New Hypothesis : Does Nature think?

Does Nature Think? : A New Hypothesis of the Nature

There have been many explanations on the nature of human kind and plants in the natural sciences. We are trying to have a new hypothesis that has not been explored heretofore. This is about the nature of the Nature. This can be a controversial discussion with reference to the established scientific knowledge in the world.

Before proceeding to the discussion, we would like to introduce a few new meanings to some terms which can misinterpret.
Environment is everything surrounding a particular object, person, animal, plant or area. For example, environment of an elephant is all the things surrounding it. That may include, trees, animals, other elephants, microbes, wind, heat, soil, mountains, sky, rays, light, and etc etc. The environment of a tree can be the same. So the environment is defined always with reference to something we concern at the moment.
Sometimes, the term nature is used interchangeably with the term environment which is not correct mostly. Therefore, in this discussion we use a new term “the Nature” to represent “everything and nothing in everywhere and nowhere” or “all in the universe”.

Our hypothesis explains that there is a psychodynamic nature in the Nature.  We know the other dynamics of the Nature through the different branches of science and there are expanded views of the gravitational forces, dark matter, horizons and other cosmological explanations. Apart from all of them, is there a psychological forces in the universe?  Let us focus on some of the phenomena and incidents we know and try to see the systematic execution of them in the universe or in the world.

The matter is organized in a very systematic way in the universe. The matter is dynamic in a systematic way. That can not be explained gravitational forces alone. New terms come into play called dark matter and energy. Ecological balancing (equilibrium) is obvious phenomenon which can not be explained simply with biogeocycles or cause and effect theologies alone. When the equilibrium of a particular ecosystem is disturbed by addition or removal of particular component to / from the ecosystem, it tries to adjust it. There seems another force that makes the arrangements and timing.

Some balancing activities involves psychological forces too. Though the human life is always taken separately in explanations, it is a part of nature. The activities of human population is also a part of Natural phenomena. To balance the carbon cycle, coal or oil reservoirs may be required taken up to the top of the lithosphere. But due to the human activities, it has come to the surface. There seems a psychological force directing the intellectuals in different times of the history if we analyze it in detail.

When the human population is rising, natural balance was not enough in terms of natural disasters but human mind was also used through wars and conflicts. Diseases and health conditions alone is not working to manage the human  population and thus some other mechanisms are being employed like concepts born in intellectuals. It seems that knowledge management is also a part of the Nature in its evolution. Family planning may not be effective enough to control the ever-growing numbers. While the number of barren families are increasing, some “recessive concepts or feelings” like homosexuality is now being used in this juncture.
We see a lot of repercussions for what we have done. We call sometimes divine retribution in Christian theologies or Karma in Buddhist philosophies. They can be explained in terms of evidences if we deeply investigate them. Its better to keep an open eye of science for unexplainable rather rejecting them due to lack of evidences captured with current knowledge and technologies.  
In case of proving this hypothesis, understanding the Nature and its thinking pattern will be very much useful for the future of the mankind as well as life on the earth. Once we understand right, we can live with Nature. If not, the Nature will have to remove human population from the earth, so that the natural balance is in effect.

This hypothesis is yet to be developed with a conceptual and a theoretical framework so that we could come to decision whether this claim is true. Until then, we’ll keep searching. Your suggestions, critics and comments are welcome!

President Barack Obama is "Guilty of Crimes against Humanity"

The US is like a drunkard who charges to war with anyone who might pose a threat, ex-Senator and former US presidential candidate Mike Gravel says.
­“I like the US. But at the same time I think my country is an imperial country that is going downhill, and our leadership does not even acknowledge the problem,” confesses Gravel.
“Phony triumphalism has turned into a device to make Americans live in fear of a terrorist attack, yet you are a thousand times more likely to catch cancer than ever be hurt by that,” he points out.
“All I can say about what the US is doing – it‘s immoral,” Gravel says, explaining that “as a result of 9/11, we have altered our moral compass. And people began to get used to brutalizing each other.”
“We Americans used to think ‘oh, what happened in Germany could never happen with us!’ Well, it is happening with us. And it is happening to the detriment of our global position.”

“In Afghanistan, in Iraq and in Vietnam at the era, all American soldiers died in vain,” Gravel claims, recalling the millions of war victims in Vietnam, which is now developing along its own path, regardless.
New American policies enable US military or security officials to take a decision and dispatch a drone to kill a suspect without trial – together with all civilians who happen to be close to the target, Gravel says.
“The morality of that is removing responsibility – those who drop bombs [from remotely operated robot drones] do not see people die,” he says.
“We have not matched the progress in the private sector of technology and science with the ability to govern ourselves in a proper fashion. We do not have a democracy. We have a system of representative governments worldwide, and that is not good enough for people to govern themselves in the XXI century,” argues the former Senator.

President Barack Obama is
“guilty of crimes against humanity after the operation in Libya and the continuing wars in Afghanistan and Iraq”
– and Mike Gravel has got proof.
“He [Obama] was asked whether or not there would be a possibility that we begin an investigation of the invasion in Iraq by George Bush – which was an absolute crime. What was Barack Obama’s response? ‘We don’t look back’. That means we do not want you, the American citizens, to see what happened, because you may turn around and accuse us of the same thing,” Mike Gravel says, “it’s even worth than that. It is not an accusation. He has been doing exactly the same thing as George Bush did.”
“Most people are unaware of the fact that over the last year, the Obama administration chased out of the United States… over 500,000 people. If we had a media that is all honest – this would have been front page and hotly discussed,” he reveals.
“Obama is raising a billion dollars for his re-election campaign, and he has made a statement which demonstrates what respect he has for the people. He made the statement ‘We’re not going to take any money from special interests’. I tell you – the billion dollars come from special interests,” ex-Senator Gravel accuses.
He believes beating the drums about attacking Iran is very dangerous and marks the irresponsibility of the Israeli leadership.
“I’m not saying anything new – Sarkozy says Netanyahu is a liar – so in my humble status as a private citizen – I tell you Netanyahu is a liar, because he has made statements about Iran that are absolutely ridiculous – all this to create fear among people in Israel.”
Mike Gravel recalled the Bush-created syndrome of ‘bunker mentality’ that rules people with fear.
“Iran is neither Syria nor Lebanon. Iran is a proud nation and they have missile capabilities – not nuclear-capable – that can rain down on Tel Aviv. I can tell you: if they are attacked – they would attack back. And [because] Israel is so vulnerable and so small that it [Israel] would retaliate with nukes – because they cannot suffer to be destroyed,” Mike Gravel predicts, adding that Pakistan and China would join in, with the US to follow – and that is a ready scenario for a nuclear WWIII.
“The best way to solve the problem with Iran is to leave it alone to build a democracy of its own.”
Asked about the power of corporations said to ‘own the government’, Mike Gravel pointed out that corporations are designed to be responsible only to their shareholders, not to the government or the people.
“Corporations need to be regulated, they are not democracies,” he says. “In fact corporations have no morality and no memory – they are just designed to make money. They should not be in command of society – which they are, worldwide, today.”
“That has to change, because this is going to lead to the destruction of our planet,” insists Gravel. “Irresponsible corporate activity must be controlled.”
“People are free if they participate in power. I know of no country in the world today where the people are really free,” he concluded.

US multinational Dole scraps Sri Lanka banana plans

Conservationists argue that the plantation would have violated environmental laws

Conservationists in Sri Lanka have welcomed a decision by US-based multinational food firm Dole to abandon plans for a huge banana plantation.
Campaigners say Dole had hoped to team up with a local company, Letsgrow Ltd, to plant the bananas in Somawathiya National Park.
The park is home to elephants and other endangered species, activists say.
In a statement to the BBC, Dole said it had "ceased all commercial operations" on the land and was vacating it.
It denied earlier that the plantation would have been located on "land designated as forest land".
"The Department of Wildlife Conservation has been requested to visit the area for their confirmation," the statement said. It said that Dole had met several Sri Lankan environmental and conservation groups in relation to claims by them that part of the proposed area of cultivation was in the park.
One of these groups, the Environmental Conservation Trust of Sri Lanka, says that an area of about 5,000 acres was earmarked for the plantation, which would have necessitated a "massive clearing of forestry" in an area populated by rare leopards, birds and water buffalo.
The trust said that Letsgrow Ltd - owned by cricketers Pramodya Wicramasinghe and Muttiah Muralitharan - acquired the land from the army. The trust's statement said that while it recognised the need to rebuild Sri Lanka after decades of war, the proposed plantation was in the catchment area of the River Mahaweli which provides water to many animals in the national park. "The damage inflicted would be too great compared with the benefits acquired," the statement said. It said that Dole could easily have selected suitable land elsewhere without violating Sri Lanka's environmental laws. But the company says that it is committed to conservation and environmental protection, "in addition to providing meaningful employment and benefits for local communities".
