Science & Religion
Because the philosophical premises of science and religion deeply permeate modern-day culture, these forces influence our unconscious presumptions—about what is real and true, and about the purpose of human life. This is why Avatar Adi Da spoke and wrote extensively about science and religion, considering especially the error that is common to both: that there is a separate “self” (or ego) that can either “know” or “believe”. In fact, He says, “Truth Itself . . . Awakens when all the ego-based and ego-serving alternatives are—with ego itself—all and Perfectly out-grown.”
