Abstract

This paper explores the philosophical and metaphysical relationship between the Supreme Soul (Paramatman) and the individual soul (Jivatman) within the framework of Swami Vivekananda’s concept of education, through the lens of quantum entanglement. Drawing from Advaita Vedanta and Vivekananda’s interpretation of non-dualistic unity, the study examines the notion that true education manifests the divine perfection already inherent in the individual. This metaphysical idea parallels the concept of quantum entanglement, wherein particles that have interacted remain interconnected across time and space. By aligning these philosophical and scientific paradigms, the research proposes that the Supreme Soul and the individual soul are fundamentally unified, though perceived as separate due to ignorance (Avidya). The paper suggests that Vivekananda’s vision of education as the unfolding of inner divinity resonates with contemporary scientific understandings of interconnectedness, offering a holistic, integrative educational paradigm for spiritual and intellectual evolution.
