I found this in a friends blog. Isn't it amazing how human minds think and perceive different things. I have never thought so much about diffrentiation and integration. Only thing that I knew was Diffrentiation was difficult and integration was even more difficult. I had a friend who once asked me "Why do we put that big "S" in front of the function while doing integration?". Such was our affinity to do integral and differential calculus. But they are always guys who thought about it too much and bumped up the class average. Do you think the author of the following could be one such anti-social element. Read this fully and you will know what an amalgam of Einstein and Socrates will be....

I just started to think about Differential and Integral calculus and started to relate it to the real life.Again don't ask why? May be I was meant to do that :-). Simple enough!!
The process of applying differential calculus, called differentiation, reduces higher order terms to lowerorder terms in any continuous function f(x). If y = f(x) then the differentiation of f(x) is defined as,f'(x) = dy/dx. In short words f'(x) describes rate of change of the quantity 'y' wrt quantity 'x'. The basic premise is that, every human has a governing function f(x) such that f(x) is continuous. This function f(x) is unique for everyone. Every human is acts different in the same situation, as instantaneousvalue of the function with respect time is different for each person. Bothering about small things in lifeand trying to be different in various situations (in approx. terms 'differentiation') results in a functionof lower order.
Integration on the other hand is opposite of differentiation. An intergral of the function over a set oflimits, gives the area under the functional curve. Thus integration provides the bigger picture thendifferentiation (which is measuring anything at very small intervals of time). In other words integrationprovides us a mechanism to look at the bigger things. So if one has gain the knowledge of the integrate themselves towards God, who is infinite in capacity and benevolence. One has to try and reach the infiniteHim by focusing on higher order things. Integration of functions result in higher order functions. And itwould be common knowledge continuous application of integration would cause difficulty in integrating thesame. This can be attributed that each step we take closer to God, the next step becomes increasinglydifficult to achieve. Beyond a point a lot of sacrifices or renunciation is needed from our side to reach Him. Example, going from atheist to become a theist is easier to compared to taking the next step closer to God.
So this is something that i just thought about, please let me know your comments. It is not perfect by any chance. Anything that would enhance clarity or better understanding would be appreciated.

No!!! I dont believe you actually brought Big B's "article" to your blog! What if someone actually likes it?? Well it probably would get linked to your prev. Bernie Mac comment.
