The Gospel of Technology

By Abhijit Naskar

"Live with technology, not through technology."

In a world where technology has infiltrated every aspect of human life, without giving us any opportunity to learn to cope with such revolution, the humanitarian Neuroscientist Abhijit Naskar delivers us an investigative odyssey into the implications of this revolution in human life. Naskar points out to us in his serene yet bold manner of writing that to make sure that the over-abundance of technology doesn't turn human life heartless and mechanical, it is imperative that every individual of the society uses technology responsibly, not recklessly.

What do I know? What do you know? And what do you not know? What do I not know? These are the questions that you should be asking if you want to understand the difference between knowledge and ignorance. More and more I am beginning to see in the society, the illusion of knowledge. And this illusion is not about ignorance. Ignorance is everywhere - it's in every single person - by which I literally mean every single person, including myself.

Every person has some sort of ignorance about something. Nobody can know about everything - no one person can see the whole picture - it is a biological impossibility - hence, it is an existential impossibility. But that is not the problem - ignorance is not the problem. Ignorance is rather healthy. What's not healthy is illusion of knowledge.

Illusion of knowledge is lethal - it's dangerous, because it makes people believe that their belief is the only truth - that their belief is a fact - and that is devastating because, it not only keeps them away from the real understanding of a phenomenon, but also it creates a barrier between them and the people who actually, genuinely want to understand.

What is wrong in accepting that you do not know! There is nothing wrong in accepting that you do not know, in fact, knowledge begins with the acceptance of ignorance. If you do not even accept that you do not know, then how can you even actually begin to know! To even begin to understand something - to even begin to realize something - to learn about something you
