Mani Lal Bhaumik
In 1961, he joined the Quantum Electronics Division at Xerox Electro-Optical Systems in Pasadena and began his career as a laser scientist. This is the class of laser that would eventually eliminate the need for glasses or contact lenses in many cases requiring vision correction.patents. Subsequently, it found extensive use as the type of laser that made possible the immensely popular Lasik eye surgery, eliminating the need for glasses or contact lenses in many cases requiring vision correction.
In 1968, he was enlisted by the Northrop Corporate Research Laboratory, where he rose to become the director of the Laser Technology Laboratory and led the team responsible for the development of the excimer laser technology.Dr.Bhaumik announced the successful demonstration of the world s first efficient excimer laser at the Denver, Colorado meeting of the Optical Society of America in May 1973. The procedure popularly known as Lasik takes less than a minute and has helped over fifteen million people worldwide. In recognition of his pioneering research in high energy lasers and new laser systems, he was elected by his peers as a fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers as well as of the American Physical Society. Dr.
from the University of Calcutta. Petersburg Sister City association; the Long Beach Calcutta sister City Association and others.
•Founding Director, Friends of Kolkata Museum of Arts, Inc., Los Angeles, set up for raising funds to support the museum in Calcutta. He has been a physicist, author, lecturer, entrepreneur, and philanthropist. His early contributions to laser technology are exemplified in the development of the excimer laser at the Northrop Corporation Research and Technology Center in Los Angeles.
Bhaumik is revered in his native West Bengal, where a book length biography, Mani the Jewel, has been a consistent bestseller. A mysterious new form of energy seems to make up most of the universe. The trick, Bhaumik asserts, is to see things in an entirely new light–a light shed upon by the recent revelations of quantum physics and cosmology.
He now devotes much of his time and energy to bringing this message to the public, including its younger members, for whom he has recently published The Cosmic Detective (Penguin 2008), a primer on cosmology, and created an award winning animated television series, Quantum Ray, shown on DISH Network’s Animania channel and distributed worldwide. Dr. He won the attention of Satyendra Nath Bose at IIT (co-creator of the Bose-Einstein Statistics) who encouraged his prodigious curiosity.
Bhaumik announced the successful demonstration of the world s first efficient excimer laser at the Denver, Colorado meeting of the Optical Society of America in May 1973. He received a Bachelor of Science degree from Scottish Church College and an M.
His life was chronicled on Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous. Bhaumik came to the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) for post doctoral studies.

Due to his extraordinary achievements Dr.
•Founder of the annual Bhaumik International Award at UCLA for the best scientific evidence demonstrating effect of mind on healing. Bhaumik s current interest is in sharing with the public the astounding advances in quantum physics and cosmology and their implications for our lives, work, technology, and spiritual development.
Bhaumik earned a Ph.D in Physics from the IIT (Indian Institute of Technology)at Kharagpur. Con-currently, he also taught Quantum physics and Astronomy at the California State University at Long Beach.
•Managing Trustee, Moni Bhaumik Educational foundation in Calcutta, India. In recognition of his pioneering research in high energy lasers and new laser systems, he was elected by his peers as a fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers as well as of the American Physical Society. Dr.
As the leader of the team, Dr. He also argues forcefully that contrary to the popular misconception, science and spirituality are indeed two sides of the same coin, the coin being that unique human consciousness that allows us to perceive both ourselves and objective reality.
His thesis was on Resonant Electronic Energy Transfers, a subject he would have cause to use in his work with lasers. Receiving a Sloan Foundation Fellowship in 1959, Dr. He has donated to various charitable organizations including the Thalians of Los Angeles and the Israel Cancer Research Fund.
Sc. The Foundation provides full financial support for university education of over one hundred highly meritorious but extremely underprivileged students from rural Bengal.
As an impressionable teenager, he and his family had the opportunity to live and work with M K Gandhi in his camp, and to absorb lessons about “faith in action” that would return to him later. Bhaumik s current interest is in sharing with the public the advances in quantum physics and cosmology and their implications. Bhaumik was born in an Indian village, and thrust into the vortex of the struggle for Indian independence.

Therefore, he argues in his book Code Name God (Crossroads Publishing), the big divide between science and spirituality can be bridged.

His latest paper, Unified Field--the Universal Blueprint? appeared in the February 2000 issue of the International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences. Mani Bhaumik Bengali: মণিলাল ভৌমিক) is an Indian-born American now in his 70s.
He has been invited to lecture all over the world, at forums including: Summer School on High-Power Gas Lasers, Capri, Italy 1975; International Symposium on Gas-Flow and Chemical Lasers, Belgium 1978; International Symposium on Gas Discharge Lasers, Grenoble, France 1979; Asoke Sarkar Memorial Lecture, Calcutta International Book Fair 2001; Institute of Culture, Calcutta, India 2006; Netaji Subhas Open University, Calcutta, India 2008. He is the official patron of the International Year of Astronomy (IYA). Dr. Education provided him a way out of poverty.
This he endeavours to do through books, articles, lectures, and TV programs. Bhaumik has instituted an annual International Award through the UCLA Neuropsychiatry Institute to acknowledge the best scientific evidence demonstrating the effect of mind in healing.
Bhaumik utilizing earnings from his scientific career to seed various investments and was able to leave the poverty of his childhood behind. Bhaumik has published over fifty papers in various professional journals and is a holder of a dozen laser-related U.S.
But he is perhaps best known and revered internationally for his creation of the Bhaumik Educational Foundation, based in Calcutta, which provides full scholarships to needy but brilliant students who wish to apply themselves to studies in science and technology. •Elected fellow of the American Physical Society for Advancement of Physics, 1976 •Elected fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers for development of high power lasers and new laser systems, 1982 •Elected to the prestigious Cosmos Club, Washington, D.C. •Elected Member of the scientific honor society, Sigma Xi, Los Angeles •Received Honorary D.Sc degree for Lifetime Academic Achievements from Indian Institute of Technology, 1995 •Received Lifetime Achievement Award, North America Bengali association, Los Angeles, 2003 •Honored by the Cultural Association of Bengal for Philanthropic Services to community, New York, 2005 •Received Mahatma Gandhi Humanitarian Award from Indian American Heritage Foundation presented by Sir Ben Kingsley, Beverly Hills, 2005 •Received Award for Outstanding Achievement in Science and Philanthropic Contribution from Asian Heritage Committee, New York, 2006 •Elected fellow of the Asiatic Society, Calcutta, India, 2006 •Listed in Who’s Who in America and in Who’s who in the World •Listed in the American Men and Women in Science 1.

Later he discovered that spirituality is an essential ingredient for an abiding happiness and turned to the study of the relationship between advanced science and spirituality. His intensive search spanned a decade, produced a number of significant papers, and led him to the inference that the One Source at the hub of all spiritual traditions is grounded in scientific reality and not a mere creation of blind faith.
He is also keenly interested in research on the origin and the nature of consciousness and how that knowledge can be utilised in improving the quality of our existence. Dr.
