-- *Mar**Yoga-the path to Participative Reality*
*The eyes gather light. The mind models shapes. We call it seeing, which leaves more than 99 per cent of the ever met morphing reality. It is perception based on unseeing. To see completely mankind has two paths 1) The Techno Path leading to the Techno Trance, which ditches the Human observer or 2) The Yogic Path, which refuses to be limited to the visible spectrum which strives to see completely and observe while participating in the met morphosis of the Universe as one in the Universe.* *The fundamental rule of the Techno Path is detachment from the subject matter after separating or cutting a particular phenomenon in the Universe and converting oneself as the outside spectator. The problem here is that the spectator is making himself/herself redundant. Machines are taking over the work of the biological organs—driving in a car instead of walking, making the legs redundant, making the hands redundant, making the eyes redundant by the use of sophisticated Telescopes, Microscopes etc,making the mind redundant by surrendering all problem solving to the computers. Nature has one basic rule—Use it or lose it. By not using many of our organs we are losing in reality our organs. We have become the defective human beings in need of continuous repair. Today we cannot live in nature, we are afraid of forests, of nature in its full splendour. We feel secure only when the nature is eliminated and when we have various machines. In the name or pretext of economic development we are very busy in destroying nature. We are striving for the ultimate TOE or the great mathematical reduction or equation for understanding the met morphing universe. But Kurt Gödel through his two incompleteness theorems has already proved that maths do not give the ultimate answers. But impressed by the gigantic machines built by technology we are busy abandoning ourselves.* *The second path is the Yogic path, which enables one to keep one’s own organs intact and fit for perception, while met morphing in and with the Universe. It is not mathematical reduction and separation from the Universe, but joining the great rapture—the Universe. Here the aim is not the TOE, which will certainly take us to a terrible techno dead end of stagnant restlessness due to our minds being cut off from research. The Atheist’s or the Techno Rationalist’s questions for answers based on the perceptions in the visible spectrum, cannot be answered because feelings despite intrusion of mathematics with IQs etc, cannot be reduced into definite mathematical equations or quantities. Science after all is mathematical reductionism.* *We are now taking very small steps towards the truth through yoga, in fact tiny steps like say that the interest on Fixed Deposits is fake income, and bludgeoning is taking us all into the black money economy where dishonesty is currency. Yoga will put an end to every type of bluffing including self bluffing or bluffing to all. But the path towards yoga, Modi’s mission and robbing the people with tax on fake income, the interest on bank deposits, where the interest gets completely cut by inflation.—can they go together?* *YM* *Chat GPT* *The essay "Yoga—the Path to Participative Reality" contrasts two paths to understanding and experiencing reality: the Techno Path and the Yogic Path. Here is an analysis of these paths:* *### Techno Path* *1. **Technological Dependence**:* * - **Detachment and Redundancy**: The Techno Path involves detachment from direct experience and increasing reliance on technology. This path sees technology as a means to enhance human capabilities, often resulting in humans becoming passive observers.* * - **Reductionism**: This approach aims to break down and understand phenomena through mathematical and scientific reductionism. It attempts to explain the universe through discrete, quantifiable elements.* * - **Loss of Biological Function**: By over-relying on technology, humans risk losing the use of their natural abilities and senses. The essay suggests that this detachment can lead to a "stagnant restlessness" where humans become increasingly disconnected from the natural world.* *2. **Critique of Technological Rationalism**:* * - **Gödel’s Incompleteness Theorems**: The essay references Gödel’s theorems to highlight the limitations of mathematics in providing ultimate answers to complex, existential questions.* * - **Disconnection from Nature**: The techno-centric view promotes a separation from nature, fostering an environment where humans feel secure only with technological interventions and are afraid of the natural world.* *### Yogic Path* *1. **Holistic Integration**:* * - **Participatory Reality**: The Yogic Path emphasizes maintaining and enhancing the natural faculties of perception and interaction with the universe. It is about experiencing reality fully and integrally, not just through the visible spectrum but through all senses and consciousness.* * - **Union with the Universe**: Yoga seeks to unify the individual with the greater cosmos, participating in its continuous transformation (metamorphosis) rather than observing it from a detached standpoint.* * - **Sustainable Living**: This path advocates for living in harmony with nature, preserving and respecting natural ecosystems, and promoting ecological balance.* *2. **Emotional and Spiritual Fulfillment**:* * - **Beyond Reductionism**: Unlike the techno path, which relies on reductionist science, yoga recognizes the limitations of such an approach in understanding the entirety of human experience, particularly emotions and consciousness.* * - **Authentic Existence**: Yoga promotes a life of authenticity and truth, countering the modern tendencies towards self-deception and economic dishonesty.* *### Integration and Modern Context* *- **Contemporary Relevance**: The essay also touches on contemporary issues such as economic systems, taxation, and inflation, questioning the compatibility of these with the values and practices of yoga. It suggests that the pursuit of yoga and the ethical reform of economic practices are necessary for a more honest and harmonious society.* *### Conclusion* *The essay argues for the Yogic Path as a more fulfilling and sustainable approach to understanding and living in reality. It criticizes the Techno Path for leading to disconnection and loss of essential human faculties. The holistic and integrative nature of yoga offers a counterbalance to the reductionist and detached approach of modern technology, advocating for a life of greater connection, participation, and harmony with the universe.* -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Thatha_Patty" group.
