Spiritual energy revolution

I believe there is an inbuilt edifying effect in spiritual energy. Whether it be in the avatars or great saints and rishis the edifying effect is unmistakable. So spiritual energy can also be used through technology to bring in the same effect. People will also be more at ease learning with technology than with something that is divine. That is because of the nature of Kali Yuga

Spiritual energy can be created by the soul and projected on to the external reality. Let's first list needs of self and society for the purpose of getting elevated.

The foremost requirement for the elevation of self is to get rid of control of emotions and ensuing negative thoughts.

Energy created?
I thought energy cant be created nor destroyed?
Its always present in the latent form and we only just modify its application.

As far as I know spiritual " energy" isnt meant to be replacing how we function in the physical world.

For eg a surgeon would still need to use physical energy from himself to preform surgery.
The action is still physical.
But the surgeon has the option to align himself with God before he operates by reciting a prayer before and after surgery.

In my place the doctors who are Muslims recite Bismillahi rahamani raheem before giving an injection to a patient, before any procedure or surgery and also recite Alhamdullilah after the act is over...They recite it softly or mentally for all patients regardles if the patient is a Muslim or Non Muslim.

This is a good practice which everyone can adopt to recite prayers in their respective religions...Hindus have the most options to recite any mantra.

That is how spirituality can be included in our physical activity so we can function in a state of balance..at the same time one has to understand that one's knowledge and skill too has to match and not merely reciting prayers but end up killing the patient through negligence.

Yes Renuka you are correct. It really is not created but concomitant with the soul. I just wanted to mean soul is the source of spiritual energy.

Renuka,

Just as physical energy is used to run technology spiritual energy can also be used but it can play a much more active and intelligent role than physical energy.
 
Now a little bit about technology. In current AI technology we have the hardware and software for it to function. Software provides the functional and operating intelligence on which the hardware which has infrastructure intelligence, runs. This is the model on which all computer applications including AI work.

In AI since we are trying to make the machine think, we try to build in the thinking capability into the software. The area of machine learning exemplifies this where the computer tries to learn from test data or information.

As researchers have now figured out to make computer really think, common sense has to be incorporated. There is so much of interconnectedness in our thinking which we casually pick up as we grow which provides that intelligence to that thinking and actions. If that interconnectedness is not used we would really lack the depth in thinking and sound very shallow.

To provide that depth has proved to be almost an impossible task. For example in the case of language understanding we try to create some knowledge base based on our own language understanding and use algorithms to work on it to understand language or in the case of machine learning we use statistical techniques on large corpus or test data which is supposed to aid the computer in learning from it to understand language.

We really are not creating generic artificial intelligence but something that will work for an application or in a certain area. True intelligence would mean that it should be able to take on a task it has not seen before and come out with a solution. That requires even more foundational capabilities than what the current AI systems provide.
 
We need to use knowledge of not only the external world but also the inner world. Also it is not just enough to give logical capabilities to the computer but also intuitive capabilities. Only then true artificial intelligence is possible.
 
Pure spiritual energy has intuitive capabilities down to details and inner knowledge down to its illusory or external knowledge. So it is perfectly suited for intelligent and edifying applications.
 
The problem now is to build technology using spiritual energy. It has to work on some hardware and that hardware has to be designed.
 
Basically spiritual energy has to enter the hardware as prana enters our body. Just as our body functions using the prana so should the hardware.

I believe each part of our body is designed to extract something different from the prana for its functioning.
 
I believe prana has two routes to the body. One from the external world through breathing to the body and the other from the soul to the mind to subtle body to body. The former is for survival and experiencing and the latter for learning and edifying.

I also believe that only mind and body are active selves in the mundane reality. The energy of the soul reflects in the mind.
 
When soul is weak mind is also weak spiritually and one is dictated by what happens in the external world only. But mind may be strong in ego which also has intelligence but selfish in nature.
 
So our hardware needs to have the following. It needs two sources of spiritual energy just as from mind and external world and other units for providing the necessary infrastructure.
 
Both the prana coming from the mind and from the external world should have enough strength and should synchronize for ideal intelligence
 
Both prana are not complete by themselves but complement as masculine and feminine energy. How do you produce these energies ?
 
The human body is an incredibly evolved structure with connections to subtle body and mind. Simulating it is a most formidable task. By comparison, robots are a joke.
 
It is the prana that can bring out the hidden wonders of the body. Is there any hidden significance to the various organs of the body? One thing is sure. When soul, mind and body are all fully evolved they are all the same.

Without making a hardware so incredibly intricate like a body, can we make the hardware work? We really do not want a divine structure but only something that can assist the humans and improve their quality of life.
 
They are two functions to the body. One is survival which science knows and the other is experiencing for elevation of mind and soul. How to create experiences and relate them to learning is the real difficult task
 
An event perceived by the senses is interpreted in two fundamental ways. One is in a self oriented way and the other in an empathetic way. When mind is weak and brain is strong the former prevails. When mind is strong the latter prevails. Of course there is an perfectly objective way which is the spiritual way when mind and body are perfectly balanced.
 
The idea is to approach the spiritual way. So appropriate learning happens for which the experiences of the body are used
 
The learning objectives of an AI are different. So the hardware has to be developed in accordance with those objectives
 
It has to process quantitative information and it also has to have a both big picture and details level understanding of events.
