“Religions are a social phenomena, present in every human society, from prehistory to the present. They begin as experiences of spiritual, ecstatic, or transcendental states. This can feel like connecting to a higher power or engaging with a vast, collective, even infinite mind. These are the realms that goddesses, prophets, shamans, and mediums navigate, often achieved through fasting, breathing techniques, mantras, drumming, psychedelics and more. The payoff is the ecstasy that comes with the experience of absolute unity. Biases and boundaries dissolve along the way.

As our technologies change, so will our spiritual practices, to the degree that we can now imagine machines that will trigger similar ecstatic, transcendental experiences for anyone who has access. This will be revolutionary since by pairing the Internet with AI, we are collectively giving birth to a truly alien mind, one that is global and local, and the experience of that, through our technologies and the metaverse, will be mystical and mythical in the classical sense.”
