Man gets lost in dogmatism and does not know where he is heading. And then there are many difficulties. Dogmatism is created because man pulls the curtains down on the subtle world.

Science benefits religion
Common people without hesitation say science has killed religion. I believe that nothing else has fostered religion as science has. If science had not explored and discovered the world of the subtle modes and subtle truths then the many dogmatic philosophers would have turned more violent and that would have resulted in many more conflicts. The third eye of philosophers is not open yet and so there is constant dialogue and argument. They see only with two eyes.
