IS LITERATURE A SCIENCE?
-Seshendra Sharma
Visionary Poet of the Millennium
"Can literature be treated slightingly? My friend relegated literature to the position of a pass time and considered it with no more value. This was done by him in contrast to the great material sciences which alone are held by him in high esteem as products of intellect and objects worthy of man's pursuit. I have to think that this mistake arises out of an erroneous attitude towards literature or failure to have come across correct and ideal forms of literature or not having sufficiently exercised his mind in the matter of proper appreciation of its purposes and functions. Looked at from the correct perspective, literature has a high place in the general scheme of human knowledge. It can only be ranked with the great sciences, because - All the various sciences explain so many species of living and non-living matter or so many stages of evolution as for instance, inorganic matter is explained by inorganic chemistry, plants explained by botany, Animals by biology and finally man by physiology and so on and so forth. After creation reached the stage of man, a new chapter has opened and an unprecedented course takes in the line of creation. That is, as seen never before in nature, man began to change the environment to suit his life unlike his preceding species which changed themselves to suit the changing environment and life. so after the augury of the new chapter, the latest species, namely man, undergoing physical change by any environmental change, and thereby perpetuate the line of evolution in such terms, was elated once for all. However it is difficult to say as to how long this history of man will continue without evolution of a new and more advanced species of life higher than man from the physical point of view. Nevertheless it is now possible to presage on the available data of historical, archeological and scientific material that man's evolution, or to be more correct, the furtherance of evolution of creation is not hereafter going to be towards the formation of new physical forms but it could be only towards the attainment of new intellectual and spiritual heights. But what does this new stage of evolution consist of? In fact we are 218 ™êÇ≤Ï`«º^Œi≈x now witnessing, the ever expanding horizons of mind and its immense potentialities. In the wake of this development pursuit of human knowledge has finally culminated in the endeavour to understand the inscrutable and mysterious behaviour and phenomenon of human mind. To unravel the tangled fabric of mental process, its reactions, its effects, its vagaries etc., and to delve deep into the dark recesses of its abysmal bowels and cull out its treasured secrets, has become the final and the most interesting enterprise of man. In the wake of this glorious enterprise arose the phantoms of psychology, occult sciences, yoga, philosophy, literature and ever so many activities of superb inexactitude. Literature seeks to explain the emotional and the intellectual stage of the evolving man. For a more precise expression, I should say it endeavours to explain the latest stage of man's evolution or creation's evolution, for that matter. The extent of knowledge so far mankind acquired, of the internal and the external universes, only indicates the history of our mind and its evolution But literature particularly that form of it, dealing with the intricate fibres of human feelings and sentiments, explains to us, of what the mind has come to be, that is, its ways, its capacities and caprices. The role has not been played by any science or any branch or form of human pursuit except literature. My friend, of course rises the contention that psychology is exactly the department of knowledge which fulfils this purpose; but I feel it is only as much as to say that organic chemistry reveals the secret of sugar's taste. The said science, at best, can only explain the composition and the texture of the chemical compound Sugar, but by no means it can pretend to explain its effect on human tongue, Similarly psychology can evolve certain principles and indicate by certain symbols, the broad outlines of the forces at work behind the mental processes, as for instance, the principles underlying its behaviour in the case of the 'Oedipus' complex. So this aspect of mind is best explained only by literature and never adequately by psychology because this part of human personality or being can never be clearly grappled by a system of knowledge which tends to postulate and reduce itself into mere symbols and principles which are called science. This aspect of our being is so vague, so deep, so inlaid in the darkest regions of mind that our very language fails very âı¿+O„^Œ 219 often to hold it in its grip. How then, can a narrow symbolical and inflexible system achieve the purpose? It needs a very comprehensive and flexible method to hold the entire range of this very illusive and exclusive subject in an extensive and grand sweep; and that is done by literature alone. Psychology is not even its poor substitute because its purpose can be seen to be different by a subtle anatomy of the science. If psychology is the dynamics of mind, we can say literature is its science of properties of matter. That appears to be broadly speaking, their relationship to each other. Yet another comparison may be given, If psychology is the grammer of mind literature is its prosody. Finally I would even go to the extent of saying, that the place of literature cannot be taken by any science-form to achieve the same purpose. The system, with which you have to understand this particular aspect of man's mind has got to be only an artform. Thus literature may be said to be performing the role of science though not in its exact garb. So literature demands to be elevated to a revered and indispensible position in the grand gallery of human knowledge.

Rivers and poets
Are veins and arteries
Of a country.
Rivers flow like poems
For animals, for birds
And for human beings-
The dreams that rivers dream
Bear fruit in the fields
The dreams that poets dream
Bear fruit in the people-
•* * * * *
The sunshine of my thought fell on the word
And its long shadow fell upon the century
Sun was playing with the early morning flowers
Time was frightened at the sight of the martyr-

"We are children of a century which has seen revolutions, awakenment of large masses of people over the earth and their emancipation from slavery and colonialism wresting equality from the hands of brute forces and forging links of brotherhood across mankind.
This century has seen peaks of human knowledge; unprecedented intercourse of peoples and
perhaps for the first time saw the world stand on the brink of the dilemma of one world or destruction.
It is a very inspiring century, its achievements are unique.
A poet who is not conscious of this context fails in his existence as poet."

The "Teaching Window" is dedicated to George Boole and depicts his favourite passage from the Bible - "The Calling of Samuel". Funds for the window were raised by his friends in Lincoln and the content was suggested by his wife.
Underneath the window is a plaque that reads: "In memory of George Boole, Dr of Laws, of Lincoln. A man of acute intellect and manifold learning, who, being especially exercised in the severer sciences, diligently explored the recesses of mathematics and happily illuminated them by his writings. He was carried off by an untimely death in 1864."
George's father John Boole's grave is located to the southeast of the cathedral. He was one of George's main influencers as he grew up. “George Boole, the father of the modern electronic world we live in today
George boole jnr was born on silver street in lincoln on November 2nd 1815 and died December 8th 1864 was a self taught mathematician, philosopher and most importantly to us living now a locigian, boole is the man responsible for the creation of the and or not gates used in circuits and computing
In the last 17 years of his life he had established the concept of algebraic logic in mathematics, and simplified the world down to basic statements with either a yes or no answer, for which he used binary arithmetic. "The respective interpretations of the symbols 0 and 1 in the system of logic are Nothing and Universe," he said. It was a concept he first introduced in 1847, and expanded on in 1854. But even now, 150 years after his death, it's used in computer programs
Theres a sync found numerically here with the year 1854 and the cathedral its self which seems rather coincidental but..
The George boole window, Lincoln cathedral = 1854 / 147 (the cathedral is 147 meters long)
All data on computer systems is stored as code either 0's or 1's this we know is binary code, this is all a computer needs its either yes voltage or no voltage so plus or not compared to the that that we use 0-9, these yes voltage or no voltage signals create logic gates, these gates are what makes computer chips work the way that they do it makes them programmable therefore useful to us
George lived from November 2nd 1815 until December 8th 1964 which creates a span of 2,562 weeks, the number 256 is a number that is very important in our world because not only is it part of light coding but it is also part of computer coding as bits of information 256 bits, the first high definition gaming console to use 256 bits was the xbox 360
128x2 = 256 (death date 12/8)
With lincoln being the birthplace of George boole it's only fitting that the city celebrates him as one of the most important people that has ever lived, a son of the city, and the literal creator of our modern computerised world, within Lincoln cathedral he is celebrated, he gas one windown dedicated to him by his wife after his death in 1864 from pleural effusion on 12/8-1864 he was 49 years old and contracted his pleural effusion whilst walking to give a lecture to students in the rain, the window was installed in 1869 and is know as the teaching window, it was actually katie that read his name on the window and then our tour guide obviously highlighted him a little during our tour
The window depicts the calling of samuel from the bible, his widow fund raised for its creation along with his friends in Lincoln after his death in 1864 (164)
Logic gate = 164
The teaching window, Lincoln cathedral = 1028 in primes gematria which links to his death date of December 8th or 12/8
George was born in 1815 and became a teacher aged just 16 years old (16 bits) and went on to found two schools in his lifetime in the city
George boole had attended his first class aged just 2 years old and by the time he was 19 he was lecturing in Lincoln on another famous local Isaac Newton. His passion for education and learning led him to found two schools in the city one in Free School Lane in 1834 and one at Pottergate in 1840? Neither exist today, but a plaque can be seen at the site of the Boarding School for Young Gentlemen on Pottergate, he was responsible for lots of mathematical theories in his life but he made it very clear that this is what he wished to be remembered for
Anyway that's enough, it's very clear how important his work was especially if you consider 'the matrix' I hope you enjoyed my little history lesson” Stuart Trayner on Facebook
