Artificial Intelligence is no match for Natural Stupidity




Artificial intelligence is no match for natural stupidity.




Albert Einstein often remarked, "Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former."

Stupidity the word comes from the Latin verb, stupere, meaning to feel numb or astonished, and related to the word stupor.

Looking around what does one observe?  
Driven by economic exploitation and facilitated by political and religious strife, people are increasingly being drawn into a vortex of stress and fear, experiencing loss of sustenance, dignity and freedom.

It is plain to see that instead of becoming an impediment, stupidity has increasingly become a formula for success, particularly in the high visibility professions of entertainment, religion and politics. Who is at fault for this ridiculous situation? 

Of course the public. People  like us, we back and follow such leaders, priests, and vote for these politicians. Look at the election campaigns in India and America, politicians make great  promises and provide so much entertainment. Is it any surprise that so many businessmen, entertainers and 'religious' persons become social and political leaders and even heads of State?

Human intelligence lies within the brain, addressing memory, logic and thought processes. Scientists are continuously working on a sort of substitute for the brain called artificial intelligence, which has provided marvellous gadgets and systems, even robots to improve the quality of human life. 

However our emotional well  being, happiness and contentment comes not from intelligence but from human consciousness, which scientists cannot address by artificial intelligence. 

Artificial intelligence which uses mind processes, cannot address the abundantly found human quality of natural stupidity, which is born from a lack of consciousness.

We may be denied material prosperity or freedom, but no one can take from us our birthright to possess and awaken our own spirit. The world needs more spiritual healers who can help awaken the divine within lies dormant within each one of us.

"It has become appallingly obvious that our technology has exceeded our humanity." - Albert Einstein.

"Our scientific power has outrun our spiritual power. We have guided missiles and misguided men." - Martin Luther King Jr.

Why does love pass me by?


Everyone seems to be looking for love but most of us can't seem to find it. 
Could it be that we look for it in the wrong place? Or our approach is not correct, or maybe what we seek something else but we mistakenly call it love?
Even when love is within our grasp we are afraid to love, because we are scared of getting hurt. 

Love can never hurt, but unfulfilled expectations can cause much unhappiness and hurt.

Love is a giving, an unconditional giving. You do not know why, but you simply give. A good example would be, a mother's love for her child.

Any explanation of love is futile. Love is a matter of the heart and not a subject for the mind to analyse, love therefore defies explanation. 
Love is not logical, it cannot be. That is why normal people rarely experience love. You have to be a bit foolish and even more innocent to experience love.

Our disappointment with 'Love' arises out of two reasons, trading and possessiveness.


We humans are clever, very clever, we want to take and rarely give. Sometimes we give, but only with an eye on getting something back in return. When we do this it could be called trading. We give affection and 'love' wanting something we call 'love' in return. This is not love it is a deal. Deals are transactional and generally unsatisfying.

Love is probably the greatest feeling one can experience, it is beautiful, in truth it's exhilarating. 

The other thing that ruins love is our possessiveness. The greatest disappointment in life appears to be unreciprocated affection or our inability to possess the object or person of our love.

"I love you so you have got to love me. You cannot love anyone else."

This possessiveness leads us to do strange things and demand impossible loyalties. Placing absurd and unnatural expectations on the person of our love, we make them actually dull and ugly making them undesirable and therefore unlovable.

Anyone worth possessing, simply cannot be possessed.



What would happen if you took a beautiful flower and closed it into a box? The flower would wither and die very quickly. 
What would happen if you took the sweet water from a spring and put it into a bottle for a long time? The water would become stale and smell foul. 
What would happen if you captured a beautiful bird and put it into a cage? It would neither have beautiful flight, nor spread its glorious wings nor will it sing beautifully as it did when it was free.




Love is a gift, and if it is true, seeks nothing in return.

If you want to love then do so unconditionally and with your heart and not your mind. Be like the sun radiate, give energy and bring life to all you see and meet and expect nothing in return and you shall transcend from a planet to a star and from man to God.
