Consciousness The Missing Link

In my search for the secret of life, I ended up with atoms and electrons, which have no life at all. Somewhere along the line, life has run out through my fingers. So, in my old age, I am now retracing my steps.

What is consciousness? How do physical processes in the brain give rise to the self-aware mind and to feelings as profoundly varied as love or hate, aesthetic pleasure or spiritual yearning? Consciousness is perhaps the most puzzling problem we humans face in trying to understand ourselves.

In this thought-provoking book, scientists of the Bhaktivedanta institute examine key underlying concepts of the modern life sciences in light of Indias age-old Vedic knowledge offering an enlightening view of consciousness through the lenses of science and philosophy.
