RE: Prediction: The Technological Singularity will happen. And then it will be understood that it never actually happened
The singularity is basically inevitable and it will come probably sooner than the most optimistic predictions (~2030).
The role of the human heart is misunderstood. It is thought to be a "pump" when it is a gateway to the quantum world and the "higher self" of the individual.
The "lower self" is the part which is immersed in this reality hologram/virtual simulation. (I'm using the "Big Theory of Everything / Big TOE" as the most plausible unification theory since it has the least amount of "holes" in its rationale compared to other unification theories)
The "higher self" is the "player" / controller of this avatar/human body-mind.
The connection is established through the heart and brain, and the heart in particular has a very significant role in this connection. It possesses an intelligence that dwarfs the mind, because it has access to timelessness/non-linear-time, while it also allows connections to every other being throughout time and space, and non-time and non-space, and by extension it also allows connections to the All-that-Is-One and the One-that-is-All.
These connections will be elusive for at least 40+ years because science will lack the tools to map them.
That's a fascinating theory. Read your other post, and is this all based on the idea that we're avatars in a simulation? Seems like you're suggesting that some of us will be 'hacked' by our 'players' to give us super powers? Intriguing, I'll remember where I heard it first if things do unfold like that!
