The Three Layers of Your Reality Construct

Whether you know it or not you exist within something akin to a super advanced virtual reality.  One where your every thought, belief, and emotion is selecting what appears on the screen you call your reality.  Understanding how your personal reality, and the collective reality you are part of, is generated has profound implications.  And one of the most important of these is the complete liberation from your fears.

Before diving into how your reality is generated, and it’s three layers let’s do a quick review of the true nature of yourself and your reality — what you are and what you are a part of.

The Ultimate Nature of Existence

The ultimate nature of existence is that there is a singular consciousness which presides over a singular, yet multidimensional, field of energy that it can mold into any patterns it wishes by the exercise of its thoughts, intentions, and desires.  And these patterns are everything seen and unseen.  This consciousness has been referred to as universal consciousness, or cosmic consciousness, or source consciousness.  And Source consciousness not only creates patterns of energy but it can also perceive and experience them.

Another way to think about these energy patterns is as information.  Source consciousness can create, manipulate, navigate, and perceive information in the field.  This allows it to create information that represents complete experiential environments or “reality constructs” and then dive in and experience them.  There is only consciousness, information, and the perception of information and this allows for the creation and experience of “realities.”

The world that you think exists outside of you is essentially an illusion — it is a purely perceptual experience of consciousness.  The experiences are REAL, but the props are IMAGINARY.  All the information that represents your reality was imagined into existence and is essentially just imagery that your consciousness is perceiving — very much like a virtual reality.  There isn’t anything out there; it’s just an incredibly convincing perceptual illusion.

The way source consciousness experiences a reality construct is by creating a sub-thread of its consciousness, which has its own focal point of awareness and perception, and put’s that focal point within one of these “reality constructs” and experiences it.  Source consciousness is multi-threaded, and you are one of those threads — pure consciousness, non-physical and formless.  And you have put your focal point of awareness and perception into this space-time reality to have this experience.

How Your Personal and Collective Reality is Generated

The way information is presented to your thread of consciousness is much like how a film projector displays the frames of a film strip.  Every billionth of a second or so, a frame of information representing your reality is presented to and perceived by your consciousness (more about this in The Illusion of Time and Space).  Unlike a film strip which has frames with content that was determined when the movie was produced, the movie that you call your reality contains some information that is pre-created and some that is created on the fly and then dynamically composed into final frames on the fly.

Conceptually, frames of reality are generated as three layers of information; foundation, background, and foreground and these then get combined into one cohesive picture.  The information in each of these layers is produced in different ways and understanding how this works has great relevance to understanding and mastering the creation of your personal reality.  Using the metaphor of a stage play these three layers might be considered; the stage, the setting, and the story.  And make no mistake, your reality is your story, and you are the lead character as well as the director.

Surprisingly, even though it appears that you are a part of a singular collective reality with many players or actors, something a bit different from what you might have imagined is going on behind the scenes.

What’s really going on is that each thread of consciousness (e.g; soul) is experiencing its own separate reality in which they are both the lead actor and director of their own stories.  All the other actors in your story are just other souls playing stand-in roles in support of your story.  You have agreements with many other souls to play parts in your reality — but it’s your story, and they are all walk in cameo appearances.

Those souls playing roles in your story may or may not be engaged in their own version of the earthly reality.  And you may or may not be reciprocating and playing roles in their realities.  But there are tons of souls playing parts in each other’s realities.  Each soul is having its own independent experience in its own separate version of reality.  How the reality of a soul, who might be playing a part in your reality, plays out will likely be different than your own.

The way a collective reality experience is generated is that the beings that share roles across the various individual realities agree to share information that represents some elements of the reality — specificallly, information representing the foundation/stage layer and the background/collective layer.

The process which generates each successive reality frame perceived by your thread of consciousness seamlessly combines this shared information with the information from the foreground layer (information created, and selected, and produced by you) into a seamless whole.  The details of how this works are not entirely certain, but this is how it works in general.

Let’s explore how the information that represents each of the three layers of your reality construct is produced and what degree of creative control you have over each.

The Foundation Layer – The Stage

The first layer of information that is included in the frames of reality that your consciousness is perceiving and experiencing might be appropriately called the foundation layer.  This is the layer of information that represents the planet, and the elementals it’s composed of, and the biosphere.  It includes everything that supports human life and the human experience.  This layer acts as the stage on which the human drama is played out on — both collectively and personally.
