And now lest you say you were not told. You are today a race flushed and blinded by the greed of wealth. And you, this present generation, no doubt have a chance to pass away enjoying the fruits of atomic energy and leaving the grievous debt to future generations, unless you are caught in atomic war. Yet mind that you stand on the very brink of the atomic pit. And there are but two alternatives to you. Either you will perish through the atomic bombs, or you will perish under the atomic radiations in a slow, decaying manner, to die a painful, lingering death. Yet know that this will come in right justice and none of the heavens will cry over your ruin. If this, however, were the matter of perishing in this world only, it was not much. The painful fact is that they, who will go down in the atomic pit of this world deservedly, will find in the next eternal world the eternal atomic hell ablaze to welcome them.
Remember that this modern, science-guided, machine-ridden, continues, systematic, ever-increasing progress has to expand endlessly. It is based on the Baconian philosophy of man’s dominion over nature for material benefit as the real business of man, and demands full, continuous engrossment in the pursuit of wealth. It will keep on increasing and expanding till the resources of earth are consumed and this mankind entangled in the economic-industrial set up will be obliged to swallow even any poisonous energy, just as it is obliged at present to swallow the poisonous atomic energy, with dire consequences yet unmindful due to the acute necessity.
Let this flushed, misguided, mistaken and blinded mankind at present knows that is not energy. It is merely poisoned. The atomic bomb is not the weapon of defence. It is a means of complete annihilation of life on earth. And yet the entire mankind may be seen carrying on their heads the loss of fuel for the atomic Pyre, which is their own. The plain truth, that there is no protection against radiation possible for those Millions residing in the neighborhood of reactors which have every likelihood of leaking and at that times exploding to inundate the neighboring districts with deadly radiation and ruinous consequences to those involved will not be understood by men. What else then is the blindness if this is not? No sure cure for radiation sickness has not been discovered, nor any in sight. The adoption of atomic energy before gaining full control of it radiation is clearly an act most unscientific. Yet the experiment of atomic energy is being conducted on the principle of research cum utility involving the entire list of species in it and employing them as the guinea pigs. Yet the entire world is blind to this fact despite their knowledge of the insidious nature of such an experiment and the dreadful consequence thereof. Only if the question of death or sickness was there, it could have been said, well rid, but grievous is even the thought of the Radio-genetic effects. The mutated genes move secretly from generation to generation till at last they manifest their existence in the form of abnormal births. This abnormality being inheritable multiplies through marriage till considerable proportions of populations may be changed into the herds of cancer-ridden, miserable chimeras to perish after a spell of miserable existence on earth. The same could be said of animals and plants. Indeed this world has given blind to all this for the influence of the doom is grievous. The vengeance of Nemesis is indeed terrible. The scientist will tell you that neither there is any means of detecting the mutated genes, or destroying them, nor there could be done anything after the mutated genes have commenced to manifest themselves in abnormal births. And everyone in the world will with pride tell you that to atomic energy was a type of Energy. That the atomic bomb was a good means of deterrence.
It may sound false to you, or it may appear as a paradox, yet it neither is false, nor ever it is a paradox, but it is a hard and fast reality, that this present generation of mankind is most ignorant, since it is most ignorant of the subject that of nuclear science on which the entire life and the whole future of this world is staked. It might, however, come as surprise to many, rather a discovery, that leaving aside the ignorant masses of the world as ignorant; even the non-scientist intelligentia of the world is ignorant of even of the alphabet of the subject of nuclear science. Not even this, but rather, the scientist community itself has to be divided into numerous categories regarding this matter. Few scientists are there, indeed very few who know all that knowledge of the subject of nuclear science which to this day is available. The knowledge, however, which is available on the subject is enough to establish the fact that the experiment of atomic energy ought to be conducted in the laboratory, and the recommendation of the adoption of the atomic energy made only after full Control of the subject has been gained and Full protection to the masses is provided against the radiations of the exploding reactors etc. and that the experiment of atomic energy on the principle of research cum utility must never be conducted. But the pity is that this world is in haste and is hastily adopting the atomic energy for peace, and thinking that by labeling this energy with peace its injurious nature will by itself be transformed.
This world today is in complete anarchy, politically, economically, socially, philosophically. But the atomic anarchy is among these the most hazardous. There are nations on this very earth that have mountainous stockpiles of atomic weapons, and yet they would try to check other nations from doing the same fearing the dangers of proliferation. Just think yourself the attitude of the peoples of this age. The thing simply could not be explained it rather causes exasperation in the nations so checked and further stimulates them to the action of having atomic weapons as their right of defence and remember, that all these no-atomic-war-treaties, and all these attempts on the curtailments of armaments are of no avail. Nor will the stockpiles forever remain deterrent. The actual method of averting the atomic danger from this mankind is to remove the causes of the appearance of the atomic energy and the atomic bombs. These causes are the slander, the wealth accumulation, and the solicitude in the durability of the material works of the world to a degree as if one had to live in this world forever. Yet if you are so blinded by the influence of these causes, and overwhelming is the influence of the grievous doom, then know that if you perish in the atomic hell, the hell which you have with your own hands prepared. It will be in right justice .The causes above stated is no minor guilt. Nor is more production the remedy of the ills of the atomic age. It is I the miserable that have found it as my duty to cry, to yell, to shout, to wail, as long as I live and perhaps after that. This duty of mine may come as wonder to you. Wonder it is to me also. Only augmented with pain and misery.
