“Science is about the real world.” Egmont Kakarot-Handtke

Right. And historically the hallmark of good science and of scientific breakthrough is the integration of the scientific method and an aspect of human consciousness like imagination, or faith as in confidence in order to include (inclusion/inclusiveness are aspects of consciousness as well) something outside of the norm, or looking/willingness to look as in seeing in the present moment, so as to discover something new. In other words newness and nowness as in a new unit of time distinct from past time and thought, that is, not orthodoxy or even heterodoxy that has become orthodoxy.

Economics, and sciences of the hard and soft varieties need integration. And as Wisdom is the integrative process itself and Wisdom is the science and contemplation of the aspects of consciousness…what passes as science today requires integration with consciousness/Wisdom and beyond that even (and specifically for economics) it requires integration with and contemplation of the pinnacle of Wisdom which is the flow state and in the West is called Grace as in balance, equilibrium and flow which not coincidentally are the goals of economic theory and policy.
