Yet rational thought points to a nondual world, as articulated in Existential Rationalism. The realization forces us to reexamine the foundations of modern science: ...

The Eastern mystics have spent lifetimes contemplating the deeper concepts but perhaps not done enough to bring a clear picture that reflects practical wisdom to the masses. On the other hand, the West has merely touched the surface, using occasional meditation to calm the mind and Yoga as a safe option to maintain physical health.

Così la coscienza umana è diventata un mistero inafferrabile, un fenomeno interiore e soggettivo, e la natura un dato esteriore ed estraneo.
