Physics and philosophy both share the same fundamental problem: they try to find absolute answers using relative means. Einstein said:
"We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them."
Similarly, we cannot find an absolute answer using a relative tool - mind. Our minds are limited (relative) not only by their capacity, but more so by the means with which they gather their information: the senses. Our senses are extremely unreliable -dogs apparently have a sense of smell many times stronger than our own; their hearing is also able to detect frequencies which ours cannot; and many animals are reported to be able to see light frequencies (x-ray and UV) which our eyes cannot.
So how is it possible to find the absolute conclusions which are sought by scientific, rational, mental processes? It is not.
Einstein also said:
"the rational mind is a faithful servant, and the intuitive mind is a sacred gift. We have created a society which honours the servant and has forgotten the gift".
Science and philosophy are stuck when they rely only on the rational mind. In the new science, which Amrit is expounding (i think - but i am no scientist!) rational mind and intuitive mind must meet.
And finally - time is relative. What runs the universe, and all it's relative parts, is absolute. Some call it God, some call it Energy. I simply call it the Absolute. To find any absolute answers in science or philosophy, we must transcend what limits us - which is our relative mind.
