The Origins Project at ASU, directed by Lawrence Krauss, aims to tackle profound questions about the universe by bringing together leading scientists and intellectuals. The project’s fifth anniversary event delves into the ultimate origin: the beginning of the universe itself. The panel discusses whether science might soon reach the limits of what we can understand […]
Quantum Enigmatists
Introduction to Quantum Perspectives Overview of Quantum Enigmatists vs. Quantum Materialists The realm of quantum mechanics, a cornerstone of modern physics, is as much a battleground of ideas as it is a field of scientific inquiry. Two camps, often at odds, emerge from the quantum fog: the Quantum Enigmatists and the Quantum Materialists. Quantum Enigmatists […]

Introduction to Consciousness and Quantum Mechanics Overview of the Transcendental Meditation technique The Transcendental Meditation (TM) technique is a form of silent mantra meditation developed by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. It is practiced for 20 minutes twice per day while sitting comfortably with the eyes closed. The technique is said to allow the individual’s mind to […]
Mind Brain Behavior Symposium: Christopher Walsh
Introduction to Human Brain Evolution Overview of Human Brain Evolution The human brain is a marvel of evolution, a complex organ that has undergone significant changes over millions of years. From the early hominids with brains one-third the size of modern humans to the sophisticated organ that defines Homo sapiens today, the journey of brain […]
How The Universe Was Created According To Hinduism?
Introduction to Hindu Cosmology The Concept of a Multiverse in Hinduism In Hindu cosmology, the notion of a multiverse is not only acknowledged but intricately detailed. The ancient texts describe an infinite number of universes, each undergoing cycles of creation, preservation, and dissolution. These universes, known as Brahmandas, are said to exist like bubbles in […]
The Quantum Conspiracy: What Popularizers of QM Don’t Want You to Know
Introduction to Quantum Mechanics and the Perception of Reality Setting the Stage for Quantum Mechanics Quantum Mechanics (QM) emerged in the early 20th century as a revolutionary framework for understanding the microscopic world. It was a response to experimental observations that could not be explained by classical physics, such as the discrete energy levels of […]
Hinduism Explained Logically
Introduction to Hinduism Understanding ‘Namaste’: A Greeting of Respect The word Namaste, often accompanied by a gesture of hands pressed together near the heart, is a ubiquitous greeting in the Hindu culture. It is derived from Sanskrit, where ‘namah’ means ‘bow’ and ‘te’ means ‘to you,’ translating to ‘I bow to you.’ This greeting encapsulates […]
Three revolutions of Quantum Theory
Quantum theory has undergone three revolutions, with the first being the foundational period from 1902 to around 1970. This era covered the development of key concepts like Planck’s blackbody radiation, Einstein’s photoelectric effect, the Bohr atom, Schrödinger’s equation, Heisenberg’s matrix mechanics, and Dirac’s work on the electron. The second revolution, influenced by a group of […]
