Scientific method, inspiration, consciousness – all of them work together to bring scientists to the point of discovery and sharing their work with the world.”

“Everyone has the inherent urge to find out who they are. The metaphysical experiences allow one to recognize their creative power. Our education systems don’t teach us to recognize our innate powers.”

“What are the biomedical sciences and the scientists working in them doing in terms of helping or hindering this future goal of humanity? Are we in service to humanity’s future advancement or not?” I was aware that the vast majority of the scientific endeavor is highly materialistic, with metaphysical and mystical considerations outright rejected as nonexistent; love itself is considered only an emotion and even then, not routinely studied.

Yet, I also knew there were biomedical scientists, including some of my own colleagues, working within the mainstream sciences who have deeper spiritual understandings of who we are as people and of the conscious universe at large. I also knew that many of them were working in their own way to bridge the so-called “gap between science and spirituality.” They were working to overcome the materialism and its choking effects on the progress of the sciences that could ultimately help support a future spiritual life of humanity.”
