What is progress?
We have been brainwashed to think a particular way about success, progress and advancement.
Success has meant accumulation, wealth and power. It rarely considers relational quality, health, and service.
Advancement is often screwed to technological advancement. I am definitely happy to have anaesthesia for surgery. But in our technological advancement, we have become separated from nature, a deep connection to soul and spirit, and the song of Universe.
To conflate progress with technological advancement, while we get further and further apart from connection, belonging, purpose, well-being, and awe is to be swollen by a machine and miss the essence of aliveness.
