I like to think that someone will trace how the deepest thinking of India made its way to Greece and from there to the philosophy of our times

We are not only observers. We are participators. In some strange sense this is aparticipatory universe.

No space, no time, no gravity, no electromagnetism, no particles. Nothing. We are back where Plato, Aristotle and Parmenides struggled with the great questions: How Come the Universe, How Come Us, How Come Anything? But happily also we have around the answer to these questions. That's us.

If you haven't found something strange during the day, it hasn't been much of a day.

Surely where there's smoke there's fire? No, where there's so much smoke there's smoke.

The universe gives birth to consciousness, and consciousness gives meaning to the universe.

Behind it all is surely an idea so simple, so beautiful, that when we grasp it - in a decade, a century, or a millennium - we will all say to each other, how could it have been otherwise? How could we have been so stupid?
