I feel like this is largely incorrect. You may not understand consciousness, but to calm that science hasn't touched it whereas eastern religions have is wildly inaccurate. Both Western and Eastern philosophers have considered consciousness at great length. Science has excellent maps and models of the human brain and we have had passable functional theories of mind for several decades. Is it complete? No, but science is rarely complete. Is it the forefront of a lot of research? Absolutely.
