The catalytic fact of the twentieth century is uncontrollable development, consumerist
society, political materialism, and spiritual devaluation. This inordinate development has
led to the transcendental 'second reality' of sacred perception that biologically
transcendence is a part of human life. As the century closes, it dawns with imperative
vigour that the 'first reality' of enlightened rationalism and the 'second reality' of the
Beyond have to be harmonised in a worthy state of man. The de facto values describe
what we are, they portray the 'is' of our ethic, they are ‘est’ values (Latin ‘est’ means is).
The ideal values tell us what we ought to be, they are ‘esto’ values (Latin esto 'ought to
be'). Both have to be in the ebb and flow of consciousness. The ever new science and
technology and the ever-perennial faith are two modes of one certainty, that is the
wholeness of man, his courage to be, his share in Being.
The materialistic foundations of science have crumbled down. Science itself has
proved that matter is energy, processes are as valid as facts, and affirmed the non-
materiality of the universe. The encounter of the ‘two cultures', the scientific and the
humane, will restore the normal vision, and will be the bedrock of a 'science of
understanding' in the new century. It will give new meaning to the ancient perception that
quantity (measure) and quality (value) coexist at the root of nature. Human endeavours
cannot afford to be humanistically irresponsible.
