From what I understand from the spellers that I've met or parents and teachers I've talked to, visiting this dimension or this place at night is a great source of a lot of the non-speakers' knowledge about art and culture and history. And I asked some of the parents if going there has to do with the ability to see the future as well.

And the answer I received about, you know, this gift of prophecy kind of varied.

In England, Asher says he visits a place called the realms to access information about any topic. And he talked about time when his former teacher, Jess, asked him about reincarnation.

I hopped on Zoom with Dr. Powell to explore whether there's a scientific framework for understanding how so many non-speakers seem to be able to access information and even places that most of us can't. And how is it that many of them describe the place they're going to as feeling more real or even more expansive than here? And brace yourself, because Dr. Powell brings up simulation theory.

This is a hypothesis that's been gaining steam as a way to explain our reality. At its core, the theory suggests that our reality was created by someone or something else. The first time I heard this, I really recoiled. I hated it, in fact. But this conversation with Diane gave me a little pause and a little peace. Because it truly could explain everything.

The pillar of this idea is that base reality is somewhere else. There's somewhere more real.

Before anyone tunes out, just bear with Diane here. Because even though simulation sounds cold and technological and far from what it means to be human, this concept might actually be a scientific, unifying way to actually describe a spiritual reality.

If it's a simulation, it feels like there wouldn't be a spiritual element to it, at least to me. But so many of these people who are not as materially in their body and they're able to experience more of reality, they talk about angels and demons and seeing spirits and that type of thing, which makes the simulation seem to have a spiritual element to it. Or I don't know.

Like maybe how John Paul manifested his own heaven complete with his cabin from earth on an ocean filled with manatees where he can swim every day.

After this talk with Diane, it occurred to me that one can look at the simulation theory similar to how one looks at religion. The two might not be at odds. In fact, they may explain each other. I was pondering this while watching my son play our old-school Nintendo console.
