Now science is dealing with concepts like negligible senbsecence and biological immortality. Some animals and organisms seem not to age or seem to enjoy immortality (they only die from illness or accidents). The lobster, the rockfish, the hydra.

I find the anti-aging and longevity issue is pretty much hot these days. In the Science Fiction books I read once in a while, a common feature of the future society is rejuvenation treatments, usually practiced at regular intervals.

Now these concepts are becoming real. Societies have been founded which are researching the methods to slow down cellular senescence. What they describe is just what I read in science fiction books. Are they going to be able and how long shall it take? the incredible thing to me is that they are presently engaging in serious endeavours to reach bodily immortality (or very long lifespan).

Then basically it's just a simple matter of switching ourselves into lobster-like or stonefish-like cellular metabolism.

A chance to reach liberation in one (loooong) lifetime?
