In my view, science and Buddhism share a search for the truth and for understanding reality. By learning from science about aspects of reality where its understanding may be more advanced, I believe that Buddhism enriches its own worldview.&amp;quot;-Take your time. Your thoughts and analysis will be valuable</p>
