There’s something interesting happening at the intersection of spirituality and science. Quantum mechanics has become a kind of modern language for mystery. Words like energy, observer, and entanglement get pulled into conversations about consciousness, manifestation, and the nature of reality. It sounds convincing. It feels expansive. It gives spirituality the appearance of scientific weight... There’s just one problem.

There’s a subtle confusion woven into much of modern spirituality, and that is the belief that spiritual insight needs scientific language to be valid.
