"Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds." He was a BIG fan of the Vades, this line he took directly from the Bhagavad Gita. Some say the technology came out of ancient manuscripts including this one.
I heard the same and checked out the different versions myself.
This Source I had found while researching said he had a private teacher, whick I didn't know.
The "Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds" line, spoken to the prince Arjuna by Krishna (not Vishnu, although Krishna is an avatar of Vishnu), is usually translated differently. Oppenheimer's Sanskrit teacher, Arthur Ryder, translated it as "Death am I, and my present task. / Destruction." Most translations tend to translate it as "time" or "terrible time." Either way, the point is the same:
And "some say" would be complete fools. It was all physics, discovered and verified in laboratories. Oppenheimer was an excellent physicist. All the big names were involved (many, if not most, were Jewish).
Complete nonsense. The physics was under way since 1938 when the fission reaction was discovered. No ancient texts. Mostly cyclotrons and large-scale experiments. No ancient texts. You really ought to learn the history. This has nothing to do with Nazi wild-goose-chase activities.
The physics was always known, and recorded. And the Ahnenerbe searched out and provided the manuscripts to give the Germans the advantage especially in rocketry.

Apparently he misquoted it.
It's not Death, it's Time.
There are a few English translations, Ive seen it both ways. So hard to say if it was that way in his.
Fair enough. I'd just always heard that he misquoted it to use Death instead of Time.
Both work well, of course.

They drew their information from many ancient texts of Mystery Babylon, same reason the Nazi's went looking for them.
