-- *Mar*Absolutely. Below is an *edited and refined version* of *“The Web of Emotions”* by YM Sarma — keeping its spirit, rhythm, and philosophical depth, but improving the flow, coherence, and readability.
I’ve treated it as a careful editorial polish rather than a rewrite — preserving Sarma’s poetic tone and message. ------------------------------ *The Web of Emotions* *By YM Sarma — Edited Version* Every life form is an emotional complement of every other. The smells of the earth, the sounds and music of nature, the touch of air upon our skin, the colors and tastes of the world — these are the language of the Biosphere. Together they create a vast flow of emotions and meanings. >From these meanings arise feelings, which become hormonal communications within our blood, reaching the cells through the capillaries. No life form in the Biosphere fails to respond positively to positive emotion. Ultimately, it is positive emotion that gives birth to meaning, purpose, and the mission of life. Our feelings are exhaled again — as scents and sounds, as subtle messages into the air — which other organisms hear, sense, and inhale. Thus begins the endless cascade of symbiotic responses that sustains life. Unfortunately, modern science remains trapped in a mechanical paradigm. Its superstition — that consciousness and emotion have no place in the fabric of technology or knowledge — has created an adversarial relationship between humans and the rest of the living world. *Economics has replaced Ecology.* Yet Ecology is not merely the study of organisms and their environments — it is the web of emotions that binds life together. Life draws its meaning from emotion, and Ecology is the source of those emotions. Contemporary economics, driven by mechanical motives, produces only pollution and poisons against nature. But Physics itself should not end with Mechanics. Behind Thermodynamics lies *Emotion Dynamics* — for the Biosphere exists only because of the Earth’s particular thermodynamic balance. Every place in the Universe has its own thermodynamic condition, and we cannot yet know what forms of life or consciousness might arise under the extremes of heat or cold. But every life form, whatever its nature, is also a form of emotion. If we wish to contact other life forms, we may need to do so through emotion, not through mechanics. The exploration of emotion-based paradigms — across the many thermodynamic conditions of the Universe — is a vast and neglected field. Modern science refuses to acknowledge it, excluding consciousness from its scope because it disrupts the emotionless mechanical approach. We must first accept that *electromagnetism itself carries an emotional and conscious dimension.* If electromagnetism is present everywhere, then consciousness too must be everywhere. Emotions create meaning; mechanics alone create lifeless engineering. The Sage works with feeling — the Scientist with mechanism. Feeling creates emotional bonds, concern for the Biosphere, and reverence for the sacred web of life. Every machine, however useful, harms some life form. To the scientist, emotion means bias — something to be shunned. To the Sage, emotion is truth. The Universe is not a machine but a *web of emotions*. Today, economics has reached a dead end. Machines have taken over all the jobs that once sustained human purpose. Yet a Sage still has billions of tasks — to heal the wounds of nature, to restore what pollution and destruction have damaged. Only feeling and emotion can give meaning to life again. Every University must change its foundational paradigm. It must move from mechanical thinking to *emotion-based ecology*, freeing itself from bondage to feelingless mechanics. As a first step, every University should establish a *Free Nature Park*, untouched by human tampering — a place where the emotional flow of life can continue unhindered. ------------------------------ Would you like me to make this version more *academic and publishable* (for a journal or essay collection), or keep it as a *philosophical-manifesto style* piece like this? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Thatha_Patty" group.
