Science is the knowledge of the causes, laws and history of the origin, existence, development, gradual change, and transformation etc. of matter.

The knowledge pertaining to the earth and other planets of our solar system, orbiting in space comes under cosmology. The naturalistic and historical knowledge pertaining to the Earth with all its matter which includes the plant world, animal world and the human world, is divided into various science disciplines like Physics, Chemistry, Geology, Biology, Botany, Anthropology, Ethnology, Psychiatry, Social Science, Ecology etc. Mathematics is an indispensable part of Science.

Science and its various branches came into being as a result of the tireless efforts of scientists to unravel the mysteries of the unknown and the knowledge derived from the research and explorations.

The progress of knowledge and science is intrinsically linked with the progress of mankind. When man set off on the path to progress he stopped relying merely on what nature provided him for survival; instead, with the help of his own intrinsic physical and mental labour, he devised tools for procuring food, fashioning clothes and building shelters.

Technology is the mechanical means by which ideas oriented to achievement of material goals is applied. Knowledge (ideas) about matter is elevated into scientific theory — science only when their correctness is proved through application or practice. Between ideas (theory) and practice, practice is primary; as correct scientific knowledge is arrived at through experiences gathered from repeated practice, and new theories are formulated from application of this scientific knowledge.

Science and technology are creations of mankind and an index of the continual development of society. This development owes its origin to the practical results borne out of the indomitable desire to use nature and natural environment to fulfil man's needs.

Therefore, in order to deploy science in the service of mankind, people with a scientific bent of mind should treat the present transitional phase of the human race (towards socialism) as a manifestation of the development of historical laws of the earlier phases, uphold it as the causal factor behind the development of the different branches of science and champion the truth that it's possible to deploy science in the service of all sections of mankind only in a socialist society.

Thus, the programme and tasks of an organization geared to the propagation of science is derived from the lessons we have learned from history studied insofar.
