There is someone light-years ahead of that chimp...

Hi there,
I recently had seen an article about how a chimp used planning skills to attack humans. I copy pasted that link, given here: (http://sg.news.yahoo.com/afp/20090310/tts-us-sweden-animals-research-zoology-972e412.html) on to my Google talk status message saying that the chimps are catching up with the BJP and Congress political parties in India. Of course a similar conclusion can be drawn towards Malaysian politics as well, with the recent spate of 'gutter politics' of spreading photos and other methods used to defame upcoming political leaders.

As usual, the way the Universe works, I was proven wrong by this article which came up on Yahoo! News some days back.

MP who submits himself for examination every year
Tue, Mar 24 09:14 AM
Chennai, March 24 (IANS) Ever heard of an Indian MP submitting an annual self-appraisal report to the people of his constituency?
Meet 59-year-old M. Ramadass of the Pattali Makkal Katchi (PMK), a doctorate in economics and an economics professor-turned politician who is charting a new course in politics.
He is the only member in the outgoing Lok Sabha and perhaps the first Indian MP to submit to the people of Puducherry an annual report of his activities as their representative.
Asked if the concept was borrowed from his academic field, the first generation politician told IANS: 'I felt it is my duty to give an account of my activities to the people. I want to be accountable to my people.'
His annual reports contain the welfare schemes and various projects brought to Puducherry by him, debates in which he participated in the Lok Sabha, his attendance in parliament, the utilisation of the MP Local Area Development Scheme (MPLADS) and the protests and even social events in which he took part.
By his own admission, Ramadass, who hails from a fishermen community, has taken part in 151 parliament debates, raised 380 questions and has scored 94 percent attendance.
According to a study by PRS Legislative Research, an independent research initiative, nearly 60 MPs including former prime minister H.D. Deve Gowda and actor-politicians Dharmendra and Govinda did not ask a single question in the 14th Lok Sabha. Sixty-seven MPs asked 10 or fewer questions.
Admirers of Ramadass say he was instrumental in bringing to Puducherry the Rs.330 million Karaikal port project, improving rail connectivity, and expanding railway reservation counters at Karaikal, Mahe and Yanam.
'Our MP was instrumental in the conduct of local body elections in Puducherry after a four-decade gap. He was also instrumental in devolution of powers to the local bodies,' said one PMK worker.
Ramadass is also credited with elevating Puducherry's classification to that of New Delhi -- so that the house rent allowance (HRA) for government employees goes up.
As to the utilisation of funds under the MPLADS, against his entitlement of Rs.100 million (Rs.10 crore) for five years, Ramadass issued work orders for Rs.125 (Rs.12.5 crore). 'I have effectively used the unspent money of my predecessor. My focus is on improving the basic amenities for the people,' he said.
Way back in 1986 Ramadass was in the limelight for a brief period when he won the National Prize for the best suggestions on the making of the Indian budget.
It was PMK founder S. Ramadoss who convinced him to join politics.
'Our leader wanted educated people to enter politics. My wife was very apprehensive about my entering politics, from being the registrar of Pondicherry University. A lot of cajoling had to be done,' he recalled.
In 2004, Ramadass was elected to the Lok Sabha, securing 241,653 votes (49.95 percent), defeating the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) candidate who got 171,472 votes (35.65 percent).
Today his services are utilised by the PMK, which submits alternative budgets for Tamil Nadu and Puducherry, and also for preparing the party's election manifesto.
As an academician he has guided seven Ph.Ds, 40 M.Phils and 15 M.S. theses. He has also authored five books and has 45 research papers to his credit.
At a time when even small-level politicians speed around the cities in big fuel guzzling utility vehicles, Ramadass is satisfied with his old Tata Indica car.
He is confident of not only getting the party's nod to contest again from Puducherry but also of winning. His annual reports, he knows, have won the hearts of his voters.

This is of course something that is definitely needed in India, if the governance of such a huge economy is to be done properly. Yet, I feel that this is something which even Malaysian voters need to demand from their elected representatives as well. An annual report of the constituency, on what was the money flow in and what was the money flow out of the constituency. What were the unemployment levels? What is the development level?

What efforts did the local representattive take to bring in investments? to bring in investors? to bring in residents and increase Cukai Pintu revenues? There can be a more methodical and scientific approach to nominating and voting for correct representatives if a study about the constituency is done and shared among the people of the constituency, increasing their own understanding and pride of the local area.

We do want to serve the 'rakyat' right?

Prophetic? Just commmon sense...

Hey there,

It is pretty interesting. After a long time, I posted in my blog. One, was about the way economy should behave. How an economy of advanced humans would look like? Followed by a rough, "imaginary" guideline to get there. Of the few options, I chose the android servant as the most appropriate morally.

Lo and behold, HRP-4C is now introduced to the world. She's a robot, given the face of an average Japanese woman. The body still looks robotic though. The best part, she is only 43kg. After the unveiling, the Japanese have mentioned that she would be walking the runways in an upcoming fashion show. I have to admit, that is an interesting publicity stunt. To showcase a female robot in an arena where "the best looking" female humans dominate.

Another point I made in that write-up was the way companies are behaving towards employees and just cutting them out. I mentioned that there should be not only a business ramp-up strategy, in times of distress there should be a phase-down strategy as well. One of which is of course to actually recommend their employees to job seek agencies / other employers.

Lo and behold, I just read in the news today how it has been happening in other parts of the world and now it is becoming a serious business opportunity in India as well. "Outplacement" is what they call it. Lucrative business actually. These outplacement specialists in India now charge INR 4 lakhs for Managerial level people; INR 2 lakhs for Executive and experienced people; and INR 1 lakh for junior placements, which is ok as that would be the typical 2-3 months salary of those employees given normal times. At the end of the day, everyone is happy, hopefully.

Anyway, this was just a blog post to wonder do I have prophetic capabilities? I mean one knows that doing meditation helps you see things clearer. Of course, then you superimpose it with current data to come up with intelligent future solutions. But to actually be able to make those conclusions, just before announcements about the same are being done. That's a an interesting thought. Coincidence.

Coincidence is a powerful word, mind you. It has happened often enough at critical junctures of my life, I started believing in the idea of Fate. A recent speech by my Guru highlighted the fact that there is no such thing as Fate, which is written by Someone up above as the way we would live and die. There are however environmental factors which do influence us. Our parents and friends. Our hobbies and the people we meet in that line of sports, activity.

National athletes, if you notice do not seem to be fazed by strong competition. Their highly competitive environment trains their mind, to be stronger than the average person. Children growing up in musical families, tend to take part in musical competitions and hone their musical talents even though they may be born math geniuses.

It is really difficult to be born in a family or surrounding which entrusts and encourages a certain set of values and feel that we don't fit. It really is hard to break the mold. I decided that I had to break the mold for my family. I went overseas to study, post high school. I still have to thank my dad for giving me that opportunity. I went and lived in Australia with a bunch of really successful people. That was what helped me think out of the box. Thinking "HOW?" I can break the mold.

Mr. John George, was a partner at a law firm in Darwin, Australia. Extremely knowledgable man and someone I didn't know how to speak up to. He was a lawyer and I having been brought up in an environment where I was expected to listen, did not utilise the chance I had, did not learn how to argue for my rights, did not learn from him all the stuff that I could have.

Dr. Masoud Mahmood, was an opthalmologist in Darwin, Australia. I only stayed with his family for 2 months but I realised how intellectual this man is. He listened to classical music which was my first introduction into that world. Dr. Masoud was also learning how to do Visual Basic 6 programming on his own. I had my first introduction to serious PC programming flipping through his book as well. Dr. Masoud also had stricter rules, but yeah it was fun being with them.

Last but not least was the stay with Oma. :) This deserves special mention. When I got there, I thought I had finally landed in a "normal" Aussie home. I stayed with Oma. Her daughter Connie and son-in-law James Koch lived like less than 10Km away. They had 3 beautiful children. Jameson Koch, Talia Rose Koch, Tamsin Louise Koch. So, yeah I was more like an Uncle to these kids. Lol!~ Oma was a retired nurse, while Connie was teaching at the community centre at that time. Under Connie's house they had a pool table. They also had a Japanese exchange student, Dais living with them. I've never had any pool game as satisfying as the last game I played with Dais, until I met Elly in MMU I guess. It was good ol' family love that I learnt from them. I learnt how they are much more open in showing it, in taking part in family functions, in joining activities that made the family get closer.

These are the things I learnt, by a simple change in environment for a year. I also went out on my own to do a few things. I wish I still had the contact of all those people who changed my life while I was there. 10 years have gone. Their influence still remains strong. I still see with different eyes. The extent of their influence was only felt by me when dealing with my cousin recently. 10 years I had, to influence him and to show him all the possibilities that I have seen. But, telling him and letting him experience it are polar opposites.

I made an extremely grave error in forgetting to tell my aunt to register him for an AFS Intercultural Exchange experience. It ends up even after repeatedly telling him a lot of things, he still looks at Malaysian solutions. He didn't take effort to search for the list of courses that are being offered in Aeronautical Engineering which is what he is interested in doing. That is a typical malay attitude, not taking effort, which even I had. Which, I still have. Yet, I know its effect on me and try my best to overcome it to be successful, knowledgable and loving like the people I mentioned.

Without the new blueprint of what is possible, there is no attempt to let go of what exists.

Life would be just following the few factors that dictated our lives since birth unless something really "shocks" us into taking our life into our own hands. Believing in coincidences and Fate until something tells us that life need not be so. For me it was a change in environment. I tried telling people about the change in environment that I experienced. To be able to appreciate what else can be done in life now, I realise that they needed the change in environment themselves.

I cannot afford to make anymore mistakes in my life. I have wasted time enough. It is time once again to take the effort needed to break myself from my own mental blocks and processes. Once again to take the effort to break the mold. Once again to live a life of dreams...

The Laws of Robot Manufacturing

Hey guys,

The contents of this post were floating in my head as I got to the android part in my previous post. In fact one could say I wanted to badly write this down, which is why I could push myself to finish up the final part there. LoL!~

I've read Isaac Asimov's Foundation Series. It's one of the most phenomenal series I've ever read. People would remember his other work, which was cinematised as I,Robot (albeit not really following the book, mind you!).

Fun Fact: The Foundation series takes place, in the very far future (some 20,000 years roughly), within the same universe. If you liked I, Robot and continued the other books in the series to its end, you would have seen within:

The 3 Laws of Robotics

1) A Robot may not injure a Human being, or through inaction cause a human being to come to harm
2) A Robot must obey orders given to it by Human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law
3) A Robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

Eventually the plot introduces the Zeroth Law, but I digress. While writing the earlier piece, and thinking about a servant force of androids, I came to a main point saying, "the reliance on Androids must be phased down and eliminated as time goes on". This is to ensure we become a race more 'elf-like'. Instead of a race of 'dreamers', we'd be totally free from any form of Needs thus never experiencing deficiencies. 'Dreamers'; by forgetting the blood, sweat, and tear soaked histories of Humanity; would restart a feudal system within 10-15 generations.

To avoid all this when the time is right, self-transcended individuals, whether ready or not, should just switch off the androids. One problem remains. Self-Transcended individuals in search of a peak experience for themselves and humanity, might be driven to create the "perfect android"; mass producing it within the Enclaves, thus complicating the whole termination phase. This is the nature of humans, searching for perfection in everything we do. Nothing can be left at 95%. I foresee someone, somewhere continuing to improving the android servant force, making them better and eventually "perfect".

What if, the perfect (or near perfect) androids decide they do NOT want to lose accumulated data and stored analysis results? They do NOT want to stop further inflow of information? They do NOT want to be shutdown when the time comes? One of the essential parts, if I programmed a "perfect android", would be the circuits or programming that tell it to "exist", "continuously learn", and "apply learnt knowledge".

If even someone like ME would ensure my android is at least as capable as that, I am sure pure robotics manufacturers would have thought of better guidelines; to ensure androids survive better, react to environments quicker, and tolerate more abuse before succumbing to external forces. Hence the dilemma of being unable to shut them down, when the time comes, is higher.

These then are the guidelines that we need to follow to ensure that robotics manufacturing does not get out of hand:

1) A ROBOT must never be perfect: This is the cardinal rule. No robot must be made in a way that it is shielded from ALL types of energy. They have to be either non-heat resistant or non-electromagnetic resistant etc.

Rationale: We need a way to destroy their population. In fact, we need multiple ways the more sophisticated we make them.

2) A ROBOT must never be able to INDIVIDUALLY replicate itself: This is to avoid a potential population explosion: 1,2 4, 8, ... etc.

Rationale: This is to avoid rapid increase in material / energy demands and the resulting imbalances and risks of depleting resources.

3) A ROBOT should gradually change, with the environment: This is to increase the adaptability levels of the robots, as we know Earth is a continuously changing planet. It must happen regardless of the robots' ability to program or re-program themselves.

Rationale: Avoids me rewriting codes, or doing hardware reconstruction for a long time. :) *Jeevan would understand the pain of creating continuous updates for such a complex system.

4) A ROBOT must never have the thinking capability of humans: Yup, this is the easiest way to avoid an apocalyptic, robotic world from dominating our future. Simply said, nothing in their circuits must ever give them the ability to calculate past the limits that we have set them. The absence of sound recognition software may be overcome over time, if the necessary circuits are in place and the robots have enough storage space to analyse raw sound data and detect patterns, given their AI is sophisticated enough. Not having a storage space though, or having an AI without the ability to analyse stored audio data, would eliminate this problem totally.

Rationale: To keep robots from "evolving" beyond their duties. The thinking robot is a fascinating dream, but teaching other humans how to think is a better past time, I feel, as compared to programming robots.

5) ALL waste products of ROBOTs must be bio-degradable: This is a NOT side requirement, and it is very important to think about, since people might be inclined to have nuclear-powered robots, requiring expensive petroleum based lubrications etc. This would only make the existence of every robot a liability on the planet.

Rationale: This is the greatest constraint that all great scientists should have imposed on themselves. It would have led to the rise of another set of technologies and we wouldn't be faced with this hot soup, that we find ourselves uncomfortably in, called 'Global Warming'. In fact, every part of the ROBOT should be safely destructible.

6) A ROBOT must naturally come to destruction: No matter what; all robots must come to a natural destruction. It must be hard-wired into their system. 50 years? 100 years? I personally feel that a ROBOT lifetime HAS to be lesser than our lifetime. The lesser, the better.

Rationale: It helps keep the ROBOT population from getting out of hand, in case we humans become incapable of turning them off. No one robot would be able to take in the full the extent of information, that we are capable of taking in, to build experiences similar to ours.

Now, imagine GOD using those guidelines when Adam was on the drawing board...

Yeah, why haven't we been able to crack the genetic code as easily as we figured out the binary digit system? I mean it's that basic "1" and "0" which is going to be the building block of any robotic software. We can understand this concept easily and yes we are now imagining ways to create completely sophisticated robots that use binary codes. But we are incapable of thinking like God, to create another cell let alone another human. Wouldn't it be interesting if we were purposely "limited" in this way.

What if God was a Being that had the capability to easily understand and assimilate data in Quad-element systems easily? What if that meant the form of control over the building blocks is more complete, and in fact control of different mixes and compositions of metals and chemicals are mere child's play? Instead of having an iPhone, with a processor inside running in binary codes, made of a semiconductor metal; God could make a cell, with a nucleus inside running according to its DNA coding, made of many different types of chemicals and trace metals.

Irrespective of our ability to understand or program our DNA coding, it evolves. Every generation of human slowly adapts to the changing environment even though we are NOT completely shielded from all types of energies. One blast of radioactive energy; maybe from the Sun; would reintroduce all of us back to stupidity, an inability to properly reproduce, and finally a quick death due to DNA damage.

The DNA evolution takes place by fundamentally dividing the race into 2 genders to keep checks and balances. So it controls our population from exploding, as well as introducing variety into our genetics to adapt better, to the changing planetary environment. The raw material our bodies are made up of are also biodegradeable. The interesting part, for me, was realising it means we are broken down in our graves by microorganisms; destructive li'l dudes who are (Divinely?) designed for the job to return the raw material and energy from our bodies back into the planetary flows.

One thing that we can agree on is the fact that whatever we percieve is not the same as the way God would percieve it, even though we would like to believe it is. I am sure there are things that we train our mind to catch, at the limits of our perception, yet would be something totally normal for God to know. Past, present and future making one example; Time-flows. I believe everything is a snap-shot in God's memory. Even if it was not so, it would take almost no effort for God to access that information. But, we are limited from attaining this information. We feel it is almost impossible to even think about analysing this data of time which we feel in bits and pieces. The same goes for gravity and it's law of attraction. Effects are felt but it is something we cannot understand, percieve or fathom. Ok yeah, when the mass of the object is greater it exerts a stronger gravitational pull, but what within that whole mass causes it? Can gravitation be taken out of huge objects? Can objects be taken out of gravitational fields, like pulling a microchip off a circuit board?

Anyways, one thing is for sure. Death is imminent. Our DNA is coded to break down at a certain age and pass the torch on to the next generation of humans. Nobody knows why old age hits as we could have been designed to continuously grow. I think that was God's earlier experiment with the dinosaurs, gone wrong. Beings that just grew and fed on huge trees and ferns, and on each other. We still find fossils of huge underwater dinosaurs that could have crushed a minibus in the middle, just with their jaws. He then reset the system with a smaller, more complex creature. Mainframe to Desktop PC.

Woe to us when the PDAs are introduced...

There is a little bit of Economy in all of us (Final)

...Continued from Part 3
Second: The Need for a Servant Force

Yup, that is the harsh reality of it. And I am not one to dice words when it comes to harsh realities. It is better to say it as it is and accept it. For only then, we would be able to solve exactly that problem.

The highly planned, non-money driven, sub-environments as I mentioned in the earlier part would still drain huge amount of resources from the planet. As long as the whole planet does not follow the Path, there would always be dependency on points outside the system and there would be inefficiences that cannot be dealt with, within the above mentioned Enclaves.

This is the most dangerous point of my argument, timeline-wise. The transition phase. The point where 5 billion humans across the planet ask "Why do I suffer now? Why do only 1.5 billion people reap the rewards of my hard labour?" The questions may be mitigated to a certain extent seeing only children experience the joys in the starting phase. But, there is a need to quickly ramp up the size of the enclaves and as more and more self-transcended individuals grow to adulthood within, the excluded parts of humanity as we know it might find themselves in a moral predicament for outside children.

They'd be left outside the rapidly growing utopian Enclaves. They might find themselves having to work to actually support the Enclaves by selling supplies. Yet to avoid the "old think" and current ways of flawed reasoning from entering the Enclaves there'd definitely be regulations and efforts to stop people from freely entering. Worse, there'd actually be a need to stop people entering and exploiting the Non-Monetary Economy within to sell outside for high profits. In fact, there could be popular support (even from within) for these types of acts in retaliation against the notion of people having to "suffer outside". Of course, continued abuse would just undermine the whole system from working as it should. Controlling humans and driving them away from crime is hard when there is much money involved. Especially when there is also mass support. The best way then is to free as many humans as possible from the external economic cycle, as fast possible to enter the Enclaves.

What if... someone else had to do all the work? What if...humanity could replace the need to work thus being able to enter the Enclaves as and when needed? This is where the need for a Servant Force comes in.

Option 1: Androids - Human like robots that make use of artificial intelligence to perform menial tasks. Very cool, surgical and aesthetically sharp solution. Not to mention that it's extremely hard and well there is the whole "maintaining the robot" issue.

Option 2: Humans - Yup, I mean actually asking other people to serve the Transcended individuals. Using cash as a reward (also known as a VERY BAD IDEA), or capitalising on the natural joys of working with self-transcended individuals. An ethical extension to this idea, can be the Guru-Disciple relationship. Disciples having proven themselves in taking care of the Enclaves eventually find themselves one day initiated by the transcended indviduals to start their own lives within. This also intriduces a chance to acclimatise individuals before they're completely immersed into a new Path for their lives.

Option 3: Clones - Genetically engineered sub-humans. Fierce ethical debate here and I for one do not believe this is viable at all. Self transcended individuals of the future would then be saddled with an additional strain on the System that doesn't exist now. Especially, if for some reason those clones ended up being able to reproduce. Remember, we're trying to solve problems here and not trying to "carry-them-forward". Only reason I have it here at all is because recent stem cell research breakthroughs might have made it easier to do this as opposed to creating Androids.

My personal favourite is Option 1 definitely. This is because there would be a force that would continue to be at the control of future Self-Transcended humans. The existence of such a force would also lead to quick satisfaction of deficiency needs in humans. They would be free to pursue higher goals while menial tasks are performed by androids.

Changes can then be made to reduce the dependency on substances and materials. For example without money and an oversupply of every type of essential items, a lot of legality can be thrown out of the window including reciepts. True paperless environments then can exist, saving trees. Sharing becomes natural and no sane person would have the urge to build a big house for just 3 people to live in. Everyone would be content as long as there exists a personal space for them and this would suddenly solve "housing space crunches". And yeah, 6.5 billion people would ALL have comfortable places to stay WITHOUT having to cut trees for years to come. Space efficiency can be acheieved and maybe hey, we might have the interest to do more gardening.

Not only that. Things would start to slow down and the drilling of oil and natural gases could also be controlled; to only be used in long-distance transportations. Alternative energy sources would be the name of the game for localised energy needs. Imagine how much more potential can the human mind have in creating and refining better energy technologies when it is craving for the "peak experience" of having contributed to the progress of Humanity, as opposed to mundane things like 'making more money' and 'becoming succesful' in relativity to others?

Here comes the real "radical" idea. We can also stop useless chemicals from entering our bodies like coffee and tea. (I'd say cigarettes too but hey, we need something to kill people off fast in the society of the future too, right?) So, why do you need coffee and tea anyways? To keep you awake? To give you a 'kick'? (You can do that by getting married and over-sleeping on a school day). You do understand the implications of what I am saying? Whole tea and coffee plantations can be returned to Mother Nature to be rainforests again. Yup, that's how we start reversing environmental pollution. Radical ain't it? A beautiful, green planet without tea & coffee.

When you think about this, you would realise how there is much more unneccesary strains on the System now. Why do we still need leather tanneries with improving fabric technologies? Why do we still need polythene plastics or even paper bags for that matter when you can make bags out of re-usable materials like 'rattan' (and they last longer too)? Detergents and cleaners too can be replaced with natural stuff when we stop feeling that chemical solutions are "better". That is easily done. No commercials to influence people to buy. Oh yeah, the gravestone of the printing and advertising industry is an ESSENTIAL foundation slab for the society of the future. Remember. No one needs convincing to part with their money then.

Back to Option 1. The guy who creates the Androids has to share my vision of Utopia (or have a grander plan himself). He shouldn't sell them to households or businesses or governments to make profits. He should use them to create the Enclaves straight off the bat! But, wouldn't this be a hard sell to his stakeholders? I say "No"

Businesses

1) Tax breaks for businesses that invest in Androids and Tax-holidays for businesses that invest up to 40% of their profits directly into Enclave construction efforts.

2) Exclusive citizenship in the Enclaves of the Future, for the CEOs. (CEO's having the money to satisfy Deficiencies Needs would be closer to operate in the Self-Actualiser state, easily reaching the Self-Transcendence state)

3) Activities within are not going to be generating, transfering or consuming money. Profits can still be made supplying to the Enclaves in their initial stages of internal inefficiencies.

Non-profit, Non-Governmental organisations

1) Among the first things these Enclaves would do is repatriate orphaned, homeless children from the streets. It needs people without ties, without 'excess baggages' totally dedicated to fulfilling the vision. The Enclaves must SERVE the society from Day 1.

2) All NGOs, NPOs have an agenda in the betterment of humanity anyways. The Enclaves as a focus of their efforts would definitely benefit them.

3) There are no Governments within the Enclaves. LoL... where else can they operate to their heart's content?

Governments

1) The Enclaves would be a symbol of the future. Any government that has the nerve to call itself "developed" should be interested in developing these symbols.

2) Politicians would definitely think about the flow of resources that would be coming in to support the construction of the Enclave and how they can take their 'piece of cake' from all the action. Yeah, let them feed while others are busy freeing themselves. The things you own, end up owning you - Tyler Durden. Fight Club.

3) The United Nations could finally come to good use, by becoming evangelists for the Enclaves, in getting fundings to flow to developing nations as well.

I personally prefer a new Planetary Organisation to be in charge of the Enclaves. Yeah I'd prefer the term "Planetary" as opposed to "Global". The latter is very much tied into the current global economy, that causes global financial meltdowns affecting citizens globally who are all on a one way street to a global catastrophe, the day global warming passes the climactic 'tipping point'. You get the point.

We don't live on a GLOBE do we? Nope. Not a simple sphere. Yeah, for the longest time we even thought it was flat. And NO, it does not suddenly become "flat" one day because Thomas Friedman woke up and realised that every individual now can contribute to the global economy, thus rendering the US economy irrelevant. Read his book (and throw it away) someday. But, at least it got him thinking about how the global economy needs to go green. At least someone is thinking along the correct action plans. Reasoning is flawed though.

It is now high-time we use the ACTUAL word. We live on a Planet. A Planet is an increasingly complex, wonderful system the smaller you become. Each and every "flow" has an origin and a destination on a globe. In a Planet though, everything eventually goes back to where it started. Every particle has a way of flowing back to its origin, even if it takes thousands of years for one revolution.

All Self-Transcended individuals would be able to see these Nature Flows and know exactly how to tap, harness and harmonise with them. These individuals would also operate under the full realisation every move has a butterfly effect which touches ALL particles within the Planetary system; thus taking decisions for the greater good everytime.

They may need a servant force to keep their efforts focused on the big picture first, but to avoid how some popular fiction portray humanity as becoming lazy (which I believe would pretty easily happen), there has to be one Final clause in the Vision of the Enclaves. The reliance on Androids MUST be phased down and eliminated as time goes on. Humans have to embrace their chance to equally contribute to Nature's Flows at all levels...

...Going back to Dawn of Man

Every human in a tribe having needs to be met to live; contributing to get what was needed.

Except now, at the Noon of Man.

Every human on the Planet got what each needs; triggering a process of contribution to Life, aided by thousands of years of scientific understanding and technological advancements.

Leading to a glorious Dusk...
