Classical Science Challenged

'No i don't, i believe in science and not in god.' It is not too much of a stretch to expect this answer if anybody is asked 'do you believe in god." I was one of them. I was training myself to believe only in empirical stuffs, something that can be testified, can be experimented, can be observed...and so forth, to discern only those things as valid and true which can exactly accomodate itself to the parameters of positivistic science. But now it remains challenged. The reality, lets say supreme reality is still out of line with the realms of classical science. And its not the spirituality questioned here but its the science that has yet to traverse the dimensions of 'spiritual reality' and lend a momentum to its 'measurement' version of science. Yeah not a small potato! Quantum physics must be exploring in those untrodded areas.

Truly, the world is so interconnected. 'Touch the rose and stars will be shaken' goes the saying. Whatever goes back is bound to come back!

Sometimes i chew it over if it gives meaning to relate this reciprocity with our traditional 'pitriarpan' too? It is conceived in spirituality that two objects if they have a common origin, will always remain to effect one another regardless of how far (light years) they are. A human body since built up of 'panchatatwa' - earth, fire, water, light and sky(sound) ends up in the same universe even after death (or from the standoint of universe, does this living or dead makes any difference) and so I wonder whether or not this 'pitriarpan' has anything to do with rendering positive impact to the 'dead' 'pitri', and vice versa, the giver and the receptor, by the rule, are rooted in the same origin. We tend to find myriads of such rites and rituals with one or the other scientific reasons behind . And all these waves of questions put my head in a whirl!

Unfortunately, we have failed to grasp the immense values of our own heritage and philosophies. We have accepted to be colonized and are accustomed to perceiving the world with the western eye to the extent our own wealth has remained our of sight. We should respect our matchless spiritual heritage. In similar vein, I staunchly opine they have the wonderful answers to the questions sorrounding life, universe and every other thing that concerns us. Making spirituality, meditation and yoga, routine of the day adds to our being and no wonder its propels us closer and closer to the 'true science'.

Spirituality and science in the truest of their terms, differ only in their approaches and not in findings. I bet!
