Do we need to ask for Change?

Change seems to be indefinable. It is an inevitable, continuous process like a high speed river, flowing down the mountain. When I read about people asking for change or praying to GOD to send some savior to help the mankind in changing the world, I feel how ignorant or gullible are these people. Change can never be brought or it can never be stopped. It is out of the will of any living or non living thing.

But why and how change occurs? We, humans, have come into existence just a few seconds ago, if we calibrate the time period of existence of whole Universe into a single day. There were thousands of civilizations which had lived on this earth before us. There were thousands of species which use to dominate this planet in past but are now extinct. There will be a day when even we, humans will be eliminated from the face of the earth as a process of change. Change is brought into play when the purpose of the entity, for which it came into existence, is completed. Change occurs to remove monotony in Mother Nature. Status quo can never be maintained indefinitely. 

According to the recently discovered String Theory in Physics, the whole Universe is made up of a smallest particle known as String. When these Strings vibrate, they exhibit different melodies and these melodies acts as different properties of matter. The vibrations of different strings are never same. They vibrate randomly, generating unique melodies over different time frames. So the different time-frames have different form of matter coming into existence.

What was the exact purpose of this entity which came into existence during a particular time-frame is one question which has never been answered accurately. Everything answered in this respect are assumptions and observations. Some answers may lead to spirituality while others may be close to science but none is self explanatory.

Is Change always positive? There is an anomaly when we compare change to a free flowing river. Change has no particular direction, unlike a river which always flows from top to bottom. Thus, in simple terms, change can even defy gravity, if it requires. We cannot modify the nature of change as it suits to us. Every change brings positive as well as negative aspects along with it. We definitely have to deal with negative changes simultaneously enjoying the positive ones.

Change can never be brought but change brings you to this world. Change can never be good or bad. Change never discriminates on the basis of region, religion, caste, sex, language, etc. My suggestion to the people fighting to bring change is that it is not you who want the change to occur. It’s an inevitable process which is using you as a medium to get its work done. I don’t think we need to ask for change. It will already be there the next time when we will wake up in the morning. Whether it will be good or bad, this can’t be said but it will be there, definitely!

Master Of Time

From the time immemorial, Human race has been fighting a war against time. By the beginning of 21st century, it appears that the war seems to have been conquered. This have been achieved by the progress of immense technological advances. For now! at-least, Humans can call themselves as Master of Time, until unless, Time shows up something extreme, which shakes the very foundations of human civilization, again, as history has shown in the past. Now is the time when it seems that everything is in human control, from the weather to the agriculture, from population to the wild-life and all that which could have been dreamed off in the past. The technology has helped human race immensely in achieving this marvel.
Today, we can plan big projects and hope that they can be completed within the time frame. We can think of billions of dollars in investments in these projects as majority of the work is taken care of by technology. Computers have helped humans to solve the biggest calculations in minimal time frame. We have Super fast cars and bikes to travel hundreds of miles in few hours. We can call our friends and relatives, thousands of miles away and can converse with them for hours discussing small arguments to big projects. This all is achieved only due to human aspiration to conquer the time and achieve everything very shortly and in small time. Today every Human being want his work to be done in brink of a second.

How this all is achieved? Is this an over night work? Definitely, NO. Human Race, from past thousands of civilizations, have improved bit by bit to reach this level of excellence and is still working on it. We have the ability to improve ourselves over the time which is the biggest gift bestowed upon living beings by the Mother Nature. This ability has helped Human race to achieve the goals it has set for itself over thousands of years. Another quality, which helped humans, was to pass on information gathered in their life time to next civilization, which helped in understanding the difficulties and problems of previous civilization and to work on them, to overcome these difficulties and problems.
In the  middle of 20th century, the biggest invention in human history changed everything as how we see the World today. This invention was the transistor chip, a semiconductor device which proved the living cell for the electronics and digital devices of present time. This chip is present everywhere from computers to clocks to calculators to cars to satellites and in almost anything we can see around us. It helped us pay our bills, book our movie tickets, transfer money to our relatives or friends, buy our pizzas in just click of a second. This invention proved our biggest ally in our fight against time.

Today Humans are still fighting with the time to retain their newly earned lordship and this fight is entering a new arena which includes projects like Time Travel and Teleportation to name a few. This dominion can continue only if human race can persist its zeal to conquer Time in all its wars against time. Will the Humans be able to continue as the Masters of Time, is one question which is very difficult to answer with the type of resources available and seeing the past historical records of this conflict.
