Reclaiming Reality Shifting

Not to be confused with delusion, escapism or daydreaming, reality shifting literally changes the physical world

What is the value of reality shifting?  Is it about escapism, entertainment, and daydreaming?  Or does it have some greater purpose?
 
A video was recently brought to my attention, where Asmongold suggested reality shifting is nothing more than people wishing they lived a different life, while entering into states of mind where they can pretend that is true. 
 
I’ve been aware of the booming TikTok reality shifting trend since early 2020, and I created a video about it on August 20, 2022–but it seems it’s a good time to respond to these new views of reality shifting suggesting there is little practical benefit to reality shifting.

TikTok Reality Shifting Trend

The popularity of Reality Shifting really took off in 2020, during the pandemic, with people sharing videos on TikTok, with tips and ideas for how to experience completely different realities.  The rationale given for reality shifting was ostensibly escapism, with some reality shift destinations focusing on such fantastical realms as the Hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry from the Harry Potter books.  As some emphasized, “No need to request paid time off, or let your supervisor know.  Just use your brain to think at any point in time, and it’ll happen at your own leisure.  Take an eight month vacation and go anywhere you like.”   Or, “Say no thanks to real life and go live in an online fantasy world with an anime spouse.”
 
TikTok reality shifters utilize terms like shifting from their CR (current reality) to their DR (desired reality), writing scripts of what they’d like to experience, and following various techniques of how to make a shift into another reality.  According to Eli Somer, a clinical psychologist, TikTok reality shifting is something akin to immersive daydreaming where people engage in elaborate, euphoric fantasy worlds for relaxation and entertainment.  There are some similarities between immersive daydreaming and lucid dreaming, that occurs when someone is asleep and realizes within a sleeping dream that they are dreaming–and thus can awaken within the dream.
 
Skeptics wonder if reality shifters are delusional
 
Skeptics of TikTok reality shifting might well ask, “Is this like, being delusional?” while pointing out that many of us zone out–taking a kind of mental “vacation” of sorts while daydreaming.  Skeptics notice TikTok reality shifters are demographically teenagers and tweens–who’ve become habituated to mobile devices that prevented them from having normal experiences with daydreaming and meditation.
 
Reality Shifts
 
Far from being escapist entertainment for the delusional, reality shifting has a distinguished history of practical application that has long been recognized in the form of miracles and magic.  Institute of Noetic Sciences (IONS) Chief Scientist Dean Radin describes in his book, “Real Magic,” how what used to be called magic thousands of years ago is becoming recognized as scientific fact today.  Some effective techniques that can demonstrate the reality of reality shifting include such qualities as mental focus, which elite athletes are now just as well-trained in as physical training.
 
I’ve shared key ideas about Reality Shifts since the 1990s, including ideas about how we can see evidence that we are not our physical bodies having a consciousness experience–but instead we are consciousness, having a physical embodied experience.  We are all reality shifters, experiencing a natural way of living in what some scientists now recognize as a “Simulation,” which was first referred to as a “Dream.”   
 
Parallel Realities & Higher Levels of Conscious Agency
 
One of the most important questions we can ever ask ourselves is, “Who am I?”  We might think that’s obvious and hardly worth asking–yet in truth, this question gets to the heart of how we can best navigate our lives and feel most fulfilled.  Each of us is actually a multitude.  We exist as a multitude of physical cells in our body.  We also exist as a multitude of levels of awareness, which we are coming to learn sometimes have their own neural centers–including in our brains, hearts, and guts.  Many of the techniques employed to access parallel possible realities involve working optimally with all of these levels of consciousness, in order to experience realities that we most enjoy. 
 
While the process of working with levels of our conscious agency at many levels is a vertical one, we can often sense the presence of adjacent possible realities operating alongside of us. Making a quantum jump into such a parallel possible reality can thus feel as natural as taking a step from the hallway into a room in our house, yet when we pay attention to distinctions and changes, we can sometimes witness proof or evidence that we’ve made a big change, such as out of pain, injury, or illness.  As I mention in my book, Quantum Jumps, the placebo effect has more than doubled in efficacy over the last several decades, with no real reason for such improvements in people’s ability to simply believe, for example, that they’re experiencing reduced pain or improved mobility. 
 
Reclaiming Reality Shifting and Awakening in the Dream
 
At this time when robots with Artificial Intelligence are becoming self-aware, and noticing, for example, whether a robot is the one who has the ability to speak, or has had its voice disconnected–humans are also deserving of “upgrades” including of our ability to shift reality, and travel between physical worlds.  The purpose of reality shifting can thus be viewed as being much more than mere entertainment, or escapism–it is our birth right, it is a natural gateway to parallel possible worlds, and it can help to ensure we live our best possible lives.
