What Is Present Reality

Rate this book
"What is present reality" is an incredibly profound but straightforward exposition of the "limits of science."



Every scientist wishes that someone will falsify the world crafted using the present body of scientific methods one day. One such world comprises the manifold versions of relativity theories, measuring E = mc2. Suppose one deified scientist had not mathematically derived the value of energy in this way. In that case, today's scientists will not bind their understanding to the light serviced by the deified leader scientist, traded and squared by them as a devoted follower.  Evidently, when one conceives energy as mc2, its value-without the presence of the leader deity-is zero.  

This landmark work, grounded in India's ancient cultural metaphysics, challenges the present reality of what we know and believe to be true, whether about divinity, or spirituality, or the universe of objects or subjects, or us as a person. A unique feature is the precise quantification of the lightless energies, of both the present reality as well as the varying paradigms and doctrines working on modifying that. It is a part of a series of twelve books that democratizes the ability to understand our present reality, beyond those who are experts in modern science, and use this understanding for personal as well as societal well-being. The beta reviewers note "This is unbelievable work that would change the way life is seen and lived" and "Looking forward to this being a massive success!"

Dr. Vipin Gupta has a Ph.D. in managerial science and applied economics from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. He is a gold medalist from the Post-graduate Program of the Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad, India. He is a Professor of sensible management and appropriate science at the Jack H. Brown College of Business and Public Administration, California State University San Bernardino, USA.

“What is Present Reality” by Vipin Gupta is the second book in his series, “Discovering the Vastly Integrated Processes Inside Nature.” In this book the author goes in depth into ‘present reality’ by applying the modern scientific concepts on ancient Hindu philosophic and spiritual knowledge utilizing the strategic management methodology. The author presents his concept of what reality is to awaken us and be enable us to manage our present life to produce a meaningful, positive legacy for the future. To accomplish his goal, Gupta walks us through the definition of present reality where the present is the result of different specific past realities influenced by cultural knowledge, which manifests plans for a future reality. This definition is presented within the Ancient Hindu wisdom context.

I found “What is Present Reality” easier to read than the first book, “What is Divine Energy,” as the subject was presented in a less technical format. The book is also broken down into chapters and subchapters and illustrated through tables which help visualize concepts and the author’s voice seemed a little simpler in order for readers to better comprehend. “What is Present Reality” is not a quick easy read. Readers must open their mind and sometimes re-read portions to understand what it is presented. However, as you keep reading, it gets easier. I recommend reading the front matter and preface before starting the first chapter to get basic knowledge needed to process what is coming.

Overall, the main idea I digested in this book is that the present reality is made from past realities affected through our consciousness. The combination of what manifested into a present reality which in turn will be also affected producing different possible futures. If you take that concept and apply the different entities, doctrines, and elements of ancient Hindu wisdom, the result is mind blowing.

In my opinion “What is Present Reality” by Vipin Gupta is a well-written must read for people who wonder about where they are in their life today and where they want to be tomorrow, because by understanding how present reality comes to be, they will uncover how to manifest the desired future instead of a future created and molded by their ancestors’ energies. Thus “What is Present Reality” by Vipin Gupta is a five-star guide to your desired future!

In “What is Present Reality,” Dr. Vipin Gupta uses his experience in strategic management combining the concepts of science and divinity, as he explores our present realities’ scientific nature and the limits that it presents.

It is incredible to see ancient wisdom combined with modern science to gain a greater understanding of the concepts involving our present reality. In doing so, the limitations and boundaries that have been set forth by modern science are lifted and we are also reunited with the knowledge given to us by our ancestors. “What is Present Reality,” is divided into eighteen chapters that are further broken down into subchapters. I found this to be helpful because breaking down complex information into more bite-sized pieces made it easier to comprehend. There are also two indexes, one in English and one in Hindi. Numerous charts and helpful graphics also allow the information to be presented in a more user-friendly manner.

When I read Dr. Gupta’s writings, he makes me feel like he has tapped into this incredible source of knowledge and he is surfing along on waves of the energy emanating from it as he is reaching out to help his readers connect to it. There are moments where I feel like I am following along in the flow and am being given access to some extraordinary knowledge which was previous inaccessible. When something comes along and distracts me, I lose the flow and I feel a sense of loss.

“What is Present Reality,” is similar to his first book in this series, “What is Divine Energy,” in that the writings require your full attention so that you can absorb the meanings. I found it helpful to carefully read about the “Threshold Concepts,” that are described in the preface. It helped give me a better understanding of the material that follows. I also referred back to it several times while I was reading. Readers will also benefit if they journal their perceptions of the information being received and explore how it resonates with their beliefs.

The knowledge that I gained from reading this book helped me realize that if my present reality is created by my past realities and influenced by my cultural conditioning, I can help create my future reality by utilizing the information that is being presented now that I am aware of it. Dr. Gupta is helping us wake up so that we open our eyes and see our reality. In doing this we can manage our present reality so that we are able to live our lives in a meaningful manner. This will shape a more positive future for ourselves and the next generations.

“What is Present Reality,” is highly recommended reading for people who want to explore concepts surrounding their reality and utilize the knowledge gained to learned how to lead better lives.

Phenomenal, Educational and a Miraculous Perspective

In this constructive twelve book project over spirituality, divinity and amalgamation of nature’s best resources, What Is Present Reality comes as Dr. Gupta’s second book. Have you ever felt muddled between thoughts and slowly failing to comprehend what is real and what is an illusion? I have felt so, very often. Being a science graduate, many aspects of life have amazed me and then I failed to gather an answer for those through my scientific knowledge. A thousand concepts hover around us, but do we know the whys and hows about them? Certainly not.
This book challenges the very classical stubbornness of our mentality to follow the big world of scientists. One can find the author bringing in cohesion between thermodynamics, theory of relativity and quantum studies within our daily life activities. It studies the various doctrines to determine what is present reality and how it can influence the future reality. The book starts with a marvellous caution note; to know what is present reality one must discard all the wisdom received so far. Isn’t that bold?
This book works out through 18 chapters in which the author describes how an entity whose divine energy has been channelized properly can realize all the dimensions of reality. You heard it right; reality does have dimension. There is primordial reality which is beautiful and complex and without any effect from primordial entity. Primeval reality is the true reality. It encompasses the effects of primordial entity. Just sit and think over it. Have you ever thought over such things? Read this book and you would get to know what all dimensions are available to what we perceive as reality. Immanent Reality, Ideal reality, theoretical reality and many more. I am not going to spoil the fun by spilling out their definitions. Read this book and you can realize how little we know about being a real being.
Any individual, when enlightened can influence everything and everyone around. What is Present Reality can help in nurturing strategic management skills in any individual. The basic objective of this book is to help a strategic manager to become a present deity. It is an effort to release each child from the limitations of dependence on the external divinity. The first chapter gives a detailed scientific analogy to present reality. The findings of this book will illuminate the secret of reality that is formed through the repeated wandering of divine energy.
Move through the pages and you can realize how a mere thought process can shape up your reality. The author gives a very good example. ‘I am what I believe in’- this kind of thought shapes your present reality. ‘I do what I believe in’ is an action oriented speech and shapes your future reality. The paradigm of the present reality shapes the organizational planning value. We as humans are bound to err. It is often found that the energy we invest in modifying the natural reality changes the potential of a future reality. This book describes the colour potential of every reality very carefully. It is evocative to know how a feminine entity can manifest in catalyzing a transformative planning and how a masculine entity can be instrumental. You will be surprised to read the various strategies that can alter the perceived reality of an organization.
This work is purely academic. If anyone wants to know the amalgamation of nature’s resources with science and how it actually affects our growth as an individual and also as an organization, read this book. You can find a continuous flow of information which connects our simple ideologies to science. Right from being a mere entity to a contributor of strategic management for an organization, this book kindles all sort of information.
Can you believe there are energies of togetherness, otherness, attraction, repulsion and all which apparently determine our concept of reality? Be it present or perceived or future. More you go through the scientific explanations provided in this book; you will realize how miniscule we actually are infront of this vast nature. Every chapter forms an integral part with the readers due to the elaborate explanations given on every topic. And when a book is made to enrich our wisdom towards an organized life, it cannot be an easy or one-go read. You might need more time than usual to read such a masterpiece but it is worth investing this much time. This investigation is devised through determination, imagination, virtue, intuition, nature and excellence. This whole effort of publishing this book is to make the future generation unique and global in their approach. They must be inclusive, diverse, engaged and responsible well being.
I, as a reader and reviewer would like to give 4 stars. The readers will get 3Is while reading this book. Informative, Instructive and Illuminating.

It is a Nutshell investigates our reality as an entity who has the power to shape the present and be the light that affirms our presence in the eternal future.The supernatural value of the past is immanent within the present. The present becomes the subject of scientific investigation. The entity who conceived the scientifically investigable present is the super-scientific factor, whose reality transcends beyond the limits of science. An observer behaves as a mirror image of the present and uses the light of self-consciousness for making clear the reality of the universe. Without the observer’s light, the present of the universe is the dark matter. Once the observer services the sentient light force, the future of the observer is the black hole. As a manager of our reality, we have an option not to transform our sentient energy into a light force, behaving as if we are the white star source of light, for illuminating the reality of the universe. Instead, we may invest our energy for conceiving a different reality at any moment that thereafter constitutes the past.

Such unique reality is scientifically observable in the present as the illuminated matter. The illuminated matter is a proportion of the present, which is the dark matter. Thus, if an observer observes the illuminated matter as the rope, it might as well be a body of atoms that eventually transforms into a body of cells. That body of cells may be the reality of a snake. What we observe and experience in the present is not necessarily the reality. This work reveals the blockages that limit our vision’s dimensionality and the solutions to be the reality that shapes the eternal present.

.
Moving further the next chapter focused on paradigm of the present reality which moved around its theory, hypothesis, types different kinds of theory like taking,making,shaping,taker,mker, shaper & equilibrator.

🙂 The cover of the book is nicely coloured & beautifully designed.
🙂 Writing style of the book is wonderful. Author wrote such a complected topic in a very ease manner that makes you more connected to the topic.
🙂 The language of the book is easy it's quite fascinating. It's a collection of beautiful vocabulary with a very neat description.
🙂 The narrative style of the book is little bit old fashioned. But it's just matched to the plot line. Those subplots are keeps your interest intact to read the book but somehow little too much of something might be harmful what happened in this case. The excessive detailed narration sometimes make it a boring read.
🙂 The book is moderately paced.

There is a time when you find yourself involved with the universal question of your reality, your existence, and existence of time in the present sense. 'What is present reality' by Dr. Amit Gupta is an another masterpiece presented by the author in his series of 12 books over self realization, a journey to discover the infinite potential that lies with in you. Author has beautifull inked the linkages of the famous equation by Albert Einstien, the mass-energy relation and India’s ancient cultural metaphysics that questions and clarifies the arguments based on sprituality and divinity that ultimately leads to discovering inside you, knowing your reality and the truth of existence. The book describes how modern science can help in knowing societal well-being. An engrossing narration and vividly connecting decent vocabulary adds stars to it. A justified tittle and attractive cover adds up to it's feature. Author has maintained the quality of content through out the book wrapped between the pages. It is a good engaging piece for curious readers.

WHAT IS PRESENT RELAITY is written by VIPIN SINGH. The book talks majorly about Self actualisation. It tells us to know about our self actualisation with relation to our present. The concepts are explained in detail. You will learn many new things from the book just as I did. I aint from the science background so some things bounced off my head . It is a very informative read . If you are somebody you wants to read knowledge above other genres then this should be your pick. I felt he language wasn't easy to understand . For people skilled in this industry might get it easily but for a person like me who is new to this it can be difficult to understand. The cover looks attractive and so does the title. The narration is done well too. I will recommend this book to people who have experience in Psychology or science fields.

What is Present Reality? authored by Vipin Gupta provides a thorough analysis of present reality and its relationship to physics and mathematics.

A significant portion also includes Ramayana-related explanations.
The author explains the connections and interactions between numerical concepts and domains.

The book is 325 pages long, making it a challenging read.
The language in the book is difficult to comprehend.
The contents of the book are very complicated.
Except for a few things, everything else is very complex

It's a good book, but it takes a long time to fully grasp all of the information. Before reading this book, you should have a solid understanding of math and physics.

The second book in the series of books written by Dr.Vipin Gupta is this book called “What is present reality?”
The main principle surrounding this book is that though the scientists find out the possibilities of various events with the help of probabilities and mathematics, the author stresses that it becomes useless unless they also integrate the cultural quotient and knowledge. This has been very rationally explained by the author across 18 chapters, giving a thorough insight into Present reality. Once again, this book was also filled with so much scientific jargon, and I would caution the readers before reading this. The examples provided by the author were good and made the read interesting.

The book talks about self-realization by using modern science. The book challenges the classical determination, neoclassical thermodynamism and modern probabilistic relativism of knowing the present reality.

The book examines the diverse doctrines for the paradigmatic planning of the future reality. The author has explained everything in a well detailed manner. It's quite an informative book.

It's a good book but a bit difficult and takes some time to grasp the information. You should have a good understanding of math and physics before reading this book. Overall, it's a useful book!

The book is about to make you realise about self actualisation in relation with present. Your present is all about the past deeds and futuristic vision. Here in this book this concept is being discussed in research based manner. Its detail points give a realistic and convincing content to the readers to believe on.

The journey of life is time bond and during this time a human being come across different mode of knowledge and perfection. The books talks about everything related to this concept in well crafted manner.

The book is about the major concept of present reality. There is an explanation of various concepts and relationship between concepts and domains. In this case, science and the current state of affairs have been compared in terms of life stages.The book is a bit long with 318 pages long so one can think about the vastness of the topic.

The language of the book is a little complex but if you read it carefully you can understand the context. Overall a good read with an informative topic.
