It is a scientific concept, and therefore it
is not a bazaru concept. Don't confuse it with bazaru spirituality, i.e. Cheap,
marketed spirituality. Bazaru spirituality is a new form of business in the
name of scientific spirituality all over the world.
Firstly, you have to understand the
framework, structure and matrix of any person’s existence. This may be seen in
the same pattern in all living animals with some variation in quantity and
quality. All living beings have the same basic pattern of framework, structure
and matrix. All living beings may have a body, brain, mind, and spirit in
different qualities and quantities.
A person, or an animal, or any living thing
is made of matter, energy, and field force. We know that matter and energy are products
of the excitation of field force. The body is made of matter, and it
includes only the person's body and brain. Only the body performs physical
activities. The mind and spirit are made of energy. Lastly, and importantly,
the supreme level is known as 'Infinite Intelligence' is made of field force, and it is explained by Unified Field Theory.
The brain is a part of the body, but it works
only as a modulator. A modulator is a device that modifies the received signals
and the information, and encodes them for transmission to function further.
Thus, the brain works as a modulator among the body, mind and spirit. You may
call the spirit as the 'Atm' (आत्म), but
not 'Atma' (आत्मा). Here,
you must distinguish between the mind and the spirit.
The mind and the spirit are made of energy.
You may understand the structure and framework of the mind and the spirit as
some type of matrix of energy. Both the mind and spirit take their required
energy from the body of that person. The mind processes signals and information
from the body, spirit, and infinite intelligence into the ‘thought’ product.
Thinking processes are related to the mind only. The spirit processes signals
and information from the body, mind, and infinite intelligence into the
emotional product. Emotional processes are related to the spirit only. Both,
the mind and the spirit, interact with the infinite intelligence, the body (through
the brain), and each other as well.
The spirit connects the Infinite Intelligence
with the mind and the body. Infinite Intelligence provides the intuitive
knowledge to the person. According to Daniel Kahneman, the function of the
spirit is fast, simple and intuitive (System One) and the function of the mind
is slow, calculative, logical and effortful (System Two). Denial Kahneman is a
famous psychologist and writer of a famous book – “Thinking Fast and slow”. He
was also a Nobel laureate of Economics in 2002.
Thus, spirituality is process through
which the spirit (Atm) of a person connects with the Infinite Intelligence
(Adhi ie the higher/ the above) for gaining intuitive knowledge. Therefore,
spirituality enables a person to connect with infinite intelligence to receive intuition.
In ancient times, Lord Gautam Buddha was a great spiritual leader, who provided
profound knowledge to the welfare of humanity, nature and future generations.
Albert Einstein was another great spiritual figure, who introduced the unique
concept of modern science with the help of his spirituality. Stephen Hawking is
another spiritual personality of the current century, who produced unique insights
regarding the cosmos with the help of spirituality.

This article offers a profound view of spirituality—not as a marketplace product, but as a structured, scientific process of inner alignment between the body, mind, spirit, and Infinite Intelligence. What is remarkable is how this model echoes deeply across three great philosophical traditions: Emerson’s transcendentalism, Hegel’s dialectical idealism, and Taoist naturalism.
जवाब देंहटाएंRalph Waldo Emerson, in his seminal essay The Over-Soul, speaks of a universal divine spirit that permeates all individuals. His vision of the soul’s connection to a larger, intuitive intelligence mirrors what this article describes as the Atm uniting with Infinite Intelligence (Adhi)—a source of truth that lies beyond logic, accessible only through inner stillness.
Similarly, Hegel’s Phenomenology of Spirit explores the journey of consciousness as it evolves through contradiction and integration toward Absolute Knowing. Just as the article explains that the mind is slow and analytical while the spirit is intuitive and emotional, Hegel too insists that true wisdom arises when opposites within the self are reconciled and elevated into unity with the universal Geist (Spirit).
Taoism, meanwhile, adds the subtle yet powerful dimension of emptying the mind—wu wei, or effortless action, which aligns perfectly with the spirit’s role in intuitive functioning. As Lao Tzu says, “The Tao does nothing, yet nothing is left undone.” This aligns closely with the idea that intuitive intelligence flows when the ego-driven mind is silent.
Thus, from Emerson’s Over-Soul, to Hegel’s Absolute Spirit, to Lao Tzu’s Tao, the same essential truth emerges: Spirituality is the art and science of tuning into a higher field of consciousness through inner refinement, not external performance. This article beautifully reaffirms that insight in a language that bridges science, metaphysics, and lived experience.
Thanks for elaborating this article from different perspectives.
