You may wonder what an evolution biologist is doing on a “World Commission for Global Consciousness and Spirituality” and that certainly is an interesting question. Because I wouldn’t have guessed myself that I would be doing this kind of work. But trained as a western scientist I came to feel that the world view I was taught was too narrow, like a suit one had outgrown, and was searching for the broader context for what a Western science would be. I’ve been working on that now for quite a few decades and have come to the view that consciousness is not a late emergent product of a material evolution but the exact opposite, the source of all material evolution. So I’ve come to believe that spirituality and science were separated only for historic reasons and that it’s time now to reunite them in a single world view that can encompass the best of our spiritual traditions and the best of our scientific traditions.
Dr. Fanaei Eskhevari on Islamic Philosophy of Politics

In November 13, 2008, Dr. Fanaei Eshkevari, a scholar from Imam Khomeini Education and Research Institute, gave a public lecture in the University of Paramadina. This program is conducted by ACRoSS in a collaboration with Pusat Studi Islam dan Kenegaraan (PSIK) Universitas Paramadina. The theme of the lecture is “Relation between Religion and Politics: Islamic Perspective.”
In the lecture, Dr. Fanaei started with the explanation that before we elaborate politics from philosophical perspective or the political philosophy, we should understand what philosophy is; it is just because the political philosophy is a branch of the philosophy. Philosophy is, Dr Fanaei explained, rational thinking about everything. Science starts from empirical observation, but philosophy doesn’t. Philosophy is a rational analysis and logical argumentation.

Diperlukan Perubahan Paradigma
– Ninuk Mardiana Pambudy & Bre Redana
SUKSES film ”Laskar Pelangi” dalam menarik jumlah penonton ke bioskop adalah juga kebanggaan untuk Mizan Publishing. Film yang diangkat dari buku karya Andrea Hirata itu diterbitkan September 2005 oleh Bentang, salah satu penerbit di bawah Mizan Publishing.
Kalau boleh terus terang, kesenangan sukses investasi (dalam film Laskar Pelangi) itu tidak sebanding dengan rasa senang bahwa film ini disukai orang,” kata Haidar Bagir (51), salah satu pendiri dan Presiden Direktur Mizan Publishing.

Abu Ali Al-Husayn ibn Abdullah ibn Sina known as Avicenna was born into a middle class family in Afshanah, near Bukhara. His father was a governor of the Samanid dynasty. After the death of his father, he began a period of wandering and turmoil. He sojourned for some time in Gurgan, Qazvin, Hamadan and Isfahan. A precocious genius, he is said to have cured the Samanid Amir Nuh Ibn Mansur at the age of 17, and by the time he was 18, he was accomplished in all branches of science. Avicenna, also known as Shaykh al-Ra’is (Master and Head) died near Hamadan and was buried there. His scientific status won him different epithets such as Shaykh al-Ra’is, Hujjat al-Haq, Sharaf al-Mulk and Imam al-Hukama. Avicenna’s philosophy is composed of basic elements such as peripatetic philosophy of Aristotle, and a portion of Neoplatonic specific cosmological elements in synthesis with Islamic world vision. With all that, he is more a follower of Aristotle than others. Yet, he does not follow Aristotle blindly and imitatively. With his own initiatives, he shed light on the dark aspects of Aristotelian thought and endeavored to establish a new philosophical system by using Platonic and Neoplatonic thinking. |

Alam Semesta sebagai Hologram
Buku: Michael Talbot – The Holographic Universe
Pada tahun 1982 terjadi suatu peristiwa yang menarik. Di Universitas Paris, Aspect bersama timnya menemukan bahwa dalam lingkungan tertentu partikel-partikel subatomik, seperti elektron, mampu berkomunikasi dengan seketika satu sama lain tanpa tergantung pada jarak yang memisahkan mereka. Tidak ada bedanya apakah mereka terpisah 10 kaki atau 10 milyar km satu sama lain. Entah bagaimana, tampaknya setiap partikel selalu tahu apa yang dilakukan oleh partikel lain. Masalah yang ditampilkan oleh temuan ini adalah bahwa hal itu melanggar prinsip Einstein yang telah lama dipegang, yakni bahwa tidak ada komunikasi yang mampu berjalan lebih cepat daripada kecepatan cahaya. Oleh karena berjalan melebihi kecepatan cahaya berarti menembus dinding waktu, maka prospek yang menakutkan ini menyebabkan sementara ilmuwan fisika mencoba menyusun teori yang dapat menjelaskan temuan Aspect. Namun hal itu juga mengilhami sementara ilmuwan lain untuk menyusun teori yang lebih radikal lagi.
Teori Evolusi Charles Darwin

TEORI EVOLUSI CHARLES DARWIN
Oleh: Drs. Bambang Agus Suripto, SU., M.Sc. (Dosen Fakultas Biologi UGM)
“In 1831 the Englishman set forth on his famous vayage in the Beagle. After 28 years he published Origin of Species, which revolutionized man’s view of nature and his place in it” (Loren C. Elseley, February 1956)
Pendahuluan
Sejak dahulu kala manusia selalu mempertanyakan asal-usul kehidupan dan dirinya. Jawaban sementara atas pertanyaan tersebut ada tiga altenatif, yaitu penciptaan, transformasi, atau evolusi biologi.
Definisi evolusi biologi bermacam-macam tergantung dari aspek biologi yang dikaji. Beberapa definisi yang umum dijumpai di buku-buku biologi, antara lain: evolusi pada makhluk hidup adalah perubahan-perubahan yang dialami makhluk hidup secara perlahan-lahan dalam kurun waktu yang lama dan diturunkan, sehingga lama kelamaan dapat terbentuk species baru: evolusi adalah perubahan frekuensi gen pada populasi dari masa ke masa; dan evolusi adalah perubahan karakter adaptif pada populasi dari masa ke masa. Evolusi telah mempersatukan semua cabang ilmu biologi.
