Well, the topic started with concern for chinese citizen and is switched to sending man to moon.
In my view whether it is America, India, China, Pakistan, Afganistan or Somalia( my special concern for these 2 countrymen) etc.., a common man is still ruled by their own greedy country men. It is no doubt he will get external support, may also include their own country’s enemy to exploit fellow citizen. Unless common realize and excercise their strength and come united for good cause no one can help them.
Here goes my view on technology and misery. After all what did we achieve on earth on misery by sending man to moon? We only increased or helped the greedy to to make use of technology, make more business, become their slaves thats all. How far the eligible troubled are helped by tech? I am not advocating ban on technology.. Thanks to internet i could learn many things everyday and share what ever found authentic. My concern is motive behind tech advancement. We are able to reach any corner of world with few cents / paise thourgh satellite links. Are we able to reach the hungry man and fulfil his needs with few rupees atleast? Being avid science studen I am also regular visitor to Astronomy Picture of the Day from past 5 yrs. There are so many queries aroused and mysteries still unanswered. Especially conducive living place for human being apart from earth. 2 rovers are successfully working from past couple of yrs to find life on Mars. Sent a probe to Titan found only methane pool. We have such a beautiful earth to live and why are we spoiling it.
From a reference about physics/science/tech…
The classical world-view of physics must give way to the currently emerging worldview. Physics/tech/science at present is a training which is creating human slaves with unmotivated, directionaless strength, who are waiting to be finaced by and to be employed by some agencies who have the power to do so. It is thus not the knowledge and the wisdom which gives direction to the society, releases the social and environmental energies to contribute to a rich vibrant human culture, and is not linked to that universal wisdom which makes as indivudual realize himself, and release him or her from all the wordly pettiness.
