BELIEFS OF A REASONING MIND

About the Book

The articles in this book are not thematically sequential but a record of thoughts that came from day to day. They are, however, scattered around the core of religion and rationality. You may find a few spots concerned with humanism and science. Some thoughts are short and some spilling over to more than a page or two. It is more in the format of a diary than a detailed discussion on one theme. They represent a freethinking. Many may disagree with them, but that is what constitutes variety in thought.

About the Author

DR. V V RAMPAL, who was trained as a scientist and with a PhD in nonlinear optics from Southampton University, got interested in spirituality after a scientific career of more than thirty years. Fascinated with the conflict between science and faith, he studied the religious literature of most religions of the world for fifteen years and expressed his thoughts in three books concerned with beliefs, rationality, and scientific approach to discovery of truth. This book is another attempt to convey the thoughts in more generalized terms emphasizing the humanistic approach to living with universal values of ethics and morality.
