RIVER OF A THOUSAND TALES:
Encounters with Spirit, Reflections From Science
by Rao Kolluru |
|
|
|
|
|
You are about to embark on a journey to the east end to the
west, outward and inward, and beyond. Join the pilgrim as he
encounters a sage by the sacred river in the Himalayas and
finds enlightenment in the sage’s parables and vignettes.
These tales, at once simple, revealing and inspiring, unveil
mind and matter, nature and nurture, mindfulness and
meditation, duties and rewards, life and death, the individual
and the universal, the finite and the infinite.
The author reflects on these tales in the context of
environmental biology, public health, astrophysics, and
related disciplines, and offers practical guidance for
everything from business to wellness, all the while separating
science from nonsense with irreverent humor. |
