The Tao and the Vague Path

Seeking No Audience – Unlike Almost All Else – This is Taoism and Tao = Path, But What Is It Good For?

Common misconceptions about Taoism and The Mystery of the Ancient Taoist only deepen as so little of the ancient texts are successfully translated for the world to see, BUT…

Ironic is the fact that so much of the little translated and little interpreted of the Ancient texts are translated by academics who have not walked the Tao-Path to begin with, also for many who truly walk this walk will hardly profess to doing so in the first place.

First we must move past a misguided assumption that the spirituality of the Eastern World is far more spiritual than that of the Western World. This misconception is cleared if and when we get past this ‘wall of the vague sense’ that comes from so little successfully passed down to begin with. Rather than explored by spiritual intellectuals abstractly, Taoism must be accessible to ALL, regardless of previous beliefs, education, I.Q, age, race, etc. It gradually appears that the more vague Taoism becomes to the outside world the more vague the understanding becomes and somehow inside the deep vagueness clarity begins. Tao = Path.

Taoism welcomes the humble and sincere, Taoism has no religious aspect and seeks not to ‘grandstand’ and ‘claim’ as religion does, but Taoism is open only to the ‘pure’ of heart, therefore revealing hidden wisdom to those who are open to this ancient and metaphorical language.

Taoism is not an ultimate achievement nor is it a spiritual life but as much as it isn’t – Taoism adds years to our lives and more life to our years. But what is the real advantage of Taoism? Nothing! For inside of the Tao we achieve more by doing less, for we express more by saying less. Being Tao is being True, being true is living without the worldly and (spiritual) cravings of acceptance, but cravings of the truth that only we can find, not be shown or led to.

For as they say: “No man ever steps in the same river twice, for its not the same river and he’s not the same man.”

Writing Success: When Showing Up IS Key To Writing! 

Everyday is the key! Whether be it that five year old project of a memoir, the next Harry Potter, a daily blog on technology, or merely a 100 Word Political Rant On Twitter.

Just Write! Writing becomes prolific, writing becomes habit, writing becomes better! Developing a practice of ‘Showing Up’. Writing is no hobby, it is A Way Of Life. Writing is a Must. Grow and maintain the habit daily. We logically don’t expect rock hard abs in one day from doing sit-ups but after constant chipping away comes great eventual rewards. The writing muscle needs stretching, exercising and reflection. Reflection over time builds confidence.

Real creatives fail all the time. Learn to appreciate failure. Without failure there are no rises to new places. All improvements come from failures. If writer’s block persists - write a short rant about having writer’s block. Momentum is King! Show Up!

The Labyrinth In Ones and Zeros of Our Flawless Reality

Life’s Matter, A Matter of Vibration and Frequency

With almost no limits to the combinations a computer can create with ones and zeros, so too are the combinations and frequencies that represent our external reality, as we perceive and touch.

Mathematical formulas, whether written by accident or not, are what constitute everything we see and touch. The Vibration of light and sound are the mechanics of living energy and what gives life the ongoing motion. This infinite potential is the amazing Life’s Matter, not too dissimilar to Virtual Reality.

Energy that flashes on and off to give us the perception of reality, to a point. Solid material is part of this intricate illusion we call solid reality, thanks to the Vibrations of Light and Sound – And Our Senses that we Percieve to be Our Flawless Reality.

The Secret Women of The American Civil War – To Make America Great!

Women on both sides of the American Civil War took on ‘Secret Identities’ and changed their Appearances to Fight alongside male soldiers in America’s Bloodiest Battles for what it was ‘Worth’.

Taking on these identities gave these ‘countless’ women freedom they usually would never enjoy. Women’s Suffrage, still well over fifty years away, these women could manage a male monthly income with freedom only a male soldier could enjoy. These identities these women took on, kept up long after the war was over, and some even kept their male identities until the day they died and still made impacts to their very cause.

One strong motivation for this new male soldier role-play was brand new Adventures never allowed enjoyed before, although primarily their deep personal reasons were simply money they never experienced.

Average soldier income was $13 a month, this was far more than any woman could earn in the real world at this time.

Knowledge of this among many male soldiers was common and wasn’t a very well kept secret. For many years after the war there have been many articles and letters written on their secret identities and their incredible wartime experiences.

The United States of America Army of 1909 officially denied ALL knowledge of such ‘Unearthly Facts’.

Wonder, Myth, Magic, Escapism and the Out Of This World in the Fantasy Film Genre Explored.

The Genre of Fantasy in Film includes the elements of many other genres such as Supernatural, Magic, Afterlife, History, Alternate Worlds, Science Fiction, Human Cloning, Computers and so on.

Fantasy with the elements predominately of the Horror and Gloomy Kind is known specifically as – Dark Fantasy. This is a hybrid of two distinct genres that make up this sub-genre. This type of filmmaking has worked into it tones of Horror, Dark Dread and Brooding. Pan’s Labyrinth, The Dark Crystal, Avengers: Infinity War and Legend are classic examples.

Inside the wide genre of Fantasy we have another sub-genre, and this genre is – Heroic Fantasy. The formula of the hero initially refusing the call to action, such as Star Wars, Conan the Barbarian, The Hobbit and Shrek. The reluctance is overturned by unforeseen events, and a hero is born. This hero often originates from humble origins, incredible lengths of one’s mettle and fortitude are often put to the test through challenges of the physical and spiritual kind.

A third kind is fantasy which has elements and settings of the Victorian, Edwardian or Gothic Era known as – Gaslamp Fantasy or Steampunk. This sub genre is usually without technology and science such as Dracula, Sherlock Holmes, Jeckyll and Hyde, and Jack the Ripper. Gaslamp Fantasy sticks very true to its elements of its timeless Steampunk Origin.

Often with a sense of Wonder, Myth, Magic, Escapism and the Out Of This World, Fantasy Genre in Film has and will always be one of the most popular, stretching people’s imaginations to no end.

Astrally Speaking – ‘Travel and We Shall Find.'

Throughout history Astral Projection has been practiced for one reason or another. This age old practice has been to leave the host body (Physical) and travel, either to different places in the Astral Plane or to seek guidance from higher up guides. Enlightenment, Clarity, Healing and Fine Tuning are the main spiritual paths that need Observing, Exploring and Attaining for many of us (Soul Seekers/Travellers).

‘Travel and we shall Find’. Out of Body Experiences involve the separation of ‘one’ of many bodies we have. Primarily being A Body of Energy, these many bodies we naturally have, thru OBE’s, specifically the Astral Body, leaves the physical momentarily involuntarily or ‘Voluntarily’ as may be. The physical body being our temporary home and our many various other bodies being our ‘truer’ spiritual identities, with endless potential, purpose that is boundless.

Lucid Dreams, sickness, various trauma, near death experiences have all been known to trigger Out Of Body Experiences, whether remembered all not. Levels of importance or relevance usually do not play a grounding role, but the many layers of mystique leaves nothing without endless intrigue for the open minded (Soul Searcher/Traveller). Through Out Of Body Experiences one can usually discern quite clearly the distinct sensation of separation (Physical from Astral), (Astral from Physical). These separations Being our consciousness leaving the physical and vice versa – (Restoration Process).

Several steps come into play for this ‘Voluntarily Travel’: Semi Drifting to Sleep State which usually only takes place with complete relaxation (Mentally & Physically).
The Mental Metronome Exercise, which basically brings our mental state into sensation that is clearly higher than our current physical sensation. (Paying deep attention to energy and vibrational sensations). Embrace this Frequency Vibration as this Vibration is the cradle that escorts our transition. We gently ease our way one body part at a time – some body parts may be more agreeable, for example: for some travellers the foot first maybe more successful that the hand first. We hold focus and we eventually ‘Lift Out’, taking heed of the importance of ‘Gentleness’, ‘Patience’, ‘Focus’, and ‘Success’.

Astral Projection for many years has been shunned widely for many reasons. The closed minded have a tendency for negatively labelling of countless phenomena owing to fear of the unknown or unexplainable – in the expected way.

The many benefits of ‘Projecting’ is to reach out, travel and experience other spiritual dimensions far beyond our usual and accepted reality of dimension. Our Parapsychic Awarenesses brighten with time and experience. Extrasensory Perceptions Expand as we further our practice and we generate our awakened psychic-sight. Through more and more projections in full consciousness we enter into ‘Higher Purpose’.

This higher purpose translates into our current day to day lives and presents to us the ‘True Nature of our Existence’ – if only (Spiritually) Piece by Piece of the Wonderful Puzzle that is Life.

Digital Social Me – Do I Have Choice?

Social Identity: ‘The recognition of one’s potential and qualities as an individual, especially in relation to social context:

Caring can become the defining characteristic of women’s self-identity.’

Other forms of social identity are how one is recognized in the sporting world, whether as a player or a spectator. How one is accepted by their peers, such as school, family, work, religion, cults, sports, hobbies etc. Even how one is amongst others that simply share their place on the planet. Social identity is how one is perceived by others, and even more importantly how one is perceived by ‘themselves’ in their social circle. ‘Socialization’ enables us to fit into social groups and make adjustments to new situations’ Poole, M & Germov.

The Digital Self
Then there is the ‘Digital Identity’ Deborah Lupton states, ‘Accessing our news, music, television, films via digital platforms and devices. Intimate work-related relationships, our membership of communities may be at least partly developed, maintained using social media: LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter.’ These statements of Lupton’s cement the fact that Digital Identities have quickly taken over from where the non-digital social identities played the part in our lives. Developing and maintaining digital social memberships has never been so easy. Facebook for example is far too easy, in fact Facebook have made it so members cannot entirely close an account. Just in case they change their mind, and they usually do. Dhiraj Murthy wrote about ‘Twitter’s ability to cross traditional social boundaries and inequalities’ these abilities of such a social networking device have never been experienced before in the pre-digital social identity platform. As much truth that digital social networking can mask the reality of who we are dealing with, there is an equally powerful element that hiding, omitting or not publicizing certain elements can far more easily bridge the gap. This gap caused by discriminated cultures, religions, appearance, and even deformities.

Yes Digital Identities are a new form of Social Identity. This new form of social identity can be extremely powerful given the extent to which people can ‘Alter’ their digital selves if and when desired. Chris Brichell wrote, ‘An individual’s ability to change form, age, gender, position or sexual orientation.’ These are just some of the variables we can change about ourselves online to portray our Digital Identities. More specific characteristics people can change and often do are: Physical prowess, Eye colour, Education, Temperament, Popularity, Height, Weight etc. Other forms of Altering of digital selves are the ability to Omit certain sensitive information that reflects a person’s digital self, such as the fact that a person’s sibling or parent is or was in Prison or sees a Shrink.

Other forms of social identity are youth culture. Only decades ago youth culture meant deviance. Youth deviating from the norm, from rules, from society. Poole, M & Germov observed that ‘Before the 1970s, youth cultures meant deviance, a threat to public order.’ This threat to public order still exists but isn’t readily stigmatized by the mainstream as it used to be but accepted with a cringe by most who have no doubt been there before.

The Dating Game
The online dating aspect of social identity brings with it power that usually has not been there before for many. This power is the ability to ‘Hail’ potential buyers in the online dating marketplace. Brickell mentions the action ‘to hail somebody’, ‘The state interpellates its subjects into discourse by hailing them, much as a policeman might hail the bystander with the call of ‘Hey, you there!’ These are usually in the form of attention grabbing profile pictures, profile headlines and further personal information given freely. Positive and negative hailing is commonplace. The positive hailing to potential buyers are, ‘hey look at me, I’m sensational and I am available.’ The negative hailing are the ones that narrow the goal posts in ways such as, ‘only reply if you are… if you look like… if you are financially set…’ Brickell’s ‘such power-laden statements force us to consider whether or not we have the qualities demanded by others, and to ask a series of questions: Is that me?’ Another form of this online dating is the old newspaper dating columns. These newspaper ads to a degree had the ability to ‘hail’ the prospective buyer, and the ability to force the prospective buyer to ask oneself a series of questions. Questions that were most likely not even in the ad. Using these two examples of online dating and newspaper dating I’ve drawn very similar descriptions between them but the power of the online cannot be compared to the newspaper form of dating of yesteryear. The online world has opened up many more bigger doors, broken down stigma and therefore the types, cultures, ages and even religion affiliated God fearing have no doubt embraced the online dating with far less apprehension. In this way many more have developed a digital self that has far less scruples that their social self.

The Gamer
The digital identity of the gamer. Identifying oneself as a gamer has changed. The more mature and responsible and even female sector have become the serious player. In ways that a car driver is to a race-car driver, as a video game-player is to a ‘gamer.’ This way of comparing them takes the ‘gamer’ image up a notch or two. Shaw states that, ‘How people identify as gamers, is a different question from who counts as a gamer.’ It takes the individual to rate oneself as a gamer, the individual has the self-appointed authority owing to their seriousness to label themselves through their digital identity as a ‘gamer,’ and if they don’t, their digital peers will. The digital identity versus the social identity regarding the world of the ‘gamer’ opens new doors never before opened. Strong positives and strong negatives. Shaw mentions that ‘Gamer identity exists in relation to, but is not determined by, other identities like gender, race, and sexuality.’ In the social worlds’ we build: gender, race and sexuality a lot of the time and play the main roles in our social status, but in the digital world we build, we can change, we enhance, we even invent whole new beings that don’t fall prey to the usual discriminations that the (physical) social world inflicts on us consciously or unconsciously. This constitutive power enables the digital self to have more ability and more freedom than the traditional social self could ever have had before. As Brickell wrote ‘We become our pages of Facebook, Myspace and anywhere else we announce our presence to an online audience’ This constitutive power spreads even more wider in digital areas such as ‘the world of the gamer’. This digital self outreaches any power that the social self once had, such as YouTube, Vimeo, Twitter and FaceTime. The cyber connections we are making more and more easily are staggering especially for the ‘gamer’ to put their wits against a person in another country, a country their government may even be at war with.

The New Reality
In conclusion to this discussion on the digital self versus the social self, the scary amount of information that is readily available to the digital self that was not as readily available to our old social selves. This has to be self governed if one wants to keep any form of sanity in the digital world. Andrejevic writes ‘The psychological reaction to such an overabundance of information and competing expert opinions is to simply avoid coming to conclusions’ The good old days when one would find out new information away from the digital, sadly have gone, and to shut off completely from the digital to hopefully stay informed have gone. To keep the sanity we are living in a digital world where more than ever before we are over informed – if we let that happen. The necessity to sift through information before being inundated with the oversupply of sometimes dangerous information has to become a priority.

The Looking Glass
Shanyang Zhao writes ‘We see ourselves through the “looking glass”’ We don’t see ourselves as we are but through what others tend to judge who we are. This socialization we go through builds our view of ourselves and mainly our digital selves. Our digital selves having a far quicker self appraisal system than the social self once had. Zhao says ‘we come to see ourselves through the lens of others.’ The ability to take out of the equation the element of the physical and build a whole new digital self – or many selves. These many digital selves keep evolving in more and more aspects of our lives whether we planned for this or not. Zhao writes ‘The self is an integrated structure that constantly evolves. To say that there is a “digital self” is not to suggest that a person’s self is actually split into physical and digital parts, but to acknowledge the salience of the impact of the “E-Audience”’ This E-Audience whether we look for it or not becomes the unseen commentators in our social self lives because our social self lives have morphed into the digital. Ever so gradually that most morphing goes unnoticed. To pry apart our digital self from our social selves has become an impossibility.

Rewrite Our DNA With Frequency, Vibration And Words! 

The Genes we were born with we needn’t be resolved to, As a Sparkling New Potential is Right in our hands for The Super DNA.

The Blueprint of our lives or more commonly known as The Genetic Code, turns out to be far more influenced by us than we ever thought. This (biological) genetic code we are all handed, (however randomly), good, bad or indifferent is an extremely advanced networking system not too unlike our (artificial) internet networking system.

ReWriting, ReDesigning and ReEvolving our Genetic Codes has become evidentially an everyday event, aware or unaware as we move from day to day. These tools we have at our disposal are Frequencies and Words.

Junk DNA, this is previously thought of as the 90% unused DNA, NOT being used in building proteins. Researchers claim that a portion of our DNA is DNA of a Higher Purpose – not junk at all. 

The forming of our biological organisms is therefore greatly influenced by Frequencies, Vibrations and The Spoken Word. Spiritual and Esoteric Healers have been aware of this belief system way back – Human Language, Words and Directed Thought is the conscious communication our genetic network system responds to. Quietening the Mind through directed conscious thought and meditation is a process we use consciously or unconsciously to communicate with our DNA. The more knowledge and maturity we acquire the more potential will attune.

The many different uses for our DNA such as biological building, network communication, and storage of data indicate that the rules of human grammar/language to us molecularly are unequivocally linked. Which appeared first – Human Language or Modern DNA? Is it a coincidence or a knee-jerk reaction the intricacies of both evolutionary timelines? It is therefore hard to separate human language from our genetic codings network?

The use of Autogenous Training is a Powerful Tool in directed communication to our DNA. Autogenous: meaning – arising from within or from a thing itself. The physical awareness and sensations we bring to our consciousness through communication is not unlike Hypnosis. Hypnosis is primarily the subconsciousness we connect overtly. Autogenous Methods: we connect with (frequency, vibration and words) far deeper down into our molecular building blocks. This notion goes even so far as to the idea of transferring information patterns from one DNA to another, entirely through Autogenous Methods. This method putting into our own hands the capability of ReWriting, ReDesigning and ReEvolving inside ones own lifetime.

These scientific notions go even further and deeper and comparing our ever intricate personal networking systems to even the notion of worm holes is a monster stretch. Just as the hypothesis of worm holes is the possibility of limitless space and time travel, same as a possible hypothesis of going the other way deep down inside of us. Such tunnels or bridges we cannot yet fully fathom or even start to comprehend, yet deep down our consciousness is eager to learn and build the way.

Such is Our Intelligent Human Nature.

Want True Happiness? Live Now and Stop Comparing Ourselves To The Past, Future Or Others. Be Here Now!

We all have inclinations to compare ourselves with others, measuring our worth, happiness and achievement in life. Good or bad, these associations only rob ourselves of real contentment.

Our paths are unique in every way. We need to remind ourselves that other people’s paths are nothing like our own. We have to take ourselves out of the future. The psychology of happiness will arrive when such and such happens – never quite happens, as we are creatures that keep creating new goals to strive for and attain, continually replacing old goals. A never ending searching cycle.

If we remove from the equation the ‘happiness-reward-association’ we put on goals, and replace this with a ‘natural-progression-association’ we take out the ‘shallow element’. Break the mental link we have so much been accustomed to throughout our lives that tell us that possessions, achievements, experiences equal happiness. 

Have we ever been shopping for a few goodies such as clothes or new gizmos, come home with half a dozen items and only been truly happy with half the stuff? The so-called retail therapy just may have gone the other way. They call it retail therapy for a reason: to help bring back happiness through purchasing something nice. Don’t let an item equal happiness. Take a walk as the sun comes up or when the sun goes down and remind ourselves that this is far more important than a new piece of cloth or a new piece of plastic that we somehow traded an old piece of paper or card for. The whole world wants something, try not to lower ourselves and our happiness to being a mere commodity that can be cheaply traded. We are a (breathing) commodity with feelings. A commodity with heart. A commodity that is far higher than any material object commodity. 

Replace our mental token system with: possessions, achievements, experiences are merely an everyday event like having breakfast or lunch. Start to summon happiness on the fly. Be in charge of the moment. Turn the reward system on its head. Shock those around us with the ‘difference in needs and happiness’. 

By all means constantly strive for the greatest outcomes in our situations and surroundings, all these WILL become faster and more attainable as we mature in our souls. We start by just momentarily slowing down and appreciating and really smiling at the tiny things like buying a chocolate bar and truly enjoying it. Even taking this to the next level and reminiscing about this chocolate bar and how good this chocolate bar was for the rest of the day, or the rest of the week! Other such things as actions in sharing, sharing something with others. Adding something of value to someone’s life that didn’t require trading commodities but pure creativity, time and affection.

We welcome happiness at any given moment from within, we take back control and we stop kneeling to the Products of China and so on… We take the gamble out of our lives as to: will this item, (no matter how big or small) make me happy. 

Our happiness is ubiquitous, contagious and free in our past, present and soul-future.

Live Forever – Mind Uploading To Make It So!

How close are humans to the reality of uploading our brains and enjoying the benefits of Immortality, and is it truly our natural destiny, (or never ending story)?

There is only one opponent to immortality, and this is death. It goes without saying that up until this pie in the sky technology kicks in, death is a reality, death is inevitable. To beat this inevitability we must either shift our consciousness, or possibly conquer and prevent human cell breakdown. Whichever comes first IS the Holy Grail. Will this holy grail become a basic human right, a right to live forever?

First things first is the giant task of completely understanding the mysteries of the human brain for the ultimate or partial upload to take place. This achievement will free a human from the physical ‘ball and chain’ of the all too common collision course we are all on with breakdown of the cells.

The big questions beckon as the notion of immortality knocks. Over-population, indefinite health-care, legalities, affordability are just some of the pending issues facing a horizon of a million more questions stacking.

Character, personality, feelings, tastes, humour, intelligence, memories, phobias, habits, grudges, passions and love are all part and parcel of this transfer, whether it be into a new body or cradled into an artificial stationary unit, of course awaiting robotics to catch up. These are just some more elements and questions of a revolution our planet will undoubtedly see (or endure).

Understanding our brains to a tee is still the biggest step in advancement in this frontier. Capturing thoughts, memories, ideas is key. Transferring a wave of consciousness we conjure millisecond after millisecond, like casting a fishing rod into the Deep Mysterious Mariana Trench and expecting a viable catch each throw. Just as this race for advancement in this field zeros in, thus is the conquering of a multitude of psychological and brain mysteries still in the too hard basket. Alzheimer’s, Dementia, Schizophrenia, Depression, and many more will surely be problems of the distant past.

Deep Mapping and monitoring on an ongoing basis is surely part of this milestone of discovery. Gathering of new information, recall of memories, conscious and unconscious thoughts that make up our wondrously deep mental world. Tapping deep into these workings is last century’s Everest Climb.

New questions arise: these being the question of a soul and if so, the influence of a soul on our thoughts. Can our mental worlds be copied into a computer-like device and still ‘think’ as we do but outside of our bodies? Is it even possible that ‘this thinking’ outside of our bodies can be even more clear than ever before, wave upon wave of productive and creative thinking unleashed away from the ball and chain? Is it inevitable that ‘ethics and governing’ of such technology will naturally have to be implemented to protect any vulnerability in individuals or even ‘targeted vulnerability’. These very real concerns are not unlike the premise of the film Inception, where information is extracted and stolen through a victim’s dreams. The Mind uploading concept could very well enable unscrupulous behaviour as to steal or ‘implant’ thoughts and ideas or ‘instructions’ into an unaware victim of the unthinkable.

Another scenario is the real possibility of duplicating our brains, minds, mental worlds as a safely net – fall back system. An insurance system in case an unexpected unthinkable occurs. An accident, a stroke, a sudden brain trauma of any kind that could put at risk our normal cogent process of thought and decision making. A backup of all memories in case of ‘fade’. This looming technology can even replace exotic unsafe travel to far off destinations, experiencing all the usual perception senses intake of a trip while safe in our own homes. Underwater and Space discovery and so on…

Ones and zeros of a computer system, is this what makes us who we are? Once removed from the physical, can we still form the same thoughts and memories or even laugh? Is it from then on just a survival form of existence similar to a lifeboat (limited navigation). A motionless and stagnant state with thoughts but no real awareness that make us, us. These varied scenarios may all come to fruition along the timeline path of the holy grail and yet all natural (organic) thought transferring or duplicating may just be around the corner. 

Similar to an early computer that fills a room advancing so much as to presently fitting on one’s own wrist – all in a person’s lifetime. Miracles of human collaborative-thought and advancement knows no bounds.

AI Singleton Rulership: Futuristic Form Of New Government, Or Humanity’s Last Invention?

A New World Order of a ‘Single’ Agency of decision-making of the highest level, to effectively eliminate any threats from outside and within, to carry out executive orders without question, and countless other abilities. This futuristic model of government is The AI Singleton.

A yet hypothetical AI Singleton would use many tactics to preserve order, such as: Mind Control, Environmental Wide Scale Threats to Humanity, Big Brother Monitoring, Selective Human Breeding, Genetic Manipulation among just a few…

Alongside all these possible dire images of a dark unfriendly future, a possibility of quite the opposite is an equal probability: Freedom of thought, expression, kindness. No more warring nations. Environmental Stability. Civil privacy, highest level free medical technology, food, housing, education, travel and so on…

These are some of the many roads (outcomes) an AI Singleton of the future could possibly table for our ever changing mental and physical landscape we call earth. With the potential of a far higher collective intelligence (on our side) this planet and many more have a colossal chance of the limitless.

The ways in which forming of such an ‘AI Singleton Rulership’ are many, a transcending upload, a unique moral code that gets passed on from one group to another, and natural evolution of current governments mixed with the inevitable Artificial Intelligence amidst it’s decision making hierarchy.

An AI Singleton may not purely be an agency that just thinks and works on its own. Whereas a liberal democratic government with many different ministries, all somewhat independently taking care of their own corners of responsible government. Highly influenced by public opinion. An AI Singleton may very well actually not even look like an AI Singleton. Instead, having an appearance of the average man and woman in high up (approachable) positions that we all admire, trust and relate to.

What effectively sets this futuristic Rulership apart from any other is the ability to ‘Solve Problems’ at the highest level. The ability to avoid catastrophic events is of second nature to such an entity. Having extreme foresight of the human condition as a whole.

A Huge Responsibility AND/OR Choice Is On Our Shoulders: The down consequences of such an inevitable revolution of the ‘AI’ will be that the domination on earth humans have had WILL come to an end. With great intelligence comes great power. If intelligence equals power, then power will not be ours for very much longer, we will have knowingly given up this power. Humans will consequently be answerable to this power. This will be a permanent change that ‘could’ be looked back on or not. A challenge the human race has never seen before.

The two world wars of last century were catylists in forming of The League of Nations and The United Nations. These organisations could be the ‘be all’ and the ‘end all’ of such an ‘AI’ uprising, depending on the views of the time. Resistance toward AI will relent as ‘sure and firm set earth’ and ‘common sense’ of the time rises to the occasion.

The AI Singleton could be just a stepping stone along the path to something far more incomprehensible, yet when it does arrive, and surely it will, we won’t know what we would have done without one, or will we?         

Cyberocracy: Information As Power – Cyberocracy Rulership Is Coming?

Ruling with Information! According to futurology – the way that we are headed IS Cyberocracy. The effective use of information to essentially rule as ‘Alternative Responsible Government’. 

A speculative system as up until now there has been no precedent of such a government. Although a rising number of models exist, Cyberocracy stands a very high chance of becoming the norm for many nations.

Information, and the control of information here is key. Next step in political evolution? Modern times have seen many new types of people being allowed into the ruling arena thanks to Democracy and Bureaucracy. Democracy and Bureaucracy are forms of government that took shape to replace Aristocracy – The High-Born in society ruling. Theocracy – society ruled by church. Can another change along the ruling timeline possibly be Cyberocracy? Through revolution comes change, revolution of information and communication technology can and will pave the way. Ultimately information technology will shape politics more than we have ever seen.

Living in a Post-Industrial Society, informing and communicating take the place of the once was before, the capital and labor devices of – Industrial Society. Information transforms and moulds power. Traditional modes of power are transformed and the physical/material parameters of before are replaced by the new non-physical and non-material intellectual currencies of Cyber-Enlightenment.

Many current world leaders will go down in history as being of the last of their kind as this radical new form of government will surely take place of the old political models. Many nations and societies will experience new hybrid forms of rulership. Different blends that suit the current sociology of the time. Although many pending changes to rulership do not come without a dark side, and many in this field of speculation have very little or no idea just what this new form of rulership will even look like.

Cyberocracy is a form of government that redefines and builds new relations and roads between the public sector and the private sector. These new inroads of communication will ultimately be the dynamic that only cross-pollinating of Information/Technology between the people can achieve.

Decision making by Information becomes the heart and soul. Cultural, sociological, psychological, environmental and even new-age spiritualism will become the emphasis of new policy-making/opinions of the people – public or private. Being highly reactive to situations using the most relevant information at hand inevitably will lead to AI Technology for lightening speed help/decision making and even more closer, personable help/decision making that current systems just would not be able to compete with. Thinking alongside the AI’s. Eventually a government – machine-ruled, taking digital democracy to a new level – Cyberocracy!

Just as new combinations of old ideas are mixed to form new thinking, eventually the creation of entirely new thought takes place. Tools and platforms that have taken us through these changes are notably: The Printing Press, The Typewriter, The Abacus. Old thought goes through a process and comes out as new thought, whether we are mostly aware of this or not. Similarly, the ever-changing affect of people thinking and working together on new levels never seen before. Same is the concept of humans working and ‘thinking’ alongside Artificial Intelligence. Quite often a stand out difference (from human) will not even be noticed.

This increasingly interconnected world will always be on the build one way or another. Population levels, ever-changing occupational paths, habitation of other worlds getter closer – Information IS Key. Does this unequivocally mean that the ‘human condition’ is on the improve, or are we just going sideways? Nevertheless ‘information’ is inherently what humans all crave. Cyber-Speed Information could very well lead toward all individuals living in a Cyber-Bubble – electing their own personal-government that helps/decides crucial affairs minute by minute. Would this cause more political division in societies or would it merely leave everyone to their own devices/bubbles? We create our very own ‘round table’ governments in our lives out of the AI Sphere.

The hierarchy and The Top Sight: Teams, whether human, non-human, (or mixed) from different levels and branches still rely on hierarchy. This hierarchy still needs to exist in any possible form of effective teams of leadership to be productive in any measure. Structures of the open kind, processes more fluid, more management at the ‘top sight’. More central understanding of the big picture. The most precious of all the commodities known to humans – IS the intellectual big picture.

It has been widely known that Communist States fear all stages of the information revolution, (especially being in the hands of the people). The revolution in communication forces nations to reconsider all they once knew, to open up and adapt to new systems.

As new technology favours democracy – so too Cybercracy embraces the Intellectual on the Open Forward Path in a Landscape of the Cyber.

Noocracy: Future Possible Forms Of Government That Could Possibly Rule The World – One Day!

The coming and going of political systems in this world shown throughout history, the ever faster advances in technology, social belief systems and the trends of change prove to us that time and again this trend of change will undoubtedly continue.

Noocracy: Governments of the Wise. Vladimir Vernadsky has been quoted in saying, “a social and political system based on the priority of the human mind” – an idealistic ‘world brain’ specifically setup for world governance. Plato famously quoted as philosophical observation, “government of the wise”.

It has been argued that Noocracy is a viable Political System, a system that basically is Natural Evolution of Democracy. Noocracy outgrows Democracy in a natural course of evolution – a political and SOCIAL System setup through the priorities of the human mind. A system that can adapt and bend, a system that is conscious and operates on autonomous branches of its own system.

Not too unlike a hive of bees. A hive-like wide community of the same mind. These same minds all interlinked as these individual minds – (both natural and artificial) are unified, most likely through an informational network such as an ‘Intranet’ solely for the the governing of a future world.

Another term for this is ‘mathematikoi’ back in the days of Pythagoras. A political system, (A Utopian System or Place) known as “City of the Wise”. This was planned by Pythagoras to be built in Italy by him and his followers. Although in modern history, this radical political system is known as Noocracy.

Also known as “The Authority Of The Crowd”. Plato defined this system as a The Entire Human Race’s Future Political System. The power of the collective brain as opposed to seperate individuals ‘speaking for’ the wider community. Mikhail Epstein illustrated Noocracy as, “The Thinking Matter Increases It’s Mass In Nature.” The future of humanity will evolve political systems ever so forwardly that Noocracy will undoubtedly have happily descended upon us.

The positives of Noocracy are that this system operates without the usual belief systems prevalent in many voters’ behavioural and cognitive minds. These Being: most wide community members only process political information in a mostly biased fashion, or they simply find the process of storing all this current political information as being useless to their own lives and surroundings, or sadly (yet in reality) many potential voters consciously prefer to remain ignorant.

A Political System of Noocracy effectively takes out of the system the elements such as: irrationality, misinformation, ignorance. Taking out of the equation wasted votes. Far more appropriately putting the power of the vote in the hands of the purely informed on all matters. Completely taking irrationality out of the vote. Removing the element of self-motivation and partisan stimulators and replacing these with dispassionate and 100% rational mental cogitations. Clearer decision making, hence the non-existence of aligning oneself with a political party (or Team for that matter), the age old inherent ‘tribal psychology’ we find increasingly hard to diss-attach from – ideological inclinations or not.

Rational Voting Is Key. Ongoing Education, Calculated Choices equal better policies. Acquisition of more and correct information ultimately eliminates mis-use of power. Current systems (democracies) also have the very real presence of personal incentives that drive politicians, policy makers and voters to subjective reasonings, as opposed to purely objective reasonings.

How is a wise man or woman identified? Is it through level of education, type of education, philosophy, religion, scientific thought, age, experience – ‘Ambitious People Will Always Seek To Appear Wise’. The ambitious will always find loopholes, easy roads, plenty of backs to climb over on the way up. Appearing wise is far easier than BEING wise. In history humans do not always support wise people. As good a man as Dwight Eisenhower was, if wisdom was paramount in (voting) decision making in America at the time, Adlai Stevenson would easily of been rationally voted in instead of Eisenhower. Being highly intelligent doesn’t necessarily make a person a good leader. 

Along with the fallbacks that the current democratic political parties and systems have is that humans in power do not, and will not, consider all sides. They frequently above all else believe, and or talk themselves into their next speech exclaiming that THEY unequivocally have the answer having far more REAL WEIGHT than ‘real consideration’.

A New World System of Noocracy, however long it takes to happen, will not only be The High Conscious Society but also The High Empathic ‘Extant’ Ever-Evolving Society. It is time to create and share. Time to collaborate with our environment and others. An environment where food and critical education are of ever-abundance. No need for borders, labels, race conventions. “Live Long And Prosper”. 

This is the priority of the Human Mind!
