If we suppose that many natural phenomena are in effect computations, the study of computer science can tell us about the kinds of natural phenomena that can occur.

We call those works of art concrete that came into being on the basis of their inherent resources and rules - without external borrowing from natural phenomena, without transforming those phenomena, in other words: not by abstraction.
I am among those who think that science has great beauty. A scientist in his laboratory is not only a technician: he is also a child placed before natural phenomena which impress him like a fairy tale.

I then endeavoured to show that it is more especially in the thorough conformity with law which natural phenomena and natural products exhibit, and in the comparative ease with which laws can be stated, that this difference exists.

Interesting phenomena occur when two or more rhythmic patterns are combined, and these phenomena illustrate very aptly the enrichment of information that occurs when one description is combined with another.

Hence, even in the domain of natural science the aid of the experimental method becomes indispensable whenever the problem set is the analysis of transient and impermanent phenomena, and not merely the observation of persistent and relatively constant objects.

She- The Unforgetable
ALONE IN THE DARK WINTER,
LONG PAST YEARS SEEING HER.
WHAT I DO DON'T KNOW,
ONLY WANT HER TO MY LOVE, SHOW.
WITH NATURAL OCCURING PHENOMENA,
I DIDN'T WANT TO ENTER THIS ARENA.
WHERE ONLY ONE NAME RULES THE HEART,
ONLY ONE PERSON KNOWS THAT ART.
SHE IS UNKNOWN THUS I WONDER,
SEEING ANYONE LOVE MAY OCCUR.
IT'S NOT AS SIMPLE AS IT SEEMS,
FOR THIS I SEE WHOLE THE GLIMPSE.
WHEN SHE WILL APPEAR BEFORE ME,
I HAVE COURAGE TO SAY'LET IT BE'.
IF SHE WOULD GIVE ME HER LOVE,
I WILL EVEN RETURN FROM ABOVE.

The thing that got me started on the science that I've been building now for about 20 years or so was the question of okay, if mathematical equations can't make progress in understanding complex phenomena in the natural world, how might we make progress?

The entire cosmos is made out of one and the same world-stuff, operated by the same energy as we ourselves. "Mind" and "matter" appears as two aspects of our unitary mind-bodies. There is no separate supernatural realm: all phenomena are part of one natural process of evolution. There is no basic cleavage between science and religion; they are both organs of evolving humanity.

A poet must be a psychologist, but a secret one: he should know and feel the roots of phenomena but present only the phenomena themselves in full bloom or as they fade away.

All faith consists essentially in the recognition of a world of spiritual values behind, yet not apart from, the world of natural phenomena.
The teacher must derive not only the capacity, but the desire, to observe natural phenomena. The teacher must understand and feel her position of observer the activity must lie in the phenomenon.

Natural Selection never made it come to pass, as a habit of nature, that an unsupported stone should move downwards rather than upwards. It applies to no part of inorganic nature, and is very limited even in the phenomena of organic life.

Unfortunately, Climate Science has become Political Science. It is tragic that some perhaps well-meaning but politically motivated scientists who should know better have whipped up a global frenzy about a phenomena which is statistically questionable at best.
