Vedic Ways to the Secrets of the Neutrino

Abstract

This paper reveals the neutrino as the very first evolute or quantum of consciousness in the manifest domain, and its unique role and special agency for that reason as the Cosmic Information Transmitter 
(CIT). Facts about neutrino release from black holes, their ubiquitous presence and incredible numbers, and the role of the conscious observer in quantum mechanics are integrated to portray the critical part played by the elusive neutrino in the formation and evolution of the universe. The primacy of consciousness to a comprehensive Grand Unified Theory of Everything is also pointed out. The discoveries reported here started with neutrino facts from physics and cosmology, followed by the revelation of its subtle secrets during meditation on the glorious Gayatri mantra and other spiritual practices. The paper begins with the scientist’s view of the neutrino, then has a Vedic interlude in which its supra-physical role is revealed, confirmed by Vedic sources and a most intriguing Purāṇic reference to three kinds of entities that travel on the pathways of the Sun’s rays to influence human affairs. It concludes with the important discovery of the primacy of the neutrino in the sequence of matter-energy manifestation and its identification with the pavitraka, or most subtle or pure particle as defined in theSanskritakosha. On the basis of the new knowledge disclosed here, the neutrino is given the new name citaṇu – the atom (aṇu) or quantum of consciousness (cit).
