Transhumanism

Hmm don’t quote me on this, but i believe it gets derived- like its gas- from zero point energy.
But i see what you’re saying
Also question
Surgery. Is that considered transhumanism? Thats a real time thing that can and does alter the individual completely
(Bc It’s not like a pill that will eventually loose it’s half life lol) @Lady

On the same page with you.

I don’t know why you’re asking me, I am asking you, lol. Maybe I phrased it badly in my original post, it was meant to be an open ended question and has nothing to do with my personal opinions.

I think fields are transhumanist, but a different type of transhumanism from physical augmentation. I don’t know if one is okay and the other isn’t. I obviously utilize fields, I am on this forum. You get the point.

As for surgery, not really. You’re basically injuring the body, removing an organ, etc. So no, not transhumanism. Your body still remains the same, just injured/in a worse state. So you went from being unhealthy to being deficient, lol. And I say this as someone who had an appendectomy, before anyone misinterprets what I am saying.

Ah in that case my perspective;
Well according to oxford, transhumanism is the chip scenario, only (its to be some industrial tangible thingy that’s science affiliated)
Energy was not founded as an industrial tech. It existed since or has always been accessible; a natural resource each man has equal access to if you will
Fields are just where some fancy person(s) whom have the ability to hone in on zero point energy, thereby allowing them to implement real ideas in real time, but in a non-invasive, nonetheless higherups (like higher source) approved-way
Al i know is
I never ever want to have a microchip planted in me for the sake of enhancing my senses lol. I’m too cynical of the government

Oh my G…!!! ( but Y.N.H is far more scary)
I wonder if this boy has been allowed to hang on the internet at a young age? I wonder what influence his parents are under? I was born during the 70;s…no internet, no SM= easy happy life of selfexploration, creativity,joy, togetherness…
The line between genius and insanity can be very fine.

I think anything can be functional or dysfunctional in its application depending on the level of consciousness of the people using it, so there aren’t many things I am not for exploring. But I would find it more desirable if they were explored out of curiosity and wonder rather than fear and control.

That being said, I do think that the more we pull away from nature, the less wholesome it seems to be, with myriad consequences that leave us with less vitality and joy. So there might be a natural evolution within the artificial one, where limits might be reached to what can be done while keeping some level of wellbeing.

BUT science fiction is my favourite genre by far, so the idea of merging flesh with machine for example, if it can be done wholesomely, is wildly fascinating to me :smiley: Would I do it? No, as I’d like to get to a level of control over my biology where I do not have to resort to such things. But would I watch in glee while others do it? Hell yeah hahahahha

We are always altering our energy fields with our minds on auto pilot or with intent, nothing else needed… another can help us with this since there is only one… no metal needs to be inserted into flesh, causing harm… A pure higher mind will not destroy the body…

Agreed!

It’s a deep subject, isn’t it? There’s room for nuance, certainly. I think the soul wants to explore this “gone bad” scenario, even if it destroys itself, because it knows it can rebuild itself eventually.

I know right, lol. When I first found out about it I felt fairly disturbed by it.

I agree, actually. I would say you’re right.

I’m not really clear on what the soul wants outside of “it wants to experience” :joy: The body getting destroyed or even the whole planet, it’d all start again, so my impression is that no matter the scenario, one day when we’re no longer embodied, it will be the equivalent of watching a movie while eating popcorn haha That’s why on most issues, the question of whether or not we should remedy them makes me wonder if, outside of living by one’s conscience, it amounts to much.

I once asked a metaphysical author what happens spiritually when one cryogenizes oneself. He said the soul would most likely feel sad.

This didn’t answer my question directly, but I guess it means the soul can still come and go and “live” but it can’t reincarnate cause it is attached to a preserved body. And presumably he prefers to reincarnate than to stay in the same body.

I think unless we upload our consciousness to bacteria and that sort of life-forms, the only way to preserve ourselves (for ridiculous amounts of time) is through purely synthetic means.

Not everyone believes in the soul, reincarnation, etc. Specially the powerful people (I mean, many have done evil things) wouldn’t like what that system has in store for them. So making our system to support our human ways (corruption :dizzy:) seems like a better choice.

I’m in for transhumanism and the development of technology if we don’t develop alternative technologies. I mean, humans can still be organically enhanced, and perhaps enough to overcome all our current suffering.

As a side-note, the latest conspiracy theories are about new technologies (blockchain) being used to track us and make use of our bio-data.

Personally, I am against transhumanism. Number 1 humans produce light, this energy is precious. I heard teleportation may even be possible. Number 2 anyone will be able to exploit me if I was transferred to a AI system. Number 3 immortality doesn’t sound too good if you don’t have freedom.

Counterquestion:
What happens when one is in koma?
This is a question for you to think about since I already know the answer.

This answer implies that this author does not even know about the Higher Self and thinks “he is only one soul”. Such authors, in my opinion, should better not write anything but rather read and learn first.

This assumption would imply that consciousness is information / code.
However, consciousness is qualia, which cannot be expressed through information / code. Even mainstream philosophy agrees on this. But what transhumanists don’t understand.

Any transhumanist technology that would act supportive for the soul/consciousness, must be supported by the consciousness in the first place. Otherwise that technology is just “dead matter”.

These are proven facts though. People just need to read more books…

What type of light are you speaking about?

Light energy. It’s been proven by science that humans produce a light that can’t be seen by the normal eyes. Even Adam and Eve had light around their bodies. If you read ancient Indian manuscripts people were known to harness the light and make it stronger.

I mean I see where you are getting at. But the core foundation of being a human is freedom and the freedom to die or live. Sure thing if you uploaded your consciousness into a AI system, will you still have emotions? Will you even have consciousness? How can it be proven that your consciousness is intact in the AI machine. Ok organically transformed is not transhumanism. Once a computer chip gets in your brain like Elon musk has proven to make. It will only make you a victim of radio frequency that can not only kill you but if you were to ever seem a threat to the system they can probably shut you down and fry your brain. Good luck with that no more freedom. And no more life.
