Amit Goswami (Faridpur, November 4, 1936) is an Indian physicist and professor, author of books that seek to reconcile science and spirituality based on concepts of quantum physics. Co-founder of Quantum Activism Vishwalayam, in India, and Quantum Academy, in Brazil, he is the creator of the movement called “quantum activism”. Goswami became known worldwide after having published his book The self-conscious universe and, later, for having participated in the documentary What the bleep do we know? in 2004.
Biography[edit]
Son of an Indian guru, Amit Goswami pursued an academic career until he received a doctorate in Nuclear Physics from the University of Calcutta in 1964. Moving to the United States in 1968, he worked as a researcher and professor at the Department of Physics at the University of Oregon until 1997, where he has been a retired professor since 2003.[1] A researcher in quantum physics, he questioned scientific materialism and became a reference in studies that reconcile science and spirituality, defending a more inclusive worldview that holds that consciousness, and not matter, is the basis of all existence.
In 2009, he started the so-called “quantum activism”, a movement that believes in transforming human beings and the world based on values other than materialism. For this, it uses the principles of quantum physics such as discontinuity and non-locality to indicate possibilities for spiritual development and creativity.
This movement has been gaining ground in North and South America, European countries, and in India.
In 2018, he founded with his collaborators Quantum Activism Vishwalayam, an educational institution offering master's and doctoral programs in Quantum Science of Health, Wealth and Happiness in conjunction with Jaipur University of Technology.
