What exactly is ESSENCE of ENGINEERING? or to be frank, what is the PHILOSOPHY of ENGINEERING?
I am yet to receive or do a work which is related with ENGINEERING. No SOFTWARE ENGINEERING is not ENGINEERING, it is a CRAFT WORK. SKILLED WORKERS do all these craft/mason works.
Since i have a little bit knowledge of ancient BHARTIYA SCRIPTURES, i can tell that engineering works is connected with the knowledge work. and software engineering is related with shudra/workers/labors work.
Then who exactly is an ENGINEER.
Engineer is someone who builds a pracitical system using the scientific system which are reliable and fault tolerant. This includes bridges, aeroplanes, or all military systems. Even we have plant engineers who designs plant for manufacturing unit. Same for nuclear enginners, electircal engineer. Engineers always use scientific technique to model/simulate the real world event. And above all, the quality/reliability is not compromised.
This then brings us to the important question- In modern times, are ENGINEERS doing ENGINEERING works?
It appears that CAPITALISM have nearly killed ENGINEERS. we only see the jobs which the CORPORATIONS want, not what engineers are supposed to do. Those who are in position of power are controlling the dynamics of market. If tomorrow a vocation arises that they need people who are only good in dancing, it appears that we will soon have dancing schools flourishing. This is the beauty of market economics.
And then in a country like india, where education means only to get a job, it is even more tougher or people don't want to sit back for a moment and ponder that what exactly is wrong. No, if you say that we have not cleared IIT-JEE (BTW, i had cleared IIIT-Bangalore written examination, it is a different story) and you are not a capable engineer, then i will tell you to read EDISON or TESLA who never completed their engineering degree, yet it is they who changed the world. Neither is IIT any source of engineering nor is it bigger than india.
One of the most important point regarding with an ENGINEER is that he builds the NATION. In vedic era, VISHWKARMA were the ENGINEERS who used to build maginificent forts, palaces and other things. So for indian, engineering is nothing, only if true thinking emerges.
"ENGINEERS PRACTICE THEIR ENGINEERING"
PS: This is not to belittle others who are not ENGINEERS. For me, even a GENUINE ART work is important or great, as it allows people to express themselves.
