Guest guest Posted February 29, 2000 Report Share Posted February 29, 2000 Greetings, Maybe it is time to re-visit John Dobson's Advaita & Modern Science, and point out any errors in his conclusions. http://www.geocities.com/SoHo/Cafe/9535/Vedanta/side.htm Regards, sunder >"Vivekananda Centre" <vivekananda >advaitin >"edith tipple" <edtipple, "Self Knowledge List" ><selfknow-l, "list" <ramakrishna > > Re: Question about 'economical way to explain' >Tue, 29 Feb 2000 23:49:21 -0000 > > > >- >EDTipple <edtipple >Vivekananda Centre <vivekananda >29 February 2000 23:05 >Re: Website at Univ of California > > > > Dear Jay, > > > > I absolutely agree that a collection of "transcendental experiences" > > cannot be the key for finding links between Science and Spirituality -- > > but it is a first step of acknowledging the possibility that there is > > something beyond the material. > >Very true - this can just be used as an indicator (nothing more). > > > You say a more direct approach which can show the findings of science in > > a more economical manner through spiritual findings is the way science > > and spirituality can be linked.

Scientists call this Occam's Razor. At the moment Science seems to be struggling in trying to unite two major branches called Quantum Mechanics and General Relativity. The only way they hope to do this is by using very complicated mathematics in 10, sometimes 11 or 16 dimensions. This does not appear right (not economical) - something seems to be seriously missing. 'Economical reconciliation of these two major branches' is what I am referring to. A very tall order. This century should bring this about using an explanation based on spiritual findings. (I live in hope!). jay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
