Description
Namaste 🙏 So in the previous series—which you should watch if you haven’t—we talked about how we can create a metaphor, an image or a concept of a universal AI. We call it the GodGPT. And like any GPT class AI, you give this a prompt and it replies. But instead of replying with words like an ordinary human GPT, it replies with states of being and consciousness. So because God is inconceivable by definition, we have to use a metaphor. And even Viṣṇu and Śiva and the Goddess, and allthese different names and symbols, are human-like. Actually they're just metaphors for something which is beyond our understanding. So we don't even attempt to understand it, but we use these metaphors as means of communication. So the same is true of the GodGPT metaphor. It's just a symbol. It's just an image, a way of explaining that which is inexplicable, of conceiving that which is inconceivable. So now that we have put that out there, what are the prompts that we should use to invoke the maximum benefit from the universal GPT, the GodGPT? And so now we're going to enter into the Śiva-sahasranāma, the thousand names of Lord Śiva, with this in mind. Śrī Śiva-Sahasranāmam Introduction Transcription NEW!
