I urge everyone to watch videos from Donald Hoffman, Roger Penrose and others about consciousness. Both talk of consciousness as non-local, as a dimension.
I've done a great deal of research/experimentation in consciousness and its nonlocal elements. I've written the 74-page booklet
There Are No Coincidences - there is synchronism, interconnectedness, nonlocality, retrocausality, subconscious telepathy, design-and-alignment, signs from GOD, and consequences.
Hoffman goes further, which is my view as well, that consciousness is fundamental and space/time/matter are essentially the user-interface surrounding consciousness.
Spacetime with
hyperspace and
hypertime, energy-matter, and information.
My own interest in the subject started years ago by first be confused with the paradox of the double-slit experiment (which has now been made further wacky by the delayed choice quantum experiment).
I need to google:
delayed choice quantum experiment.
It is now almost obvious that we have our own unique copy of reality.
I disagree. What's the dictionary definition of
reality? It has to be a shared experience of the facts. Just because you and I have differing views on something, doesn't mean that we both are perceiving reality. There are not two true realities going on - there is a reality and a false narrative.
In fact, we have known that for over 100 years since Einstein's SR; time slows down for every part of 'our' reality as we accelerate or get closer to heavier objects.
So every time I get near my car, time slows down by how much? I AM very familiar with
time dilation, but there is a point where it is negligible.
Since reality is personal, then it cannot be fundamental.
Wrong. Reality by definition is not personal. Just because someone's reality is that the Earth is 6,000-years-old doesn't make it so. There are
fundamental laws of Nature/physics that establish reality - a shared experience.
Anyway, I love thinking about this.
Me, too. Establishing a 'shared reality' is very important! Hasn't that always been thee goal of religion & science?
Please check out my threads on this forum and reply to them, even if you don't think they're reality.
