Description:

How does one perceive a "higher" dimension?


Dimensions

  • Dimensions are actually synonymous with Realities. The realities are separated by different relationship with Time.

Descriptions of Dimensions

1D

It is, a moment, an event. Generally represented by a circle. The only information is its position. It signifies the existence of something; its “first” emergence, or manifestation thereof. The point, or tangent of something.

But that brings us to immediately recognise that if there is 1, a something, there has to be something “else”, even if that other is the NOT of the previous. In order for there to be any continuation, any recognition, there has to be at least one other. Basically there cannot be 1 that emerges without their being at least 2—the 1 that emerged and the whatever it emerged from!

2D

Represents a this and a that; an other appears, thus there is an awareness of self because of existence of other.

Now we have length & breadth but no depth

3D

This could be indicative of a relation between two (at least). It introduces the aspect of depth, thus perspective. Also of reproduction—out of the two comes the another one.

4D

4D is represented from our 3D space by the imaginary number. It has a different space/time continuum. It manifests as effects in our space. Often known as the angelic realm, also the imaginary realm.

In relation to 3D, a 4D being would be able to “see” and pass through walls. Just as a 4d mage could “see the future”, similar to “passing through walls”.

A being, or consciousness, fully embodied in a dimension, is very effective within it. One finds many different examples of this. Someone who ignores or denies their 4d consciousness (what the Kabbalists call their neshama), will be incredibly efficient in the 3d. One who embraces, and focuses, only on the elements of his 2d existence – separating the world into recognisable/unrecognisable, useful/useless, good or bad will be effective in the short term, but woeful in the long term.

Quick overview

  • 2d is the empirical
  • 3d is the experience we are having
  • 4d is the imaginary

Nobody will argue today that we live in a 3d reality - if they even understand the concept of a dimension/world/cosmos/reality. But in yesteryear, all representations were essentially 2d (except for statues).

So how does one awken people to the existence of 4d “reality”. Through science? How can science prove the existence of a 4d reality to those who have only experienced, and are still learning to navigate, a 3d one?

Summary

1 -> pt - individuation, separation
2 -> line - relationship between 2 points in space
3 -> depth - able to “fill” a space, which could be described as encompassing the 2 original points, and their relationship, thus producing shapes. It is the place where the points replicate/reproduce, interacting through points connecting with other already existing elements.

4 worlds

The 4 worlds of the Kabbalah, with also the 4 levels of interpretation of the writings, could be interpreted as dimensions, expressed in other terms.

The 4 levels of “worlds” in the multi-world theory.

Divine purpose

If I am unsure that G-d exists, or if I will even exist after this life, then why not attain whatever I am able in this life, however I obtain it, and deal with what comes after, if anything, when it happens?

There is one thing I am very sure of. The “I” that I am will not exist after I die. For that “I” that I am presently does die. The question is whether there is some part of this “I” that I am that will still live on, in some place of consciousness, in some space of self-awareness. What that “self” might be, could be very different from the experience of self I am having at present.

Already I have experienced something of that. For, the “I” that I thought I was when I was a youth is certainly not the “I” that I am presently. In the same way, the “I” that I might be, after my death, might be very, very different from the “I” that I am right now. The question arises whether there is an “I” that I am “always” … or until that “I” that I am always is no longer!

Let us take a far more pragmatic and realistic approach than the “spiritual” or even “tribal”. If there is God, and He has sent me down here and this is what I am, to do whatever I am capable of doing, to the best of my ability, then for what will he be punishing me? Is not my striving to achieve the best I can with what I have been given what I need to be doing?

It seems, even the best of us have our “dark” corners… And that is what we are afraid of. If we become aware of that darkness, then we have allowed it into our lives, but, if we spend our whole lives fighting it, then how can we achieve the best that we can achieve in the limited time we have?

Unless one turns that around, and says that all one’s actual task is, is to fight against the evil that begins in one’s own mind!

Which is essentially what almost all mystics and religions actually say. Anything else is socio-political, because this is actually the most revolutionary act that one can take as an individual within a society. It is the one act of true sovereignty. Paradoxically, by swearing your allegiance and trust in the One that is G-d, an unknown, and perhaps unknowable entity, nameless, faceless, but present everywhere, with all your heart and all your soul, you take the step into true sovereignty. As long as you are not bowing down to another human, but solely to the Divine Source of all Existence — for no one and nothing is not-G-d.
