Physical reality is where the human body lives. A human being, on the other hand, lives on top of the body. This is similar to a software application running on top of the computer hardware. The human being is in the "physical" world, but not of it.
Technology allows physical bodies to do more than what they are naturally capable of doing, but the human being is not limited by the same things as the human body.
IOW, anything technology can do, the human being can do as well and more... if it can figure out how to.
Technology is built by and for those who do not know the powers of their own being. It is empowering because these people at least get a taste for what they can really do. It is limiting because without that technology, they are powerless (well not in the true sense. They think they are powerless, therefore they are). And at death, the technology will be taken away from them together with everything else in the "physical" world!
