It is already going on with heart transplants, kidney transplants, lung transplants, knee and hip replacements, even arms and legs can be transplanted today, why not an enhancement and repair to slow down the decay of brain substance?
Jayapataka Maharaj, Gopal Krishna Maharaj, Mukunda Maharaj, Agni dasa and many more would NOT be with us today if it was not for advancement in modern technology in medical enhancement science.
If the medical science Musk talks about, is offered to enhance ways to remember memory for learning texts, I will be first in line.
All modern technology is doing, is what materialistic mystic yogis have already achieved long ago.
Already devotees enhance so many other organs in the body to keep them healthy to preach like Jayapataka Maharaj does, so much advanced technology was used to keep him with us.
If the material standards of living are improved to help a devotee remember Krishna, including repairing and enhancing their material bodily vessel, where is the problem?
In the last 150 years, devotees have used all these advances in technology that has had the effect of spreading Krishna Consciousness ALL over the world in a very short time, 12 years to be exact, from 1965 to 1977 all achieved by Srila Prabhupada.
Our Srila Prabhupada achieved more using modern technology in Spreading Krishna Consciousness than ALL Vaishnava's in the last 5000 years!!!
In December 1903 when the Wright brothers first flew their plane ALL religious traditions condemned it as a step backwards for humanity.
The Catholic Church headlines in their Newspaper was -
"This flying attempt is just a passing fad and the work of the devil because if man was meant to fly God would of gave him wings"
The same when electricity in 1882 was put into houses, all Christian leaders condemned it and said ghosts and hobgoblins will came into your house on the electric wires.
We forget what the Reformation was all about, overcoming religious superstition, fanaticism and fundamentalism that stagnated the world for 2000 years.
These religious IDIOTS believed the earth does not spin on it's axis and earth was flat, and those who spoke against their ignorance were executed.
No, if medical science Musk talks about is offered to me to "enhance ways to remember slokes by virtual reality in the brain substance", I will be first in line!!
Welcome to the 2020s and beyond.
Already devotees enhance so many other organs in the body to keep them healthy to preach like Jayapataka Maharaj does.
The fact is, if it was not for both electricity and Airplanes, and great Vaishnava devotees like AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada who used all this modern technology for mass book distribution and travelling all over the world devotees would be STILL be sitting in their little village in their little Temple in West Bengal!!
I will say it again, if NOT for USING modern technology, devotees would be STILL be sitting in their little village in their little Temple in West Bengal!!
Like the Gaudiya Math continued to do EVEN after Prabhupada left in 1965 and eventually travelling the world opening Temples.
In this way, advanced technology CAN be used for good too as Prabhupada showed us.
Elon Musk, like the Wright brothers, Thomas Edison, Nikola Tesla, who are also geniuses, we should try to preach to him, reach out to him instead of condemning him.
Sadly there are a lot of immature Hare Krishna devotees out there, including some ill informed ignorant gurus and sannyasis!!
If they want to know the power of modern technology, simply look at Jayapataka Swami, so much technology was used to keep him with us.
And telling this truth is NOT being offensive.
