This is a summary of a book by Prem Kamble which looks at God and
religion in a completely new light as has never been done before.
The topic of Religion is very relevant to this time when religious
fanaticism has shaken the world. The book addresses the
fundamental causes which have led to the great religious divide.
This book may challenge some of your fundamental beliefs, so it is
the author’s humble request to read with an open mind.
The book explores the harmony between the physical and the mental
forces. It tries to delve into the spiritual world and its comparison
with the physical world throws open new avenues for thinking and
gives a new direction to our search. It discusses the meaning of Fate,
Chance and God and tries to trace the origin of religion. It laments
the distortion of religion and division of mankind based on religion. .
The author makes an attempt to give a scientific explanation to the
working of mental or the spiritual realm. He envisages that in future
there would be a method to quickly give man the state of mind he
desires.
Prem Kamble believes that the method of God and religion is a
“bullock cart” method devised ages ago to give that elevated state of
mind and for spiritual upliftment. He explains how the concept of
God and religion, which was ‘devised’ as a ‘method’ for the welfare
of human beings, has become a cause for misery and suffering. The
author has found a basic flaw in the ‘method’ of God and Religion
2
3. which has prevented it from achieving its noble objective. The
method has not evolved because of the same flaw.
He believes that there WILL be a new jet age method. Just as
Mathematics explained the laws of Physical world, a new science
called “Mentomatics” will explain the laws of Spiritual world.
Mentomatics will usher in the next revolution – the Spiritual
revolution, and give us a jet age method to attain “God in two
minutes”
For this, according to Prem Kamble, we need to first devise methods
of measuring and representing quantitatively the feelings of love,
confidence, hatred sadness and our other human emotions.
This unique book makes the reader sit up and think as he has never
thought before and serves as an eye opener. Illustrative and easily
comprehensible, the language used is simple and can be easily
grasped by common man. Though the book uses the basics of
physical science, what you read is not science, nor Religion nor heavy
philosophy. It is plain and simple common sense.
The thoughts expressed here can find favour with both the Indian
and Western reading publics. It is the fusion of cultures that
broadens horizons and perspectives.
Extracts (Summary available at
http://pukamble.tripod.com/gandrframe.htm) :
"I can foresee a world united again, a world where man will not be
divided by religion. Religion will be 'scientifically' explained and we
will see that there is only one 'God' who is within each one of us.
Gods are nothing but different forms of imagination of a power
within us. Man will see his folly."
….
A time will come when man will look back and say "Once upon a
time, there lived barbarians on this earth who believed in several
Gods, and they killed their fellow beings in the name of religion."
