There's just something so horrifying about being trapped inside a machine, powerless. A great horror movie plot, if I were into such. But I did find the other account to which I had referred. Here it is, from Convoluted Universe Book 3.
How is the human body not a machine exactly?
That may be an intriguing philosophical question - and I don't understand enough about the metaphysics of a human body to answer that. But the question misses the point.
What is clearly different between a human body and the above accounts is freedom. We have it, they don't, and that makes all the difference. The above accounts describe ultimate enslavement.
What’s most horrifying to me about it is not that it’s possible... because it could very well be... but that there are humans who seem to consider it their life’s work to bridge things like Buddhism with human soul machine-enslavement !!
What sounds like a better transhuman future? Living as a slaved robot controlled by elites or living as a free human-dolphin hybrid?? Yeah I’m still holding on to that hope for our 4D future.
I haven’t read every thought in this thread but I am thanking my god that I believe in what Ra says, positive STO earth is what’s going to happen.
