THE MODERN AGE OR THE AGE OF CRISIS?

The discord between the development of positive science on one hand and the dehumanization of man on the other hand is the worst crisis of the modern age. Man lost foothold in the dilemma of conquering and quest for power or authority. Man has lost ownership of himself and the 'individual self' got crushed too. This is a sceptical age where men are seeking a new faith to replace the faith of their ancestors. Man's knowledge has outrun his wisdom and he is haunted by the destructive power of his own inventions which he is unable to control. This is an age of fierce paradox in which our perspective is thwarted.  Men are caged by their obssessions of authority without integrity.
