READ OR DIEEEEE!!!!!! Thursday, October 2, 2008 at 5:21am

When most people think science, they think empirically, absolutely, with logic and reason. To an individual of science empirical proof must be presented to construct sophisticated theorems of his perceived reality, anything beyond the explanation of this beloved hard cold anchor deems nil importance or is cast aside as being false information. These hard critical thinkers don’t give it a second glance once the facts are down; they are efficiently materialistic and manipulative of the physical realm that is within the grasp of their senses and anything beyond this sense is immeasurable and discarded as pseudoscience. Unforgiving and brutally honest but cunning and resourceful, atomistic and reducing, although absolute and precise, they mean business and are the cutting edge in understanding our physical world. Respectfully on the other side of the spectrum we have the spiritual and religious thinkers, who base their belief system on faith and intuitiveness, concerned with the unseen, the immeasurable subjects that cannot yet be proven by science. These wishful thinkers believe that the ultimate reality is that of inconceivable qualities and cannot be fully sensed with our forms of measurement and understanding, they are blind to believe and Susceptible to exploitation, but are capable of infinite compassion and charity, potential to be overzealous and fundamentally absurd, but offer hope and life with meaning. This phenomenon with the obsession of the unseen is remarkably unique to human beings, are we the most insane species on the planet? Perhaps but with this madness we have acquired we cannot deny the art, beauty and culture that has risen from mans need search for meaning in a cold universe. Both science and spirituality are naturally dualistic enemies of one another because they innately try to debunk and diffuse the other, as different as night and day. But fundamentally I think once again people are failing to realize the duality is just an illusion, like night and day everything governed by this celestial event is affected and it brings about a perfect balance. Sleeping is just as important as being awake no?

As a part of my life goal to see everything with an integral approach brings me to this important issue of science and spirituality. How can both sides make amends to and learn to see the whole picture, integrating aspects of both to create a more unified understanding. To transcend and include is to evolve and reach higher plateaus. Nature has a peculiar way of showing us how opposites attract and create, under the struggle between opposing natures. The normal, healthy, functional, durable existence of everything in Nature depends on the mutual enhancement and beneficial interaction of opposite forces. Day and night; summer and winter; work and rest; man and woman, cock, pussy, Cancer, Capricorn, communist, fascist, Birth is followed eventually by death; economic boom by recession. Opposing this fundamental law of the universe can create severe consequences, and in terms of spirituality and science, violence and ignorance can result. On one level, when there is an antagonistic relationship between opposites this leads to destruction. However, from the larger perspective, the balance of Nature is always maintained. Yin gradually changes into Yang and vice versa, whether advocates of either side like it or not, some sort of medium will be found even if that means is destruction. I like to think progressively and positively as much as I can so I try to push for evolution rather than suppressing it, my libertarian views allow me to view science and spirituality as one entity rather than two separate ones.

Harmoniously the two opposing worldviews can come together, but first each party needs to rid itself of its extreme views that cause unnecessary aggressiveness to towards the opposite. Science needs to accept the possibility that it cannot conclude everything no matter how much testing or observation is done; people also need to realize that human being understanding of the world is limited by our senses; the degree of realities existing beyond detectable means is highly plausible. Science depends on the human experience to make its conclusions thus making it limited within our own limitations, science also needs to add the mapmaker in its complicated form of topography, it fails to recognize that the observer is inescapable from the environment it observes thus influencing the outcome. (see double split experiment http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_rQiF2cRKdc ) on the other hand spirituality needs to rid itself of its tenacious habit of refuting the fact that the omnipotent, unquestionable might of god cant be questioned. (at this point I need to disclose the fact that ive been drinking wine and can now feel the effects) a huge aspect of spirituality and spiritual philosophy is the understanding that many people who seek refuge in enlightenment can become lost in translation and become belligerent choda or taint skins obnoxious at the fact that they are not getting enough attention as the vagina penis or asshole. Folks seriously don’t boast about being spiritually enlightened or you lose all of your cred, and yea, I am pointing at that generation of naïve new age enthusiasts think they know everything about Hinduism, Buddhism, drugs, ect. Sorry to break it to you my fellow trustafarian, but by being proud and boasting you have obtained some sort of spiritual revelation completely refutes the basis of spiritualistic emphasis on being humble. Another major issue that plagues spirituality is the perversion of mainstream religion as a means of control. Its sad to see people being exploited to become extremists because they take the word of god fundamentally, while the man pulling the strings is raking in the cash. My Krishna we live in a fucked up world. But take no heed my collective conscious counterpart, for duality is merely an illusion. The choda furry freeway can actually be happy once and for all once it realizes that it plays a crucial role in connecting the throbbing member to your balloon knot.

To clear some things up, because I believe a vast majority, im talking about all 6,725,000,000 of you people out their need to know the comforting fact that you are in fact your own god. Your mind is the most complicated and powerful thing in the physical universe, it is capable of creating worlds on its own; it can transport you absolutely anywhere you want to go for the mind is infinitely limitless. It all depends on how consciously aware you are by the fact that you are completely in control. The physical realm provides our infinite minds as a ground we can always return to, unfortunately most of us stay here and choose not to explore the beautiful limitless worlds of inner space. Now there is absolutely nothing wrong with this, for the integral approach encompasses everything in the goal to create a comprehensive integral philosophy of life and reality. But collectively we must strive to include everything but once again transcend and co create the unfolding will of the universe. Rejoice people, YOU are the universe, there is no such thing as other, no dualities there is only the one. Nor good or evil, it just IS. Acceptance is the first step but it also is the greatest leap. Nothing lasts but nothing is forgotten, the human epic occupies but a wisp of the grand scheme. Oh woe is I for humanity you inflict deep wounds of pain, suffering and disappointment within my weary soul. But I fucking love you. From nothingness, to matter, to life, to mind, to higher consciousness and beyond, let us continue this evolutionary process wherever it may take us.
