Introduction
The
foundation of New Age science is the conviction that evolution is a good thing.
This philosophy places more emphasis on mankind going upward into an era of
higher consciousness than it does on biological development. According to
cosmic humanists, everything is ultimately energy, which will enable
individuals to unite with others in a form of collective awareness.
"Evolution is a light illuminating all facts, a curve that all lines must
follow," says Pierre Teilhard de Chardin. The human race learns that they
are nothing more than evolution becoming aware of itself. This article will
examine this phenomenon in-depth along with evolution and some of science's
limitations.
New Age Science
The
admiration that New Age philosophy holds for contemporary science is one of its
distinguishing features. Considering that New Agers frequently mistrust and
reject academic rationalism, this may initially appear odd. The conflict is
merely visible, though. Since they are understood in ways that validate a
spiritual worldview and because they might be used as tools to undermine the
current scientific Consensus, modern scientific breakthroughs are appealing to
New Age concerns for two key reasons.
Social
science literature frequently discusses the connection between New Age and
science. These analyses stress the connection's historical roots by
highlighting the contributions of scholars and researchers to the
countercultural movements that led directly to the New Age movement and
concentrating on the kinds of scientific theories that appeal to New Agers.
It's crucial to emphasize that "the New Age interest in science has many
features, such as aspirations in everything from Facets of current science like
modern physics, to quasi-mainstream practices like holistic health, To marginal
fields of study like UFOlogy, and occult "sciences" like
numerology" in both cases (Lewis 2007) Read More.... price/$0.99
