Sinossi

Discover the similarities and striking beauty in the writings and sayings from science and the teachings of Buddhism.

Provocative, stimulating, and insightful, Einstein and Buddha points to the far-reaching and profound parallels between Western scientific thought and Eastern religion. These remarkably similar disciplines touch on the essential nature of energy and matter, the relationship between subject and object, and the limits of language in understanding and describing reality. The shared understandings communicate a deep common ground on both the nature of the universe and our place in it.

embrace all living creatures and
the whole of nature in its beauty"

beings"
- Dalai Lama

Einstein:
"The principle of science is the
following: The test of all knowledge
is experiment. Experiment is the sole
judge of scientific truth"

experimentalism"

consciousness"
