Eventually this will all be taught to grade-schoolers and everyone will know the truth. Science and religion are talking about the same things in different ways. One observational, and one symbolic and mythological. Both convene when you strip away the false fragmentations and see the unity of the universe as one energy, rather than holding to the old paradigm of atoms and division as the ultimate reality.
@paparikh, He said time is a 'MENTAL' structure, He's right, Time is a mode of perception, past is in the memory, future is present + past. Maya IS illusion, Maya is the phenomenal world known through the senses that is taken to be dualistic.
With the two lenses of space-time, the variegated universe (that we see today) is made possible. Time is as real as space, and not a mental construct.
@paparikh, 1) Time-space-matter are mental categories in so far as their reality depends upon your cognition of it, The real world you postulate is only as real as your experience of it. Am I wrong?
The real world would still be objectifiable to someone else even if you don't experience it, that is why the world is "transactionally real". Sky is blue even if im blind.
Swami Dayananda ji of Arsha Vidya Gurukulam says "You see the world because it is, and a dream is because you see it. "
One cannot mix orders of realities. From Paramarthikam this universe is a projection, but while in this universe, you share the same reality as the objects
2) mAyA can't be an illusion. An illusion is only something which depends upon the objective reality for its substratum, and provides us a subjective reality.
The rope we mistake to be a snake in twilight, is an illusion. The reality of the illusory snake depends upon the objective rope.
The objective reality we see in the world is a projection of mAyA. It is not an illusion from the standpoint of our objective reality, but shares the same order.
@paparikh, 2) Okay, I think I know what you mean, the term illusion is being used too loosely. Illusion in Vedanta is equivalent to ignorance of 'the real' which is beyond the sense perceived reality. The objective phenomenal world is real from the perspective of the individual who identifies themselves with the mind/body construct, not the self realised Jnani. You seem to know a fair bit, so I welcome any corrections.
Correct, its is a matter of realities. Vedanta speaks of paramArthikam- existence, consciousness, limitlessness... this world of names and forms is a projection, but you as an individual exist as a projection in this projected world too, and thus share the same order of reality
Thank you for your faith, I am a drop of water reflecting the sunlight that is Swami Dayananda Saraswati of Arsha Vidya Gurukulam (you can find his videos on youtube :) )
I think it is safe to say that vedanta, quantum theory and those interested in the philosophical consequences of QT - all three would be better off without utter bunk such as this talk.
OTOH, what is to be expected by someone who by his own admission has no particular clue either on QT or on vedanta ? Perhaps that he should be wise enough to avoid giving talks on them.
I partly agree, though I do give him credit for trying to reconcile the two subjects, there were a few (very few ) mistakes he made in explaining vedAnta. I believe vedAnta should only be taught publicly when one gets it right :)
Science and Religion are only different ways to try to reach God's mind and to try to understand who we are... It is fascinating how much Vedanta reaches our current Science more and more.
If this is true it should have a scientific reason God would not create a universe that we could not understand. Could it be that light has symmetry that forms the broken symmetry of spacetime?
In my video The Paradox of Schrodingers Cat an artist view it is Time that is the Hidden Variable. This would give us the universal beauty and geometry that we see.
@nickharvey7 "God would not create a universe that we could not understand". Could God create a universe that we COULD understand? Can we, as a part of the universe, step outside it and comprehend the whole? For that matter, can God, being supposedly umlimited, understand Himself?
And Brahman is not a material entity which can be seen!. It is the absolute objective truth which presupposes all knowledge and can never be sensed! Science can never be proved or disproved by religion and vice versa! Just keep your faith and seek the truth in your way . Atleast We should never be part of spreading false knowledge and hope!
I don't want to offend anyone but the kid went to an extent saying that the discovery of higgs boson might lead to tear in space and we can see Brahman! Really? lol! These kind of things may be fascinating for idiots who doesn't know either about science or philosophy! The moment you believe in Vedanta the very nature of space and time falls apart let alone quantum mechanics and theory of relativity! If everyhting is Maya, who cares about particles?
I don't understand why there is a need to compare scientific principles with vedantic philosophy! I do understand that eastern philosophy is highly rich and has been largely ignored and there is a possibility that this deductive approach may be better than inductive approach of science!
But why to compare things when we know it is wrong and spread false knowledge!
@chickenflu4 Hi Chickenflu... i understand what your saying and agree with you about there being a dissolution of any conceptual time/space existence when u start to believe in Vedanta. It is in a way meaningless to try and incorporate the science into Vedanta... but i think the boy was just merely saying that modern science and eastern philosophy are not in conflict as once thought... and science is just another method. Where science ultimately seems to fall into a rut, religion may pick it up
Wow, excellent presentation - you have become quite the fine young man. You turned a complex topic into something simpler - very well presented and interesting.
Namaste - It is nice that all this is seen - but lets get fully immersed in the practices so rather than standing outside of the Yantra looking in through the waves of Shakti --- in Realization 0-ne is found as the Bindu Stilled Point Brahman That which IS 0... That from which all emerges from and returns to. Allow the mind to still... Allow Shakti
to Still into Brahman... Now Sushant back to the practices.... OM Shanti
What the world needs is more physics PhDs who have taken diksha mantras in a bona fide parampara :)

Actually, the more I am seeing this video, the more things I find inconsistent in his explanation of vedAnta
Time is not a "made up" structure, nor is mAyA "an illusion"... this terminology is very misleading and would throw off many a vedAnta seekers

1) Time is called kAla, it is a very concrete entity even in our scriptures.
quote shankarA's dakshinAmurti stotram: mAyA kalpita desha kAla kalana vaichitra chitri krtam.
With the two lenses of space-time, the variegated universe (that we see today) is made possible. Time is as real as space, and not a mental construct.
