About layers

Today I want to talk about layers.

In my very first post I wrote about how science and spirituality can only together show us the truth. I still stand by that, but sometimes, if we want to see before we can understand, we need to let go of that need to explain everything. It skews our perception and blinds us for what we deem unimportant, but which might be the very clue we need.

Multiverse theorist Caroline Wells writes in the foreword of her anthology Breaking the Limitations of Reality:

"Science has long found proof of multiple planes of reality. The entire multiverse theory is not a new one. Mathematicians, physicists, astronomers, they all know there is matter where it should not be, time runs slower the faster you move, and in black holes space and time are reversed. [...] There is a profound inexplicability whenever we try to understand that beyond what we can see. And yet we know it is there. It is, thus, time we turn away from science and embrace the unexplainable as what it is, and start to acknowledge rather than dissect."

What Wells calls planes, and others call multiverse, parallel dimensions, etc., I like to call layers. We both mean the same thing, but the word "planes" evokes a feeling of disconnect, of  separation, whereas layers are like thin sheets that can be laid atop of each other and, if thin enough, even be seen through.

We cannot understand those layers, and yet many of us have seen and experienced them. In the next posts I'll give some examples.
