Exploring Time Dilation Through Science and Hinduism

  • Summary

  • This podcast episode discusses the concept of time dilation, a scientific phenomenon where time passes at different rates depending on an object's speed and proximity to a strong gravitational field. The podcast explores the scientific explanation of time dilation through Einstein's theory of relativity, using examples like twin paradoxes and GPS technology. It then contrasts the linear view of time in Western thought with the cyclical concept of time in Hinduism, which views time as a repeating cycle of creation, preservation, and destruction. The podcast ultimately argues that both modern science and Hindu philosophy offer valuable insights into the nature of time, suggesting that time is not a fixed entity, but a complex and dynamic phenomenon.
