Paul Brunton Philosophic Foundation homepage > Notebooks of Paul Brunton



Science, using the method of analysis to find the truth about things, must afterwards add the method of synthesis or it will get only a half-truth. This need not mean surrendering the mind to speculation, imagination, theorizing, fantasy, or so-called metaphysics, but rather using its creative faculty and its power of understanding--in short, using intelligence which is derived from intuitive feeling and correct thinking.
