He often cites Einstein&#8217;s famous quote:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Did you know Dr. Pillai has also revealed that Einstein was in fact the reincarnation of the Tamil Siddha Bhogar?<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #2ea3f2;\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Take a look at these\u00a010 quotes from Einstein that may just reveal this past life:<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI believe the main task of the spirit is to free man from his ego.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEveryone who is seriously engaged in the pursuit of science becomes convinced that the laws of nature manifest the existence of a spirit vastly superior to that of men, and one in the face of which we with our modest powers must feel humble.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is no logical way to the discovery of elemental laws. There is only the way of intuition, which is helped by a feeling for the order lying behind the appearance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;As I have said so many times, God doesn&#8217;t play dice with the world.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI assert that the cosmic religious experience is the strongest and noblest driving force behind scientific research.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA human being is a part of the whole, called by us \u2018Universe\u2019, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest\u2014a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe human mind is not capable of grasping the Universe. We are like a little child entering a huge library. The walls are covered to the ceilings with books in many different tongues. The child knows that someone must have written these books. It does not know who or how. It does not understand the languages in which they are written. But the child notes a definite plan in the arrangement of the books\u2014a mysterious order which it does not comprehend, but only dimly suspects.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe finest emotion of which we are capable is the mystic emotion. Herein lies the germ of all art and all true science. Anyone to whom this feeling is alien, who is no longer capable of wonderment and lives in a state of fear is a dead man. To know that what is impenetrable for us really exists and manifests itself as the highest wisdom and the most radiant beauty, whose gross forms alone are intelligible to our poor faculties\u2014this knowledge, this feeling \u2026 that is the core of the true religious sentiment. In this sense, and in this sense alone, I rank myself among profoundly religious men.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd certainly we should take care not to make the intellect our god; it has, of course, powerful muscles, but no personality. It cannot lead, it can only serve.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou must warn people not to make the intellect their God. The intellect knows methods but it seldom knows values, and they come from feeling. If one doesn&#8217;t play a part in the creative whole, he is not worth being called human. He has betrayed his true purpose.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Do these 10 quotes from Einstein on Science and Religion hint at his past life?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":3908,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[12],"tags":[162,335,911],"class_list":["post-3904","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-inspiration","tag-bhogar","tag-einstein","tag-quotes"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v24.8 (Yoast SEO v27.3) -
