Abstract

Abstract

In this research paper, we will try to address questions such as what has been the relation of religion with science and philosophy and what has been its role in overpowering the psychological paradigm? How does psychology convert our objective or subjective problems into solutions? Is modernity anti-religion and science-oriented? Can this be resolved through psychological methods? There is no fundamental idea of ​modernity in India. Such questions suddenly arise in our mind, and if we try to find a solution to this in Indian classical tradition and modern contemporary philosophy, then the inter-relationship between religion, science and psychology is reflected, which cannot be separated. We can find solutions to problems only with their help because the entire conceptual system is created according to the psychological situation. Western scholars like phenomenologist Edmund Husserl believe that only a mythical experimental view is known in India and no theoretical thought is known. There is no philosophy in India and China. Apart from Husserl, many scholars who have written the history of philosophy, while writing lectures on world philosophy, do not put Indian philosophy in the category of philosophy and consider it inspired by religious, spiritual and experimental goals.

Keywords: Religion, science, psychological paradigm, mechanical laws, matter, mind.
