Science And Life
We talk of Science, that which has been active as a mechanism of study for under three hundred years. The scientific bend of thought is a very recent approach. Yet in Vedic times, man had explored life in all its vastness through the eyes of higher intelligence. A Scientific bent of mind is limiting to the extent that science talks about a subject and an object. Thus science can only have objective answers because it studies the world as an object.
Science doesn't seem to be worried about the subject, the observer. This is a grave error of so-called scientific temperament. Vedanta has always worried about the subject. In recent times, strangely in the field of Quantum Mechanics science alludes that it is the subject, through his mere observation, who influences the object and thereby influences the outcome of the experiment. Hello, is this the science we are all proud of?
