Additional information
by Paulson Kolangaden (Author)
This book is an attempt to analyze the glory of creation; and the backward integration to the source, in an attempt to visualize God. In the early chapters, I have taken a critical look at the common understanding of love, and have tried to dissect it from a spiritual standpoint. In this process, what I found was a universal distribution of a love relationship, with a guiding force behind it emanating from a single source. This led me to examine other virtues in a similar manner; each time, attaching them to a single source. I called this source GOD. In the later chapters, I have tried to visualize and extract characteristic features of such a source. I have also tried to define Sin, and Revenge. Explanations have been given to show how interrelated they are. I have further explained why forgiveness is a far superior virtue. I have tried to project my view of heaven and hell, in this book.
Author Biography
Paulson Kolangaden is a family man, who spent the last four decades of his life as a successful technocrat, yet deeply devoted to his faith. In this book, he gives technical explanations to many spiritual questions, in his own way. These are the questions he encountered in his own life as he ventured to find God himself. As a teenager, his attempt was to explain love. After engineering school, the thought process became influenced by science. In his thirties and forties, it became an obsession to explain critical issues in faith. The collection of his notes became his spiritual scrapbook, and began to call it "Theo science". As time went by, the scope and the thinking changed, and it became a quest to find God. This book is the collection of such thoughts during a period of almost four and a half decades. The fifth chapter, which is on truth, is written by my daughter, Kavitha Kolangaden. Here she discusses how truth as a virtue is similar to love. How truth is felt and connects us all.
