Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For a society addicted to computers - this is a very profound question,Is software natural or artificial?If you deeply understand what it means for life to operate with the precision and perfection of the software we have created in its image, it can open you up to a completely different view of nature and yourself.We all use the precisely encoded instructions programmed by brilliant minds, and take it for granted - we simply call it "software."But now we have discovered that the same methods of processing information - programs and subroutines - instruct our bodies as DNA and in our brains as neural networks.What might this suggest about the true nature of our being and reality itself - in contrast to the materialist scientific view that we are separate pieces of intelligent meat?When the psychological "selves" that have crystallized as mental programs are seen through and decoded as programs, and nature itself is revealed as infinitely intelligent - what evolutionary lesson might be learned and absorbed?
