Site Introduction

We humbly attempt to bridge the deep chasm between the two mountains of human achievement: science and spirituality. The necessity of bringing these two towering edifices of human brilliance has been underscored by an authority no lesser than Albert Einstein, who phrased the union in terms of the human body: “Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind.”

To this end, this site offers the following services:
