A Life Of A Physicist In Agricultural Research

A Professional Autobiography

By: ANIL VISHNU MOHARIR

“There are not many books of this nature and kind in India on the history of scientific research coming straight from the participating scientist himself. In that sense the book-‘A Life of a physicist in agricultural research: A Professional autobiography’ by Professor Anil Vishnu Moharir makes a significant contribution in chronicling the work done by him in the Indian context. Efforts put in by Professor Moharir would motivate many young and bright students of physics to foray in the field of biology and agriculture for a satisfying career and opportunities for innovative and original research contribution to their credit”. – Dr. Vijay Digambar Garde, Ph.D. Moscow, Retd. General Manager, Bharat Heavy Electricals Ltd., Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, India. “The book in fact is a description of the research work done by the author himself in the field of agriculture, an area for which he had no formal education and training. It is interesting to read, how the author not only got his foothold but contributed in a significant way”. – Padmabhushan Prof. Dr. Ram Badan Singh, FNAAS, President, National Academy of Agricultural Sciences, DP Shastri Marg, New Delhi, India. “Your book falls in the category of ‘Professional Biography’. Very few Indians have attempted that. Your effort is therefore welcome. You have traced your research journey and career course so successfully completed in this well-articulated document. You have aptly described the institutional workings, lost opportunities due to myopic policies and wrong perceptions. It is amazing to see that you have moved from the main-stream physics and still contributed at the world class level in the allied but new fields”. – Prof. Vivek N. Patkar, Retd. Professor and a versatile freelance researcher, writer, author and promoter of science education, Mumbai, Maharashtra, India. “Thank you very much for the reprint of your paper-‘Moisture Desorption and Absorption Isotherms for Seeds of Some Cultivars of Triticum aestivum and Triticum durum wheat’. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it, and even re-reading it. It does not happen often that one can read papers where the author is working at the cross-fertilizing the fields of plant science and physical chemistry. I do believe that your results will have profound implications in every agricultural discipline (not only in breeding), and for every crop that humans are cultivating for obtaining their foods. Up to now, I was more used to seeing and also measuring classical isotherms with water activity on the X-axis and moisture content on the Y-axis, and have the kinetic data separately presented. I like your presentation of ‘Normalized mass of seeds’ over time. Your concept of hysteresis area is very talkative, very expressive. No doubt that it will prove helpful to speed up and to improve plant breeding process”. – Dr. Luc De Bry, Ph.D., Head of Research Department, M/S Dannone Biscuits, Herental, Belgium

Random Walks in Solitude

By: Anil Vishnu Moharir

Random Walks In Solitude Glimpses of Religion and Spirituality through the Eyes of Modern Science The ‘Random Walks in Solitude: Glimpses of Religion and Spirituality through the Eyes of Modern Science’ is a collection of articles published by the author since 2006 AD. The topics include some of the most complex and enigmatic subjects as ‘Concept of Prana’, ‘Universal Consciousness’, ‘Scientific basis of Samudra Manthan the Proverbial Churning of Cosmic Ocean’, ‘Lord Dattatreya’, ‘Ardha-Nari-Nateshwara’ and ‘Science behind ‘Yogic Samadhi’. While doing so, the author does not claim that his interpretations on some of these enigmatic concepts are exactly true, but in the absence of any serious attempt done so far, they feel refreshing and he has attempted to re-validate religion and spirituality on scientific logic and reasons. Otherwise, we as a community were just holding them dear to our hearts for thousands of years as fanciful stories. These concepts were conceived and described by our ancient ‘Rishis’ in native terminologies and language and since then, have remained a part of our psyche in our life. Today, as professional scientists, we need to re-look to these concepts afresh from modern scientific perspective, identify and correlate them with current scientifically analogous terminologies, without losing their original perceptive meaning, they conveyed to our minds. In this respect, the logical scientific interpretations of the concepts of ‘Soul’, ‘Rebirth’, ‘Work’ and the ‘Law of Karma’, published earlier by the author, have received considerable attention and appreciation. In the same spirit, the author hopes that the readers would find this book also equally interesting, innovative, refreshing and scientifically logical to realize the continued relevance of the ‘Sanatan Vedic Philosophy’ even in the twenty first century.

A Scientific Look at the Concept of Soul

By: Anil Vishnu Moharir

The world has always been intrigued by the enigmatic. One such mystifying concept that has gripped the human psyche since ages is the concept of 'soul'. The idea of soul, life after death, and reincarnation has long been a tantalizing subject for religious preachers, scientists, and the common man. In this splendid work, Dr Anil Moharir has presented a holistic, multidisciplinary overview of the much contested subjects of 'soul' and 'rebirth' guided by his scientific instincts. Readers will get an in-depth understanding of the notions that have always puzzled the world. The book is perhaps the first of its kind to indulge in the analysis of such a difficult, socio-psychologically complex, and emotionally challenging concept prevalent across diverse cultures for thousands of years.
