________________ Non-violence means like "one's own self unto others.” Atmvat Serve Bhooteshu.' One does not come in the way of anyone else, small or big. To lead science towards. this direction it is necessary to direct the minds of the scientists to fix or settle the scientific terminology. Now-a-days science is being utilised to foster idle: curiosity, 'amusement and selfishness, instead of being used to acquire more and more knowledge. The reason is that the scientific terminology has not been made definite and exact. To use science for physical comforts and conveniences and amorous life is not its real use. Real science tries to test and explain things which cannot be understood so easily without the help of investigations and experiments. This kind of science will lead mankind to world-brotherhood and to the good of the whole mankind. In short it is necessary to co-relate seience with philo sophy. Now-a-days philosophy is being regarded as orthodox. Science has become all-powerful in all walks of life. Philosophy which can lead science to the proper path is regarded as of secondary importnance. Who will then lead science to the proper path and proper direction? Non-violence has the utmost importance in life, Live and let live,-The principle embodied in the proverb is the general practical form of the ideal of non-violence. Non-violence of this sort can also prevail and prosper in the field of science only when science becomes firmly establibhed on the basis of phiiosophy.
