QUESTION & ANSWER WITH GURUDEV
POSTED ON: SUNDAY, JULY 16, 2023

Q: On spirituality and science, what do you think should change about science as we have it today, and the education in science?

Sri Sri Ravi Shankar:

Prejudice. If prejudice clogs science, then it dies very soon. Open-mindedness to possibilities is the basis of science! History has told us, when scientists were prejudiced, when they were blind or deaf to other researcher’s words, they suffered defeat. Their students took over and proved what their professors had taught was wrong. Hasn’t this happened in history? Yes! So prejudice should be done away with and there should be openness to all possibilities for a scientific mind.

Second is enthusiasm and intuition. What is the use of all the studies you do if you don’t are not inspired to do anything? You have all this knowledge and if you sit at home, just drinking tea and watching television all day, what is the use? If you have education, you should have inspiration along with it to do.

Intuition, innovation, and inspiration are essential characteristics of a scientist and also an artist.

Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
