Advaita is the rational truth uncontradictable truth and scientific truth. This scientific truth of the whole was declared by Sage Sankara 1200 years ago and imparted only to those of higher intellect who are receptive.

The Advaitic orthodoxy has to be discarded to realize the ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth.

Sage Sankara: ~ VC "All this universe which through ignorance appears as of diverse forms, is nothing else but Brahman (consciousness) which is absolutely free from all the limitations of human thought.

It is this Supreme Oneness which alone is real since there is nothing else but the ‘Self’. Verily, there remains no other independent entity in the state of realization of the highest Truth."

Max Planck ~Father of quantum physics says: ~ Science has no answer to it. Science cannot solve the ultimate mystery of nature. And that is because, in the last analysis, we are part of the mystery that we are trying to solve.

Mundaka Upanishad 1.3:~ Complete knowledge includes knowledge of the phenomenal world, the spirit behind it, and the source of both of them. When the cause of all causes becomes known, then everything knowable becomes known, and nothing remains unknown is Gnana.”

The battle is between scientific attitude and religious faith. The scientific spirit requires that one has to accept nothing as truth unless it can be verified by experiment. Scientific inquiry is to disprove the hypothesis not buttress it. Science rewrites its textbooks all the time.

In stark contrast, religious texts are sacred; they are untenable. Science holds a hypothesis untrue if it does not satisfy even one out of a hundred conditions. For faithful belief is sanctified even if comes true only once in a thousand times.

In the modern age, the proposition that science will replace faith has become an attractive one. Much that was a mystery earlier has now been rationalized through scientific discoveries. Inevitably many more mysteries of the present also will be explained in the years to come. But science has its limitations. For example, it can theories how the universe began with the Big Bang, but not explain what agency caused it.

Scientific theories also are fickle. Science propagates knowledge; it does not necessarily confirm wisdom.

There is no scientific proof that God exists; neither is there any proof that god does not exist. That is where rational drift outside the scientific path. They make assertions about matters of faith, forgetting their own principles. They can say at the most there is no proof of God's existence. They cannot proceed further and assert that god does not exist because it is impossible to verify through scientific experiments.

The ignorant populace believes in God's existence but they are unaware of what God suppose to be in truth. Blind belief in religions leads to wars and terrorism. Admittedly, there is at any one time, far greater unanimity about scientific truths but those truths are merely hypotheses liable to be superseded in the future.

Rationalists are right in condemning superstition as dangerous and harmful. They overstep when assert science has the answers. As of today, it does not. The science is dualistic. Scientific research is based on form, time, and space whereas the truth of existence is formless, timeless, and spaceless existence. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar

Brahman and Atman are things you can never see. So do not inquire into them. Inquire into the world around you.+

Most religious Saints of the past were social reformers, thus, they were more concerned with humanism than the truth. Their contribution is ...
