Alternatives to Involuntary Death
Timothy Leary
Timothy Leary is at it again— challenging
taboos. This
time it is DEATH. Tim says that our fears have been
programmed to keep
us submissive to Authority. He asks: “Why should we
died
involuntarily?” and gives us alternatives to
involuntary death.
Let us have no more pious
wimpy talk
about death. The time has come to talk cheerfully and
joke sassily
about personal responsibility for managing the dying
process. Dying is
the most fascinating experience in life. Approach
dying the way you
live your life—with curiosity, hope, experimentation,
and a little help
from your friends. Design your own death! The is
nothing worse
than a factory assembly line death. The dying
process is on of
total liberation.
Tim offers options for
Re-Creational
Dying. Reprogram and take navigational control
of dying. Install
your own pre-mortem plan for immortality. Brain
preservation is an
option, which includes cloning, cryonic suspension,
and brain banking.
There is also DNA storage.
Electronic immortality is
within
reach of anyone with a camera and computer. Author
your life and create
an immortality portfolio for personality data-base
transmission.
Immortality is the next
scientific
frontier. Mind-Consciousness to computer
transfer. Become an
up-load. There are many benefits—no need to eat, for
example. This is a
step to becoming posthuman. Future beings, who may not
have any
physical form, will reside in the Matrix.
If you de-animate, there are
numerous
options. Mummification preserves DNA along with
appearance.
Cryonic suspension is an option if you hope to be
re-animated sometime
in the future.
