While the book focuses on the Western tradition of ‘Enlightenment’, it also implicitly addresses the double meaning of the term, with the Eastern tradition describing it as ‘a state of true knowledge, which is an important goal on an individual’s spiritual path’ and the Western tradition seeing it as ‘the collective process of getting rid of narrow-minded dogmas and concepts’. The book is based on a simple yet challenging premise: Science has not gone far enough in the scientific process of going from a collective mind tied up in dogmatic teachings to a truly free mind that, seemingly, freed itself from bondage and restrictions. The book shows that science, and with it our whole Western culture, has to incorporate spirituality if it is to realize this goal of enlightenment. If that is done, and it can only be done by many individuals actually practicing spirituality, this will also lead to the individual type of enlightenment. | 出版日期 | Book 2015 | 关键词 | Consciousness Studies; Enlightenment and Science; History of Spirituality; Mindfulness and meditation; N | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-09345-1 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-38439-9 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-09345-1Series ISSN 2211-8918 Series E-ISSN 2211-8926 | issn_series | 2211-8918 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
