Book Description

About the Book

The book presents the view of the Einstein Theory regarding the unification of space-time and its role of the Jainism in perceptive of the modern age and also shows that the quantum theory which has to be of further advancement in view of the logical operations which created an empirical new standpoint of the world. In fact the book discusses how the Eastern and Western thoughts of space and time which is simultaneously playing part in the contemporary world. The book contains following chapters; Ch.1 Advent of Space-time, Ch.2 Jaina’s View of Reality as Modern Thoughts of Space and Time, Ch.3 Quantum Theory role in Deviant Logic, Ch.4 Role of Universals Thought Experiment : Reductio ad Absurdum, Ch.5 General Theories of Space-Time, and Ch.6 Logico- Spatio-Temporal Space

Foreword

The main significance of this book is to emphasize the role of space and time and the importance of "indeterminacy" played by Syadvada in Jainas Philosophy along with the Physicist Heiserberg's "Uncertaincy Principle" in Quantum Mechanics. Also with the importance of the unification of Space-Time by the great physicist and philosopher Einstein. For further information I have provided "truth-tables" of Jainas Syadvada and Quantum Logic.

This book is written in view of the Einstein Theory regarding the unification of space-time and its role of the ancient schools (mainly Jainas) in perceptive of the modern age and also shows that the quantum theory which has to be of further advancement in view of the logical operations which created an empirical new standpoint of the world. In fact the book discusses how the Eastern and Western thoughts of space and time which is simultaneously play part in the contemporary world.

In Chapter I, the advent of the 20th Century, ventures into ancient thinking of old schools who could visualise modern ideas of space and time and quantum theory theory.

In Chapter II, we in this book select the ancient schools of Jainas because I find it most suitable in view of the unification of space-time in the 20th century. The Jainas idea of space and time were exposed by their "Syadvada Theory" of seven possibilities.

7 In Chapter II, shows that the macroscopic ideas of classical logic were not sufficient to microscopic fields, in respect of Quantum (Deviant) Logic. This is in view of the In Chapter IV, we have a general survey of space time and other aspects of varied ideas. The following are listed below:-

1. Role of Universal.

2. Thoughts Experiments.

3. Reductio ad Absurdum.

In Chapter V, we have the General Theories of Space-Time with a topological manifold and co-ordination of space-time.

Lastly, the conclusively Chapter VI, contains the paper that I have read in a seminar in Berlin (1992 July). It mentions the Heterologic angle with an empirical standpoint of (a) Probability in the physical sciences and (b) possibility in social sciences. However, in the above Chapter VI, at the moment, I select the probability section. Also I mentioned a matrix formulation of space-time and a geometrical structure of it.

The Reader is requested to note that no diacritical marks are made for Sanskrit words.

I wish you all a good reading and a serious thought of "indeterminacy" in our todays "Micro-World" passed by the jet-set world at the end of the 20th century. May be the ‘indeterminacy’ of the *Micro-World’ as it appears in today world, may change by the beginning of the 21st century. The "strict causality’ of Newton, may loosen the causality in the 21st century.
