Aquarian Science
Science, Past and Future
When you hear the word "science," what does it make you think of? Do you think of the academic sciences of biology, chemistry and physics? Does it make you envision people in lab coats working in a sophisticated laboratory? Or, most importantly, does it make you think of people who made earth-shattering discoveries?
If you thought these, and many others, then you have stumbled upon a good subject. Science has been around ever since the dawn of man, when man began to learn of his surroundings. Whether on his own or with the aid of extraterrestreal beings, man has stumbled upon something that can explain the Universe that he lives in. And what a "something" that thing was! It has led to the devlopment of buildings, agriculture, money and many other "modern conveniences."
But let us think about it. If we have all these modern conveniences that most of us take for granted, then why science? Isn't science devoted to the crazy theories and new discoveries that "go unnoticed after a while"? What does science have to do with money and buildings?
Let me ask this question: "If you have a problem that requires the best solution without causing another problem, what would you do?" If you come up with an answer, you are truly using science. You, in a sense, are being a scientist.
But what is science? The word "science" comes from the Latin sciencia, meaning "knowledge." Science is another way of saying "divine knowledge," and surprisingly this divine knowledge is what inspired people to do amazing things.
For example, in ancient Egypt, the most collosal structures to ever exist were the Great Pyramids of Giza. Archaeologists suggest that human effort were used to create the pyramids, but two things suggest otherwise. One was the tightness of the blocks (you can't push a knife between them) and the other was the calculated time it would take for human effort to complete them (about 100 years). Plus, the concept of pi did not exist in Egypt at the time, so the best conclusion to reach is that the ancient Egyptians used a different science.
Another example of science different from the conventional science of the 20th century is the "infamous" science of alchemy. Using mysterious methods to transmutate metals and create new substances, alchemy was a secret in the medieval period but mere nonsense in the 19th century. It was when alchemical elements were revived in the 20th century did science take a turn.
Even though science is a powerful and magnificant spiritual tool, there has been restrictions on it by various people. The Roman Catholic church refused to give up the geocentric model of the universe when Nicholas Copernicus and Gallileo proved the sun to be the center and even punished them for doing so. The European scientific community of the 18th century stated that it has found the answers to the cosmos and even kept the "mad dreamers" from achieving their dreams -- until the late 19th century. And now there are those who hold on to the science of the 20th century and refuse to acknowledge any new theories that will later become law.
Whenever you hear a physicist say, "Parapsychology is pseudoscience" or a psychologist say, "All this is by the power of suggestion," realize that they are going by a primitive system of investigation based only upon theory tested their way. If you have a scientific theory that may later become law, the best thing to do is to test it another person's way. You will never know what you will find.
Again, science is not investigating but knowing. Science is divine knowledge that is translated into actuality. If we can keep this in mind, we will all not only become scientists but also become a race that can equate to any advanced race existing out there in the universe.
