THE VISION OF UNIVERSE– AS AN INTERPLAY OF ARRANGEMENTS BETWEEN ATOMS – WITH A TINGE OF BUDDHISM

Our Cosmos is quintessentially a presentation of various combinations of arrangements of atoms and molecules, varying over time and space ranging up to the units of billions of years (time) and Light Years (Space), creating THE GREAT PLAY, with an inherent design and AN INTELLIGENCE, which forms the basis of THE ULTIMATE KNOWLEDGE, for the human mind, beyond any limitations, boundaries and restrictions of narrow-minded and incomprehensive lines of thinking.

All matter is made up of the most fundamental particles – atoms and molecules, each atom in turn is constituted of positively charged protons, negatively charged electrons and neutral neutrons. If we analyze, in this light, the theories of BIG BANG and THE PULSATING UNIVERSE, we realize that the entire cosmic cycle beginning from the birth of universe, in a BIG BIG EXPLOSION, called THE BIG BANG and in a cycle of billions of years, ending up in an EQUALLY MASSIVE IMPLOSION, namely THE BIG CRUNCH, is but a GREAT SUPER PLAY OF INTERACTION BETWEEN ATOMS AND MOLECULES. All that is, can be seen, felt or experienced is fundamentally composed of smallest particles called the atoms. All the variations we see around us is because atoms have different arrangements of electrons, etc and thus exhibit different properties, and when they combine differently in different places and different situations, they create all the different elements, compounds, mixtures, in other words they create things, beings, worlds and our entire lovely Universe.  

The living beings and ultimately The Human Being have come out of this Matter-ial Pool. They are in some sense the end product of the churning process carried out by nature, on this planet, which has taken billions of years. Each atom exhibits certain properties. This is by virtue of it’s electronic configuration, i.e the number of electrons the atom has in it’s electronic orbits. All the different things in the universe, or for the sake of simplicity, let us say on Earth, say for example, wind, water, coal, etc are a collection of atoms (Molecules) which exhibit similar characteristics and thus provide the unique characteristics to the respective element. In case of human beings and other animals and plants, they are composed of structural and functional units called cells, which in turn are composed of numerous atoms.

THE PHILOSOPHICAL BASIS     

Man is the most unique and crucial element/being/factor on this planet and in the entire known cosmos. He is composed of cells, which are but collection of certain atoms of certain types, differenciated in their properties, on the basis of differences in the structures they make up. But Man is endowed with the Highest Level of consciousness and his potential is even higher, is evident from the ‘Divine Powers’ exhibited by the Greatest of Men like Buddha, Krishna, Christ and Mohammad. When the atoms combine in unique situations and form a whole, the result is Human Being. The Highest of Consciousness is produced by the Most Appropriate combination of atoms, i.e. in the form of Human Being. Each atom exhibits certain level of consciousness, but this is at the most primitive stage. When they combine in ordinary situations, they form inanimate objects, who are no more conscious than these most primitive particles. But when they combine in special and most special ways, the result is a conscious animal or a highly intelligent Human Being respectively. Thus the level of Consciousness is a result of the manner of combination and interaction between atoms and cells.

THE INTELLIGENT DESIGN

Just as it would be sacriscientifical to question the Einstein’s Basic Equation relating Matter and Energy, their interchangeability, etc. so it would be grossly unscientific to argue that the entire cosmos goes on without any underlying basis, the Force that creates order, that whom The Vedantists describe as Neti Neti (Neither This, Neither This), and whom the Jains & Buddhists call the Soul and the Order and Who is known in Christianity and Islam as the Founder Father of the Universe, the Creator and it’s absolute ruler. That design governs the order in the universe. The Human Factors – Karma, Emotions, Sense Perceptions, intelligence, body consciousness are but the functions of the Consciousness created by the the combinations of atoms. To me, it is not soul or some unchanging entity that survives death and is reborn again, rather it is these Human Factors -  Karma, Emotions, Sense Perceptions, intelligence, body consciousness that take rebirth. One who knows one’s real identity and this Entire Process fully well, is freed from Rebirth. He goes in Shunya/The Zero/Void/Nothingness and enjoys eternity.
