A coded software

We operate on the basis of a coded software created by our parents, family, school, friends, culture, religion, and society, whose programming is shaped by the influences that permeate us. At what point does I exist in relation to the power of external influence? Freedom and transformation consist in creating a space between ourselves and this software, at the risk of otherwise being guided solely by it. This represents the transhumanist ambition: remaining trapped inside a matrix with a digital identity, running on a single, collective algorithm, coded with a non-evolving loop. Nothing but data, no longer any sensation, confined to the narrow field of a constrained intellect which, without a subtle counterpart, becomes nothing more than suffering. Fear, anxiety, stress, and tension are linked to the disharmony that arises from not allowing the essential part of our being to flourish. Peace comes from expressing our deepest, immaterial feelings.
