“Not only is the universe stranger than we imagine, it is stranger than we can imagine.”  -  Sir Arthur Eddington Have you ever imagined a ghost walking through walls? In the classical world, that’s impossible — solid matter can’t simply pass through another solid object. Yet, in the mysterious world of quantum physics, something similar happens all the time. Subatomic particles — electrons, protons, and even atoms — can tunnel through barriers that, according to classical physics, they should never cross. This bizarre phenomenon is known as Quantum Tunneling , and it’s one of the most intriguing and revolutionary concepts in modern science. It not only challenges our intuitive understanding of nature but also powers technologies that shape our everyday lives — from flash memory to nuclear fusion in stars. Understanding the Quantum World To understand tunneling, we need to step away from the rules of the everyday world — where a ball must roll over a hill to reach the o...

The Quiet Struggle Inside There is a subtle war that every person carries within. It does not roar like outer conflicts; it hums quietly beneath daily gestures, behind the eyes that smile, inside the heart that hesitates. It is the war between who we truly are and who we believe we are. Most of what we call stress, ambition, or even love, arises from this hidden tension. And its name, if we must give it one, is ego. Ego is not simply pride or arrogance. It is the false center that forms when awareness forgets its source. It grows each time we say “I” but mean the collection of stories, fears, and achievements that surround the real self like mist. The true self is vast, open, luminous—a field of quiet intelligence that knows itself as part of the whole. The ego is that same self clouded by ignorance, mistaking reflection for reality. It is the shadow cast by light forgetting itself. Self-Doubt as Symptom Out of this ignorance comes uneasiness. We begin to feel separate, incomplete...

The human brain has long fascinated scientists, philosophers, and everyday observers. It is the seat of our thoughts, emotions, memories, and imagination — yet it remains one of the greatest mysteries in science. With its billions of neurons and trillions of connections, the brain is often described as the most complex structure in the known universe. But what if we could look at the brain not only as a biological organ but also as a physical system ? What if the same tools used to study galaxies, magnets, or communication networks could help us decode the mysteries of the mind? This is exactly what an emerging field — sometimes called neurophysics — sets out to do. By applying concepts from physics, network science, dynamical systems, and control theory , researchers are beginning to reveal the rules that govern the brain’s architecture and activity. Instead of focusing only on isolated neurons or regions, scientists now study the brain as a network : a system of interconnected nod...
