In this book published by Advaita Ashrama, a publication house of Ramakrishna Math, Belur Math, India,  comprising of two lectures, the author shows the intrinsic harmony between science's spirit of critical inquiry into the external nature, and Vedanta's quest for the Eternal within. He supports his view by quoting scientists like Einstein, Eddington, Capra and others, and also from the Hindu scriptures. He successfully points out the way towards the attainment of a synthesis of thought in these two apparently divergent streams of human enquiry, so greatly needed by man today.
