Guest guest Posted October 18, 2002 Report Share Posted October 18, 2002 Sri: Srimathe Ramanujaya Nama: Dear Sri Parthasarathy Swamin, adiyEn's praNams. We have to be careful to understand that QT is trying to describe the physical world and not the mental or spiritual world. Therefore dissemination of the data gathered in our minds is not something that QT is trying to describe. When we say we interact with an event, we are talking about the physical act of seeing, measuring, etc. Science is a definite product with laid out laws and principles, but at the quantum level, QT allows for probabilities. The probability of an event is not at the experimental level, but at the actual physical level. That is, if I try to pinpoint a particle's location to a very specific point in time-space, I cannot do that. I can only give you the best probable location. By it's intrinsic wave nature, the particle can be anywhere in infinite space-time. At the macro level, we see the object where we see it, because it is the highest probability location (alomost equal to one); however, there is a definite probaility that it could be somewhere else altogether. That's why I said that the cat in the box could even drop out of the box by sheer probability. This infinite probability wave is what was being tied to Buddhism in the book adiyEn mentioned. But I agree with Smt Nappinnai. If you can, get the book from the local library rather than buying it, as it deals mostly with Zen Buddhism. adiyEn madhurakavi dAsan TCA Venkatesan http://www.acharya.org --- thirunarayanan parthasarathy iyengar <shyamala45 wrote: > SRIMATHE RAMANUJAYA NAMAHA > APPAN THIRUVADIGALE SARANAM. > > Dear Sri.
