AS WE KNOW THAT FRICTION IS FRIEND AND FOE FOR US -

HERE IS STORY

A father chops off his son’s head for not letting him into the bathroom. The mother fights with the father, forcing him to bring the kid back to life. He did it. How? By pasting the head of an animal!

I am 31 now and don’t share my grandmother’s conviction from that night. In fact, I know for a fact that even she didn’t believe the story to be true. She had later confessed to me, much against peer pressure.

And this year, I heard a chief minister of an Indian state say that Dhritarashtra, the blind father of the Kauravas in Mahabharata, used the internet to get updates about the Kurukshetra (war)!

So, did Dhritarashtra have access to satellite technology too? I don’t know yet and it’s not because most scientists in Isro are avoiding the topic (they avoid me for a completely different reason) or any such thing!

Also, I’ve heard other men say some other things too that saw several questions arrive in my head: Is a Peacock’s tear a reproductive cell? Did Ravana—the demon from Lanka in Ramayana—beat the Wright Brothers in making an inanimate thing fly?

Even as I grappled with such questions (I am a students of the Arts after all), a host of other people, whose names have either been famous or infamous have made commentaries claiming to disprove Albert Einstein or Isaac Newton.

On the face of it, for anybody who believes in science, their monologues are just funny. But the influence they have over a sea of followers means that nothing they say can be taken lightly.

For example, a self-styled godman denounced theories of Einstein earlier this year and spoke of how brains of people who eat non-vegetarian food cannot comprehend such complex things. Einstein was a meat eater, and this man has had several criminal cases against him.

But here’s what happened on the internet: The godman’s video went viral, and many people actually believed him, going by their comments. And, this isn’t even the same “internet Dhritarashtra used”!

There is a danger in this. The last few years have been marked by a strong friction for many things scientific, we’ve even had the Indian Science Congress become incongruous. People from different walks of life have resisted science, some for short term gains, some for propaganda and some merely because of ignorance. Institutes like the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) has had to cancel events that were not scientific.

The problem is not just in India. We’ve had the most powerful man in the free world say climate change does not exist.

The onus of spreading science, the only hope for millions of people around the world, therefore, lies on the scientific community. But sadly, the community, at least in India, still works in silos and speaks foreign language only their lab mates understand. The media too has a role.

And if things are not done collectively, our future generation may end up believing that peacocks reproduce using their tears or that, may be Ravana, who had ten heads, and thus ten brains, had figured out how to make things fly even if it was only to abduct his rival’s wife.

Because not all grandmothers will have the courage to confess that they were just selling stories even they couldn’t believe!
