Sinopsis
This monograph presents the author's in-depth research on consciousness in both human and cosmic contexts an area that continues to challenge scientists in the West and sages in the East. It explores profound questions such as: Why did evolution introduce consciousness? How was it incorporated into the evolutionary process? Why do we need a first-person subjective experience of the world when objective mechanisms could suffice?
Drawing on discoveries and theories from material science, neuroscience, biology, anthropology, psychology, and philosophy, the author contrasts these with the rich subjective insights of the Upanishadic sages and contemporary Indian philosophers and mystics. With extensive citations and thoughtful analysis, this monograph offers a compelling, scholarly, and thought-provoking read for anyone interested in the mysteries of consciousness.

Acerca del autor
K.V. RAGHUPATHI, Ph.D. (b. 1957), born into a Telugu-speaking family, developed an interest in Yoga and spirituality at an early age. Without a guru, he left home at the age of eighteen (in 1974) and has lived alone ever since, dedicating over four decades to intense sādhanā as a devoted sādhaka in the Patanjali Yogic tradition. His insights, drawn from personal experience, have found expression in numerous articles, books, lectures, and talks- many of which he shares through his own Yoga Channel, WhatsApp, and spiritual and philosophical discussions. He describes his entry into the Yogic path as an "accidental fall."
A self-taught yogi, Raghupathi holds radical and original views on Yoga and spirituality. His notable books in this field include: My Tryst with Yoga and Other Essays (2018), Yoga for Peace (2007/2019), Yoga and Zen (2007), Hastha Yoga: Theory and Practice (2018), Dispersing Clouds: Discourses on Yoga (2022), and Think with Heart and Feel with Mind: The Yoga Diary (2 vols., 2023). In addition, he is widely recognized for his mystical poetry-having published fourteen collections to date-marked by profound philosophy, transcend-ental thought, romantic elements, and vivid imagery.
He previously taught at the Central University of Tamil Nadu, Thiruvarur, and now lives a reclusive life in Tirupati.
