Any discussion about the universe
the species existing in the universe and the individuals of the species would remain
incomplete if in this discourse three stations are left out. The stations which
are three stages of that creative process which, in fact, is the basis of
existence of the universe and is responsible for the Occurrence and Effects of
life in the universe_ This thing is required to be remembered carefully that
when a person wants to live an individual life or wants to understand life
remaining in a circle of individuality, he exercises a limited approach of
thinking, which is devoid of sincerity and selflessness.
Having sincerity by an individual
means that he should be having the thinking approach of the species, rising
above the level of individual thinking. When a person manages to have the
thinking approach of the species after liberating himself from the
individuality, sincerity springs up in him and his wisdom and intellect changes
into a collective one rather than that of individual nature. Then this
sincerity is further boasted up when the same person rises above his own
species level and contemplates about all the species of the universe: in this
case the limits of the species' thinking approach, enlarges to become a
universal thinking approach and this helps him to have an established link with
the universe, which eventually results in having a distinguished position in
the universe.
The human body is called the
physical body, that which is ordinarily
called matter is the product of the Unconscious machine. Normally it is
considered that the diet taken in from the outer world is responsible for the
creation of blood and flesh of physical body_ But the question is that the very
same body is rent asunder at a particular time despite having the supply of
food from without and then the same body at times despite non-consumption of
food does not perish, rather it remains, though it becomes weak and feeble. It
would be an altogether wrong conjecture to think that the food supplied to the
body is responsible for the creation and formation of the physical body, in
fact, man's unconscious (Internal Self) transforms the lights into material
form the great spiritual scientist: Qalander Baba Auliya explains this thing by
giving an example.
Man, he says, in his lifetime
usually suffers sometimes more than once. Fatal and protracted diseases and his
diet is reduced to the minimum or is altogether forbidden but still he does not
expire. One would eventually conclude that this physical machine is not
responsible for keeping life functional. These observations also confirm that
whatever the human body gets from without is not responsible for life. The
skill of Unconscious and the lights transferred from the Internal Self are
responsible for life and its functioning. After birth and then infancy, man
attains an age of sixty or sometimes even ninety or more. His body, his
thoughts, his knowledge and activities keep on changing all the time.
Every bit and part of his physical body, knowledge, thoughts
and habits are replaced and changed but the person remains the very same person
who was born some sixty or ninety years ago. If his name were Tom, he would always
be addressed by that name of Torn and, will be remembered as Tom. This thing
clearly establishes that the concepts and images transferred to the human
conscious by the
Internal Self remains the same and unchanged even if the physical body deteriorates or decomposes
What is Tom?
When the basis of Tom is taken into consideration, it would be eventually
concluded that Tom is nothing but the Internal Self. The changes are not taking
place in the internal Self but in the Personal Ego (the Conscious). It has been
stated in the Holy Scriptures,
'Verily He is
the One who is encompassing everything."
The knowledge of the universe is not possessed by the personal Ego. This
issue is to be resolved that when Tom is the Internal Self then why does he not
possess the knowledge of the universe. The answer is quite simple He remains
absorbed within his own self i.e., he is a self-centered person and is
unconcerned with the internal self. He does not want to come out of his narrow
self. Now, as a matter of law, if someone remaining in his own limits thinks about
himself then his thinking remains limited and his confined thinking does not
allow him to exercise sincerity.
Limiting individual thinking is the limited senses and the species
approach of thinking is the unlimited senses. The unlimited senses become the
guiding light for the Internal Self when depth is produced in the thinking if
all the interests of a person are limited to his family, his thinking will
remain confined to his family only and accordingly, his observations and, views
will also be limited. Or to say, he has confined his understanding within the
confines of his family. Therefore, he is unable to see beyond the limits of his
family. It is the law that eyes and ears of a person see and hear within the
perimeter of the understanding and the intellectual peripheries of that person,
these cannot see or hear anything beyond the range of his understanding.
A person who is self-centered and his thinking
approach is limited to his own self then he cannot advance on the paths of
metaphysics. For traveling on the paths of metaphysical realms, it is necessary
that one should be able to liberate oneself from the individual thinking and,
the collective thinking should replace the individual thinking. This also
clarifies the need of religion for the human life because; the religions tempt a person to have the collective approach
as a way of life and, to behave as a collective entity after emerging from the
limiting individuality.
Every religion teaches to love one another, in order to exercise
fraternity. Teachings of every religion are to avoid dissension and discord and
to stand united. Religions teach us to wish the same for others that we like
for ourselves. This is what makes a religion inevitable for human life. A
person cannot have sincerity for the universe if the religious values are not
observed and practiced by him.
A nation remains devoid of sincerity if certitude
and faith is not there. A nation having a selfish and individual approach of
thinking cannot manage to rise to the universal values this type of a nation
would remain in infancy even
if it exists for many thousand years.
The light, which is felt by our eyes, is a veil drawn between the
internal self and the personal ego. This
light is responsible for conveying the concepts and imaginations of the
Internal Self to the Personal Ego Information given to the Personal Ego by the
Internal Self, in other words, are carried over to the Personal Ego by this
very light after giving them color, form, shape and dimensions. Television
could be referred to as an example in this regard. All that is telecast from
the television station can be seen and heard on the screen of the television
receiving apparatus but, when the communication is switched off, nothing can be
heard or sighted. Similar is the case of Information relayed by the Internal
Self. Man's observations and knowledge is in accordance with the Information
received from the Internal Self. Individuals of mankind see and hear only that
about which they manage to receive Information. It has been stated in the Holy
Scripture,
"We have
created everything in fixed quantities”
When we take this thing into consideration and
deliberate upon it, it is found that this law is prevalent in the whole
universe. Everything, every species has specific quantities and these fixed
quantities are specific for every species and are transferred down generation
after generation. Cat, for instance, cannot be a dog a goat cannot give birth to a lion and man
can procreate no other species but man. As a matter of law every species has
its own individual identification due to the very same fixed quantities
operative in it and transference of the same fixed quantities is responsible
for maintaining the specific features and characteristics of each species,
generation after generation.
What are these
fixed quantities?
These fixed quantities, in actual fact, are the lights, which after
interchanging in a particular ratio create a specific species. Great spiritual
scientist; Qalander Baba Auliya has denominated these creative lights as the
compound nasma. This reality is stated in the Holy Scripture in these words:
"God is the Light of the heavens and the earth." Christ told, 'God said, "Light" and there
it was'.
V. Kirlian and S.D. Kirlian, inventors of Kirlian
Type Photography, after taking photographs of the surrounding body of lights of
various objects proved the existence of body of lights and called it aura. It is only the parapsychology, which
tells us that how, do these fixed quantities display themselves. These fixed
quantities manifested as electrons, protons
and neutrons are functioning in living organisms as chromosomes. Various
examples can be cited to elucidate this thing. Every element has a specific
atomic number and a particular atomic weight. What is this atomic number?
Atomic Number indicates the number of electrons or
protons present in an element that is atomic number is indicative of specific
numbers of electrons or protons existing in an element. If somehow the number
of protons of an element are increased or decreased then the element would
become altogether a different element, according to the change so induced.
Fixed quantities of light, according to the theory of Chromolucis, display themselves
in the form of chromosomes, in the living organisms. This fact is well known to
the experts of Genetics that every species has specific number of chromosomes
in its cells. The number of chromosomes in cat, goat, sheep, lion and human
beings are specific for each of them.
There are 23 pairs of chromosomes i.e., 46
chromosomes in the human beings. Particular ratio of the lights or the fixed
quantities, in fact, are the creative formula of a species which not only
control the particular inherited characteristics of a species but the
individuality of a species is also maintained by them How is the specific
quantity of chromosomes in every species maintained? For having understanding in this regard we are required to examine
the process of creation.
Deterioration and cell division keeps on taking place in the human body
and the multi-cellular organisms new cells are formed in the human body and the
multi-cellular organisms resulting from this cell division. The cell division
is of two types Scientists have called them as Mitosis and Meiosis.
Mitosis is the process of cell division, which takes
place in all the cells of the human body except the cells taking part in
fertilization. In mitosis, the number of chromosomes, in newly formed cells,
remains the same as are there in the parent cells, i.e. if there are 46
chromosomes in the parent cells then the daughter-cells will also have 46
chromosomes. In this process first the number of chromosomes is doubled and
then equally divide into two nuclei. But, in the reproductive system, where the
sperms and ova are produced, the number of chromosomes is reduced to half. In
this process diploid number of chromosomes is halved, to combine with another
half-set at fertilization. It is known as Meiosis.
God's creative work has been
recapitulated in the Holy Scriptures in the following manner.
"We did create man from a
quintessence of clay, then we placed him as a drop of sperm in a place of rest,
the womb, firmly fixed. Then. We made the sperm into a clot of congealed blood (Zygote).
Then of that clot we made an Embryo. In that Embryo We produced bones and
clothed the bones with flesh. Thus we developed another creature. So blessed be
God, the best of creators,"
(V: 13-14, 5:23)
Sperm and ovum combine to produce zygote. Resulting
the cell division, after 7 or 8 days. Zygote transforms into Blastocyst and
occupies a firm place in the womb. The place in the womb where the blastocyst
sticks to the walls of the womb gives rise to a capillaries network of veins
and arteries through which the food is supplied to the embryo. A bone structure
is produced in the blastocyst and then this is encased in flesh. Thus an embryo
is formed in the womb. The embryo grows into fetus. This whole creative process
takes place within the womb of the mother.
Creation-wise, in females, the blue color is predominating and in males,
the pink color is dominant.
When the structure of chromosomes is taken into consideration, it is
observed that the chromosomes are diploid i.e., the chromosomes are in homologous
pairs. One part of these chromosomes comes from the father and the other comes
from the mother's side. Chromosomes are produced from DNA (Deoxyribonucleic
acid) and protein. Unit of DNA is called
gene. Conscious of parents and their habits are transferred to the child though
the very same genes. All that which is learnt from the surrounding atmosphere
is also stored in these genes. Hereditary traits, diseases, abilities, nature,
characteristics, complexion, blood group, form and structure, et al are found
in genes in a form of record. Gene, in fact, is the record of the species.
Half of the child's conscious comes from the parents and the ambient
society and environments contribute the other half. A thought is perceived by
the nasma and then it reaches the genes. The genes then instruct the cells to
act upon the instructions perceived. The instructions of genes are carried out,
throughout the whole life, by the body cells.
It has been established, in the era of modern sciences, that the
thoughts of mother affect the genes of the baby. If, for instance, mother
remains worried and suffering from anxiety during pregnancy then the begotten
child is mentally weak once an English lady
gave birth to a child who was Negro in all respects. Black skin, woolly hair,
flat nose and strong built. The father of the child refused to acknowledge this
child as his son but the mother insisted that it was his son. When the
situation grew very tense and investigations were carried out. It was found
that the room, where the mother used to live during her pregnancy, had a photograph of a Negro child. The board
of doctors, psychologists and scholars concluded that the picture of the Negro
child was responsible for a Negroid child. The mother during her pregnancy had
developed an association with the child in the picture and she repeatedly saw
the picture. This resulted depth in her feelings and the conceptualized
feelings were transferred to the child in the womb.
So, when she again conceived, she was directed to look at
a picture of a beautiful child. Consequent to this experiment, the lady gave
birth to a child who had almost the same features and complexion as that of the
child in the picture. This example has been cited to establish that how the
concepts and thoughts have bearing upon matter and the material world.
