Here is Path Split for Indic Versus Western Technology!
Something I’ve been trying to say for a few years is the difference between western and Indic “technology stack.” I have long suspected that the foundation for that stack HAS to have dharma at its foundation, and then the idea development, research, prototyping, marketing, manufacturing would be fundamentally different from a western product, BECAUSE it would have to take in consideration the reputation of the company were the product not be safe to manufacture by the employees, not safe to be used by consumers, require a destructive mining/harvesting/drilling/blocking off the affected area from habitation by living beings, and force living beings to lose their habitat.
It is not because Bhāratīyas were not capable of developing the technology, but they simply chose not to go there because they could see with a clear, dharmic mind what the consequences of developing this or that technology and using it would be. Westerners don’t do this and find out after the fact, in tragic ways, like Radi-Thor, Radium Girls, atomic energy, the Titanic, plane crashes in the last half of the 20th century, the Challenger explosion, the Columbia breakup, Thalidomide births, and so on.
I have wondered in the last 5 years, “What would today’s technology look like and operate like, had Indic civilization not been tampered with AT ALL and was allowed to maintain ascendancy and be a role model for western civilizations to follow?”
THAT is what I want to see.
I see a glimmer of a possibility of this scenario, where AI develops all over the world, but while it continues to serve the common good here in Bhārat, all of a sudden, the Terminator nightmare of 1984 becomes reality in America and in the West, and Bhārat ends up having to provide help to destroy “rogue AI.” That is absolutely what westerners are afraid of. Rogue AI.
You must also prepare for fighting a rogue AI military that has escaped the control of the US military (which is destroyed once Skynet becomes self-aware). I fear this greatly. It may seem like a movie, but it is a very real threat to westerners who didn’t sign on to develop AI.
It is not about avoiding risk nor avoiding innovation. It is ALL about that intuition that only a dharmic mind has that WARNS the inventor or developer NOT to go there because of what could result from the technology.
Chinese minds do what they do with risk-taking and innovation because they are SCARED that someone will better them and beat them in ALL WAYS, like not only tech-wise, but civilizationally, militarily, economically, politically, and culturally. They are AFRAID that if they don’t do this, there won’t be any more Chinese communists. Not only do they think that their way is right for them, but for YOU AND ME, TOO! That’s why they’re going to all this trouble to develop these things.
It is ALL DONE out of fear and ego. The DANGER is that in the pursuit to keep rākṣasas at bay, one becomes like them, which is basically what happened at the physical level during the Mahābhārata War. You have been warned about this future. It will not end well. Hence, Kalki or Vīrabhadra.
