Ok friends this is the continuation of the first article in the series.
As I mention that India has a great cultural heritage in forms of Vedas, Upanishads, Epic Poems like Ramayana and Mahabharata, The great works of Kalidasa as Kumarsambhavam, vikramorvashiyam.Great literary works by later writers in sanskrit, pali, prakrit, hindi and awadhi languages. The works just didn’t have literary importance but were of great virtue for betterment of society and science.
The Hundu Mythology (and many other contemporary ones) talk of the trinity, The three GODs or the three Supreme Ones. I wondered that an atom also consists of three major parts. Now I will try to get some comparison on the trinity of religion and the trinity of atom
1.Brahma– The Creator
When a chemical reaction takes place new bonds are formed by either transfer or sharing of electrons.(GEEKY!) Similarly Brahma is called as the Creator. Scientist have been working on the theory of one electron (they say that there is only one electron in the whole universe which moves in inter-dimensional space and time. ) which has a relation to ‘Ek Brahm”
(i.e. one soul) theory of Hindu Mythology. Scientist haven’t agreed upon it because this theory would lead to the failure of theories proposed for many physi
cal phenomena. The Electron has a very less mass and Brahma is not worshiped in Hindu Mythology except for the few Brahma Temples, at Pushkar Astotra and other places including Bangkok and Java.
2.Vishnu-The Protector.
The Proton has positive charge on it and thus holds the atom from getting scattered. Lord Vishnu also protects life on Earth.Vishnu have taken many forms on Earth as proton take part in reactions to give other sub-atomic particles such as neutrinos etc. Strange similarities. Proton is further broken down to three quarks which symbolize the Sheshnag, Sudarshan Chakra and the Lotus.
3.Shiv-The destroyer.
Shiva is called as the destroyer in some scriptures while he is also treated as the protector in some other ones. Neutrons take part in the chain reaction and can cause great destruction with the nuclear bombs. While to balance the mass of the atom Neutrons are very necessary.
The concept of Antimatter is also described in form of Dev-Asura Sangram. There is much more you can find. The matter described is solely my thinking you may disagree upon it. Its upto you readers what you think is Right or Wrong! But Mythology does relate to science, whether scientists accept it or not.
This brings me to break this chain here! In the next part I promise there will be some science and mathematical proofs!
Enjoy Reading! Adios! Wait for the next one!
