edge, while also at the same time emphasizing a particular level or state. The first three Darshanas-Nyaya, Vaisheshika, Sankhya-emphasize theoretical understanding of the totality, and the second three Darshanas-Yoga, Karma Mimansa, Vedanta—tend to focus on direct empirical experience of the totality. Yoga can be associated with the fourth state (transcendental consciousness) and its stabilization in the fifth state (cosmic consciousness); Karma Mimansa more with the sixth state, refined cosmic consciousness or God consciousness; and Vedanta with the seventh state, Unity (1). A direction for further progress in linking Vedic and modern science
On a practical level, it seems apparent at this point that the most important further step in linking Vedic science and modern science is incorporation of the systematic developmental technologies in Vedic science into higher education, as well as into the daily research practice of scientists. This can provide natural, effortless experiences of transcendental consciousness toward permanent enlightenment in higher states of consciousness through optimal development of mindbody functioning. Regular direct empirical experience of transcendental consciousness is the missing link in education, as well as in scientific practice worldwide. It may also be fruitful for modern scientists and Vedic scientists to formulate a common platform for integrative investigations into the ultimate unity of nature, and in particular the unification of relativity and quantum theories into a mathematically consistent unified field theory. So far there is no adequate coordination of experiments throughout the world; total unification is missing. Concerning this aspect of scientific knowledge acquisition, the common platform might include the following areas of consideration: i) conceptual common platform (basic principles, theories)
experimental common platform for both iii) experimental design, fabrication
common parameters for measurement v) mathematics, algebra, geometry, statistics, common for both
definitions, formulae, equations, derivations vii) location, direction, number of experiments viii) observations, interpretations
