When experiences are translated to words the essence of the experience is lost in translation. This I believe is the bane of all religions. They have converted profound spiritual experiences into words, words which can never replace the experience. It is a travesty on God's omnipresence when all the world's religions have condensed his presence into books and idols and worship them instead of experiencing his presence.
I feel nowadays like commenting and writing about current affairs, politics, wars and all the things that happens in this world. If you notice I have been keeping my hands off these subjects because of the sensitivity involved. Recently though I am tempted to say a few things on such topics but present unconventional views and perspectives. What do you think? I will give it some more thought before.
I see great tragedy and even greater comedy in any given situation, in fact in all situations there is a tragic and a comic perspective.
"I always thought that all of us share one God till I heard someone say that they have their own God"
I think in some 25 to 50 years Google, artificial intelligence and natural language interfacing with computers would have evolved so much that Google will release a product which I call "Gmate" (Google, you are free to use this name!)
Gmate is your friend, it can either be a doll or an iRobot like humanoid robot with which you can talk, get things done exactly like how you would interact with humans. Google will do this entirely through the massive repository of information, user data and intelligence that they would have gathered by then. The information bank will be so massive that Google will know everything that needs to be known about an individual. Using this data they will create customised Gmates.
What you do think? Is this realistic? I feel there is no need to even predict this, it's almost a given.
