Science and Spirituality

Question 1:  The Persian psychotherapist, Reza Arasteh, working in USA, made the uncomfortable suggestion in the 1960’s that, “The subject of research projects is partly related to the character structure of the researcher. Accordingly, unless the investigator has reached a mature stage of personal development, he or she is unlikely to feel any incentive for researching the topic, or even be capable of fully comprehending it.”  In what ways do we need to our personal development to mature to become competent researchers?

Question 2:  Can research and spiritualism exist in a common lens?

Question 3:  To undertake scientific investigation, you have to start with an idea, with some intuition about what to look into and where you might begin to find answers. Science, in other words, begets creativity.   In what ways does science beget creativity?
