Can science and mysticism come together?
If you are like me, there will be people in your life whose values and beliefs are science and measurement based. Everything has to have a rationale and process rather than just accepting something and being. They might find your spiritual views and practices uncomfortable and perhaps a little strange.
I was heartened to read this article on Albert Einstein, a famous scientist, who seems to have been more spiritual than many realise. He recognises that we could never fully understand the workings of the world within the limitations of the human mind. Experiencing the universe as a harmonious whole, he encouraged the use of intuition to solve problems, marvelled at the mystery of God in nature, and applauded the ideals of great spiritual teachers such as Buddha and Jesus.
