Shri Krishna and Quantum...

Dr Bhaskar Bora

What if the deepest truths of the universe were not discovered in laboratories—but revealed thousands of years ago? 
In Shri Krishna and Quantum Consciousness, Dr Bhaskar Bora presents a bold and intellectually rigorous exploration of reality at the intersection of ancient Hindu philosophy and modern quantum science. 
Drawing from the Bhagavad Gita, Vedanta, and yogic philosophy, this book examines how the teachings of Shri Krishna resonate with cutting-edge concepts in physics, including: 
• Quantum entanglement and non-local consciousness 
• The observer effect and the nature of awareness 
• Superposition, duality, and the illusion of reality (Maya) 
• Time, causality, and cyclical existence 
• The unified field and the concept of Brahman 
Rather than forcing a comparison, this work builds a thoughtful dialogue between two powerful systems of understanding—one ancient, one modern—both pointing toward a deeper, unified truth. 
At the centre of this exploration is Shri Krishna—not merely as a religious figure, but as a profound model of cosmic intelligence, consciousness, and the ultimate observer. 
This book is designed for: 
• Readers of Hindu philosophy and Vedanta 
• Students of quantum physics and metaphysics 
• Seekers exploring consciousness and reality 
• Thinkers interested in science–spirituality dialogue 
This is not a book of easy answers. 
It is an invitation to question everything you think you know about reality. 
Because perhaps— 
the universe is not made of matter, 
but of consciousness itself.
