When Science Bowed Down – Before Consciousness | Shristi Mitraa Blog जब विज्ञान झुक गया – चेतना के आगे | Shristi Mitraa Blog

Does God really exist? This question has arisen in every age. Some discovered it through worship, some through the laboratory. But time has taught us that “God” is not just in temples or religion, but in every law, energy, and intelligence that governs the universe. When science reached its limits, it too had to admit—There is something beyond our understanding, but everything is connected to it.

🌍 1. The Beginning – When Man ‘Looked Up at the Sky’

Millions of years ago, when man lived in the forests, he was frightened by lightning, thunder, or a flooding river. He believed there was some invisible power that was causing all this. Gradually, he began to see “gods” in nature itself—the Sun God, the Wind God, and the Fire God. This was the beginning of the realization of God—not with fear, but with wonder.

Today, that same human being, sitting in laboratories, is observing the universe billions of light-years away through telescopes. He now knows that the sun is a ball of gas, electricity is the movement of electrons, but the same question still lingers in his mind— “How does all this work so precisely?”

⚛️ 2. What does science do, and what is God?

Science and God are not two opposites, but two paths leading to the same goal—the search for truth.

• Science asks: “How does it work?”
• Contemplation of God asks: “Why does this happen?” (Why does it exist?)

Science is based on experiment and evidence, while spirituality is based on experience and consciousness. When both complete their journey, they both come to understand the same thing— “Truth is one, only the ways of understanding it are different.”

🔬 3. What did great scientists say?

🧠 Albert Einstein

When Einstein was asked if he believed in God, he said— “I want to know how God created this world.” He saw God not as a religious deity, but as a universal intelligence. He used to say – “God does not play dice.” That is, the universe is not a coincidence, but is run by a well-organized rule.

☀️ Isaac Newton

Newton discovered gravity, but said – “The system of the sun and planets could only proceed from an intelligent and powerful Being.” He said, “I have discovered rules, not made them.” This means that there must be some kind of consciousness that creates the rules.

🌌 Stephen Hawking

Hawking was often called a "scientist who doesn't believe in God," but in his last book, "Brief Answers to the Big Questions," he wrote, ""We still do not know why the universe exists, or who created the laws that govern it." To admit that "something is unknown" is to admit God.

🔭 Max Planck

Max Planck, the father of quantum physics, said, ""All matter originates and exists only by virtue of a conscious and intelligent mind." This means that consciousness is behind matter. This is the same thing that was said thousands of years ago in the Vedas – “Sarvam Khalvidam Brahma.” (The entire universe is a manifestation of the same consciousness.)

💫 4. The Mystery of Energy – Where Science and Spirituality Meet

According to modern physics, the entire universe is a play of energy. There is vibration within every atom. That is, nothing is truly static—everything is dynamic, made of waves and vibrations.

Science says – “Everything is energy.”
Spirituality says – “Everything is an extension of the same supreme consciousness.”

Science calls it the “Energy Field,” and spirituality calls it “God.” The experience is the same for both—only the words are different.

🩺 5. “Rx” on a doctor's prescription—Science's humble bent

Every doctor writes “Rx” at the beginning of their prescription. Many people think of it as merely a formal sign, but it holds thousands of years of history.

• “Rx” is derived from the Latin word Recipere, meaning “receive” or “accept.”
• In ancient Egypt and Greece, it symbolized the “grace of the god Jupiter.”
• Ancient physicians believed that healing was not just about medicine, but about the patient's morale and God's grace.

This is why modern medical science, even today, begins with the prayer: “Where science ends, grace begins.”

🧬 6. Three Questions on Which Science Remains Silent

Science has discovered much—planets, stars, DNA, quantum particles— but three questions still haunt it. Makes us humble:

1. Origin of Life: The chemical elements have been discovered, but no one knows where consciousness came from.
2. Consciousness: Brain activity can be measured, But where does the feeling "I am thinking" come from?
3. Origin of the Universe: The Big Bang is But what existed before that? What was the power that initiated it?

Science answers these questions with “We don’t know yet.” — And this very word “yet” makes it bow before the possibility of God’s existence.

🌠 7. When Science Learned Humility

At the end of every discovery, a scientist finds that the more he learns, the more remains unknown. Einstein used to say — “The more I study science, the more I believe in God.” Science may not have accepted scriptures, but it saw in the laws of nature the same intelligence that the sages called “Brahma.”

When we look at the sun, it gives us light; but when we understand it, it makes us humble. This is the true purpose of science—a journey from knowledge to faith. ---

🌿 8. Srishti Mitra's Perspective

Srishti Mitra believes that God is not limited to any one form, religion, or scripture. He is present in every law that sustains life.

When we pick up a wounded bird, water a plant, or support an elderly person— the compassion that surges within us at that moment is the true experience of God.

Science shows us how small we are, and God makes us feel that we are part of that vastness.

💫 Conclusion—Science and God in the Same Direction

There is no wall between science and God. Science gives us the wisdom to understand the world, and God gives us the compassion to understand ourselves.

One is incomplete without the other. Science is blind without spirituality, and spirituality is incomplete without science.

“Science without spirituality is blind,
and spirituality without science is lame.” — Albert Einstein

So, Srishti Mitra's message is this: “Don't look for God, feel Him. He is hidden in every law, every compassion, every creation.”
