Life is Unique



Universe is a wonderful phenomenon. The mystery of Universe is still eluding us. Many theories are presented, hypotheses are proposed about how it could have formed. There are only theories and hypotheses. The origin of ‘life’ also cannot be explained. How and when and why the ‘life’ has come into existence no one can give a foolproof explanation. When things cannot be explained, existence of some ‘Super Natural’ power is believed. When the power is within Nature how can it be ‘Super Natural? We think so, as we cannot see that power like we see any other object – living or non-living.
I believe the Superior Power of nature. This is the power inherent in Nature. The Superior Power in the Universe is perceived with sensations or felt with intellectual abilities but cannot be proved instantly or explained in words. Everything in Nature is unique. Every being is unique. Nothing can be exact replica of a thing. Externally it may appear to be so. But it may show subtle difference on close observation in some character or its functions.
When I think of uniqueness of Creation I remember the differences of conjoined twins. Conjoined twins share same genes, same intra and extra uterine environment. But the survival capacity of each co-twin differs from that of the other. We can take the example of twins joined at heads sharing same blood vessels in the head and surviving. We know there is variation in their interests. The conjoined sisters of Iran, who survived without human intervention till their early twenties, expressed their desire to pursue different professions of their choice after separation. Unfortunately they are no more now. Now there is another pair of kids separated from their conjoined heads are recuperating. We can study their nature. No body knows what makes a person unique. Every being with its unique characters has its special purpose of existence. The purpose may be obvious or can be understood only on contemplation.
Every one of us is born with unique qualities. Being the most intelligent being of this marvelous Creation let us use our ‘life’ in making this earth the best abode for every being.
