The Road to pSingularity - Second Revised Edition

An image of the cosmos as reflected in the still waters of a dispassionate computational analysis. Five different strands of thought – namely, Advaita Vedanta, the plausibility of illusions in a digital ecosystem, the mathematics of the Universal Turing Machine, the persistent and evolving nature of the Genome and Gödel’s Theorem of Incompleteness – are brought together to create a modern perspective of a world view that was first articulated by Sankaracharya. This vision is delivered, not as a discourse, but instead through a dialogue between a Seeker and Sceptic. Finally, the ubiquity of causality and the existence of free will are challenged and the cosmos is sought to be explained in terms of patterns – the Contours of the Eternal – to which all sentient consciousness finally converge in the ecstasy of pSingularity : the primordial Singularity
