Don’t look now, but the very same evolutionary process that, over the eons, advanced the dominant species on Earth from rocks to plants to animals to humans has been at it again.  Without our even noticing, it has taken us on beyond human to the next level.  Ta-da!!!  Our replacement is here.

The last three blogs have taken us on a search deep inside to find out who we “really” are.  Along the way we learned that we are not our bodies nor our possessions, despite the signs on the back of some pickups that “the one who dies with the most toys wins”.  And we know [...]
