I, Dr Mahesh Chand Jain, am a qualified medical doctor. I completed my formal education in 1979 with passing of final M.B.,B.S examination conducted by Delhi University. I am engaged in General Medical Practice since 1982, since as the fate would have it, I was unable to pursue higher studies in medicine. But I continued to educate myself informally by serious studies and in attempting to* make the best out of any experience that the life conferred upon me. I did this with a desire to realize my childhood dream- to know everything about everything. Somewhere, along the path, I realized that this dream can be realized only by evolving comprehensive understanding of nature. This book is the product of forty years of contemplation about things, events and nature. I admit, that despite these efforts, our understanding of nature is limited, particularly, with reference to rationality of creation. |
Even till today, creation as understood so far is not a miracle! But is certainly not less than a miracle! It is sincerely hoped that in future barriers to our understanding of nature in general and creation in particular shall be lifted for good.
As a 13 years old boy, studying in 8th class, I felt that devoting, life to research and development of unknown shall be a great fun. While studying in 9th class, my biology teacher told me that so far, no one has been able to satisfactorily define ‘life’. So I assigned this task to myself and succeeded 35 years later. As a school student and degree college student, I had ‘presumed faith’ in mathematicological perfection of nature.During this period, study of physics and mathematics reinforced this belief. I would not discriminate between descriptive and narrative biology and mathematicologically perfect equations of physics. I could not realize that biology and physics are two entirely different approaches to the process of learning. I could not realize that even in physics, there is, disguised descriptive and narrative element. I realized it at much later date in life about the age of 40 years. As a 1st year medical student I tried to understand human physiology in rational terms like all other classmates of mine. One day, troubled by our persistent questioning, Dr. (Mrs.) Chatterjee told us in plain and simple words that it is futile to seek rationality in medicine. It is a plethora of facts which you have to mug up to pass examinations and become doctors. This situation was quite unacceptable to me and I decided to discover rationality in human physiology and anatomy and wrote a note to this effect on my hostel room wall. I soon acquired a reputation for madness for my Eureka moments. On the day previous to writing anatomy examination, I was studying human physiology. Soon I learned to manage myself. This self assignment, in due course of time expanded to the level of entire universe and nature.
Besides medical practice, I have indulged in business activities, hands-on-applied research in technology development, without any teacher, peer or guide, engaged in several litigations and after suffering set backs in business, studied physics again at the age of 40 years and expanded my knowledge of life sciences. As a result of cumulative experience, studies and contemplation of 40 years, I was able to write and publish this book which presents nature in a much different light than currently held views. Publication of this book marks realization of my childhood dream and is an obligation which I owe to humanity for my being and my intellect. |
