The Living Force
I do not mind technology
but in the way it is used, pushed and too often enslaving humanity (easily) I am critical.
Especially as the tech often flirts with the human mind, giving promises - but reality most often shows an ugly face over time. Sneaking up from behind. Through the backdoor.
Duality - on purpose
Always these backdoors in everything... these dual standards. Not to mention the gathering of powers behind the technology as it rises in the ranks - reminds me of sharks. And double speak
What i miss is education
which not only encourages peole to use technology, but also teaches and inspires, encourages and challenges people to take responsibility. I mean from within.
From a point where you know what can be done - but doesn’t mean you have to punch it all or in a negative sense.
why is techology always so damn hard harvested ? We adapt to technology, but often get to hear the glossy side: that it makes it easier to us - helps us
I see little of that in reality in companies ! When a program isn’t designed to for certain human parameters - we as workers have to fill in, adapt and accept. “Sorry, the program isn’t made for that”. End of discussion.
So then: the other way around it is. Humans adapt to machines. Not machines to humans.
the art of rejecting negative thoughts
Humanity isn’t well schooled in the art of rejecting negative thoguhts and impulses. How that can be done - from within. Not always having to give in for every single impulse. I miss that sort of school.
Perhaps there is none.
I remember that Laura mentioned in one of her Wave books something like - there is no school like a institution that teaches the higher art, the fourth way.
That such learning of schools are of temporary art and more a manifestation which then dissipates again, and reappears elsewhere again. That the higher knowledge is the “unwritten one” and yet revolves around universal teachings. Waiting to be unlocked from deep within the human soul/dna/core.
(I am not 100% sure if i understood it correctly because in my own words - as i often write out of memory - it all just don’t sounds so nice writer-like.... like she and other skilled writers use words (which i deeply admire !! ).
Teachings & Technologies
Yet still, i would like to see more teachings in technologies - which weight in both moral as well inspirational fun, ying and yang. Not just all that straight stuff, capturing peoples in numbers and squares - but also soft human values
Technology is outmost fascinating. We guys are “suckers” in that regard. But boy, it ain’t everything.
So why are we (in general) often pretending as if, especially in visionary articles - techology has answers to everything that is ?
What is a soldier without moral ? What is a teacher without sensitivity ? What is a farmer’s skills without balance and care to animals ? What is an iPhone without an aware brain in the user ?
Of course you are right @bjorn
tech always will have a duality. It is kind of built in. As it is in us. Everything about this 3D realm is duality by design. In that lies both progress and demise. Wisdom and fallacy, tricks and treats. Rising and falling.
Perhaps with maturing age I am less prone to look up and adore people/entities like Elon Musk, Apple, and all those other famed entities.
Something tells me - there is a lot more to those than what meets the eye - and I am keeping both a mindful yet highly watchful eye.
Only because Elon Musk is “critical” towards the Plandemic - doesn’t make him a friend (you know; the enemy of my enemy is my friend).
I do not walk over that bridge !
