I figured out what I was missing. - J) We are meant to identify with the androids. Their struggle to wake up and take charge of their own life is our struggle. The abuse they suffer represents the abuse we suffer at the hands of the corporate masters we serve. The rote routines the robots perform are similar to the rote routines humans perform. We are taught habits of thought and action that we repeat over and over again. George Ivanovich Gurdjieff [1] and his talk about "inner robot" we must over come first introduced me to this idea. His suggestion is to keep the constant awareness of one's eventual death front of mind to break us out of our automatic modes.

Steve Jobs Stanford commencement address expresses similar sentiments: No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don’t want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Life’s change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new. Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true. Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary. https://news.stanford.edu/2005/06/14/jobs-061505/ https://news.stanford.edu/2005/06/14/jobs-061505/
