I would like to cover the quotes of Max Karl Ernst Ludwig Planck, in short Max Planck. He was the originator of the Quantum theory in Physics which won him the Nobel Prize in 1918


Experiment is the only means of knowledge at our disposal. Everything else is poetry, imagination.

Max Planck
(1858-1947)

True! Experiment should be accompanied by accurate recording of the observations

and then the inference should be drawn from them. :laser:

 

[Visalakshi Ramani]

Science cannot solve ultimate mystery of nature and that is because in the last analysis, we ourselves are part of mystery that we trying to solve

Max Planck
(1858-1947)

That is why the vignaanam is limited but meignaanam is not!!! :thumb:

 

[Visalakshi Ramani]

All matter originates and exists only by virtue of a force which brings the particles of an atom to vibration and holds this minute solar system of the atom together....We must assume behind this force the existence of a conscious and intelligent mind. The mind is the matrix of all matter.

Max Planck
(1858-1947)

AND yet we still have people who say that THERE IS NO SUPERIOR POWER CALLED GOD

or the Universal Intelligence or the universal Consciousness! :shocked:

 

[Visalakshi Ramani]

Science…means unresting endeavor and continually progressing development toward an aim which the poetic intuition may apprehend, but the intellect can never fully grasp.

Max Planck
(1858-1947)

Intellect is based on the known facts and can only be limited but

the imagination and intuition have neither limits nor boundaries. :first:

 

[Visalakshi Ramani]

An experiment is a question which science poses to Nature and a measurement is the recording of Nature's answer

Max Planck
(1858-1947)

These are commonly known as experiment and observation.

 

[Visalakshi Ramani]

There can never be any real opposition between religion and science; for the one is the complement of the other. Every serious and reflective person realizes, I think, that the religious element in his nature must be recognized and cultivated if all the powers of the human soul are to act together in perfect balance and harmony. And indeed it was not by accident that the greatest thinkers of all ages were deeply religious souls

Max Planck
(1858-1947)

WE can't ponder about anything unless we also wonder about it first!

 

[Visalakshi Ramani]

We have no right to assume that any physical laws exist, or if they have existed up to now, that they will continue to exist in a similar manner in the future

Max Planck
(1858-1947)

NOTHING is certain except UNCERTAINTY!

 

[Visalakshi Ramani]

I regard consciousness as fundamental. I regard matter as derivative from consciousness. We cannot get behind consciousness. Everything that we talk about, everything that we regard as existing, postulates consciousness.

Max Planck
(1858-1947)

We Indians believe that there is an Atma in everything -
whether it is moving or non moving,
whether it is sentient or non sentient,
whether it can communicate or not communicate.
I believe that we are being watched by and heard by
everything that surrounds us, everywhere.
We are never really alone!!!

 

[Visalakshi Ramani]

Anybody who has been seriously engaged in scientific work of any kind realizes that over the entrance to the gates of the temple of science are written the words: 'Ye must have faith.'

Max Planck
(1858-1947)

Faith and hope are the two forces that keep us ticking despite all the odds!

 

[Visalakshi Ramani]

I had always looked upon the search for the absolute as the noblest and most worth while task of science.

Max Planck
(1858-1947)

GOD is the (direct or indirect) goal :angel:

for all the various quests of knowledge! :hail:

 

[Visalakshi Ramani]

The patient who faithfully follows the right diet and takes the proper medicine alone is perceived to recover from illness; no one recovers because another undergoes the treatment
Viveka Chudamani verse 53

It is good in a way. eace:

Otherwise the meek will be made to swallow :whip:

the bitter medicines of the Mighty! :yuck:

 

[Visalakshi Ramani]

காயமே கோயிலாகக்
கடிமனம் அடிமையாக

வாய்மையே தூய்மையாக
மனமணி இலிங்கமாக

நேயமே நெய்யும் பாலா
நிறையநீர் அமைய ஆட்டி

பூசனை ஈசனார்க்குப்
போற்றவிக் காட்டினோமே.
அப்பர்

இடிந்து பாழடைந்த வீட்டில் நல்லவன் கூறியிருக்க மாட்டான்.
அழுக்கான வீடும் அவனுக்கு சரிப்பட்டு வராது அல்லவா?
இறைவன் உலகின் தலைவன். நம் உடல் அவனது இருப்பிடம்.
தூயவன் வாழும் வகையில் காயத்தைத் தூய்மையாக
ஆக்கி வைப்பது ஒவ்வொரு மனிதனின் கடமையாகும்.

Lee Jun-fan aka Bruce Lee was a Chinese American..He is a greatest icon of martial arts cinema…A renowned martial arts instructor, action film actor and film maker. He died at a young age of 32 years..I am now going to share some of his famous quotes.

Do not pray for an easy life, pray for the strength to endure a difficult one.
Bruce Lee
(1940-1973)

 

[vgane]

Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way around or through it. If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves.

Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend

Bruce Lee
(1940-1973)

 

[vgane]

Mistakes are always forgivable, if one has the courage to admit them

Bruce Lee
(1940-1973)

 

[vgane]

Love is like a friendship caught on fire. In the beginning a flame, very pretty, often hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. As love grows older, our hearts mature and our love becomes as coals, deep-burning and unquenchable

Bruce Lee
(1940-1973)

 

[vgane]

If you always put limits on everything you do, physical or anything else, it will spread into your work and into your life. There are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them.

Bruce Lee
(1940-1973)

 

[vgane]

A wise man can learn more from a foolish question than a fool can learn from a wise answer

Bruce Lee
(1940-1973)

 

[vgane]

Knowing is not enough, we must apply. Willing is not enough, we must do.
Bruce Lee
(1940-1973)

 

[vgane]

I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who had practiced one kick 10,000 times

Bruce Lee
(1940-1973)

 

[vgane]

Empty your cup so that it may be filled; become devoid to gain totality

Bruce Lee
(1940-1973)

 

[vgane]

Always be yourself, express yourself, have faith in yourself, do not go out and look for a successfull personality and duplicate it

Bruce Lee
(1940-1973

Do not pray for an easy life, pray for the strength to endure a difficult one.
Bruce Lee

Easy life makes a person soft and dependent.
It is the tough life that makes a person tough
and fit for survival in this competitive world!

Bruce Lee
(1940-1973)

Fluid is something that can flow.
All liquids and gases are fluids.
True that a liquid can take any shape
since it molecules are loosely connected
unlike in a solid which has a definite shape.
Being flexible, pliable, adjustable and adjusting
does help in maintaining harmony to some extend.
But we must also know when and where to say
"This far and no further!" boldly. :hand:

 

[Visalakshi Ramani]

Mistakes are always forgivable, if one has the courage to admit them

Bruce Lee
(1940-1973)

I guess it is easier to admit one's mistakes
when they are NOT committed ON PURPOSE!
Naturally we can forgive them more easily.
