I've just gone through the wonderful account posted by arvind1990 in " IMMORTAL ENIGMA". I saw the disbelief in some of you couldn't stop myself from writing somethng around the way i have seen miracles....
The art of miracle and science has been so clearly and wonderfully explained in the movie matrix. We have all been born and brought up in a set of rules... you fall from a big building, you will die. you stay under water for some time, you wont stay alive... what if you figure out one day that all these rules were nothing but mental barriers? When morpheus says "Free your mind Neo"... i'm sure thats exactly what he was trying to do. When Neo vists oracle and watches this kid trying to bend a spoon, the kid tells him "there is no spoon"... its about nderstanding the illusions the mother nature puts you under. The great yogis are nothing but people who have spent eternities trying to understand these rules and eventually free themselves form the bondings of "natural rules"... and there's nothing magical about it.. it is all science.. pure unadultarated sceince...
We all know world is nothing but energy.... einstein proved it long ago.. its all E = MC2. So if you can control the energies, you can create or disintegrate the mass too.. everything in the world is nothing but condensed forms of pure energy.. so if you knew and had mastered the rules of energy-mass relation, miracles could happen...
there have been several true accounts of yogis disappearing at one place and then "pufff" materialising at another.. i think its all about being aware of the subtle laws of nature.. how to change mass to energy and vise versa...
the whole geeta and the karmic theory is nothing but a direct implication of newtons laws of motions... especially the action-reaction principle; the third law; thats what has been iterated in the good-karma bad-karma theory in Bhagwad Geeta.
so science and spirituality are almost synonomous... telepathy, radio waves... you take these technologies to a 500 years behind, wouldn' you be called a complete magician...
A brilliant understanding of every aspect of spirituality and miracles and how sceince has made it work is very smoothly and interesting explained by Paramhansa yogannanda, in "Autobiography of a Yogi", by giving extremely interesting and magical story like accounts of his own life..
so my take is that the semi clad, dirt ridden sadhu sitting in the himalays, is a lot bigger scientist, coz he has figured out the powerful science on which the whole cosmos operates..
