Religion and science – gateways to spiritual and physical reality

We must master both the physical and the spiritual reality.

We are questioning beings with a natural desire to understand and make sense of the world in which we live.

People ask questions like:

  • Why does the sun rise and set?
  • When will it rain?
  • Why isn’t it raining?
  • How can we make it rain?
  • Why is there a universe?
  • Why do people suffer?
 
 

Religion and science

In order to find answers to such questions and make sense of the world in which we live, religion, science and philosophy developed. Originally, they were not divided. The first astronomers were priests. Medicine men were both prophets and physicians. They strove for an integrated explanation.
