It's interesting that String Theory (that's funny, Lather) pops up in imaginations of the heavens, the realms, the cosmology. And how different they are. (I didn't know Lather cited Flatland, and again, that's amusing because I have also used that illustration for friends describing higher dimensions.)
I feel like dropping a name here. A friend of mine. He'd been working on a physics book for a few years. We are birds of a feather, in our little cult of Indian schooling.
Then the book came out, and damn if it wasn't excellent. It's about the glimpses of "spiritual" realms that can be "accessed" or "imagined" from the higher dims and nature of Super String Theory. It's extensively researched and cross referenced between physical and religious writings.
Now here's the part that's totally Paul: I can't remember the name of the book.....
I know none of the old-timers here are surprised. I've known and studied and "argued" with this friend (he's very nice) for 28 years, and I can't remember his Title.
He sent me a copy of the book, inscribed, but I lent it to a mathematician, and haven't gotten it back. I guess you're not sposed to lend inscribed inspired books. But; what the hey. |
