Mysticism and physics

Abstract

In recent years the perennial book browser could not have failed to notice a spate of books whose titles appear to promise new insights into the realms of physics. Amongst the most titillating, undoubtedly, have been The Tao of Physics and The Dancing Wu Li Masters – An Overview of the New Physics.

The New Vision of Reality: Parallels between Modern Physics and Eastern Mysticism

Fritjof Capra

I am a physicist, and my main interest over the past fifteen years has been in the dramatic change of concepts and ideas that has occurred in physics during the first three decades of the century. These are still being elaborated in our current theories of matter. The new concepts in physics have brought about a profound change in our world view: from the mechanistic world view of Descartes and Newton to a holistic and

I am grateful to Anthony Garrett for his comments in defence of the book The Dancing Wu Li Masters: An Overview of the New Physics ( Physics Bulletin August 1982 p270). It is perhaps not surprising that there should be a ‘champion’ for the book; however, I am surprised that Dr Garrett should believe that ‘any device which can help disseminate the ideas of modern physics to a broader audience is worthwhile …’.

The New Physics And Cosmology

Abstract What happens when the Dalai Lama meets with leading physicists and a historian? This book is the carefully edited record of the fascinating discussions at a Mind and Life conference in which five leading physicists and a historian (David Finkelstein, George Greenstein, Piet Hut, Arthur Zajonc, Anton Zeilinger, and Tu Weiming) discussed with the Dalai Lama current thought in theoretical quantum physics, in the context of Buddhist philosophy. A contribution to the science-religion interface, and a useful explanation of our basic understanding of quantum reality, couched at a level that intelligent readers without a deep involvement in science can grasp. In the tradition of other popular books on resonances between modern quantum physics and Zen or Buddhist mystical traditions--notably The Dancing Wu Li Masters and The Tao of Physics, this book gives a clear and useful update of the genuine correspondences between these two rather disparate approaches to understanding the nature of reality.
