Very rough, though the ideas are here.  IN PROCESS !  

 

 The Union of Science and Spirituality

 

Rhea White, Rudolf Steiner, John Heron, David Spangler, PMH Atwater, Thomas Berry and Brian Swimme, among others; also quite a number of outstanding other proponents in the fields of Consciousness Studies, Transpersonal Psychology; and still others in the feminist movement, feminist science:  all these have made wonderful inroads toward bridging the gap between science and religion / spirituality ..  And that is a monumentally important work.  This website is particularly focused on the works of White, Steiner, [Heron -- more so on another in-process website:  wHeretwoworldsTouch.com], and Spangler.

 

        This work [ahhh-thelight.com] is not religiously based, nor does it strive to satisfy traditional Western scientific expectations; yet there is much on both sides of that 'coin' that is appreciated, even reverenced  here.  For example, a disciplined approach to the study of such experiences that acknowledges subjective and objective observations and methods [emphasis on gynocentric / feminine, but not to the exclusion of androcentric / masculine, traditional] will be integral to some of the most exciting work that will be the central focus of one of our communities [see the Death Transcendent Cooperative Inquiry Initiative; John Heron; Rhea A. White.]  Also, thinking of the religious side of the coin, the power of belief / faith and all that encourages our recognition and living out of that, as well as the experiential-based history of all religious traditions are essential to our experience and understanding in all that transpires on all of the subwebs.

          We could call its orientation 'spiritual', honoring the sacred in all life, in all dimensions.  The most fundamental emphasis here is that which respects each person's own experiential truth as their Truth.  A well developed formal, multi-disciplinary field of research demonstrates a dramatically clear pattern of aftereffects across a wide spectrum of types of personal experiences people describe as [e.g.] spiritual / anomalous / meta-physical.
