Part V -The Illusion of Knowing and the Call to Remember
We are entering a time where it seems like we know everything.
With a few words typed into a screen, answers appear. Information floods our minds. Questions vanish before they can even fully form. But something subtle is happening beneath the surface, a shift in how we understand ourselves, our purpose, and the world.
Artificial Intelligence gives us access to more data than we’ve ever had. But it does not give us access to truth.
Truth isn’t stored in code or extracted through prompts. Truth lives in the still, spacious places of the human soul — places that can’t be digitised.
When we rely on machines to think for us, we start forgetting how to feel deeply, how to sit with uncertainty, how to create, not just replicate. We stop trusting our own voice. We forget the slow art of listening inward.
This creates an illusion: the illusion of omniscience.
But having answers is not the same as having wisdom.
Knowing facts is not the same as knowing yourself.
And when we forget ourselves, we become vulnerable, open to manipulation, pulled by the loudest voice, the trend, the algorithm. This is the danger. Not the technology itself, but our disconnection from our own spirit. And the more disconnected we are, the more easily we are moved, away from peace, away from discernment, away from love.
This is why now, more than ever, we need to build psychological stamina.
We need to return to stillness, to intuition, to silence.
We need to remember that not everything that is fast is wise, and not everything that is efficient is good.
There is nothing wrong with using technology.
But there is something deeply wrong with forgetting the heart.
With funding machines while starving the soul.
With losing awe, reverence, and wonder in the name of optimisation.
We need to re-center love.
We need to remember that the sacred is still here — in the dirt, in the children, in the creatures, in the ordinary. And we need to speak of these things. Protect them. Honor them.
Because the world will not be saved by answers.
It will be saved by hearts turned gently back toward God, toward each other, toward themselves.
And maybe… if we begin here, in the quiet, we’ll remember how to live again.
