Einstein'dan cok begendigim bir alinti

[Kenan Atak]

"A human being is a part of the whole, called by us, "Universe," a part
limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and
feelings as something separated from the rest -- a kind of optical delusion
of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting
us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to
us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our
circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of
nature in its beauty. Nobody is able to achieve this completely, but the
striving for such achievement is in itself a part of the liberation and a
foundation for inner security."

Bunu anlayacak kac kisi vardir bilmiyorum, insanlarin tamama yakini zihinsel hapis yasiyor, hayati ailesi ve yasadigi cevreden ibaret gorup koyun gibi gelenek gorenek ve dogmalarla yasiyorlar. Bu alintiyi pek cok kisiye gonderiyorum. Belki bu alinti biraz dusundurur insanlari. Einsten sadece bilime yaptigi katkilarla saygiyi hakketmiyor, gercek bilim adamlari gibi felsefeyle cok hasir nesir olmus. Bir kac satirda bu kadar net anlatilirdi insanlarin yasadigi ve dogduktan olume kadar beraberinde tasidiklari yanilgili hayat.
