I think imagination doesn't just happen. All thoughts, no matter how scifi or crazy must come from somewhere (i.e., already exist). Make me appreciate movies and books on a whole new level
A quote from Anita, who had a NdE
'The way I view life now, nothing exists in this world until we bring it into our consciousness/awareness. Nothing exists until we express it, either as an individual or as a collective. The more awareness we draw to something, the more real it becomes in the physical. As a collective, we are probably inadvertently creating our physical reality by default, unknowingly. But as individuals, we always have the choice to create differently than what is being created “out there”.
The problems we have right now, including a lot of the suffering we feel, is because we are not aware of this. I don’t have any universal answers as to why we are not made aware of this from birth. But
it’s also quite likely that if everyone was made aware of this all at once, there would be chaos, because the world is not geared up to deal with everyone “waking up from the illusion”. In my view, the way we look at physical reality as a collective, has been “back to front” right from the start.
Everything is happening at a pace which is perfect for our fragile collective to handle. The way our world is right now, it is not geared up to deal with the REAL TRUTH. The collective does not yet seem fully ready to handle it. Maybe it never will be. Maybe while we are here, we are meant to deal with things at this level.
However, to me, it certainly feels like this ability (to live beyond the illusion) is something that is attainable by the individual, should they choose to do so.
