But what actually is life? Any idea? Does it have a tangible form....like any state of matter?? Or is it something to be believed like Air....we knw its there but cant see or catch it (but atleast air can be traced out scientifically). Afterall, is it the much proclaimed "internal fire" or "energy"?? If so from where does this energy originate...and if it really is energy, then does the Law of Conservation of Energy be free from criticism?? Every one seems to rely on the universe and the infinite space regarding matters of mystery and enigma. Afterall, where does this life of a particular person end up? Or is it unending?? If science can trace out implulses and stimulus and nerve transmissions and read it through specific instruments, then cant this life be read in its full identity....and cant this migration be explained?? Like in Frankenstein story...then cant this life be trapped and impregnated under suitable ambient conditions to create a living from a dead?? If its some form of energy, then why isnt it coming under the scanner of the numerous energy detecting/measuring devices that this mankind has developed?? A common doubt tht may arise in any curious and questioning mind abt the various life-originating theories is....if life originated from various matter, gaseous particles by some big bang or so, then cant such a situation be recreated?? Or is there something like Life?? How life originated, where it originated, its primitive forms, the reasons and ambience that nurtured it, the theology/philosophy/science etc behind it…..could be well debated upon as long as man exists in this universe.

It would seem to me that STRING THEORY illuminates the possible understandings of life and it's abundance. Within the framwork of multiple dimensions, and infinite membranes of energy, that form the super string structure of particle physics - life may only need to originate once. The the undulating membranes and harmonics of the vibration of an infinte number of strings - resonate throughout space and time. The order out of chaos, the reptetitive biogenesis of life, the unending spectacle of life and death appear to mirror far deeper realities than our current simple notions of biology, philosopy or religion can adequatly interpret. A good discussion. Thanks. I am working on formulating some augmentation to this line of reasoning as it relates to new concepts and math of modern physics.
