________________ Vol. XIX, No. 2 123 there is non-dual frame of reference in the mind spectrum. Freedom flows from insight or intuition. The New World Order : The new world order is neither a political issue, nor an economic issue. It is basically a psychic issue. It is a fundamental question of evolution. Julian Huxley wrote, “Man's evolution is not biological but psychosocial...... The tempo of human evolution during recorded history is at least 100,000 times as rapid as that of pre-human evolution". Man has entered a new era of evolutionary history, one in which rapid change is a dominant consequence. He is contending with a fundamental change; since he has intervened in the evolutionary process. He must now better appreciate this fact and then develop the wisdom to direct the process towards his fulfilment rather than towards his destruction. The root cause of human suffering is that the mind in order to see itself “cuts itself up into at least one state which sees and at least one another state which is seen". Erwin Schrodinger, Nobel Laureate in physics, 1931, wrote: All of this (i.e., Western philosophy) was said from the point of view that we accept the time-hallowed discrimination between subject and object. Though we have to accept it in everyday life for practical reference', we ought, so I believe, to abandon in philosophical thought. 10 Werner Heisenberg. Nobel Prize in physics, 1931, conclusion is clear : From the very start we are involved in the argument between nature and man in which science plays only a part, so that the common division of the world into subject and object, inner world and outer world, body and soul, is no longer adequate and leads us into difficulties.11 Erwin Schrodinger heartily concurs and states simply, "These shortcomings can hardly be avoided except by abandoning dualism”. 12 "Abandoning dualism” is exactly Jain Education International For Private & Personal Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
