My Diary : Bonsai of Human Development

I was watching the beauty of Bonsai Tree and some of them are over 500 year to 800 year old. The size of branch and leaves have changed.

The size of leaves and Branches are defined by DNA. This means external factors can change DNA during its own life. Someone calls this phenomena under epigenetics.

I am relating Bonsai story to ‘Minds of Villagers’. Over the period of time when someone cuts the branches again, the tree start shrinking, the leaves start shrinking. At one point of time the DNA of human grown there also becomes Bonsai.

Just a thought strike – Are 500 year plus tribes in various countries in world are modern ‘Bonsai of Human Development.’
