Stephen Hawkins once said that ‘the life is the most overrated
phenomenon of the universe’. I agree with him that this phenomenon is being
made of utmost importance by those who benefit from it. But the question, which
should be asked in response, should be; ‘if not the life, then what else?’
Nothing in universe is still, from macro to micro level.
Everything moves as do the thing infused with ‘life’. Can whole universe be termed as alive by this
standard? There is a subtle difference here. The heavenly bodies move as per
known and yet to be known laws of science but the force responsible for
movements in life-forms is the force of the Conscience. The results of actions
of the life-forms can be deciphered by the science, but not the actions itself.
In supposedly less intelligent life forms, the Conscience takes the form of the
instinct.
The life is bound to be the most overrated phenomenon as it
imbibes a force which is found nowhere else, at least what we know as of now. If
we did not have eyes, what other use of the visible universe could be there? If
roulette is set with certain rules, then what’s the use if the players are not
there?
I believe in supreme force of the most wonderful object of
the creation; the human brain. The only known object which can analyze itself!
If we are not the bearers of the Conscience, then we are merely the roaming abode of micro-organisms, and then yes, the life is most overrated phenomenon of
this creation.
