Studies in Haribhadrasuri
could be such particles? Could they help us in getting a remote control over the chain reaction, which causes explosion of an atom or hydrogen bomb? How could such particles be transmitted as mediating particles? These are the pathways, which may be followed by an academician or technologist who has read Jaina literature thoroughly in its mathematical aspect of the Karma theory. Could this casuality search not save the world from the nuclear hazards?
As soon as the maximal velocity postulate worked out the casuality of mass energy relation, the possibility of making an atom bomb through chain reaction was sought out and became the top-secret topic for the developed nations. But the minimal velocity postulate stands in opposition to it to counteract the abuses of the atom bombs and worked out a possibility of some more mysterious controls at the nuclear dimensions. Professor Emeritus Kazuo Kondo has envisaged that gravitons might be such particles that may be moving with the velocity of half of the Planck's constant. It is natural to imagine that if fast moving neutrons could cause fission and produce a critical state of chain reaction, then we could also think of charming the particles and cause them to get neutralized from the effects of the neutrons permanently, through the results of the minimalmaximal field theory.
At this moment it may be emphasized that the centres of Jaina learning should be prepared for interdisciplinary studies for which they should come up to accommodate such scholars who are mathematicians and physicists as well as interested in the Jaina studies. There are several secrets other than the casuality concepts detailed above, in the Karma system theoretic approach of the Digambara Jaina canonical texts, full of mathematical symbolic manoeuvre, on which the author has been recently working with financial support of the Indian National Science Academy. Time has come when traditional scholars cannot keep their eyes and ears closed for scientific knowledge.
