Memes and LifeWe have three replicators 1. Genes 2. Memes 3. Fremes (I have called them that).These three replicators are selfish in that they contiuously try to replicate.In the book by Susan Blackmore, it is mentioned that the reason why we cannot stop thinking is because there are too many memes in our memory that can find their place in the brain. Hence, we continuously keep on thinking, but at the cost of higher energy requirements. Indeed, thinking utilizes more brain power which in turn requires more oxygen for which more blood flow is required. Hence, in a nutshell, the more we think the more energy we consume and the more the genetically weaker our genes become as we are wasting more energy. What we see here that these ...

For this, the simple idea is not to produce offsprings. Simple.We need to control the meme replication. For this, we need to try to stop thinking. Difficult, but practice makes us perfect, or so they say.We need to control freme replication. For this, let me take you on this concept of a time machine. The photon clock example. Yes. As our speed increases, the value of the time decreases. This is all hypothetical and yes, impossible too. Later, I will explain why. Nevertheless, the analogy is interesting. We are saying that the longer the time the lesser number of ticks and hence smaller the value of time. This way. So the longer the time, the more the control as you could possibly do things more dexterously. So in order to control fremes, we need to decrease the meme activity and increase the freme activity, i.e. decrease the value of time as frequency = 1/ Time.So, what do we collect from all this?In order to reach a higher state we should ideally be away from the greed of This is what the ideal life of a saint is explained in the Jain text. Indeed, there are various levels of spirituality explained in Jainism. You should not have a family, go to an isolated place where you do not have anyone telling you things or you telling them things. And then, concentrate and meditate continuously to
