Huge respect to Swami for spreading knowledge and love for both Hindu and Buddhist philosophies and teachings . A wise man will learn something from both , only fools will fight over such philosophies.
@Prashant-ci7vs not everything is right or wrong . There are just different paths for leading a good life . Some may feel connected with the Buddhist philosophy and others with the Vedic philosophy . Many mahapurush have attained liberation in hindu history as well . As you said Buddha wanted us to realise things ourselves , therefore some people may realise the Vedic philosophy better than the Buddhist one and if they are becoming compassionate studying it then what's your problem ? You only are mentioning other paths as wrong and only the Buddha path as right and at the same time saying Buddha wanted us to realise things ourselves . Live and let live .
@Prashant-ci7vs for example if I want to make myself compassionate towards animals , I would look into the teachings of great people who spread animal compassion . And I will find both Buddha and hindu gods doing so . I will learn Rigorous ahinsa towards animals from Jainism , the fact that nagarjuna was killed with kusha grass just because he killed an ant before... I will take this lesson from Buddhism and I will learn that hindu gods always had a vahana as animal and took many births in animal form . I am not a monk or a sanyasi that I will have to strictly follow a path , and so aren't you . I am a laity and I just want maximum compassion to emerge in myself and I am not bound to learn it from just a single philosophy .

@@theunusual4566 Perhaps it needs to be known whether that "implication that the person knows neither" is true. For example, to gain knowledge by using analogy and/or comparison (Upamāna Pramāṇa) of one thing (say, an apple) and another (say, an orange or another apple), it needs to be known: [1] what is known about the apple and to what extent (attributes/traits, functions, relationships with other entities, etc.), [2] what is known about the orange or the other apple and to what extent, [3] what are the means of comparing them, and [4] what are the results of the comparison. Likewise, how is it that you know that the person who differentiates about Buddhism and Advaita, doesn't know either. Shouldn't it first be tested and demonstrated what you know Buddhism and to what extent, and also what you know of Advaita and to what extent, and also that you know of by comparison that there is either no difference or some difference (and also the sameness)? And given that historically there have been argumentative debates (Tarka by application of the tarkaśāstra to defend an inferential standpoint/Siddhānta, or even attack or test another without having one), and there have been influential extant explanatory and literary works as a resultant, is it that all they were ignorant fools with no understanding? Also, without argumentative debates (and trying to differentiate between two things) how do you ensure the testing of own knowledge and understanding, and also the opponent's position, and also the skills to express own position in duress, etc.? Also, what about your statement that "People differentiating between Advaita Vedanta and Buddhism do not understand either". Is it that you suggest that they are same and you have understanding of complete understanding of both (otherwise how to say they are same as a whole/Pūrna, and none of the parts/bhāga are different)? So how about demonstrating your understanding (and with accurate references) that they are same, given that you have already got into the argument by commenting against the people who differentiate between the two?
Now coming to your conclusion that those people do not know either of the two, how about you explain why the Śaṅkarābhāṣyam (extant, explanatory commentary) on the Bhagavad Gita or even the Brahmasūtras discusses (and critiques) Buddhist, Nyaya, Lokāyata/Cārvāka, and even the Vedānta who talk of mixing all paths (like Karma and Jnana together) standpoints? What about Madhusūdana Sarasvatī writing his [i] line-by-line refutations to Nyayamṛta (Dvaita arguments to Advaita by Vyāsatīrtha) in the form of Advaitasiddhi, [ii] the defense of Advaita doctrine against the criticisms of Nyaya in the form of Advaitaratnarakṣā, etc.? Is it that they neither Advaita or the Dvaita or Nyaya scholars knew nothing of their own or their opponents, and were wasting time haggling over potatoes and lemons? What about Raja Janakā arranging for debates in his own court, where Vedic scholars like Gārgī Vāchaknavī and Yājñavalkya used to debate to establish Brahman (metaphysical ontology) and their understanding of it (epistemology)? Is it they were darn totally ignorant about Brahman and even the means to know it? Also, is it that Raja Janaka was also being ignorant and wasteful in just making people argue and fight over something that couldn't be seen or heard? OR is it that he actually learnt by observation of the arguments and inference from observations during the debate? What about the Buddhist Mādhyamaka scholar Bhāviveka vigorously criticizing another scholar Buddhapālita's approach to explaining Nāgārjuna's Madhyamaka standpoint, which was later counter-argued (and defended) by Chandrakīrti? Is it that none of them knew anything of Buddhism or Madhyamaka or even each other's works that they are critiquing and arguing upon?
Great answer by the Swami. One aspect of genomics that is interesting to the the "spiritual" world is how we are all related and how information gets passed on from one generation to the next at a genetic level. So what we are today is a product of many millions of years of evolution in this "universe" as we know it that apparently emerged about 14B years ago post big bang and the first cellular life that emerged on earth 4B yrs ago!

How can u replace electrons with cells? cells are much complex matter composed numerous molecules, whereas electrons are charged particles inside an atom.
Quantum mechanics is based on experimental observation. Any similar thinking without experimental proof shouldn't be mixed up with quantum mechanics just because words are similar.
Then the question will come, why we are trying to understand quantum mechanics? And one more thing, nothing is proved definitely by this double slit experiment.

Yes. It's a typical question that people who try to pose as if they are very curious and have philosophical bent, but are actually too lazy to open even a graduate level text book on quantum mechanics.
I have been a scientist my whole life studied in many years. The double split experiment blew my mind a part then I started studying the scriptures. Anything that has come from west has only been possible through the wonderful scriptures of the east. Thanks you. 😅😅
By the way, quantum mechanics, i reckon, doesn't work for macroscopic [rather supra-atomic] things, at least not in the way it works for such minuscule stuff as photons ...
Double slit experiment is for light and subatomic particles, if you throw something massive like cell it will produce no inference bands, because cell is made up of million atoms and mass trillion time higher than electron or photons. Not getting why he asked this question.
The most fundamental aspect of creation to which material science (physics, maths etc) can reach i.e. spacetime is well described in the most basic of the Hindu philosophy i.e.Nyaya-Vaisheshika. There the subtlest spacial dimension [dik] and time dimension [kal] are considered as material [dravya] along with mind [mana]. These in turn are made up of more fundamental qualities [guna]. These subtle materials interact to produce "material ideas" [bhaba] in emergent fashion like "action" [karma]. This is akin to QM where probability waves collapse to material reality when observed [i.e. by the mind] or reality emerges from interaction/correlation of more fundamental waves in hierarchic fashion. However one should remember that “physical mind” itself is made up of the same material which it plays with so its action/perception will be limited to the same ingredients that it interacts with. So any appearance of material reality is in the mind of the observer. As Swami Vivekananda says, the mind is the ultimate and supreme energy converter which converts unmanifest energy into its myriad manifestation to appear as external reality. So the entire creation from the unmanifest to spacetime to the system of galaxies down to planetary system, living beings and human society is nothing but a hierarchial emergent system of interacting waveforms changing at every instant as manifest time “emerges” unidirectionally. The all pervasive unmanifest quantum field organises (i.e gets different direction) under the impetus of time which it assimilates (similar to prana in vedanta) into energy channels. Then it is the interaction/correlation/arrangement of these which manifests us and our conceivable universe. Its like how strings [information] make a shirt [our universe]. Only when the strings are arranged in a specific way [parallel to each other but not otherwise, nyaya] can the shirt evolve. Also note that the strings don’t have to be in contact with each other but its their relation (fundamentally ''action'' or karma) and relative position that is producing the fabric.(samanya in nyaya) By other specific such arrangement, different shirts can be produced.(vishesha in nyaya). Time is intricately entangled into everything.(samavyaya in nyaya) The two most fundamental building blocks [science] of creation are physics and mathematics, both having their inception at the concept of zero [big bang in physics and number system in maths]. In philosophy, zero [sunyo] means both "infinity" and number zero. The infinitely infinite symmetrical unmanifest [brahma in vedanta] constricts to a point by a imaginary boundary [maya] which is round [parimandala parimana]. For the infinite to become finite, the circular shape is the most appropriate as it is [finitely] infinite symmetrical about its centre. The other platform where science and philosophy are very near is the concept of information, quantum thermodynamics [heat] and entropy all of which are entangled in creation. The Upanishad says "the sun is veritably the life energy or pran " and physics has discovered that the earth was formed from the sun and it is maintaining all vitality here by continuously supplying "low entropy" via sunlight. In philosophical realms, for manifesting reality, the unmanifest first undergoes symmetry breaking into 50 alphabets/sounds [most fundamental information] "inspired" by the creative force [prana, heat] which by permutation/ combination/arrangements in different ways give rise to the reality describable by those alphabets.
To get a glimpse of Vedanta in the language of modern science, especially relativity and quantum mechanics, refer the book: SPACETIME AND THAT BEYOND By A.N.Unnikrishnan.
This is the symptom of an actually wise person. He just confessed politely his limitations. But on the other hand he showed the path how thw answer of the question will be found. And how all these are related to Vedanta.🙏🙏🙏
One can't know & understand everything as there are many different areas to truth that never ends as it's so deep & vast in reality. The more you explore the more you get so where to start, turn, break, balance & stop it's your decision as it's neverending. It's easy to feel lost in the sea of information & imagination combined thus we need to be careful & mindful in life. 🙏
Good that swamyji said,coz the moment any body goes in argument mode especially with scientist, they will be stuck ,recently I was hearing one of the great Advaita teacher expressing that the material and life how does it interconnected? the mystery not known till date by science, but revealed by scripture but scientist doesn't believe the scripture...?
Science is a way to express the cosmic law in different understandable formats for humans, designed by humans. The latest string theory reveals the truth that unified magnetic fields in the universe maintain the equilibrium in its own way .
There is a simple answer to Mr. Ashwin Rao and his question of dwaita and adwaita in cell Biology or genomics. Light behaves both as waves and particle in the slit experiment. Same way there are the stem cells with which a Placenta is made up of. Stem cells can grow up into kidney or a lung or a brain cell or even a bone. All that is needed is the insertion of the genetic program code of the targeted body part. So the stem cell is a cell which can behave in any way you direct it to behave.
Spirituality and science are parallel to each other. Science is the reason for everything thats happening around us and spirituality is the reason for science to happen. So in simple worlds science is a son of the creator.
It's sad that people ask such questions in physics. They ask questions thinking the question is too profound, but these questions are so trivial that even reading the first chapter of any QM book, they would themselves had got the answer. To anyone who has a doubt, just read a paragraph about when a particle can be treated with classical mechanics, and it's trajectory would be completely predictable, and all those observers etc are not at all relevant at all.
Everything is electron proton and neutron.... Elections revolve around Proton and Neutron with the speed of many many thousands of light years... That is in every creature living or non-living... We as human beings are blessed with great consciousness...thus we can explore and coke with amaze with genomics , quantum physics and so on.... I suppose.🙏
- This is exactly what Shankaracharya did. - Shankaracharya looted some metaphysical concepts of Buddhism and rotated them 180 degrees. - Shankaracharya then used those same concepts against Buddhism to defeat several monks in debates claiming he has defeated Buddhism. 🤣😂 - Shankaracharya also claimed that Nirvana/Moksha is Atman and justified the existence of eternal Atman/Brahman. This is clearly explained in Nirvana Shatakam. - Advaita Vedanta has a ground to stand is because Vedanta stole concepts from Buddhism. - But Gautam Buddha’s original teachings are still preserved in the Pali Canon.
Even if you follow Buddhism only whole-heartedly , you won’t be spitting hatred for any philosopher from another sect . You have neither understood Buddhism nor advaita .
Very interesting conversation. Lot of research is going on in this…Swamiji is correct about colonial mindset. Such esteemed researchers are pulled down by so called experts in quantum physics where such things are named under pseudoscience. Western people and scientists are researching our ancient scriptures inundated with such knowledge but Indians especially getting their degrees abroad and considered so called experts in such field call this quackery.
Guys please read Triupra Rahasya and Yoga Vasistha. They have concepts very similar to the quantum concept Schrodinger Cat experiment. Especially Tripura Rahasya guys. I'm not kidding.
lets say, you are walking on the road all alone while no one is observing you, Your conduct would be somewhat carefree. BUT the very moment you suspect someone is watching you, instantaneously your conduct would change from carefree to rigidity...wont it be so?!..i presume this is what electrons are doing and YES living cells would also exhibit the same behavioral pattern like that of electrons when being observed!
@@KnowtoGrow4354 First things first, I am neither a QP and/or a QM scientist. In my humble understanding, at the most basic level all organisms are made up of atoms, right? And any atom consists of electron, right? May it be an electron passing through the double-slit OR an electron present in a living cell, it would presumably change its behavior upon being observed, right? Microcosm constitutes the Macrocosm, right? Such being the case, isn’t there a possibility of a human, made up of living cells which are in turn made up of atoms, exhibit behavioral change when being observed consciously!?
With due respect let me explain the correct and incorrect statements which is made by you, along with clarifications: ### Correct Statements: 1. **Quantum Mechanics and Relationships:** - Carlo Rovelli’s book *Helgoland* discusses how quantum mechanics involves understanding relationships between particles, aligning with the idea of interdependence. - Nagarjuna's concept of emptiness (śūnyatā) and interdependence (pratītyasamutpāda) in Buddhism reflects the interconnected nature of reality, which resonates with some interpretations of quantum mechanics. 2. **Philosophy and Science Integration:** - The idea that ancient philosophical insights can provide a perspective on modern scientific concepts is valid. Philosophy and science can intersect in meaningful ways, offering deeper understanding. 3. **Importance of Independent Thinking:** - The encouragement to explore and experiment based on insights from various philosophical and scientific sources reflects a valuable approach to integrating knowledge. ### Incorrect Statements and Clarifications: 1. **Quantum Mechanics with Living Cells:** - **Incorrect:** "If we replace electrons with living cells in the double-slit experiment, they will behave the same way as electrons based on the presence or absence of the observer." - **Clarification:** While quantum mechanics shows wave-particle duality in particles like electrons, applying this directly to living cells is problematic. Living cells are complex systems with many degrees of freedom and interactions that make their behavior fundamentally different from elementary particles. 2. **Biological Experiments and Observer Intent:** - **Incorrect:** "The outcome of biological experiments is dependent on the intent of the observer, not on controlled experimental conditions." - **Clarification:** In scientific experiments, controlled conditions are crucial for reproducibility and accuracy. While observer effects in quantum mechanics highlight the role of measurement, this does not imply that biological outcomes are dependent on observer intent in the same way. 3. **Quantum Mechanics and Buddhist Philosophy:** - **Incorrect:** "Nagarjuna knew quantum mechanics." - **Clarification:** Nagarjuna did not know quantum mechanics, as it is a modern scientific theory. The comparison is more about parallels in understanding interconnectedness and not direct knowledge or prediction of quantum phenomena. 4. **Genomics and Spirituality:** - **Incorrect:** "Genomics has not been applied or explored in spirituality or Indian Vedic practices." - **Clarification:** While genomics and spirituality have traditionally been distinct fields, there is growing interest in exploring how genetic research might intersect with or inform spiritual practices. This is an area of ongoing research and development. The statements should be approached with care, especially when integrating scientific and philosophical ideas, as each has its own methodologies and frameworks.

Yes. It's a typical question that people who try to pose as if they are very curious and have philosophical bent, but are actually too lazy to open even a graduate level text book on quantum mechanics.
I have been a scientist my whole life studied in many years. The double split experiment blew my mind a part then I started studying the scriptures. Anything that has come from west has only been possible through the wonderful scriptures of the east. Thanks you. 😅😅
By the way, quantum mechanics, i reckon, doesn't work for macroscopic [rather supra-atomic] things, at least not in the way it works for such minuscule stuff as photons ...
Yes
इनको सुनकर लगता है,,,, आप इन्हें सुनते जाएं,, मंत्रमुग्ध हो जाते हैं ऐसा लगता है,, सरलता अद्वितीय है,,
Double slit experiment is for light and subatomic particles, if you throw something massive like cell it will produce no inference bands, because cell is made up of million atoms and mass trillion time higher than electron or photons. Not getting why he asked this question.
Agreed.
Really..n he claims to be studying some bio science..
Haha, yes, that a stupid person in a wrong place.
Swamiji is one of the greatest.
The most fundamental aspect of creation to which material science (physics, maths etc) can reach i.e. spacetime is well described in the most basic of the Hindu philosophy i.e.Nyaya-Vaisheshika. There the subtlest spacial dimension [dik] and time dimension [kal] are considered as material [dravya] along with mind [mana]. These in turn are made up of more fundamental qualities [guna]. These subtle materials interact to produce "material ideas" [bhaba] in emergent fashion like "action" [karma]. This is akin to QM where probability waves collapse to material reality when observed [i.e. by the mind] or reality emerges from interaction/correlation of more fundamental waves in hierarchic fashion. However one should remember that “physical mind” itself is made up of the same material which it plays with so its action/perception will be limited to the same ingredients that it interacts with. So any appearance of material reality is in the mind of the observer. As Swami Vivekananda says, the mind is the ultimate and supreme energy converter which converts unmanifest energy into its myriad manifestation to appear as external reality. So the entire creation from the unmanifest to spacetime to the system of galaxies down to planetary system, living beings and human society is nothing but a hierarchial emergent system of interacting waveforms changing at every instant as manifest time “emerges”
unidirectionally.
The all pervasive unmanifest quantum field organises (i.e gets different direction) under the impetus of time which it assimilates (similar to prana in vedanta) into energy channels. Then it is the interaction/correlation/arrangement of these which manifests us and our conceivable universe. Its like how strings [information] make a shirt [our universe]. Only when the strings are arranged in a specific way [parallel to each other but not otherwise, nyaya] can the shirt evolve. Also note that the strings don’t have to be in contact with each other but its their relation (fundamentally ''action'' or karma) and relative position that is producing the fabric.(samanya in nyaya) By other specific such arrangement, different shirts can be produced.(vishesha in nyaya). Time is intricately entangled into everything.(samavyaya in nyaya)
The two most fundamental building blocks [science] of creation are physics and mathematics, both having their inception at the concept of zero [big bang in physics and number system in maths]. In philosophy, zero [sunyo] means both "infinity" and number zero. The infinitely infinite symmetrical unmanifest [brahma in vedanta] constricts to a point by a imaginary boundary [maya] which is round [parimandala parimana]. For the infinite to become finite, the circular shape is the most appropriate as it is [finitely] infinite symmetrical about its centre.
The other platform where science and philosophy are very near is the concept of information, quantum thermodynamics [heat] and entropy all of which are entangled in creation. The Upanishad says "the sun is veritably the life energy or pran " and physics has discovered that the earth was formed from the sun and it is maintaining all vitality here by continuously supplying "low entropy" via sunlight. In philosophical realms, for manifesting reality, the unmanifest first undergoes symmetry breaking into 50 alphabets/sounds [most fundamental information] "inspired" by the creative force [prana, heat] which by permutation/ combination/arrangements in different ways give rise to the reality describable by those alphabets.
You believe in such lies??
To get a glimpse of Vedanta in the language of modern science, especially relativity and quantum mechanics, refer the book:
SPACETIME AND THAT BEYOND By A.N.Unnikrishnan.
This swamiji is a Hindu monk
This is the symptom of an actually wise person. He just confessed politely his limitations. But on the other hand he showed the path how thw answer of the question will be found. And how all these are related to Vedanta.🙏🙏🙏
One can't know & understand everything as there are many different areas to truth that never ends as it's so deep & vast in reality. The more you explore the more you get so where to start, turn, break, balance & stop it's your decision as it's neverending.
It's easy to feel lost in the sea of information & imagination combined thus we need to be careful & mindful in life. 🙏
And what's the point of asking that genomics question?
Good that swamyji said,coz the moment any body goes in argument mode especially with scientist, they will be stuck ,recently I was hearing one of the great Advaita teacher expressing that the material and life how does it interconnected? the mystery not known till date by science, but revealed by scripture but scientist doesn't believe the scripture...?
What is life and what is material? Define it.
OBSERVE THE OBSERVER IS THE ULTIMATE ...
The observer is the observed. -Krishnamurti.
Science is a way to express the cosmic law in different understandable formats for humans, designed by humans. The latest string theory reveals the truth that unified magnetic fields in the universe maintain the equilibrium in its own way .
Truly genius guruji
They did not know, we don't know, and who knows if we ever will know. That is all we can say now.

There is a simple answer to Mr. Ashwin Rao and his question of dwaita and adwaita in cell Biology or genomics. Light behaves both as waves and particle in the slit experiment. Same way there are the stem cells with which a Placenta is made up of. Stem cells can grow up into kidney or a lung or a brain cell or even a bone. All that is needed is the insertion of the genetic program code of the targeted body part. So the stem cell is a cell which can behave in any way you direct it to behave.
yeah its simple
Spirituality and science are parallel to each other. Science is the reason for everything thats happening around us and spirituality is the reason for science to happen. So in simple worlds science is a son of the creator.

What a priviledge to listen to swamiji
Correct.
Namaste! Please suggest a good English version of Mulamadhyamakakarika.
Good, but it's all from Vedas only, rt?
It's sad that people ask such questions in physics. They ask questions thinking the question is too profound, but these questions are so trivial that even reading the first chapter of any QM book, they would themselves had got the answer.
To anyone who has a doubt, just read a paragraph about when a particle can be treated with classical mechanics, and it's trajectory would be completely predictable, and all those observers etc are not at all relevant at all.
It's 2am and I'm certainly not sleeping tonight with that question in my mind !! 😓

He is hindu monk not Buddhist monk.
Yes
- This is exactly what Shankaracharya did.
- Shankaracharya looted some metaphysical concepts of Buddhism and rotated them 180 degrees.
- Shankaracharya then used those same concepts against Buddhism to defeat several monks in debates claiming he has defeated Buddhism. 🤣😂
- Shankaracharya also claimed that Nirvana/Moksha is Atman and justified the existence of eternal Atman/Brahman. This is clearly explained in Nirvana Shatakam.
- Advaita Vedanta has a ground to stand is because Vedanta stole concepts from Buddhism.
- But Gautam Buddha’s original teachings are still preserved in the Pali Canon.
Grow up kid it's from Upanishads not from Buddhism 😂

Doesn't Buddhism deny atman, existence of soul? Gautam Buddha himself was a student of dharmic traditions.
Very interesting conversation. Lot of research is going on in this…Swamiji is correct about colonial mindset. Such esteemed researchers are pulled down by so called experts in quantum physics where such things are named under pseudoscience. Western people and scientists are researching our ancient scriptures inundated with such knowledge but Indians especially getting their degrees abroad and considered so called experts in such field call this quackery.
Guys please read Triupra Rahasya and Yoga Vasistha. They have concepts very similar to the quantum concept Schrodinger Cat experiment. Especially Tripura Rahasya guys. I'm not kidding.

lets say, you are walking on the road all alone while no one is observing you, Your conduct would be somewhat carefree. BUT the very moment you suspect someone is watching you, instantaneously your conduct would change from carefree to rigidity...wont it be so?!..i presume this is what electrons are doing and YES living cells would also exhibit the same behavioral pattern like that of electrons when being observed!
Kindly elucidate a little more
@@KnowtoGrow4354 First things first, I am neither a QP and/or a QM scientist. In my humble understanding, at the most basic level all organisms are made up of atoms, right? And any atom consists of electron, right? May it be an electron passing through the double-slit OR an electron present in a living cell, it would presumably change its behavior upon being observed, right? Microcosm constitutes the Macrocosm, right? Such being the case, isn’t there a possibility of a human, made up of living cells which are in turn made up of atoms, exhibit behavioral change when being observed consciously!?

Einstein famously rejected quantum mechanics saying that God does not play with dice.
Then He applied very basics of the quantum mechanics to explain photo electric effect 😊
Heisenberg replied Don't teach God how to throw dice...Heisenberg was nearer to truth...
Einstein didn't understand an iota of Quantum Mechanics
Einstein also stole the fundamental research of Santendranath Bose and proposed this as his own theory about duality of light. Got a Nobel prize also.

With due respect let me explain the correct and incorrect statements which is made by you, along with clarifications:
### Correct Statements:
1. **Quantum Mechanics and Relationships:**
- Carlo Rovelli’s book *Helgoland* discusses how quantum mechanics involves understanding relationships between particles, aligning with the idea of interdependence.
- Nagarjuna's concept of emptiness (śūnyatā) and interdependence (pratītyasamutpāda) in Buddhism reflects the interconnected nature of reality, which resonates with some interpretations of quantum mechanics.
2. **Philosophy and Science Integration:**
- The idea that ancient philosophical insights can provide a perspective on modern scientific concepts is valid. Philosophy and science can intersect in meaningful ways, offering deeper understanding.
3. **Importance of Independent Thinking:**
- The encouragement to explore and experiment based on insights from various philosophical and scientific sources reflects a valuable approach to integrating knowledge.
### Incorrect Statements and Clarifications:
1. **Quantum Mechanics with Living Cells:**
- **Incorrect:** "If we replace electrons with living cells in the double-slit experiment, they will behave the same way as electrons based on the presence or absence of the observer."
- **Clarification:** While quantum mechanics shows wave-particle duality in particles like electrons, applying this directly to living cells is problematic. Living cells are complex systems with many degrees of freedom and interactions that make their behavior fundamentally different from elementary particles.
2. **Biological Experiments and Observer Intent:**
- **Incorrect:** "The outcome of biological experiments is dependent on the intent of the observer, not on controlled experimental conditions."
- **Clarification:** In scientific experiments, controlled conditions are crucial for reproducibility and accuracy. While observer effects in quantum mechanics highlight the role of measurement, this does not imply that biological outcomes are dependent on observer intent in the same way.
3. **Quantum Mechanics and Buddhist Philosophy:**
- **Incorrect:** "Nagarjuna knew quantum mechanics."
- **Clarification:** Nagarjuna did not know quantum mechanics, as it is a modern scientific theory. The comparison is more about parallels in understanding interconnectedness and not direct knowledge or prediction of quantum phenomena.
4. **Genomics and Spirituality:**
- **Incorrect:** "Genomics has not been applied or explored in spirituality or Indian Vedic practices."
- **Clarification:** While genomics and spirituality have traditionally been distinct fields, there is growing interest in exploring how genetic research might intersect with or inform spiritual practices. This is an area of ongoing research and development.
The statements should be approached with care, especially when integrating scientific and philosophical ideas, as each has its own methodologies and frameworks.

Sad. Either you haven't really understood the Swamiji's response to the question or you are already prejudiced and have therefore taken on an aggressive stance. By the way, I'm not Indian or Hindu and nor do I follow any religious doctrine, but I give credit where it is due and this Swami has brought some hope to the world via his talks and presence on the net. I hope you find peace.
