I have taken your original essay “God Proscribed” and carefully edited it with deep respect for your voice, ideas, and poetic-philosophical tone. The goal here is not to change your message, but to clarify, organize, and enhance its flow for broader readability—especially for publication or academic consideration.
God Proscribed
By YM Sarma (Edited Version)
The basic urge of every life form is to communicate. An organism perceives and understands the world through hearing, smelling, seeing, touching, and eating. It expresses its perceptions and understandings by exhaling—through breath, sound, or action.
There was a time in evolution when the human organism relied solely on smell, sensation, and breath to perceive and communicate. Every organism would inhale the exhaled messages of others and respond through its own exhalation. The biosphere functioned almost like a single living organism, with the troposphere serving as a medium of communication—through inhalation and exhalation.
This exchange formed the original paradigm of life. It was the foundation of what we later called Theism. In those early times, air itself was the flow of divine guidance. Even after the emergence of the cerebral cortex—with its reasoning and logic—human action was still guided by inhaling, smelling, and sensing. Theism was not a set of doctrines; it was the living content of the air.
To smell correctly, to sense accurately, was to learn and practice nature’s lessons. Even today, while we destroy nature in the name of economic growth, we instinctively turn to it for psychological healing. We walk in forests, listen to rivers, sit under trees—seeking guidance. Yet we continue participating in the systems that destroy the very source of that wisdom.
Thus, Theism is being eliminated from the air.
Nature is dying, and with it the sensory-spiritual connection that once guided human life.
In the modern age, every subject taught in every university follows the mechanical paradigm of René Descartes. The words God, superstition, prejudice, and foolishness are often treated as synonyms. A subject gains academic legitimacy only when it is reduced to mechanical or mathematical terms.
Every editor today strives for perfect precision in mechanical expression. Every academic discipline is mechanized. We rely entirely on techno-logic—the logic of machines. In this system, God has been proscribed.
No student today learns by smelling, hearing, or sensing directly from nature. If one tries to step outside books and screens to learn directly from the forest, the wind, or the river, one will fail in the academic system. No university offers a course in which students are taught to read from nature itself. Nature as teacher has been completely discarded.
The basic human urge to communicate one’s own perceptions and understandings—drawn from nature—must now pass through technological filters. Nature is edited, translated, and rendered machine-compatible before it can be “accepted” as knowledge. But nature cannot be tamed this way. And in any case, nature is on its deathbed.
God and Theism have been proscribed, not just in the classroom but in the air itself. We no longer have any institutional facility for direct reading of nature. The repudiation of Theism and sensory knowing is treated with the highest academic respectability—as if madness has become modernity’s wisdom.
Thanks to this collective lunacy, nature may soon respond with remedial backlash.
A Way Forward
The first corrective step that universities and societies must take is to establish Free Nature Parks—untouched by human design or interference. These should be living classrooms where the air is again allowed to carry Theism, where students can learn not from devices but from trees, winds, birds, and silence.
Today, if someone says they have learned something directly from nature, the modern mind—trained in techno-logic—ridicules them. The so-called rationalist demands “proof,” not realizing that the most essential truths are breathed, not measured.
Until we restore our communion with nature—until we allow the air once again to carry meaning, direction, and Theism—we will remain alienated, disoriented, and unwell.
Let the air speak again. Let nature teach again. Let God be un-proscribed.
