So I am reading Strogatz book on chaos, I am now at the Josephson junctions.
It seems Josephson after winning the nobel prize went beserk and pursued transcendental meditation and spoon bending; I also have the book by Robin Ticciati on QFT for Mathematicians on my shelf and I know that he teaches at Mahrishi university which is not well reputed to say the least.
What do you think make people to go to pseudo science after they pursued natural science or engineering?
Do they think they will get to the truth through that? whatever that truth may be.
Even when I go mad, is just that I am on a streak of learning from my maths, physics, engineering and logic books; but I never tempted on going "spiritual", it's not in my nature.
