The Rapid Development and Expansion of the Internet and World Wide Web (WWW) to encompass the Entire Earth and more recently the Proliferation of new forms of Artificial Intelligence (AI) can be seen as contributing towards the Emergence of a Global Brain. Aside from the fiber-optic cables and terrestrial wireless transmitters proliferating around the Earth, thousands of low-orbiting-satellites are being deployed to assure global reach. A vast array of high-tech devices and apps link the human population to this global brain. With the advent of brain-computer interface devices such as Neuralink and other neural-implants, humanity is moving towards a cyborgian future that will blur the distinction between human and machine. Such developments can be seen as a precursor to the Ahrimanically inspired vision of a transhuman and posthuman evolutionary future. The so-called Singularity Event that involves crossing a boundary into an unknown future can be seen as a technologically driven Threshold Event which coincides with the development of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) and the prospect of future Artificial Super Intelligence (ASI). This Singularity event can set the stage for a meeting with the Lower Guardian of the Threshold on a collective level. The adversarial forces preparing this threshold event will take full advantage of the fact that humanity will be inclined to cross this boundary unconsciously without the requisite faculties. How can those who are awake and watchful prepare?

Viewed from an Anthroposophical Perspective the Great Battle between Michael and His Hosts and Ahriman which Rudolf Steiner often spoke of can come into view. We shall look at these developments in relation to the most significant event of our time the Second Coming of Christ in the Etheric Realm.
