Eternity PKGHATAK, MD No. 25. Eternity. Eternity means forever. Eternity is not limited by constraints of time and “everlastingness” means forever, but within the boundary of time. In ancient Egypt, the Pharaohs made elaborate arrangements for an eternal life after death. The pictorial writings on the walls of the secretive burial chambers and their elaborate funeral books tell their stories of how a pharaoh accumulated wealth and man-power for his comfort for eternity in the afterlife. It is said that as soon as a new pharaoh ascended to the throne, he would start collecting money, gold, and valuables for that purpose; not unlike the Washington congressmen who s...

The plaque says : Niagara Falls, NY, the First Major Hydroelectric Power Plant in the World – Tesla's Greatest Achievement. And in recognition of his work on AC current, it has become possible to transmit electricity to distant places, and the Buffalo community owes him for the growth and development of Buffalo. Tesla: Tesla was born in a Serbian family; the place where he was born now belongs to Croatia. He studied science at two universities but did not graduate. He worked in Paris  at the ...

It is hard to find anyone beyond high school who has not heard the story of Newton, who went to his mother after the Cambridge University was closed during the London plague of 1665. There, sitting under an apple tree, he watched an apple fall to the ground. From this observation,  he discovered Gravity. The truth is that Galileo (February 8, 1564 to February 15, 1642 ) discovered gravity 100 years earlier. Newton developed the mathematical interpretation and expanded it to other spheres of science. Calculus: Gottfried W. Leibniz. A German philosopher and Isaac Newton both developed Calculus independently of each other. Leibniz published his p...

Walking on Fire PKGhatak, MD No.22 The travel brochures for Fiji, Vietnam, or Thailand prominently display a man walking barefoot on the burning amber. This is not a gimmick but a real event. After walking on the burning charcoal, the man willingly allows anyone to examine his feet, and no burns are visible. Is this magic or the mind over matter. The answer should be easy for anyone who cooks regularly or occasionally. If you bake a dish in the oven at 400°F, and open the oven door to take the dish out. The inside of the oven feels hot, but it would not burn the skin. However, if you touch any metal accidentally, you would have a painful burn. Hot metals conduct heat f...

Ghost PKGhatak, MD. No.21. Is death the end of a person. Can science provide a definite answer to this age-old question of the ultimate fate of the life force of the diseased. One does not have to be a scientist to define what is living and what is dead. Humans are not the only living thing on this earth - plants, animals, and even bacteria also live here. Any scientific theory is acceptable as a fact if it is valid in every instance and in every condition. That means we must recognize that every non–human living organism also has a life-force or a soul. That idea is rejected by all Western people who consider themselves religious. But a vast majority of pe...

Renal transplantation is in high demand in the USA and even more so in other parts of the world. In most cases, the kidney failure is a slow process and takes several years. In advanced countries the renal failure can be further slowed with medical treatment before a kidney transplant becomes essential. The increasing incidence of Type II diabetes is one of the main reasons for the increase. Liver transplant, heart, and lung transplants are also on the rise, but the incidence is not near that of the renal transplant rate. In an article, Mr. Jim McCartney, a freelance writer, states that at a given time, 90,000 patients are waiting for a...

Gordius was a poor Phrygian (Turkey) peasant who became king of Phrygia by an oracle. He tied his wagon to a pole with an intricate knot, with the ends of the rope hidden and prophesied the qualification for the future ruler of Asia. No one could untie the knot until Alexander of Macedonia in 333 BCE came and cut the knot with one chop of his sword. This story is similar to the one about Christopher Columbus making an egg stand on its end at the dinner table during the reception given by Queen Isabella of Spain for his discovery of America....
