Our Universe is full of grandeur with awe-inspiring vastness, brightness, and darkness. All the spectacular large-scale structures we enjoy and wonder about in our clear night sky can be described by the magic of math and logic, which we call Theoretical Physics. From the dawn of the 19th century, our quest through theoretical physics (of course, with the help of experiments and observations) has revealed astonishing secrets of nature from the subatomic scale to galactic and even cosmological scales. This has transformed and transcended humankind both scientifically and culturally, adding an additional shine to our beautiful pale blue dot in our seemingly endless cosmos.

Here I stand on the shoulders of brilliant minds and trying hard to understand and resolve the biggest questions we have about the Universe, nature of gravity, and matter at high energy scales. Join me in my journey of passion, hard work, and obsession with Theoretical High Energy Physics (THEP), Cosmology and Astrophysics
Books and References
Here I constantly share interesting books and advanced materials for gaining vast knowledge and finding interesting motivations in theoretical physics.

One article that motivates me all the time is the one written by legendary physicist and nobel laureate Prof. Steven Weinberg https://www.nature.com/articles/426389a.

The most important developments of understanding gravity beyond Einstein's GR happened through the discovery of conformaly anomaly. For further details, read an amazing arXiv article written by Prof. M J Duff (https://arxiv.org/abs/hep-th/9308075) and the Scholarpedia article written by Prof. A. O. Barvinsky.

The book named as "Impossibility: The Limits of Science and the Science of Limits" written by late Prof. John D. Barrow is an eye-opening view on past, current and future advancements of science.
