“The Hindus pictured the universe as periodically expanding and contracting, and gave the name kalpa to the unimaginable time span between the beginning and the end of one creation. The scale of this ancient myth is indeed staggering; it has taken the human mind more than two thousand years to come up again with a similar concept.”
Fritjof Capra (1939) is an Austrian-born famous theoretical high-energy physicist and ecologist and the author of The Tao of Physics.
