Reality is an Illusion - Here is how to control it | EP 49

You’re Not in a Simulation — You’re Running One

What if simulation theory is real—but not because we’re living inside a computer?

In this episode, we explore a radically different idea: reality is a simulation happening inside your own mind.

Drawing on insights from remote viewer Ingo Swann, cognitive neuroscientist Donald Hoffman, physicist John Archibald Wheeler, and modern neuroscience, we break down how your brain takes raw sensory data from the external world and renders an internal model of reality—a survival-optimized interface rather than reality as it truly is.

We explore how the brain acts as a prediction engine, why perception is a “controlled hallucination,” and how the Reticular Activating System (RAS) secretly decides what you notice, what feels important, and what becomes your lived experience. This helps explain why two people can inhabit the same world yet experience completely different realities—and why beliefs, attention, and identity shape what feels “real.”

Rather than claiming the world is fake, this episode reframes reality as a participatory experience: the external world exists, but your nervous system determines how it appears, what it means, and which version of it you live in.

We close with practical, grounded tools you can use to consciously upgrade your internal simulation—by training attention, regulating your nervous system, setting intention, and curating what you allow into your awareness.

Key themes:

• Reality as a user interface, not a literal representation

• Why evolution favors survival over truth

• How attention shapes perception and experience

• Where free will actually lives

• How to improve the “render quality” of your life

  BONUS: How to Remote View like Ingo Swann and Robert Monroe

You’re not trapped in a simulation.
You’re participating in one.
