The Brahmanda Theory: A Critical Analysis of the Convergence Between Vedic Cosmology and Modern Physics

Abstract This paper provides a critical analysis of the central thesis presented in Abhijeet Sarkar's "The Brahmanda Theory: Decoding the Vedic Blueprint for the Origin, Evolution, and Ultimate Fate of Our Universe." Sarkar’s work posits that the ancient Vedic scriptures of India do not merely contain mythological or metaphorical accounts of creation, but rather a sophisticated, coherent, and scientifically resonant cosmological framework—the "Brahmanda Theory." This paper examines the validity and strength of the principal parallels Sarkar draws between specific Vedic concepts and the discoveries of 21st-century cosmology, quantum physics, and consciousness studies.
