Synopsis

There was a time when we laughed about becoming slaves to robots. When sci-fi books predicted this futuristic world, we slept safe and sound in the knowledge that if robots were ever able to devise a masterplan to take over the world, we would simply switch them off before their level of intelligence superseded our own.

However, since the turn of millennium, growing computer power and rapid advances in AI have become the enabler for the digital age. As technology advances, the uptake of automation is increasing in the workplace and stealing our jobs from under our noses. In this way, we are already becoming slaves to computer power.

Meanwhile, the global population continues to grow and we are living longer too. Soon, many people will have no realistic prospects of making a meaningful contribution to the global economy. At the same time, there will be surplus mouths to feed and not enough resources to sustain an idle population. We are sitting on a ticking timebomb that will result in an apocalyptic reduction of the human species.

But what if the extraordinary events and political flashpoints we see playing out in the world are happening for a reason? What if the universe is like a theatre production in its last act, approaching the grand finale?

The Chinese Box will take you on a journey to explore this idea. Through the teachings of Guru Nanak Dev Ji, a fifteenth century poet, philosopher and social reformer, I will show you that a higher reality exists that soars above the reality you see when you open your eyes. The politics of life that sow the seeds of discord and discontentment in our minds pale into insignificance when you step into the higher reality. You will then see the universe for what it really is and the true meaning of life will become clear.
