What if science and spirituality have been by no means meant to be at odds—however quite two eyes that assist us see actuality in its entirety?
One eye—Science reveals the exterior world: the construction of atoms, the dance of galaxies, and the intricate legal guidelines of physics. It teaches us how issues perform, from the smallest quarks to the huge cosmos. The opposite eye—Spirituality unveils the interior world: the character of consciousness, the mysteries of existence, and the rhythms of karma and dharma.
