POPSIndian President's Sufi ideas Oddly, India's mystic minded Muslim President was also the father of the Indian Nuclear Bomb... shades of Oppenheimer. From Wikipedia: Oppenheimer later recalled that while witnessing the explosion he thought of a verse from the Hindu holy book, the Bhagavad Gita: " If the radiance of a thousand suns were to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the mighty one... " Years later he would explain that another verse had also entered his head at that time: "We knew the world would not be the same. A few people laughed, a few people cried, most people were silent. I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita. Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty and to impress him takes on his multi-armed form and says, 'Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.' I suppose we all thought that one way or another."
