Nanotechnology & Bhasm in Ayurveda Part 2 with Prof. Balram Singh & Dr. Mrittunjoy Guha

In the second of a two-video series interaction between Prof. Balram Singh (Institute of Advanced Sciences) and Dr. Mrittunjoy Guha Majumdar (IISc Bangalore), the centre of focus is on a specific scientific study of an element of Ayurveda that has been spoken of since times immemorial - Bhasma or metallic powders, particularly physico-chemical properties of herbally prepared silver nanoparticles and its potential as a drug bioenhancer and the integrity of cellular junctions in the presence of Swarna Bhasma, besides various contemporary characterizations of Bhasma that can validate (or not) the attributes mentioned in ancient texts, such as Apunarbhavata, Varitaratavam and Nishchandratvam. Prof. Singh and Dr. Guha Majumdar also speak on the nature of reality at its most fundamental, in this interaction. They look primarily at the conceptualisation of Sunyata and ānīdavātam, whether the quantum void can really be equated to Sunya or Brahman, as well as the vibratory and possibly self-organising nature of reality. They also touch upon the modelling of consciousness and Penrose's Cyclic Cosmology Model.
