Description

This is the prologue to the Requiem for Homo Sapiens trilogy and should be read together.

Michel Bauwens: "It is one of the most integrally informed books I have ever read, consisting of a universe with planets dominated by different forms of consciousness, from the tribal to the non-dual, and the interconnections between them are beautifully rendered. It is also one of the few books to combine speculation about physical transhumanism, with well-rendered elements of spiritual transhumanism. For example, and this is how it connects to peer to peer, it has many pages exploring various forms of collective intelligence, including a whole chapterof a planet of god-machines evolving towards mystical realizations, called Namahn."
