"athato brahma jigyasa"

Translation: Now, therefore, one should inquire into the nature of Brahman, the Absolute Truth, or God.

- Vedanta Sutra 1.1.1

 

"This life of yours which you are living is not merely a piece of this entire existence, but in a certain sense the "whole"; only this whole is not so constituted that it can be surveyed in one single glance. This, as we know, is what the Brahmins express in that sacred, mystic formula which is yet really so simple and so clear: tat tvam asi, this is you."

- E. Schordinger

 

"Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind."

- A. Einstein

 

"Philosophy without Religion is speculation and Religion without the philosophy becomes fanaticism."

-Srila Prabhupada

 

"When the scientist, philosopher, and medical man will get the opportunity to study systematically what is God, what are His energies, what is my relationship, how to approach Him, then only there will be paradise."

-Srila Prabhupada

 

 

Forum for Vedanta & Science (FVS) is a body of student's staying in the campus of Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur (http://www.iitkgp.ac.in). It is working under the expert guidance of Dr. T. D. Singh (http://www.binstitute.org/director/index.html) who is the International Director of Bhaktivedanta Institute (BI) (http://www.binstitute.org) since 1974. BI is a not-for-profit organization and working for the synthesis of science and spirituality for the benefit of humanity.
