| TRY TO UNDERSTAND WHERE WE STAND. (Written by Ashok Raina) | | | | Whenever we talk about today's scientific and modern age, I can't help but laugh inwardly. Although we have undoubtedly mastered living in an era we couldn't have even imagined, we have still strayed far from the fundamental principles of basic life.
In my opinion, these things were, and still are, far more valuable than what we gain from scientific education. Today, we are surrounded by numerous diseases for which we ourselves are responsible.
If we truly become familiar with the world of birds, consider it a sign that we have firmly resolved to learn something new. Although baby birds learn everything from their parents in a very short time and become capable of flying in the sky, they also acquire the knowledge to fight all kinds of diseases. We generally overlook their resilience and confidence, and that is why we are still far from acquiring basic education and have completely failed in maintaining environmental science. If we too could survive solely on oxygen and sunlight, like the solar system, it would mean that we have understood and closely observed the forms and laws of nature, and I believe we can easily do this. Even an earthworm knows the secrets of living underground very well.
We have created diseases for ourselves and built huge hospitals. Instead of recognizing natural remedies, we have become adept at manufacturing artificial antibiotics. In this modern age, while claiming to be making gradual progress in new educational methods, we have also miserably succeeded in bringing fake medicines, adulterated ghee, and contaminated food and drinks into the markets.
Not only that, we have expanded and utilized the scope of science to create recycling systems and machines. Instead of burning old clothes, we are recycling them, making them colorful and attractive again, and then selling them in the markets. The hazardous steps involved in the recycling process can only be understood by asking the laborers who work in these industries. I am saddened that such education is not being provided in the field of environmental science, and that the truth is being concealed to prevent a number of new diseases in time.
Most alarmingly, these industries are not only severely polluting and damaging the environment but are also endangering the health of thousands of laborers who are suffering from numerous diseases and are completely broken by the system. Furthermore, countless new diseases are emerging in society, making them very difficult to treat. It is also important for us to know that recycled, dyed clothes have a very short lifespan, just like clothes whose colors fade quickly.
Despite us creating such a situation, the fact that these birds manage to survive without medication is truly remarkable, even though they occasionally quench their thirst with chemically contaminated water.
In this scientific age, we have gained some conveniences, but they are not proving as beneficial as they should be. This is because, along with these advancements, we have also created weapons of mass destruction such as nuclear bombs, guns, and sharp weapons, forcing people to live in such a dangerous environment. We have put the entire planet at risk with these weapons and are bent on destroying humanity.
If we talk about butterflies, bumblebees, and honeybees, which have very short lifespans, we still haven't been able to fully understand their remarkable abilities. The question arises: why have we deliberately overlooked them? Yet, we could learn so much from them. After disappearing during the autumn and winter months, they reappear in the spring, skillfully extracting nectar from flowers, demonstrating a profound understanding of the basis of their survival and heights of beautiful life.
If we had focused on environmental science in our scientific studies and closely observed and understood the laws of nature, we could have lived our lives beautifully. However, despite creating new things in this scientific age, we are still unable to find the true meaning of life.
Understanding my responsibilities, I have tried to closely observe and learn from you the art of living, try to understand where we stand.
