The Search for Scientific Truth Leads to GodAt the dawn of the twenty-first century, many now realize that the opposition of science and religion has been exhausted. Today, legal jointure of the two is imperative. The first step in this direction is recognizing that science is not the however source of knowledge experience, spiritual discernment and spiritual experience defend the unified process of cognizing the world. I. About the Unified Language in which the Laws of Nature are WrittenIt began in Moscow more than forty years ago. At that time I had the chance to be the graduate student of the distinguished physicist, Nobel Prize laureate, and wonderful man, Igor Evgenievich Tamm. (1) In those days theoretical physics experienced a state of deep depression. After the success of quantum electrodynamics had astonished the imagination, further advancement was hindered by the lack of fundamentally new physical ideas.With this Igor Evgenievich was repeatedly saying to me that, by inv enting different models of interactions, we impose our own human language on nature. But nature does not understand us, and dialogue does not come about. That is why, our primary toil is to learn to listen to nature in order to understand its language. But where is this language? In what it is encapsulated? It is in laws. It is in the laws of Newton, in the equations of Maxwell, in Euclidean geometry, in the laws of quantum mechanics. All these laws are written in some unified language.Thus at the end of 1960 there was set up a completely strange task to find the unified universal language in which all fundamental physical laws are written, and then, leaning on this, to review and to reassess the terms of all physics.Histor... ...ld.

Our capacity for creativity and for abstract thinking, and ability to understand the realism around us is not the propert y of highly organized matter, but presents itself as the particle of God inserted into us. And it is not labor at all, but only the very act of inspiration, in its own way, which detached man from the rest of the humanoid family as a unique creature.Notes(1) The Memoirs on I.E. Tamm.
