We are living in this universe is just a feeling of a living being. It may not be the reality.We are living on the solid surface of the earth and can look upward and sideways further makes us feel that can have an objective outlook to our surroundings. But we are like a fish with the limitation to never come over to the surface of the sea. It is absolutely not right on the part of the fish to conclude that it is living in an infinite sea because it has never swimmed to the surface. The physical laws applicable in the liquid world of the fish will fail as soon as she comes out of the water. The law holding water into the sea is an extension of some bigger law which can be realised only by a better brain than a fish and who has essentially experienced the truth inside the water as well as out of it.
Our so understood objectivity has pushed us more into the quagmire of fallacies. We are like an ant inside a football with a constant feeling of being outside the football. We always feel that we are always standing on our legs with our head always upward. In the larger scheme that seems to be hardly true.
And we are searching the theory of every thing. We have developed our own mathematics for some practical purpose and some great ( in our own way) laws of physics to know the ultimate truth. Einstein was not sure of the infinite nature of the universe but had no doubt about the fact that our stupidity is infinite.
There is no theory of everything, at least for us. At the same time we are doomed to keep searching the same. Lets us therefore enjoy the search, till we die. Its infinite fun. |
