Promod Puri

Convert us, We’re adaptable But we’re poor. We’re hungry too. Passing by a temple, a man of god advised “come on in, become Hindu, and be happy and wise.” So, we put on the Hindu hats. “Now close eyes to forget the hunger.” “Meditate for transcendental wonder.” Then a voice was delivered from a nearby mosque “Become Muslims for glory to god,” We emerged as Muslims from the sacred spot.

Other co-winners of the Nobel Prize in physics are Gerard Mourou and Canadian scientist Donna … Continue reading Understanding Physics of 2018 Nobel Winners
