The Fundamental Law of Mother Nature

    RIDGEFIELD PARK, NJ, June 17, 2013 /24-7PressRelease/ -- "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." - John 1:1

God is showing us Who He is. God is the the Word and the Word is God.

It means God is Knowledge and Knowledge is God. Thus when God says in order to be blessed man must love God; it means that in order to be blessed by knowledge man must love knowledge. As Knowledge is God, knowledge is a very real living force that returns love for love.

In another context it seems that Mother Nature's laws/principles are her children that are in the form of forces. These forces/principles are very real. Mother Nature acts as the mother-in-law/elder who wants her children/forces to be showered with pure love and courted with undivided attention. She grants the devoted lover all the benefits of understanding the force that the lover has courted. Mother Nature says if you want to harness any of her secret forces; you have to be a full time lover and she will bestow the knowledge on you.

Take a student who say is researching some secret of physics. If the student pays no attention and studies half heartedly; it boils down to the student disrespecting physics. So physics which is a real force will in return disrespect the student and physics is the last thing the student will benefit from. One who fools with physics; physics will in turn fool with him. It is clear that physics as a very real force will return love for love and neglect with neglect.

On the other hand a student who is devoted to learning, researching, mastering and harnessing some particular mystery of physics; depending on the level of love and time given; Mother Nature will reward the student with the success of revealing her secret laws that the devoted student is seeking.

Look at Bill Gates; he fell in love with the computer/internet. He gave it his everything and devoted all his time to figuring out its secret principles. He gave up all other life and showered all his love to the forces that run the computer world. All this devotion resulted in these forces falling back in love with Bill Gates. These forces revealed themselves to Bill Gates; who was able to harness these forces.

Look at how sports champions become champions. The same fundamental law is working here too. The sport is a force that loves back and rewards the sportsman for her pure love, perpetration and sacrifice to the sport.

The biggest pioneers have fallen in love with specific aspects of the force of Mother Nature. They have devoted all their energy and time to studying, mastering and researching some new path to understand, uncover and harness some specific force/knowledge of Mother Nature. There comes a stage where the devotion, love, time all pays off and knowledge/Mother-Nature just like a lover showers the researcher by revealing the secret principles that govern this particular force. Knowledge/Mother-Nature falls head over heals in love with the devoted student and makes him/her the master of her own mystery and provides him with the perks of pioneering success.

Mother Nature is particularly generous to those who expand her understanding and devote their time to knowing her better and those who master her knowledge in particular fields; she lets them become masters of their chosen knowledge.

The Sufi believe that God created the world as He was a Hidden Treasure and He wanted to be known and loved. It is very clear that Mother Nature has this same innate desire to be known and showered with pure love. Mother Nature wants all her secret forces to be known but she reveals them only to her pure lovers.

All those who want to become pioneers must follow this fundamental law of Mother Nature.

Give Mother Nature's particular secret force/knowledge all your time and attention and she will reveal her secret in due time. Never give up and keep at it, ultimately she will fall in love with you and give you her secret bounty of knowledge and her force will be with you. The love you shower on her secret force will be returned many fold once you win her over.

Even if we put aside the clues from the Bible, Malcolm Gladwell is saying the same thing when he says that in order to become a pioneer one must devote 10,000 hours to his chosen specific knowledge/force of Mother Nature.

All great pioneers became pioneers by researching tiny specific secrets of Mother Nature. They shower their love on specific fields of knowledge. So in order to become a pioneer one must give his life to his specific quest. Each and every student must strive to become a specialist by taking the same route as the pioneers.

It seems like different forces of Mother Nature are like her children where she wants to marry off each child to a different person. So when a student courts many of Mother Nature's children she doesn't much care and gives the student little in return. There are lessons here for education policies. Each and every student must be encouraged and provided with the opportunity to become a specialist. Too many resources are wasted on making every student a jack of all trades.

Our leaders have determined that everyone should have at least an undergraduate degree. So we push students during their prime years of study to become Jacks of all trades. While the Germans make their students into experts in particular professions.

We provide generalized knowledge in many fields while the Germans train most into becoming specialists in particular fields. Our students end up having knowledge while their students become knowledge; capable of generating wealth. Mostly wealth is created through 'becoming' the expert in a particular field. Professionals are the ones who create wealth for themselves and for the government; while most of the nonprofessionals miss the bus and are at least partly dependent on the welfare system. Instead of being an asset they drain the government coffers.

It is a much bigger crisis than we realize. Our leaders have determined that everyone should have at least an undergraduate degree. So we push students during their prime years of study to become Jacks of all trades. While the Germans use this prime time to make their students into experts in particular professions. No wonder the Germans are far richer than us Americans.

One prospers by being an expert in some particular field. What is a nonprofessional undergraduate degree good for? Not much as every single job in society needs expertise. Most under graduates end up with low level jobs. Why do we need to under graduate our students with unpayable debt and diminish our government finances?

If you are a student and reading this then remember you must look out for yourself. Even if the government wants to make you a jack of all trades you must choose the path of a pioneer and figure out a specialist field and devote at least an hour every day to study, review, chew and digest all the relative knowledge in your chosen field. Study, study and study at least to the level of research any one specific force/knowledge of Mother Nature.

Here are some further clues. Fall in love with your specific field. Learn and master all that is already known about your project and then research, review, chew and digest and then research again. Give it more and more time. You have to follow this fundamental law and success will come, it always does. Remember to follow Malcolm Gladwell's 10,000 hours of devoting time to your first and last love of your chosen specific field of knowledge.

Parents must put their children on a similar path to becoming pioneers from an early age.

Pure lovers of a specific mystery of Mother Nature 'become' pioneers. Those who devote their time to becoming experts in specific fields of knowledge end up 'becoming' professionals. Jack of all trades end up 'having' half baked knowledge and becoming 'nothing' special.

Remember in the Bible God is saying that He is Wisdom. He does not 'have' wisdom. As man is made in the image of God man too is supposed to be wisdom. It is all about 'becoming' knowledge and not about 'having' knowledge. So it is about 'becoming' pioneers and 'becoming' professionals and it is not about 'having' half baked knowledge.

It is evident that our education leaders must wake up this fundamental law of Mother Nature where she favors rewarding those who fall in love with just one of her many children. Those who pay half hearted attention to any of her children she dislikes. She is like a mother who does not like anyone who tries to marry many of her children all at once.

So to get the blessings of Mother Nature we must craft education policies that follow her fundamental law...
