Causality in Science and Vedanta - Leading to the Solution of the Quantum Measurement Problem English Swami Paramananda Bharati

by Paramananda Bharati

The ninety year old problem of quantum measurement in Physics involves the interaction of the mind and the quantum system. The nature of this interaction being unknown, has given rise to six different guesses. It is generally told that some of them are even bizarre! On the other hand, Niels Bohr made the hypothesis that mind is a quantum system and it was further developed by von Neumann and David Bohm. Somehow, their works have not been made use of by anyone to solve the quantum measurement problem. An attempt is made in this monograph to use this hypothesis in the lines of Védānta, which does a holistic analysis of the mind and the intellect. It has led to a disarmingly simple solution of the quantum measurement problem. Further, as is clear from the appendices, this holistic approach of the monograph is sure to give rich and new ideas to researchers in many branches of Science.
