memeticor® - to be or not to be a human by knowledge
To enter into this question following Shakespeare we have to clarify first what is a human, what is knowledge and most notably what does it mean to be?
Will our knowledge help us to be?
Can we use our knowledge to be a human consciously?
"The wise human empties the head and fills the stomach."

by knowledge, gene or meme...

human by knowledge, gene or meme... When is a human a human ?
Do our genes and the evolution determine who we are,
or is it our memes and our culture ?

The difference between a human and other forms of life is the kind of communication: the speech and acting controlled by thinking. And the difference between a human and a (calculating) maschine is our intuition:
  • information
    we perceive a lot of things, consciously and unconsciously
  • intuition
    we process all relevant informationen intuitively
  • communication
    we share processed information
  • empathy
    some things will be accepted and come out on top
  • knowledge
    we store our experience
To be a human has to do with interchange of information.

By doing so a collective consciousness is coming up and this is also called knowledge:

Knowledge
by acting, the mirror neurons...

knowledge by acting, the mirror neurons... Our knowledge comes up by experience.
Without acting there is now knowledge.
  • observing:
    we perceive what others are doing
  • comparing:
    we compare it with what we are knowing
  • adapting:
    and revise our stored patterns of acting
A "picture" comes up in our head, and will also happen even we see a incomplete acting or even we get just told about.
If we have never experienced that 2 + 2 = 4, we can not model on this. Mathematics may not be proved by using mathematics [Kurt Gödel].
Responsible for our perception are the so called mirror neurons.
For this theme you will also find the following books in our list of literature: Read also in our Politics Newsletter:
do politicians have the better mirror neurons

And please read on how we can define our self by using knowledge......>>

To Be

to be or not to be... I conceive my acting therefore I am.
Yet the imagination of acting will trigger a perception.

For this the imaginated action will be compared with well known stored patterns of acting. So far the knowledge about mirror neurons.

But there is an explanation since long long ago:
  • our spirit (Shen) causes
  • the flow of our bio energy (Qi)
  • and this moves our body energy (Jin)
This is the essence of TaiJi-Quan.

So to be able to be we need our mirror neurons.
And these may be used and trained:
