Vedic Physics: Scientific Origin of Hinduism

The Rgveda is the first book of humankind and the most sacred scripture of Hinduism. It also happens to be the most ill- understood book of our times. Despite the extensive study by academic and religious scholars, the purpose and meaning of the Rgveda and many ancient Hindu scriptures remain unclear. In this path breaking book, the discovery of the Rgveda as a book of ancient cosmology is described, and related to the seals of ancient Indus Valley Civilization, thereby challenging our perception of humanity.

The Vedas have always been lauded as containing the secrets of cosmogenesis. Raja Roy in his remarkable book shows how this is true not only from the yogic vision but according to the latest insights of modern physics. The book takes the reader on a vast panoramic journey through the universe of matter, mind and human history as well."

Roy presents a new framework for the understanding of the Vedic hymns from the point of view of physics and then he draws parallels with recent theories on the nature of the universe. We celebrate the new path he has hewn through the bush of old scholarship.
