THE BEGINNING...

Well now that I am sure of not being aware of my final destination, I certainly would like to know what was my beginning - "mera aagaz". I mean what made me what I am ( people that include you too) , in fact what brought us to this stage of life? I think i had some ideas which can explain me all this but still i wanted to read ( don't be amazed i do read at times) and when i Googled  the Google, i found myself drowning in the ocean of  "EVOLUTION". Explanations were there, and it also made me realize that its little easy to work backwards. Frankly that is why may be scientist instead of writing and researching more on where we go after life wrote much about from where we evolved. 

Several hypothesis were given, some scientist said it was abiogenesis, some said life originated in "primordial soup" and some believed that it was just some "self organisation" of polymers and monomers that gave birth to first living cell. But one thing was confirmed life began in sea. And from there we evolved from simplest cell that was made up of collection of polymers and monomers to bacteria to annelids to vertebrates to mammals and in mammals finally to "man".

But what after that, what made us what we are today? Is this the end of evolutionary journey? A book - "The Psychology of Esoteric" says "With man, the natural, automatic process of evolution ends. Man is the last product of unconscious evolution. With man, conscious evolution begins." So what is this Conscious and Unconscious Evolution and is really the man an end product of evolutionary process? It makes me wonder are we so complete and "full" that even nature feel that all has been given or done with us..

The only difference that "man" enjoyed against other animals was the ability to make a "choice". This ability was the result of consciousness that we attained which in turn was also the reason for end of unconscious evolution in us. This consciousness also gave rise to "individuality" in man. The "choice" was not an option it was an obligation... its like if you are choosing not to choose then also you are making a choice of not choosing. So the life started moving forward on wheels on conscious evolution. Sometimes I feel that if choices that were made in past were not the same but other what differences that would have been made!!!

The best part is that whatever choices we make they become our destiny. And then comes the catch... here i would like to quote lines from the one of my favorite movie "K-Pax" -

"I want to tell you something Mark,
something you don not yet know,
The universe will expand, and then it will collapse back on itself',
and then it will expand again.
It will repeat this process forever.
What you don't know is that, when the universe expands again,
everything will be as it is now.
Whatever mistakes you will make this time around,
you will live through on your next pass.
Every mistake you make...
you will live through...
again and again and forever.
So my advice to you is to,
get it right this time around,
Because this time..
is all you have. "

So i guess the conscious evolution is nothing but how we "choose" to live our life... because that is what our upcoming generations will look up to.
