Knowledge is all of a piece. In particular, it is all of a piece with the knowing consciousness, so there can be no a priori dualism between consciousness and science. Far from implying that consciousness must be ‘reduced’ to physics and chemistry, I see physics and chemistry evolving more and more under the guidance of an active consciousness that participates in knowing, a way of knowing in science that involves the complete participation of the knowing being: intellect and feeling, mind and body, spirit and intuition. Authentic science and art are both creative activities arising out of this total engagement of nature and reality.
