NOT KNOW WHETHER ANY ENTITY KNOWN AS GOD MAY HAVE EXISTED OR MAY BE STILL EXISTING, THE REASON IS HIDDEN BEHIND THE FACT THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE SUCH A PAIR OF WORDS AS THE HINDI WORDS “ATMA” AND “PARAMATMA” IN THEIR DICTIONARIES.
I support such a view through the concept of “INTELLECTUAL INERTIA”.
THE CONCEPT OF “INTELLECTUAL INERTIA”
We may use this pair of words to refer to the type of inertia due to which the members of the International Society of Mathematicians took more than two hundred years to give recognition to the following research of the polymath Girolamo Cardano (Sept 24, 1501 — Sept 21, 1576).
Though he was the first person who told the world in the year 1545 that it was wrong to think that negative numbers may have only imaginary square roots by making the world aware of the fact that the roots of the equation “x² — 10x + 40 = 0” incorporate the square root of a negative number “–15”. (vide Chapter Thirteen of this book)
Although he was right in his earnest — the way he presented this idea, it gave an impression as if the roots of only this particular equation incorporate roots of a negative number though the fact is the roots of all equations may have the square roots of negative numbers if the value of their discriminant “b2–4ac” may be negative.
For instance, take the case of the equation “x2–10x + 80 = 0”.
Since the value of its “b2–4ac” is negative because the value of its “b2” is “100” and the value of its “4ac” is “320”, its roots incorporate the square root of “–55” which is a negative number — which implies that we may have thousands of such equations, the roots of which may incorporate square root of some negative number or another.
You may be wondering, “What is the relevance of this example?”.
THE RELEVANCE OF THIS EXAMPLE
Its relevance is hidden behind the fact that it throws light on the INTELECTUAL INERTIA of the scientific community to acknowledge the existence of the souls, the types of superhuman entities (described by me in the above book) related to Genetics and the type of entity described by me as “God”.
THE LOGIC BASED ON WHICH WE MAY JUSTIFY THE TYPE OF ENTITY DESCRIBED BY ME AS “GOD” ABOVE.
Is it not true that only the following snag has been found in the theory of the Big Bang?
(i) If what is known as “Primordial Soup” should have come into existence immediately after the Big Bang, how could it have come into existence since we believe that nothing should have existed anywhere before the Big Bang should have occurred?
(ii) Who should have triggered the Big Bang?
But because the universe has come into existence, we should admit that the following type of entity alone could have made it possible.
IT COULD HAVE BEEN MADE POSSIBLE ONLY BY SOME SUCH ENTITY THAT COULD HAVE GOT EVOLVED OF ITS OWN AND SHOULD HAVE KNOWN THE TECHNIQUES OF CREATING EVERY TYPE OF THING FROM NOTHING.
If so, what is wrong in calling such an entity “God” though it may be proved to be true only theoretically?
BUT WHAT IS WRONG IF A NEW BRANCH OF SCIENCE IS CREATED TO COVER ALL SUCH ENTITIES OF THE FOURTH DOMAIN?
Of course, science shall have to hunt for some suitable name of this branch.
Likewise, we may cover such things as “All of us are travelling toward Centaurus constellation at an astronomical speed as high as 1,269,040 kilometers per hour” under the Third Domain, since we may only mathematically calculate this speed.[1]
