A particular kind of activism is required now. An activism that at it’s heart represents the TRUE intentions of the global citizen.

Or does he mean that by the time we are ready to “spread out into space” that aggressive instinct will be gone?

Follow the blog http://ruminations.selfdesigneduniverse.com and you will receive answers to al the big questions by and by.

Please note that there are three basic systems of knowledge i.e., science, philosophy and mysticism because the universe’s evolutionary scheme of things comprises three realms of reference i.e., physical, virtual and spiritual and that untill and unless we give due place to the findings of all three of them in our efforts to know the big questions about the universe we are not likely to succeed. It is just common sense.

At the above blog I will try to answer those questions by invoking all three basic systems of knowledge as mentioned above.

We have so many questions in our mind that we can’t even find answers. All of us are wondering on how the universe began, how did the very first one who lives here survived? But whatever is the history behind this, one thing is for sure, vigilance, common sense, and determination are some of the keys to survival.
