Belief in Science vs Magic and the Simulation of Reality
I don't believe in magic but in science and causality. However, let's assume for a moment that our subjective experience of reality is a simulation run by our brain. This simulation can be either pleasant or hellish, depending on the hyper parameters being changed. By altering these parameters, we can gain a new perspective and realize that things we took for granted are changeable. For example, people who have taken DMT report experiencing new visual phenomena.
