What even is this reality?

[Daniel123]

Funny I just welcomed back myself to shitty reality from a nap. Yes, I literally said that to myself. The worst thing about reality is it is so damn rigid, with zero hope of changing (for better). Reality feels like hell? Too bad.

It really does. A nightmare.

You have no idea how many videos I have seen and articles I've read on this topic but none off them completely explain the idea how it all started. All of them are just speculations. The thing I want to know is what was the beginning of it all. Even if this universe is part of something much bigger and that there are many universes, where that did come from? Was it always there? I guess we will never find out.

It all started in the big bang. And from the big bang came from God, It all came from source, the unmanifest, wu chi, unified field, the eternal now, pure consciousness. Now source always has been and always will be, but the manifest creation is believed to go in cycles. Where the creation is created in the big bang then evolves through billions of years then eventually goes back to source. Then it starts all over again. And since we can measure time it must exist. It's said that the physical plane of existence is the only plane we use our free will. This is the place where destiny is created and the afterlife is the place where we reap what we sow. Where our thoughts and emotions create reality instantly.

Where our thoughts and emotions create reality instantly.

Sounds exactly like virtual reality.

Even though this universe may be digital where did the universe before this one come from and so on. It's mind blowing to us. I guess we are simply too stupid to understand it all.

I spend most of my time thinking about this... depersonalization/derealization for the last 4 years has only made this existential dread even worse. This life just feels like a bad simulation and I just want it to be game over (at least for this life... I believe in an afterlife or at least hoping there is one unless of course it's as bad or worse than this, than I'd rather have non-existence).

Maybe there is no such thing as nothing. The reality could be an endless cycle of repeating itself.

My worse nightmare. Nothing could be worse than this being a never-ending cycle that goes on for eternity/infinity.

It really is a scary theory.

Has it ever struck anyone as odd that we're able to communicate our thoughts with words in the first place?
I think the internet has made this even weirder. I usually take it for granted.

I can be over here in my corner of the world and say: "There is a pink fuzzy elephant giggling inside your refrigerator."

Boom. That's not even a real thing. Yet somehow many of you are already imagining it.

This reality is hell. Christians always threaten with their hell all the time but it doesn't scare me. Nothing can be worse than existing on Earth doing mind numbing jobs. Sometimes I feel my brain cells commiting suicide.

Philip K. Dick was a fascinating individual. In a fucked up way. I'm a huge fan though, because I found out he was the Sci-Fi author of SEVERAL awesome Sci-Fi movies. Minority Report. Blade Runner. Total Recall. A Scanner Darkly. The Adjustment Bureau. Even that TV Show on Amazon, The Man in the High Castle.

I recommend anybody that has watched these movies and enjoyed them to go on YouTube and watch a documentary about Philip K. Dick. He was more than a genius, he was practically a prophet of science. It's rather unfortunate that amazing things often come from people with fucked up lives. I can actually identify with how he went through a period of time where he felt like God was speaking to him and revealing to him alternate realities. I suffered from severe mania that lead to extreme sleep deprivation and strange thoughts. He probably had something closer to schizophrenia, but disorders of the brain often share similar symptoms.
