An alternative to the Simulation Hypothesis

The Simulation Hypothesis, if you aren't already familiar with it argues that it is mathematically, probabilistically virtually impossible that we are not living in a simulated universe. That would imply that nothing you see is real from the perspective that there is a greater reality beyond anything that one could ever experience or be aware of within the context of this current reality.

From a mathematics perspective, it is hard to argue with the conclusion, given the assumptions, but the problem with the argument is that it is descriptive in nature only. It offers no solutions whatsoever to the problems of life. Of course that may not be the purpose, however we would assume that there are many out there looking for solutions to life's problems which is why they are interested in arguments such as the Simulation Hypothesis.

So we will not argue against the Hypothesis but simply add context and offer a solution that is practical.

The main thrust of the Simulation Hypothesis, the main reason it is compelling in a purely emotional sense is that it seems to explain, in a way, that feeling that we all have in the back of our minds that something is not quite right in this world. That feeling that one has as a child that one learns to suppress because the adults around us just don't have time to talk about such things because they are too busy making money!

What is that thing in the back of our minds that we all know and yet seldom express?

No one is happy.

Now, some will react and defend their happiness because that is their right and their apparent free choice to do so, but we will simply ask you, "How can you be happy when so many suffer in this world?"

Whatever happiness you may experience in your life, if you are honest, you know is only fleeting, not eternal, not lasting, not based on anything real, in fact only a chemical experience in your brain that you believe is 'the purpose of life'. It is just a feeling. It is, in fact, a SIMULATION of happiness.

Real happiness would be an eternal joy that never ends and has no bounds or limits and always expands. That is actually what Life really is, though neither you nor I can really imagine it or even find adequate words to describe it because all our thoughts, our emotions, even our logic are merely simulated. They never seem able to describe anything outside of what we already know. They are by definition limited because they are the result of the current system in which we have been indoctrinated, cultivated, educated, brainwashed; whatever fancy word you want to use. Your imagination is simply a rearranging of what you are aware of as that which is already here, which is limited by design as we have talked about in previous posts.

Yes, we do live in a simulation, in the sense that what we are all experiencing right now is not REAL LIFE. However that does not mean that there is some greater reality and it certainly does not mean that we are completely helpless to do anything about our current situation.

See, whether or not there is a greater reality, the real question one should ask is: what can be done about THIS REALITY. And this is where a grasp of the concept of equality will assist.

When we say Equality, we do not mean that which is promulgated by the left as some sort of social Utopia, nor that which is demonized by the right as some communistic, computer-controlled hell-hole of conformity.

Equality is in fact the nature of our reality. If you want to think we live in a simulation, then you can think of equality as being the base program. Equality, as it actually exists in our world, implies that you can be nothing more than what you really are or than what is here. You can be less, yes, in the sense that you can abdicate your responsibility for what you are and what is here and thus allow others to direct you and the rest of reality with your (perhaps uninformed) consent, or you can take full and total SELF-responsibility for what you are and for what reality is and thus be an equal co-creator. But much like a well-run sports team, you have a part to play and you can be your very best, but if you try to be the star at the expense of everyone else, then over time you will not have a very effective team. Currently we have lots of stars, lots of terrible players, and everyone else basically on the sidelines. To be the best team, you must learn your place in the team, but also develop your own individual skill to a point as close to perfection as possible, and realize that when the team wins, you win.

So, now we come to the point of 'self-perfection' which is where one do everything within one's power to be the very best version of themselves possible. However, if one is not totally honest with oneself as to what one really is and what the limitations are, in other words, if one allow a point of mental disorder which is trying to be MORE than what one is, then one will have a problem. If you are trying to program a computer, you must understand what the limits of the hardware and the OS are if you are to utilize the computer to its full capacity.

You must realize that there IS a physical world. It is not an illusion, as the Simulation Hypothesis might lead one to believe. But you can verify this fact yourself. Try not eating or not shitting for several days. Eventually the physical reality will "remind" you of its actuality. If one truly believed that the physical world is not real then you could REALLY put that to the test but you won't because you know the veracity of what I'm saying.

Now, reality is physical, but its also PROGRAMMABLE. How can you verify this for yourself? Easy, go plant an apple seed in fertile soil, give it plenty of water, and make sure there is sunshine and in a certain predictable amount of time, you will have an apple tree. A seed is a program. Now, is there even one aspect of our reality that is not like that? I challenge you to find even one. The major problem with this is that we do not want to be honest with ourselves and each other about this simple fact. But remember, if we are not honest about reality then equality will dictate that we will be less than what is here. There is no 'transcending reality' because reality is what is real. In your mind you can do all kinds of imaginative things and pretend like you are some kind of magical being or a hero or a victim or any number of things but you'll find that when you come back to reality none of that will make any difference. You will still have to eat, shit, piss, and have sex. Only someone with a severe mental disorder would try to deny these things. Someone who is truly rational would realize the simplicity of this, and then make sure these points are taken care of for oneself. Someone who is truly enlightened, someone truly 'full of love', would realize that we have not designed our systems, which are the functional aspects of reality that in fact program how reality moves, to make sure that all have these physical points taken care of. Instead we have an educational system, a governmental system, and at the root a money system which is based in the belief that human nature is flawed inherently and thus one must prove themselves to be of value in this world and thus worthy of having their basic needs met. In fact, we can design a system that gives to all equally, that enables each one to become effective with that which we as humans use to function in the system and in relationship to each other which is symbols (words and numbers). If you read our last post you understand somewhat how the elite deliberately mess with children from a young age to prevent them from being effective with language and mathematics (through schooling and advertising/television) so that they never challenge the system as it is. But they don't realize they are screwing themselves over in the process because they are creating human beings which are even less than animals, because even animals do not attack unprovoked. But a human who cannot meet their basic needs becomes very dangerous, which we are all starting to see around the world already.

The only solution is to stop living as a simulation of a human being, which means to live in a fantasy in your mind as being some great and wonderful person with apparent free choice and to realize that YOU HAVE NO CHOICE and live as a REAL PERSON, which means taking responsibility for how you and the world around us is programmed as the systems that we as humans influence through agreements based on language. You live in a physical reality that is programmed. And thus everything you see playing out in the world is just a program unfolding. Adjust the program, the result changes. But be careful not to adjust programs where you don't really know what you are doing because then you end up with entire crop failures (e.g. Monsanto and genetic engineering of seeds).

How can we make a difference then? We can make a difference by realizing the points that require to be adjusted so that the program that unfolds is one that gives to each what they need and provides the fertile soil so that each one can develop into their full potential. The human being, as it is naturally, is an amazingly advanced biological machine. That natural ability is being suppressed just like you would suppress the full blooming of a plant by denying it adequate water, nutrients, and sunlight. The primary systems that can be adjusted at this stage are education, politics, and the money system, because those are completely man-made, and also the ones that determine the overall programming of the human being, especially the child.

But for us to be able to impact the system in those ways to make adjustments in a peaceful manner will require those who are in a position to do so to take responsibility for themselves and see how they have been programmed to act in ways that seem like they contribute to one's survival but in fact ultimately only contribute to the survival of a flawed system. And for that you must be willing to investigate how you have been programmed through language and mathematics to be less than what you are capable of. That is something we will explore more in time. But the first step to self-perfection lies in self-honesty about what one really is and what one has accepted oneself to be.

The way to get out of this Simulation is not by escaping, but by becoming completely one with and equal to it, because one ACTUALLY IS IT! Remember Neo in the Matrix: There is no spoon. Thus for you to bend the spoon, you must realize, you are the spoon. In other words, the system is based on agreements which are designed in language and mathematics, and in order for the system to change you must become equal to words and mathematics and change the system from within as oneself. Step up, change, show others how you have changed, support them to change, and thus the system can be changed. Perhaps this is what Gandhi meant when he adjured us to "be the change we want to see in the world."

You don't know what you don't know.


Let's do an exercise that will show us the difficulty that can arise for oneself when our vocabulary is limited.

The words we use and associate with other words determine how we will express and behave.

For example, let's say we ask ourselves: Do I believe building wealth is easy? Whether you answer yes or no, you have limited yourself.

Here is why: The word easy means many things. Some of which you might see as supportive of building wealth and some as detrimental. And we haven't even looked at our definition of "wealth".

When you use the word easy, do you realize it means all of the following:

easy:

ADJECTIVE

1. posing no difficulty; requiring little effort.
2. not hurried or forced
3. free from worry or anxiety
4. affording pleasure
5. having little impact
6. readily exploited or tricked
7.in fortunate circumstances financially; moderately rich
8. marked by moderate steepness
9. affording comfort
10. casual and unrestrained in sexual behavior
11. less in demand and therefore readily obtainable
12.obtained with little effort or sacrifice, often obtained illegally

The issue is, you don't necessarily know what definitions you have accepted over your lifetime regarding even this word because the word and how it is associated to other words you know exists at a physical level (in the connections between neurons in your brain) beneath your conscious awareness. And even your ability to figure out how the words are connected can be affected by other words and associations that were put there by television, school, your parents, peers, and other things in your environment that may have been designed to deliberately limit you.

Your entire movement in your environment is determined by the connections in your brain which directs even your muscle movement through your nervous system. And if your ability to interact with others, build relationships, work, communicate, etc is based on words in our system, then pretty much everything in your life is determined by your vocabulary (the words you know and how they are defined and connected to the other words you know). That feeling of "just knowing" something is actually just a result of your body being effective in that environment or within processing a certain piece of information. Hence the phrase, "You don't know what you don't know".

So unless you have specified your vocabulary to allow you to interact effortlessly in a particular environment you will not be able to function effectively in that environment. And this is why we have different classes of society. It is all words.

Education secrets THEY don't want YOU to know about


Let me ask you a question. Do you think our education systems in this world support most people to fulfill their true potential?

If you answered yes, then you might be an elitist. If you answered no, then you might actually have some common sense left.

Why do we say that?

In a certain sense, philosophy runs the world. You might be thinking, "but most people don't study philosophy so how could that be true?" Because it is not people's knowledge of the history or various subjects of philosophy that runs the world, it is the beliefs, ideas, and relationships between yourself and others that determine how our world functions at a physical level. Of course there are physical relationships that exist in this world, but those are by and large determined through agreement. Look at the economy for example. Most people in this world don't make enough to survive while a few have more wealth than is necessary to live even the most luxurious life possible. And yet our economic system is not 'natural.' It is a function of the relationships between money and business and law that we have agreed to, or at least acceded to, at some level. And yet most of us have no real idea of how the economy actually functions, how business functions, how law functions, how government functions, etc. Still, we go along with these things due to basic assumptions that generally things cannot be different. This is due to the way knowledge and information is structured within us. Most of us are not even aware of most of the information within us and the relationships formed between the various points of information (which are really just words). "You don't know what you don't know," as the saying goes. 

So in this way, our behaviors and the systems which to a large degree determine the range of choices of behaviors that are possible for us, depending mostly on one's access to financial resources, are determined by the relationships between words within us. These relationships of words within us form a structure of knowledge which we can call, for lack of a better word, one's philosophy of life.

If you are not sure what your own personal philosophy is you can at least see the effects of it by asking yourself questions like: should everyone have their basic survival needs taken care of from birth or should everyone have to compete with each other to survive?

or: do you believe everyone has the capacity to be successful, happy, and effective in their life?

If you study the elitist philosophers (a philosopher is essentially someone who writes down their thought processes) and scientists (some who writes down their observations) they believe that people are born knowing what they know and their abilities and cognitive capacities are set in stone from birth. They believe that learning is not real, that education has no purpose, and that the masses must be conditioned and controlled to behave in a way that does not cause conflict within society. Don't believe me? Read Plato's "The Republic". Or read Descartes' writings. Or read John Dewey's "Democracy and Education". Hobbes' "Leviathan" is essentially an instruction manual for the king to run a deep state operation where the ire of the people never turns back on the real seat of power. Perhaps you see that playing out in US politics at the moment. Perhaps not. That depends a lot on your own personal philosophy (which you don't choose, by the way, because it is a result of your education, unless of course you have taken complete personal responsibility for your own education which is highly doubtful.)

To be clear, there are really two types of elite in this world. There are the value creators and the value destroyers. The value destroyers are also called the "parasitical elite". They are parasites living off of the value production of others and have no interest in raising others up, because they want complete and total control. They don't care about anything except for protecting their own position and status in life. They will work with others only to the degree that they believe or perceive that it will protect their status. This is why you see the creation of secret societies. They are "safe spaces" for the elite.

The beneficial elite are usually those who are effective in the system and thus generally make a lot of money or have a lot of influence but are interested in what is best for everyone. And you see varying degrees of this depending on the person, because the limits of their personal philosophy will determine the limit of what they see and understand as "best for everyone" but generally they recognize that the more they uplift others they more they uplift themselves. Jesus was one of these types and this is what he was trying to tell the world. Not that stuff about accepting you needing a savior (i.e. the elite.) That is the drivel that is promoted by the parasitical elite who just want to control you. Jesus was trying to tell everyone, at a point where people were starting to awaken to the fact that the voices in their head were not gods and demons but actually coming from themselves. Jesus was trying to say, "Hi, fellow sentient beings. If you want to have a better world then you have to use your sentience in a benevolent manner." You know, the whole "treat your neighbor as yourself" thing. But the church after a while, thanks to probably "Saint" Augustine, set the stage for sentient beings to be controlled even more by a little thing called "guilt" which is basically using one's own thoughts as a weapon against oneself and creating a little "policeman in the head".

So around the turn of the 19th century into the beginning of the 20th century with the accumulating body of knowledge (remember: observations), the elite began to understand how the human works at a physiological level. By the 1970's they knew the secrets to success (see: Napoleon Hill and Johnson O'Connor) they knew what people needed to be happy (see: Abraham Maslow), the knew how to condition people to respond predictably to stimuli (see: BF Skinner) and they knew how learning actually takes place in the brain (see: the work of Terje Lomo in the 1960's  in the field of neuroscience). They realized that actually anyone could change given the right conditions and that this could be used to a person's benefit or to their detriment. It is not nature VERSUS nurture. It's the balance between the two and your starting point that matters. A world that is best could be achieved by creating a supportive environment conducive to each person engaging and developing their inherent potential to its fullest expression. Or this process could be deliberately subverted and one's basic needs could be used as weapons against them to force them into submission.

So the elite now had a choice: they could share the secrets of what they had actually always benefited from without fully understanding it with the rest of the world or they could keep the secrets to themselves. But they also faced a dilemma. They could share these secrets and potentially face the wrath of all those who have been kept down or they could try and continue to dumb everyone down and hope the savages don't revolt.

The problem with this dichotomy is actually a fundamental problem of the parasitical elitist philosophy. See, what drives the negative elitist mindset is FEAR, which is the other side of DESIRE. The elite DESIRE control because they FEAR for their own survival. And yet by focusing on that, they create the conditions that threaten EVERYONE'S survival. We have created a competition-based system where we must all fight for survival. And before you give me that BS argument from primitivism that "well animals fight for survival so its just natural" you can just stop reading right now because there is probably no hope for you. YOU ARE NOT JUST AN ANIMAL. Yes you have an "animal body" but you also have a MIND capable of REASONING. You can change your own nature if you just know how it operates and what the physical mechanisms are. 

Buckminster Fuller talked about the "trim tabs" which are the little tiny rudder attached the much larger main rudder on a ship. Turning the main rudder is hard, but turning the trim tab is easy. And by turning the trim tab, it makes it easier to turn the main rudder. The "main rudder" in terms of changing your human nature is will power and the intellect. The trim tab, though, is that which is so simple that by changing that, your will power and intellect take on dimensions of effectiveness that you would never imagine possible in your current state of deliberately dumbed down reasoning ability. And this is what is being kept hidden from you and actually being used without your awareness to keep it hidden. Hidden in plain sight, so to speak.

Ok, back to the point. The elite have a problem because they don't want to give everyone access to the secrets they know because they are afraid their position and status will be threatened. But the problem is that when you keep someone dumb and at a low vocabulary then they have a reduced capacity to express themselves and thus are more likely to turn to violence to get what they need (in order to move up the ladder of Maslow's hierarchy of needs.) 

So by dumbing people down in order to control them, you create a monster that will most likely turn on you. Read Hegel and Marx. Every revolution will always lead to another one and it will usually be violent. Currently the parasitical elite are planning the revolution to end all revolutions which, trust me, will not be good for any of us. Look up "Year Zero". 

But what if we could, instead have a peaceful revolution to end all revolutions? One that created the conditions to support each person to be their very best! Here is what the elite miss: that if everyone had a truly effective reasoning ability (which clearly the parasitical elite lack), then people would realize what Jesus was saying, that the best way to live is by giving your neighbor as you would give to yourself and loving them as you would like to be loved in return. That is the philosophy of a truly enlightened and rational being!

"Forgive them for they know not what they do." Fortunately there are those of us from many different walks of life and many different positions at elite levels of society that understand this and are working diligently to create the necessary conditions to support REAL LIFE on earth. But the more people who understand what we are doing, the faster and more peacefully we can do this. Understand, if you are reading this: YOU ARE ELITE. You have been brainwashed to believe that you are just average and middle of the road. But if you go visit so-called "third world" countries you will see REAL POVERTY. If you have electricity, running water, enough to eat and internet access, you are ELITE ENOUGH to make a real difference. 

Don't give in to the system and believe this is all there is. But don't fall into the elitist trap of thinking Utopia can be forced on to the world. No Utopia is possible where force exists. It must be NATURAL. And for a better world to come about, we must go to the root of that which creates the world which is HUMAN NATURE, which, I promise, CAN BE CHANGED. There are many of us currently busy proving it. If you want to be one of those, we can show you the way, but we cannot do the work for you. There are tools which will aid you in your process, but they will always point you back to yourself. No guru will be of help because they just want followers. You must seek out those who recognize their EQUALITY with YOU.
