Bottom Line = Love

Dualistic thinking is an attempt to justify and rationalize our spiritual and religious beliefs in the face of modern materialistic science and medicine. Dualistic thinking allows scientists to justify their religious/spiritual beliefs and it allows nonscientists with spiritual/religious beliefs to accept the materialistic scientific and medical perspective. The problem with dualistic thinking is that it is inherently irrational. It is irrational to have materialistic science and medicine and meaningful spiritual/religious beliefs. These things don’t go together. To illustrate this we can ask, if our consciousness is disconnected from our body and nature, then what purpose and meaning could there be to life? If there is no connection and interaction with material reality then our consciousness is just a helpless bystander, passively along for the ride as our body goes through its material sojourn. Thus, if life is to have any meaning and purpose, other than an expression of material reality, it is obvious that spirit can not be entirely beyond and separate from material reality. In other words, spirit does not stand apart from nature, it is connected and interactive.

A little more refection leads us to conclude that these connections must be a function of the scientific laws of nature. How else could spirit, mind, and body function as an integrated whole? If this were not the case, in other words, if any life giving vitalistic effects of spirit were truly above and foreign to nature, to material creation and its scientific laws, then we would expect to see obvious disruption, violation, contradiction in the scientific materialistic descriptions of life. We don’t see this. What we see is that at the same time that life is qualitatively and dramatically different from the inanimate it remains quantitatively very similar. Yet, these materialistic quantitative descriptions of life remain incomplete and ineffective. If you believe that spirit or consciousness has its own existence apart from material reality, then the dualistic principle of disconnecting spirit form matter and nature in order to be scientific makes no sense. It undermines science, how scientific can medicine be if it ignores the critical spiritual and psychological aspects of life and health? And it diminishes any spiritual aspect of life, what purpose and meaning could there be if our consciousness is disconnected from our body and nature.

Thus, I conclude that nature and its scientific laws, like the fundamental forces of physics, are the expression of consciousness. God is not an external agent to material creation, nature, and ourselves. Therefore, there is no supernatural, beyond nature; nature is the creative expression of spirit. My healing discipline, the Fundamental Field, confirms this perspective. It shows that life is a function of the fundamental forces of nature as a large-scale (fractal) atom. Further explanation can be found on my and Maggie’s website fundamentalfield.com.

To summarize, I reject dualistic thinking, and I do not accept an atheistic or materialistic philosophy, especially regards the explanation of life, no matter now scientific they claim to be. Neither do I accept a philosophy where ones concept of spirituality or God is disconnected from nature and based on unscientific religious dogma. I am hoping that most will agree with me. But where does that leave us? I think it leaves us in wanting to have a scientific theory of life that incorporates a spiritual reality and has practical applications in medicine and healing. I believe that this is what the Fundamental Field does. It is an integrated worldview that bridges the dualistic divide. It thus transcends dualistic thinking, scientific materialism, atheist philosophy, religious dogma, and cultural superstitions.

I think Dr. Metz will be mentioning perennial philosophy in his upcoming book. At least WE are in agreement!

As a footnote, The Doors got their name from the “Doors of Perception” by Aldous Huxley. William Blake said it first, however: “If the doors of perception were cleansed every thing would appear to man as it is, infinite.”

Huxley’s most profound work is “The Perennial Philosophy: An Interpretation of the Great Mystics, East and West.” I am finding that perennial philosophy is possibly the most significant and fundamental spiritual path.

“LOVE!”…Pass it on…
