The Life

Life is the most intriguing question in the mind of humans whether they are scientists or priests, intelligent or dumb, men or women, whoever they are- once in their life they would have come in a situation where they ask- What is life? The answer to this question makes the difference between these people. 

What is life actually? 

Regarding science, the difference between living and non-living organisms is biological processes. It describes life through different biological processes such as eating, drinking, excretion, reproduction, etc. The reason behind its existence is yet to be discovered. Where there is no direct knowledge, we make our hypothesis and then start working on it. Such a hypothesis can be termed as philosophy. The answer to this question lies in it. 

What does philosophy say about life?

The reason behind the existence of life is not specific. We generally associate it with "God". The concept of God is such that if you do not understand it well then it becomes the "opium of the people" and when you understand it well then it becomes your real strength. The concept of "God" will be explained in another blog. Here for this purpose, the creation of human beings is not because God wanted. The reason behind life is "Just like that". 

The Big Bang theory explains how this universe was created. The Universe is formed of two things i.e. energy and matter. And if we see the equation E=MC2 then we find energy and matter are also one thing. These two things in Indian philosophy are called Shiv and Shakti. The whole universe is created through these two things. It is just the different forms of these two things. 

The Bhagwad Geeta also says that the soul can never be destroyed. It just changes the bodies as we change our clothes. Science is also saying that energy cannot be created or destroyed, it just changes its forms. 

THERE IS NO ONE BEHIND THE CREATION OF HUMANS. WE ARE JUST CREATED JUST LIKE THAT. 

The reason behind this statement is that many people personify the concept of God. Let us understand through an example. There is a lake. This lake will have ice pieces when winter comes and will melt away when summer comes. Now, the question is who created this ice? Is the answer personified being? No, the answer is that ice is created when a suitable environment is there. Just like that, we human beings are created. We human beings will perish when the environment will not suit us. Now, one can say that the favourable environment is created by God. Its answer lies in the next post.

Applicability of Probation of Offenders Act, 1958

By
  The Probation of Offenders Act, 1958 is a reformative legislation which was enacted to reform convicts. There is one aspect of its applicability and that is this Act does not apply to the Statutes which are enacted later than this Act and mentions the minimum punishment. The Supreme Court in the case of  Superintendent, Central Excise v. Bahubali [i]   held that “ where there is a statute which bars the exercise of judicial discretion in matter of award of sentence, the Probation of Offenders Act will have no application or relevance. ” Later, the Supreme Court while giving more clarification on this issue held in the case of  State through S.P., New Delhi v. Ratan Lal Arora [ii]   that “  in cases where a specific enactment, enacted after the Probation Act prescribes a minimum sentence of imprisonment, the provisions of Probation Act cannot be invoked if the special Act contains any provision to enforce the same without reference to any other Act contain...

Justice

By
 JUSTICE The foundation of the State is based on justice. The State (King) has a duty to ensure justice in society. The whole legal system is formed to ensure justice in society. In this blog, I will try to explain the meaning of the term "justice".   NYAYA The word "Nyaya" does not literally translate into Justice. If we read in the Nyaya Sutras of Mahrishi Gautam, we find that "Nyaya" means logic. It is the logic that helps us find the truth, serving as the connecting point or medium through which we discover it. However, in the legal system, justice is not solely about finding the truth. If it were, there would not be acquittals on the grounds of doubt. In our legal system, an accused person is acquitted if the prosecution cannot meet the burden of proof beyond a reasonable doubt.  The correct meaning of the word "Justice" in our legal system would be "a balance of rights and interests of the members of the society". In one aspect, i...
