mathematics exceeds bare formal logic insofar as proofs are not merely external rule-following

Of course that is not what I mean when I say logic. My notion of logic is not about mechanical rule-following but the logic of how your mind flows and comprehends things. My notion of logic is rich, qualitative, and subjective, not just a machine crunching numbers.

@Leo Gura Side note, THE most spiritual people I have met (visions, psychedelics, meditation, maturity, etc), by far, are all vocationally scientific (Math PhD, MD/PhD and History PhD). 

Then they should love my book.
