How Science & Spirituality Split From One Another

Jennifer Myers

Why does our culture think of science and spirituality as completely separate?

It wasn’t always this way, say renowned spiritual pioneer Matthew Fox and Professor Brian Thomas Swimme.

In the video below, Matthew and Brian travel back to the year 1600 and walk us through how the “tragic divorce” of science and spirituality first happened — and how the two can converge once again in the evolution of human consciousness and our world to deepen the meaning of our lives.

(02:37) A fascinating poem about the “palpable disunion” in the collective consciousness
(03:29) The reaction most people have when they no longer feel connected to nature and the cosmos
(03:48) How we’re being called to “shake up” all of our cultural institutions — education, politics, economics, religion, and art

A professor of cosmology at the California Institute of Integral Studies in San Francisco, Brian is known for his Cosmogenesis book and Northern California Emmy® Award-winning PBS documentary, Journey of the Universe.

Matthew, one of the foremost mystical scholars of our time and recipient of the Peace Abbey Courage of Conscience Award, offers us divinely inspired guidance on how we can rise to meet the uncertainties of our time with compassion, conviction, creativity, and grace.
