The quest of man for scientific understanding and the pursuit of spiritual enlightenment is old. For centuries, these two paths have diverged, with science seeking empirical truth and spirituality exploring the mysteries of the unknown. The fascination of humankind for afterlife, the life after this life on earth too is not new. Yet, as we embark on this journey through ""Quantum Mysticism,"" we find ourselves at the threshold of a revolutionary convergence.
The ancient Greek philosopher, Aristotle, once said, ""The whole is more than the sum of its parts."" This timeless wisdom echoes through the corridors of modern physics, where quantum mechanics reveals the intricate dance of particles and waves. Similarly, the venerable Buddhist master, Nagarjuna, proclaimed, ""Reality is not something that can be captured by concepts or language."" These words resonate with the quantum notion that reality is fundamentally non-dual and interconnected.
As we discuss the intersection of science and spirituality, we find ourselves in the company of visionary thinkers. Albert Einstein's assertion that ""science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind"" sets the stage for our exploration. The Dalai Lama's emphasis on the importance of ""inner science"" - the study of the mind and its nature - harmonizes with the quantum perspective on consciousness.
""Quantum Mysticism"" is not a treatise on proving or disproving spiritual or scientific dogma. Rather, it is an odyssey of discovery, illuminating the hidden patterns and symmetries that underlie our existence in simple and easy to comprehend style.
