The probability of impossibility is Zero. - Article By Anu Rahul Nandhan S

What is impossibility? Things we have not yet known to have happened. Impossibility is an idea. Not a pure science. I can state events that have happened that prove this statement right.

There was this extremely normal family in Germany. They had only one daughter. The daughter met with an accident and was under coma for a month. When she finally revived, she couldn’t speak German. She had acquired fluency in French instead. It wasn’t that the girl did not have prior exposure to French. Before the accident, she did have a couple of weeks in French training. Clearly, a couple of weeks weren’t enough to acquire fluency in French. But she spoke as if she were native French, rather than a secondary language. She found it difficult to read German anymore and she couldn’t even respond to her parents.

On investigation, it was found that the family did have a French root long ago, many generations away. So what we call a coma, did it influence her to bring back the long lost genetic memory? Or was it a blessing from the Gods? Research on Genetic memory is still a nascent subject. It deals with the ability of our DNA to save information through generations. This information is probably not memories in the form of people and incidents. This memory is in the form of skills and abilities. It is not impossible, as I have mentioned above. It is a possibility. A farmer’s son is naturally adept at farming. So is a King’s son at Kingship. This kind of memory is stored in our DNA.

The girl had inherited the ability to speak French. This is also explainable in terms of genetic memory. There has been a research paper in 1994 which suggests that our DNA actually translates to something. There is a language coded in our DNA which is nicknamed as the “language of the angels”. This supposedly angelic language is believed to be the origin of all human languages. The research concluded that this language encoded in our DNA is somehow related to the languages we speak but is too early to understand things yet.

So if this really is true, who has encoded the language in our DNA? Do three centuries of Darwinian evolution theory come to an end? If this theory is found authentic, it also suggests that mankind was not formed by mistake. Then who did create mankind? Aren’t we alone in this universe? Are there other intelligent species too advanced to be understood? Or is this the work of God?

I find the word “impossible” highly disturbing; especially knowing that anything is possible.
