Book Description
About The Book

There is no scientific evidence of the existence of freewill in thoughts. The objects which existed in the past moments continue to exist only in the mind in their past and not outside the mind. There is no evidence of knower of object ever separating from the object or idea known in the mind. In the sciences, objects in their past states are illusorily outside the mind independent of the knower. The predispositions are patterns of past desires of the ego that create imageries and ideas in the mind. The latent tendencies are innate bodily actions towards goals desired by persons in their past life. They are carried by life into the present birth of every human spirit which identifies with idea of a body as the person.

About the Author

N. Sivasubramanian (b.1936) has been a student of physics, engineering, law and philosophy and pondered for almost 47 years over the revelations of many spiritually realized sages about the spiritual origin of person. The absence of a belief in the spiritual origin of the person in the life sciences, and also in the social sciences, was puzzling and it forced the author to delve into scientific findings in neuroscience. The study did not show how bio sciences can progress without acknowledging the spiritual origin of person, the living being. The effort then was to try and explain experimental facts especially in neuroscience and also in physics without closing one's eyes to the reality of the spiritual origin of the scientist. He or she creates in mind the scientific theories and outlooks. The result was the writings called 'Science of Person'. It is published in the hope it may interest a few others who have also enquired on similar lines in their minds or may like to do so after reading the publication.

Introduction

Adam Smith said, "It is not from the benevolence of the butcher, the brewer or the baker, that we expect our dinner, but from their regard to their own self interest. We address ourselves, not to their humanity but to their self-love, and never talk to them of our own necessities but of their advantages"

Readers have been intrigued by the outlook of Adam Smith on the nature of persons who work in society to keep it going What are this self-interest and self-love to which Adam Smith refers? What make persons work and do they have benefit of society as their goal, or does the work just go on as a habit? Production of goods and services and their distribution in society is an economic view of what work goes on, but they are not under control of economists. Every interested party claims that their policies cause the work to happen. Claim in neuroscience and genetics is that brain, neurons, genes and neuro chemicals in bodies are the causes of body's actions. But the scientists do not say how the genes and neurons carry the purpose and intentions of the action. The economists view person as a rational agent acting by freewill, yet they seek to replace the freewill by impersonal causes in as many contexts as possible. It will make economics more scientific in its predictions on the future of economy. But they need to look at actions happening unconsciously by latent tendencies of persons.
