Mr. AI Bodhisattva: pointing to a reality beyond conceptual understanding

16.července

In Buddhism, our consciousness (vijñāna) with the body’s death doesn't die. It can adapt itself, if fertilization is successful, to a new embryo and with it a new carnal existence. Science teaches us that DNA is a fractal antenna. In...

The great magic trick

27.ledna
The typical human being interfaces with an illusory world through an illusory body. In other words, the primary has become more or less attached to the secondary (i.e., illusion) so that it never seems fulfilled. Yet, the mere fact of...
