The word “Gita” means “song” in Sanskrit, and “Bhagavad” is an adjective derived from “Bhagavan,” which translates to “God” or “the Divine.” Thus, the Bhagavad Gita can be translated as the “Divine Song” or the “Song of God.”
Resource person Dr. Mohinder Pratap Singh, a cardiologist by profession oriented staff members about what makes the Bhagavad Gita even more intriguing, is its profound impact on a diverse array of brilliant minds from various scientific disciplines, including quantum physics, philosophy, and psychology. The Bhagavad Gita’s legacy has been in the minds of many visionary Physicists Albert Einstein, Robert Oppenheimer, Erwin Schrödinger, Werner Heisenberg to name a few.
The ancient wisdom found within the Bhagavad Gita provided these scientists with profound insights and a deeper understanding of the universe’s complexities. While they approached their scientific work through rigorous methodologies and mathematical formulations, their encounters with the Gita sparked contemplation on the nature of reality, consciousness and the human condition.
Dr. Satish Ahujaa Principal Director, DAVIM also shared his views on various aspects of life and concluded that for those who have conquered the mind and their karma – it is their friend but for those who have failed to do so their mind works like an enemy so let’s all try to conquer our mind through self-realization, self-exploration and by managing The Self.
He appreciated the efforts of FDP Convener / Vice Principal Dr. Ritu Gandhi Arora and its team members Dr. Ashima, Dr. Parul Nagi, Dr. Shobha Bhatia, Ms. Pooja Gour and Dr. Kavita for organizing such a thoughtful session. Session ended with a thanks note to all the faculty members for their patience listening and participation.
