Vedanta in Computer Science

By Sri Chiraan 2009/05/15

  • Second lord Mercury exalted, Saturn in gopuramsha or Jupiter in simhasanamsha, the native will become a Vedantagnya.
  • Jupiter in kendra or trikona aspected by Mercury or Venus, Saturn in paravatamsha, one inspects Vedata shatra.
  • Jupiter in kendra, Venus in uttamamsha in kendra and chandra in devalokamsha , native becomes vedantagnya. 

Operating system is the crucial ingredient of the Computer. OS or Kernel  forms the foundation over which a computing task is accomplished in a machine. OS resides in the Computer, to  a outer world it is invisible, it stays in a realizable form to the students of Computer science, for all others its magic at work.

  • OS is in the form of Knowledge and is the King that commands the resources of the computer.
  • Every Other ingredient is subservient to this King and it has a final say in all the activities of the computer .
  • The other software's can run on the computer, but has to obey the dictum of OS, and has to depend on the OS for its execution.
  • At any given time OS has greater say than the tertiary software, and directs the resources to be allocated to the software as per its capacity and requirement from time to time.

Advaita philosophy

  • Both OS and other software's are of same type [AS ATMA &  PARAMATMA are of same type].
  • All software's are similar and mere set of instructions of similar types inherent to CPU  and hence one.
  • Difference is in the worldly terms but from CPU point of view they all are similar and in fact one only one.
  • Both reside in the same place i.e. at any given point of time instruction that is being executed in the processor [CPU] cannot be distinguished whether it is of OS or OF software, its just a instruction for the processor and processor irrespectively executes it. [Thus the original form of Software, whether OS or any Application is in the form of a set of instructions common to both, thus they can be declared as same].
  • As execution is independent and common to both apps and OS, the delineation of a task is external manifestation and is mithya [of local consequences only], in reality from CPU point of view, it makes no difference whether OS is operating or Application is running.
  • Certain specialized application when given access to higher resources of the Computer, can act akin to OS and in fact merge as a enhancement to OS [when written in assembly modules].
  • Thus a application is subservient OS as long as it feels as an application, if it realizes that it is equal to OS in form and perspective, it can gain access to higher resource's of Architecture and merge with OS.
  • So as ATMA [application] realizes that it is in fact Paramatma [OS] [ AHAM BRAMHASMI] it can merge into the OS [ BRAMHA].

Dvaita philosophy

  • Both OS and Application Software are unique and different [ATMA and PARAMATMA are different and unique].
  • Though they are made up of similar knowledge instructions, Application software is subset of OS [Bimba pratibimba].
  • Difference is not only in the worldly terms but also there is Difference as OS is superior and has complete control of application layers.
  • All other software's are also unique and different.
  • The superiority of OS is visible and to the experience of us all as OS if busy in other activity, application does not show result [karma is not accomplished as per desire].
  • Though OS and apps instruction set and only one instruction at a given point resides CPU, [it becomes difficult to identify whether CPU is executing OS or application] such a overlap exists but OS retains its superiority through Clock and control circuitry.
  • At no point can Application override a perfect OS.
  • Even if Application realizes the presence of OS and go according to its allocation of resources, all it can expect is better resources and smooth execution and priority from OS. But never can it equal OS.
  • Even after such prioritisation [due to frequent execution and presence in good books; prefetch] it still remains subservient to OS .
  • So Atma is never equal to Paramatma and always remains subservient to HIM.
  • If application tries to gain access to higher resources, for which it is not eligible, it is either termed as VIRUS [tamoyogya] or the computer crashes, with OS opting to pre-empt the software .
  • Sometimes such crashes can be irreversible [Andhatamas].
  • But in all cases OS remains the KING, before and thereafter too.
