So there’s this post going around, you might have seen it, and the basis of it is that the OP is proposing an experiment that will either disprove shifting as they suspect or prove it and surprise them.

The experiment is to shift to a reality where a math problem is solved or proved or whatever, and to bring back the knowledge of that back here as proof. Who solved it, concepts behind it, how it works, etc.

I totally understand their disbelief but in general, and this is not even about them specifically, but I do think it’s kinda crappy to make someone prove a belief in order to respect it. Nobody has proposed we do something similar with a religion in order for religious people to “prove it.” And that’s just about being respectful about expressing disbelief, of course nobody has to believe for any reason.

Besides all that, as of now I don’t think it’s a bad idea and I do think we should try it.

It doesn’t have to be one of those problems specifically. I think we could also do cure for cancer, how the universe started, cure for common cold, etc. Just something we don’t know now.

Add it as a Hogwarts class maybe, script your DR self is interested in and good at math/science so you won’t be bored or too confused, script you know or are the person who solves it, etc.

I’ve scripted it into my DR, but I haven’t shifted for the first time yet.

Edit: I’m going with NP versus P problem! It’s suspected to be false, but hasn’t been proven

Edit to the edit: I am gay. I am bad at math. /lh I am putting the NP versus P problem on the back burner and going for something else for now bc I just cannot comprehend lmao. For now it’s basically learning Spanish, (because I’m barely getting a B in my class) and if I come back fluent or greatly improved with a real understanding of the language (not words made up in my mind or anything) then that sounds like a decent start.

Anybody who’s shifted already and has it down so they could test it out quicker, or anyone who just feels like adding it to their DR, please do so!

I would very much like to see how it turns out and it would benefit the entire community.

I plan to use this to really solidify whether this is a real reality or just an in-head experience. If we find pretty solid confirmation it’s a real reality, then we can explore that and maybe help make this reality better.

Let’s say ‘worst’ case scenario, nothing works for anyone at all, and through a bunch of trials, we all come to the conclusion we’re lucid dreaming or making it up in our head through meditation or whatever.

For those of us who believe shifting is in a real reality, we can all put on our clown noses collectively, take the L, and just keep doing what we’re doing.

We can keep the terms maybe or just shift to meditation or lucid dreaming related definitions. Keep the methods, the community feel, etc. it shouldn’t really matter. We still have the experiences, we’ll just have a different understanding of what those experiences are.

I WAS USING THIS GUIDED MEDITATION AND HOLLY FUCK I WAS SO CLOSE TO WAKING UP IN MY DR OMFG

The largest shifting amino is locked so Idk about it, but the two non-locked second biggest ones (Reality Shifting and ☁️ desired reality🍒) both support respawning. Desired reality is especially bad bc its main leader is a “respawner” and they threaten people with strikes or bans if they post “misinformation” or “refuse to get educated” about respawning. Both aminos are pretty adamant that it’s not suicide, but it seems harmful to me nonetheless. I’ve seen a number of people shift from suicidal ideation to respawning, and several posts where an individuals desperately looked for “respawn fast” subs to avoid some small thing in their future. It really seems like an unhealthy escapism and suicide-adjacent activity and individuals should not be presenting it as a valid option to depressed and/or traumatized minors who would be extremely susceptible to it.

Yeah I know respawning support is basically synonymous with amino so it’s difficult to recommend aminos related to shifting that you also don’t find respawning content on. I might have mentioned some of those aminos before?

I haven’t opened amino in a long time so I’m not up to date on what’s going on, thank you for sharing!

And yes, absolutely. Even if they believe it’s not suicide (either because they believe the soul shifts with them and it’s just a body left over and dying, or it’s a “clone” that’s dying) or they use a ‘method’ that doesn’t involve death (leaving their CR forever and letting their clone live their life) it is still harmful. Very harmful. Especially to the audience it reaches, like you said. Mentally ill minors.

You need to function in your CR. You need to be content with your CR. You were born here for a reason.

Shifting should be used for enlightenment, not escape; this is a spiritual practice, you should be benefitting your spiritual journey. Enjoying yourself both in your DR and in your CR. If you cry from frustration because you wanna shift so badly or feel miserable every time you wake up and haven’t shifted or feel like it’s the only way you’ll be happy step away. Step back. I love you and that’s not healthy.
