‘What’s the proof?’
Every time I say something to my friends, they ask me this. It’s kind of become a phrase to tell that they don’t believe what someone says. Me, I am an engineering student and have to answer this swali often. But, what irritates me is that people don’t even wait for an answer. Years back, I had thought proofs are only needed in math and physics. But today, even if wewe wanted to share some fact with your friends, wewe need that p-thing.
‘I was caught red-handed while I tried to bunk my classes,’ I alisema to one of my Marafiki with a steaming cup of coffee in my hands.
He merely shrugged his shoulders and smiled from ear to ear. ‘Well, what’s the proof? I see that your hands are not red?’
People are always like this. Right from the official looking seminar halls, till the bench lots in a petty shop, wewe can see people asking for proofs. ‘If wewe have any proof for what wewe say, now is the time to produce it,’ alisema my girlfriend.
Well, I didn’t say anything complicated. It was just, ‘I upendo you.’
Ever since Science started to dominate our society, every human mind had grown cynical. We don’t believe anything so easily. Well, except if someone says that he saw a Zombie in your backyard. May be that’s why, the sci-fi films in India flounders. We are not ready to imagine anything, although Einstein said, ‘Imagination is zaidi important that knowledge.’ But, wewe can see that the power of imagining things has become one of the mightiest raw materials for making money. How do wewe think Harry Potter and Twilight hit the jackpot?
Questions, of course, lead to answers. And open up new doors. We started asking maswali boldly after Galileo alisema something that defended the very basic philosophy of the church. Religion, he said, blind-folds human potentialities. Atheists who came later complained that God is restricting the true power of humanity.
‘God is the symbol of all the mysteries in life that we could not understand,’ alisema Dan Brown in his final installment. Science and God are two different terminologies that lead to the same answer. If wewe ask for proof for this, I sure as heck have one. Every latest discovery that’s been made in science is only a rediscovery. The entanglement theory had been already known as Brahma in Hinduism. The simple concept of polarity had been already explained kwa Krishna. Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle already exists in Upanishads. There’s proof that early mystics had been aware of the super-string theory of the Universe.
History repeats itself…
It’s taken so long to understand that we’ve been traveling in a circle, only to discover that we have arrived to the same point where we started once. We’re at the brink of evolution. This is the time we evolve from information seeking wanyama to information generating wanyama – in short – God!
The created… becoming the creator!
Well, now wewe ask me, ‘what’s the proof?’
Well, I don’t know, time alone can answer that!
