In considering species development and transference of consciousness, one must examine the foundational attributes inherent to the original organism. For instance, humans can be viewed as evolved counterparts of primates, sharing foundational characteristics that influence behavior and capabilities, which we continue to adapt and refine.
To illustrate, imagine a scenario where we possess the ability to transfer our consciousness to an alien species, after traveling to distant planets. Suppose we select a native species, modify its DNA to suit our needs, and then instill our consciousness within this modified organism. As this species continues to procreate and evolve on this new planet, foundational characteristics of the original organism would persist.
Let's consider the example of modifying an octopus-like creature from another planet. Despite significant genetic alterations to accommodate our consciousness, inherent traits of the original octopus would remain and be passed on to subsequent generations. These inherent traits act as a foundational crust, upon which the modified attributes—representing the pie—are built.
As the species evolves over centuries, the modifications we introduced will interact with and be influenced by the foundational traits of the original organism. This foundational crust, being intrinsic to the species, will persist and cannot be altered post-consciousness transfer, thus continuously influencing the development and characteristics of the evolved species.
Reflecting on this concept, we can draw parallels with human behavior, where certain actions might not align with what we perceive as inherently “human,” particularly those actions deemed harmful or unethical. These seemingly incongruent behaviors can be traced back to our primal ancestors, revealing a connection to more instinctual, untamed characteristics.
These behaviors suggest a struggle between the primitive instincts inherited from our ancestral lineage and the refined consciousness that defines our humanity. In instances where consciousness is not fully awakened or is inexperienced—perhaps indicative of a younger soul—there might be a diminished capacity to control or moderate these primal instincts.
This interplay between foundational instincts and evolving consciousness is pivotal in shaping behavior, underscoring the necessity of acknowledging and understanding our intrinsic nature as we develop as a species. The scenario illustrates that, despite our capabilities to alter and adapt species, foundational attributes persistently influence the evolution and behavior of the resultant beings.
