Omul și Universul: devenirea omului după Vedānta

Abstract

Human existence in the manifested reality has never been limited to pure material existence, to pure biological, chemical and physical observable processes. This is the „progress” of the modern natural science that downgraded human existence to its pure material foundations and refuses to acknowledge any other existential dimension. This is why modern psychology, for instance, is unable to exceed the simple states of mind and to look forward to the unveiling of the human spirit manifesting into material forms. Yet esoteric sciences and authentic religions still have access to this non-material manifestation. This is the case of Vedanta, which replaces the becoming of the human spirit on the ground of the realization of the Supreme Spirit in Nature. As a natural consequence, the fulfillment of the human condition is to embrace and dissolve into the infinite non-manifestation of the Supreme.
