When compared with the knowledge of omniscient Sages, research by western scientists is kindergarten stuff
Western scientist conduct research on a subject for some years and from the statistical data thus collected, draw their inferences. Conversely, the Sages are able to draw inferences instantaneously on any subject without any research because of the Divine Knowledge that they obtain. The two can just not be compared ! – Paratpar Guru (Dr.) Athavale
