Review & Description
Copyright © 2005 by Mani Bhaumik. Reprinted by permission.
This L. A. TIMES BESTSELLER is the odyssey of a scientist who achieved the impossible dream in America and traveled the path towards renewed spirituality, while anchoring his faith in science. Code Name God by Dr. MANI BHAUMIK chronicles the remarkable and inspirational story of the internationally recognized co-inventor of the laser technology that made LASIK eye surgery possible. More significantly, this is a book for everyone who wants to bridge the gap between science and spirituality. Code Name God is the tollbooth on the road to the journey of life and how it really works.
Dr. Bhaumik offers a sketch of his own unbelievable life to confirm that quantum leaps do happen. He lived through a Tsunami-like tidal wave, saw his village wiped out with three million people dying in its aftermath. He never owned a pair of shoes until he was sixteen and he landed in Los Angeles with a mere three dollars in his pocket. From his impoverished childhood in his native India, he went on to be featured in The Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous, to the hallowed halls of science and academia in America, and to parties with presidents and celebrities. He eventually experienced an enormous emptiness of existence before returning to his spiritual roots and came to the realization that "happiness is an inside job."
Code Name God confirms that transcending all theologies and denominations, humankind has had a conviction of a creator divinity. Having brought the universe into existence, it remains present throughout, unfolding the ongoing creation. People seem to have always accepted that the Creator will never be revealed to us empirically. Dr Bhaumik finds remarkable support from science for the one source of religion. He portrays our objective knowledge of an abstract entity that permeates the entire universe. He also argues why an inseparable association of that universal entity with consciousness appears credible and why it would be logical to infer that the one source of the world's great spiritual traditions is grounded in scientific reality. Code Name God illustrates for general readers the particulars of these profound new discoveries of science. Read more
