Science, Spirituality and Evolution

About the Book

Science, Spirituality and Evolution is an attempt to highlight the spiritual potential within the recent and on-going discoveries in both the science of the quantum world and the science of the larger Cosmos. Science is now confirming what the mystics in former ages taught us. Somehow, these mystics, through silence and meditation, were able to discern and touch deep truths about what existence means. Abstract Algebra, which was once perceived as purely abstract with no practical application, is now at the heart of explaining existence within the quantum world. Thus mathematics, science and spirituality are just different faces of the same reality. This small booklet ‘Science, Spirituality and Evolution’ merely introduces different aspects of this one reality which the author hopes to develop in more detail in further booklets.
