Experience and observation combined with insight often yield a new breakthrough into truth and the
nature of reality.
Science (and the pursuit of truth in general) is a coordinated blending of empirical observation with
knowledge, intellect, insight and often inspiration. And just as it is true that no problem can be solved
from the level of consciousness which created it, so too insights into reality and the great scientific
developments seldom arise from the current milieu alone but rather are born from something beyond the
current status quo. It is frequently resisted, even vilified, when first brought forward – and the current high
priests of science are little changed from the Vatican hierarchy who condemned Galileo.
