Quantum Rope: Science, Mysticism and Management
Alpha, beta, om and omega,
This is essence of life pataka.- Quantum Rope (p.25)
Science deals with exploration of matter, mysticism with exploration of that which explores the matter. One deals with the ‘reality out there’ the other with search within. The two complement each other to improve the material and spiritual conditions of humanity. In ‘Quantum Rope’ this complementarity is presented through a synthesis of Western scientific world-views and Eastern ‘re’-see (Rishi) visions. As both science and mysticism have implications for human living and day to day existence, they influence the way we perceive the reality around us in organizations, communities and society. These influences are explored in the book through thirty-three ‘scientific verses’, their explanations and the some quantum voices originating from the corporate corridors. Through many verses, it takes us in the direction of convergence of Science, Spirituality and Transcendence (SST).
