A Case against Scientific Dogmatism

No thinker deserves the name of thinker unless he or she is on journey of himself or herself. Every outward journey, which is moving on under the romanticization of science, would cease without a leap of self-realization and self-fulfillment. Reality is not a formula which could be encompassed through quantification. The truest wisdom lies underneath the psyche; why do we think if we think like this or that way? Why are we conditioned than naturalized by own volition and will? Carl Gustav Jung gave us some fresh perspectives to think beyond the dichotomy of phenomenon and noumenon; to think and rationalize are the art of a  scientific magician; to know is the task of impossible-possibility. Our myth and culture do tell us about the history of human- consciousness. The modern science is a only phenomenon which could be trusted for its credibility, is a stimulational thesis which is no more than a "leap of faith". Mythology, if taken seriously could tell us more than what science has offered in the history of human-sciences. I haven't witnessed a scientist who can know himself with certainty! Modern science is a robotic science which has already dehumanised humans' psyche through rational choices' experimentations. People around us are quarrelling for nothingness. The power, prestige, material resources are elevated to the idea of sublime and supreme. As if nothing is really more important than mere animal survival. Humans deserve more than that; more than animalistic passions and greedy commitments. You fight for something trivial you get reduced to that existence. If you love wisdom you will definitely hesitate to commit your life for vices, anger, greed, and thrust for superficial ego. The true dignity requires to know yourself; to inquire about the miraculous existence of being. Isn't beautiful to feel what is around us? Isn't it wonderful to be in on the planet Earth which is offering us a wonderful journey? Killing adventure for the sake of fictional amusement is what our science has done to us. We need to wander through imagination of our minds which could transcend beyond thought and experimentation. That's how we can have journey of our own!

Imagination

Student: I want to excel in my life. Over the years, my graph of success is achieving a new height. I am doing hard work to become one of the smartest and richest persons on the Earth. Teacher: Wonderful! Who is  achiever and what is achieved? Student: I am the achiever. My name and fame are shining day by day.  Teacher: Who is this ‘I’? What is the material by which it is produced? Student: I is the ego which is the agent achieving successes and facing failures. Teacher: Whether ego is real or imaginary? Student: It is made of name, form, and function. Teacher: Whether name, form, and function are eternal?  Student: No, they are changing. Teacher: Anything changes does it exist? Whether these are real or merely fictitious images appearing and disappearing before the sightscreen of mind? Student: They are the images constructing my identity as a person. Teacher: Well said! What is the stuff by which these images are made of? Who is maker and what is made? Student: They ar...

पिरोता जाऊँ एक माला ज़िन्दगी का

पढ़ता हूँ हर एक दिन एक ही पन्ना, हर दिन हज़ार ये मालूम पड़ते हैं। जबसे होश संभाला है एक ही पन्ना सवांरते आया हूँ, लोग इसे ज़िन्दगी कहते हैं। इसपे लिखे हर एक लब्ज़ जो मेरे मालूम पड़ते हैं, ना जाने कितने जुबां पे चढ़े होंगे। आज हम भी कुछ पल के लिए ही सही इसके सारथी हैं, जाने से पहले कुछ रंग मेरा भी इसपे चढ़ जाए, बस इसीलिए एक ही पन्ना बार बार पलटता रहता हूँ। हर कोई अनजाने किताब की तलाश में बाहर निकलता है, जिसका हर एक पन्ना वो ख़ुद है। जब ख़ुद के रंग को समझ ही ना पाया, तो भला इंद्रधनुषी किताब के क्या मायने हैं? अस्तित्व में ना जाने कितने पन्ने बिखरे पड़े हैं, बस एक से ही अवगत हो जाऊँ, उसके हर एक शब्द को चुनता जाऊँ, कुछ पल के लिये सही, पिरोता जाऊँ एक माला ज़िन्दगी का।

Human's Rationality: Its Unfree-Freedoms

Cosmic energy is moving into various forms and patterns, its quest is to become, what Arthur Schopenhauer called 'will to live'.  (Arthur Schopenhauer, 1818). He is explicit that: “Thus the will to live everywhere preys upon itself, and in different forms is its own nourishment, till finally the human race, because it subdues all the others, regards nature as a manufactory for its own use. Yet even the human race...reveals in itself with most terrible distinctness this conflict, this variance of the will with itself…”. Every ‘will to become' is a movement, encompassing the history of past and future; the degree of rationality and its gradation are normativized by thoughts as hierarchy of souls and monads. Human being as likeness and image of God possess the highest truth, indeed! In fact, human being is the only species who possess and owns the truth, it is the only mode of being who puts truth at stake, constructs its horizons and claim of legitimacy and illegitimacy, defi...
