Is KRSNA Consciousness the most counter-intuitive science???

Is KC the ultimate non-material science that brings one to go beyond material sentimental reasoning to the platform of the soul proper ,with real rasa experiences???

 

 

Counter-intuitive

 

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

<!-- start content -->A counter-intuitive proposition is one that does not seem likely to be true when assessed using intuition or gut feelings.

Scientifically discovered, objective truths are often called counter-intuitive when intuition, emotions, and other cognitive processes outside of deductive rationality interpret them to be wrong. However, the subjective nature of intuition limits the objectivity of what to call counter-intuitive because what is counter-intuitive for one may be intuitive for another.

Flawed understanding of a problem may lead to counter-productive behavior with undesirable outcomes. In some such cases, counter-intuitive policies may then produce a more desirable outcome. For example, a policy of catching large fish and throwing back small ones so may be counter-productive. In response to that policy, evolutionary pressure may select for small fish. A counter-intuitive improvement may be to catch only medium sized fish, leaving the biggest free to breed, creating evolutionary pressure for fish to grow quickly through the medium size.<SUP class=reference id=_ref-0>[1]</SUP>

[edit] Counter-intuitive ideas in science

 

Many scientific ideas that are generally accepted by people today were formerly considered to be contrary to intuition and common sense.

For example, most everyday experience suggests that the Earth is flat; actually, this view turns out to be a remarkably good approximation to the true state of affairs, which is that the Earth is a very big spheroid. Furthermore, prior to the Copernican revolution, heliocentrism, the belief that the Earth goes around the Sun, rather than vice versa, was considered to be contrary to common sense.

The Michelson-Morley experiment sought to measure the velocity of the Earth through the aether as it revolved around the Sun. The result was that it has no ether velocity at all. Relativity theory later explained the results, replacing the conventional notions of ether and separate space, time, mass, and energy with a counter-intuitive four-dimensional non-Euclidean universe.

I'd answer the question with a "yes".

 

However, whether KC is counter-intuitive is another question. Intuition is not strictly-inborn. Perhaps we have a "default" intuition, but, intuition is and can be developed in a similar manner as are muscles.

 

If we study mathematics, we will develop mathematical intuition. If we study KC, we will develop KC intuition.

 

That said, while the science of KC is, indeed, very scientific, wouldn't you agree there is no requirement on the Lord to act according any science whatsoever?
