Merge science and spirituality to live a sane life: Quotes and inspired Haiku

 Merge science and spirituality to live a sane life: Quotes and inspired Haiku ~Lalit Kishore

QUOTES

Our scientific power has outrun our spiritual power. We have guided missiles and misguided men. ~Martin Luther King, Jr.

  • Science is not only compatible with spirituality; it is a profound source of spirituality. When we recognize our place in an immensity of light-years and in the passage of ages, when we grasp the intricacy, beauty, and subtlety of life, then that soaring feeling, that sense of elation and humility combined, is surely spiritual ..The notion that science and spirituality are somehow mutually exclusive does a disservice to both. ~Carl Sagan

  • The individual, if left alone from birth would remain primitive and beast-like in his thoughts and feelings to a degree that we can hardly conceive. The individual is what he is and has the significance that he has not so much in virtue of his individuality, but rather as a member of a great human society, which directs his material and spiritual existence from the cradle to the grave. ~ Albert Einstein

In Spiritual Science

Go for processes–n-actions

To raise consciousness

It is through process

Of self-knowing, awareness dawns

Insights awaken

Teach subject matter 

Thro’ divine intelligence

Deeming yourself soul

Make mind scientific

Make your mind spiritual too

To live life blissfully
