PHYSICS AND SUPERSTITIOUS MOTHER


good morning mummy....breakfast ready...(then i looked at wall clock) !but its just 7 now??
she said.."first take bath,it was grahan (eclipse) yesterday" (in our hindu mythology,we are bound to some stupidity like this!)..and this statement was something so weird that my nerves went high,and i started explaining her that it was in eclipse when scientists proved that its not necessary for light to travel in a straight line!
and this is the difference that we people take bath and wash our brain,if the moon comes in between eatrh and sun,then whats your problem .i mean it does not make a sense.....
watever!she didnt care and i dint get food until i took bath...
2nd may,2011..how can i forget this day,it was my birthday and my mother was forcing me to go temple with her,actually these things does not make a sense to me??i refused to go,and then.....came the explanations  about why i could not do well in 1st year and many such negatives were coined,and the reason was "this evil is happening just coz god is not happy with you,since you are making such statements"...,and some more astrology accompanied with insanity was successful to persuade me to go to temple....
and now its my turn to show some physics,i asked her why you offer milk to idols??have he asked u that he want (something which has amino acids,4%protein,4.8% lactose)..??the basic constituent of matter is energy(vice-versa true),which is in form of vibrations,so everything is made up of those vibrating energies,its just that a specific arrangement of those packets makes it atom of carbon,oxygen.....
so he wont mind if you offer water(and it would be cheap as well),i mean he wont say that "no i want this set of vibrations(which yields amino acids)"
and she dint get anything.........poor me!

  1. And the funny thing is that all those things that you do not believe in now after 35-40 years, can seem pretty comforting and by that time you would have discovered that though all matter is packets of energy, the virbations of god look at the vibrations of your heart ....:)

  4. this is something many people believe in.there are some things even physics cannot explain.and i have come across many who diss astrology without knowing it is actually a science.it is the study of planets,the universe,the energies you talk about.
    i do not believe in rituals or traditional superstitions.though we all have superstitions.there is something you do or don't do before an exam or a cricket match you really want india to win..so on..every one have their personal belief system.
