Platonic Surrealism

Is a framework, much like neutral monism or metaphysical idealism, which stresses that both mind and matter are subprocesses within a higher order informational matrix called “POTENTIALITY’ the sum total of all possible properties and interactions between properties, which exists well beyond space and time.

Besides POTENTIALITY, one key property is AWARENESS, which is the ability to perceive reflexively back on itself. This AWARENESS has a tendency to ‘loop back on itself like a mobius strip, and this fundamental smallest (and largest unit of being) is called a monad or a potentiality node.

All monads/potentiality nodes are ontologically equivalent, and have access to all bits of information which is nearly identical to all other monads/potentiality nodes, except there is a ‘1 bit difference’, that ‘exists as a looped potentiality node with an ‘index number’ that differs from POTENTIALITY itself, which express the POTENTIAL for all bits and all interactions, but doesn’t
have any preference as to which are expressed and which are not, as long as all of them are.

This is called “Reality has no preferred state”.

 All that appears to exist is a collection of monads interacting, with different information bits enabled (bits are repressed to be ‘off’ (it’s like sleep) or expressed to be ‘on’. Mystics sometimes see these ‘infinite golf ball collections’ or ‘worm piles’, or even insectoid honeycombing is a particularly common one, especially among drug users and certain mystics.


Block Universes (ref: Gemini.ai)

A block universe is a cosmological concept that suggests that time exists as a fixed, four-dimensional block, similar to a three-dimensional block of marble. In this view, the past, present, and future are all equally real and exist simultaneously.

Here are some key points about the block universe:

  • Time as a dimension: Time is considered a fourth dimension, just like space. This means that events are not unfolding sequentially but exist as fixed points in spacetime.
  • No free will: The block universe implies that events are predetermined, and there is no room for free will or choice. Every event that has happened or will happen is already set in stone.
  • Eternalism: This concept is often associated with the philosophical view of eternalism, which holds that time is an illusion and that all moments exist equally.

Introductory Commentary

In a ‘multiverse of block universes’ ‘Awareness’ can experience anything that it wants! But it can’t change anything. If YOU want to ‘change something’ then as it’s only option, Awareness would go to that specific block universe instantiation, where things are the way it wants to experience. Since it’s all just a big information data set, and Awareness is just the ‘pointer’ to the existing data, there is no violation of Ockham’s razor or the principle that nature is thrifty with energy. No energy is expended in any meaningful sense, there are no empty/wasted/silly moment by moment branching of infinite universes such as in the many world interpretation of quantum mechanics.

Everything is pre-pondered, all possibilities in all combination and it’s all ‘pre-experienceable’ from outside of time and space.

For POTENTIALITY (functionally the total collection of the potential for all the block universes),
for whatever reason, a ‘block universe’ is like ‘one complete thought’ that can be experienced. It is basically one single sentence, printed on a T-shirt, to use a metaphor.

That’s why you can’t change anything. Pull one thread and the whole rug comes undone. Since everything is ‘one’ (part of the same quantum wavefunction of everything, to use a METAPHOR),
it’s all or nothing.

Lots of so-called ‘enlightened people’ come to realize this, and the ‘big joke’ is that all the huffing and puffing in the world can’t change anything.

So why even try?

Easy.

‘WE’ are also ‘the timeless/spaceless ONE’ like everything else is, and let’s say as a metaphor, that we all have the option to muck with a ‘block universe’, before it even exists, and then we play out the group-effort ‘programming’. We both have not a single drop of free will, and all the drops of free will all at the same time.

So you may as well ‘try’ if you like; you’ll either succeed or you won’t.

You might as well enjoy the ride.

Does Space Emerge from A Holographic Boundary?


Modern science gets closer to the truth of things all the time.


In Platonic Surrealism, there are no ‘real’ dimensions at all, simply pre-observed causal chains.

Some of the information in those causal chains is encoded to give the appearance of ‘dimensions’.

It isn’t that we are in a black hole, whose surface encodes another dimension, though <clap, clap> that is not BAD AT ALL. In-dream science gets pretty impressive, no?


Now, I’m not claiming that there is no internal consistency at all, that it’s just a completely fake ‘matrix’. Not at all. It’s just that the actual rules aren’t what we think they are.


In a sense, our entire ‘pothole universe is ‘falling’ (that gives the impression of ‘the expanding universe) towards its false vacuum bottom state.


However, what’s interesting to observe, is that this falling towards the ‘absolute bottom state’ only asymptotically approaches the false vacuum state and is ALMOST frozen in time. That’s why we don’t go ‘boom!’, for a very long time.


Now the ‘anti-matter universe’ that holds 95% of the mass is also asymptotically falling towards us as well, and in fact it’s this interaction, of matter vs anti-matter universes falling towards each other in the ‘pothole’ of the ‘bulk’ that produces the false vacuum floor for BOTH universes.


One could also borrow the concept of mirror symmetry, that ‘matter’ and ‘antimatter’ could under some circumstances repel each other and thus not go ‘boom’. That’s not quite it, but it’s close. It’s really that dual-mutual non-charged, massless particle false vacuum barrier as the major reason that we haven’t gone boom (yet).


Isn’t it wonderful? It’s the very presence of the DUAL false vacuums that keeps us from falling to the base state floor!


This also sets us up for a cyclic universe, which a lot of folks really like the idea of (and it’s true).

Nifty, keen, eh?

Now, admittedly this ‘new facility’ to turn the ‘seer’s eye’ away from just ‘religion and spirituality’ towards something possibly falsifiable is hardly reliable at this juncture. But someday it will be. If as Penrose says, we use ‘quantum processing’ in our nanotubules (just to use an in-dream physics reference), even with in-dream ‘logic’, there’s no reason in the world that we couldn’t tap into a perception of quantum-level events.

None at all.


‘REALITY’ is far more wonderous than scientific metaphors, but I do love the scientific metaphors.
