A Nobel prize winner, a great man and a great scientist, Erwin
Schroedinger has made his mark in physics, but his eye scans a far
wider horizon: here are two stimulating and discursive essays which
summarize his philosophical views on the nature of the world.
Schroedinger's world view, derived from the Indian writings of the
Vedanta, is that there is only a single consciousness of which we
are all different aspects. He admits that this view is mystical and
metaphysical and incapable of logical deduction. But he also
insists that this is true of the belief in an external world
capable of influencing the mind and of being influenced by it.
Schroedinger's world view leads naturally to a philosophy of
reverence for life.
