The Maitreya and the Cyborg: Connecting East and West for Enriching Transhumanist Philosophy: "In this essay I would like to reflect on Eastern and Western philosophy, their definition of enlightenment, and their connection to transhumanist thinking. How may Buddhist concepts like ‘Bodhi’ and the ‘Maitreya’ relate to the Western ‘Enlightenment’, human enhancement, and post/transhumanism?
Although this sketch is far from complete at assessing, interpreting, and understanding the depth of each mentioned concept, I hope it will encourage new ways of thinking and stimulate discussions for the further advancement of transhumanist philosophy."
