There are many attempts to explain the existence of the universe. The observable universe around us is filled with unknowns and numerous unexplainable phenomena, let alone the unobservable universe. Every theory proposed is just trying to explain the existence of the observable universe around us, ignoring the fact that it is potentially possible there is an invisible universe that reveals itself as we find newer ways to observe it.

There are many attempts to explain the existence of the universe. The observable universe around us is filled with unknowns and numerous unexplainable phenomena, let alone the unobservable universe. Every theory proposed is just trying to explain the existence of the observable universe around us, ignoring the fact that it is potentially possible there is an invisible universe that reveals itself as we find newer ways to observe it. We need to be able to abstract this universe as we observe it to be just a representation of something else underneath that is projected as this world around us by our descriptive thoughts. Only then can we find an explanation that is inclusive of everything that the universe is.
The best way to explain this algorithm is to use the computers that we have created and the AI algorithms that we are trying to write. This was my primary driver to understand the Sanskrit literature and to debug the working of the universe. The underlying curiosity to understand why and how the AI we write does not even seem to be a “fake imitation” of the working of the universe around us.
In this book, I explain the algorithms proposed in the Sanskrit literature for the working of this reality around us. I also compare these concepts to what we have currently present in computers and explain how they differ from what is explained in these books and why what we have in computers is insufficient to create the AI that we want to create.
Empirical reality has been the focus of most scientific studies. But, humans have always been curious about how awareness, consciousness, sub-consciousness, or how the mind works. How are thoughts formed? Am I the mind? Is the brain responsible for consciousness? Are thoughts consciousness? Are there sub-conscious thoughts? Is the observable universe the truth? Is there a truth beyond reality? What is the soul?
If it is not about consciousness,
Empirical reality has been the focus of most scientific studies. But, humans have always been curious about how awareness, consciousness, sub-consciousness, or how the mind works. How are thoughts formed? Am I the mind? Is the brain responsible for consciousness? Are thoughts consciousness? Are there sub-conscious thoughts? Is the observable universe the truth? Is there a truth beyond reality? What is the soul?
If it is not about consciousness, the next curiosity has been about space, time and matter. Is space finite or infinite? If space is expanding, where is it expanding into? What is time? Are there extra dimensions to space? Is time the 4th dimension? How many dimensions are present? How does space and time relate to consciousness? If consciousness was not present, would there be space and time?
Surya Siddanta, the ancient sanskrit literature, when translated in the context of "emergence of reality", answers just these questions. The concepts presented are surprisingly different and highly thought provoking, making us question our own science which we hold as undisputable. The Surya Siddanta describes the various steps involved the formation of reality, as it traverses from that incomprehensible, unmanifested qualityless truth to the formation of an Individual. This book explores the ideas, the principles and concepts presented in Surya Siddanta, and explains the steps presented with equivalent examples as seen in technologies created by us.
The book is a culmination of the author’s efforts to translate ancient works of literature such as the Upanishads, Bhagavad Gita, sthotrams, mantras and ashtakams in a different context.

The book is a culmination of the author’s efforts to translate ancient works of literature such as the Upanishads, Bhagavad Gita, sthotrams, mantras and ashtakams in a different context. The standard translations of these works do not match his understanding of these verses and so he has based his work on word-to-word transliteration and converting these transliterations into semantically correct sentences. Further, he has changed word transliterations to have contextual meaning as opposed to using just a globally attributed meaning. For example, readers will be pleasantly surprised to read his translation and interpretation of the extremely powerful Gayatri Mantra.
The first thread of continuity that emerged for him when studying the various works of literature was related to Shiva. Following the thread of the various tantras, sthotrams and mantras that were attributed to Shiva, it emerged that Shiva was not really the God that he was taught to believe, but in fact something totally and completely different. The concept of Shiva is tied very deeply to the existence of the environment of reality around us. The book follows the thread in these works of literature to find the path to understanding this environment of reality, to arrive at the answer for the question “What is Shiva?” and to lay down the implications, if what is claimed in these works of literature is true.
Schrödinger has said "The world is given to me only once, not one existing and one perceived. Subject and object are only one.".
The Kena Upanishad says "That which the mind cannot think, but that which is the mind, know that to be the ultimate truth and not that which you have imagined".

The Isha Upanishad has said "Intentions persisted cause actions, Actions persisted cause intentions. Always, this is the cause of the become and becoming".
Is reality and truth the same? What if we can look beyond this reality and start to seek the truth? What will we find? Is this mind and senses enough to know it?
“If only pictures and words could capture the beauty of the world around us!!” Vijay could have easily dismissed it with that philosophical view. Yet that simple often repeated sentence had got him thinking. Once the train of thoughts had started he could not stop it. He had thought about how in spite of all the technological advancements the very simple act of “recreating a moment” was still not possible by mankind. It was strange that we lived in a world where companies were running behind “creating NEW artificially induced virtual reality experience” but no one could record “a real-life experience” and replay it in a virtual reality environment with exactly the same precision and experience.
Read the fictional novel of what could be a path followed by one person attempting to search out the truth.
