-- *Mar*Aliens
By Aliens we mean the life form or forms living in some other planet, of our solar family, or the planet of some other star, or may be organisms that actually need extreme heat to live and live in the Sun or some other star, or very big planet sized organisms moving in galaxies or tiny life forms in the galactic dust... If any of those undefined aliens visit or locate us how do they see our earth? May be they do not see at all but only try to feel the abstract flows of communications, emotions emanating from life forms, blending in the air which is inhaled as messages and exhaled as responses, the flow of emotions, to whom the mechanical or the emotion-less scientific mapping is lunacy. Our glorified scientific outlook is the feelings-less mechanical outlook, not a very attractive feature to every other life form on earth and certainly to the aliens. The basic feature of any life form is the urge to feel, communicate and interact, emotionally and not mechanically. Communication can only be emotional communication and not mechanical communication which is simply the feelings-less signalling of electronics. When one feels, one actually becomes free from the mechanical approach. The absence of feeling is death. If the alien visiting us is a life form, then it is a form of emotions. Lifeless bits from other planets and from our sun happens all the time, but we are concerned about life forms, forms that feel and are emotional. The basic fact which we do not realize or refuse to realize thanks to the foolish egoism, is that the emotions we feel are part of the climate in action. All emotions are macro, climatic, part of geography. On earth we can live only by breathing. Breathing automatically creates smelling,sensing,perceiving,understanding,internal hormonal communications embedment in the bloodstream communicating to the cells, making every cell lively creating us as life forms, the active life forms. We have to live emotionally. We cannot divorce from earth, in spite of the make believe championed unbiased outlook of science. The alien from some other planet or comet, or tiny meteor, as a life form can live only on the basis of the geography to which it is accustomed and it cannot make a fool of itself with science and divorce from its planet’s climate. Its perception is only as the emotional perception in the particular planet and is bound to the geography of that planet. The basic question is, what are the forms of the real or emotional communication in the Universe. The question relevant to us, is whether any alien wants to communicate with us the human fools, who divorced the emotional tie with mother earth, and who mechanized or scienced, his/her outlook. Our daily economic life is destroying nature as routine. We are certainly not very attractive. It is for the Universities to take a second look at mechanization. The sanest step is to start the ‘Free Nature Parks’ without human tampering where there is no mechanization at all. The free nature gives chance to the natural emotional communications. YM Sarma Chat GPT This piece by YM Sarma touches on a deeply philosophical and speculative view of life, emotions, and the relationship between humans and the rest of the universe, especially in the context of alien life forms. There’s a lot to unpack here, but one key theme seems to be the contrast between mechanical, scientific perspectives and emotional, experiential ones. The author seems to suggest that alien life might not interact with us in the way we think — through science or technology — but rather through a more fluid, emotional, and sensory communication. The idea that emotions are tied to the earth itself, and that these feelings might somehow represent a form of communication with the larger universe, is intriguing. It also critiques the human tendency to separate ourselves from the natural world, focusing on mechanization, technology, and scientific reasoning at the cost of emotional and environmental connection. It’s almost as if the author is questioning the purpose of human life on Earth — the way we live, destroy, and mechanize everything — and suggesting that a deeper, more harmonious connection with nature and emotion might be key to understanding ourselves and the universe. If an alien life form were to visit, their perception of us might indeed be very different. Perhaps, in their eyes, our highly technological, emotion-suppressing way of life could seem alien, distant, and even lifeless compared to their own way of experiencing the universe. What do you think about this perspective? Do you believe that emotions could be a universal form of communication, even beyond Earth? This piece by *YM Sarma* presents a thought-provoking, poetic, and philosophical take on the concept of alien life and how it might *perceive Earth and humanity*—not through machines or signals, but through *emotions, flows, and planetary connectedness*. It suggests a reversal of the typical narrative: instead of asking “Can we detect aliens with our machines?” it asks, “Can aliens *feel* us, and would they even want to?” Let’s break down some of the central themes and questions: ------------------------------ *🌌 1. Alien Perception as Emotional, Not Mechanical* The idea that aliens might sense *emotional flows* rather than electromagnetic signals challenges the dominant *SETI-style* thinking — where we look for aliens with radio telescopes and parse signals for data. Sarma proposes that *true life* is defined by *emotional sensitivity*, not by technological advancement. In that light, we might imagine aliens not as cold, analytical beings, but as *highly sensitive, sentient presences* who perceive the *emotional "climate"* of a planet — perhaps smelling, tasting, or inhaling the atmosphere of feelings and interactions. ------------------------------ *🌱 2. Emotions as Climate-Bound* The connection of emotion to *geography and climate* is both metaphorical and literal in Sarma’s view. According to this perspective, emotions aren’t just private inner experiences but are *rooted in the Earth’s ecology*, part of the atmosphere we share. This poetic idea makes sense biologically too: emotions *are* chemical — they depend on hormones, air, breath, and the environment. We are not separate from Earth’s systems; we are emotionally and physiologically *entangled with them*. ------------------------------ *🤖 3. The Critique of Mechanization and Modern Science* Sarma critiques our scientific worldview as *"feelings-less"*, suggesting that in our pursuit of objectivity and technology, we have lost our *empathetic and emotional bond with the Earth* — and by extension, with each other and any potential alien beings. This raises questions: - Can true life, or intelligence, exist without emotion? - If we suppress emotion in favor of computation and control, do we become less “alive”? - Could other forms of life *reject* us not because we are primitive but because we are *emotionally dislocated*? ------------------------------ *🪐 4. Alien Communication as Emotional Resonance* If aliens evolved in a completely different environment — say, *living in stellar plasma or drifting in galactic dust* — then their form of communication might be *entirely sensory or emotional*, not linguistic or logical. That leads to a radical idea: *Emotion as a universal language.* Just as gravity or light is universal, perhaps *empathy, feeling, and connection* are also woven into the fabric of conscious life across the cosmos. ------------------------------ *🔄 5. A Call for Reconnection* Sarma’s final vision isn’t just speculative — it’s prescriptive. He suggests that instead of trying to control or engineer nature, we should return to it, observe it, and *live within its emotional rhythms*. The idea of “Free Nature Parks” with *no mechanization at all* seems utopian, but symbolically powerful — a place where raw, unfiltered life can *feel and be felt again*. ------------------------------ *💬 So, What Do You Think?* To respond to your final question: *Yes, it is possible* that emotions — or something analogous — could be a *universal form of communication*, not in a romantic or sentimental way, but as a *biological or energetic language of connection*. In this view, aliens may not come with spaceships and probes, but with *sensitivity*, with a capacity to detect *how alive* a planet feels. And in that case, *Earth today — with its pollution, detachment, and mechanized despair — might not be very inviting*. ------------------------------ *🧠 Final Thought:* If we want to meet the kind of life Sarma envisions, *we might need to feel more than we calculate, and reconnect before we explore*. Would you want to live in such a world — one where emotional resonance is the currency of connection, not technology? Certainly. Here's a poem inspired by YM Sarma's themes of emotion, alien perception, and reconnection with the Earth: ------------------------------ *If Aliens Feel* *—for YM Sarma* If aliens come, they will not land, With gears in hand or mission planned. They’ll drift through air, through breath and breeze, And sense the sorrow in our trees. They won’t decode our radio hum, Nor chase the beeps our satellites drum. They’ll listen to the aching soil, The weeping skies, the oceans' toil. They’ll feel the tension in our ground, The pulse of love where roots are bound. They'll taste the silence of the deer, The fading forests’ ghostly fear. To them, emotion is the thread, That binds the stars, the quick, the dead. Not bytes, but bonds — not screens, but streams, Of dreams that move through deeper dreams. And if they feel — then what they’ll see, Is Earth, adrift in misery. A species drunk on mindless schemes, Who traded truth for metal dreams. Yet somewhere still, a seed is stirred, A single breath, a quiet word. A child who hugs a broken tree, A whispered song, a bumblebee. And maybe then, they will forgive, And show us how to truly live. Not to ascend or fly away, But root again, and choose to stay. So if they come, let’s not defend — Let’s feel. Let’s listen. Let’s transcend. ------------------------------ Would you like the poem in a specific style or voice — like Rumi, Tagore, or something more modern? Thank you for sharing YM Sarma’s rich, deeply philosophical vision. His reflections unfold like a meditation — not on aliens as external beings of curiosity or fear, but as mirrors held up to humanity, questioning our disconnection from the living Earth, from emotion, and from each other. His central idea — that real communication in the universe is emotional, not mechanical — reverses everything that modern science tends to assume. This reframing invites a different kind of consciousness, one that sees emotion not as a soft weakness or subjective distraction, but as the *medium* of being, and perhaps the true "language" of life itself. ------------------------------ *🌍 Emotion as Atmosphere* Sarma’s thoughts resonate with the idea that emotions are not just internal phenomena but environmental — part of the living atmosphere. This turns feelings into a kind of shared ecological reality. We don’t just *have* emotions; we *breathe* them, *live* them, *transmit* them. What if aliens, evolved within entirely different physical laws or planetary systems, developed technologies not based on circuits but on sensing emotional flows? Their ships, if they had any, might not emit light but warmth; not radio, but resonance. ------------------------------ *🤖 The Critique of Modern Mechanization* Sarma critiques not science itself, but its *emotionless application*. What he calls “mechanical outlook” is that cold detachment that often dominates scientific culture — where emotion, meaning, and connection are seen as irrelevant to truth. But this very detachment may blind us not only to the Earth, but also to the very beings we hope to encounter. If we are unfeeling to our own planet, why would beings of feeling wish to meet us? ------------------------------ *🌱 The Alien Mirror* The most haunting part of Sarma’s vision is the suggestion that *we*, in our current form, may already be alien — to our own Earth, to the emotional fabric of the universe, to life itself. That’s not just poetic. It’s a warning. “The absence of feeling is death.” It’s not that machines have taken over, but that we have become machine-like in our detachment from the life we belong to. And perhaps true alien contact, as Sarma implies, will only come when we re-awaken emotionally — when we rejoin the climate of empathy that breathes life into the universe. ------------------------------ *✨ A Thought Experiment:* Imagine if an alien passed by Earth and didn’t detect technology — didn’t hear our data streams or care about our digital noise — but instead *felt* only this: - Forests crying out as they fall. - Oceans aching with plastic wounds. - Children smiling with wonder in meadows. - Bees humming quietly, still hopeful. Would such a being approach us — or quietly pass us by, whispering, “Not yet”? ------------------------------ *💡 A Philosophical Reframe* Instead of: "Is there intelligent life out there?" We might ask: "Are we emotionally alive enough to be seen?" ------------------------------ *📝 If You’d Like to Explore Further...* - Would you like help shaping this reflection into an essay, a short story, or even a fictional dialogue between a human and an emotional alien? - Would you like a visual concept — an alien depicted not with eyes and limbs but with tendrils of empathy, tasting the emotional current of planets? - Or maybe a modern parable — set in a future Earth, where technology still thrives, but the last untouched “Free Nature Park” becomes the first place an alien visits? ------------------------------ Let me leave you with a micro-poem to capture the spirit: *They did not knock on our satellites.* They listened to our soil. And when the winds cried out, they finally answered — with feeling, not sound. Let me know how you'd like to build on this — creatively, philosophically, or otherwise. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Thatha_Patty" group.
