What we observe as material bodies and forces are nothing but shapes and variations in the structure of space.
Erwin Schrodinger -
The great revelation of the quantum theory was that features of discreteness were discovered in the Book of Nature, in a context in which anything other than continuity seemed to be absurd according to the views held until then.

There is no kind of framework within which we can find consciousness in the plural; this is simply something we construct because of the temporal plurality of individuals, but it is a false construction... The only solution to this conflict insofar as any is available to us at all lies in the ancient wisdom of the Upanishad.
Erwin Schrodinger -
The world is given to me only once, not one existing and one perceived. Subject and object are only one. The barrier between them cannot be said to have broken down as a result of recent experience in the physical sciences, for this barrier does not exist.
Erwin Schrodinger -
The world is a construct of our sensations, perceptions, memories. It is convenient to regard it as existing objectively on its own. But it certainly does not become manifest by its mere existence.
Erwin Schrodinger -
Science cannot tell us a word about why music delights us, of why and how an old song can move us to tears.
Erwin Schrodinger -
In an honest search for knowledge, you quite often have to abide by ignorance for an indefinite period.
Erwin Schrodinger -
Matter and energy seem granular in structure, and so does “life”, but not so mind.
Erwin Schrodinger
-
Multiplicity is only apparent, in truth, there is only one mind.
Erwin Schrodinger -
Whence come I and whither go I? That is the great unfathomable question. Science has no answer to it.
Erwin Schrodinger -
The mathematical framework of quantum theory has passed countless successful tests and is now universally accepted as a consistent and accurate description of all atomic phenomena.
Erwin Schrodinger -
The task is not to see what has never been seen before, but to think what has never been thought before about what you see everyday.
Erwin Schrodinger -
If a man never contradicts himself, the reason must be that he virtually never says anything at all.
Erwin Schrodinger -
Every man's world picture is and always remains a construct of his mind and cannot be proved to have any other existence.
Erwin Schrodinger
-
Vedanta teaches that consciousness is singular, all happenings are played out in one universal consciousness and there is no multiplicity of selves.
Erwin Schrodinger -
Bohr’s standpoint, that a space-time description is impossible, I reject a limine. Physics does not consist only of atomic research, science does not consist only of physics, and life does not consist only of science. The aim of atomic research is to fit our empirical knowledge concerning it into our other thinking. All of this other thinking, so far as it concerns the outer world, is active in space and time. If it cannot be fitted into space and time, then it fails in its whole aim and one does not know what purpose it really serves.
Erwin Schrodinger -
The scientist only imposes two things, namely truth and sincerity, imposes them upon himself and upon other scientists.
Erwin Schrodinger -
We must not wait for things to come, believing that they are decided by irrescindable destiny. If we want it, we must do something about it.
Erwin Schrodinger -
No self is of itself alone.
Erwin Schrodinger -
The world is given to me only once, not one existing and one perceived. Subject and object are only one.
