speech and hearing were just simple
happenings but, in present times, many new discoveries have
been made which have shown the extent to which these powers
of speech and hearing are a great blessing of God – unique gifts
which can induce oceans of gratitude for the benefactor. The
uniqueness of this blessing is illustrated by an experiment once
carried out by a scientist.
He took a glass bulb, put an electric bell inside, and then
sealed its mouth. He then extracted all the air from inside the
bulb. The switch of the bell was outside the glass, and when the
switch was turned on, one could see the bell ringing but no sound
from it could be heard.
Such experiments show that when a person hears the voice
of another it is by natural transmission. The voice coming out
of the lips of a person creates waves in the air. These waves
travel and reach the ear of another person, then that person
hears and understands these sound waves as meaningful words
by means of extremely complex hearing system. There are a
number of provisions in nature which facilitate this unique
system of speech and hearing. One who has any knowledge of
these modern discoveries of science can have such a deep feeling
for his benefactor as was not possible for the man born in the
pre-scientific age.

too man used to travel by sea and river. And
he had the opportunity to thank God for those journeys over
water. But in modern times the research on this subject has very
greatly added to the point of reference for man to be grateful to
God. For instance, what is the law of nature by which the boat
sails on the water? Man did not possess this knowledge earlier.
In present times vast research in all matters has very greatly
