Some of the pioneers of quantum physics were either true mystics themselves or supported mysticism. Among them were Heisenberg, Schroedinger, de Broglie, Jeans, Planck, and Pauli. Albert Einstein, who was not a mystic, said “…most beautiful and profound emotion we can experience is the sensation of the mystical. It is the sower of all true science. To know that what is impenetrable to us really exists, manifesting itself as the highest wisdom and most radiant beauty – which our dull faculties can comprehend only in their primitive form – this knowledge, this feeling is at the center of all religion.”
Hi Ron,
Great quote! I’m a big fan of all those you’ve listed, but the Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle is one of my favorite concepts to ponder…thanks for dropping by…
Uncertainty seems to be the only thing certain in this life. I forgot to mention Arthur Eddington, the eminent British physicist who was a Quaker mystic. Ironically, the person who introduced me to mysticism was Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar, when we met at the University of Chicago’s Yerkes Observatory. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in physics in 1983; he would have received it decades earlier were it not for Eddington’s opposition to Chandra’s theory on the formation of White Dwarfs. While mystics might agree spiritually, they may not do so rationally.
Hi Ron,
Well there is nothing rational about spiritual mysticism…
Wow. More than a month to see your reply. I’m slipping in my old age.
Well there is nothing rational about spiritual mysticism… That’s true…it is suprarational (where have I seen that before?
Hi Ron,
My wordpress comments seem to have a glitch, so you’re probably not receiving updates on my replies…will investigate further…
Great plug above…;)
