1 DIALECTICAL MATERIALISM Dialectical materialism is a philosophical word of materialism. It is called dialectical materialism because its approach to phenomena of nature and its method of studying and apprehending is dialectical. While its interpretation of the phenomena of nature and natural activities of all the objects are called materialism. At first God Buddha uses this word as PRATUTSAMUTPAD means all the objects and nature are universally changing and Vedas philosophy fully explained the activities of materialism in first song of ATHARBAVEDA as ohm jho trishapta adhardhaturme and shanti hymns of JAJJURVEDA as ohm purnamada purnamebabashiswate

2 My dialectic method says Marx, is not only different from the Hegelian, but is its direct opposite. To Hegel. The process of thinking, which under the name of the Idea he even transforms into an independent subject, is the demigods (creator) of the real world, and the real world is only the external phenomenal from of the Idea. With me, on the contrary, the idea is nothing else that the material world reflected by the human mind, and translated into forms of thought (Karl Marx, Capital, Vol.1.p xxx, George Allen &Unwin Ltd. 1938) N.B. I have partly explained of human life, mind, universalism and super naturalism in my book INTEGRAL HUMANISM please you follow my philosophy; no fire of sorrow can burn you. When describing their materialism, Marx and Engels usually refer to Feuerbach as the philosopher who restored materialism to its right. This however does not mean that the materialism of Marx and Engels is identical with Feuerbach s materialism. As a matter of fact, Marx and Engels took from Feuerbach s materialism its inner kernel developed it into a scientific philosophical theory of materialism and cast aside its idealistic and religiousethical encumbrances. We know that Feuerbach although he was fundamentally a materialist, objected to the name materialism. Engels more than once declared that in spite of the materialist foundation. Feuerbach remained.bound by the traditional idealist, and that real idealism of Feuerbach become evident as soon as we come to his philosophy of religion and ethics ( Karl Marx, Selected works, Eng. Ed. Moscow 1946 Vole 1, pp ) REAL PHILOSOPHICAL FEELING OF DIALECTICAL MATERIALISM All the objects in this world, from atoms to stars are changeable and active and alive. We should follow the natural activities of the atomic world and also of the stars and planets and natural activities of surroundings. Each and every object has their own activities and realism, which means that the changes of every object are realism of universal activities. It is the truth that there will be definitely some impact of the changes or transformation of the nature of all the objects. The religion and nature and universal changing activities of all the objects in this world are called the philosophy of dialectical materialism. Dialectical of Materialism is logically kind of a spiritual philosophy. Dialectical of Materialism means natural fraction of metals and natural virtue of metals or natural religion of metals. All materials are naturally actionable and changeable from atom to unlimited star world also. This work is been erected by the Earth natural power and Super natural power or common natural Goddess power and common Super God power. Earth natural power and Super Natural power are constitution of Humankind or Real Religion of Mankind. So Dialectical of Materialism is kind of a philosophy of materialism as human religion.

3 But the conflict and changes of the materials in this world generally takes place upon the natural situation of qualities and religion and geographical situation. For example, if a wooden table is kept within a room, then it will take a lot of time to get destroyed, but if it is exposed to sun and rain, then it will be destroyed within few days. So, in order to describe the changes of nature of any objects, then it is necessary to explain the changes of the different objects and it is further necessary to discuss the natural realism, character, qualities and behaviour of the objects. There is a commercial change in the religion of the objects depending on the natural situation. On the other hand, there occurs a change in the compound structure of the materials depending on the quantity and location of the objects. The compound objects of the atoms and other materials in our body are expressed based on the natural situation of our living But there does not usually any massive changes in the atomic world though the atomic world stays within an active situation. Our solar system can be a great instance to it. But the atomic activities will bring about changes in those atoms minutely. So the atomic activities are also changeable in nature. All the objects and the natures present in this solar system are superior, i.e. they are performing in a rhythm and are changeable and sensible, meant Super Natural sensation alive and active in everywhere. Human beings, society, nation, trees, climbers, social rules and regulations, administrative rule, thoughts of human being, power of thinking, all are working continuously and are changeable. Each activity has definite behaviours and is also proportionally capable to change. For instance, a wooden table may change its nature and shape faster if kept under the sun or in water than being kept inside a room. All the objects of this world are changeable and their fundamental souls and compound forms are also active. All the living beings are actively working; similarly, the fundamental atoms-molecules of the compound inanimate objects are also active, like its presence in the solar system. All the doing activities has a single consequence, so, the changes will occur based on the nature and activities of the solar system. But we can feel and observe the external changes. But nature and Super Naturalism cannot easily be seen and be felt by us, because that change gets expressed after lakhs of years. We admit due to the discovery of science that the land structure and the environment changes. So it means transformation. So it becomes convenient to assume the speed of the activities performed by us externally and we are able to hold the natural and supernatural power universally meant knowledge of Universalism, Super Naturalism and Integral Humanism. The super natural power or the god, or the Allah or the superior power all are directs the Supreme power or Super Natural sensation or Supreme Womb.

4 The five supernatural powers can be felt beautifully by standing at the midnight on the roof of the house or in an open field or by sitting on a sea beach. The uncountable stars of the night sky are bonded together like the nerves of a human body. No one can come out of its own orbit easily. The sound of air, movement of water, the holding capacity of this earth, the soberness of the blue sky, the behaviour of the sun during daytime, the active [planet, the heat of the sun in the noon, all are the activities operated by the solar system. The sun is fixed with its nine planets and their satellites rotating in a disciplined manner, there is no distraction or crisis in it. They are continuously revolving according to the universal rule. How beautiful it is! On the flip side, the earth is performing her own duties in her own way. If it is somehow disturbed, there will be a complete destruction. But it is not occurring. We can see myriad types of complex materials on this earth and their deeds, changes and religion are expressed in different ways. There are fundamental materials within these compound ones. If these compound materials are kept separated then it can be noticed that the qualities, activities and religion are distinctly mentioned. There is a presence of molecules within the fundamental materials. It includes electron, proton, neutron etc. Those electrons, protons and neutrons are continuously rotating within this solar system also and also bonded within a definite rule. There is power of light and also the worldliness around every atom. The nerves and the heart of a human body are also carrying out their works in their own way. The cells of our body are even working according to their own ways. The mitochondria within the cells are even contracting and distracting without any break. There is also a huge world full of lives as well as souls. This is nothing but a beautiful expression of the above mentioned natural power. This is the supernatural power. Is it the omnipotent god? If it is god then many questions regarding His appearance may rise in our mind. There is no specific appearance or idol from the external view. But there is a different expression and feeling. We are constantly living within this powerful universe. How awesome the activities of this beautiful nature are! It is absolutely restless. There is an expression of the supernatural power within all these objects. There is also an existence of that supernatural power or Super Natural Sensation within our own body. The earth, water, air, energy and the sky are restlessly performing their activities and are getting bonded with the nature. There are neither breaks nor any conflicts. If there occurred any conflict between the natural objects, then it must be noticed that it is being done only for the maintenance of balance in nature and also to protect the lives of living beings on this earth. This creativity is endlessly performing its own task by

5 keeping the sun in the centre. Again, the sun is performing its duty according to the rule of the world. The sun and the innumerable stars in this universe are maintaining their own positions and carrying their works. The super natural power is equally protecting each other continuously. Thus supernaturalism is nothing but the description of the activities of the natural objects around us by feeling the religion, speed and its policies or behaviour or nature. This unending task is taking place continuously similar to the movement of the stars, planets and the fixed position of the sun. Our description will be concise enough if we can discuss the nature of the creative world by classifying it into five natural parts i.e. the earth, the water or liquid, the air or its feeling, the power of the heat or fire, and the sky or the empty space. These five natural objects are the five qualities which are expressed for instance, the quality of an object is expressed with its odour, the water can be expressed in the form of valour, air can be expressed through breathing activities, fire is expressed through its feeling or beauty, and the empty space is expressed through the allocation of the sun rays. Again, these five qualities make the five sense organs to be alive. For instance, we can smell something with the help of our nose, beauty is expressed with our eyes, air is felt with the help of skin, and sound is also expressed with the help of the open sky. The qualitative activities of the tasks done by our various body parts are the expressions of our mind and brain which is from infinity to boundless. On the other hand, the qualities and religion of the natural creativity of this world is beyond any level of eternity. It is not only an instance but it is also the nature and quality of the great supernaturalism. The activities of an ordinary material are simple and the dialectical activities are also ordinary but the deed performed by the five human sense organs and their conflict with each other is creative, changeable and also infinite. If an individual doesn t consume sugar and wants to taste it then it is impossible to explain him of sugar test satisfaction. Therefore, the qualities, religion, activities, conflict and changes are not only felt also truly knowledgeable. Though it is possible to explain the concept of Dialectical Materialism of the general word by writing a book with a large number of pages, but it is not possible to describe the human life, human creativity, human sensation and Supernaturalism even if we convert sea water into ink. Then the explanation will be uncompleted. To know more, please download my books and follow my philosophy. No fire of sorrow can burn you.
