(by Karmayogi)
v
Science started as a counter movement to
superstition. It was the birth of the Mind against the tyrannical rule of the vital.
The instrument of Science is Mind, which sees the whole of life as represented
by the parts of good and evil. As it identifies itself with what it sees, Mind
becomes the part. No wonder its knowledge is of the part, partial. Its only
fullness is the wholeness of a part.
v
Exceptions arise when someone in one plane ignores
the other planes. No law has an exception. That which permits exceptions
is a part. The whole is a whole and there is nothing outside it to claim
exception.
v
A law that fails one in a million times is NO LAW.
v
One occurrence, even if isolated, demands the
attention of the observer. It is no observation that ignores the rare event.
v
Theory of creation has no exception at all.
Observing from there, the view is all-inclusive. Exception is lack of
application.
v
There are grades, but exceptions are non-existing
for that which is exceptional.
v
The word science means knowledge of the conscient.
The scientist is subjective, not conscious of the outside. His objectivity is
the objectivity of subjectivity.
v
The failure of the scientist is understandable. His
insistence on his failure as the ONLY success is unpardonable.
v
Events occurring
simultaneously is called synchronicity. Those who have observed that
phenomenon must endeavour to explain it. Life is a whole,
our understanding is of the part. Unless our understanding rises to the
whole, it will cease to be understanding.
v
Science by its birth, by its instrument, by its
self-definition, but its attitude, by its lack of a goal of the whole, by its
own subjectivity in the name of objectivity, by its incomplete observation, by
its acquiescence in its ignoring the observed rare phenomenon, by its lack of
motivation to reach knowledge that is Power, by its losing itself in the
instruments it has created is now playing the role of superstition which it has
come to replace, proving the age-old rule of the conqueror conquered by the
conquered.
v
All progress arose in humanity only when partial
knowledge embraced a wider part, a movement towards the whole. Knowledge
must seek the whole; it is not enough to move towards a greater part.
v
Science does not begin with experiments. If begins
with thinking. Science swears by objective knowledge, forgetting that objective
facts have validity only in subjective comprehension. The mind is not outside,
but inside. Let Science define all its concepts and establish itself as a
branch of knowledge.
v
Ignorance is permissible; stupidity is not, unless
stupidity is defined as partial knowledge of a will of the part that tries to
usurp the will of the whole.
v
Why reductionism? What is the rationale of
reductionism? If it is justified, why not reduce Matter into consciousness.
Obviously Matter and Consciousness are two parts of a greater whole. The search
for the whole is knowledge.
v
Let us look at all phenomena from the point of view
of a part or a whole. Our aim should be to move to the whole, not the part.
v
The occult world exists, not only subtle phenomenon.
It is necessary for us to know the occult and the subtle. Is not science itself
occult?
v
We must found the Science of Life, Science of Mind
and Science of Spirit so that Science will emerge including Matter, Life, Mind
and Spirit.
v
One way to approach the question is to take up
unresolved issues of every branch and approach them from the partial and total
view. Whichever view yields greater results must be accepted and the other
discarded.
v
Science cannot insist on being irrational.
v
She has to establish her credentials to rationality.
v
She must define rationality and live up to that.
v
Science that is not rational is not worth its name.
v Science cannot
and should not serve anti-human causes. It has no right to be inhuman,
anti-life. She has no right to serve evil. Evil is to be eradicated. If science
insists on serving evil, its claim must be denied and destroyed.
