The Ultimate Theory of the Cosmos?
Firstly, let us discuss the limitations of scientific discoveries and these are the admissions of eminent scientists, themselves. Firstly, they admit that they are trying to find out a complete theory of everything, a unified theory of Quantum Theory and Relativity theory, which could throw light on the evolution of Universe, or the possibility of other Universes, and whether there is a possibility of its re-collapse (Called Maha Pralya in our philosophical texts) and again reverting back to a singularity, with immense mass and energy.
Secondly, Newton’s three laws of motion may have led to industrial revolutions and our great strides in the field of physics and other fields of science but ultimately gave way to Einstein’s Theories. But again, as per scientists, E=MC2, has its limitations. In certain situations, it also fails to account for the nature of the Universe at its inception and can never help us to physically reach and examine those parts of even this Universe, which are drifting away from us with speeds more than the speed of light. So, can our theoretical calculations done on our computers and Labs reveal the secrets of all those Universes, galaxies, stars and planets, where we will never reach physically, because as per this theory, we cannot travel more than the speed of light.
Moreover, we are still trying to find out the Fifth Force of nature, apart from the four known forces, Gravitation, Electro-Magnetism, the Weak Nuclear force and the Strong Nuclear force, as we have not been able to find out the composition of about 96% of the Universe, called Dark matter and Dark energy. Then how can we hope to find out the real nature and all aspects of nature.
The assumptions about the nature, Black holes, the relativity theories, the string theory, the initial configuration of Universe after the Big bang and much more and all our scientific efforts may help us to some extent but still we will need to combine the other fields of science, from Biology to Neuro biology, from Genetics to Epigenetics, and from the concepts of evolution of species, the generation of life, the difference between humans and other forms of life. We will have to find the answer whether that cockroach, hiding in the dark corners of my kitchen, or the monkey sitting atop a tree in my backyard are my ancestors? We have to combine the theories of Physics with our knowledge as to how our brain functions, how Genes switch on and off to regulate the formation of enzymes and proteins and their content, type and quality, which ultimately decide actions and behaviors and our capability to decipher the true nature of atoms, the sub atomic particles and many other scientific wonders. This will also require the capability to understand as to what is our memory, where we store millions of files, in video, audio, and still formats, their size and format and how this retained memory decides what sort of actions we are going to perform, logical or illogical, rational or irrational.
We can’t ignore the exceptional contributions of eminent scientists like Charles Darwin, James Watson, Francis Creek, Gregor Mendel, Hunt Morgan and many others. But still their concepts and theories have gaps. We still have not been able to find out that if we have evolved from monkeys and chimpanzees or cockroaches, why so many of them are still on this planet. Why all of them did not become humans. Why humans made so great strides in science and these so called ancestors of ours are still jumping on trees and doing the same actions which they were doing millions of years ago. Similarly, our findings in the fields of Genetics, Epigenetics and Neuro-Biology have not been able to find out the reasons of our actions, about our Mind, about our intelligence and the stuff of our mind and its ultimate fate after death, where it goes after the five basic constituents of human body merge into the constituents of nature, from which they are made.
We are still groping in the dark whether the humans are a different species or fall in the same category of other creatures. If we recognize and appreciate the lifelong efforts of the scientists to find out the truth, which have helped us to reach this stage of modernization, we can’t ignore the contributions of Prophets and sages of all religions, who also spent their entire lives in search of the same ultimate truth, may be, by adopting a different path. Our efforts to develop and experiment with Hadron Collider at CERN and other places, our journeys into space, the efforts to locate and find the source of Black holes and other stars will certainly help us to some extent but we have to realize that we will have to find a harmonious blend of all these concepts and theories of science with logical and well reasoned thoughts and Mystic traditions of India. We may, ultimately have to realize and acknowledge that the concept of “Apara” and “Para” energies, which as per Bhagvad Gita, permeate all living and non living things of all the Universes, and which have been termed as “Brahman” are the “Fifth” and “Sixth” Forms of energy and are worth giving a serious thought by the scientific community. The ‘Apara’ is the “Fifth “energy, being probed by the Physicists and is that energy which comprises five basic constituents of the Universe, called Earth, water, fire, air and Ether and also Mind, Ego and Intelligence (Verse 4, Chapter 7, Bhavad Gita) and which maintains the equilibrium of Universes and is separate from all the four forms of energy discovered by the scientists till date and the ‘Para” is that “Sixth” energy, which no scientist has tried to look for and which permeates all living creatures, in the form of Soul and regulates its movement from one place to another and maintenance of different forms of life, in these Universes. The material substance, called “Mahat Tattav” is the total cosmic manifestation, in which there are three modes of nature, which have been talked earlier and the knowledge of which, will give the true and whole knowledge.

Cosmology and High Energy Physics are not my forte but my write up and YouTube presentations on Corona Virus, had concluded that Indian Philosophy offers the best possible way to fight it on long term basis. Darwin’s Theory of Evolution and Einstein’s theories of Relativity and some emerging theories, like String Theory reveal only a part of the genesis of this Universe and Human Race and we need to go to the Indian Philosophy to get a complete answer. I have received a few queries as to how Philosophy can reveal truth about Universe, which requires scientific studies and parameters and what so many eminent scientists, Nobel Laureates and intellectuals par excellence could not find despite painstaking efforts of decades. This is the reason for this write up.Firstly, let us discuss the limitations of scientific discoveries and these are the admissions of eminent scientists, themselves. Firstly, they admit that they are trying to find out a complete theory of everything, a unified theory of Quantum Theory and Relativity theory, which could throw light on the evolution of Universe, or the possibility of other Universes, and whether there is a possibility of its re-collapse (Called Maha Pralya in our philosophical texts) and again reverting back to a singularity, with immense mass and energy.
