The problems with the way people think of simulation theory is they're thinking that we're implying that there's some computer that's generating a simulation. And I don't think it's necessarily anything like that. I think that we live in an informational field. I pressed Dr. Diane a little further.

Well, there are all kinds of philosophical questions that come out of all of this. One of the things that I've thought about is whether or not we can actually, through our imagination, manifest things.

That's a God-like property. I mean, that may be how God created the universe was through God consciousness. And God consciousness in all of its complexity is going to have angels and demons and fairies and all kinds of things. Just think about how many people, how many cultures have not only reported seeing those things, but how many have truly believed in them.

And it's like, what even creates these things? Well, if it's all part of the creation, if it's all really just consciousness and thought forms that we kind of can co-create.

And another thing is that there's something called change blindness, which is sort of the opposite of that, which is that people don't see what they don't expect to see. Part of how they've tested that, they'll have you go to a tiny little motel and you go to the front desk and nobody else is there.

And there's this person behind the counter that says, oh yeah, you know, we've got a room and then goes underneath the counter to get like a key or whatever. And they've swapped out the person with a whole other person that doesn't look at all like the person who went underneath the counter.

But the person who is there to check into the room doesn't even blink an eye because they're just assuming it's the same person. So it's like you're not going to incorporate something into your simulation of reality if it doesn't make sense to you.
