Blackhole Singularity Brahman

About this episode

Hinduism speaks of The Brahman, as different from Brahma the Creator,as the Ultimate Reality. It is described as Being, Consciousness and Bliss, Sat, Chit and Ananda. falling into the black hole. The existence of a singularity is often taken as proof that the theory of general relativity has broken down, which is perhaps not unexpected as it occurs in conditions where quantum effects should become important. It is conceivable that some future combined theory of quantum gravity (such as current research into superstrings) may be able to describe black holeswithout the need for singularities, but such a theory is still many years away. According to the “cosmic censorship” hypothesis, a black hole‘s singularity remains hidden behind its event horizon, in that it is always surrounded by an area which does not allowlight to escape, and therefore cannot be directly observed. The only exception the hypothesis allows (known as a “naked”singularity) is the initial Big Bang itself. It seems likely, then, that, by its very nature, we will never be able to fully describe or even understand the singularity at the centre of a black hole. Although an observer can send signals into a black hole, nothing inside the black hole can ever communicate with anything outside it, so its secrets would seem to be safe forever’. https://ramanisblog.in/2015/12/11/blackhole-singularity-describes-brahman-of-hinduism/
