At reState we believe that it is only through deep inner development required of every individual, that we can confront the grand global challenges. It is only when we upgrade ourselves, that we will be able to harness our technologies, and do so responsibly, for the goodness of the world. To discuss this and more, we have facilitated a historical conversation between the two visionaries – Sadhguru, a famous yogi, mystic and founder of Isha Foundation, and Vitalik Buterin, founder of Ethereum shaping the future of the blockchain industry.
The two leaders discovered in real time, during the interview, that consciousness and technology are inextricably intertwined. Universal decentralized intersectional identities that blockchain enthusiasts are campaigning for have at their core the same principles and values as the cosmic identity of an ancient yogic tradition: they dissolve the ego and make identities multilayered. Sadhguru and Vitalik discuss that technology is merely an extension of a human being in the outer world, and agree to unite efforts to help billions of people fully realize their human potential and put technology at service to that higher purpose.
Stay turned as reState and Vitalik are planning a visit to Sadhguru’s ashram in India to continue this conversation and launch a mission to empower 3 billion people to make a transition into more desirable futures.
