Hulusi Vs Hawking

"Know that the life of this world is but a sport and a pastime, a show and an empty boasting among yourselves. This world's life is naught but a means of deception."
(57:20). The Koran.
The Buddha is said to have declared a simmilar claim when He called the world that we are experienceing a world of illusion a world of Maya and the scientists has so clearly proven to us that all that we see and feel is not what they really are or things are not what they seem at least in the physical sense. When viewed under an extremely powerful telescope most scientists will tell you that we are but atoms fluttering around in space but that to the law of gravity we are being brought together all of us tiny- winnie little atoms to form who we are or what we are.

"In this book(A Brief History Of Time), I have given special prominence to the laws that govern gravity,because it is gravity that shapes the large- scale structure of the universe,.." Hawking

Everything that is apparent to us in this physical realm of existence is affected by the gravitational laws that governs the universe and this includes the microcosmic realm and to the spiritual realm. Man has been dwelling under the inffluences of the magnectic pull of the universe whether he realizes it or not and as such he has settled for the consequences as a matter of course. It took us millions of years(according to science) to learn to stand up from our beginning stages of crawling on our bellies, and we need to spend a good amount of time of our life laying down so that we can recover from the wearing out effect of an upright position and these due to the pull of gravity.As Humans we spend a great deal of our time and money to learn how to fly to be free from the laws of gravity, we all dream of being able to float freely as if in outer space. Hence spiriutally it has always been our yearn to be free from the bondage of this physical body which is subjected to the forces of gravity. We yearn for a liberation that would free us from such bondage.
