What is SCIENTIFIC ATTITUDE???
Our problems are nothing but our superstitious mind. Mind had been so much influenced since ages with age old traditional believe system. Religious persons are so much scared, fear they have that, if this is not done god may not be happy and so on. They don't understand, god never wants such attitudes. In stead of, devotion, faith, trust and BHAKTI is important. Such people always forget that their fear may cause damages to many innocent minds. Why fear God, God is love.


Religious minded people are suffering from spiritual poverty. Some hold religion so strongly that their rigidity of religious felling, some time looks like, as if individual is suffering from a disease of mental ailment. Rigidity of religion divides people, community and nation. Where as spirituality unites minds, people of any religion, cast community and nations. This demands a greater understanding of religion and spirituality. No way could be developed as to how could, change of attitude be possible. At lest for peace with in disturbed self, communities and nations for, with ultimate aim of world peace understanding of facts and truth is important.


Preconceived opinions or ideas with out any authentic logic, people are born and growing with such ancient’s thoughts. An irrational fear of unknown, mysterious, religious practices is creating all the problems with in ones mind. Superstitions are nothing but an unscientific ideas, thoughts which is unadulterated believes one grow with and practice during one's life time. These go on with generations with out knowing the reasons behind.


Solutions are there, we are improving very slowly. We need scientific temper, scientific attitudes along with knowledge. At least knowledge would help a person to find out reasons behind such thoughts. In spite of so much awareness of Education, still there are so many people who lack proper knowledge and logic of science. Is it not surprising that one has to give his life for, because he was fighting scientifically against superstition and religious believe systems. It is very sad that DR.NARENDRA DABHOLKAR has to die, an unfortunate death.


Nation very much is in need of such people. Do we ever have RAJA RAMMOHON ROY, ISHARCHANDRA VIDHYASAGAR who fought against the religious traditional superstitious bad practices? They fought against CHILD MARRIAGE, SATHIDHA PRATHA, burning of married girls along with their dead husbands. Education for all genders, the girl child, and most important one is WIDOW MARRIAGE. Iswarchandra Vidyasgar married his son with a widow. Could we ever have such people who have love for their religion with scientific temper and attitude in their
 
mind? Education in science needs more boost up along with other studies. Even one should have to know the science and its logic behind.


Through scientific education, science has to penetrate societies and communities to get rid from age old traditional superstitions from the religious God fearing people.  All have to understand that spirituality brings unity of minds where as religion or religious rigidity divides minds, minds of people.


SAMI VIVEKHANANDA felt that, "He repeatedly told us to throw away all preconceived ideas and reason for ourselves before believing in any thing. He talked about experimental verification, in Astronomy or chemistry for example, as illustrations for methods to follow before drawing our conclusions even in spiritual matters. He also argued tirelessly that messages from Vedanta were not in conflict with the tents of modern science. But he insisted that we should not believe in his arguments blindly, as like VEDVAKYA."
