For ages there has been an
esoteric prophecy: that in a great historical climax to
come, science and religion would unite in exaltation of
one great Truth. As
we approach the millennium, in every area of human
endeavor, there is indeed interest in a very general
concern. Whether the conversation turns to relationships,
medicine, spirituality, business, science, or anything
else, there is at least a faint hint of an eternal
message making it's way into consciousness:
underlying oneness, spirit, and love.
Jane Katra and Russell
Targ have looked at two specific areasscience and
spiritualitywith the cold eye of the scientist and
the warm heart of the mystic. They have applied
tough-minded scientific observation to the ralms of
spirit, laying out for the most rationalistic thinker
some profound musings on issues of faith. In this
exciting new book, Katra and Targ posit spirituality as a
new scientific frontier. Applying the most disciplined
investigative techniques, scientist throughout the
world have now made clear that we need no longer treat
faith as blind; it has revealed itself, at least, to the
regions of the mind formerly unable to grasp its
implications. Katra and Targ have helped to unlock the
long-locked door between the rooms of science and the
rooms of God.
Like a great pyramyid as
it reaches toward its single-pointed capstone, all
seperate issues in life are resolved in one great higher
truth. Whether our movement is through the spiritual
rigor of prayer or the mental rigor of science, the
uppermost end of the journey is the love of God. So say
some already: after reading this book, many more will
agree. Join them.
One doesn't have to
believe in any religion or buy into any dogma.
Scientifically minded, rational eyes will do, for Katra
and Targ have made sure of it. They hold a candle up for
everyone, and in its light is revealed a much expanded,
more unified world within and without. Every road is a
mountain road, and there turns out to be only one
mountain.
The peak, as you shall
see in this book, is spectacularscientifically
sound as well as absolutely miraculous. Katra and Targ
provide a wonderful view.
