Scientific work is accorded great status because people see them work. Now see the irony. A spiritual feat such as transcending of desires or emotions is rarely projected as a herculean accomplishment. IMO, one who does the latter can easily perform the former and not vice versa. The irony is spiritual feats are so rarely seen to work that any proclamation of its achievement is interpreted as a bogus claim.
