I think this idea is not quite right. Although it is consistent within itself, it misses a central tendency among us, that of the need to do something different, to be unique, to not have a single identity. When we combine differentiation with connectedness, it leads to a much richer idea of SUPERBEINGS (SBs), all of them which are expert and powerful and intelligent in their own fields. If we consider each of us as a unit, we may associate ourselves to multiple fields but not to all of them. And any one particular field will have only a fraction of the population associating with it.
You may dismiss the concept of SBs by saying that over time these will coalesce into the ONE and that will be it. But most of us loathe monotony and never-ending uniformity. We constantly seek out different experiences and try to stand out from the crowd. If most of us are doing a particular thing and are comfortable with it, there will always be a few innovators or ‘rebels’ who will challenge the status quo, who will be tired of the current system and will seek change. When this alternative stance attracts enough people, it gives rise to an alternative movement which grows and ultimately becomes a powerful force of its own.
Hence, the ONE at best represents an ideal scenario which the system will apparently move towards but which will never be reached. Even if it is reached, it will be unstable and quickly develop variants which will then become new SBs.
There is a fascination among us with the ONE because it neatly ties to another idea we all love, simplicity. To be simple and elegant is beautiful. But mostly in the real world, we find a lot of complexity. Over time, as our understanding of systems increase, we develop new insights and observe patterns which allow us to simplify a system or automate its complexity without reducing its power. This can be referred to as ‘improved simplicity’. This then evolves into new complexities as we constantly try to get the maximum out of the new system. Thus the simple-complex cycle keeps going on but we never reach the most ideal scenario, that of ‘ultimate and pure simplicity’. That always remains a goal which we should pursue but can never reach.
The ONE is simple and SBs are complex but what we will almost see will be the SBs.
