Book Description
About the Book
We are surrounded by mountains of unlimited mysteries. In any discipline, if one goes a little deeper, he encounters myriads of mystical elements. Starting from the question about the existence of cute imaginary numbers (are they really imaginary?) in mathematics, to the meaning of incomprehensible wavefunction in physics and the inaccessible origin of life in the life-sciences, just to name a few, we cannot escape mysteries around us. In fact, the developments of modern science itself over the last four centuries have even opened them wider before us, as never before. In his spiritual journey, a mystic also encounters mysteries at every step and looks for answers. What are the various mysteries in physics, mathematics, life-sciences or cosmology? How does a scientist or a mystic encounter them? What paths does he take to move ahead? What guides his journey and what is the future of such a seeker? Explore these and more in this extremely precious publication, Mysticism A Meeting Point of Science and Religion, with one of the most brilliant scientist and saint of our times, Dr. T. D. Singh. Dr. Singh, who had a firsthand experience of both, with his Ph.D. in Physical Organic Chemistry from the University of California, Irvine and having undergone devout mystical training in the age-old Vaishnava Vedantic tradition of India, takes us into its depth with utmost insights and simplicity.

Preface
Humanity has made incredible progress in the last four centuries. Today, we can observe galaxies and quasars billions of light years away. We are able to examine at a surprising depth the intricate structure of atoms and their behavior at extremely low temperatures. Undoubtedly, science and technology have made unfathomable leaps. However, upon taking a closer look, one would find that along with these developments of modern science a large number of mysteries or inexplicable phenomena have surfaced before us.

Today, we may even have more mysteries than answers.

Introduction
It has been the ageless human endeavour to understand life and its various manifestations. Darwin's portrait of life, commonly known as Darwinism, has left a great influence on western minds. His account of life, based on 'evolution' and 'natural selection' has significantly affected our worldview. The East, however, because of its strong spiritual foundation, has always found it hard to imbibe Darwinism. In eastern tradition, especially in Vedanta, there is an entirely different conception about life. In this view, life is much more than the morphological structure of living organisms (animated bodies).
