Units Lie or Mislead- part 1

 Numbers can be said to be a symbol given to anything. Like a name is used to identify that thing which was named, numbers are used to identify the repetition of the thing or person. That is when something is identified and same thing is repeated then it can be counted or relevance of counting exist. Suppose in a village 10 mothers give birth in the same month and named differently. A wise man said they are different but they all can be classified in terms of age, let us called, below 10 month human a child. They all share that traits now each of them are child and can be counted up to 10. 

From above we saw that something which is common trait should be held constant for numbers to operate,  let us call them as units. Then units are not numbers but name which at the time of observation or counting can be traced to repetition. Let us try this to different setting. Can different units be numbered ? Answer is no. But can same things when repeated differently, numbered differently? Yes, as we can number human character bearing beings when come together and form a group to deal with such other groups, new unit called family formed. We can add men to form family but then men unit disappeared. So, units are just name given  to repetition of some common name. And number operations can be performed keeping units constant. 

It is my belief that the number system prevalent in the world, so called hindu number system, or system with repetition of counting after every 9 numbers, came from astrological calculations. Then can be dated to vedic time as astrology is prerequisite of learning vedas. As we know in computing binary number system is used. Logic is simple, every time light is on that is 1 and off that is 0, though 0 translated erroneously as zero from Sunya, it gets its right meaning in binary system. Then what necessity compel Rishis to make repetition after every 9 numbers i.e. 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9. Its my belief that these 9 are  Sun, moon, mars, mercury, jupiter, venus, saturn, rahu and ketu, because they travel in 12 houses in their own motion in Kundali. There is no need to go and talk about Sun doesn’t move around earth etc. They travel and each year there position is required for predictions. Sunya is everything complete, abekta, unexpressed. When something got balanced it gets sunya. Nine numbers 1 to 9 here fit perfectly, they are different, hence not added but repeated hence should be counted over the time of years. Hence, Rishis develop revolutionary number system.

Sustainable development of Life

 XYZ whatever be the technicalities of a life process, the origin is, as I am convinced at this point of time, nothing but wish of Nature or who create the nature. The sole purpose of life is to consume itself. Consume is really the worst word in this context. Let me say to observe the beauty of itself by itself. Hence, we are designed in such a way with such and such purposes by the ultimate guiding truth which is ever full of knowledge of all kind. It can do anything (proof: various form of lives), it is evolved or it is ordained by truth can be a debate. Base of life is nature or life (especially human) struggle with nature to evolve itself. First one provide possibilities of re-creation of more sophisticated or more adaptable life suitable to the nature at that point of time, second is more egoist approach to life and claim nature as nothing but inert objects which are subject to enjoyment or preservation for enjoyment in future (as now discussed in the name of sustainable deve...

Ethics : Dharma of Individual (Yoga Sutra)

 Ethics as virtue-  it is collection of desirable action for sustaining society. [dying for group's belief ] Ethics as utility- it is collection of desirable action for sustaining society and more rudely exchanged in name of utility, often society can buy desirable action for society and tag it with ethics. [dying in poverty is ethical but to save life by robbery is not] Ethics of universal rationality- whatever action that can be universalized is ethical and others are not. collectively it again universalize social needs over individual {I am deficient here....} Ethics of social contract- here even an attempt to hide the social behavior and labeling it as ethics has been withdrawn [collective interest labeled as ethics] In my limited understanding these alternatives, individuality is easily coerced by society. But these definitions are not capable to define anything at all. Many things now called Ethics are borrowed from religion. Mainly non-violence and etc. can be traced di...

Dharma Ra Nyaya-1

 In no way I am writing with any certainty about these words or realities or whatever phenomena they are. But with quite a discussion with a learned friend of mine, clarity of thoughts seems to built within. However, from very surface reading and my own biases, Dharma and Nyaya have been same thing for me. Naya here is not a branch of philosophy rather justice in its strict sense.  What is Nyaya? In its day-to-day life, a decision by court of justice is itself justice. One can try to cry over and over yet in short run whatever a reason of court is will be justice. However, in truth, justice is related with what a pure human consciousness guide the human being as a justice is justice. Qualifying consciousness with purity may be a false attempt to define something undefined. Here, purity of reason can do good work. With hope , purity of reason coincide with one true reason by all human being. With a good wish, many have found to place great trust in universal reason or something...
