Prerogative of Human Body

 
The Bhagavad-gita says that, out of many thousands of people, someone may develop this reasoning power: “Why am I suffering?” We do not want to suffer, but suffering is forced upon us. We do not want too much heat or cold, but too much cold and too much heat are forced upon us. We do not want thirst, hunger, old age, disease and death. The real problems of life are birth, old age, disease and death. But nobody is free from all these sufferings in this world.
Everyone is full of anxiety despite increasing material comforts, economic development and scientific advancement. The Western countries have reached the summit of material civilization, but people are still dissatisfied. The government has difficulty controlling crime, drug addiction, adultery etc. When the civilization becomes godless and human beings are geared towards a rat race for money and sex, life becomes hellish.

Darwins Black Box

 
In 1996 Michael J Behe, a professor of biology at Lehigh University in America, shocked the scientific world with his international best seller “Darwin’s Black Box.” Voted one of the 100 most influential books of the twentieth century, it describes the amazing biological world found within the cell. 150 years ago when Darwin published his “Origin of Species” it was thought the cell was a simple blob of protoplasm, an array of elements brought together by natural forces. 150 years later, through electron microscopes and x-ray crystallography, the “box” has been opened and scientists are now investigating a whole lilliputnian world of nanotechnology.
