On Macro and Micro I had written already on mahat Bhutham amd another some
time ago; so thought of cosmas :
The Micro and Macro worlds (COSMOLOGY)
Oldest cosmological considerations do not refer to any specific kind of
celestial bodies) preceded and many will follow our Earth in time. Also, in
present time there are many other "earths" of the same significance for the
Universe as that of ours. On the other hand, the Earth is not something
average either in its location in space or time or in respect to its inner
qualities. No average values can be arrived at when differences between
objects tend to infinity.
The ancient Indians left some concepts about the structure of the
neighbourhood of the Earth (e.g. the familiar picture of the Earth resting
on a great turtle), but they left no overall system of the Universe as
such. In ancient Indian documents nothing can be found that could be called
a model of the Universe as a whole. When we grasp the content of their
cosmological principle, we can see that it is not incidental. No
mathematical model of the Universe involving the Ancient Indian
Principle can be constructed even now, since
mathematics have not yet developed any tools to deal with the notion of
infinite heterogeneity. The development of the newly elaborated theory of
fractals tends to this direction, but the heterogeneity that theory is able
to deal with is still
too limited. Cosmology based on fractal structure of the Universe is still
far from the ancient Indian outlook.
An Indian sage from many thousands years ago would say to the
contemporary cosmologist: “the
Universe is much too complicated to be put into those primitive
mathematical formulae of yours. Perhaps further developments in mathematics
will make it possible to calculate a model of the Universe concordant with
the Cosmological Principle of Ancient India. But at present, without
resorting to models and strict calculations, we can imagine a picture, or
rather a number of different pictures of such a Universe, infinitely
self-different at every point. Everything that is plausible comes to be
realized somewhere in it. But still, it is Cosmos, not Chaos, and the
highest order and beauty govern it. Of course, this is just one of many
historical cosmological principles. It has
fewadherents nowadays (e.g. in connection with the Anthropic
Principle, seeChapter
6), but its importance in the development of cosmological ideas is
considerable. One can at 1east suspect, if not prove, that it influenced
the cosmological ideas of some philosophers of ancient Greece. And when
Nicolas of Cusa revealed his view that the fabric of the world has its
center everywhere and its circumference nowhere, we cannot be sure if this
was a far echo of the Indian Principle or a precursor of the modern,
Copernican, mode of thinking about the Universe or, perhaps, both. The
comparison of this oldest known cosmological principle with contemporary
principles shows major differences but some close similarities as well.
The content of the Cosmological Principle of Ancient India, as
expressed in contemporary terms, is still of use in contemporary cosmology.
This brings some people to the conclusion that the method used in those
times can find an application nowadays. The great sages of ancient India
did not think about the world
in logical terms nor was their approach to reality based on "purefeelings,"
if we are to understand the term feelings in its contemporary sense. We
could rather say that they "participated in the world through internal and
external experiences." After this most remote style of world perception,
many others followed, each connected with another epoch
of human evolution.
The contemporary way of approaching reality, called science, has its
roots in the works of Greek mathematicians like Euclid (306-283 B.C.) but
developed
only in the Renaissance era. Galileo Galilei (1564-1642 A.D.) is usually
considered the founder of science. Gradually people learned to perceive the
world with logical thinking and with full control of their
self-consciousness. (That was the overall tendency but many scholars did
not reach that stage.) Every epoch has its own manner of approaching
reality and contributes its achievements to the overall development of
humanity and general knowledge. We would not have science in its
contemporary form if the ancient Rishis in India did not exist once upon a
time, if the Persian, Egyptian, Chaldean, Greek and Medieval scholars did
not make their contributions. The results stay; the styles of epochs
change. Of course, it is still possible, with great endeavour, not only to
understand an approach to the reality of great personalities of past
epochs, but even to follow their footsteps, to imitate their inner
spiritual mode and their ways of striving for truth. Such attempts are
quite popular at present, and the epoch of ancient India is the favourite
one for such experiments. Whoever does this is, at best, reproducing old
results but in no way contributing anything new to science. It is useless
to discuss which epoch of human development was better or which
comprehended reality in the most intrinsic way. I am far from claiming that
the contemporary scientific world view reveals to us more important aspects
of existence than that of ancient India. Whoever is not too fond of
contemporary ideas has the full right to revive ancient outlooks but should
not pretend to be a scientist in the true sense.
These remarks are certainly trivial but by no means superfluous.
Someamateur astronomers and other laymen practicing science send
letters to
observatories and scientific societies with results of their investigations
that are based or most often appear to be based on beliefs and concepts
proceeding along the same lines of those prevailing in ancient times.
I myself have received for reviewing no less than a hundred "scientific"
papers of that sort. In most cases, no other objections could be raised
against them other than that they were late by several thousands of years.
