Asymptotic experiences
More actions
Asymptotic experiences are experiences that change drastically from one moment to the next. There can be a reality change or a drastic change in the reality. There can be a change in body type such as from a human to a dinosaur that would appear to the conscious participant as instantaneous. There is also a drastic change in enviroment like from the tropics to the Arctic. A reality change can be from, for instance, a coherent reality to an incoherent reality.
There can be Asymptotic experiences with no preknowledge, partial preknowledge or preknowledge. With preknowledge you have some idea that there will be a change, when it will occur, why it is going to occur, and a pretty good ideas what that change will be. Partial preknowledge of an asymptotic experience is that you know some of this knowledge ahead of time, but not all of it. An [asymptotic experience]] without preknowledge is like you reading this sentence and the next thing that you know many of the things that you though you understood are no longer true. For example you could suddenly experience having an alien body on an alien planet in a different universe with a different set of physical laws where every thing is different except for your memories of what you were. There can after this asymptotic experience be no postknowledge, partial postknowledge, postknowledge. Postknowledge gives information, understanding, or knowledge about why this experience happens after the fact. Partial postknowledge gives information over a longer period of time and is never complete enough. with no postknowledge there is never an understanding of why this asymptotic experience happened. Total postknowledge of an asymptotic experience usually requires mental powers way beyond our human abilities to understand all of the facts because can be so complicated. Asymptotic experiences can be imagined for coriginals in the form of itobodies and itocomponents but if the actually physapaths can be created to produce these awarepaths is a different story. Science through experimentation, extrapolation, and rational thought wil have to determine these things in the future.
