Dr. Amit Goswami is a retired professor of physics from the University of Oregon. While researching the area of quantum physics, he discovered that when quantum physics is formulated within the metaphysics of qualified non-dualism, as in Indian Vedanta, questions regarding meaning are immediately resolved. His work thus integrates science and spirituality. This work has culminated in his most recent book with the physician Valentina Onisor, Quantum Spirituality. In 2009, he started a movement called “quantum activism,” which continues to gain ground. In 2018, together with his collaborators, he established Quantum Activism Vishwalayam, an institution of transformative education in India, based on quantum science and the primacy of consciousness. Dr. Goswami is the author of numerous books, most notably: The Self-Aware Universe, Physics of the Soul, and God is Not Dead. He was featured in the movie What the Bleep Do We Know!? and the documentaries Dalai Lama Renaissance and The Quantum Activist.Visit  https://www.amitgoswami.org/   "Where East Meets West" is a collaboration between Ep.Log Media Network & America Meditating Radio Subscribe now to get notified about the latest episodes!
