After several thousand years of blind, top-down doctrine, followed by almost a thousand years of intensely rational, scientific exploration, we’ve come to realize that neither the metaphorical poetry of the mystics nor the precision and logic of the scientists can adequately describe our experience or what it means to be alive in this vast, immeasurable universe.
In the sunrise of a new millenia, we’re beginning to realize that we need both.
We are in the age of integration.
An age where we must learn how to mesh these two complimentary (though we often mistakenly think of them as “opposing”) perspectives, in order to paint a fuller, deeper, more compelling picture of ourselves and the vibrant universe we find ourselves in.
