Science and Spirituality

How often in the past has science made a declaration about 'facts' only to change it decades or centuries later as and when more clarity emerges ? Too often for comfort, I'd say. The Human Genome project (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_Genome_Project) is the most comprehensive study made on the human DNA to date and yet it can make no sense whatsoever of over 97% of the sequences in it and so calls it 'junk'. Just because science cannot understand something completely, calling it junk is just being naive.

I'm part of the 'Narayana Movement' (http://groups.google.co.in/group/foaf2012) whose primary aim is to educate the world about 2012. There has been a lot of misinformation about what is going to happen to the earth in 2012. The popular theory is that life as we know it will come to an end in 2012 (reinforced by the Hollywood movie by that name). This is not what the Narayana movement believes. 2012 will herald the end not for the earth per se but for all negativity on earth. Armageddon for negativity, if you will.

The Narayana movement (in conjunction with http://www.kryon.com/) also says that the human DNA contains 12 strands of which only two are active for most people. Realised souls (Ramana Maharishi, Seshadri Swamigal, HH Chandrashekarendra Saraswati, Jesus etc) had all 12 active. There are literally thousands of people who have had first hand experiences with the seemingly 'magical' powers of the Kanchi Yogi (http://www.kamakoti.org/newlayout/template/souvenir.html). These incidents are too numerous to recount here. Science cannot even begin to explain some of these.

I'm now convinced that the 97% of the DNA which science calls junk holds many secrets. According to the Narayana movement,
  • it is possible for ordinary humans to increase their active strands by practicing certain techniques - all easy ones
  • The total number of active strands need to be increased to at least 6 by May 2012
  • the number of active strands is directly proportional to closeness with Brahman
  • DNA contains information about a person's past lives
  • Children being born these days naturally have 3 strands active ! These children are termed 'Indigo Children'


It is a truism that science and spiritualism are both sides of the same coin; they go hand in hand. But today's science cannot be blamed for not being to explain phenomena which it loves to call 'supernatural'. It is simply not mature enough today to offer an explanation. But every single 'supernatural' phenomenon - telepathy, life after death, astral travel etc - should have a scientific explanation. There has to be.
I'm positive Science is marching towards it.
