Quantum physics: From Planck to Sadhguru Many are dismissive of the supposed parallels between quantum physics and ancient Asian thought, but they miss the point by Jan Krikke February 25, 2020 ---- Virtually all new quantum theories, most unproven, are extrapolations of earlier theories: quantum gravity, black holes, God particles, M-theory, dark energy, multiverse, and various iterations of string theory. --- Today, much of quantum theory resembles a mathematical parlor game perpetuated by eye-catching headlines in the mainstream media and popular science magazines. One day scientists claim to have found evidence of black holes, later we are told unequivocally that black holes do not exist. ---- Quantum physicists described the subatomic world mathematically, but scientists found it virtually impossible to explain this invisible world in everyday language. Asian sages had addressed this very problem, which explains their appeal to the early quantum physicists. --- Many of today’s physicists are dismissive of the supposed parallels between quantum physics and ancient Asian thought. They may rightly claim that Asian thinkers did not develop the scientific notion of proof and did not carry the empirical method far enough to develop hard science, but that misses the point. --- https://asiatimes.com/2020/02/quantum-physics-from-planck-to-sadhguru/ ====
