Everchanging and Ever-new world

It is true, the time in which we are living is indeed unstoppable. There are no limits to our ideas and creativity. We can do and create almost anything what we want in this present world. Whether be it the invention or discovery, everything is noticed, appreciated and encouraged. In the history of science this would be the most perfect timing for any great brain to be born. If peopole, like Copernicus, Galileo or Newton would take birth now, most of the mysteries of Universe would be in our hand. Though the present day scientists are painstakin and doing their best with the aid of electronic instruments their efforts seem to be incomparable against the intellectuals who presented before us the real picture and position of the earth and Sun without any sophisticated machinery. The efforts of those scientists are most commendable.
The difficulties which they faced, in their personal life, in bringing out the truth, I think does not require any mention as many know about it already. To come up, that too against an idea that ruled the society for thosand years was really a daunting task. And these people never thinking about their future or family showed their bravado and intelligent skills rose above all of us, at a position at which all of us dream to be.
The challenges even today are enormous and intelligence today is also feared because of its innate quality to challenge the staunch, concrete-laden myth of a super-natural , super power. The present Indian society and polity also fears the same because of its weak foundations of religions.[ To be concluded......]
