Einstein was fascinated by Hindu spiritual thought, particularly the Bhagwat Gita and Upanishads, seeing parallels between their concepts of a unified reality and his own scientific theories. While he did not believe in a personal God, he admired the spiritual and philosophical insights, notably stating that reading the Bhagavad Gita made his scientific work seem "superfluous". He famously stated, "When I read the Bhagavad-Gita and reflect about how God created this universe, everything else seems so superfluous". Given his documented admiration for Vedic philosophy it is worth considering how one may have influenced the other. 

In Vedic philosophy - Shiv (ultimate supreme being)  without Shakti (energy) is nothing but Shav (mass). Einstein during his marvellous scientific adventures discovered that what binds Shav (mass) and Shakti (energy) together is Light (c); i.e. E=Mc2. If we keep up with this analogous play, 'Light' in wisdom traditions has often been referred to as wisdom or knowledge. 

Let us now consider the possibility to re-connect ancient wisdom and modern advancement for this example. It is perhaps fair to say that today's human- in light of modern technological advancements, and, wisdom traditions, can possess- the right proportions of mass (modern physiology), and energy (ancient knowledge systems), both intertwined by light (wisdom).
