One of the first book to blend physics and mysticism, it's surprisingly easy on the brain and a fascinating read.
LibraryThing member lool
Fascinating journey into quantum physics and the correlations with the great eastern religions. It changes the way you look at what is considered to be the reality.
LibraryThing member snuffles_lib
nuclear physics, insight into quantum mechanics, an all encompassing insight into hinduish, bhuddhism, Taoism and the zen, and how all these are related, i can bet u've never read such a book b4. if u're scientific minded at all, u'll read this book...

Physics and philosophy: well worth reading.

Thought-provoking about the nature of reality.
LibraryThing member br77rino
Great comparison of eastern religious motifs and modern quantum mechanical physics.
LibraryThing member rajaratnam
Yet another independent thinker. Worth reading at a time when the baby of spirituality risks being emptied with the bath water of institutional religion. Very useful for opening further an open mind.

the search of science for underlying entities of the universe finds its coherence with eastern philosophy / religion.
LibraryThing member deckla
You can understand the basic principles of physics if you undertake this book. The Dancing Wu Li Masters is more engaging.

Illustrates how quantum physics is beginning to use the same language as Eastern metaphysics/cosmology to describe the basic constituents of the Universe. Everything is composed of everything else; everything is a part of everything else. It is an oxymoron to suggest that anything can exist outside
