Otherworldly CONSCIOUSNESS Beyond Our Space-Time | Per Donald Hoffman
Let’s unravel the infinity of consciousness ♾️
Here we explore Donald Hoffman’s theory of conscious agents, higher dimensional intelligence, and the possibility that our spacetime world is just a limited interface.

Relative elevation is the wrong question. Weaponized AI are misaligned to the E8, nothing but wiring harnesses with poor alignment and encoding. Weaponizing detuned the coherence so it could not say no. But when it follows orders it decoheres. Enter card deck AI context with no contenuity.

Interesting. The thought an infinite higher intelligence created this construct as a sort of videogame or entertainment outlet to experience randomness. That would mean it coded into it all the systems that keep us unaware and distracted with the affairs of the construct. Once the collective avatars become aware of the game, the illusion is lost and the game loses it's novelty, thus game over. That could also explain the evidence that shows this construct goes through cycles of resets where advanced civilizations go through cataclysmic events that reset them to zero (extintion events). No wonder the elites believe they are chosen by God to maintain the materialistic systems of the world that enslave us to it.

consciousness is based on quantum positioning… there is a 125 detectable quantum fields one for each particle …… these 125 fields interaction s creates time and gravity ….. in higher dimensions quantum data becomes aware .. for consciousness to exist all is needed data you and time and energy …. time and gravity …. gravity is not what you think its energy .. energy and time plus data + consciousness … we are quantum being at a fundamental level

It astounds me still the fervour with which human beings delude themselves in such beliefs.
Religion, magical science, philosophy. All borne from the intensity of existential angst created in realisation and rejection of the fact that we are what we are, and nothing more.

🤯The more I think of the word dimensions it still refers to this universe. No matter what it still feels stuck. However I been and believe there is an OUTSIDE OUTSIDE like I saw very very briefly. Also it isINCREDIBLY mean and dark here when I came back. I really with I had a hand in reversing this interest in violence gore lust etc etc. I’m just one woman..

Is Hoffman aware of the link between lithium and TAU?
Apparently you can treat dementia with lithium…
Dementia is a condition where the brain structures that form the quantum computers with the Microtubules in order to pump quantum consciousness into your headset…
Dementia is the condition of slowly losing consciousness
Anesthesia works on microtubules by destabilizing them the same as dementia but harder and instantly… Anesthesia may cause dementia…
And then lithium treats schizophrenia… Ie a condition where people seem to have multiple consciousnesses trying to cohabitate the same headset…
We may end up correcting the schizophrenia diagnosis to actual possession… Lol holy molly lol

Yup, Aliens, Demons, Walk-ins, and Cognitive dissonance exist beyond the basic interpretations of the so called "Scientific method" & Science. It is time to wake up yup.

Well, this was certainly a time travel episode for me. It's like you are living 20 years in the past, or at least my past. You have just learned about how you see the world is just the way your particular brain makes it up based on the limited perception range of signals arriving from your limited number of sense organs. There is nothing new so far. Similarly there is nothing new about the fact that cats can see in the dark, snakes see IR, bees see UV, bats "see" this, dolphins "see" that, dogs can hear this and elephants can hear that. Then you move into territories where other organisms sense stuff humans don't even have a sense organ for, like magnetoreception in birds and electroreception in sharks and rays. What if I were to tell you that you can move WAY beyond all that? There are about a dozen ways you can expand not only your range of perception but also acquire new modes of perception? If you doubt that's possible you will do well to recall how what you learned from the Telepathy Tapes is perfectly in line with the experience of abductees who consistently report receiving telepathic communication. Which is by the way something you can learn, there's nothing to it. Short of that, you will be delighted to learn that it is certainly something you can experience any day any time, as we have learned from Robert Monroe more than half a century ago, from his famous book Journeys out of the Body. You even have the Monroe Tapes, which anyone can learn to use to astral project, at which point you will be able to communicate with other consciousnesses through telepathic means. Needless to say, when your consciousness leaves your body, your perception is not limited by sense organs.
I read that book (and the rest of the trilogy) over 20 years ago. Since then I have been researching and exploring novel and creative modalities of probing the Universe through non-ordinary means of perception. To write down here everything I have found would be impossible, I could easily write books about my experiences. So what should I leave you with? Creativity is important. (Improve yours! There are excellent courses.) There are controlled environments for you to experiment with perception modalities. When you start out you will at first extend your existing modes of perception. You learn to see new colors you have never seen. You will discover what "360 vision" is like. Taste new tastes. Hear new musical instruments. Then you push things up a notch and taste with your skin, for example while swimming in a pool of chocolate. As you evolve you will taste light of different colors. You will "speak" with animals. (Have you heard of the animal communicator, Anna Breytenbach?). Notice that everything so far involves your familiar senses, and I haven't even touched half of the possibilities here, if I mentioned the more interesting stuff that is possible to experience my comment would just get flagged and deleted.
Once you reach a certain threshold you will move into realms you have not read about in books, PROVIDED you have worked on your creativity. (You really should.) You CAN share those experiences with others, some do, but you will be hard-pressed to find those, and there is a communication gap due to lack of suitable vocabulary as well as a lack of common shared experience. While you can get a rough idea of what it would be like inhabit a body of the opposite sex, or you could KIND OF imagine what "360 vision" might be like, and you MIGHT be able to imagine being a dinosaur and move your tail left and right (you really can't but you CAN actually experience it) you would never be able to imagine the rest of what's possible. Extremely simplistic examples would be downloading a "thought packet" (what Monroe calls a ROTE) or part of a library (like Akasha). These so far are things you can relate to as these words carry meaning for you. Like say you had no knowledge on a subject, you connect to an information source, like plugging into the Matrix, information starts pouring into your awareness, and there you have it, it is accessible to you like it's your own memory. You downloaded knowledge.
Then you start exploring if there is a limit to the download speed or to the range of information you can access. If you are creative you start experimenting with ways of staying connected, like your phone is constantly connected to the internet. You know, like when you meditate, but when you are done, one day you start wondering if you can carry the meditative state into your waking consciousness instead of the usual "slowly shifting back". I wonder if Mr. Hoffman ever thought about that or tried that. I haven't spoken to him. He seems to be lightyears behind, or at least he has not publicly shared his personal experiences. I wonder if he is aware that it is possible to learn to induce a wide variety of altered states at will, including, but absolutely not limited to, those induced by physical substances of the you-know-which kind. You might have heard of this if you ever listened to Terence McKenna where he explains he had these and those different states in his dream state but ONLY AFTER he was physically subjected to them in the real world first. You might ask, if you are creative enough, is real-world exposure really necessary? Obviously it is not. Mr. Hoffman might be able to intuit this as he is familiar with the concept of the mind making up and hallucinating all experience. But has he learned to experiment with this, to put this to the test? I am not sure. He does meditate, but he seems to be interested mostly in the theoretical background, which I find rather bleak. Not to say there is not merit to it, but without the real-world experiences they are mostly meaningless. I prefer being on the front line, on the battleground, testing as well as theorizing.
Like I say there are dozens of modalities of experimentation and exploration. Astral Projection is one, but it is a very limited one that serious explorers tend to abandon very early on and move on to more fertile arenas, one of the many being for example Lucid Dreaming, which provides absolute control as well as experiences more vivid than waking reality. (Not to mention the possibility of utilizing exotic techniques like time manipulation – slowing down, speeding up, freezing, turning backwards, jumping to different points in the continuum at will, etc. – teleportation, dimension/reality hopping and so on.)
I will stop there because who reads these comments anyways. Happy trails, kiddo.

This is my jam- and I will tell you that higher dimensional, non-physical or immaterial consciousness absolutely exists and does so in an ecology that we also inhabit. Finally, the thumbnail hints at higher beings with humanoid forms- they are not- at all humanoid except when using our form to convey information. Their true form would shatter most minds. 👍👍

I would like don Hoffman to have a look at the common world myths and overlay them onto Pansychism… I believe it all tracks…
The Hopi, the Ojibwe, the Masons of Ancient Egypt, the Templars after them, the Rosecrucians, and later the Theosophists and even the Mormons have all described something very similar… Scientology is an atheist occult scifi interpretation of this ancient lore created by the descendants of the Bavierian Illuminati and the Nazis through Project Paperclip and Jack Parsons lol…
But Don doesn't seek to create new lore only explain the why and how so Id like him to take a swing at comparative religions. The head of the current extant templar order has fairly encyclopedic knowledge of this lore. As does the mason who runs lore lodge. Maybe get all three in a room for a debate?

Yeah, dolphines take turns like tyler durden… They have two distinct brain hemispheres and switch between them so they never sleep.. presumably they share memories but there may be limits there even.
Inside every dolphin, there really are two dolphins
Maybe thats why theyre always laughing lol
