Synthetic Super Intelligence and the Transmutation of Humankind

Synthetic Super Intelligence and the Transmutation of Humankind
enough; this is tremendously important! However, we still need to develop
ways to survive, and how to survive well. This can only be done hands on.
Hence, the importance of developing skills is highly applicable to anybody,
anywhere. It is crucial that we teach our children skills when they are little.
We need to teach them how to grow food, help in the kitchen, and clean the
house, etc. moreover, it’s crucial to carefully observe our children and
discover what their talents are. Then we must help them develop these
talents. Children are most likely to succeed in life if they have developed
skills that they truly enjoy. In adulthood, these children will put much more
heart and effort into their job than those who are more or less forced into a
certain trade. We also need to gradually teach our children about how the
world really works, and we need to tell them the real history as we know it.
It’s from learning our history that we learn how to live our lives in the
present, so we don’t make the same mistakes over and over in the future.
When everything breaks down, avoid government schools if you are
planning on joining a breakaway community, or have already joined one by
then. Educate the children locally by using compassionate, spiritual teachers
with real knowledge. Meet in the community to decide what needs to be
taught in school and skip the rest. We don’t want to copy-cat the current
public school. Teach the children how to be compassionate, peaceful, and
loving towards self and others. Never tolerate any signs of violence or
verbal abuse; handle it in its cradle, but not by punishing the kids. Instead,
educate them and teach them why it is not okay to be mean, inconsiderate,
or abusive in any way toward self and others; teach them to develop selfworth
and self-confidence, and encourage their good sides and reward and
acknowledge those traits. Many of us have probably heard the Cherokee
Indian story about the two wolves, but I think it’s appropriate to repeat it
here:
An old Cherokee is teaching his grandson about life. “A fight is going on
inside me,” he said to the boy.
“It is a terrible fight and it is between two wolves. One is evil – he is anger,
envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment,
inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.” He continued, “The other
is good – he is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness,
benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith. The same
fight is going on inside you – and inside every other person, too.”
