AI, Metaverse & The Eternal Laws of The Universe | God is a Myth feat. Ajay Setia

This conversation on the Booknerds Podcast about our existence,AI, Metaverse, karma,spirituality,human evolution and more is absolutely mindbending !!! Thank you Ajay Setia for writing a book which could be way ahead of its time. And all that edgy conversation whilst having some awesome coffee and vibe by Kunzum and enabled by the good people at JiViSa Wellness Indie authors are blowing the roof!!! About the book: There's an innate desire in all of us to do good, to create positive karma. But have you ever wondered about the force that sometimes drives us towards the opposite? That inexplicable push towards actions we later regret or question. If even the concept of God in our lives encourages good deeds, then what or who is it that entices us into the shadows of wrongdoings? Some might quickly point to a devil or a Shaitan, a malevolent force opposing God's goodness. Is this Devil more powerful than God? If that's the case, why shouldn't we gravitate towards the more dominant force, rather than worship a seemingly weaker deity? This book is not just about seeking answers; it's about reevaluating our understanding of good and evil, right and wrong, and the very nature of divine and malevolent forces. Amazon Book Link https://amzn.to/3J1dmYP Author Bio: Ajay Setia is an Artificial Intelligence and Metaverse expert, leading as CEO of InvincibleMeta.AI. Ajay's journey into the fields of advanced technology is not just a professional pursuit; he sees it as a guided path, a destiny shaped by a higher intelligence to quench his deep spiritual inquiries.

What would happen if everybody disappeared ?? Descartes' Mistress by Advik Lahiri

What would happen if everybody disappeared | Descartes' Mistress by Advik Lahiri | Booknerds Podcast This conversation on the Booknerds Podcast about philosophers,stoics, existentialism and more is everything and beyond! Advik Lahiri who is a prodigy author from India explores the inevitable question in his deeply reflective and creative writing style inspired by the greatest philosophers the world has seen and all of that at the age of 17! About the book This is a story so intricately woven in its discussion of the human condition, aspects of which pull at different heartstrings, the abject loneliness of the protagonist having possibly crept up, unbidden, at any point in the lives of others. His story is a catharsis that may inspire, even an unsure writer, to pen a thought or two down but also inspire a feeling of community, that in this world of ours, moving fast towards isolation, we are not alone. Descartes' Mistress is a piece of experimental, philosophical fiction concerning the philosophical implications of a premise we all know - what would happen if everybody disappeared? - in a new radical light. . About the Author Advik Lahiri is a senior at the Shri Ram School, Moulsari. He has been writing for the majority of my life. This book encapsulates his love for philosophy and literature. This piece was inspired by his readings and interpretations of Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus, The Republic, The Outsider, On Being Blue, and general ideas of Descartes, Marx (his societal views), Sartre, Baudrillard, and Saul Kripke. These are just some, though the most important, of his inspirations in the book's philosophy. Bookstore and Venue Partner: Kunzum Wellness Partner: JiViSa Wellness
