BIMBO CABIDOG

Until the late 70s, technology as it is today defied common imagination. It wasn’t even sci-fi stuff. The latest futuristic movies then did not show the kind of supermachine artificial intelligence has become connecting billions of electronic terminals throughout the globe, a universe of its own.

Decades later, the technology would already create a new world reality across national boundaries. It has evolved, and keeps on evolving, the gnome of nearly everything in human affairs: arts, scientific research, government, business, industry, finance and markets.

If the power and mind-boggling magnitude of web-based data systems could not be imagined early in the fourth quarter of the last century, at present, the world is hard to imagine without them.

In the crossover to the new millennium, programs on the worldwide web already determine almost everything that people do. Societies would so depend on them that there was an instance when a foreseen digital glitz owing to the numerals 1900 and 2000 triggered fears about the end of days.

Contemporary mankind may no longer be able to live without computers. Human existence has become interminably tied to them that every mark of it on the planet bears their trace.

Aiding the AI revolution was the leap in communications capacity that transmits huge amounts of data over immense distances around the world. The development would be made possible by fiber optics and the broad band. It paved the way for the internet.

Through an age, the cablegram was the mode of getting messages to far-flung regions faster than the mail service. Then the telephone, later followed by the radio transceiver that hinged on aerials brought the world closer. Still, the wireless wonders were limited in volume and speed of transmission.

Then aeronautics reached beyond the stratosphere. It made possible the installation of orbiting space satellites that beam to the four corners of Earth. This really surpassed previous limits.

The technological breakthrough ushered societies into the information age. The novel bridges in space drew powerful wave lengths that enveloped the globe in an electromagnetic weave connecting humans through the keypad thousands of miles apart capable of sending voluminous data in record time.

Connectivity in turn ushered megatrends and social being shaped by knowledge-based economies. The global north and south that formerly seemed worlds apart saw eye to eye through the monitor’s screen. It seemed incredible, but was palpable.

The newfound power appeared at the outset metaphysical and esoteric. But man has deciphered the mystery lodged in as material in essence as the microchip with semiconducting properties. In perfectly explainable terms, the invention fused matter and thought.

Information is non-matter. It does not occupy physical space. Neither has it weight nor mass. It is not pulled by gravity. But it is nonetheless bound with man’s material being. It is a most influential presence in his historical social development.

Such is because information governs decision and thereby shapes outcomes. Though it is a metaphysical configuration, it transforms into a material force with physical impact and effects.

At the turn of the century, technology carved cyberspace which hosted the worldwide web. The event concretized a global brain by which transcontinental information, knowledge, philosophy and reality from the perspective of every culture crystalize in seconds.

The development put in the midst of humanity a superbeing of almost infinite intelligence geared at running every aspect of existence. The prodigious technological capacity communicated in binary digits, byte by byte making change in real time.

The digital codes translating thought through an infinite range of the number 01 stretched out the arch of the mind into a universe of information at man’s fingertips. They brought into concrete reality an intangible essence, the being of spirit that the human brain has pondered for ages.

Towards the first decade of the new millennium, the Internet was whipping up a revolution in all aspects of society. A web of dots connected life in every part of the world. They represented computer memory that programmed human activities through terminals linked by satellite communication.

Messages carried by signals reached distances at the speed of sound. In the terminals, processors translated the bytes back to facts, graphics and meanings. It was in this global system that mankind would be most keenly aware of the overarching intellect.

The worldwide computer connectivity poised to bring man face to face with his spiritual nature. Further steps ahead, he already stands at the threshold of a realm that brook no more limit in the knowing of truth, a fount of self-awareness beyond material realities and paradigms.

Here is the ultimate connectivity liberated from the bounds of space and time. It is a connectivity that finally closes the gap between man and God that has separated him from Him since the dawn of time. In it the binary codes fade and give way to truths churned out by powerful spiritual processors.

The link turns into an implosion of consciousness as God’s omnipotent website is successfully accessed. The site has the domain name of iam.iam. It is a realm in every human being infinitely larger than the known material universe that contains the way, the truth and the life.

To get to iam.iam, no internet server, binary processor, terminal monitor and keypad is needed. The portal of the self is enough, a dot that grows larger and larger up to infinity once clicked and entered.

Communication is not by means of electromagnetic impulses riding on far-reaching cosmic waves. It is by simply saying the word not in the language of the tongue, but in the language of thought.
