Recorded on 26 July 2025 with worldwide participants

0:00 Intro
0:09 Is science and spirituality compatible with each other or conflicting with each other?
1:04 Science is based on evidence - is there evidence of God or Divinity?
9:27 Is God or Divinity logical?
11:09 Science denies the possibilities of miracles, is science wrong about this?
15:55 How do we explain miraculous experiences like brava samadhi to a scientific person?
17:43 In science there is no concept of faith - does that mean that within the scientific method you cannot go on the spiritual path?
20:41 How do we reconcile the theory of evolution, that creatures evolve from lower to higher beings, to the theory in spirituality that higher beings are created first and descend to lower beings?
27:54 Many animals existed in earth's history long before human beings - does that mean god created those animals before human beings?
32:48 Is consciousness possible to create in a computer or a laboratory?
44:39 So finally, Science alone cannot solve the fundamental questions, we need spirituality?
49:03 How is it possible to yearn for silence and spirituality when so much of the world is so fascinating?
50:00 Will science have to focus on the mind to find the truth?
52:27 If we are always focused on the efforts we are putting in, does that not boost our ego? Should we not be humble and say that the grace of god is what really gives the results?
54:24 How do we protect the god within us?
55:16 Why does my body drift forward during meditation?
