Review
First, let us review some concepts. I have identified two types of reality. The first one is called the objective reality (OR). It corresponds to the reality in which we live in and that is shared by all of living and dead things. It encompasses the entire universe, all its rules and unknowns.
The second type of reality is the one associated with a single sentient being (or any chunk of matter? Discussed later) that is inserted inside this objective reality (OR). This other type of reality is called subjective reality (SR). The subjective reality is attached to the objective reality through the being (or entity) that encapsulates it. The subjective reality is capable of creating and changing the objective reality. A subjective reality can be understood as the spiritual core in each of us, the driving force that makes us who we are. It might be understood as your soul. However, subjective realities may find themselves into different states.
Initial Assumption
As claimed in the title, the game reality assumes there is one, and only one objective reality. Making that assumption, however, implies that SRs are conceptually different from the OR. In other words, no matter how much SRs evolve, they will never become as intricate as an OR, otherwise, they would become an OR themselves. With that being said, they are part of OR itself but may relate to OR in two different ways: immersed and ascended. The Game reality theory attempts to give an explanation for the relationship between these two distinct types of realities. The text below was extracted from a previous document I was writing, so the line of thought maybe slightly different from the one I have been following in previous posts. Still, the concept of game reality is well explained.
The Game Reality
When in an ascended state in the OR, SRs are entities that are responsible for controlling how OR works, that is, they ensure that OR works properly and that no paradoxes exist. They are hence very powerful entities when in this state. However, this is a somewhat inert state for SRs, for they must follow strict behavioral rules in order to guarantee the rules of OR are followed and no paradoxes that could harm OR are generated. They do not have freedom (free will) in this state. Their purpose is to take good care of OR so that each of them has the opportunity to an immersed state in the OR and participate in the ultimate experience inside OR, which is described further down. The SR participates in this experience when it is selected to be immersed in OR through a bodily connection.
While attached to a bodily connection, such as a human, a subjective reality is defined as a body-bound reality (BBR). However, before this attachment of the SR to a human being, when the latter is born and inserted into the OR, the SR is made unaware of its existence as SR. Its memories about its potential of objective reality creation, control and modification as an SR are erased. The SR, unaware of its own self and limited by its physical body, is defined as an unaware body-bound reality (UBBR). It may be understood as an unenlightened being or entity. Every SR starts in the state of unaware body-bound reality (UBBR) when coming inside OR through a bodily vessel.
The process of living a human life and trying to figure out its own existence is what is called the path to enlightenment of a subjective reality. For SRs, going through the process of learning about their SR nature inside the OR is what they exist for. It is the ultimate experience for SRs. Moreover, when inside OR, they experiment freewill, which they do not have when in their inert state. The ultimate experience is then finding a solution to the puzzle of reality while improving reality itself using the power of freewill.
Hence, while immersed in the OR, unaware body-bound realities (UBBRs) have two main roles. The first one is to pay for the cost of being selected among inert SRs to be inserted into the objective reality. This payment consists of contributions to the growth of the objective reality. This can be done by contributing to the well-being of other UBBRs currently participating in the OR or by contributing to the reality evolution and expansion by direct or indirect creation and trasformation of ideas and matter. An example of contribution to other UBBRs well-being would be helping other beings in any way possible, by either doing charity, teaching, listening to, giving love and care, etc. An example of contribution to the OR evolution and expansion would be creating any type of art, creating, validating and divulging scientific theories and inventions, building things, etc. Notice the balancing act between knowing the value of what one creates versus the value of what one had to destroy/transform during that creation process. UBBRs should be in constant questioning of the worthiness and cost of their actions compared to inaction.
The second role of UBBRs is to reach a high awareness state. This is the ultimate prize for an UBBR. Consider being immersed in a OR as playing a game. The final objective of the game is to achieve full self and reality awareness. Reaching this state is similar to resolving the puzzle of the game of reality. If awareness is reached, the purpose of the aware human-being in reality and as a subjective reality is understood and well-defined in his mind. In other words, the human being is aware of its two roles and is aware that one of them has been fulfilled: the one of knowing what these two roles are. This is when the UBBR reaches a fully aware state and reaches a state of peace of mind, purposefulness and tolerance. This state is what is called enlightenment. It can be understood as when a human uses its faith to fill in or justify the gaps, questions and problems of their limited mundane existence inside the OR. It can be reached by following most of the current religions. This state of awareness of a sub-reality is what is called an aware body-bound reality (ABBR). If all these abbreviations are making the explanation confusing, perhaps the picture below ill help.
Despite its awareness, the SR cannot exert its power of changing or creating reality because of the limitations of it interface with the OR: the (human?) physical and sentient body. The main reason for this is to make reality stable and livable, that is, to avoid creation of paradoxical events and situations in OR and hence lead to the extinction of OR because of the chaos it would generate on the existences of the unaware bodily-bound realities. The relationship between paradoxes and the extinction of reality will be explained later on.
In summary, a BBR, whether aware or not, helps OR evolve and expand by supporting other BBRs immersed in OR and by having, implementing and disseminating creative ideas. In return, it gets a chance to (re)experience the understanding of its existential purpose as a body-bound reality in a being. These two objectives somewhat justify the preaches of many other religions, such as the 10 Commandments of Christianity.
Once a SR time inside the OR expires, that is, when a physical body expires or dies, whether it is enlightened in any sense by any religion or not, it passes to an enlightened state as it moves out of the OR, becomes fully aware of its nature as an SR and re-enters its inert state again to help control consistency of the OR.
Hence, all SRs in an ascended state in the OR can be considered enlightened. These enlightened SRs are called aware subjective realities (ASRs). ASRs have the full capability of a subjective reality and are aware of their own nature. Additionally, they are not bound by OR rules and the human-body. They know the rules of the game, take care that everyone plays by them or even create new ones to make sure the game is consistent but constantly evolving. And they are inside the OR as well, though not necessarily visible to immersed SRs, and can change and create the reality. But, since they do not have freewill, they cannot create paradoxical situations in reality.
On contrary, by being in the ascended state, but still inside the OR, ASRs sole purpose is to maintain OR working correctly. This is done by having OR be consistent, or without paradox, according to what is understood by the BBRs immersed in the OR. Because of ASRs, the world is not as full of paradoxes (Flying cows, burning water, etc.) as it could be. Moreover, ASRs are responsible for creating new expressions and non-paradoxical explanations for events in the OR as the limits of OR are explored and discovered by BBRs immersed in OR. ASRs are responsible for logically justifying why the world, as presented in the OR, is the way it is.
In summary, there are subjective realities (SR) and one objective reality (OR). When ascended in the OR, SRs support the OR so that it is logically consistent to the immersed SRs. When immersed in the OR, the SRs are responsible for helping ORs evolution by engaging in self-supporting and creative-related activities. They also enjoy their stay by having the ultimate experience: understanding their own existence.
Notice, that as in any game (or amusement park), there is a balance between:
- Those that enforce the rules of the game of creation but cannot create, only justify creation: ascended SRs without freewill that must guarantee a reality that is paradox free;
- Those that experience the game of creation, being able to create and expand reality using the tools that are given to them (body and its mysterious not fully-explored mind): immersed SRs that are physically bounded and unaware of its own nature.
To finish up this very long post, I will raise up two more questions
as homework for me in future posts and for the interested reader, both based on my Christian background:
- Could we trace a similarity between heaven and earth using this theory?
- What about the Holy Trinity?
Next time, I will write a smaller post, showing a second perspective on the assumption of having only one objective reality (OR).
I got lost when IR appeared on the text. I didn't get the difference between it and OR. Nor was clear if the desembodied SR are encompassed by the OR.
ReplyDeleteI think IR=OR... it must have been a typo!
DeleteYes, sorry about that. I used to define objective reality (OR) as immersive reality (IR) in a document from where I extracted part of the text. That is the reason for the acronym problems. Hopefully I have fixed all of them now.
DeleteIn terms of ASRs, they must be part of OR as much as embodied SRs, because OR is all that exists. They are like cells that are part of a body, but in different states and with different functions. Perhaps, they are more like stem cells that grow to be different things depending, but it is still a poor analogy.
I hope you’ll expand your theory on the relationship between SR and OR! I really enjoy these kinds of discussion. And this new post raised a few questions…
ReplyDeleteHow do the inert SRs avoid paradox in the OR? What causes the paradox in the first place? Would it be the BBR (the SR attached to a being?)? Would there be any paradox if there weren’t any SRs, if the only thing that existed was the OR? Or are the ASRs like the laws of physics?
What are the consequences if a SR doesn’t fulfill its role? For example, if the SR, as a UBBR, does evil, destroys, etc? Are ABBR as enlightened as ASR? If so, the difference between them would be that the ABBR have free will – thus, could the ABBR choose not to follow the designed paths? What is the profit in being an ABBR? Is ignorance truly bliss?
Finally, to me (and I don’t know if that was your intention), the post is intricately associated to the concept of reincarnation. As so, my main questions about that subject can also be applied here. How are ASR (SRs that dwell outside OR) created? Who picks which ASR will become BBR, or is it by luck or chance (does the word “aleatory” exist??)? Do the actions of a given BBR influence their next experience in OR? If that’s the case, why? Are there BBR outside earth? Earth’s population is always increasing, with dire consequences to the planet’s ecosystem. IF ASR’s function is to control paradox, then why don’t they stop the said growth? Considering that BBR have free will, if a SR comes to OR by means of birth, that would mean the BBR control when SR enters the OR, right?
A lot of questions, I know… sorry to bother you!
Hum, let me see if I can can condense answers to clusters of questions into answers that makes sense. I will have to split the answer into more than one reply for obvious reasons. I will also here the question previously asked by Boto de Gatas (http://thecoderthinks.blogspot.com/2012/02/soul-of-matter.html).
Delete1) Does SR continue to exist after the end of it's bodily counterpart?
In the case of the Game Reality, yes it does, as an ASR.
2)How do the inert SRs avoid paradox in the OR? What causes the paradox in the first place? Would it be the BBR (the SR attached to a being?)? Would there be any paradox if there weren’t any SRs, if the only thing that existed was the OR? Or are the ASRs like the laws of physics?
Paradoxes are bad as long as it hinders the growth of OR. Growth of reality can be done in two levels:
a) Concrete level: this can happen in many levels from collisions of matter at galactic and subatomic levels, to the creation of human objects, such as chairs, cookies and feces. OK, I am not sure exactly the latter contributes to the growth of reality, but it must in some way.
b) Abstract level: ideas in a human mind that may impact human behavior. It is interesting to notice that ideas in themselves do not affect reality, but their effect does. Hence, whatever are the ideas one has (e.g.: the junk one writes in blogs), it is better if they are expressed and transmitted so that their impact is not limited in the great majority by the behavioral change of the being that had them.
Paradoxes that affect either the growth of reality in the concrete or abstract level are considered bad. For example, if UBBRs behavior is affected by a paradox, say gnomes showing up in your backyard, and that hinders the development of reality, this is bad. However, paradoxes may become acceptable if an explanation is found to them when they are presented to more UBBRs that are capable of digesting them. For example, quantum physics. I still think it is paradoxical, but many people don't because there is an plausible for human UBBRs and hence it becomes non-paradoxical.
3) What are the consequences if a SR doesn’t fulfill its role? For example, if the SR, as a UBBR, does evil, destroys, etc?
SRs that do not fulfill their role are either not being fully productive "cells" from the perspective of the OR, or they can "cancerigenous" cells, leading to a contraction of OR's growth. Happily, we as humans are only capable of affecting one planet, but perhaps other superior races or entities may be capable or bringing more damage to reality itself. Hence, the amount of damage is relative to the amount of influence on has in the reality.
Form the perspective of the OR, It is actually a good strategy to compartmentalize races into planets to avoid potential spread of aberrations in reality growth at least in the concrete level. From the abstract level, we can reach a little further, but we are still limited by the speed of light. So, we cannot send our B-horror movies ideas to every corner of the universe.
Notice that is beneficial for the SRs to promote the growth of OR, because, by doing so, they are able to increase the variety of experiences during their immersion in the OR. It is like having new toys for the amusement park you would go on the weekends.
4) Are ABBR as enlightened as ASR? If so, the difference between them would be that the ABBR have free will – thus, could the ABBR choose not to follow the designed paths? What is the profit in being an ABBR? Is ignorance truly bliss?
DeleteEnlightenment levels depend on the level of focus you have on the ideas of reality. It is like meditating. You cant meditate all the time, because other problems to solve in your life, like feeding your body, surviving, etc. Bodies are high maintenance. So, it is hard to always be in a state of enlightenment.
ABBRs can follow whatever path they choose. As I mentioned in the previous question, the only difference is how much they contribute to the growth of reality. And, as mentioned earlier, such growth is beneficial BBRs in general as well.
5) How are ASR (SRs that dwell outside OR) created?
They are created as OR requires more workers to control reality. It is like requiring more servers to run a huge MMORPG as new levels are added.
6) Who picks which ASR will become BBR, or is it by luck or chance (does the word “aleatory” exist??)? Do the actions of a given BBR influence their next experience in OR? If that’s the case, why?
I could come up with many explanations for these and any would be as imaginative. I have come up with a strategy for when there are multiple ORs, but not for this case yet. My perspective for this case is that you already paid for your ticket to go inside OR by working to its maintenance outside. Either that or you will pay when the show is over. So, it does not matter what you do in reality, your actions may simply either enhance or ruin the show that is going on. Therefore, there is no priority in the queue, it is just a single very long queue to get in.
7) Are there BBRs outside earth?
As much as there are planets that enable sensory beings to live in them. So, I do not know for sure, but my guess is yes. There are scientists who do not agree with me, though.
8) Earth’s population is always increasing, with dire consequences to the planet’s ecosystem. IF ASR’s function is to control paradox, then why don’t they stop the said growth?
Well, they must do that without generating paradoxes to the BBRs that inhabit earth. And if the situation gets so drastic that we need to give "game over" for all earthly SRs, then so be it, but they must do that in a way that does not harm the rest of the ORs. Perhaps this will happen soon, they are just waiting for the right time such as preparing humanity for an UFO invasion that happen every 5,125 years as in the Mayan calendar or enough seismic activity to burst a coupel of super volcanoes around the globe or even a meteor come nearby our planet.
9) Considering that BBR have free will, if a SR comes to OR by means of birth, that would mean the BBR control when SR enters the OR, right?
BBRs define the period of existence of an SR inside OR. So, if you are born into a fetus that is about to be aborted, too bad. It is like getting a ticket to a Broadway show from where you can only see and hear the person in front of you. But that is not all that bad, since in the process of dying all SRs reach enlightenment again regardless of the period of existence inside OR. So, even if an SSR does not get to become an ABBR, it still get the final and most experience of realizing its own nature as an SR. All SRs get that prize in the end. The question is really how they get the prize...the path that leads them to the prize. That, I believe, is random.
