Background
Global times now endow — and challenge – us with a broad diversity of cultures and civilizations. At the same time the progressive deepening of human concerns reaches beyond what is clear and distinct to what is of meaning and value, and beyond what is universal and necessary to the free human creativity of diverse peoples. This directs attention to the way persons and communities, working cumulatively over time and space have generated their cultural traditions. These two dimensions: one of global breadth and the other of the depth of the human spirit, now combine to open new sources for the human spirit.
There is a need to “rethink philosophy” in order to enable the vision of philosophy to be more inclusive and profound. In this light, there is an opportunity of many world cultures and civilizations to formulate their own heritages their philosophical insights and contributions. The goal will be to enrich philosophical awareness so that its horizons can be broad enough for all peoples to be truly at home therein

After Darwin
Dr. Elisabet Sahtouris talks to Big Picture about reuniting
spirituality with science in order to form a new world view
30 August 2003
Wasan Island, Canada

Part One:
Humanity in crisis, sustainability, learning from living systems
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
November 20, 2008 at 9:06 am | In Seminar-seminar | Leave a Comment
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.

Sains dan Pencarian Makna
September 22, 2008 at 4:04 am | In Seminar-seminar, Uncategorized | Leave a CommentSains dan Pencarian Makna
Menyiasati Konflik Tua antara Sains dan Agama*
Dr. F. Budi Hardiman
Di samping agama dan filsafat, sains merupakan salah satu bentuk pengetahuan manusia yang gigih mencari makna. Mungkin sains tidak menuntaskan banyak misteri kehidupan manusia, seperti misteri asal-usul kehidupan dan misteri kematian, namun langkah-langkah untuk memecahkan enigma-enigma seperti itu tampaknya berjalan progresif dalam sains. Kesan bahwa sains ingin menyaingi agama atau bahkan menggantikannya dalam perannya sebagai juru tafsir dunia cukuplah beralasan. Sains berambisi menjadi sistem pandangan dunia menyeluruh, dan itulah yang terjadi dalam scientism. Di dalam saintisme kesahihan agama dalam memaknai dunia ditolak. Di tengah-tengah dominasi saintistis itu di abad ke-20 terjadi suatu tren yang sebaliknya: Kesahihan sains dalam memaknai dunia juga dipersoalkan.
Secara garis besar ada tiga posisi untuk memahami hubungan antara sains dan agama dalam pencarian makna. Dengan “makna” di sini dimaksudkan terutama ‘kebenaran’. Pertama, sains dan agama memiliki teritorium yang berbeda dalam pencarian makna. Kedua, agama dan sains dapat dibawa ke dalam arena yang sama dalam pencarian makna. Dan ketiga, agama dan sains menerangi realitas yang sama namun dengan perspektif yang berbeda. Dalam tulisan ini saya ingin menunjukkan bagaimana filsafat sains kontemporer bergerak ke posisi kedua dalam pencarian makna. Setelah itu saya ingin memberi evaluasi dengan mempertahankan posisi ketiga.

Terima kasih saudara Aan. Untuk sambutan selanjutnya dari Chairman Pusat Studi Islam dan Kenegaraan Universitas Paramadina Dr. Yudi Latif. Kepadanya kami persilahkan.
Dr. Yudi Latif
Assalamualaikum Wr. Wb. Pertama saya berjumpa kembali dengan Dr. Osman Bakar ketika ada seminar di Strasbourg. Tentu kehadiran beliau di sini sangat bermakna karena salah satu dari sedikit ilmuan Islam di Asia Tenggara yang sangat konsisten dalam mengembangkam pemikiran-pemikiran Islam, terutama dengan pemikiran filsafat Islam. Saya kira juga di sini ada yang lain yaitu Prof. Mulyadhi, cuma beliau yang masih tawadhu di tengah hiruk pikuk politik Indonesia dan masih bisa menelurkan karya, tidak tergoda dengan angin modernitas yang sedang meniup angin intelektual di Jakarta. Pak Mulyadhi ketika muda sudah produktif, di umur 30an dan tentu saja ini memberi teladan yang baik bagi kita yang muda.
