We are not alone in this universe!

We are not alone in this universe!

Let me propose a hypothesis “That we are not alone in this universe”.
That set in the formation of a forum of journalists, scientists and citizenry to investigate and prove or disprove the stated claims.
 

The result is various people with different academic credentials take up the challenge to validate their own positioning and reasoning.
 

From scientists to engineers to journalist get 
involved in unraveling the mystery.
 

For the citizenry it is a mystery.
 

It’s highly unlikely we’re alone in the universe, NASA experts are saying and we may be close to finding alien life.
 

In fact, it may happen in the next two decades.
 

NASA held a panel discussion at the agency’s Washington headquarters where space experts talked about the search for Earth-like planets that host life.
Based on recent advancements in space telescope technology, scientists estimated that in the coming decades we’ll confirm suspicions that we’re not alone.
“I think in the next 20 years we will find out we are not alone in the universe,” NASA astronomer states.Roswell incident with putative alien visitation is 70 years old. We have to wait another 20 years. The Total is 90 years for discovery. In other words we have to wait for another guy like Paul Heller to emerge in his/her death bed dying disposition.

Won't we?
I want the truth right now not when "ordained in a coffin" like Egyptian Tutukarman.

Be yourself!


Be yourself!

Why do I say “Do not hunt aliens.”

For the simple reason, they will reciprocate.

If you hunt aliens, they hunt you down with much vigour they can muster.

Ignore them and get on with your own self.

This is why I hate these guys/girls who say and claim, they have open up an avenue for communication with a cosmic order or channel.

There are two of my own reasons for the aversion.

One reason is, over 90% of them are human tricksters and suckers.

The rest 10%, if you consider them genuine, they are already sucked up to the alien influences, God knows for what reason, most likely selfish, I believe.

Protect yourself from outside influences what ever they may be, and enjoy yourself to the utmost bliss not hindered by living or dead souls.

That is where “Moment Meditation” will inspire you to a higher mental order of yourself.

You do not have to share (in true sense one cannot) this experience with anybody including yourself (it is transient and temporary) but enjoy the discovery and enlightenment.

Imagine one can read the mind of another (God may be).

See the chaos it creates.

There over 7 billion chaos to conquer.

Would you ever try this in real life.

It is utter madness.

Be yourself, this moment and the next that not yet come.

Do not look back over the past even if one can remember.

Memory is a temporary store anyway.

Postscript; 

I poem and a verse on MM elsewhere in the same blog post.

Do not Hunt Aliens


Do not Hunt Aliens

This is a dream and nobody should take this piece seriously (regarding aliens).

Let me make a brief note on dreams.

Sleep and dreams are essential for reinvigorating the working of the wakeful mind.

Dreams are specially useful for those having thought block when writing something trivial as a blog piece  or a story.

Lot of dreams we never remember.

If you want to remember you have to jot them down immediately.

Dreams does not create memory tracks and I believe they actually erase the excessive neural connections used in wakeful states.

I had a bit of a physical day.

Ended up watching a bizarre futuristic science fiction film.
It felt awful and the story did not have any message except total confusion.

I could not figure out what the creator wanted me to grasp.

Perhaps nothing but confusion.

Alien Dream
Getting back to my dream, I cannot remember the beginning.

I was in a strange place with unfamiliar people.
I was on doing some boring work.
I asked for a cup of tea.
The one who made me the cup of tea was a stranger.
He appeared be one of my helping hands and a mischief.

He made me a awful tea.
It was cold and watery.
I asked him why it is cold.
He immediately said I thought you love iced tea.
I did not have ice so made it cold.

This strange alien fellow is reading my mind I thought.

Next thing I remember was, I had to negotiate a deep water crossing.

It was risky and needed a long rope and the distant end looked like a cliff.

The plan was for me to descend down to the edge (how it was secured onto the distant end was a mystery) and return after a brief examination.

I wend down, came close to the end of the cliff but it appeared to be very tall roof built on the rock with something like a monastery below.

The idea was for me to cross over and return after little peep.

My helpers were holding onto the other end to pull me back in an emergency.

This was like a military drill that I had to do to prove my credentials.
I swung across and strangely somebody like a monk greeted me.
I asked this is the end.
He said no and it is the sliver line or the silver rope.
Instructions were for me to follow him.
He climbed up along narrow corridors with various huts on either side which looked liked small cubicles made for individual meditators.

I will cut the story down here. 

He was leaving behind signs and wooden planks across and finally came to a muddy but dark pit.
He put planks across and walked on them swiftly and for me, I was walking fearfully to my own grave

Then he finally disappeared into the watery grave.
I had no option left but to jump to the pit to stop him.
I did so but there were many other un-earhly beings and luckily for me one of them saved me from the watery grave.

I would try to interpret this in an alien point of view.

The strange guy was an alien from a distant planet.
He could change his appearance form a helping hand to a guide to a monk.
He was leading me to a certain disaster.
He had no remorse.
He had no smile but seemed to me controlling my actions.

Who saved me, I do not know.

I think it was my dog who followed my scent.

I actually over slept by 3 hours and if not for this dream I would be still sleeping and no story for you.

What to take home.
1. Do not go hunting aliens.

2. Do not watch nasty films before going to sleep.

3. Practice Momentary Moment Meditation (3M) when your mind goes crazy.

4. Sleep well.

5, Read your favorite novel before you drop to sleep.

6, Do not trust aliens if you happen to meet any.

7. They will steal your dreams (aliens cannot dream like us)

8. The worst they will abduct you for flimsy examinations,which you will have no memory!

Unique Qualities of the Planet Earth


Unique Qualities of the Planet Earth


Earth is a extraordinarily unique planet.


1. The fact that it supports life is unique.


2. Its biodiversity is unbelievably diverse, in spite of it is much younger planetary age.


3. Its amount and quality of water (sea and terrestrial lakes) is almost boundless.


4. It has atmosphere containing gases that support life.


5. It has a magnetic fields.


6. It has abundance of metals (except 115 and 116).


7. It has seasons.


8. Its spin around the sun is congenial to life systems.


9. Volcanoes keep on adding substances to its surface.


10. Its center is molten.


11.It is a living planet.


It is unusual for all other exo-planets in the universe to reproduce its unique qualities.


These are probably the reasons why there is visitation by ET on regular basis.


Why USA (UK its allay is aiding and abetting) is keeping these visitations TOP Secret from its subjects (Action of the Secret Service) is a million dollar question.


Why Russia is not exposing this cover up is another mind boggling matter.


Canada has taken a bold step.


The Vatican should wake up and take the lid out before it is too late.

Inspiration or conspiracy?

Inspiration or conspiracy?

I believed the knowledge of religion, science, politics and philosophy would lead us (particularly me) to inspiration.

Is it?
Is it true?

To be precise, it is on the contrary.

It actually led me to start a book (pathetic though) on conspiracies of the last century.

Not inspirational by any stretch of imagination.
We are led on wrong garden path over a century.
We are not making amends.

We are on course of the same morbid path.

This is why I postulated that we do not have credible guys/girls on this planet to lead the way.

We need aliens help, ideally humanoids but not reptilians with hidden agenda!

Let me dissect the basic premise of each of the above disciplines.

Religion (especially Vatican) is leading us on the wrong path.

Scientists are conspiring (not me).

Philosophy is overtaken by science and virtually a dead species.

Politics, democracy and referendums are polarizing people on opposite poles.

All the above are meant to be educational stuff.

No consensus emerging by trying to integrate the above disciplines.

So they go on a short vacation / vocation on a meditation course.

They return after an individual bliss of some sort but go back to their base prejudices instantaneously.

I believe trying to meditate and expecting inspiration to "come of" to you by default is a  fundamental fallacy.

If one does not have inspiration to begin with one would not achieve anything substantial by meditating.

The reason for me writing this is there is a breed of pseudo-scientists and paranormal entities coming  as suckers.

They come as "mediums" and "channels" and spread the very old conspiracies again and again.

Thinking to think on correct channels (Professor De Bono's approach) is what we need.
 
In Buddhist Meditation detachment of all these themes are encouraged!

How, I do not know.

The latest conspiracy is "Intelligent Design".

They are coming as bogus alien visitors ( masquerading as new Gods).

In the meantime, the prudent aliens are still pondering "Is it worth visiting these lowly earthly beings."

History Repeats

History Repeats
On Feb. 14, 1979, less than one month after the shah of Iran’s exile, the U.S. Embassy in Tehran was overrun by Iranian militants.
Within hours, it was returned to U.S. hands. Now on notice that our diplomats were stationed on a vulnerable outpost in a sea of anti-Americanism, the Carter administration considered, but rejected, closing the embassy. In October, President Carter permitted the shah – despised by Iranians and the regime that replaced his – to enter the United States. Days later, Iranians climbed the embassy gates again, took the Americans there hostage and demanded the shah’s return, beginning a 444-day crisis.
There are no do-overs in history, but there are lessons.
The 1979 hostage crisis should have taught us the importance of proactively responding to obvious threats and removing vulnerable targets — a lesson that should be applied now if there are U.S. nuclear weapons based in Turkey.

There are no do-overs in history, but there are lessons. The 1979 hostage crisis should have taught us the importance of proactively responding to obvious threats and removing vulnerable targets — a lesson that should be applied now if there are U.S. nuclear weapons based in Turkey.
After a faction within the Turkish military tried to overthrow the Turkish government last month, one of the many arrested for his alleged role in the attempted coup was a commanding officer at the Incirlik Air Base. That base — according to numerous media reports — is a major NATO installation hosting one of the largest stockpiles of nuclear weapons in Europe.
What if the Turkish base commander at Incirlik had ordered his troops surrounding the perimeter of the base to turn their guns on the U.S. soldiers that reportedly guard U.S. nuclear storage bunkers there?
What if anti-American Turkish protesters, believing the U.S. was behind the coup plot and that it was harboring the coup’s leader (ominously reminiscent of how Iranians felt about America and the shah 37 years ago) decided to march on Incirlik chanting anti-American and anti-Israeli slogans (as has actually happened) and taken over the base?
Leaving aside the coup, what if Islamic State were to attack Incirlik?

In March, the Pentagon reportedly ordered military families out of southern Turkey, primarily from Incirlik, due to terrorism-related security concerns.

While we’ve avoided disaster so far, we have ample evidence that the security of U.S. nuclear weapons stored in Turkey can change literally overnight. 

Now fully aware of the dangers, the Obama administration should remove any remaining nuclear weapons from Turkey – and the next president should remove all U.S. nuclear weapons from Europe.
We are in for a long stretch of political uncertainty in Turkey, exacerbated by growing anti-Americanism.
Granted, as one American analyst has pointed out, any U.S. nuclear weapons stored in Turkey “would be defended by ferociously well-trained and well-equipped American troops.
Maintaining control of the weapons would be the top priority if seizure was ever threatened, with all of America’s military power put to the task.”

Well, if that’s the case being made to President Obama, he should ask:
Why would I or any American president take that risk?
We are in for a long stretch of political uncertainty in Turkey, exacerbated by growing anti-Americanism.
Any U.S. nuclear weapons stored there are more likely to complicate than to improve the domestic political currents in play. The U.S. will (and should) remain a strong ally and friend of Turkey, and Turkey will (and should) remain in NATO. 
It is shared interests, not nuclear sharing, that will keep us together.
Nuclear deterrence does not require the U.S. to store nuclear bombs in Turkey, or elsewhere in Europe.
The U.S. has long-range “strategic” nuclear weapons to ward off hostile powers and guarantee the security of all NATO allies. 
But since the end of the Cold War, most military leaders believe that our short-range “tactical” nuclear weapons based in Europe have virtually no utility, for the simple reason that no U.S. president is likely to use them.
Some may argue that we should not remove nuclear weapons from Turkey because we don’t want to signal lack of confidence in Turkey’s stability; or that we need tactical weapons throughout Europe because we need to bolster NATO members who are worried about Russia.
Now weigh those arguments against the fact that storing tactical nuclear weapons in Turkey and in other NATO nations comes with the increasing risk of vulnerability to an evolving and more deadly terrorist threat, or to domestic unrest. In the wake of an incident at a nuclear storage site — for which the U.S. would be held accountable and suffer long-term consequences with allies — it would be difficult to explain that vulnerable targets were left in place due to a perceived need to reassure our allies.
As was the case in 1979, the warning bells are ringing.

How can we solve climate change?

Ryan Cooper

How can we solve climate change?
One option is obvious, if a bit strange: If dumping carbon dioxide into the atmosphere is the problem, then we could always suck it back out.
If you think that sounds tricky, congratulations, you're correct. However, scientists are increasingly relying on just this idea to construct workable future scenarios where global warming does not spin out of control. And the reason is that governments around the world have not been remotely equal to the task of keeping overall warming below 2 degrees Celsius, the level at which climate change becomes unacceptably risky according to the international Paris climate accords.
As a result, scientists crunching the numbers on how humanity might achieve this goal are increasingly leaning on outlandish assumptions about pulling billions of tons of carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere. The math checks out — but the science is not guaranteed to work, and it would be a lot easier to just implement proper climate policy right now.
Here's the basic shape of climate change. In order to stay below 2 degrees, humanity can emit a sum total of roughly 1 trillion tonnes of carbon dioxide for all time. Emissions in 2014 were about 32 billion tonnes. We're headed towards that limit at high speed — so to stay below it (without pulling anything out of the air) humanity must cut its emissions very fast, very soon.
Now, world emissions may have actually declined slightly in 2015 — an encouraging sign, but a temporary one. Renewable energy has been advancing fast, but it's massive structural change and economic chaos in China alone that is responsible for the decline, not any sort of worldwide systematic attack on use of fossil fuels. What's more, developing countries — particularly India — are projected to emit a lot more as their economies grow. As I noted two years ago, even if 2014 were to be a permanent emissions peak, staying under 2 degrees would require a crash course of decarbonization never seen in history outside of economic collapse.
So the only escape hatch is to pull carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere. In a new paper in Geophysical Research Letters, Benjamin M. Sanderson, Brian O'Neill, and Claudia Tibaldi examined what it would take to achieve the targets contained in the Paris climate accords — and most of their plausible future scenarios involve a years-long period of immense carbon dioxide removal. One plausible scenario for this involves biofuels (which would grow by pulling carbon out of the air, like any plant), and then sequestering the emissions far underground after the fuel is burned.
Staying under 2 degrees can happen if we get to net zero emissions on a fairly moderate course by 2085, for example — but it would require a long-term effort taking some 26 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere every year.
This sort of thinking is becoming more and more common as climate policy remains woefully insufficient. A pseudonymous scientist notes:
What I think is interesting is that negative emissions and temperature overshoots seem to now [be] becoming part of the narrative. One obvious reason for this is that we’re on the verge of leaving it too late to achieve these targets without them. We could still do so, but it would probably require drastic emissions reductions starting now... [And Then There's PhysiHow can we solve climate change?

If we procrastinate much longer, it's going to be nearly impossible to stay under that 2 degree limit. Meanwhile, climate change itself marches on.
The last year has shattered temperature records across the globe, and seen multiple disasters of the sort predicted by climate models.
The most powerful El Niño ever recorded has caused the worst recorded instance of coral bleaching, particularly hammering Australia's Great Barrier Reef and the Maldives. Roads are buckling across Alaska as permafrost melts. Record heat in Siberia led to an anthrax outbreak among humans and reindeer.
The politics of climate change always seem tough. But it should be noted that it will be vastly easier to head the problem off now than it will be to fix it after we've let it fester for another couple decades. Carbon dioxide emissions are the product of several gigantic industries today. Creating a brand new industry to reverse the damage of other massive industries will be a terrifically expensive logistical nightmare.
And there's also no guarantee that it will work on the scale required! Technologies to scrub carbon from the atmosphere are still in the early development stage. Historically, human ingenuity has solved such problems — but there's no guarantee it will happen, especially if it needs to be done very fast. It's completely possible we'll run into unsolvable technical bottlenecks, and be forced to rely on hugely risky Hail Mary geoengineering efforts like partially blotting out the sun with sulfur dioxide.
Don't think of technology predictions 70 years out as a promise. Acting to prevent climate change as soon as possible is always going to be the smart move.

Planet and Plans


Planet and Plans


I have written an enormous amount of scientific stuff (not proclamations but predictions) over the past 15 years, it is prudent to summarize few facts without figures.


Figures can be manipulated or changed or doctored by American and British scientific forums but facts emerging are worrisome.


1. Global warming is happening alarmingly fast and it cannot be reversed.


2. The scientists knew this from early sixties but under pressure by “fossil fuel lobby” and BP reality was kept under their iron thumb.


3. The agreement on “fossil fuel protocol" was deliberately delayed by USA.


4. Sixth mass extinction is well underway.


5. Strangely aliens (strictly humanoids) have visited us to warn on other issues but Americans suppressed the information for 70 years.


6. The Vatican was preview to most of this information and kept it in their archives for posterity.


7. I am not sure what was the status of Israel (proxy) on all these issues but their priority was water.


This is written with alien visitation in mind and I try to make prediction not so outrageous.


In spite of many planets in the universe humanoids are very few.


Their (humanoid) evolution goes into billion of years but earth is the youngest of all.


Why?


I do not know but my observations (not scientific by any means) are a forerunner for future investigations with the help of alien technology.


Earth is the only planet with abundance of water in the whole universe.


The abundance of biodiversity (not god's creation by the way) is not seen anywhere in the whole universe.


That the my crunch point of view.


We are polluting of our water resources including the ocean.

All industrial countries are dumping their waste from faeces to lead to mercury to nuclear waste to the ocean.

In time to come biodiversity (including fish) in the ocean will disappear.


Eating sea fish will be poisonous.


Nuclear industry with few more accidents will tip the balance of nature.


The sixth extinction is man made catastrophe.


The seventh extinction is man made but final.


The five or so humanoid who are trying to contact us want to help us come out of this crisis.


But we are not ready for galactic brotherhood or corporation due to bizarre religions.


The cosmic rules prevent from worthwhile dialogue unless we lift our mental agility (one may cal lit spiritual ability).


My biggest and the real fear is aliens who are not humanoids are with the American Scientists to spoil the soup.


That is why they are keeping Roswell incident under cover.


These aliens want us to destroy ourselves, so that they reap benefit and occupy the earth as their new territory.


The Americans got it wrong.


I hope Russia and President Putin would fill the vacuum.

Russians does not believe in any religions.

China is not ready and woken up lately. 

Obama or next Us President cannot since, the evangelists won't let it happen.

Rarity of Humanoids


Rarity of Humanoids






Below is a reproduction of various types of beings in the universe or galaxies

The Thirty-one Planes of Existence
Scattered throughout the suttas are references to as many as thirty-one distinct "planes" or "realms" of existence into which beings can be reborn during their long wandering through samsara. These range from the extraordinarily grim and painful hell realms all the way up to the most exquisitely refined and blissful heaven realms. Existence in every realm is temporary; in Buddhist cosmology there is no eternal heaven or hell. Beings are born into a particular realm according to their past kamma. When they pass away, they take rebirth once again elsewhere according to the quality of their kamma: wholesome actions bring about a favorable rebirth, while unwholesome actions lead to an unfavorable one.
The realms of existence are customarily divided into three distinct "worlds" (loka), listed here in descending order of refinement:
 
The realms of existence are customarily divided into three distinct "worlds" (loka), listed here in descending order of refinement:

    1. The Immaterial World (arupa-loka).
    Consists of four realms that are accessible to those who pass away while meditating in the formless jhanas. 

    2. The Fine-Material World (rupa-loka).
    Consists of sixteen realms whose inhabitants (the devas) experience extremely refined degrees of mental pleasure. These realms are accessible to those who have attained at least some level of jhana and who have thereby managed to (temporarily) suppress hatred and ill will. They are said to possess extremely refined bodies of pure light. The highest of these realms, the Pure Abodes, are accessible only to those who have attained to "non-returning," the third stage of Awakening. The Fine-Material World and the Immaterial World together constitute the "heavens" (sagga).

    3. The Sensuous World (kama-loka).
    Consists of eleven realms in which experience — both pleasurable and not — is dominated by the five senses. Seven of these realms are favorable destinations, and include our own human realm as well as several realms occupied by devas.
    The lowest realms are the four "bad" destinations, which include the animal and hell realms.


I. The Immaterial World (arupa-loka)

Realm Comments Cause of rebirth here
(31) Neither-perception-nor-non-perception (nevasaññanasaññayatanupaga deva)
(30) Nothingness (akiñcaññayatanupaga deva)
(29) Infinite Consciousness (viññanañcayatanupaga deva)
(28) Infinite Space (akasanañcayatanupaga deva)
The inhabitants of these realms are possessed entirely of mind.
Having no physical body, they are unable to hear Dhamma teachings.

These devas enjoy sense pleasures created by others for them.
Mara, the personification of delusion and desire, lives here.

(5) Human beings (manussa loka)

Rebirth as a human being is extraordinarily rare.

It is also extraordinarily precious, as its unique balance of pleasure and pain facilitates the development of virtue and wisdom to the degree necessary to set one free from the entire cycle of rebirths.

The development of virtue and wisdom
The attainment of stream-entry (sotapatti) guarantees that all future rebirths will be in the human or higher realms.

(4) Asuras (asura)
The demons — "titans" — that dwell here are engaged in relentless conflict with each other.

This realm includes all the non-human forms of life that are visible to us under ordinary circumstances: animals, insects, fish, birds, worms, etc.
(1) Hell (niraya)
These are realms of unimaginable suffering and anguish.
Should not be confused with the eternal hell found in other religious traditions, since one's time here is — as it is in every realm — temporary.


Heaven

In Buddhist cosmology, the heaven realms are blissful abodes whose present inhabitants (the devas) gained rebirth there through the power of their past meritorious actions. Like all beings still caught in samsara, however, these deities eventually succumb to aging, illness, and death, and must eventually take rebirth in other realms — pleasant or otherwise — according to the quality and strength of their past kamma. The devas are not always especially knowledgeable or spiritually mature — in fact many are quite intoxicated by their sensual indulgences — and none are considered worthy of veneration or worship.
Nevertheless, the devas and their happy realms stand as important reminders to us both of the happy benefits that ensue from the performance of skillful and meritorious deeds and, finally, of the ultimate shortcomings of sensuality.
