Virtual realities are a normal thing for me to think about now.
Stories are virtual realities, and as a marketer my job is to help someone imagine himself in a story he wants to inhabit so he'll pay to bridge the gap from the one he's in.
Taxonomies are a virtual framework we use as a heuristic to make snap decisions. They're like tags we assign to objects in a VR/AR space.
The reality I lived in as a kid included many misinterpretations, and I'm sure I have unlimited old and new misconceptions in my head now. Since misconceptions are part of my perceptual framework, I'm mentally inhabiting a virtual reality as opposed to the real reality my body inhabits.
I suppose that is one way to look at it. Dreams are virtual realities, and if you're fortunate to ever have lucid dreams, they are controllable realities.
I've been being exposed to this idea on video casts and other fringe sites that reality itself is virtual - a construct. Not the normal "reality is a projection" stuff from quantum physics - more metaphysical, spiritual stuff - about how the frequency we vibrate at attracts the energy that manifests in our reality - everything about it, our success or failure, our achievements or disappointments, our circle of friends, everything about how we perceive and experience reality is something we subconsciously manifest into our reality.
It isn't "power of positive thinking," exactly - because it is more something the CIA evidently researched and wrote papers on and there are techniques to tap into this - basically synchronizing the frequency of your right and left brain. We're all probably doing this to a certain extent, but our own subconsciousness, our ID and EGO and our own sense of self would certainly play a part in creating situations we find unfavorable. You know, the argument is, "if this could be done, everyone would subconsciously seek the most comfortable, pleasant, pleasurable and rewarding life. But that isn't true. If we also exist as a higher consciousness - perhaps it decided to "play the game on extreme instead of easy" mode. Or maybe though we want things consciously, there is something internal inside ourselves that rejects that desire, that prevents it from being manifest in our lives. I feel like I've always touched on this. The life I lead is not one I ever had any expectation of achieving - but almost entirely, the things I've desired most, have been manifest in my life, with a few exceptions that have always come tantalizingly close yet escaped me.
Here. Follow this link. The guy gets a little less-than-credible at points - but I've seen other people on the fringe talking about this CIA Gateway process too - and one of them is a skeptic, who thinks that the document and research absolutely did happen among the CIA.

This is the sort of thing I'm talking about when I say magic is real. I just need to vibrate better hahaha
Well, here is the problem. Let's say they're right, you can get your right and left brain functioning on the same harmonic frequency by meditation and breathing and focused thinking, and that by achieving that - you can start to attract and achieve the specific frequency you want - rigging the game - basically decoding the matrix and reprogramming it to the reality you want, within the framework of the rules of the construct... possibly even bending them a little... which is where you get paranormal and other metaphysical events and experiences. Miracles and superhero feats.
There are multiple problems with this.
First off - the frequency you currently vibrate at, even if you feel it is miserable - is what you've subconsciously chosen to manifest in THIS reality - which may not be the ULTIMATE reality. You are aware of THIS manifestation of you in this reality, but what if there is an ultimate reality where you are not only aware of THIS manifestation, but of ALL manifestations, in their ultimate form? What if you are just an aspect of a larger multidimensional entity or some other concept WAY beyond our ability to even fully comprehend from within the box of THIS reality we exist in?
That brings us to the second part. Probably because of my experimentation with strong psychoactive psychedelic hallucinogens as an adolescent, I think I've got a real firm grasp on the idea that exploring the various portals of perception of reality is a dangerous thing that requires a very particular kind of mindset. Really, whatever you call this, regardless of if you approach it from metaphysical spiritualism or a more scientific nature - *everyone* who claims to have experience with this kind of thing, regardless of how they achieve it, warn of the incredible risk to the self that exists in these avenues of awareness and understanding. The Christian approach is to simply call it evil, and to accept that trusting obediently in God is the only way to safely navigate your purpose. The whole idea of "let go and let God," basically encapsulates the idea, "the more you know, the more you're going to fuck it up, so just don't worry about it all and trust in His ability to get you were you need to go."
And, that actually probably isn't bad advice.
It seems like psychoactives and narcotics are kind of a short-cut to break through the barriers, without the discipline and dedication and training that more spiritual paths to heightened awareness of realities require. Often those more spiritual pathways employ these kind of substances anyhow - but only *after* the disciple has learned the discipline and training necessary to safely navigate where they've been taken - and if we believe the oral history of humanity in this regard, even for those with deep wells of discipline and experience - some realities that might accidently be discovered are still very dangerous - it is easy even for the skilled veteran to end up lost as they explore beyond our own perception of what it means to be.
Letting go of ego is such a huge part of most spiritual paths - accepting one's insignificance and fallibility and general incompetence and being at peace with it. It isn't just Eastern and East-Indian philosophies that focus on this, Judeo-Christian and Western spiritual paths, Native American spiritual paths, primitive hunger-gatherer spiritual paths - they all tend to focus on enlightenment being achieved by first letting go of the concept of self, of individual identity, of being in any way superior to any other organism, let alone another human. Almost ALL of us are terrible at this, including most of our spiritual leaders, in modern society.
So, not only is the frequency we normally resonate at evidently the one we are actually subconsciously choosing, but also, seeking to control the energies that allow us to fine tune that harmonic resonance exposes ourselves to truths about our reality, or existentialism - that most of us do not have the fortitude in our psyche, ID and ego, to actually confront.
There were several times when I was very high that I was introspecting my mind, my thoughts, in a way that felt very much like astral projection, like "out of body" travel - but not in a tangible, hallucinogenic visual reality, and not in *thought* - but in a visual, tangible way that I can't *describe* through the way we perceive reality. It might be like - seeing the CODE of the matrix instead of experiencing it from inside it - so more like *reading* reality like a book while visualizing it than just simply *watching* it as a participant, like a movie.
And I felt like I had reached the end - like a wall... a barrier or grid - and I felt a knowledge, or really a conservation - something OUTSIDE of me telling me it would pull back that curtain and show me what was beyond, or anyhow that the barrier was an illusion, and if I just pushed on, I'd see behind it and know everything. This happened several times near the end of my experiments with narcotics and other substances. In each case, the promise beyond that wall was incredibly magnetic, the desire to cross over was huge, but each time, the overwhelming fear and anxiety that accompanied the idea of looking beyond drove me immediately back into my present, in a very lucid and aware sense for someone high AF on powerful psychedelics. Drugs of these type help us perceive the irrational world which our waking, unaffected minds insist on rationalizing.
So, in order to tamper with the frequency that you're at *intentionally*, assuming these things are true - and there really is a mountain of evidence that there is *something* to this, then you've really got to have the fortitude of mental and psychic stability to explore the places that path may lead - and almost all of us do not have that. In order to get to that point, you basically give up the reasons that *motivate* a person to want to go down that path in the first place. People with incredible spiritual, psychic and mental peace are generally - well, fucking intolerable bores who seem condescending in their certainty that *nothing* in the material world really matters. In fact, most people who achieve this level of human enlightenment give up on *all* the comforts of material life - universally, cross culturally, without cross pollination of those spiritual ideas. They can exist not just without comfort, but without things we think are essential, food, water, respiration and heart-beat.
This is where my trouble with psychedelics originated. I realized I was approaching the areas of the mind that are automatic, and that I could very easily accidently alter an automated routine in the human body. I look at the world very programmatically - and before I knew about Tibetan monks who can put themselves in states of suspended animation - I had this realization that I was getting into the parts of my mind where I could chew my tongue off without ever feeling any pain or even being aware I was doing so, or accidentally stop my heartbeat. I was in the code banging on the keyboard changing lines without actually knowing what code I was fucking with.
I think you've got 4 kinds of people. Those who can accidentally see "behind the curtain" and they're just not really awake or intelligent enough to be affected by it, to understand or process it. They're the folks who can spend a lifetime doing heavy drugs with no ill effects. They've encountered these things, but they dismiss it as just another trick of perception that the drugs caused them to misperceive - and they cast it aside, untroubled by it. They're naturally blue-pills - and they're often hostile debunkers of things that cause doubt on the narrative of reality they accept. They're less evolved - and probably operate on a very basic universal harmonic frequency. 2nd stage folks, if they accidentally see behind the curtain, it shatters their psyche, best case scenario. The guys you see pushing shopping carts around and having animated arguments with street-signs downtown - they went too far - and made it back, but incomplete. I'm actually one of these guys - and I know other guys like this too. I just am generally able to keep up the facade of being mostly together. But sometimes, I see that look in other people's eyes that they recognize something intrinsically *different* about me in a way that makes them uncomfortable - sometimes when I'm ranting or being a little too honest or candid or free of their narrow definitions of what is permissible in our society - it is almost like I can read their thoughts. I'm undamaged enough that generally I can dial it back when I realize my intensity about something is *too* much for them. Some of my friends who "burned out" simply have no idea that the things they're saying, the way they're acting - seems like ranting gibberish to normal people. 3rd stage folks are the ones, I suppose like me, who managed to get a glimpse at the wall, or even behind it, and came away from it without being torn completely apart, despite not being ready to confront such a thing.
The 4th stage people are the monks, the wizards, the magicians and sorcerers, the witches, shaman, real priests, fakirs and other spiritually enlightened folks, the Teslas and other mad geniuses - who figured it out and in the process transcend what we generally think of as being human. It is worth noting that nothing *mattered* to Tesla - that he didn't seek recognition and died penniless. Something made him realize that the measures of success for our society were trivial and unimportant to him. He was fearless to the point of madness - as if he had no concern about our temporal reality. Certainly I think some of humanity discovers whatever understanding lies behind and decides to use it selfishly, or callously, for their own benefit - most likely even understanding that though material pleasures and successes in this world don't really matter, to enjoy the piece of cyber-steak as they sit at the table with Agent Smith in the Matrix anyhow. So we'll call that level 4a and 4b. Two paths which you can go by once you see the other side. DaVinci was probably among this group. And there are probably two categories here - those who unconsciously have simply achieved this level of universal frequency. I guess here I should say I think our energy is eternal, it recycles, reincarnates, redirects - and probably evolves over iterations in this matrix/construct. Or that is probably the goal, anyhow. To keep playing the simulation until you get your frequency tuned as perfectly as possible. So someone like Steve Jobs, though he was evidently a spiritual person who probably did explore these ideas - was also simply born already a highly evolved frequency, innately better at projecting and attracting this frequency than someone who is a 1st or 2nd stage harmonic.
Then there are those who are at the 4th stage and consciously pursue harnessing and manipulating their frequency toward higher levels of consciousness and understanding through drugs, philosophy, theology, spiritualism and other avenues.
And there is a strong correlation with intellect here. The higher frequencies vibrate with more intelligence. But the higher intelligence, in the middle stages - can be a great liability. Smart enough to grasp the concept, but not smart enough to get over the self. That is where a LOT of people attracted to this kind of idea are - honestly - and it is more dangerous to them than to anyone else.
So to bring it all around - I think either I'm just innately able to kind of direct my reality to where it attracts the things I want, or that I got a peek at how this works when I was young, and while I turned away before it shattered me *or* I fully understood it, that *is* the point at which my life really seems to have just taken a completely different road than anyone, including myself, expected. I didn't escape unscathed - but I also got close enough that it shifted my frequency higher and I subconsciously started directing my reality in a different direction. I have a specific trip in mind, a specific event - where you may have heard me say in the past, I look back at that night and wonder if I survived it, if I'm not convulsing outside the Crest theater on K-Street right now as a police officer tries to keep me alive, foaming at the mouth - and all of THIS is my dying dream. It is still 1985, I'm still 15, and all of this is the fantasy my dying mind is telling me to ease my crossing. 40 years of experience condensed into a last few breaths. Because if you knew me the first 15 years of my life, *nothing* about the last 30+ makes a lot of sense - other than that I just really *always* knew that I could achieve this - but also knew I couldn't achieve *more*. Everything happened right on time for me - and not like, coincidence - but exactly on the timeframe I always thought it would. When I was a kid and I'd play with action figures or role playing, I was always "24". 24 is when I decided to really hang up being a kid and get married. I always saw my 30s as a time of professional advancement and affluence building - something in technology or finance. That happened, despite being a high school drop out. I also knew I wouldn't be able to maintain it for an entire traditional career. That ended, not because of me, but because of shifts in demographics and the rise of "woke hiring principles" in corporate America, in my 40s, and I settled into the role of house-husband, which was comfortable. At the end of it all, my wife had achieved a place where her salary was equal to what I would have wanted our combined income to be - conveniently enough. None of this is incompatible with Christian philosophy to me. It all still resides in God's plan and His omnipotence. This isn't to me some new age, "see yourself in the future you want to be in order to have it," motivational bullshit. I think it actually aligns with Christian theology very well and isn't about "self-fulfilled" destiny. At least not as I think it has applied in my life. I think it is possible that it can be harnessed for self-fulfilled destiny - and used like that, it probably isn't in harmony with Christian theology. In fact, it would seem that Christian philosophy speaks directly *against* using this kind of thing in that manner - for many of the reasons I suggest above, but also probably for many more unseen to me.

Reading this, it made me wonder how many pieces like this there are hidden in out of the way dirty back alleys of the Internet - little insights and observations that should be - circulating and aren't.
There is something parallel to the idea of 4th level harmonics not caring about material pursuits there. I've no real interest in sharing my ideas broadly with humanity - at least not these ones. I am aware most people can't even begin to start to comprehend these kind of thoughts and just dismiss it as metaphysical spiritual gobbledygook. It is a pointless effort to witness or evangelize thoughts like these - you've got to put them out there and let them draw in people on the same wavelength - and so there will be very few that show up. :)
