My whole take would be objectivity and science but fully drawn from a position of consciousness.
If a scientist is still largely unconscious (and plenty are as we know), or are ruled by their complexes, they are little better than the indian native believing in the witch doctor or ju-ju man. On the other hand, there are witch doctors and ju-ju men who have a broader spectrum of consciousness than many scientists, I think.
Science can't answer all the questions, at least yet, but some are trying hard. It's a case of "there's more things in heaven and earth Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.

The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
