NATURE OF LIFE: - MATERIAL OR NON-MATERIAL. (MIND POWER – 3).--




(Excerpts from book: MIND POWER (1980) CH 8, Author - Swami Vijnananand (S.V.), Manashakti publication)

 

Emergence of Life, the chain is:

  1. Primitive Ocean with non-rational structure….. 2. Nucleic acid molecule / equivalent of free living gene….. 3. Multiplication with nucleic acid in ocean in the sunlight. ….. 4. Original viruses (non-parasite) 5. Collection of genes: (chromosomes). 6. Single cell organism.

The question of life is related to origin of controversy regarding the nature of life. The question under examination is:-

Was the original form of life -  

-          The specialized development of matter or
-          Spirit merely using the texture of matter as a suitable staircase for its appearance. (Non-matter is using matter for life’s appearance).

Let us consider this aspect “Nature of Life” from bottom end, i.e. Virus.

8.2.      What is virus?

a)      Virus an important link connecting the living organism with inanimate nature. (Border between life and lifeless.) An attribute of living organism is metabolism but viruses do not have this property.

b)      Viruses are singular, very primitive forms of existence of protein bodies. They simultaneously possess attributes of animals and inanimate matter. They do not breathe and have no cell structure, no nuclei, cytoplasm and organoids. They cannot multiply (grow) outside the cell of other organism, but inside the cell of other organism, they increase in number. Many viruses are agents of disease in human beings, animals and plants.

c)      Certain viruses have been obtained in the form of crystals of nucleoproteins, which can be dissolved, precipitated again and recrystallized without loss of their essential biological properties.

d)     The American biochemist W.M..Stanley first isolated virus, in crystalline form in1935. Other viruses were also isolated in crystalline form. Among them is a virus of polio.

e)      Viruses are visible only under electron microscope.

f)       Virus converts itself to the simplest form of living creature.-
Increase in size to a definite degree increases the complexity of the chemical constitution of virus and gradually approximates (almost equalizes) their properties to the simplest form of the living creatures.

g)   The origin of the virus is very complex problem. : Scientists have not agreed whether modern viruses are ancient forms that existed on the boundary between animate and inanimate nature or whether they are secondary phenomenon arising from pathological changes in the Part of animal or plant cells.

Virus: - Can this be considered as “non-living” or is this life in dormant stage?

Since certain viruses can be crystallized, can they be considered as non-living? Or is it the case of life being dormant?

The indirect answer is: Is a sleeping man dead? Is a stored seed waiting new plantation considered dead? No. Here the life is in dormant stage.

Viruses are considered to represent free genes. In search of gene theory you find threshold of physical science, crossed. How can one bring the spirit of life back to the material consideration?

Original virus  Virus: - A free living gene

We have seen that viruses multiply only in the cell of other organizations. If they are considered as origin in the life, then how they could multiply when there was no life and no cells of other animals?

Here we see the answer to the problem. We have seen the chemical scene on the earth and formation of Primitive Ocean with non-rational structure. In the chemical evolution when “nucleic acid molecule” was formed the equivalent of free living gene, (transferred from complex improved structured coaservate drops) or any viruses, were present in the ocean, and they multiplied at the expense of organic compounds that had been built up all about them by the action of sun.

Original viruses, non-parasitic

These original viruses were not parasites for there was nothing for them to be parasitic upon.

Virus (gene) ------------ Chromosome

The life had finally gotten down to the bare chromosome. The smallest viruses were nothing more than collection of wild genes (created from coaservate drops) ready to invade cells and impose their own will upon them, over and above supervision of the cell’s own genes. They (gene-virus) mutate like any cell organism and their genes are similar even if their patterns of heredity transmission may be unique.

The book MIND POWER explains gene “imposing its will” in point 8.4 where as in point 8.5 possibility of viral DNA becoming integral part of chromosome is explained with references.

Virus (gene), imposing its will, later becoming integral part of chromosome and then replicating along with the reminder of the chromosome. Thus here we see that the gene, virus can enter the life of animal/man etc. to impose its free will

Virus destroying cell completely.

In point 8.6 the book explains how a virus called bacteria phage attaches to the cell and devours it (eats like a beast) completely.


What apparently happens is this:-

·         The virus attaches itself to the surface of its choice.(or part of it)
·         Enters the cell and literally disappears.
·         The virologist (virus expert scientists) looks and sees no traces of virus. (Even if he grinds up the cell, he fails to liberate a demons ratably infective agent.)
·         Twenty four minutes later the cell bursts releasing 200 new fully formed virus particles, ready to infect new cells.
·         The host cell is dead, drained and broken.

Viruses don’t grow and reproduce, they replicate. Since these are the things we observe, we are clearly unjustified in stating that virus grow and reproduce, we only know that they replicate.

Virus is a concrete clue.

With all these ghastly pictures of aggression, multiplication, growth, birth how can the whole process be merely the material process? Virus is a domain with such complexities that we have to turn back to it, after we see its different invasions through bacteria, plant, men.

Cell

Cell is undoubtedly agreed as a primary unit consisting of life. The fundamental distinguishing properties of the living cell consist in its ability:-

(i)To assimilate material necessary to its structure from the surrounding medium

(ii)To turn these materials in to the substances used for the growth of its body.

(iii)To divide in to two similar cells, each of its own size (and capable of growth), when its geometrical dimensions become too large

These abilities to eat, to grow and to multiply are of course common to all more complex organisms made up of individual cell.

Salt crystal

If we drop a small salt crystal in a super saturated salt solution in water, the crystal will grow by adding to the surface successive layers of salt molecules extracted from the matter. We can even imagine that, because of some mechanical effects, as for example, the increased weight of growing crystal, they will break up in to two halves after reaching a certain size and then the -  baby crystal- so formed will continue the process of growing.

Why should not we also classify this process “Life phenomenon”?

This is not a life phenomenon, because…..

The food which the crystal uses for its growth is accumulated into its body without changes from its form in the solution. (It is not digested). The molecules of salt collect themselves on the surface of growing crystal. This is ordinary mechanical accretion (matter which is added to and accumulates in layers) instead of typical bio chemical assimilation. Also the multiplication of crystals by occasional breaking up in to irregular parts of no predetermined properties as a result of sheer mechanical force of weight has but little resemblance to the precise and constant biological division of living cells into halves, which is brought about chiefly by “internal force”.

8.3 Three characteristics of Living.

Life cannot be given explanation only on physical terms. If one attempts to give only physical explanation then the life phenomenon turns mysterious. But if the concept of “mind and its desire” are taken as a scientific base then the life phenomenon does not remain mysterious.

Unknown factors (In science)

(i)        We don’t yet know whether viruses without an envelope enter the cell intact, with subsequent release of more nucleic acid or whether the protein coat remains at the cell surface while nucleic acid enters the cytoplasm alone.

(ii)       How viral nucleic acid dominates the metabolism of the host cell is imperfectly understood.

(iii)      Sometimes too there are complex interactions between the virus and host cell and the synthesis of various enzymes is required to produce viral molecules. This too involves a greater amount of nucleic acid in the virus.

(iv)      We do not yet know how virus brakes out of animal cell, but the release of lissome enzymes may play a part.

(v)       Plasma gene (part of cell influencing inheritance) of one host turning into virus in another suitable host.

(vi)      How tobacco mosaic virus can be used as a source of protein by animals.

(vii)     A mutation may occur in a body cell (somatic mutation) and is then transmitted to all cells derived from mitosis from that cell.

(Mitosis: - The usual method of cell division, characterized typically by the resolving of chromatin by the nucleus into a thread like form, which condenses into chromosomes each of which separates into two parts. One part of each chromosome being retained in each of two new cells resulting from the original cell.)

Nature of life is “non-matter” not “matter”

What has already been said appears to be sufficient (Further consideration follows in this book) to convince us of the fact that science at present is crossing the threshold of the purely physical explanation of “mysterious” phenomenon of life.

Nature’s secrets could be understood.

Wisdom added to the secret of nature (secrets, not at the instance of nature, but at the instance of ego elevated man) can be meaningfully deciphered (understood, resolved)

(The biological laws, when studied with “mind” considered as a scientific entity, will reveal rational behind the so called secrets/paradoxes.)

Summary:

-  Virus: life in dormant stage, an important link connecting the living organism with inanimate nature. The attribute of living organism is metabolism but viruses do not have this property. Viruses are singular, very primitive forms of existence of protein bodies. They simultaneously possess attributes of animals and inanimate matter. They do not breathe and have no cell structure. They cannot multiply (grow) outside the cell of other organism, but inside the cell of other organism, they increase in number.

-  Cell is undoubtedly agreed as a primary unit consisting of life. The fundamental distinguishing properties of the living cell consist in its ability:-

(i)To assimilate material necessary to its structure from the surrounding medium

(ii)To turn these materials in to the substances used for the growth of its body.

(iii)To divide into two similar cells, each of its own size (and capable of growth).

-   Life is the association of matter (body) and non-matter (mind). If mind leaves the body the life comes to an end. Desire (of associating or leaving) is the attribute of non-matter (mind).

LIFE BORN OF "NON-MATTER", NOT BY CHANCE. (MIND POWER - 2)



(Excerpts from book: MIND POWER (1980) CHAPTER 7, Author - Swami Vijnananand (S.V.), Manashakti publication)





 7.  Life on Earth.

7.3              The chemical scene.(Please see earlier Blog 29 on the subject)

Through the passage of time, chemical evolution progressed and so also the conditions originating life. The book “cell” by Prof. Swanson page 265 gives this in a nice way.
The development of biological elements from primary elements demands so many answers to so many questions.
First of all: - What was exact change after life was borne and was it essentially different from matter?

7.4. Concluding land marks, Life born of “non-matter”, not by “Chance”

At first we found carbon scattered in the form of separate atoms, in the red hot stellar (of a star or stars) atmospheres. We then found it as component of hydrocarbons which appeared on the surface of the earth. With time these hydrocarbons were transformed into their oxygen and nitrogenous derivatives in to the simplest organic substances. In the water of primitive oceans, these substances formed more complex compounds. Proteins and similar substances appeared. Thus the materials of which bodies of animals and plants are formed came in to being. At first these materials existed in a dissolved state.

Coaservate drops:-The forebears of life on the earth.

Then it began to separate from its environment in the form of coacervate drops. The first coaservate drops were of simple structure, but gradually substantial changes took place in their structure. They acquired more and more complex structure and improved structure. They were finally transformed in to primary living beings…………The forebears of all life on the earth.

Life continued to develop. The first living beings were not cellular. But at a definite stage of life’s development the cell appeared. Unicellular and then multi cellular organisms established themselves on our planet.

The development link was as follows:

Carbon atoms ------ hydrocarbons -------- oxygen/nitrogen derivatives, simple organic substances --------- (water from ocean) ------- complex organic compounds ------ coaservate drops ------- primary living being. (Non-cellular)

7.5 Chances and the chemical view of life.

Life by chance seems impossible. Whether cell or virus, their chemical composition is much similar. Cell biology tells us that even in a single organism there are hardly any perceptible differences in the cell. The differentiation in purpose is vast and varied. Book “The Cell” on page 225 tells:-
Because of the exact replication and segregation of the DNA during cell production, all the cells in multi cellular organism contain the same type of and amount of nuclear information. Since nucleus is the control center of the cell, all cells should have the same potential and be capable of manufacturing all the proteins of the body…….The obvious fact, however is that they do not do so for a large number of reasons discussed in this book. This looks to be beyond probability.

To substantiate this, following references may be seen.

Dr Singh and Dr Thompson record on page 28 of “What is matter and what is life” that a “chance” could not have created life even once in thousand billion years.

“Consciousness and laws of Nature” page 62, and “Theories of probability” page 248, mentions:
There is need of new perspective. As many difficulties are encountered in attempts to understand and apply present days theories of probability. Conceivably, Probability is not possible.
A careful sifting of our intuitive expectation and requirement for the theory of probability might reveal that they are unfulfilled or logically in-consistent.

(If we carefully and minutely check across (a) our intuitive expectation and (b) requirement for the theory of probability, it may reveal that they (i.e. requirements) cannot be fulfilled and logically they are not consistent).

It is told that if a single cell of an infant is (assumed to be) manufactured in one minute, a skilled worker will take five thousand years to repeat it. The infant body contains billions of cells. Thus billions of cells multiplied by these five thousand years will project the mathematical picture of the efforts required (by Nature) to complete the task of formation of the infant body.

A quoted reference tells us how nitrogen struck the atom of oxygen, carbon, hydrogen and sulfur to produce first living substances. Very few proteins could be living out of their combination. For example, these five elements (N2, O2, C, H2, &S) rearranged in different way, can produce silk, wood and innumerable other articles.

That a life producing arrangement (such as huge systematic work requiring unimaginably highest amount of power) was born by chance, is incomprehensible to think. Such a chance if it occurs would require timeless number of years. By that time, the Universe may run out of its course.

7.6 “Purposeful” developments of single and multi-minds

Birth of a life was not by chance, but it was by definite “purpose”. How so ever the wisdom of that purpose may be questioned. In other words, the decision of “non-matter” (mind) to attach itself to matter may not be very wise, but this happening is at the instance of non-matter, (as matter can’t have a desire).

There are only three alternatives:-

                        A   God created first life.       
                        B    Chance created first life.
                        C    Non-matter attached itself to the matter.

A and B have been ruled out in the book.
 
C  Non-matter (normally called “mind”) attached itself to the matter. ---This is discussed further. We will see later that each cell has mind and a multi cellular organism has “organized mind”.

Mechanical view of Life

As a preliminary link up, we quote “Origin of life” pages 65 to 67, Russian scientist has attacked pure mechanical view. The reference says:-

1. The mistake of the mechanistic approach was that they did not differentiate between the organization of protoplasm (a colorless substance like jelly from which all animals and plants are formed.) and its structure. This was due to their hard efforts to consider the living organism in the form of material motion which is characteristic of a machine. (Not living body), i.e. they reduced this organism merely to the spatial (relating to space as a physical dimension) arrangement of the individual parts. This off-course is a one sided view, since organization must be regarded not only in point of space but also in point of time. Thus, for example we call meeting “organized” not only because its participants have seated themselves in an orderly manner but also because the speakers have kept within time limit and the reports and speeches have followed the agenda.

2. Depending upon the character of a given system either its organization in point of space or its organization in point of time comes to the fore front. In the case of machine spatial organization is most important. But we know many systems in which organization in point of time is most important.

An example of such a system is any piece of music. A symphony (long musical composition) for instance. The latter in very existence is determined by the fact that the hundreds or thousands of sounds which make it up are combined with strict regard for time. Any disruption of its harmonious unity would destroy the symphony and would lead to disharmony and chaos.

3. Structure, a definite intricate (many small parts put together in a complex way) make up is an essential element in the organization of protoplasm. However, organization in point of time, definite harmony of the process which takes place in protoplasm, is by far more important. Any organism—plant, vegetable or microbe—lives only while it continues to receive and discharge a stream of new particles of substance and of the energy which goes with it.

The organization receives from its environment diverse chemical compounds.

Inside the organism, they are subjected to various changes and transformations, as a result of which, they become the substances of the organism proper, and acquire the properties of those chemical compounds of which the living creature had previously been composed. This is known as the process of assimilation. But simultaneously with assimilation a reverse process takes place—that of dissimilation. The substances of living organism do not remain unchanged, but are decomposed more or less swiftly, and their space is taken by newly assimilated compounds, while products of decomposition are discharged in to the environment.

The simile continues…………..

Concentrate on the simile in the second stage. Symphony presupposes different musicians organized by a composer. Just above another simile of meeting mentioned, the word “organized”, insistence on the ‘time’ is not important, but what is important here is “organizer” without which organization cannot come in to being or function.

‘Earth’s primitive oceans did not possess a rational structure that fitness of its internal organization for the performance of definite living functions in the given conditions of existence which is so characteristic of the protoplasm. Thus the internal structure of the primitive ocean was adapting itself for the creation of life. This adaptation to the condition of environment could not stem merely from physical or chemical laws or from collide-chemical relations’.

Emergence of Biological laws

New laws, namely, biological laws, had to arise in the process of material evolution simultaneously with the inception of living things.

Limitations of the laws of matter

The early history of life cannot be accounted for, by laws of physics or chemistry. Somewhere laws of physics lack tenor. (Settled direction) and therefore laws of non-physics or ‘non-matter’ (i.e. mind) step in.

One or more minds in the same body

Banking on the statement cited above, the singular consideration of ‘space’ is inadequate. Non-matter occupies no space therefore there is no harm in considering one or more minds in the material frame, as required respectively in cellular or multi-cellular organisms.

Summary:

-          Birth of a life was not by chance, but it was by definite “purpose”. How so ever the wisdom of that purpose may be questioned. In other words, the decision of “non-matter” (mind) to attach itself to matter may not be very wise, but this happening is at the instance of non-matter, (as matter can’t have a desire).

-          The internal structure of the primitive ocean was adapting itself for the creation of life. This adaptation to the condition of environment could not stem merely from physical or chemical laws or from collide-chemical relations.

Desire to exist is the the basis for the origin, MIND POWER - 1



(Excerpts from book: MIND POWER (1980) CH 1 TO 6, Author - Swami Vijnananand (S.V.), Manashakti publication)




1. PREAMBLE.

Those readers who are not sure about the existence of mind, independent of matter and those who resist the idea of life after death, may refer to the books “What Mind Means' and  'Know your death” written by S.V. (The earlier  Blogs on 'What Mind Means' may also be seen). While the book (MIND POWER) deals with many diverse basic subjects of interest, one of the main purposes is to promote understanding about the role of multi-minds in the multi-cellular organism. With this understanding the reader will be able to find answers to the questions about his own mind power, which is of prime concern to him for the success and happiness in the life. The proposition of multi minds is not easy to digest. Even Swami Vijnananand (S.V.) also experienced this initially. Truth, when one understands at its turning point, at each Phase, remains stranger than fiction.

1.1  Life.

Answer to the question- ‘what is life’ still eludes us at all levels of biological organizations from nucleoprotein to level represented by virus to the level of human organism we face the impossibility of drawing a rigid boundary between life and life less. Instead of using immutable (unchangeable) qualitative category, we have a series of gradations imperceptibly (that cannot be perceived) approaching a certain boundary that cannot be truly fixed. Hence a possibility of giving a faultless answers to a question ‘what is life ‘still eludes us.

We have not found definite evidence of bio-matter equivalence. This cannot be understood by only physical, materialistic study/approach.

1.2              Free will – Acrobats of mind.

Whether the first free will is to be attributed to electron, nucleus or something else are the alternatives available. As it may be the fact that it is only a ‘reflect effect’ observed at the level of electron but concealing in a portion of nucleus or Para- nucleus state. The free will at any stage of the hierarchy is the acrobats of the mind.

1.3              Reference to the evidence of mind.

S.V. has defined mind as ‘non-matter’, or a thing which transcends the velocity of light. He has elaborately discussed this ‘non-matter’ in terms of scientific terms in his other books. On the theory of velocity of light the above books substantiate negative proof that’ non-matter ‘does exist. For this we designate the term ‘mind’ for common understanding. (Please refer Blogs on "What Mind Means")

1.4              Virus proceeds as well as terminally too they generate.

Virus is taken to be at the border line between life and lifeless. That means they should be the starting entity in the history of the life of the organism. But there is a controversy. Viruses multiply (grow many fold) only in living medium. That means the controversy spells whether virus is a first product of bio world or it is a last product? How can the first virus shoot off when life, in which it could multiply was not available?

From pulse to mind

a) S.V. elsewhere has demonstrated that the pulse variation of a human being can reasonably (believably) indicate the forecast of the probable development in the future. The pulse rate is linked with the brain through the cerebral cortex. Thus the mind (emotions) acts on body (i.e. pulse) through cerebral cortex. Thus this can be considered as a vocal dialogue between mind and matter (body).

b)  S.V. in his books (Equation of happiness and Cure without Medicine) has shown that laws of action and reaction are also applicable to the mind . When matter and mind enter into conversation through the language of emotions, the question springs up “at what stage emotions enter the living organism?” At this juncture, the very question of onset of life comes in, which is the link between matter and non-matter (mind).

c) Origin of life: Once it was thought that origin of the cell was beginning of life. But the inquiry demands further step back.

d) In this book we are tracing back the origin of life down to mind.

1.7 Later viruses for reciprocal revenge.

a)       If initial virus was a reality they should be assumed to be non-parasite, since there was no life to prey upon. Perhaps they may be benevolent as early progress needed it.

b)       Inequalities: With so called progress (original benevolence was replaced by) tendencies such as possessiveness, selfishness, aggression and ego might have cropped up, and so also cycle of revenge.

c)       Evolution: An animal kingdom progressed through higher ladders of cellular structure, multi cellular, complex organisms gained supremacy at the cost of those who lagged behind in the race. In turn those who suffered chose to exert their share of revenge, reducing them to micro world. (Bacteria, viruses etc.). In multi cellular organism, play of virus cell-minds mooted, their weaker cells were subjected to domination.

d)      The statements in this book may be accepted or rejected with reasons.

Denial of our bold hypothesis creates complications, so-called paradoxes,contradictions,leaps, unknown turned riddle some. This is because, the logical sequence, which is the outcome of radical thinking are being refused in the name of science by some dogmatists.

2.   SCIENCE IS OUR HIGHEST CLUE.

Though there is growing evidence about existence of non-matter provable in terms of science  (Please refer to earlier BLOG), the utility of science shall never end. If this (the hypothesis by S.V.) is understood in proper perspective, the unnecessary tussle between science and reality will be over. 

3.  INFERENCES FROM OLD AND NEW PHYSICS

(a) Why this discussion?

If one wants to understand, foresee to prevent and cure human ills, a blue print is required to be drawn. Approach for such a blue print becomes difficult unless we remove the kernels (outer covers) of matter i.e. unless we reach to the mind (non-matter) level of the human being. Laws of matter should have served adequately to meet all challenges of human life if mind reflected only material characteristics and would not have created the enigma (puzzles, riddles) in the behavior. Instead laws of matter have come in for troubles. Causality is often confronted (challenged).Inadequacy of inferences from ‘laws of matter’ are crying for solution. Right from medicine to philosophy there is a crop of new questions notwithstanding old answers.

We don’t feel that laws of matter have lost their utility. We consider that the reason is: Laws of matter account for only a reflex result of non-material existence behind scene. Our findings ascertain that inferences from old and new physics can be reconciled.

(b) Science is still the Rational Hope of a man.

Science is to be accepted for more than one reason.

1.      Science judicially declares its limitations whenever so demanded by the occasion.

2.      We are speaking about supra-physical character of matter. Many such proofs for the above are non-obtainable without using systematic steps of science.

3.      Science by all means is open minded. What is necessary is to expand its frontiers to accommodate the incoming truth without any subjective reservation.(prejudiced view)

4.      The need of practical life. (Leaving the discussion at higher level, in common life, science remains indispensable.)

5.      Open minded differences are allowed in science.

6.      There are a number of biologists who are of the opinion that it is not possible to give an account of how the amoeba came in to existence, its structure and his behavior as a living cell without going outside the laws of physics and chemistry. There are other biologists who have a fixed belief that such an account of living things will one day be given. However we have not got anywhere near being able to give an account of living things which is based completely on the laws of physics and chemistry.

4. BLUE PRINT OF ENQUIRY.

In order to understand life, (body + mind or matter + non-matter) objectively we need to consider four alternatives, which emerge as follows:-

4.1. Multi cellular animals and every connected cell is matter.
In this case the laws of matter unquestionably rule.

4.2. None of them is matter, while manifested matter (clearly seen) matter is a conceptual reality. Here the laws of matter will be at work at the “manifested conceptual material level,” while the analysis of mind will be on different level. (As done in this book)

4.3. Every cell has matter but the multi cellular animal has no matter.  This is redundant as in this case the individual animal does not exist at all.

4.4. Cell has no mind but the multi cellular animal has a mind.

4.5. The enquiry of cell (cell mind) opens new vistas of understanding. Man has to learn adjustment with his own self, (i.e. own cells). This will bring peace within, curtail a list of over aspiration (about wealth, fame etc.) and ameliorate (improve) relationship with the people with whom he lives. Indeed the further life shall be the waiting award.

5.  ORGANISING MIND TO CELL MIND.

We trail the way to the breath taking mind or the organized mind or to the so called individual mind and try to establish its relationship with the cell empire.

Hypothesis: - Organized mind, when it gets formed.

5.1 The animal’s existence in this world starts with the conception of male (father) and female (mother). Thus the organized mind, which we hypothesize, steps up through the cell twin provided by father and mother.

We then conceive various other steps.

Organized mind sets in for its selfish motives, (Desire to take birth).

Weaker, half willing, dormant cell shells (shell- the outward appearance of a person’s character) are over powered for selfish ends on both sides (i.e. from father and mother’s sides). i.e. The material part of the cells from father and mother is used by the ‘to be born child’s mind’ to get the bodily existence in the mother’s body.
  
5.2 Duplication.

Duplication of similar selfishly motivated cells from conception till birth takes place in the womb.

5.3 Defective growth.

When the “ organized mind “  fails to collect sufficient or proper (quality of) cell minds, the outcome is the birth of an imbalanced personality at physical level, psychic level or at both the levels.

5.4 Paradox of “life”

Life begins. That is living together of paradoxical interests (of the cell minds and organized mind). The process of moving in a specified direction continues secretly and quickly.

5.5 Multi-layeredness of mind.

Inherent in this theory multi-layer ness of life (minds) is obvious. That is what we see internally, externally materially and immaterially. (How and When is explained in this book and other books of S.V.)

5.6 Way out: Know. Adjust. Be justly equanimous, (Cool tempered).

6.  HYPOTHETICAL THEORY NEEDS PROOF.

For those hypothetical necessary conditions (postulates) to be reasonably proved at the theoretical level, we need evidence on the following points
.
6.1 Mind is independent of matter.(Link to What Mind Means)
6.2 “organized mind “exists in an individual.
6.3 Overlapped mind and multi-layer ness.
6.4 Paradoxical “living “together.
6.5 Our interpretation of views.
6.6 Our interpretation of relief.

The detailed description and evidence about the above requirements is given in further chapters of the book MIND POWER.

Summary:

-          The book attempts to explain in details the origin of life on the earth. DESIRE is the function of MIND. Only matter can’t desire. When ‘matter’ joined the ‘mind’, the desire of ‘existence’ of mind got fulfilled and the ‘LIFE’ originated on the earth.  

-          Though the ‘CELL’ was the first life on the earth, the logical pre-forms of life would be the COASERVATE and VIRUS.

-          Once a single cell life came in to being, the desire to exist and exist with comfort led to the formation of multi-cell lives. The same desire continues in the process of further evolution till the advanced species of human evolved.

-          Mind enters into conversation with the body through ‘emotions’. Then the next question is at what stage emotions entered into living organism? Here one reaches to the origin of life on earth which is the first link between the mind (non-matter) and the body (matter).

-          This logical hypothesis be accepted or rejected with valid reasons. The dogmatic approach of rejecting would result in creating complications in terms of so many paradoxes, unknowns and riddle-some aspects which are prevailing in the field of science.

-          The blue print to foresee and prevent the human ills cannot be drawn unless we reach the non-matter level of human being i.e. mind. We just can’t restrict to the materialistic approach. The laws of Physics and Chemistry are not adequate to understand the science of life.

-          Book MIND POWER tries to trace the journey of life from matter to the first cell and then from multi-cells to the evolution up to the advent of human being emphasizing the role played by the ‘desire’ which is the exclusive property of the ‘mind’.
