Prof.Dr. Sir Lakshman Madurasinghe

Attorney; MSc., PhD., LLD., D Litt

Pioneer of e-Consciousness and Global Thought Leader

Prof. Lakshman Madurasinghe is a visionary scholar, lawyer, behavioral scientist, and global strategist whose revolutionary philosophy of e-Consciousness inspires individuals to transcend ego-driven thinking and awaken their true potential. With a heart-centered approach to living, he advocates a transformative shift from mind to heart, fostering a life of love, learning, laughter, and enlightened living. As a pioneer in consciousness studies, he believes that expanded awareness and heart coherence will define the 5th Industrial Revolution, shaping a future of infinite possibilities. Through his work, Prof. Lakshman bridges science, spirituality, and culture, creating a lasting impact on individuals and communities worldwide.

Early Foundations and Education

Born in Sri Lanka, Prof. Lakshman’s journey began at the prestigious S. Thomas’ College, Mt. Lavinia, one of the country’s most influential schools, founded in 1851. Immersed in a vibrant, multi-cultural environment, he embraced an ethos of universal dignity, laying the foundation for his later work in interfaith dialogue and human rights. Excelling in the bioscience stream, he completed his GCE Advanced Level and pursued legal studies, being called to the Bar in October 1976. His academic curiosity led him to win a government scholarship to study Comparative Industrial Relations in Japan, marking the start of a global academic career.

Prof. Lakshman’s graduate, postgraduate, and postdoctoral studies spanned the UK, USA, and beyond, covering law, psychology, business studies, theology, comparative religions, Vedic science, and quantum consciousness. His doctoral dissertation at Azteca University explored the Neurophysiological Correlates of Altered States of Consciousness, a seminal work in behavioral science. He also holds a postdoctoral fellowship from Amity, USA, and submitted theses on The Act of State Doctrine in Anglo-American Courts and Sovereign Rights of States in International Nuclear Law for his LLD. A lifelong learner, he is a Life Member of prestigious associations, including the Cambridge University Society, British Scholars Association, and Royal Asiatic Society of Sri Lanka.

Pioneering e-Consciousness and Neuroscience

At the heart of Prof. Lakshman’s philosophy is e-Consciousness, a transformative model that integrates expanded awareness with heart coherence. He founded the Brain Technology and Neuroscience Research Centre (BTNRC) to advance scientific inquiry into neuroscience, psychology, parapsychology, and consciousness. The BTNRC conducts cutting-edge research, exploring the frontiers of brain technology and human potential, positioning Prof. Lakshman as a thought leader in the post-COVID era.

His explorations in quantum consciousness and cosmology brought him into contact with luminaries like Prof. Stephen Hawking, with whom he interacted during a 1995 lecture at Gonville & Caius College, Cambridge, discussing A Brief History of Time. As Country Director of Maharishi University in Sri Lanka, he facilitated satellite-based educational programs and organized a 2000 National Conference at the Hilton, attended by 50 scientists. His work with Maharishi European Research University and collaborations with scientists like John Hagelin and Tony Nader deepened his understanding of Vedic science and unified field theory.

Contributions to Vedic Studies and Ayurveda

A certified practitioner of Ayurveda and bioenergetics, Prof. Lakshman trained under Dr. David Frawley (Pandit Vamadeva Shastri) at the American Institute of Vedic Studies. This comprehensive training in Ayurvedic anatomy, psychology, and spiritual methods informs his holistic approach to consciousness. He integrates Vedic principles with modern science, emphasizing the interconnectedness of body, mind, and spirit. His work aligns with Dr. Frawley’s seminal texts, such as Ayurvedic Healing: A Comprehensive Guide, and has earned him recognition as a Vedic scholar in India and the West.

Prof. Lakshman’s studies in bioplasma and Kirlian photography, inspired by Prof. Victor Inyushin, further enriched his research into bio-energy and consciousness. His deep meditation practice, honed under Godwin Samarasinghe at Nilambe and Peradeniya University, complements his scientific inquiry, creating a unique synthesis of ancient wisdom and modern innovation.

Comparative Religions and Interfaith Dialogue

A passionate scholar of theology and comparative religions, Prof. Lakshman has made significant contributions to interfaith understanding. His research on Sin vs. Suffering, comparing Buddhagosha’s Visuddhimagga (5th-century Theravada Buddhist doctrine) with Karl Barth’s Dogmatics (1932–1967), is a landmark study that fosters dialogue between Buddhism and Christianity. Published in academic journals and presented at global conferences, this work highlights his ability to bridge philosophical divides.

He has also explored Islamic jurisprudence, examining the authenticity of Quranic manuscripts and engaging with scholars like Ahmed Deedat to promote clarity and mutual respect. His interactions with Bhikkhu Bodhi and Gnanaponika at the Buddhist Hermitage, Kandy, further shaped his understanding of Buddhist philosophy. As the author of an encyclopedic volume on Buddhism and Christianity, available at the University of Peradeniya, Prof. Lakshman continues to inspire students and researchers. His 2007 review of Pope Benedict’s encyclical Spe Salvi Facti Sumus in the Asian Tribune underscores his engagement with contemporary theology.

Global Leadership and Theological Education

In 1990, Prof. Lakshman founded the International Institute of Theological Studies (IITS) in the Arabian Gulf, training Christian leaders who now serve globally. IITS evolved into MESA GST and Hebron University, operating under the Global Apostolic Diocese, USA, which represents 20,000 churches and 5 million members. As Head of the Judicial and Archbishops’ Councils, he shapes ecclesiastical governance with integrity and vision. His training at the Haggai International Institute for Advanced Leadership Training, USA, where he became the first Asian Watson Scholar, equipped him to teach systematic theology, eschatology, and comparative religions as an international faculty member.

Cultural and Archaeological Contributions

Deeply connected to Sri Lankan heritage, Prof. Lakshman has contributed to research on ancient culture, language, and literature. He participated in the Beli Lena archaeological project with Prof. Jayasuriya and Dr. Siran Deraniyagala, exploring the healing practices of Homo Sapiens Balangodensis. His collaboration with Dr. Diane Hawkey on dental morphology revealed connections between modern Vedda populations and Sri Lanka’s prehistoric inhabitants. He has also studied the evolution of the Sinhala script, developing a Brahmi-inspired phonetic script used as an encryption tool for confidential communication.

His 2011 lecture on Sri Lankan history and culture, accessible on Scribd, reflects his commitment to preserving and sharing the nation’s heritage. Prof. Lakshman’s work on the Mahawamsa and Ravana underscores his fascination with Sri Lanka’s ancient narratives and their relevance today.

A Legacy of Impact

A prolific author, Prof. Lakshman has published four books, including Clinical Psychology and Buddhism and Christianity, alongside numerous research papers and articles. His global lectures on human rights, unified field theory, therapeutic jurisprudence, and counseling psychology have inspired diverse audiences. As a member of the Cambridge University Society, British Scholars Association, and JICA Alumni Association, he remains connected to a network of global intellectuals.

Prof. Lakshman’s vision is rooted in a lifelong quest to harmonize science, spirituality, and culture. “The heart is the key to unlocking our infinite potential,” he says, inviting individuals to embrace e-Consciousness for personal and societal transformation. His work continues to shape the fields of neuroscience, theology, and cultural studies, leaving a legacy of enlightenment and unity.
