In the 16th Velvi Discourse, Gurumahan States the Parallel Between Science and Spirituality in Humanity’s Quest to Remove Suffering.

People often ask where to search for something that cannot be easily found (God) and how to attain it. They also wonder how they can realize the subtle energy that cannot be seen. To help people understand this, wise beings created certain methods and practices.
We cannot see an atom with our eyes. Yet science explains the atom by giving it a model and describing its structure. It explains the outer part of the atom, its center, and the energy within it so that people can understand it.
In the same way, temple worship was created to help people experience the subtle divine energy that cannot be seen. In a temple, this energy is symbolized inside the dark sanctum. The sound of the bell and the light of the camphor flame help people feel this presence. Through the visible form we worship, we learn to realize the formless divine truth within ourselves.
Religions that arose in Bharat were created to teach this truth. In fact, religions around the world were not formed by ordinary people. Wise sages created them after deep thought and spiritual practice to help remove human suffering.
Just as scientists spend many years researching to find solutions for human problems, spiritual sages also searched deeply for the cause of human suffering. They discovered that the peace people search for outside actually exists within themselves.
Through deep meditation and reflection, they realized profound truths. These truths later appeared as the Vedas, the Upanishads, the Sutras, and various spiritual traditions. When these discoveries benefited many people, they grew into respected religions. If they benefited only a few people, they slowly disappeared with time.
Through Velvis and Yajnas, sages revealed a unique spiritual truth for the welfare of humanity.
