During the last century, science has produced so many startling advances;
with the touch of a button you can surf the internet or launch a rocket;
even planes are flown with computers.

But if you want to talk about cutting edge,
what if you could fly a plane with your thoughts alone?

This is the kind of ability our fundamental mind possesses.
In the process of discovering and learning to rely upon this inherent mind, we gain the right to freely use our minds like this.

If I compare this realm we are living in to a bus,
Then people are like passengers who just go where the bus goes, with no control over their road or destination.
If you want to be free,
you have to step out of the bus.
However, if you can't step out of the bus,
you won't be entrusted with the abilities of a free person.

Like this, if we remain ignorant, if we dont pay attention to the spiritual, the nonmaterial,
we won't be able to properly develop the material world.
The current scientific approach depends upon a certain framework,
and based upon this,
people say they know this or that,
but this framework itself causes limitations that prevent a wider view of the world.
In all of the phenomena that can be perceived,
there is not a single thing that remains stationary and unchanging.

By using and relying upon their inherently bright foundation,
people have the natural ability,
to change the material realm,
to create new things,
to evolve,
to cause something to return to the source and be recreated,
to make something bigger or smaller,
or to help something rise completely above the level it's stuck at.

Break up the old framework of science,
and realize a science that can freely apply
the truth of mind
to every kind of circumstance.
This is true science,
this is science freed to use its full potential.
