I particularly love your sentence: "What makes the scientific method so beautiful and democratic is that if something is reliably observed, it must be explained whether it suits dogma or not." yet I'm not sure people are so willing to try to explain what does not suit dogma. Do you really ? Would love to know your thoughts.<br /><br />And that's one of the things I would have loved to discuss today with you -- this is Javi, hopefully inviting in some of those parts of Javi that know more about Javi than Javi :)<br /><br />When you talked about the puppet (conscious part / ego) and the master puppet (unconscious / self), I thought that Science has probably been built over the shoulders of the puppet, and that even though it tries to ask questions to the master puppet and claims it has a refined a method for reliable Q&A... things might not really work in that way.<br /><br />Have you read "The Structure of the Scientific Revolutions" by Thomas Kuhn ? Maybe there isn't such a thing as "normal science" and it's all more about evolution than it is about revolutions, but I feel that the scientific method is quite more based on dogma that we've been told or would like to believe (of course Rupert Sheldrake's "The Science Delusion" comes to mind here now too).<br /><br />Ah... one more thing ! I encourage you to send that beautiful dream to the person I told you about today (the dream analyst). I reckon you might be in for a LOVEly surprise !<br /><br />(Don't want to make explicit publicity here so can send you her details via email if you wish)<br /><br />Loved meeting you !Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05733489696902172143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1674559012941123138.post-70722991065716862342015-11-01T18:09:42.124-08:002015-11-01T18:09:42.124-08:00Hi Sky!

Totally agree that we have to shake things up and be willing to let our cherished hypotheses fall away.<br /><br />Groove on!<br /><br />JuliaJulia Mossbridgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18435122108337030063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1674559012941123138.post-12016159956799657952015-10-30T17:11:57.888-07:002015-10-30T17:11:57.888-07:00This is a beautiful post.

Science does indeed have its own prescription for healing, but I think your metaphor is wonderful... in order to use that very prescription, we have to be willing to change, be revealed to new truths, and shake things up. I love your point of truth is always being revealed...i think many scientists approach the world from a very non-inspired place of "There is a finite amount to know, and we are almost there...!!!" (pant pant pant) and they get tired and impatient.Sky Nelsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01426578593828195807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1674559012941123138.post-20453642191977323292014-09-10T08:14:58.626-07:002014-09-10T08:14:58.626-07:00I love how your bring up that without mysticism, r...I love how your bring up that without mysticism, religion become stiff and dead. Like a tree that is still standing, but no longer alive. It seems that science, when it's alive, thrives on the openness to see, and that means seeing things that don't support how you think things are. That seems closer to the truth because I don't think life is figure-out-able. Like you can understand it. That seems to be the booby-prize. But that pure, unprejudiced seeing seems to be the healing you spoke about. Thanks for making me look at things bigger than usual!Brooks_Palmerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02966569708585349904noreply@blogger.com
