About this listen

"Science does not need mysticism and mysticism does not need science, but man needs both." —Fritjof Capra, Ph.D.
Their paths to the truth could not be more different—but the amazing thing is that, in their own ways, the mystics and the scientists are discovering the same truths about our world. In non-technical language, with no complex mathematics or formulae, this thought-provoking program explores the main concepts and theories of modern physics, the revelations coming from particle accelerators and laboratories—and compares them with the ancient tenets of Hinduism, Buddhism and Taoism. In the process, we gain a clear and fascinating picture of how such seemingly disparate areas of thought are ultimately quests for the same kind of understanding.

I’m going to have to return this. The narration is like something out of a dystopian film. Weird, monotonous and as if it’s “far away” somehow. Very odd

Couldn’t listen to it. Awful narration and production

there is so much common between Morden physics and eastern religions/teachings. the author has should knowledge of both worlds and is able to draw a rationale picture connecting the dots and in the process helping people understand.

great listen.

It was clearly spoken. Easy enough to understand for the non physicist, and not long. I feel educated by the experience.
