Barring a few articles that are more focused on the current problems of national and sometimes international importance, we all here are belaboring to define New Civilization. What does New Civilization constitute? How would it be like? Perhaps, there is unanimity among all of us here on one aspect, that is, it would not be like our current civilization. But, here also, from this point on there is no further unanimity. Some of us are not satisfied with – or do not approve – the cultural aspect of our current civilization, while some others may not approve the economic aspect of the same and so on. There may be different reasons or factors for this disapproval. They may range from purely personal point of view to one’s responsible social concerns. This is rejection, partially or completely, of our current civilization. But this is not more than this. This is not enough on our part. This whole exercise is negative.
How can we define New Civilization? What is its quintessential? What are its telltale signs?
Perhaps, there is unanimity in this regard on one point that New Civilization would be founded on knowledge – the knowledge of truth that exists there in Nature. The New Civilization, per force, would be established on the strength of its logic. What are the characteristics of this knowledge? Firstly, this knowledge must be universally known and accepted as such by the humanity. In other words, it must become the part and parcel of the collective consciousness of humanity. Secondly, it must be scientific in nature. It must be established by science, even if only in the negative manner and approved by it. And, thirdly, this universal knowledge must be so overwhelming in nature and scope that it should overflow the parametric rigors of scientific investigation. In other words, science should concede the existence, as hard fact, of the reality of the new claimant to truth.

We must all know and agree to the truth of who and what we are: human beings of the planet Earth.

Yes,b. And, therefore, we human beings owe certain responsibilities towards our Earth and or future generations, in our own interests. As responsible inheritors we can not afford to be unrestrained in our conduct on many fronts. Is it not so, b. ?
