Modern physicists and Eastern mystics seem strange bedfellows, but Dr. Fritjof Capra, who lectures and researches in particle physics at Lawrence Livermore Laboratories in California, has detected what he believes are very powerful parallels between their world views. In this interview with Jocelyn Ryder-Smith, Dr. Capra discusses some of the ideas he originally put forward in his worldwide-bestseller book, "The Tao of Physics."
He claims there are 2 basic themes which run through both modern science and mystical traditions:
the fundamental unity and interdependence of all phonomena, and
the intrinsically dynamic nature of reality.
He goes on to suggest that experts in the fields of medicine, economics and politics may have something to learn from the physicist and the mystic.
