Parallel Worlds – Parallels between modern Cosmology and Oriental Philosophy

Journal Title: Advance Research Journal of Multidisciplinary Discoveries - Year 2017, Vol 19, Issue 19

Abstract

Similarities between the modern concept of a Multiverse and ancient Eastern philosophies is explored. It is about forty years since Gary Zukav in The Dancing Wu Li Masters, and especially Fritjof Capra in The Tao of Physics showed the similarities between modern physics and ancient Eastern philosophies, especially Buddhism. Since then great strides have been made in particle physics and cosmology. But these very strides, especially in cosmology, have brought back the old conflict between science and Western religion. The new concepts that are foreign to the Western religion are the concepts of Multiverse, aka Multiple Universes or Parallel Worlds, and the birth of the Universe from Nothing (Vacuum) by quantum fluctuations (randomness, by chance). These two concepts go against the basic tenants of Western religion favouring a unique Universe. In this article we show that there is no such conflict between these concepts of modern cosmology and ancient eastern philosophies and religion.
