HISTORY OF TIME

CRISIS OF MODERN CIVILISATION
by P.V. KURYAN
CHAPTER 2

HISTORY OF TIME


I have  been reading 'History of Time` by the greatest physicist Stephen.W. Hawking who has baffled death all these years and continues his researches sitting and moving in a wheel chair, Bal Gangadhar Tilak's ' Antiquity of Vedas', published in 1895. a books about Buddist concept of minds and Bertrand Russel's book `New Hopes for a changing world.' Vedas, nuclear physics, the mind of man and a new world appear to be a strange combination. Is there a cord binding all these apparently  contradictory studies, is it not the cord that unites man with Universe and Eternity. Einstein was sad about the bringing up of the nuclear bomb for which he persuaded Mr. Franklin De Roosevelt so that Nazi Germany may not use it first to defeat and smashed western democracies and the West European civilisation. Albert Einstein was pessimistic about the future of the world. He feared that the present civilisation and man kind will perish out of thermo-nuclear war between the western Europe and Communist Russia and the fear haunted 
Einstein till his death. He felt guilty in the innermost depths of his soul for the tragedy that was awaiting mans's destiny and the crucial role he had played in it. It may seem the division of the world in to Communism and Capitalism as a pareniel feature and Communism as  poisonous dragon enveloping and engulfing the whole human society.
