Our brains will be „Operating In-The-Cloud“ pretty soon.
„you“ and „me“ will cease to exist. Your any my feeling as “Self” will cease to exist.
There will only be “the human cloud consciousness”. The whole human society will operate as one whole being. There will be no individuals.
The funny thing is, I absolutely know how being part of this feels.
I have dreamed hundred of times about it. It will happen in the next years.
Then, it will not matter whether you have schizophrenia, or any other mental illness or whatever.
You wont exist! You will be insignificant!
Imagine. You will be like a single cell in a body. Does it make much of a difference if a single cell has a minor defect? No it does not.
You will be part of a whole, and do your job. The whole knows that it exists. You may somewhat know that you exist, but not that much. You rather feel as a part of the whole humankind. You wont feel your schizophrenia or whatever that much because you feel everyone. And your schizophrenia doesn’t feel that bad because you feel 6 billion other people’s consciousness at the same time.
It’s like you are a drop in the ocean. Can a drop in the ocean be different than the other’s? Can you even tell where a particular drop in an ocean is? NO. it’s EVERYWHERE. And it can’t be any different than the other’s! Because an ocean is not made out of single drops! It’s just a big homogenous ocean. A single ocean.
And soon. There will be just a single human being. Just one human being, consisting of the sum of the consciousness of all human beings, bundled together.
You will see. That day will come. We are max. 10 years away. Stop smoking and drinking so you you wont die and experience it.
I don’t know how it will happen. Whether will a computer-brain port device or just by human brain evolving of some sort. But that will happen. You will see.
Think of the schizophrenic on forum.schizophrenia.com named Omid who wasn’t one when it happens.
