MIRAGE


Whats miracle??????????
Most of us might have encountered miracles, in the past or in future.... ofcourse in different ways, few recognisible .... for few, miracle is just a mere coincident, but if you ask me, I would put it this way,
" Miracle is an extension in time and space".
But one point is still uncertain, why is that people associate miracle only with pleasent happenings....I mean if miracle is something without nothing, then why cant it be for other gruesome events in our life.., well I am still sceptical abt its happening...
If you wanna still escavate abot this, read this..

A miracle can be defined as an event contrary to, but not a violation of, a law of nature. If 'violation' is not being used in a technical sense, then a miracle can still be described as a violation of a law of nature - where 'violation' would mean something like "contrary to what could have happened had nature been the only force operative." An event may be contrary to a law of nature without thereby invalidating it, if non-natural forces cause it. This follows from the fact that laws of nature do not describe, nor are they intended to describe, the logically possible. They only describe the physically possible. Even if the laws of nature were logically necessary, there could be events contrary to those laws if it is assumed that the scope of those laws is limited. Apart from belief in miracles, one is left with a system of beliefs that has had and will continue to have enormous significance - good and bad - for people's lives. However, for the majority of persons for whom these beliefs have that significance, religion could no longer function in the way it does if they became convinced of the falsity of their beliefs. What one is practicing may be similar in significant respects to the religious tradition, but one will not be practicing that religion, nor will one properly be regarded as a believer. Prayers are empowered by a clear mind and heart, and purity of intention. With clarity, our consciousness aligns with higher consciousness, where the forces of nature and laws of creation operate according to divine order.

"Those things are properly called miracles which are done by divine agency beyond the order commonly observed in nature ( praeter ordinem communiter observatum in rebus )." A miracle, metaphysically speaking, is never a mere coincidence - no matter how extraordinary or significant. If you miss a plane and the plane crashes, that is not a miracle unless God intervened in the natural course of events causing you to miss the flight! A miracle is a supernaturally (divinely) caused event - an event (ordinarily) different from what would have occurred in the normal ('natural') course of events. It is a divine overriding of, or interference with, the natural order. As such, it need not be extraordinary, marvelous or significant, and it must be something other than a coincidence, no matter how remarkable - unless the 'coincidence' itself is caused by divine intervention (i.e., not really a coincidence at all). Miracles, however, are ordinarily understood to be not just products of divine intervention in the natural order, but extraordinary, marvelous and significant as well. Thus, Aquinas says a miracle is "beyond the order commonly observed" and Dr. Eric Mascall says that the word 'miracle' signifies in Christian theology a striking interposition of divine power by which the operations of the ordinary course of nature are overruled, suspended, or modified. Technically speaking miracles are not violations of such laws but instead are positive instances of those laws. This is because laws of nature do not, and are not meant to, account for or describe events with supernatural causes - but only those with natural causes. Once some event is assumed to have a supernatural cause it is, by that very fact, outside the scope of laws of nature altogether and so cannot violate them. Only if one disregards the possibility of supernatural causes, can known exceptions to laws possibly be regarded as violations of laws. However, in such a case there might be better reason to suppose that the exception simply shows what was taken to be a law is not really a law, rather than, the exception is a violation of a genuine law of nature. If a miracle is not a violation of a law of nature, then how is it to be defined in relation to laws of nature?

These are my all time favourites………
Music
I am not into much of pop , jazz, rock. I prefer low beats songs,(the less the beat is , the more my frontal lobe is activated). One more thing, if the beat frequency is between 6-10 cycles per seconds, the more it will be conductive to permeate in the alpha state of mind. In fact there are four states of mind, alpha , beta, delta and gamma The alpha state of mind is best suitable for learning purposes. So I suggest all of you, to listen more of instrumental kind of music. You don’t have to glue to English music, to device this, you can listen to our own carnatic and Hindustani music, whose gamut runs from all ragas, alapas. You might just acquaint yourselves to the one which are resonant with your vibes. Well that’s all about traditional genre.
Jumping in to the contemporary stuff, nothing can beat the compositions of his genius,
A.R.Rehman. Oh man, he is awesome. I shall list a few of my fav. You can listen them.

Cuisine.
My gastronomic diversity includes all varieties of sweets( Bengali). Few north and south Indian Dishes. Well I haven’t given an opportunity to my taste buds to enjoy the western food( Who knows if the taste lingers on, I will have to have it frequently , and my calorie count will pop up suddenly, and to alleviate that, I need again a strategy to axe my calories).
I might not be that diet conscious as I claim to be.

Books.
Though not a voracious reader, I am always keen towards the brain aspects kind of articles. I am not fictious( In the sense, I haven’t read a novel till now…….. wait if I am not wrong I remember reading David Copper field and Goose bumps ).
I like to browse thru little meditational stuff. This might include mindfulness also. Mindfulness is meditation in action. Though not a regular practitioner of meditation, I am interested in reading about it. In fact those who practice Unbroken Bramhacharya for 12 long years, according to Swami Vivekananda will attain his level of enlightenment( I know most of us wont accomplish it, due to existing life style). Most of you who are reading this at this instant may be practicing Mindfulness subconsciously, without the awareness of this conscious mind, becoz, you are all concentrating on what you do.

Well the so called homosapiens or human being , stand a class apart from other living species because of their amazing brain power. Yes , Human beings are the most intellectually developed species( in fact to count the number of neurons in our brain , you need 3700 years), so one can imagine the innate capacity of this extraordinary organ(Salaam Brain).
But its sad , since gratifyingly large number of people are prone to neurological disorders like the most prominent one’s like Schizophrenia, Alzheimer’s Disease to less intensity ones like dementia, amnesia, aphasia, amusia, neurosis….( I shall consult a neuro surgeon and will try to list more). So in this world of high profile, high magnitude jobs, which banks on brain power, its necessary to revamp our brains daily with soothing incentives like good music, yoga, meditation, aerobic exercises(which apart from regulating our cardio vascular system , improvises our nervous system by increasing the blood supply)., sports.


One more thing, the studies reveal that( I don’t know the percentage accuracy of this statement, it seems that knowingly or unknowingly, 50% of our time i.e nearly ½ of our time excluding our daily activities mean in the work place, school or college, is wasted, that is u r not working towards it, the reason is significant , becoz every one needs a modicum of excitement in their lives, it applies to all of them in this world without sparing the professors from top universities of the world , to CEO’s, PM, scientists…..). Why, even you who is reading this is doing the same thing. So I suggest you all to do this.
Friends
Yeah, I have a network of good friends.
Fav TV shows
Hmmmmmmmm, the super natural(paranormal) shows titillates me.

Ok then , if you have reached summit of saturation with this creed, then I wont blow a fuse any more for all these are my favourites……….
