Albert Einstein was born March 14, 1879 in Ulm, Württemberg, Germany. and died April 18, 1955. Albert Einstein was a theoretical physicist who is widely considered to have been the greatest physicist of all time. He was best known for the theory of relativity and specifically the formula, mass-energy equivalence, E = mc2, he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1921, for his services to Theoretical Physics, and especially for his discovery of the law of the photoelectric effect.

I included some quotes by Albert Einstein because there is some strange overlap between the way he sees the world and how many of the enlightened souls and prophets described the world. Somehow, Einstein seems to have caught in his descriptions of the physical world of Physics what many of the prophets and incarnations saw, that is, that the physical world is an illusion. Buddha also embraced this concept in his teachings of the world of matter. Others writers have also explored the remarkable convergence between the mystical traditions of the world and modern science. However, none of them has done this in a more succinct and convincing way than Einstein, enjoy these few remarkable quotes by the famous physics/mystics is fascinating.

According to general relativity, the concept of space detached from any physical content does not exist.

Physical concepts are free creations of the human mind, and are not, however it may seem, uniquely determined by the external world.

Time and again the passion for understanding has led to the illusion that man is able to comprehend the objective world rationally by pure thought without any empirical foundations—in short, by metaphysics. 

Einstein

In our thinking...we attribute to this concept of the bodily object a significance, which is to high degree independent of the sense impression which originally gives rise to it. This is what we mean when we attribute to the bodily object "a real existence." ...By means of such concepts and mental relations between them, we are able to orient ourselves in the labyrinth of sense impressions. These notions and relations...appear to us as stronger and more unalterable than the individual sense experience itself, the character of which as anything other than the result of an illusion or hallucination is never completely guaranteed. 

Einstein

The belief in an external world independent of the perceiving subject is the basis of all natural science. Since, however, sense perception only gives information of this external world or of "physical reality" indirectly, we can only grasp the latter by speculative means. It follows from this that our notions of physical reality can never be final. We must always be ready to change these notions—that is to say, the axiomatic basis of physics—in order to do justice to perceived facts in the most perfect way logically. 

Einstein

A human being is part of the whole called by us universe, a part 
limited in time and space. We experience ourselves, our thoughts and 
feelings as something separate from the rest. A kind of optical 
delusion of consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, 
restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few 
persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from the 
prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living 
creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty. The true value of a 
human being is determined by the measure and the sense in which they 
have obtained liberation from the self. We shall require a 
substantially new manner of thinking if humanity is to survive. 
(Albert Einstein, 1954)

The most beautiful and most profound experience is the sensation of 
the mystical. It is the sower of all true science. He to whom this 
emotion is a stranger, who can no longer wonder and stand rapt in awe, 
is as good as dead. To know that what is impenetrable to us really 
exists, manifesting itself as the highest wisdom and the most radiant 
beauty which our dull faculties can comprehend only in their primitive 
forms - this knowledge, this feeling is at the center of true 
religiousness.
( Albert Einstein - The Merging of Spirit and Science)
