Ego (spirituality):
In spirituality, and especially nondual, mystical and eastern meditative traditions, the human being is often conceived as being in the illusion of individual existence, and separated from other aspects of creation. This "sense of doership" or sense of individual existence is that part which believes it is the human being, and believes it must fight for itself in the world, is ultimately unaware and unconscious of its own true nature. The ego is often associated with mind and the sense of time, which compulsively thinks in order to be assured of its future existence, rather than simply knowing its own self and the present.

The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor
The much awaited movie of the year "The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor" is going to be released on August 1.The movie stars Brendan Fraser reprising his role as explorer Rick O'Connell, along with his son Alex, wife Evelyn and her brother, Jonathan . The two parents are now retired, but they must stop the resurrected tyrannical Han, the Dragon Emperor , a mummy awoken from a 2,000-year-old curse, and whose army was found by 18-year old Alex. The Emperor now wishes to rebuild his empire, and threatens to plunge the world into his merciless, unending service with his Terracotta Army. Their chances of stopping him are thin, for the Emperor has not only an army of great magnitude, but controls the five elements. The undead Terracotta Army faces another, smaller, raised-from-the-dead army made of the Dragon Emperor's enemies, who died when they were crushed under the Great Wall of China.The emperor on which this fictitious account was based on was Qin Shi Huang and not the first Emperor of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Gaozu of Han.

TELESCOPE:
Are you searching for a device which helps you to see planets and stars clearly? Then here is the telescope. A telescope is an instrument designed for the observation of remote objects and the collection of electromagnetic radiation. The first known practically functioning telescopes were invented in the Netherlands in the beginning of the 17th century. The name "Telescope" was invented by an unidentified Greek poet/theologian, present at a banquet held in 1611 by Prince Federico Cesi. It was given to a version of the instrument constructed by Galileo Galilei. Telescope can refer to a whole range of instruments operating in most regions of the electromagnetic spectrum.

RADIO:
U would have wondered how the radio is able to receive and transmit signals and amplify it. Radio is the transmission of signals, by modulation of electromagnetic waves with frequencies below those of visible light. Electromagnetic radiation travels by means of oscillating electromagnetic fields that pass through the air and the vacuum of space. Information is carried by systematically changing some property of the radiated waves, such as amplitude, frequency, or phase. When radio waves pass an electrical conductor, the oscillating fields induce an alternating current in the conductor. This can be detected and transformed into sound or other signals that carry information.

THOMAS ALWA EDISON:
In this article I am going to tell you about THOMAS ALWA EDISON .Thomas Alva Edison was an American inventor and businessman who developed many devices that greatly influenced life around the world, including the phonograph and a long lasting light bulb. Dubbed "The Wizard of Menlo Park" by a newspaper reporter, he was one of the first inventors to apply the principles of mass production to the process of invention, and therefore is often credited with the creation of the first industrial research laboratory.
Edison is considered one of the most prolific inventors in history, holding 1,093 U.S. patents in his name, as well as many patents in the United Kingdom, France and Germany.
