\nThe First Science, the Scientia Prima<\/p>\n

All sciences study
\nBeing.<\/p>\n

Physics is the Science of Being as Matter.
Mathematics is the
\nScience of Being as Numbers.
Chemistry is the Science of Being as
\nQualities
Biology is the Science of Being as Life.<\/p>\n

But the Scientia
\nPrima, the First Science, Vedanta Sastra, is the Science of Being as Being, in
\nits pure state. And in its pure state, it is as Absolute Being !<\/p>\n

And what
\nis the Absolute ? It is one immutably homogenous Infinite.<\/p>\n

The Universe
\nhas no center or circumference. It would have had a circumference, if it had a
\ncenter. Since the Universe has no center or circumference, and since it could
\nnot be enclosed in any center or circumference, it would be unintelligible,
\nwithout Being, without the Absolute, as the Center and the
\nCircumference.<\/p>\n

The Philosophia Prima, the First Philosophy, was the name
\ngiven by Locke to Ontology and later by Hobbes to Metaphysics !<\/p>\n

In our
\nterminology, this is the First Science, the Scientia Prima, the Adi Sastra, the
\nPrathama Sastra, the Vedanta Sastra !<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n
