Some of the religious literature you are citing has to be understood or located into the culture in which it is coming from. It was not narrated to an audience of materialistic atheist-humanists. They are not describing the world 'out there' scientifically, it is talking about the world 'inside'. Spiritual masters talk about the sky of the heart, the sun etc. it might even be poetic language. One narrator I read has said that they saw the Throne and the footstool and the footstool in relation to the throne in size and scale is like a ring thrown into a vast desert. Are we going to analyse this statement using science and observation? If we did we would be making a giant mistake, these things are beyond the comprehension of scientific methodology. A good analogy I read recently describing science said that it is like a tailor who measures up Tom and knows all his dimensions and can tailor all his clothes for him perfectly, if you ask the tailor (science in this analogy) about Tom they will give you all his measurement, but if you ask him about the other aspects of Toms personality the tailor will not have a clue. This indicates the limits of scientific methods. |
