Mythakon Se Vigyan Tak / मिथकों से विज्ञान तक: Brahmand Ke Vikas Ki Badalti Kahani / ब्रह्मांड के विकास की बदलती कहानी
Humanity's relentless curiosity has driven us to ask questions since time immemorial. Once that impulse took hold, there was no stopping it. Every branch of human knowledge, from mythology and storytelling to religion, philosophy, and science, springs from this fundamental hunger for answers. Two questions towered above all others: how did the universe come into being, and how did life and humanity originate? History reveals something striking: there's a crucial distinction between asking 'how' and asking 'why'. Questions beginning with 'how' point us towards scientific inquiry, whilst those rooted in 'why' guide us towards spirituality and faith. This volume traces how our understanding of cosmic and biological evolution has transformed, using these shifts to define what science actually is. By turning the pages of history, the author demonstrates that we cannot truly define science without acknowledging spirituality and religious wisdom, nor can we draw a clean line separating them. Perhaps the most fundamental difference lies in how each framework treats established truths: science celebrates the overthrow of yesterday's certainties, whilst religious traditions face genuine tension when their eternal truths are questioned.
