Integrating mathematical science and spirituality

I happened to attend to a series of discourses from renowned researchers and some amazing speakers and leaders in their fields and in leaders in their experiences of pure consciousness/Brahman. The talks were a part of Workshop organised by Dr. Sunita Singh Sengupta, a marvellous seeker and human being, who is a part of Faculty of Management Studies (FMS), University of Delhi. The inaugration was done by Sheila Dikshit and she does have substance, a soothing voice and a magnanimous presence.
There were talks of Zero, Shunyata, Infinity, Supreme consciousness, Global Consciousness project, ranging to Vedic mathematics, states of bliss, and pouring of knowledge. I was personally impressed and in awe when people like Shree Shraddhalu Ranade, Mr. Gaurav Tekriwal, Dr. Dinesh Singh, Dr. Vivek Suneja, Dr. Venimadhavan, and Dr. K K Agrawal talked.
I would try to pen down a few points discussed that left me in awe and inspired me a lot! Its difficult for me to represent the magnanimity of what I listened to, but I will give it a shot to verbalise it.
____
Mathematicians would agree that there is no such thing as an exact number, say 1, 2, or 3. Its always infinity approaching to that number, but the number itself, purely cannot be grabbed. Which can be related to what Shri Krishna tells Arjun in Bhagwat Gita - "I am neither This, nor That. Neither Truth, nor Falsity."
____
Ramanujan said - " An equation in itself has no meaning to me, unless it expresses a thought of God". Its known that he was an avid spiritualist, had firm belief in God and the creations of him, as he describes himself -Emerged/poured themselves from God to his conscious self.
____
THAT from which everything manifest emerges, is WHOLE.. THIS(that we see, or we are) is WHOLE. THIS emerged from THAT, even then, THE WHOLE remains a WHOLE - Esha Upanishad (Dhyana padam). Can be related to a series of numbers going to infinity. If we take out all the odd numbers and make them stand in a separate series, even then - the original series remains INFINITE, as does this extracted series. and THIS infinite is no more no less than the original.. or at least there is no way of determining that.
____
What can you say about the location of, say, tip of a mountain? Is it west, east, northeast.. As you can see, it depends upon how you approach it? The tip of the mountain is that SINGULARITY that represents all sides of a mountain!
A causeless indivisible ONE, out of which everything emerges.. (to know it, one has to jump out of the system)
The unmoving one - always ahead of time, even though the Gods chase after it, it goes ahead..While everything else is rushing, THAT exceeds all, without running.
____
The moment there is one, there is two.. and so on.. In the manifest time space, one can never get singular One. All the otherness is inside itself. All the Universe emerged into within itself. Inside the ONE, the ONE manifests. How is it possible? Well.. When we try to feel it, the mind goes blank.
I am identical with whatever I see. Each part of multiplicity is the WHOLE, the ONE.
Everything is an expression of that ONE -indivisible. Every single object is - wholeness represented. If you want to know that ONE whole, do not see things as separate. In seeing the totality, you will find a complete interdependence. No single event can happen if the other events in the Universe doesnt shape to make it happen. Like the whole ocean moves to manifest a wave.

Where ever THE WHOLE expresses itself, it might appear to be finite owing to our limited vision, but it is in effect infinite. Say for example, consider a A4 sheet of paper. It appears to us as if the length is more than the breadth. we can mathematically prove it to be wrong- Consider a point on the length and diagonally connect it to a corresponding point of breadth. For all the points on the length, one can find a corresponding point on the width. Hence proving that the infinite present in the length is no less, no more than the infinite present in the width! Appearances do deceive. :) This can be related to MAYA/Illusion of finite-ness. It is just because of our ability to Measure out from the unmeasurable.
____
We are all an expression of THAT. Within me is the same 0/0 potential of the origin as much in others. The Big Bang power is in all of us. Evolution then, is nothing but that potential decompressing. We are meant to awaken to become co-creators of manifestations. HE grows as we grow. HE grows through us.
_____
Regarding the evil. if all is THAT ONE.
Everyone has RAMA, SITA, HANUMANA within her/him self. Say if I am an actor, when I am acting out the character of RAMA, I am pushing behind hanuman, and sita or ravana in me. When I am acting out Ravana, the others take a back seat. Explaining that everyone of us has the potential to act out good or evil. The concept of Karma jumps in here. Brahman is its own subject and the object.
As an example again- when a father plays arm wrestling with his little kid. Though he can win the game as he has the potential, he let himself lose pretending to the kid that he actually cannot win. He chooses to be good, where he can be evil too!
_____
When I as a limitation meet you as a limitation, Conflicts arise!!!!
_____
Atheists exist because of God.
_____
All physics equations involve a singularity.
I can see the stars today, because there is something common between them and me. THAT INFINITE ABSOLUTE
____
In the game of hide and seek. There is no fun hiding if you are not found/sought after at all. You hide so that you may be discovered.Awakening process is a delight.--Finding of himself by himself, from himself.
