Book Description
Could anyone imagine that ancient texts stated the age of the solar system and the universe to within 0.1% of the modern scientific values? Neither could these scientists, before reading this book: “It is hard to find an author who is expert in widely separated branches of science, but Chhabra and O'Rourke have dexterously sewn together state-of-the-art discoveries in five fields: cosmology, astrophysics, geology, paleontology, and embryology.” – ¬Prof. S. Ghosh, Columbia University “This book illustrates how the Puranas provide both a microscopic and telescopic view of the physical world from which modern science can learn and benefit.” – Prof. R. Buyya, University of Melbourne “The authors bury skeptics under an avalanche of well-researched facts. A real tour-de-force of scientific expertise.” – Prof. K. Pahan, Rush University “You have synthesized challenging material from at least four different fields into a thought provoking and compelling vindication of the Puranic cosmo-chronological order.” – A Saha, Smithsonian Museum of American History

Genesis and the Big Bang Theory
Author: Gerald Schroeder
Publisher: Bantam
ISBN: 9780553354133
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 228
Book Description
A ground-breaking book that takes on skeptics from both sides of the cosmological debate, arguing that science and the Bible are not at odds concerning the origin of the universe. The culmination of a physicist's thirty-five-year journey from MIT to Jerusalem, Genesis and the Big Bang presents a compelling argument that the events of the billions of years that cosmologists say followed the Big Bang and those of the first six days described in Genesis are, in fact, one and the same—identical realities described in vastly different terms. In engaging, accessible language, Dr. Schroeder reconciles the observable facts of science with the very essence of Western religion: the biblical account of Creation. Carefully reviewing and interpreting accepted scientific principles, analogous passages of Scripture, and biblical scholarship, Dr. Schroeder arrives at a conclusion so lucid that one wonders why it has taken this long in coming. The result for the reader—whether believer or skeptic, Jewish or Christian—is a totally fresh understanding of the key events in the life of the universe.

The Seven Sages
Author: Patricia Anne Dye
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 1475976755
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 481
Book Description
Many world legends suggest that at any given time, seven sages walk the Earth, tasked with the responsibility to anchor wisdom on behalf of humanity. Each one stands as the personification of a different rung of human consciousness. Together, they represent humanity's innate ability to save itself-or doom itself. - Earthwhisperer knows the secrets of the Earth, its pleasures, and its pains. - Lila understands the nature and workings of sacred pleasure. - Solomon has learned how to wield both moral and ethical power. - Philomel has captured the art of immaculate loving and heartfelt joy. - Dattatreya lives out his version of crazy wisdom with his innovative family. - Marianina is fey, with a vast and accurate perspective on the human soul and its cosmic context. - Horus is a human sun, the indicator of human destiny, well above normal human consciousness. At this time, the sages have the profound challenge to help humanity reclaim balance, compassion, and hope-when these qualities seem lost forever. Through a whirling cascade of shifts in perception, can the sages inspire each person to embrace his or her unique brand of wisdom in time?

From the Beginning of Time
Author: Ganesh Swaminathan
Publisher: Notion Press
ISBN: 1648507328
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 335
Book Description
The Puranas, as suggested by their name, describe events deep in the earth’s past. Finding a complete cosmology in the ancient Puranic texts that is mostly aligned to the view of cutting-edge science is almost incredible. This book attempts to do so – through an exploratory analysis. The narrative is pieced together by exploring familiar stories from the Puranas in great depth. In the well-known story of the Descent of Ganga, the extra-terrestrial origin of Earth’s waters has been described in amazing detail. The story of the birth of the Sun God Martanda bears a striking resemblance to the origin of the sun. The Churning of the Milk Ocean recounts the re-appearance of the Moon. The book delves into many such stories along with external evidence to come up with a compelling chronicle of our Universe. The book shows the Puranic texts in a fascinating new light. It also serves as a primer to the general interest reader by tackling some of the questions that modern science is grappling with in its study of the cosmos.
