Science should get to work and instead of fighting the truth of God [embrace God the Absolute truth.]
The big bang is not the absolute truth.
Our very existence without God makes no sense at all and cannot even be explained without being dishonest in every way possible....... by inventing absurd theories..
Presently, scientific inquiry without spiritual knowledge is onesided.All forms of human inquiry should be utilized in search for Absolute Truth. A physicist should inquire: what is the real source of the laws of nature?
A chemist can inquire: who is the Supreme Chemist behind all the wonderful molecules, DNA,chlorophyll, proteins, etc.? Vedanta explains that if we do
research far enough, we will find that the ultimate source is God.
Thus, Vedanta advises that scientific knowledge should not try to remove God from everything. When one realizes the AbsoluteTruth through such an inquiry, he will understand the actual basis of reality. And then, his duty is to glorify the Supreme Lord through the scientific understanding. This is the secret and the real platform of happiness. This is what is instructed in the
Bhagavata Purana, the natural commentary on the Albert Einstein once remarked, “The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing. One cannot help but in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery
everyday.”
In the human form of life, the consciousness (cetana), intelligence (buddhi), mind (manas), senses (indriyas) are fully developed. Thus, human being is totally equipped to make the deepest jignasa (inquiry), the spiritual inquiry. A similar message echoes in the statement of Albert Einstein who states that knowing the mind (plan) of God is most important and the rest are details.
By this inquiry, sambandha, the relationship between the individual self and God will be established and the pure spiritual knowledge of the self will be understood. Isa Upanisad further declares, isa vasya mid am sarvam, everything belongs to the Supreme Lord. Therefore, everything should be used, including the works of the scientists and all the leaders of the world in the service of the Supreme Lord.
In a nutshell, this is the view of Vedanta regarding the prime duty of humanity.
