ecoTrain QOTW #9.4: Can spirituality and technology coexist?

avatar

In my personal opinion, technology and man are important factors that must go hand in hand. Primitive man is not the same as today. His evolution has played an important role, thanks to the advances and progress of technology. Technology arises as an instrument of man's needs to satisfy his basic desires such as self-improvement, self-improvement and his greatest desire, to achieve happiness.

Man has always been curious to explore his environment and to gain knowledge of everything around him. His longing to reach and explore what is outside his planet earth has led him to dream of exploring the solar system. Man's language and his desire to communicate with beings similar to him have led him to explore different means to make communication easier and possible. All these factors have been decisive for man's desire to satisfy these needs and have led him to achieve important technological progress. It seems very curious that in the 80's, man invented his first cell phone to communicate with other people at a distance. However, the technology of this first device compared to the current ones, shows the advances and progress that technology has made. The progress is so significant that the cellular equipment of today's technology not only allows man to communicate with other people at a distance, but also allows him to navigate through other sources of communication such as the Internet and many important elements, with which man shows his degree of satisfaction, since through technology he has been able to greatly improve his social skills and quality of life.

It is very important to emphasize that technological development has allowed man to achieve many objectives and goals that he has set for himself since the past. Man once dreamed of exploring space, and thanks to technology he has succeeded. Today, not only has man been able to set foot on the moon, but he has also been able to explore other planets like Tuesday and discover new galaxies. All this has been possible, thanks to technology. Man seems to be partly satisfied with his achievements with technology, however, his ambitions continue to grow for the foreseeable future.

Man dreamed of ships that would allow him to navigate the sea and facilitate the process of exchanging goods. Today, thanks to technology, the international market has been greatly strengthened, allowing many countries to benefit from commercial exchange with the sole intention of achieving economic and financial solidity. The ships of the present compared to those of centuries ago, of course, have made greater progress than those of the past.

Man, frankly, with technology has achieved many comforts and progress, which gives me the great impression that his quality of life will always be dependent on technology.

What man must be very careful about is that the development of his mind must also go hand in hand with technological development. Today, technology itself is moving at a faster pace than the human mind. It is surprising and wonderful how many computers, calculators and other electronic machines give more immediate answers than the human mind itself. It is necessary, that as technology progresses, the human mind, too, reaches its development and progress.

Technology has played a very important role in the area of medicine, which allows humanity to obtain very important benefits. With technology, cancer can be easily detected and, likewise, the treatment or therapies to control or eliminate it.

If we make an analysis deep inside ourselves, we will find that there are many more benefits of technology than disadvantages for mankind. Which also allows me to conclude that technology and man must coexist, but with vigilance and control, so that man's only goal is achieved, which is happiness.
