How Reality Works

This came to me during a [temporary RAM upgrade]...

Given, everything we experience throughout our entire lives is accessed through our various senses:

Sight
Hearing
Smell
Taste
Touch
Proprioception
Kinesthesia
Equilibrioception
Nociception
Sense of time
Thermoception
Magnetoception[mild]
Various "internal senses"
etc.

[see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Senses]


Our brain is the system which processes and perceives the collective of all of our senses which create our reality.


Now the insight I had is this:

Imagine your body or maybe even your soul in a black void.

Now imagine electrical signals or frequencies coming of your body interacting with this image of reality that is around you.

The "black void" is like a layer that is in between your body and your image of reality, almost like a bubble.


So in summation, all of reality is sensed through "frequency waves" which actually "create" the reality around you.


The "frequencies" are the senses, the thoughts, everything...


This gives me an understanding of the whole concept of "creating your reality" by changing your thought frequencies. As someone put it in the past, I don't think the universe is a big "vending machine" for your every whim. But I do think that there is something to it. Thought frequencies are just a small part of it, but it does work. In the science of psychology it's called a "self-fulfilling prophecy." It has happened to be before, where I get a streak of "good luck" or "bad luck" depending on how my frame of mind is at that point in time.

Maybe the problem with this is that the thought itself is a frequency, and you have to learn to control the frequency behind the thought.

We only use 10% or less of our brains, so I think it takes a lot of learning to expand the utilization of your brain. There is no answer on how to "hack your brain." I believe that at the apex of this, or 100% brain utilization, you are one with God and can create your own reality in the sense that if you want, there is no floor or sky, you just disappear into a void where the void becomes your canvas of whatever reality you want to create.
There is no answer on how to do it, different people take different paths, whether it be shaping your thoughts, spirituality, ancient, modern, and personal religions, philosophies, and belief systems, learning, metacognition, studying the brain/mind, meditation, magic, necromancy, ritual, drugs, dreams, the sleep state, technology, music, etc.

An aside about technology, which I have always believed and I think it is relevant here:
It is hard to put into words. But there is this duality between technology and spirituality.
Even using those two words are limiting, but think of these two concepts:

I: technology, machine, systematization, bureaucracy, modernity, cyber, metropolis, the future, singularity, transhumanism, etc.

II: spirituality, the spirit realm, religion, tribes, the ancient, paranormal, ESP, etc.

It's hard to lump words into these two "concepts," but hopefully one gets the idea...

I & II, technology and spirituality, the future and the ancient, etc. seem to be two vast polar opposites.

But I propose integrating the two.
Strike that, it's already happening in labs all around the world.

Science is proving things that were long known be many ancient religions.

For example, in science we have the theory of "quantum entanglement," in religion we have the theory of "monism."

It seems as though the world of spirituality and technology are colliding.


My belief is that one can find enlightenment or reach "nirvana" through technology.

One method could be through a device such as a "God Helmet."
[see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/God_helmet]


That more or less is an example of what my pseudonym "mechanesthesia" means to me.
It's the integration of the two concepts above.

"mecha" and "aesthesia"

A machine who senses.

-Technology, Mechanization, The System
versus or vis-à-vis
-Sensation, Feeling, our ancient roots [including ESP, psychometry, mediumship, clairvoyance, our connection to the spirit world and other realms of consciousness, etc., which I believe is part of the 90% of the brain we don't use]



P.S. Fuck you Twitter. I was almost thinking of posting this thought in 140 characters or less.
