Abstract

Concepts of ultimate reality in Hinduism namely Brahman and in Buddhism namely Shunyata are discussed from the perspective of Modern Physics. We find that there is an astonishingly close parallelism between the two completely diverse fields. Some speculations are presented suggesting how this could happen. We also discuss universal consciousness as suggested by the two religions.
