can this ever happen?

JOHN MARKOFF of The New York Times wrote an article “Scientists Worry Machines May Outsmart Man”
“Their concern is that further advances could create profound social disruptions and even have dangerous consequences.

As examples, the scientists pointed to a number of technologies as diverse as experimental medical systems that interact with patients to simulate empathy, and computer worms and viruses that defy extermination and could thus be said to have reached a “cockroach” stage of machine intelligence.”NYT

Are you worried?

Do you believe that a computer has a chance to out smart us?

Do you believe that it is dangerous?

Should we regulate Artificial Intelligence research like we do Stem Cell research?

We would love to hear your opinion!

Your opinion counts, please share it – JUST POST COMMENT BELOW…

We will soon be releasing the joined recording of Erik Valdman’s energy work (Bio-Vibes) during a world class classical concert. This Unique music and  energy production was elevating both for the performers, considered by many, to likely be some of the best young stars in the world today and the sold out audience.

The performers:

LUKA OKROSTVORIDZE, piano (born in Tblisi, Georgia in 1991), studied with Professor Dorensky (teacher of Denis Matsuev and Nikolay Lugansky) at the Moscow Conservatory. An accomplished pianist and composer, Luka has won international competitions and festivals, including the Colmar in France. He made his debut through The International Vladimir Spivakov Charity Foundation with Young Stars in 2006, he made his North American solo recital debut here in 2007, winning fans with his charm, and passionate and mature playing. “His intensity is palpable,” observed the National Post.

YURI REVICH, violin (born in Moscow in 1991), has performed with the Russian National conducted by Mikhail Pletnev, the Moscow Soloists under Yuri Bashmet, and other leading orchestras. Yuri has won such international competitions as Virtuosi of the XXI Century and the David Oistrakh in Russia, and the Oldenburg Promenade and International Kloster-Schontal Violin Competition in Germany. In 2008, French master Alan Karbonar presented Yuri with a violin made especially for him. Germany’s Weinheimer Nachrichten (Weinheim News) described how Revich “left the public open-mouthed with the drama, passion and directness of his performance.”

NAREK ARUTYUNYAN, clarinet (born in Gumri, Armenia, 1992) is a regular soloist with the great Russian orchestras, under the likes of Constantine Orbelian, Vladimir Spivakov, and Yuri Bashmet. Narek has also given solo recitals in France, Italy and Switzerland. A winner of many international competitions, Narek is equally gifted in classical and jazz. At his 2008 Toronto debut through the The Vladimir Spivakov International Charity Foundation in Young Stars, Alexa Petrenko of Classical 96.3 FM exclaimed that “this performance stopped time”.

Could you share your experience with energy and music?

What do you feel we should name this DVD/CD production?

Here is the video I promised, it will explain the connection to stress anxiety the immune system and how doing business, and relate to each other, the “Zappos way”, could help us prevent future flu outbreaks and much more…

(if you do not have 10 minutes, just go directly to min 6:43 of this video)

This video will  show you my personal perspective, please share your ideas and impressions below.

I strongly believe, that unless we learn how to do business ( and in every day life, simply relate, communicate with each other) with the clear intentions of creating a benefit for all who are involved in the production, as well as “the prime intention”, long term, best possible, product and experience, for the end consumer (a friend, a fellow human being), we may find ourselves taking short cuts with devastating outcome.

I also believe, that every one is able to do “the right thing”, but first for all of us, the perspectives on life, money and self worth must be “adjusted”.

Understanding the concept of doing the “right thing”, may not be enough, which is the prime reason for Karma and Inner Energy Secrets Training.

Does anyone know where the H1N1 virus came from?

CNN – Pigs are kept in cages, and are not let to be pigs!
Pigs are under constant stress
Pigs are fed with animal byproduct

The flowing video will answer some of these questions:

Could a stressed person also be the first to get any flu?

What can we do to protect ourselves?
What can we do to protect our family?
What can we do to protect our business?

How is the flu related to Karma?

Could we avoid the flu if we were vegetarian?

“Making a Profit” vs “Producing and/or Growing Food”

Could there be a different life perspective?

UPDATE: Here is a good link

In his post (Understanding Swine Flu’s World Spread: Questions and Answers) on April 30 (Bloomberg) John Lauerman wrote — Swine flu has sickened at least 257 people in 11 countries, including Mexico, the U.S., New Zealand, Canada and the U.K., according to the World Health Organization.

During yesterdays Karma Secrets Training, we attempted to answer similar questions but from a karma perspective:

1. What is the source of the “Swine Flu”, why now, and what does it all mean to us?
2. Who is at the greatest risk to be infected?
3. What can you practically do today, to protect yourselves, your family and your friends?

Tomorrow I will send you the links to an article I wrote based on the conclusions and insights we have arrived to (a Karmic and Inner Energy perspective)

But before I do, I wanted to know: How do you feel?
Can we protect ourselves from this upcoming pandemic ?
Do you think there is something we can be doing today to prevent future similar outbreaks?

Please share your opinion with us.
Your thoughts and opinions are important.

Karma and Inner Energy Secrets five week training.

I was wondering what your definition of Karma is
and how do you feel your Karma is effecting your life?
(please share your views ask a question and comment on your experience here

During a recent Karma and Inner Energy Secrets presentation at the Total Health Show 2009, there were many question requiring the definition of “Personal Growth” and Success.

Personal Growth could be observed and measured on many different levels.

Where some would place more value on knowledge or education, receiving a formal degree would be defined as personal growth. Others who have a more practical outlook on life consider achieving a higher salary, or position as their ultimate personal growth. There are also those who search for power, and others need respect.

Some view personal growth as a more successful family life, or even a gain in spiritual awareness, or enlightenment.

Inevitably we would view ”Personal Growth” based on our, and our sphere of influences, current life perspectives.

However you define personal growth, you will soon realize that to achieve personal growth on any level, you would ultimately require “Inner Energy”.

Inner Energy, as it has been described in many ancient, eastern and western traditions, has always preceded any form of action.

Here Inner Energy becoming the necessary component to support our emotional strength and self confidence, to create a clear vision of our desired outcome, to give a true physical strength and the necessary inspiration to take immediate action.

Inner Energy as the hidden component to our success, has the ability to do more than just empower but also redefine our personal growth from the inside out.

Ultimately reflecting Success, Personal Growth could be defined as the steps you take towards your True Life’s Purpose.

As you are experiencing inner growth, your path, your purpose may include greater and greater elements of helping others through inspiration.

Helping through Giving and Helping through Inspiring could have some what of a different meaning. Helping through Giving is giving away from what you have, at times it is very difficult and limiting, as you may feel that you do not have enough to give.

Helping others through inspiring, could expressed a much more true and powerful gift. Inspiring others, giving them power is unselfish and unlimited. Inspiration which comes from the very essence of who you are, regardless of how much physical possessions you have. Inspiring and not giving becomes more rewording as one person has the ability to inspire an entire nation.

To be an inspiration, you need not change anything about you.

The opposite is true, it is the very uniqueness and individuality of who you currently are, rich or poor, tall or short, young or old, walking or on a wheel chair, inner energy at your disposal, guided by your intention you need not change a thing, but use your individuality and personal power. You, as you are, can begin making immediate difference in your life and in the lives of others.

Dave Arneson, who through the popular game he helped create, Dungeons & Dragons, spawned a new form of interpersonal entertainment that has captivated millions, died on Tuesday in St. Paul, Minn., where he lived. He was 61…The cause was cancer! BY SETH SCHIESEL, New York Times News Service

Dungeons & Dragons co-creators changed gaming, could we use their “new” style of cooperative game playing to help change our current economic downfall ?

Does collaboration require a common enemy?

Could we just think of a common vision of the future to inspire us for growth?
