The Krishna Cancer

“In the ancient times, when ignorance was the default mode of thinking, Krishna may have proven to be a glorious figure to be adored and relied on in times of distress, but in the modern world of conscientious humans, no Krishna is higher than the Human Self.” Abhijit Naskar, a globally acclaimed author comes to the investigation of a divine character of the Eastern religious philosophy—Krishna. With the tools of modern Neuroscience, he enables us to look into the imaginary Krishna character, created by an ancient Indian man, and discover its biological impact on human life. In his peerlessly lucid explanatory ways, Naskar takes us inside the protoplasmic realm of the human brain and reveals to us the implications of belief upon a mythical character in the path of global progress. In “The Krishna Cancer” a twenty-first century humanitarian thinker calls upon the conscientious humans of the thinking society to rise higher than all the mystical figures of human history and build a world where the greatest power will be the power of will, reasoning and love, born in the human mind and put to practice in the service of humanity.
