Are we in a simulation? Numerology simulation theory

What is numerology simulation theory?
In this video we look at the simulation hypothesis and the question of whether we are living in a simulation. There are some surprising answers in an under explored source of knowledge: numerology. And as we dig deeper, we find that our world is governed by numbers.
How do we know if our experiences are real?
It’s an age old philosophical question. The simulation hypothesis is the proposal that all of reality, including the Earth and the rest of the universe, could in fact be an artificial computer program.
Elon Musk thinks it’s not only possible, but that it’s very likely we’re living in a simulation. And his logic goes like this:
First of all, the universe is 13.8 billion years old. But human civilization, as we know it, is only about 10,000 years old. Which is just a tiny fraction of the age of universe.
Secondly 40 years ago, we had video games like pong. Which was basically 2 moving rectangles and a dot. But today, we have immersive photorealistic 3D graphics, with millions of people playing, all at the same time. And it’s only getting better, every year.
Third, if we assume any rate of improvement at all, even a 1% improvement per year, then eventually, we should reach a point where we can’t tell these simulations apart from reality. It might happen 100 years from now. It might happen 1,000 years from now. But either way, it’s almost certain, that on a long enough timeline, we WILL eventually reach that point. Unless something stops us from getting there. Like an extinction event.
Fourth, if we ever did gain the technology to build a simulation, then we’d be able to build many, many simulations.
And because there’s only ONE base reality, the odds that we’re living in one of the millions of possible simulated worlds, is much higher than the odds that we’re living in the REAL world.
Whether or not you agree, Elon Musk isn’t alone here. A lot of smart people believe that the simulation hypothesis is true: from computer scientist Rizwan Virk, to physicist Max Tegmark. We also look at contributions from Erwin Schrödinger and Sylvester James Gates Jr.
But the more we explore these ideas, the more it looks like our entire universe, is governed by numbers. Because the closer we look at things that seem non-mathematical - the more clear it becomes that they too can be understood through numbers. And although this might seem like a new idea, its roots can be traced back to an ancient Greek philosopher and mathematician: Pythagoras.

I loved this video. I personally think that we are living in a simulated reality only because "reality" can be manipulated with practicing manifestation or say with prayer or just blind faith in what you believe to be true.

Interesting video. I have my own hypothesis... everything that the human mind projects is a simulation or model. When we talk of "the simulation" as an all encompassing simulation, this is just another model created by the mind, for something that at every level of comprehension is a simulation or shell representation for something far deeper. We have multiple simulations running simultaneously, for every moment, for every person... the input for the simulation is our senses, the processing is our brains. Consensus reality is a partially shared simulation, possible through sympathetic resonance. Those universal constants are 'something', but their numeric descriptors are another projection for something that we do not fully have the ability to see or comprehend, as our senses are limited (limited ability to penetrate to the core/foundation with mind... but not our being). Because our senses are limited, the input and processing are hindered for our shared model / simulation, so we cannot fully simulate/model or describe what we see. Those numbers are something, but they are a shadow or metaphor for something else that has other dimensional aspect that may be energetic in nature. When we do arrive at a very accurate model for the way things are... it's still a simulation, but it will be so close to the inner shell, for our purposes, it will give us a useable hypothesis that is accurate enough, but still not all encompassing, because maybe we cannot see things that lie beyond that which can be measured or timed... but we can get small glimpses of actions issuing from the unknowable. In short, everything we see and comprehend is a simulation based on a black box model of the core. This comment is a case in point... :D

DMT experiences of mine made it difficult to even seriously consider that we 'aren't' in a simulation of some type. Even perhaps just one level of many of a simulation or similar. Enjoy the ride and remember, it isn't all that serious!

[@lilybond6485]

@Mark T. Larry: I’ve never taken any illegal drugs or abused prescription medication in my entire life. -- recently I stumbled on reading about DMT and watching videos of the experiences of people who have taken DMT and I truly believe that what they are seeing and experiencing are real. I would love to try DMT in a supervised setting which, of course, is not going to happen. Since I’ve never taken any type of hallucinogen, I would be afraid of my reaction and no ability to escape the experience if it got scary for me. On the positive side, I would imagine that it would change my entire perspective of life. The DMT experience totally fascinates me.

Simulation or Reality ? Is what I like to say... Elon Musk sparked this thought for me years ago. It's unlikely we are in base reality. Trying Oculus VR was a game changer for me, it was hard to distinguish simulation from reality. I enjoyed watching this video & delving back into the simulation topic.

[@ModernIntuitionist]

Thanks very much for watching and commenting! If we're living in a simulation, then maybe that's all the more reason to have a sense of play and exploration. It reminds of something comedian Bill Hicks once said: “The world is like a ride in an amusement park, and when you choose to go on it you think it's real because that's how powerful our minds are. The ride goes up and down, around and around, it has thrills and chills, and it's very brightly colored, and it's very loud, and it's fun for a while. Many people have been on the ride a long time, and they begin to wonder, "Hey, is this real, or is this just a ride?" "And we can change it any time we want. It's only a choice. No effort, no work, no job, no savings of money. Just a simple choice, right now, between fear and love. ” All the best to you and yours in 2021

[@ModernIntuitionist]

[@CaliforniaMist]

The simulation hypothesis is interesting and scary. The who/what is running it question is what I find terrifying. If the simulation is not run by ourselves from outside the simulation, that is something I find disturbing to have that much control given up outside the self. History could just be a story. The mandela effect could be proof the past is just a tale.

[@ModernIntuitionist]

That's very true, thank you for sharing your insights on this. I agree with you that it is, in many ways, an unpleasant thing to think about. And your point about various "glitches in the matrix" like the Mandela effect. It also reminds me of how comedian Bill Hicks used to talk about the illusory nature of life being "just a ride." If we're in a simulation, then the only thing we can do is approach it more like a game to be enjoyed, and perhaps take things less seriously. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts on this! Have a great day and take care.

[@CaliforniaMist]

@@ModernIntuitionist Thanks for making the videos, I am still watching them. For some reason that quote bugs me a bit, maybe because I have taken life so seriously for so long. To me the mandela effect and the things people call glitches seem all too intentional, and calculated. Often the synchronicities are humorous, interesting and very personal. The mandela effect seems to target "core" memories like brands, songs etc. It also only targets some people, and everyone seemingly differently. This reminds me of what you said in a previous video about the simulation revealing itself.... If the past can be rewritten, perhaps history is his story... I believe in time it will be revealed. It is interesting that these occurrences are amping up as we become more aware of simulations being technologically feasible.

Hey guys! I've recently discovered your channel here. Pretty good stuff especially the one about the Matrix and the simulation theory. Since I was a kid, I felt different from other people. Like I never couldn't fit in within a group deep down. Something in me felt empty. Much like I how I didn't want to follow societal trends and did things my own way. Almost as if there was something more to life than what I see in this physical world. And wanting to know if Jesus Christ of the Bible was real or not. I've even had some strange experiences when I was a kid and in my teens that were out of the ordinary. I didn't know why I was getting them though. It makes me wonder if I was more prone to things back then since my life was different. I was also prone to having more dreams as well than I do now. Good thing I recorded many of the dreams I've had. I'm in my 20s right now but even then when I look back in my life, I've seen and went through stuff more than I realized. This won't be the last time these things will happen now that I've reached a point where I'm becoming more aware of these. Intriguing content for sure.

[@lotusseed355]

Another great video. First time here I've heard the consideration that a soul must be a part of a simulation and compared to an app, running the show. It is a very ancient idea in fact, much older than the Pythagoras - Vedic knowledge of the Self/Atma. Greeks had many ideas from the ancient India due to an intense exchange in old days - commercial and cultural. The concept of the simulation is also not new - it was present all along in the Vedic world view and is called maya - just it is not a computer simulated but.... God simulated. We exist in the dream of God... which is translated though the vehicle of the mind into mental construct and then matter, and can be manipulated by the mind... I hope to see that science finally will arrive at the idea that there is no any computer 'out there' but it is a Divine Being/Intelligent Energy who is running the show by means of having placed a piece of Himself in the heart of all sentient beings (entanglement). Well, I should stop here ... Love your videos, will be watching all of them. Well presented, good work. Thank you.

[@lotusseed355]

I just wanted to add a few lines to my previous comment to make the picture more complete. As the society evolves it reaches the point in its technological progress when it can simulate reality, as many scientist today postulate. The problem is it is a technological simulation within the God's 'organic' simulation and just as we create games with analogue computers, humans will be able to create a virtual reality with increasing sophistication with quantum computers, resembling the base reality, but it will take humanity to a dead-end of degradation as human species, a kind of technological entropy, because it is a 'self-devouring' process. But is seems like it is unstoppable, and according to Vedic Knowledge this happened over and over again in the cycle of yugas...

This makes me think of gnosticism. Somehow it also brings to mind ex-IMF boss Christine Lagarde's speech on numerology and the importance of the number 7. Then I would say regarding the idea of multiple simulations that if the hypothesis is true, some could be contained one within another like Russian dolls: "Programs hacking programs" as Neo noted, whereas others would be very different and very remote, belonging to their own universe.

[@christer-nylander]

There is another argument why we live in a simulation. The creator of everything (it) must contain the whole creation. There cannot be anything outside of creation (what could it be that does not have to do with the Creator - is there nothing?). The Creator must be infinite in all respects (contrasts, creativity, innovation, memory, intelligence etc). It is from this premise that everything must be a simulation in the "Creator". Life is thus the Creator fragmenting itself into different experiences in different environments. It follows that there are infinitely many universes of infinitely many sizes. All that is needed to start a universe(s) is for two waves (of any frequency) to meet at some angle (they collide) one/or both of which loop and form a shell (actually like an apple monk). Since the combination of waves and shell is constantly re-forming and the shells have a vibration (breathing), a universe is filled with background radiation (from the universe bubble on the one hand and all other bubbles in it on the other. From this the four forces can be derived as well as all the laws of the universe. This is what you do if you have infinite intelligence (the Creator). Something super-simple becomes something super-complex.

I was just starting to buy into the illusion and enjoy the experience, but I think I always knew that our material human bodies, which are connected to the non-material, consciousness, that we really are and use, via these human biological systems to see and feel and experience the show, was never part of the material universe, but I enjoyed the experience and plan to purchase another ticket after my human bot ceases to function.

The simulation theory would also perfectly explain the illogical nature of the creation mythos. An entire universe being created from a point of nothingness sounds an awful lot like a video game realm that spawns in the moment you boot it up.
