Spirituality without the Supernatural
I have been wondering about this recently. I am starting to lose hope that there will ever be proof of the supernatural. I still have a strong feeling there is something out there. I feel a connection with the universe that cannot be empirically measured.
I have come to grips with the fact I cannot intellectually justify belief in God, never mind the divine inspiration of the Bible or any religious dogma. If there is no supernatural how can I be spiritual?
I feel spiritual when I look at a beautiful scene, like a sunset over the Hawaiian skies. But if there is nothing supernatural about the universe then my spirituality is just my brain reacting to a stimuli. That leaves a cold feeling in my belly.
Schrodinger's wave equation cannot be derived. It came to him while staring into the sea. It was the universe giving him information about itself that cannot be found by observations or extrapolation. This makes me wonder about a universal consciousness. Perhaps by random chance his neurons lined up just right and gave him a secret about the universe. Perhaps.
I need to see God. I need to connect to the Universe. My intellect is killing my soul.
