Dr. Omkar Prasad Baidya, a remarkable individual born in Agartala, Tripura, in 1984, stands at the crossroads of healing, philosophy, literature, and profound thought. His transformative work, showcased in the recently released “Morality Beyond the Human Brain: Scientific and Philosophical Exploration,” not only introduces a groundbreaking perspective on morality but also presents a unique mathematical model of morality that transcends traditional boundaries.
Dr. Baidya’s intellectual journey has given rise to a paradigm-shifting revelation – morality and immorality are not abstract concepts but integral components of the struggle for existence and the survival of all living organisms, humans included, on our precious planet. His earlier work, “A Path to World Peace,” further elucidates the crucial role of universal religion and human virtues, such as compassion, nonviolence, and forgiveness, in shaping and safeguarding human lives and civilization. These virtues, as he proposes, form the three pillars supporting global peace, underscoring the interconnectedness of human morality and the pursuit of worldwide harmony.
In “Universal Ethics and World Peace: My Philosophy of Life,” Dr. Baidya accentuates the importance of universal ethics in nurturing global tranquillity. He advocates for a universal religion that places a strong emphasis on the development of morality, universal ethics, and human virtues as catalysts for promoting peace on a global scale. At the heart of his philosophy lies the belief that world peace is intricately linked to human morality and virtues – a vision that resonates throughout his literary endeavours.
Expanding his exploration of morality, “Nature and Morality” sees Dr. Baidya hypothesizing that Mother Nature herself possesses a morality that shapes the physical laws and natural phenomena responsible for the stability of our world and universe. He suggests that human morality significantly influences nature’s creation, the physical world, and all other forms of biological life.
Beyond the pages of his books, Dr. Baidya actively supports and encourages charitable organizations dedicated to humanitarian work, human development, peace, and poverty eradication. His commitment to humanity and morality extends far beyond the theoretical, carrying the potential to create a positive impact on society.
Dr. Baidya’s educational journey commenced at Shishu Bihar Higher Secondary School in Agartala. He earned his MBBS degree from the Regional Institute of Medical Sciences, Imphal, Manipur, and completed his MD at the same institute in 2012. His quest for knowledge led him to do certifications from prestigious institutions worldwide, including Harvard Medical School, John Hopkins Medical School, American College of Cardiology, American College of Gastroenterology, SAGES, and the Texas Heart Institute.
