Natural Evolution In Our Thought Processes In Spirituality

The natural evolutionary process is a continuous process. We do not realize it since it is very slow in the relation of human lifespan on the earth, but it is going on its pace at this moment also, it is happening everywhere, it is happening in-universe, it is happening on the planet, and it is happening right there inside our body. Every moment in our body many cells are taking birth, and many cells are dying, we have discussed it earlier that how this process is kept on going in our body every moment. Our thought processes are also like this natural mechanism; it keeps on generating thoughts, positive thoughts, negative thoughts, critical thoughts, etc. Our brain is like a factory of thoughts, where all kind of thought processes keep on working to generate thought 24 hours a day, even when we are sleeping our brain keep on creating thoughts which appeared us in the forms of our dreams.

Why does it happen? How is it possible that a process taking millions and millions of year get repeated within a few months or years? The answer is in our DNA. The coding in human DNA also went through the same process of evolution to come in present coding. So, we have the swift repetition of a long evolutionary process completed within a few months and years. In the evolutionary process, a simple biological system developed into a complex and more intelligent one.

Our thought process also goes through the same process of evolutionary development. We have discussed it in the previous chapter how the biological and physiological development of our brain occurs during our life cycle. From the start of our life in embryonic life to adulthood, like every other organ and their functionality, our brain, and its thought process also follow the same sequence of evolutionary development from simple thoughts of basic needs to maintain life to complex ideas of spirituality and self-actualization.

The famous English naturalist and scientist Charles Darwin published a ‘Theory Of Natural Selection’ in his book ‘Origin Of Species’ in 1859. This theory changes the existing concepts of development of life at that time which includes the divine design (origin of life by God or some supernatural power) and extraterrestrial origin of life. Our understanding of the creation of life and evolution of life in the present complex form on earth took new shape. This theory is also referred as Darwinism. According to this theory evolution of species occurs through a natural biological process from simple to complex, and only those species survived which developed themselves according to their environment, which cannot do that, they extinct. Later on, with many breakthrough research in molecular biology and genetics leads to the modern synthesis theory of the origin of life and development in the early 20^th century, which revived Darwinism in an updated form with scientific investigations and experiments.

These scientific facts helped in our understanding of life and its existence on earth. It also enabled us to improve our social and cultural development processes. Naturally, our thought process which created the concepts of humanity and human values also develop through the sequences of natural evolutionary mechanism, from simple to complex one. It is our brain, and it's different amazing thought processes which gave us an extra edge in our survival as a human race which has developed the extraordinary capabilities of consciousness and intelligence.

Spiritual Thought Process

Our brain is the amazing organ in our body, this about three pounds has the amazing capacity to learn, to store and to create different kinds of thought processes, made up of trillions of neurons and their synapses (connections between different neurons). Our brain and it's all thought processes are the results of millions of years natural evolutionary developmental process, which put the human beings on the top of the animal kingdom. All of our thought processes are the result of complex biochemical reactions in our brain, all of them are controlled by our DNA. This miracle molecule is a double helix structure and makes our genes. Our DNA also passed through the same natural evolutionary developmental process of millions of years to what we have today in our genes. All of our thought processes are controlled by our highly developed coding of human DNA. The spiritual thought process is the highly developed thought process of our brain. It has to control and regulating chara

Concepts Of Positive Energy In Our Thought Processes

#SpiritualHealth Energy is the universe and universe is energy. We can understand it with this simple scientific logic that each and every object living or non-living is made of atoms, and atoms are made up of many subatomic particles, if we peek inside those atoms we will find different strata of energy spinning around a nucleus, we call it atomic energy. It is not possible for the universe to exist without energy. Similarly, life is energy. Plants store energy from the sun and pass it to food chain which runs the life in the animal kingdom. From the strict laws of physics, energy cannot be divided into the categories of positive energy and negative energy, but we have positive and negative impact of energy on our health, social and cultural life. So, that energy which have good results for our health and life, we call it positive energy and if it is adverse then we call it as negative energy. We can understand it with a simple example, suppose somebody run for a distance to d

From The Upcoming Book "Spiritual Health" (Coming Very Soon)

Our brain is a fantastic organ in our body. Through the process of development, it has developed in the present form. It took millions and millions of years in this process of evolution and development to make us human beings where it put us apart from other animals, and make us unique in the whole animal kingdom, where we have acquired the enormous power to influence and alter the nature. In this process, the unique thought process of our brain is the driving force behind our actions and behavior at the individual level, at the community level, at our country level, at the global level and finally at the universal level. Our thought processes make the basic building blocks of our comprehensive thought process which we call humanity and human values. At some point in time, we start asking a question to ourselves about our existence, about our ‘ self,' about the purpose of our life, about our universe and its beginning and end, about death, what happens after

Diwali In Our Spiritual Thought Process

Today is 'diwali'. Diwali is for the word 'Deepawali' meaning line of lamps 'दीप '. We have many mythological stories behind the reasons to celebrate it, we all know them, one very interesting one is that it was celebrated by the people in ancient Ayodhya, the capital of Lord Rama, when he returned back after exile of fourteen years, after defeating Ravana, the demon king. Apart from this there are some other stories as well, but the above mentioned story is the most famous among the people. Here we are going to discuss regarding the human thought process behind the festivities and festivals. The most interesting and amazing organ in our body is our brain and its thought processes make it very interesting and versatile, since it is our different thought processes which control our conscious mind and intelligence. All our thought processes are the result of very complex reactions of biochemicals and neurotransmitters in our brain. Human brain and human thou

Merry Christmas And Happy New Year From Spiritual Health

Our religious occasions like Deepawali, Ied, Christmas, Guru Parva and all such events in all religions are the reflection of the underlying spiritual thought process in our religious thought processes. These festive occasions are based on the fundamental teachings of humanity and human values in the base of our religion and belief system. Festivals (both religious and cultural) create a lot of positive thinking and positive energy among a large population. Every religion or belief will have some spiritual component. When this spiritual element is amalgamated with specific rituals, ideas, and practices, it becomes a religion. Religion is the byproduct of the social, psychological and cultural developmental process of human beings. Throughout the history of human development, we created some ways to live and make our life happy by recognizing our spiritual needs; we call them religion. Every religion has a spiritual base; it is not possible to conceptualize a religion without spiri

Evolutionary Journey of Spiritual Thought Process and Spirituality

Development of human brain started with the appearance of the neural plate (a group of cells) at around 7nth week of embryonic life. We can call it as our primitive brain, then it forms a neural tube and finally into our brain, brainstem and spinal cord in the third trimester of our embryonic life we have a well-formed brain and spinal cord. Studies have shown that our human learning process started in the womb of mother before birth. Interestingly our brain follows the same evolutionary mechanism from the primitive brain to the most complex human brain, as we have in our evolutionary history. The only difference is that it took only nine months in the womb to complete a process which took millions and millions of years on the natural evolutionary timeline. It happens because of the codings in our DNA in our genes, again which took millions of years to develop into human DNA. Every thought process in our brain is because of complex biochemical reactions and movement of ions in ce

आध्यात्मिकता एवं दीपावली,

हम आध्यात्मिक सोच को इस उदाहरण से समझ सकते हैं। हम सभी ने दीवाली मनाई, हम सब खुश हुए इसका हमारे स्वास्थ्य पर अच्छा असर हुआ। लेकिन इस खुशी में हमने पटाखे जलाये, अत्यधिक शोर मचाया, इससे प्रदूषण हुआ, इसका हमारे स्वास्थ्य पर बुरा असर हुआ, कुछ बीमार लोग हमारी खुशी मनाने के तरीकों से बहुत परेशान हुए, पशुओं को पटाखों के शोर से बहुत परेशानी हुई। इस वास्तविकता में हम दो विचारों से रूबरू हुए। पहला विचार - हमें पटाखे नहीं फोड़ने चाहिए, क्योंकी ये पर्यावरण को, हमारे स्वास्थ्य को एवं बीमार लोगों को नुकसान करता है। दूसरा विचार - दीवाली हमारा त्योहार है, ये पटाखों की एवं शोर की बात दीवाली में ही क्यों उठती है, अन्य लोग भी ऐसे शोर मचाते हैं, पटाखे छोड़ते हैं, तब तो पर्यावरण की चिंता नहीं करते। इन दोनों विचारों में निश्चित तौर पर पहला विचार दूसरों के हित से जुड़ा है, मतलब मानवीय है। जबकि दूसरा विचार आत्मकेंद्रित है, जिसमे हम अपने कार्य को, ये अच्छी तरह से जानते हुए भी कि, ये किसी भी तरह से हमारे स्वास्थ्य के लिए एवं मानवता के लिए ठीक नहीं है, उसको सही शिद्ध करने को आतुर हैं। अतः पहला विचार आध्यात्मिक

Spiritual Journey Of A Doctor, A Thought On The Occasion Of This Doctors Day.

Being a surgeon and practicing surgery for more than two decades, most of my working hours were full of emotions filled with smiles, sufferings, hope, helplessness, happiness, and tears. We doctors see happiness and smiles with a lot of hope with the birth of a child at one moment and rushing a newborn to a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) next moment. We faced almost all kind of different difficult challenges of life and death entwined with many social, economic and political problems. Most of the time we consider it as a part of our daily professional life, but many times it shakes our scientific, religious and cultural knowledge and beliefs. This unique nature of our work with its urgency and emergency to save the precious human life create a complexness in our natural human thought processes. Health in itself is a complicated issue. In this broader context of health, doctors are supposed to treat the patients and provide advice for prevention, promotion, and maintenance of

Happiness, Bliss and Spiritual Health (Chapter 24, #SpiritualHealth)

Happiness and bliss is an emotion related to our wellbeing. It can range from a sense of contentment to real joy. Happiness is considered the most mental perception of our wellbeing . So, we can say that happiness is a happy mental state. United Nations declared the 20 th March as the ‘International Day of Happiness,' to recognize the social importance of the joy in every sphere of life. Bliss is defined as a state of magnified happiness. It occurs with some personal achievements, contentment, and fulfillment. Bliss is described differently in different faiths and religions as happiness. Biologically bliss and happiness are the products of the same thought processes in our brain. Religious concepts define pleasure according to their fundamental beliefs and objectives. The idea of eternal bliss in religions is purely a religious thought process. Eternal bliss is considered the supreme level of happiness, where we can have joy without boundaries. Different reli

Spirituality, Religions, ans Science in Context of Human Health - Spiritual Health

WHO defined health as “A state of Complete physical, mental, social, and spiritual well-being and not merely an absence of disease or infirmity.” t his reflects a positive thought about our health. Though this idea is not new, in Ayurveda, our ancient knowledge of human health the ‘balance’ between various physical, mental and social functioning of the human body is considered as a core value of health and wellness. Modern medicine is criticized for its mechanistic approach towards human health and wellness. Even the definition as mentioned above is considered incomplete and misinforming about human health by many people. Addition of the fourth dimension, the spiritual dimension gives it completeness in some respects. With all these criticisms the WHO definition is widely accepted and applied definition of human health across the globe by healthcare professionals and researchers. The fourth dimension, the Spiritual Dimension is widely discussed among people, physicians, c
