As we go through our lives, sometimes we stop to ponder on such questions as who am I, will I cease to exist, what are these thoughts after all, what is my Self? In this book, we don't claim to answer these deep questions, but provide some pointers towards their solutions in related directions. The reader who wants a deeper understanding of the Self and Its Universe, will find much to munch on from this serving.

In this little book, you will find thoughts that will stimulate excursions into the Infinite.

This volume contains direct pointers to the realm beyond the mundane mind. The reader will also find it enjoyable to read about some forays in applying a rate-distortion like theory in a network setting. This volume is a continuation of the series on integration of science and spirituality, presenting to the diligent investigator and seeker, many avenues to further his or her quest.

This milestone volume of the Anabhayin series, volume eight, marks the tenth published book of the present author, all of which are essentially on the interface between science and spirituality (one, a Hindi translation, is a scriptural commentary). We seek in this tenth book, to present further insights for the seeker of truth or the elusive God-head. These insights are presented from various perspectives, 'levels' of consciousness, and it is our hope that the appropriate reading will attract the reader's attention. In this volume, we also present a study of demyelination in multiple sclerosis. This nerve disease which is quite prevalent and debilitating, if studied thoroughly, can provide the scientifically minded with a forum for coming to terms with, and putting to use, all the major tools of modern math and science. A study such as the one presented here clarifies the impact of focal demyelination on the nerve, in a mathematical way. We hope that the curious reader will find it a joy to read both the science and spirituality offerings of this volume.
