"Nature is my first love..."though it sounds a bit 'out of fashion' statement for an environment like Delhi Public School, VK and for such a tender age,but has its roots deep in my observation and experience of the world.
To prepare for JEE, I took coaching at LOCUS Institute and in the fourth lecture of our physics class we were taught "MOTION IS RELATIVE".the very first question that came to my mind was 'so whats absolute?'and my stupid mind took it so seriously that i started looking for this 'absolute'in every possible thing i could.Be it people or their opinions regarding various matters,or be it my own thoughts,which i myself contradicted every now and then,this "absolute" thing never actually found its expression anywhere.
Thanx to the lush green environment of DPS,VK and to my friends with whom every evening i used to go for a walk, that i gradually realised that this 'nature' was my "soul's solace",my absolute. Though in a strict scientific sense even nature isn't absolute,but yes considering a human being's life span it can be considered as absolute,see even to mark things absolute we need to see things relatively..:P..
Anyways this was not the only fate of that statement.Perceptions in my philosophical world related to this "relativity of motion" in physics because once again both are NOT ABSOLUTE. It was at this juncture that my physics and philosophy were binded together by threads of my thoughts.But,alas life wasn't that simple always..for my life it was a dark phase but for my soul,an enlightening one. I grew more and more spiritual in my approach without loosing on my scientific pace and now as i stand today i see my philosophical,my scientific,my spiritual worlds all reside in me "in peace"...
But amidst all this,figuring out my own life,finding for a reason for everything that happened,it really leaves me ecstatic to know that it was ancient greek who made the first ever systematic attempt to establish some sort of common grounds for belief.Also when this book "mind of god" by Paul Davies asks what is absolutely constant,is it 'logic','number','soul','god', i silently say to myself.."its the soul"..and a part of it is 'my soul'..
