Personal statement:
I live in Mumbai and work as a day scholar in Bhaktivedanta Institute. After a few years of professional life, I got enrolled for a PhD in Biomedical Engineering, at I.I.T, but an interest in Consciousness brought me here. Consciousness Studies is the emerging new discipline. I am interested in all major consciousness related subjects like Neuroscience, Mind-body medicine and Quantum Physics. Consciousness Studies has expanded the horizons of science and in the process has ‘redefined’ science and I consider myself fortunate to be a part of this major scientific revolution. The Bhaktivedanta Institute provided me with a unique opportunity to study diverse subjects like Artificial Intelligence, Neuroscience, Physics, Western and Indian Philosophy, Mind-Body Medicine, Psychology, all under one roof.
My thesis area is a defined aspect of Consciousness, namely, Attention – and its analysis from the perspective of Psychology, Neuroscience, Biomedical Engineering and Quantum Physics. The Institute library has a very good collection of books and the best experience here has been the intellectually stimulating formal and informal discussions with people from varied areas of research interest.
