Only a few decades ago, the idea that we are living in an illusion was considered preposterous by many. However, as time has gone by, a number of research projects focusing on the different aspects have concluded that we are indeed living in an illusion. To which, there is now a growing acceptance from the scientific community and the public at large.
Having said that, the idea that our world (universe) is illusory is not new. Consider, for example, the ancient Christian Gnostics with their accounts on the origins of the world (universe) simulation and how it came about. There are other ancient accounts from all over the world that are remarkably similar describing the origins of the simulation.
In retrospect of the above, here are 4 aspects duly confirming that we are living in an illusion.
What insights can you get from these aspects?
-Will the illusion continue to control you? Or, after reading, will you control the illusion?
Imagine that you are playing in a computer racing driver game, let’s say, the ‘Monaco Grand Prix.’ You’re bombing through the streets at lightning speeds… In this virtual reality setup, indeed, your computer screen mimics the window of a racing car.
Sure, it’s only a mockup of the real thing as you’re sitting safely and comfortably in your chair, but to a certain extent you believe it to be real as your senses are fooled…
Now, as it further develops, imagine how advanced this virtual reality technology could be in say 10,000 or even 100,000 years!
-You wouldn’t in any way be able to tell the difference between a simulation from real thing, right?
Well, according to modern-day researchers and the ancients, this what is happening. You’re living in an advanced technology-based fake reality you believe to be real while getting manipulated and disempowered as a consequence.
This fake reality, like the computer racing driver game, it needs your participation for it to exist (see 2, the follow-on).
Knowing that it’s all a virtual reality program, how would you interact with it in the profound realization of this?
In other words, in order for reality to exist, it needs your participation through observation. Another aspect that would have been dismissed years ago as a preposterous idea, but there is much evidence to support this claim.
There is no outside world. The world about you is all and only in your head: As you observe, the waveforms or frequencies “out there” change into electrical information that is processed by your 5-senses. The processing of your 5-senses is the decoder effect.
—The result is what you call ‘reality.’ But it’s only a technologically generated holographic reality based on your internal world perceptions.
Consider the following fascinating pieces of evidence to support the above:
Double-slit experiment and the “observer effect”
A classic example where your conscious observer participation defines reality can be shown in the double-slit experiment. I’ll explain.
Two beams of electrons go straight through vertical double-slits on a plate. The two single- filed electron beams coming from each slit then go on to impact a backdrop screen at a further distance. The backdrop screen records the patterns produced by the electron beams on impact. The interference patterns produced showed that the electrons beams behaved as wave forms.
Now, here’s where it gets interesting.
However, when a human observes this setup, instead of behaving as waves, the generator beamed electrons go through the double-slits then change into particles! This change from wave to particle form is shown as clumping patterns impacting the backdrop screen.
Reality changed, wave to particle forms, only because of human conscious observation. Hence the “observer effect.”
Placebo effect another case of consciousness manifesting reality
The placebo effect is when someone is falsely told that the drug they have taken is effective, not knowing that they have been administered something that has no efficacy. That it’s not really a drug. -It could be a tablet only containing sugar, or a saline solution if administered as an injection.
However, because of the person’s belief in the efficacy of the placebo (fake drug), their health improves in relation to what the administrator claims it can do, even though the treatment is inactive.
Here’s an amazing example of the placebo effect. It’s the case of a cancer patient and his treatment, the drug Krebiozen.
His doctor told him that Krebiozen was a highly promising breakthrough cancer drug. After the patient had been administered this drug his condition improved hugely. The doctor said that his tumor, after treatment, had shrunk from being the size of a golf ball down to nothing in the space of only several days.
However, it turned out that Krebiozen was not the breakthrough cancer drug it had been predicted to be. When the patient got hold of the newspaper telling him this drug had little effect, his tumor rapidly returned to the size of a golf ball again.
Then the doctor played a trick on the patient, telling him that a variant of Krebiozen had been developed and was now the breakthrough cancer drug they had been looking for.
Although there was no variant of Krebiozen and was, in fact, ineffective, because the patient believed in the doctor’s claim that it was the new breakthrough cancer drug, once again, the patient rapidly healed himself from his tumor…
-Placebo effect, another example where consciousness (power of faith or belief) manifests reality.
Contrary to mainstream science’s claims, there are things that go faster than the speed of light. The famous Einstein equation E = MC², as with other laws of physics, they are only confined to the illusion.
Author and Rupert Sheldrake has made this known with his research into morphogenetic fields. For example, telepathy can transfer instantaneously from one person to another. Consciousness is not limited to the speed of light.
Documented evidence for outer-body existences, such as near-death experiences show that as a conscious entity an individual can go from one place to another at the speed of no time at all.
Then there are cases of quantum entanglement whereby there are instant correlations between particles. One particle instantaneously affects the other…
These events are able to happen because they occur outside of the illusion.
The fact that solidity is believed to be real is only because it is perceived in the head to be that way.
You’re not able to walk through walls because these things are solid. No, it’s because the walls have an electrostatic repulsion. That is, no two objects, in this particular case, the wall and your body, can’t occupy the same volume of space due to their electrostatic repulsion on one another.
Physicist Leonard Susskind concluded from his research that the universe is holographic in nature: An illusory 3-D hologram informationally projected from 2-D black holes.
-This is consistent with the illusion of solidity. The matter making up the material universe consists of 99.9999% space!
However, space is also an illusion as everything is interconnected in the informational field.
As already mentioned, for example, when informational waveform impinges on us humans, we then decode it, change this information into our perceptual reality. -Our informational construct, care of the 5-senses.
Finally
The real insight to be gained from all this is the realization that we are not mere receivers of information whereby we are at the effect of.
We do have freedom of choice. We can create our reality by the way in which we direct our consciousness. After all, the illusion responds to how we direct our consciousness.
I have been saying it quite for some time and will never get tired of saying it:
Conscious is the key to world change
