Do we ask the cells within our body to reproduce or work ?

NO, we don’t. All cells reproduce to keep all the systems inside our body working. But we don’t ask them what they should do. Nor we ask them to reproduce. This process is more formally called cell division.

Then why these little workers work so hard for us?

Red Blood Cells carry Oxygen to all parts of our body.

Everything in our body is made up of just cells. The cells are like the bricks of our house. What will happen if each brick starts to break? Let’s now compare this to our body. Each cell gets regenerated. Old cells are replaced by new one "automagically".

The cells get to work whenever there is a wound. But again who told them to do this?

Either cells are intelligent and can think (like tiny humans) OR there is a natural force built within all living things which causes cells to work.

In biology classes, we are taught the function of different cells in our body. Why the cells do these functions no science explain this.

According to me, medical science and biology are not interested in these questions.

I leave you with these head scratching questions. If you have something to say on this topic please share by commenting below.

PS: Am still researching on this topic and I am also planning to write a post on cells vs humans vs universe.

Does God Exist? The story of the Buddha, a religious person and an atheist

One day in the early morning Gautama Buddha was sitting in a garden quietly with his disciples. A man arrived silently and stood in the shadows, that man was a great devotee of Lord Rama. He had built many temples across the country, he had devoted many years in the service of Lord Rama. He would always chant Rama's name and contemplate on Rama's greatness. He was old and close to his last years. Even after many years of dedicated spiritual effort he was not realized. He wanted to know for sure if there is a God or not? When he heard about the realized one (Buddha) , he came to get his doubt cleared. When he felt nobody would notice him talking to Siddhartha, the Buddha. He asked Gautama " O enlightened one, Please tell me the truth! and truth only . Is there a god ?" Buddha, from his intuition knew that man to be a great devotee of Lord Rama, he looked at that man with seriousness and said " No, My friend. There is no god ". Buddha's disci...

Going with the flow of Life

Imagine a river flowing freely, passing through all rocks. Imagine a river which knows how to find its own path and destination. Nobody tells the river where to go. It is natural for the river to flow. Now, compare this river with our life. We could learn some lessons from this river analogy and hence improve our life. 1. Life goes in one direction : so we must never look back at our past. 2. We must be dynamic and that’s more natural : Being dynamic means there is energy flow. It also means we are flexible and can easily adapt to changes. 3. We have a destination & we can find our path : In life, we all have some dreams which we want to accomplish. 4 . In life we will encounter some obstructions: These obstructions are just like the rocks. We will be able to overcome them easily if we do some effort. Trying to fight the resistances will prevent us from reaching our goal. 5. There are many turns in life : Just as the river goes through many turns,...

IF you are WORRYING it means you are NOT LIVING

If you are worrying it means you are not living. It means you are simply wasting your valuable time in vain. It means you are simply wasting your opportunities. It means you are happier with your past & that you are not enjoying the present moment. The universe has blessed us with a beautiful life. Be aware of this fact. Our destiny is in our hands. If we keep on worrying, we cannot progress in our life. We will be living in the past. We have a choice. We can choose to live in the Present. Worrying is a total waste of time. Ask yourself “If not NOW, WHEN will I LIVE?” Time does NOT wait for anyone. This is another fact we need to be aware of. Worrying is what robs our peace of mind, our happiness, our joy, our success… Give your worries a break. Free yourself from all worries (past pains, hurts, emotional wounds, anything that prevents you from living…) Put your burden of worries down. Then you feel light. Then you can LIVE. It’s very...
