Query: End of World Predictions 2012... Do we really expect end of the world in 2012!

Kaivalya Jnani:
As many human beings... as many chains of thoughts can there be! As many human beings... as many paths to God can there be! Based on the parameters available... most human beings deduce their answers. One perceives the glass as half full... the other half empty! Both are right... it is only the analogy of perception that makes it appear distinct!

The doctrine of Anekantavada in Jainism proves this point. The theory of non-one-sidedness makes it possible that the same person is called Father by some, uncle by other, son by some, and brother by other. The human being under question is one... but addressed in different ways! In practical life also... every doctrine can have many facets!

For a spiritualist... the impending doom in 2012 would result as sins outweigh virtues. For Dharma (righteousness) to prevail... the end of adharma (lawlessness) is a must. Contrary to above for an environmentalist the impending disaster is the result of disturbance in the ecology of the planet as a whole. Mankind has long played with nature... time has come for all to suffer!

In terms of a physicist... life always comes full circle. The fast developments in the world of science also have its perils. The right technology in wrong hands can cause irreparable disaster. Probably science has outlived its life. Albert Einstein rightly predicted that the fourth world war would be fought with sticks and stones. Whatever developments of science we perceive today... all shall perish into darkness in the aftermath of world war 3.
