THE SCIENCE OF SPIRITUALITY
A Technical Outline of a Spiritual Philosophy of Science.
by Walter Last
One of our most fundamental mental challenges is to reconcile our scientific understanding of the world with our spiritual experiences and beliefs. There must be a unity at a higher level of reality, despite the outer appearances to the contrary. What are matter, energy, spirit, consciousness, and time? In the following I have outlined my answers to these questions.
The endeavors of conventional science focus only on material and technological aspects of our lives, and largely ignore other areas of vital interest to many of us, such as natural therapies, psychic phenomena, UFO’s, subtle energies and free energy generation, the multitude of anomalies and unexplained phenomena, as well as the whole area of spirituality and consciousness. A main reason for this is the absence of a plausible theory linking science and consciousness that makes these subjects understandable in scientific terms.
Present physics theories of everything are only concerned with physics, based on the mechanistic belief that biology and consciousness are just appendices of physics. What if it is the other way around? The following theory will show that physics can be much better understood as a product of consciousness. Equally with additional dimensions: mathematical constructs assume a great number of additional dimensions without the slightest indication what an additional dimension might actually look like.
I suggest that physics should start investigating paranormal or supernatural phenomena. Then it would soon find out what a real additional dimension is. Therefore, any so-called theory of everything that does not include consciousness and the paranormal is incomplete as well as seriously flawed.
However, such a unified theory of everything is possible by assuming that we are immersed in an additional dimension in a very direct and noticeable way. Furthermore, this will also allow a logical and unified understanding of many aspects of science, such as quantum physics, that are presently unintelligible except mathematically. With this, we have the foundation of a New Physics and a New Science. This will allow science to move from focusing on the material universe to a spiritual science investigating the totality of our existence.
This article explores mainly the spiritual aspects of a unified theory of everything, for a discussion of scientific and especially physical and cosmological aspects see ENERGY AND MATTER IN FIVE DIMENSIONS.
