Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vedanta has the reputation, not entirely undeserved, of being a difficult subject. No less egregious is the reputation of mathematics and physics. All the same, the questions that engage the Vedantin are of interest to the mathematicians and the physicists, who are equally curious about the universe we are in. How do we describe the pattern of frost on a window pane, cracks in metal or the gradient of a bumpy mountain path? What shape is that of a cloud? How long is the coastline of an island? The answer is fractals. It is complex and it is infinite; such is the story of man trying to grapple with the mystery of his physical mortality wrapped in the deeper mystery of the universe.The voyage of discovery as played out in the lives of philosophers and physicists is deeply human and belies the stereotype of the scientist guided only by rationality and objectivity. In this work, the author wades through between the quantum mysteries of Schrodinger's cat on the one hand and the pitfalls of pseudo sciences on the other and reaches out to Vedanta and succeeds in demystifying it to a large extent, although even today this field is viewed as an elitist domain or an arcane high priest's obsession. Although a natural sequel to his earlier monograph On Divine Sovereignty and Our Freedom published in 2004, this one breaks fresh ground and fields the posers, whether from the physicist or the neuroscientist. Science and religion are often viewed as polar opposites or parallel universes, but the really great thinkers do not think so. The reader who has the patience to read through fully is bound to find that the world of Vedanta is not such a scary, alien place after all.

Download or read book Mystery of the Universe written by Rudolf Steiner and published by Rudolf Steiner Press. This book was released on 2013-11-06 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ancient mystery saying called on the human being to 'Know Yourself!' Rudolf Steiner explains that this maxim is not asking us to study subjectively our own personal character, but rather to come to a knowledge of our true, archetypal human nature - and with it the position we occupy in the universe. In these eloquent lectures - formerly published as Man, Hieroglyph of the Universe - Rudolf Steiner speaks of the human being as the model of creation, the primary focus of the cosmos. In an extensive exposition he talks of the constellation of cosmic forces, zodiac and planets amongst which we find ourselves situated. Only a true knowledge of our human nature and the spiritual forces which surround us - the microcosm within the greater macrocosm - can enable humanity to progress, he says. This book is an important contribution to that goal: the development of a contemporary spiritual science of the human being.

Rodney Collin examines 20th-century scientific discoveries and traditional esoteric teachings and concludes that the driving force behind everything is neither procreation nor survival, but expansion of awareness.

Download or read book At the Edge of Time written by Dan Hooper and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2019-11-05 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new look at the first few seconds after the Big Bang—and how research into these moments continues to revolutionize our understanding of our universe Scientists in the past few decades have made crucial discoveries about how our cosmos evolved over the past 13.8 billion years. But there remains a critical gap in our knowledge: we still know very little about what happened in the first seconds after the Big Bang. At the Edge of Time focuses on what we have recently learned and are still striving to understand about this most essential and mysterious period of time at the beginning of cosmic history. Delving into the remarkable science of cosmology, Dan Hooper describes many of the extraordinary and perplexing questions that scientists are asking about the origin and nature of our world. Hooper examines how we are using the Large Hadron Collider and other experiments to re-create the conditions of the Big Bang and test promising theories for how and why our universe came to contain so much matter and so little antimatter. We may be poised to finally discover how dark matter was formed during our universe’s first moments, and, with new telescopes, we are also lifting the veil on the era of cosmic inflation, which led to the creation of our world as we know it. Wrestling with the mysteries surrounding the initial moments that followed the Big Bang, At the Edge of Time presents an accessible investigation of our universe and its origin.

Download or read book Probable Impossibilities written by Alan Lightman and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2022-04-19 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The acclaimed author of Einstein’s Dreams tackles "big questions like the origin of the universe and the nature of consciousness ... in an entertaining and easily digestible way” (Wall Street Journal) with a collection of meditative essays on the possibilities—and impossibilities—of nothingness and infinity, and how our place in the cosmos falls somewhere in between. Can space be divided into smaller and smaller units, ad infinitum? Does space extend to larger and larger regions, on and on to infinity? Is consciousness reducible to the material brain and its neurons? What was the origin of life, and can biologists create life from scratch in the lab? Physicist and novelist Alan Lightman, whom The Washington Post has called “the poet laureate of science writers,” explores these questions and more—from the anatomy of a smile to the capriciousness of memory to the specialness of life in the universe to what came before the Big Bang. Probable Impossibilities is a deeply engaged consideration of what we know of the universe, of life and the mind, and of things vastly larger and smaller than ourselves.
