Science and Spirituality Will One Day Converge

“I see a clock, but I cannot envision the clock maker. The human mind is unable to conceive of the four dimensions, so how can it conceive of a God, before whom a thousand years and a thousand dimensions are as one?”
- Albert Einstein

Ensconced in the trappings of our modern world, we often make the assumption that mankind has been progressing in a linear fashion – where our ancestors knew less about the world, than we do today. But reality could not be farther from the truth. Like the seasons, all progressions have an element of cyclicality, and sometimes while we may progress heavily in one direction, we also regress substantially in another.

So it is not true that science alone is everything and that spirituality is nothing, or that spirituality alone is true and that all science is false, rather the two are set to meet because they are both the quest for truth, the quest for self-discovery. Both are on the path of knowledge, one for the truths governing our outer material world and the other for truths governing our inner world of consciousness. Moreover, these two paths are not contradictory, but they run in the same direction, and will one day converge, when science discovers the one element that unifies all Creation – God.
