CHAPTER-
10
Destiny
Unfolded;
Destiny
- Individual plan.
Equation (9.8)
represents Simultaneous Action Reaction Law for the entire universe.
We can think that all variables in (9.8)
represent physical objects, and they are interacting with each other, using
some kind of spring type interfaces among them. For all humans, this interface
can be quite abstract for us to imagine. If we consider any one person, say A
then we can imagine, A is connected with all other persons and also non-living
objects via these springs. Thus if A moves or takes any action then all other
persons get affected. Similarly when anyone else takes any action then also A
gets affected. Thus any action from anyone will affect the entire universe. Philosopher
Nietzsche thought it that way also.
Conflict
Resolution:
there is a law of nature that says, no
two objects can occupy same space at same
time. We can call it the Space-Time
Problem. That is you cannot bring two glasses at same location at same
time. If you force them, then one of the glasses will break to make room for
the other, that is, there will be conflict resolution problem. Whenever there
is a conflict, you will always be able to find that two objects are trying to
occupy same space at same time. For example, one person is trying to do a job
and at the same time another person is also trying to do the same job and thus
creating a conflict of interests. All conflicts can be prevented from happening
if we can design our management system so that such occupation of same place
does not happen at same time. This method can be applied to even persons,
family, kids, work place, and in all business problems also. For example when
mother asks the kid to do something, at that same time the father should not also
ask the kid to do something else. Thus space-time problem is an important
philosophy, based on laws of nature, for Conflict
Resolution.
Figure-9.1
shows how a Global Plan becomes a
sequence of events from the point of view of an individual objects or human
being like A. Here we consider A as a single point in space, the personal space
of one person, he is isolated and alone, the right hand side represents
progress of time. The Global Plan
generates events sequentially, as represented by the sequence of dots, for
every single person.
Action
Global plan
A Time
Characteristics
This is sequential because two events cannot
happen at same place and at same time. The person A is also evolving with time
as he gains experiences in life. This progress of his characteristics is also
represented by a sequence of dots as shown by bottom array. Thus both events
and characteristics are emanating from the Global
Plan. Although we have isolated A from the Global Plan, but in reality they are all inside the Global Plan. We have extracted and isolated
for demonstrating how the Global Plan affects
an individual.
Isolation;-Nature
is continuously changing and time is running. Every moment the environment
around A would be changing due to continuous evolution of events and personal
characteristics. From the diagram we can see that the person cannot react
independently. He is reacting only in response to events which are actions.
Note that not acting is also a reaction. At a single point, the person is
isolated and working alone in response to actions presented to him
sequentially. That is only one action at a time. He has to follow the Newton Action Reaction Law (9.1)
based on two forces, he has only one choice, apply the equal and opposite
force. We will see that the situations will not give us any possibility of
exercising our options. Or in other words the environment will itself eliminate
all but one option.
Destiny is not same for everybody. Every
individual will encounter different series of events and will also evolve in a
unique way according to his past life and present life experiences. No two events are same, because they
happened at two different places or at two different times. Thus the
environments for each person are different. So the reactions of every
individual will be unique. Following two examples will illustrate how we all
play helplessly under the circumstances of sequential events produced by the Global Plan.
Examples-1;
You
are in your cubicle working intensely on a programming problem; a test engineer
comes to you and knocks your door. You respond and say hello. So far, we see
these acts are just equal and opposite reactions. There are no choices, he
knocks, and you say hi. Test engineer asks which file has voltage limits for
the relay number one. You think little bit and try to remember. Again these are
all sequential events following exactly the Newton’s
Action Reaction Law (9.1).
You cannot use any one of your options, you do not have any choices, but to
respond correctly, for, you are working in a corporation under a Global Schedule. You are constrained by
the Simultaneity Law. You tell the
file named relay-limits is in the include directory. The engineer thanks you
and leaves the office. This is a straight forward simple case of sequential
events which does not have any known pre plan but emanated naturally,
sequentially, from the global activity of test plan and product design of the corporation.
Example- 2;
Here you are the CEO of a corporation. V.P of
sales comes to your office and proposes to create a company labor strike, to
prevent the disgrace and financial setback that the planned export may cause,
if the defective product lot is shipped this week. Both realize the situation
but the C.E.O authorizes the V.P to secretly carryout the labor strike plan.
Here we can see a work which is although immoral and illegal, but still agreed
upon by the C.E.O for the greater good of the corporation. The events happened
sequentially, but it was part of a pre planned activity of V.P, that the C.E.O
had to agree without any option. The allotted time, the environment at the
moment, the characteristics of the person, and the even the nature at present
dictate the action that will be taken by the individual. The totality defines
the Destiny for the Individual. There
are many such small and large scale real life examples all over the world, in
political, religious, and government scenarios. We can thus see that morality and immorality, good and bad, are not
meaningful, everything is part of destiny. The differences in
interpretations are results of global versus local views of the incident. Only Global Space Time (GST) view can give
the universal truth. All local views,
that ignore the global view, are always wrong. We can see that at any moment
the person A is feeling only one action from its collective environment. And
these actions are coming to A only sequentially. Thus A will always obey the Law of Action and Reaction just like an
isolated person. Since actions are coming from the environment A is only
reacting in exactly equal and opposite manner based on his characteristics. These events are happening so fast, in
milliseconds rate that the person does not even know that he is playing in the
hands of nature.For every human being, if you notice carefully, you will
find all interactions with all persons happen sequentially. Events will come to
you sequentially just the way depicted in figure-9.1
that is, never two persons will come to
you at same time, and talk to you at same
time. (nature never violates the Space-Time
Problem.) If they do, then you will not be able to hear them and you will
have to tell them to stop, and speak one after another. You have to listen to
one person first and then the next person. Thus things never happen
simultaneously to any one of us. It is not a violation we are focusing on a
single point in space around any one of us. We have observation which allows us
to take care of things sequentially; human mind also cannot do things
simultaneously. It performs all actions one after another in sequence;
therefore the way you will act will be sequential also.
Unfolding
Destiny;
The events will come to you sequentially and
you will act accordingly, and also sequentially, that is, at any moment you are
responding to only one event with one action. Therefore you will have only one
unique reaction corresponding to the action. The events emanating sequentially
from the Global Plan will
continuously guide you through your planned destiny. You will have no choice. Events
will force you to select only one choice
defined by your destiny. Thus the guiding factors for our actions are;
Events are continuously coming, sequentially,
from Nature or the Global Plan to you.
You are continuously changing because of the
continuously changing environment created by the Global Plan.
Your reaction will be equal and opposite to
the single and unique action presented by the event.
Libets
Experiment;-
Libet
has experimentally found out that we get a ready
potential signal (RP) in our brain
about 550 milliseconds before we take the action. We also get an awareness
of wish to act signal (WA) about 200 milliseconds before the actual
act. Thus stimulus (RP) is already present before we know the wish to act (WA)
signal. Therefore, before you know it, your Soul has talked to you, and your
body will naturally follow it, because you are the Soul. Libets this experiment
was not completely conclusive because of veto
capability where the subject could abort the action after becoming aware of
the action. Under veto condition his experiment system did not have the
capability to record the brain signals. However, under a non-veto condition we
find that Nature or the Soul told us to do something well before we became
aware of it and did it. Thus under this circumstance we can quote that “we inescapably live in the objective past so
that the objective present and future are completely beyond our awareness and
control’’. Note that in Libets experiment events were internally generated
by the subject, they did not come from external nature. But even under this condition destiny will still
prevail. It is hoped that someone in future will repeat the Libets
experiment with proper design and document the results.
We are constantly in touch with nature, and
events are coming from nature and we are acting accordingly. As we have
explained there is no freewill
possible here. You just do not act out of nothing. We always act for some
reason and our action depends on that reason. The ways we act will always be
different for different people. We act according to our personal
characteristics. Which also have been shaped by all the past events and
actions? No two events are same, they happened at two different times, so they
are different. They can also happen at two different places and therefore they
will be different. Thus you cannot say you would have taken a different action
for the same situation. This is because someone else would say the same thing
for the actions you have taken in your life events. Since all persons are different, all events are different, all
positions and environments are different, and time of occurrences are
different, then all actions must be different.
Not
Fatalistic;
Everything in nature is like apples and
oranges, and therefore they cannot be compared. Even two apples are different,
they have different colours, different shapes and thus they are different. Two
electrons are not same. They came from different orbits, or had different
quantum numbers. Moreover, as soon as you take an electron out of its orbit it
will act differently. Just like, I am completely a different person when I am
outside of my home. Thus nobody can be
blamed for his actions, because these things are happening according to nature’s
spontaneous evolution, and we are part of that.
You may say, I will sit idle and destiny will
take care of it. No, that will not happen also. If it is not written for you then you will not be able to sit idle,
because you do not have freewill to sit idle. What actions you will take is
defined by events in nature and your characteristics. In a corporation you
cannot go and sit idle. For, you have made your own plan about your all future
activities of the project on which you are working. Thus sitting idle is not in
your plan. This schedule of activities was created by all of your project team
members, including you, in a planning and design level meeting. You cannot sit
idle now. Why would you change your own plan without any reasons? Things happen
in real life in a completely different way than what we can imagine sitting in
our office. Our imagination can produce many examples to prove that destiny is
false. But our imagination will always fail to explain how and why we all
behave the way we do. We will also fail to explain the miraculous events that
are happening everywhere, all the time in our world. This is true for all real
life reincarnations, yogic powers, and destiny examples that are available
abundantly for us to examine. If you carefully monitor events in your daily
life, moment by moment, then you will find miracles are happening almost every
day in your life. If you document such events carefully, and read them in some
future time, then you will identify major miracles of destiny. However, you
must be able to analyze everything rationally and carefully.
There is another way of thinking, which is
essentially same as above. Destiny says everything happens because of some
reason, that is, nothing can happen without a cause. Since this reason happens
first, then this reason is dictating your action. Thus you are not acting on
your own freewill, you are acting
based on your reason, which happened few milliseconds before. These causes and effects, actions and reactions, or reasons etc. are all same thing and they define the destiny. Libets experiments
show this situation experimentally. There appears an electronic signal inside
our brain 550 milliseconds before we act on it. We are continuously performing
actions in response to the train of these signal pulses. We are always in synchronization
with nature, and working whatever nature is telling us to do. These things
happen so quickly and so naturally that they never makes us feel frustrated
with nature. Thus our actions appear quite natural and almost like freewill. However, the analysis in this subsection has shown that everything is guided by
the forces of nature, and we are integrated with it, and therefore not free at
all.
Eternal
Recurrence;
The German man, Fredric Wilhelm Nietzsche
(1844-1900), one of the most influential philosophers of the west in past 150
years, was greatly influenced by Indian studies in his philosophy and works. He
is credited with the philosophy of eternal
recurrence which says that everything that is happening now has happened
many times in the past and will happen many times in the future. That is, destiny is recurrent or history repeats
itself. He also believed in exactness of such events. Life is precisely
defined and repeated infinitely many times, i.e. eternally recurrent. Eternal recurrence is not just one human
life; it is also for an event, a society etc. In Bible we see eternal recurrence “what has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there
is nothing new under the sun”. Note that the last part is the Law of Conservation, that is, things
cannot be created or destroyed.
There is a very interesting example of eternal recurrence of a mother and
daughter pair whose hand palm lines were identical, the famous western palmist Chiero had shown them to Mark Twain . In this case every action
of the girls life repeated exactly, even to dates, the action of mothers life,
although twenty years separated them in time. Both had same illnesses at same
age, married at same age, had five children, and were a widow at same age. In
this case of Chiero we see
repetition of same events, with a gap of twenty years, in the life of two
different Souls. We show later, the example of Mahabharata as a repetition of Ramayana,
is recognition of the eternal recurrence
phenomenon by ancient yogi like Byas dev,
the author of Mahabharata and Gita.
Interestingly, P.L.R(Past Life Regression)
sessions with Caroline by Dr. Brain Weiss show that she was able to
recognize many past life persons who are physically present in her present
life; confirming a repeating process- a group of people interacting life after
life. In this section it is shown that theoretically Nietzsche is correct, but it will never happen that things will
remain very similar for all of us. We will come to the exactness part, a little
later in this section.Nietzsche also
believed in the Simultaneity Law.
That is, everything in this universe is simultaneously linked and working
together. He points out that if any one changes anything anywhere, that change
will be propagated everywhere in this universe, which is a natural consequence
of the Simultaneous Interconnection Law
for all objects, including humans. We have seen that this Simultaneity Law is the foundation of the Destiny Theory. According to Nietzsche
this hidden eternal recurrence cannot
be seen by ordinary people. Because he says the crowd can only see what exists.
Thus he creates an Overman [Rivera], who is like a very powerful yogi, like an avatar, who can show people the true
nature of eternal recurrence. He also thought that his
Overman can liberate the humanity from the distress of recurrence. We show that
his concept and philosophy of Overman is fairly well embedded in the Destiny Theory of the Universe.
Science
of Eternal Recurrence ;
Take a single sine wave function, which smoothly
goes up and then goes down, at every fixed time interval, called period. In
this wave everything repeats every period, and that is why it is also called
periodic function. In particular, its peak high value will repeat every period.
Now , consider two sinusoidal functions of slightly different frequencies.
Assume that they start at same time at exact zero phase. After the first period
the two waves will have slightly different positions, they will not coincide in
amplitude. But after several cycles, depending on their frequency difference,
the two waves will meet again at exact same phase. This way the two events will recur exactly and
periodically after several distances apart. If we now take a third signal
with slightly different frequency, the situation will be similar again, but
this time the gaps between exact recurrences will be longer. We see such
similarities happening in Ramayana
and Mahabharata stories over a gap of
several thousand years. Thus the core
reason of recurrence is the periodicity of lives and events in our universe. Since
there are billions of periodic events in our universe, there will be almost
zero probability that same event will repeat exactly in the same way. At any
point in time we will however, see many similarities and dissimilarities.
Moreover there are periodic events that are completely destructive in nature,
which may be quite catastrophic. These events will superimpose over other
periodic events to destroy many similarities. Nature is completely
deterministic. There is no probability anywhere. We have seen that the
uncertainty principle of quantum mechanics is wrong. It has assumptions that
are invalid for both nature and engineering. Therefore every single event in nature
can be described by an equation. Since an equation also represents a graph, we
can see any two points in the graph will be similar, because they are related
by an equation. An equation represents similarity. In the same way, all events
in nature are precisely deterministic and therefore can be expressed by a set
of simultaneous equations as in (9.8).
This equation is written in matrix form by (9.9)
this coefficient matrix will also eigen values, some of which can be complex
conjugate numbers, which will produce sinusoidal wave forms. Thus equation (9.8)
embeds periodicity and hence eternal recurrence. The equation (9.8)
also says that any point in time, the vector x will have many components very
close to each other and many will be widely different, just like the sinusoidal
functions examples. Thus by observing the events in nature, taken together, at
any time slice, we will always be able to see the similarities, because they
were all created by an underlying equation. This similarity is maintained by
the equations of nature.
P.R.Theory;
This theorem is very much like the
mathematical equivalent of Nietzsche’s Eternal Recurrence Theory of Nature. PRT
says that a dynamical system under fairly general conditions will come close to
any point in its state space infinitely many times over infinite time interval.
If we apply this to nature, it amounts to saying history repeats itself; we see in Mahabharata, things can be fairly close to Ramayana, but many things can be different too. Thus theoretically
things can be exactly similar but in real life there will be many differences.
Moreover we should remember infinity is nonexistent in nature. Everything has a
finite time death process. A star and a galaxy will die eventually. The PRT can
be explained using the following hypothetical experimental simulation. Consider
a transparent sealed cubic box of one foot size. Assume that we have one
microscopic coloured particle inside it that is moving randomly everywhere in
all directions hitting the walls and coming back to everywhere. Assume that you
have one observation probe at any location inside the box; you will find that
the particle will hit the probe every now and then, infinitely many times, over
infinite time intervals, thus the hitting
event is eternally recurrent.
Brahmas
Day;
Both Nietzsche
and Vivekananda said that life will
repeat exactly. Their logic is that the universe has finite number of
particles. Each object is a combination of such particles, and therefore after
some time, the exact same combination will appear again, and the life will
repeat exactly. But the reality is that each particle (root material) has three
properties- satwa, tamas, and rajas-which can be combined in any proportions to create an object.
This is also a part of the Samkhya Theory
of Vedas. These three properties are analogue properties, not discrete, and
continuously vary with time. Such analogue combinations will prevent the exact
matches. Moreover Destiny Theory also
suggests that no two lives of the same Soul
will ever be identical. However, the exactness point of Nietzsche is correct. This is a very
important concept related to the characteristics of the universe. Since
everything in the universe is periodic in nature, the totality of all events
must be periodic. Therefore the universe must be periodic also. The entire universe will die and grow again, and
will continue repeating the birth maturity death process, for eternity. Gita
also says that the universe reincarnates. That is, universe has Brahma day (12
hours) and Brahma night (12hours), each one is about 4.3 billion years long. During
the night the universe dies and becomes empty. During the day the universe
begins to grow again, exactly the same way as it happened in the previous Brahma
day. Here is another verse from Gita
on rebirth of the universe. ‘’Again and again,
when Brahmas day arrives, all living entities come into being, and with the
arrival of Brahmas night they are helplessly annihilated.”
We have discussed in this chapter earlier that
memory is in the nature and not in our brains. That is why a high level yogi with the power of divine vision (third eye) can see the
entire universe and can predict the destiny
of any event or object, including humans. The proof of this concept of memory
is given by the 800,000 palm leaf booklets in India, called Bhrigu and Agysthya Samhitas, which describe precise destiny of that many people, now living in our world. These
booklets were written more than 10,000 years back. Memory is preserved in nature
by the Law of Conservation. So, each
time the Brahma day begins, the universe will repeat the exact same destiny of
the previous Brahma day. Thus Ramayana
will be repeated again and again, and so will Mahabharata, etc. Thus the universe gets a reset at the beginning
of the Brahma day and we all begin the same exact life cycles we had during the
previous universe. Thus every 8.6 billion years you will repeat the exact same
life, as Nietzsche pointed out. But
as we have seen, that exactness will never happen in the same universe, that
is, during the same Brahma day.
A comb like Piano reeds rolls over these pins
to create music. Our universe is like such a cylinder with pins representing
the objects and the music as their destiny.
Half of the cylinder surface (180 degrees) along the axis represents the Brahma
night. Just like we are born at different times, slowly grow, stay matured, and
then slowly die, the same happens to the stars and galaxies of this universe,
slowly and at different times, as per Samkhya
Darshan.
