Religious Science or Scientific Religion?

A physical scientist does not introduce awareness (sensation or perception) into his theories, and having thus removed the mind from nature, he cannot expect to find it there.

—Erwin Schrödinger, Mind and Matter

Whenever a belief system ignores the question, the problem, the miracle of human perception, it ignores life, denies existence, and abdicates self-awareness—the very thing which makes us human.

For any science and philosophy, the question is not whether reality is in-dependent or not of our perception. The question is why we should be perceiving at all in the first place.

And wondering about it too.

This is the human question, the meaning of self-awareness—this is what science must now answer.

And then it will become what it has always sought to be.
