Humans have been programmed - to believe, to have faith, to
follow certain rituals, certain dogmas ……….. JK
The computer has been programmed by the experts who programme it
according to what they want.
Same way we human beings have been programmed to be Catholics,
to be Protestants, to be Italians, to be British, Swiss and so on. For
centuries we have been programmed - to believe, to have faith, to follow
certain rituals, certain dogmas, we have been programmed to be nationalists, we
have been programmed to have wars. So our brain has become just like the
computer.
The computer can do almost anything the human being can do. Of
course it cannot write, compose as Beethoven, or as Keats and so on.
If the machines can do almost all that human beings can do,
robots and the computer, what is the future society of man? When cars can be
built by the robot and the computer, probably much better, then what is going
to become of man as a social entity? These and many other problems are facing
us. We cannot any more think as Christians, Buddhists, Hindus and Muslims and
so on. We are facing a tremendous crisis; a crisis which the politicians can
never solve because they are programmed to think in a particular way; nor can
the scientists solve or understand the crisis; nor the business world, the
world of money. So the crisis, the turning point is in our consciousness.
The turning point, the perceptive decision, the challenge,
whatever word you may like to use, is not in politics, in religion, in the
scientific world, but in the consciousness of mankind, which has brought us to
this point.
