Introduction
The best way to wake up in your dreams
is to never fall asleep at all.
Some Joker
This is perhaps one of the most difficult books that I have had to write thus far. This is because the subtleties, the nuance, and the quantities of each aspect of the formula that will be presented in this course book, are incredibly delicate and most difficult to put into words.
This course book is meant to capture your attention, and to take that attention on deep dives into another world of existence: a Second World . This Second World is here-now, it is all around you. It is a fabulous place that should be accessible to all of us, but that will barely be glimpsed by most through half-forgotten dreams, sometimes vivid fantasy, drug induced delusion, and even through the mythical stories and fictional worlds that we consume through film and literature.
But this book is not fiction; it is a practical course that is meant to be a portal to that Second World. It is in some ways a kind of recipe book, in that it offers certain ingredients that must be utilized and combined in order to open a gate and make the Second World accessible. This course book will show you how to break away from the three-dimensional prison referred to as consensual reality, and open up an oddly angled gate that leads to a very real, sometimes scary, and yet very practical new set of dimensions of awareness and existence, that are simply beyond description.
I have tried very hard to make sure that this book is accessible to anyone, even those who may not have read any of my other books. However, this is a true course book, and due to the fact that this is a very complex subject, I would recommend that you make sure that you read slowly and that you re-read those sections that may be a bit more complicated to understand. I also feel that you will be far more prepared for some of the more advanced concepts described in this course book if you have previous experience with the theories of out of body travel and lucid dreaming. I would say that even advanced practitioners may find this a complex read at times, but I think that the extra effort will be worth it because, to my knowledge at least, at the time of me writing this book, there is information here that you will not find anywhere else!
At the end of the course book you will find a glossary, and I recommend that you use it as I will be introducing certain ideas and terms that may not be familiar to you, or that may have slightly different meanings within the context of this work.
This is a challenging course, and it will test you mentally. It will make you question consensual reality and in the process of practicing the techniques described here, it is my hope that you will have some truly powerful inner experiences. These experiences can be scary at times but if you can push yourself past this fear, by staying focused on where you want to go, you will eventually find a place beyond your greatest imaginings, and a freedom that is worth all effort.
Do we live in a virtual reality simulation?
What an intriguing thought. How seemingly novel and mind bending.
This idea of life being a virtual simulation has gone from being a theme for sci-fi novels to being a serious topic in the mainstream world, and a topic that is discussed by some very influential scientists, intellectuals, and engineers.
As a modern person, I may say that it is indeed an amazing thing to contemplate. Mine, as is yours I would imagine, is a world of modern technology and scientific wonder. I live in a world where artificial intelligence is becoming more and more complex every day. A world full of impossibly realistic computer games played in virtual reality worlds that one day soon will feel as real as anything physical could be.
I understand this notion of living in a simulation through those eyes, through the beliefs and the language of this time. This virtual world theory is so very real and evocative to me because I am a modern being. I can look at such a theory, and can clearly contemplate what this concept tells me. I can clearly imagine in a truthful and factual way that since sentience, according to the beliefs of my modern mind, tends to move towards technological development, artificial intelligence, and cybernetic automation, that it is then quite possible that if a species or singular intelligence has been around much longer than humanity, it is quite possible then that we humans and our entire universe, may indeed be an artificial virtual construct created by a superior power. My modern mind can contemplate with strong precision, the idea that we may be the virtual creation of another intelligence of vast proportions; that we are quite possibly part of a constructed virtual world that resides inside a giant machine brain.
But is this a new and unique idea? Have others in the past, the distant past perhaps, spoken of similar things using different terms?
Well, yes they have, and I feel that as we grow more intricate and aware as a species, many of us have begun to look at the nature of our own existence through a broader, wiser lens, that is starting to connect some of the dots. Through that lens, an increasing number of us have begun to truly see that the possible explanations for who we are and why we are here, are always answered using standard terms and definitions that are part of the social construct of the times we live in. In this modern time the most powerful social construct revolves around rationality and science, and therefore our answer to these fundamental questions of who we are and where we came from , are contained within a social construct that uses terms and concepts like virtual worlds and super machine intelligence.
But one could use another lens, a religious lens, made up of a slightly different social construct, and one could express a very similar concept by stating that we humans and this entire world are god(s) creation and that all of it is contained within his/her mind.
And if I were to use an even older social construct, and a lens that I refer to as Inner Alchemy, I could say that no matter who our real creator may have been, we are now under the control of a great and unfriendly power. I could say using the Alchemical lens that we are now within a kind of virtual matrix created by a machine like intelligence, a predatory force, a demiurge, that has bound us in a cube, a virtual simulation of sorts, that we have accepted as being the real world, the rational world.
But whatever terms or lenses we use, whether we are talking about a virtual matrix, or a divine world created in gods mind, it seems that we humans have always suspected, and are now beginning to prove through scientific study, that we seem to be part of a multilayered existence that appears to follow a tremendously complex underlying order. And further, that no matter what world view we believe in, there have at all times been some at the outer edge of perception that have always pointed out that there is more to reality than just the physical. These oracles and seers have always stated that this world is not just hard objects but that it is a multidimensional, perceiver-based reality, and that it is unified by causal relations that far exceed anything that could be possible by just one physical dimension.
