KISHORE DEBNATH explores how science, art, and spirituality all take us beyond the physical world into subtler realms where we must understand and describe phenomena through abstraction

SPIRITUALITY AND ABSTRACTION: A JOURNEY BEYOND THE CONCRETE

In a world that often demands clear-cut answers and tangible results, the concepts of spirituality and abstraction may seem elusive and intangible. Yet, these ideas offer a profound understanding of the true nature of reality.

As we delve deeper into the subtleties of life, we begin to perceive reality more accurately, even if expressing these insights proves challenging. Abstraction, while seemingly vague, provides a more accurate representation of physical phenomena than concrete objects alone.

Spirituality: The Subtle Path to Perceiving Reality

Spirituality is a journey towards the subtle aspects of existence, transcending the physical, and delving into the essence of life. As we progress on the spiritual journey, we develop a heightened awareness of the interconnectedness of all things, often leading to experiences that defy conventional explanations.
