| Summary: | Abstract. This paper starts with a discussion of the nature of religion and of science, viewing them both as embodying a search for wholeness, although each does so in its own way. Attention is called to the fact that science and religion have both become fragmented and that this fragmentation has a deeper origin in the structure of the ego itself. The source of fragmentation in the ego is discussed. Finally, a possible way for the religious attitude and the scientific attitude to work together is proposed, which involves a common approach to ordering the fragmentary divisive structure and activity of the ego. |
