I hope you don't mind writing this, it 's not meant to offend.
That famous
singularity... I don't buy it.
The one who invented this idea, surely has sold a lot of books. Good for him/her.
If you've seen
this video thread, then maybe you have a more down to earth way to look at things.
As I understand it:
- the right half of your brain is the part that is connected, via all kinds of sensory input, to the outside world; maybe you could say, to all that exists.
- the left half of your brain is the part where the ego is formed, that what separates you from the outside world
For instance with meditation you can try to silence that left part. So you can get in a state this lady in the video was, after she'd had a stroke. You become a person with no boundaries, in contact with the whole existance, cosmos... Maybe then, you also can make contact with ETs ?
