Thank you, Anish, for another beautifully written and inspiring article! I read The Tao of Physics when it first came out in 1975, and it remains today one of my favorite all-time books. This is so true, as you wrote: "Science always want ‘explanations’. Whereas, Mysticism is concerned more with ‘experience’. The Vedas wisely advise, Ateendrayasch ye Bhava Na Tans Tarken Yojayet—thoughts that transcend the senses should not be understood through mere reasoning." Or as Capra wrote in The Tao of Physics, "Whenever the essential nature of things is analysed by the intellect, it must seem absurd or paradoxical. This has always been recognized by the mystics, but has become a problem in science only very recently." I am so grateful for your elucidation of this profound topic. Namaste!
