Synopsis

There are two types of "gnosis", "knowing", that of mysticism and science. In confining itself to the study of what can be empirically be known science can't cover ultimate "causes". This is a lucid, poetic, impassioned statement by a mystic explaining the current movement in science toward a "spiritual" world view. It draws the larger picture of the underlying compatibility of scientifically and gnostically derived knowledge. It conveys an immediate sense of the divine nature of the quantum interconnectedness of the universe, portraying the mystics vision of the one transcendent and immanent intelligence that originates and sustains it.
