Özet: The rapid development of technology around the world and the metaverse, which is promoted as an enhanced digital world of freedom, is expected to have positive and negative effects on humanity in many ways. These effects are disseminated and augmented by a multitude of digital platforms today. With digital perception management to a certain extent, users are manipulated and guided through their urges motivated by pleasure-seeking, while this new digital order makes it difficult for people to adapt to life spiritually or self-actualize. The metaverse, as the new reality we are facing today, will completely change the order of priority in Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, and the fact that people quickly jump on this bandwagon unaware of being manipulated by their desires is sure to have many serious consequences in the near future. Therefore, raising awareness to understand the imminent risks is crucial before rushing into this new digital paradise. This awareness can be raised with the light shed by philosophers in line with their predictions and ideas on human creation. Thus, the issues analyzed in this article offer a roadmap towards understanding the subjective cognitive processes underlying the mainstream attitudes and perspectives to the metaverse.
