Summary
AI-generated from the abstractThis paper draws analogies between concepts from quantum mechanics and teachings from the Shreemad Bhagwat Geeta, a foundational Indian spiritual text. It argues that the Geeta can serve as a guide across many fields, while quantum mechanics underpins modern physical sciences. The work explores parallels between spiritual and quantum ideas, aiming to bridge ancient wisdom and contemporary physics.

Abstract
Shreemad Bhagwat Geeta is one of the great spiritual writings which one can locate among the Indian spiritual writings. Shreemad Bhagwat Geeta may be considered as a path director in many fields. This is one of the most pious and holistic spiritual writing. Quantum mechanics, though is the development of last century and has approximately 100-125 years of its development. This mechanics is serving as a backbone of the studies of physical sciences precisely in the structural and properties studies of the matter. The aim of the present paper is to establish analogy between some concept of physical sciences especially from quantum mechanics with that of Shreemad Bhagwat Geeta.
