A Physics of Possibilities
Rs. 2,490.00or 3 X Rs.830.00 withRead morePaul Levy
Explore the World of Quantum SpiritualityQuantum theory demands a radical re-visioning of the role of consciousness as the underlying organizing principle of the universe. Quantum physics is the bridge that elegantly connects two heretofore separate parts of ourselves in one stunning stroke, unifying the physical with the spiritual dimension of experience.Written for readers with no background in quantum physics, Levy contemplates the deeper philosophical underpinnings of quantum physics, exploring the fundamental conditions it provokes: • What is implied by the concept of no “objective reality?”• How are we participating via our consciousness in creating our experience of a reality that quantum theory itself describes as “dreamlike?”• What are the implications for us in our everyday lives that as quantum theory reveals that what we call reality is more like a dream that we had previously imagined? -

Until the End of Time: Mind, Matter, and Our Search for Meaning in an Evolving Universe
Rs. 2,990.00or 3 X Rs.996.67 withRead moreBrian Greene
A cracking read…Greene serves up plenty of revelatory detail… If you want to know how everything got here and where it’s going, read this book. –– Stephen Bleach ― Sunday Times
Until the End of Time is encyclopaedic in its ambition and its erudition, often heartbreaking, stuffed with too many profundities that I wanted to quote, as well as anecdotes from Greene’s own life – of which we should wish for more – that had me laughing … A love letter to the ephemeral cosmic moment when everything is possible. — Dennis Overbye ― New York Times
It takes a storyteller to explain the sciences, and few are as gifted as Brian Greene. There’s real wonder in his descriptions of galaxies and planets forming, and of life blooming after that. It is all part of a fleeting moment in the cosmos – one that will eventually end – yet Greene finds meaning and optimism in everything around us. –– Chris Schluep, Amazon Editor
