This world we live in is a hologram. The first quantum physicists realised this almost a century ago, and in the early 80s, the USA’s CIA and Dept of Defence confirmed this in their report on the Munroe Institute’s Gateway Project.
Of course, the yogis, sages, shamans and Tibetan Lamas around the world knew this long before then, and had called the world “an illusion”. Similarly, the Gnostics had written about this world as an artificial copy of something real.
A better way perhaps to describe this world we live in would be “a game show”. Someone or Something created this world, this unimaginably vast hologram, and no one is clear why they did this. Was it an experiment of the mind?
Everyone who lives inside this hologram has their own “life story”. This “life story” is its own hologram within the larger hologram, and we now know this as it has been discovered that the brain and eyes are also holographic, as is our body. A personal favourite source for understanding this hologram is Michael Talbot’s classic work The Holographic Universe.
As we go through our life (our life story that may or may not have been pre-planned and pre-agreed before we commenced our holographic life this time around) we will all have had specific purposes for being here (this has been called ‘soul development’), but the ultimate purpose is to complete the game show and exit. Anyone who has played a computer game will know how this works – we rise up through the levels of the game until we reach the end point, as the ‘victor’.
Along the way, we will encounter various hurdles in our quest to reach the end of the game, or in spiritual terms, to develop our soul/consciousness/gnosis which allows us to jump through the ‘levels’ (or frequencies). These hurdles that are put in our way are “disruptors” or (in a lesser form), “distractors”.
As part of the game, it is up to us (we are in charge of our own hologram after all, even if we don’t realise it) to decide whether a hurdle placed in our way is a “disruption” or a “distraction”. This is because disruptions and distractions have to be deal with in different ways.
Distractors are the easiest to deal with, as they can simply be stepped around as we realise they are simply there to take our minds off of our true purpose and to waste our time, but disruptors are more dangerous, as they can actually divert us from our life path and ruin our progress in the short life we have before the game show expires (“death”).
In her wonderful book Operators and Things, Barbara O’Brien described these disruptors as “operators”. These “operators” are essentially competing with us for our own space, our success, our peace of mind, and have been inserted into our hologram (our life story) to test our resolve. They must be eliminated entirely or they will cause certain failure of progress in this life’s game show.
How we do this is part of our own puzzle to be solved. Elimination allows progress. A good example would be a partner who we marry who turns out to be a something different from what we had believed, and undermines our progress through their actions, and needs to be eliminated through often drastic measures such as court action. Or it might be a boss at work, or our parental home we grow up in, or a sibling, or a disruptive neighbour. Whatever, we must release them and let them go from our life in whatever way is possible. To not do so will damage us rather than them.
But in the end, we must keep going, as every piece of progress, every bit of soul development, takes us closer to the end of the game and the exit from the game. There is only so much time before the game show expires.
Who created the game show, and where the projector for the game show is located, is a question for another day. Our only focus for now should be to deal with distractors and disruptors. Then we can keep on progressing.
