About John E. Fetzer
John E. Fetzer spent a lifetime inquiring into the interconnectedness between science and spirituality for the transformation of self and society. His search integrated his inner practice (meditation and other mystically oriented practices) to “wake up”, with his outer work in the world. He chose to not be constrained by convention, or status, which led him into some of the most controversial fields of his time. Had he lived until now, he would have pushed even further into new frontiers. The reader then is encouraged to re-imagine for themselves where the frontiers lay in current times.
Questions that might help you to imagine this include:
Why does science need spirituality?
Why does spirituality need science?
What does it mean to awaken?
What practices best help people to awaken?
What is the nature of wholeness?
What questions expand your own search?
