Several times i used to wonder 'how this body with various physiological and psychological/intellectual faculties take birth on this earth with no connections, batteries, chips etc as we find it robots? This is my genuine doubt. Kindly enlighten me?

Good question with poor answers.

Yes, evolution is occurring and we have become more complex from simpler forms.

That says very little to answer the question.

Humans have observed some evidence to suggest HOW we came to be, but not WHY we came to be. Darwinian evolution says there is no reason. It says your life is meaningless.

Your enlightenment will come from within.

Well, no one "designed" it. It evolved through millions and millions of years.

Your biology essential provides a framework to develop motor and mental faculties. Your nervous system has 100 billion neurons and several magnitudes more connections between those neurons and other cells in your body. All those connections between neurons are like the chips of a computer. There are several ways which neurons can modulate the processing of information (neurotransmitters, hormones, LTP, LTD, different classes of synapes, etc.). They can read in sensory input, process the input to recoginize patterns, hold perceptions in memory, perform output operations, etc.

When your born you have more neurons than you will ever have in your entire life. As you learn motor, sensory, and cognitive skills certain connections become stronger and many of your neurons begin to slowly die off. The shear abundance of neurons gives young children an extreme amount of plasticity. As you age that plasiticity is traded for stability (adults don't commonly bust into tears at the grocery store).

Evolution Dude!

Evolution kills off the organisms that don't have the most effective tools. Stupider animals died because they couldn't out-think the predators.

Rinse and repeat that for several million years, and you can get an extremely intelligent animal.

And that's us. :)

1. The Universe began with a quantum singularity:
http://www.princeton.edu/pr/pwb/03/0217/
2. Some of the hot hot energy that appeared in the beginning of the Universe formed tiny bundles of energy called "photons".
3. Two or three photons can come together to form tiny shimmerings called "particles of matter". Neutrons, protons and electrons are particles of matter.
4. Particles can form families called atoms.
5. Atom families can come together in different ways to form different elements:

6. Different elements can come together and form compounds.
7. Compounds can swirl unto themselves in attraction and form huge nebulas in space:

8. Nebulas can condense into hot balls of stars which can have blobs of hot matter spin off and form planets and moons and other consolidations of matter in space.
9. Beginning about 4 billion years ago on Earth, the element called carbon on the planet Earth spontaneously formed compounds with other elements in the right temperatures and pressures. Those compounds are called amino acids. This spontaneous arrangement of elemental photon bundles into amino acids is found everywhere in space and is a part of nature. Amino acids are found in meteorites.
10. Organic compounds such as amino acids can form proteins or enzymes.
11. Sugars and other compounds formed and then the purine and pyrimidine bases of DNA and RNA, which are very complex constructions of photon bundles.
12. Organic cells then can form from those complex compounds.

13. One celled organisms form, which move and learn. Those with good fortune and that learn better stay alive longer.
14. Slowly, cellular organisms arise wherever conditions allow carbon to form amino acids.
15. Organisms differentiate through circumstance and continue to learn and organize and change and adapt. They become more and more complex as they learn and change. That process is called evolution.
16. Organisms evolved senses and nervous systems. Nervous systems work by electrical signals. ( Electricity is a flow of electrons.)
17. The more organisms learned through their senses, the more complex their nervous systems, including their brains, became.
18. The more complex the brain, the more complex the cognitive processes become, including memory, thinking, problem-solving, imagination, dreams, and emotions.
19. Humans have the most complex brain on the Earth.
20. When humans "think" or perceive the world around them through their senses, their nervous system, including their brains, emits waves of photons, brainwaves.
21. Research in the Netherlands recently learned that the brainwave that humans emit that matches the energy wave "frequency" of the Universe is the brainwave that we emit when we are feeling "compassion".
22. "Equipped with his five senses, Man explores the world around him and calls the adventure Science". Edwin Powell Hubble.
23. The more we humans learn, the more we change and become more complex organisms in how we are organized as huge constructions of photonic shimmerings. Energy seems to be seeking greater and greater complexity in the organization of itself.

...I feel that you don't use such big words often. And your question...amidst all the jargon, appears to be, "why aren't we robots?" Well if that's what you mean, we are to an extent, we have chips, called instincts and reflexes, but they aren't as strong as in other animals. Why? Well probably because we are much much smarter. It all evens out.

its simple
we dont want to teach swimming for the fishes when they born ,all of a sudden when they came out they swim freely like wise we are not born with our own physical characters but it was made like that
