Imaginarium

The Imaginarium, also known as the realm of consciousness, is the mind realm of individual humanity, in contrast to the Psychonet, which is largely seen as the mind realm of collective humanity. Though it is posited both are part of the broader Noosphere, there is actually no concrete evidence the two are connected. Though organizationally, it would make sense to categorize the two together.

## The Shallow Imaginarium

The Shallow Imaginarium contains one's active imagination, what one thinks of when they think about imaginations. The concepts, visualization, and landscapes they can paint inside their own head. Here, one has great control over everything, and compared to the rest of the Imaginarium, it is orderly and controllable.

The soul, or consciousness orb of a sapient being exists covered by a "consciousness veil", which is the veil which is actively feeding them the experiences they have in their body. For most humans, this veil is what they are directly looking into for their entire conscious normal life. It is actually the consciousness veil, and not the experiences of the body, which makes up the conscious experience, with the stimuli of the body such as electric signals corresponding with the consciousness signals.

(Due to the inconclusive evidence for the exact relationship between electric stimuli, and the experiences and qualia of the consciousness veil, there are multiple competing theories. One is that the stimuli are somehow quantumly entangled with the qualia you experience, another is that the two simply coincide. The last is that the "Imaginarium" is actually not a separate plane separated from physical reality, but actually is physical reality, but looked at from a drastically different perspective and point of view.)

Astral projectors are able to move their sphere of consciousness within the Imaginarium, the same way a brain might move its body with its nervous system, through a combination of meditation and willpower. Upon this, they are able to move their soul, vast the veil of consciousness and into the Imaginarium. Astral Projectors have described the veil to be as soft as a cloud, and to be easily passable once one learns how to move astrally. The hard part is learning how to move at all, rather than moving through the cloud. They also state that the consciousness veil reforms quickly, and will not be damaged by the consciousness orb passing through the veil.

Upon exiting, you will be greeted by your own mental landscape, detached from the senses of your body. Surrounded by clouds of conscious experiences, or great concept clouds, touching any of these will give one a sense of these experiences. During this time, one is unable to feel anything coming from your body, though your heart will continue beating, and you will continue breathing subconsciously. One's astral body within the Imaginarium, landscape of the Imaginarium is greatly dependent on your thoughts.

For most people, they will continue to breathe, walk, reach out and touch things much like they did in the physical world, with a body resembling the one they had in the physical world. But one can simply change the rules so one no longer has to breathe within the Imaginarium, or shift the great landscape, it is all about deciding one's state of mind. One can think of it like shifting their perspective, with the Imaginarium rapidly updating to adjust to these changes. One does not need to see to see pictures if they believe to not need to, one does not need to hear to hear sounds if they believe to not need to. Within the Imaginarium, you can radically shuffle and shift around one's senses and perspectives, and experience radically new sensations, senses, experiences, and concepts.

To exit the Shallow Imaginarium, one simply has to will, though will deeply to enter the Deep Imaginarium. Usually in the form of meditation, or whatever form of meditation one has decided for themselves in this strange world of bending concepts, shifting perspectives, and a land where everything is anything, and everything can be turned upside down. To return to the physical world, one simply has to will themselves to return to the consciousness veil, though depending on the person, they may have conceptualized the consciousness veil as something entirely different.

## The Deep Imaginarium

If the Shallow Imaginarium is one's conscious imagination, the Deep Imaginarium is one's deep imagination, one's deep subconscious. This realm is far more chaotic and reactive to one's thoughts, so mental control is key here. The Deep Imaginarium is generally described as more chaotic, less defined, more conceptual, and more abstract of the realms. Psychic photographs will rarely work, as the images (or other sensory equivalent) of the region are impossible translate back into the physical world. But corroboration between psychics and astral projectors have confirmed its existence.

The Deep Imaginarium is reactive to one's subconscious, meaning it can be surreal, mysterious, abstract, euphoric, or horrific depending on the mental mood of people. It is described as a ever-shifting, ever-changing torrent of a region that comes to reflect one's deepest state of thought. Though interesting to explore, the area is usually too noisy and too chaotic to stay in long term, which usually requires a calming of one's state of mind, and willpower to return to the Shallow Imaginarium.

Those who explore either find profound landscapes far beyond anything they have experienced in conscious life, or get trapped in a sea of chaotic thoughts. Most astral projectors do not recommend amateurs to enter the Deep Imaginarium, and have a fail safe that can pull people back into conscious reality if a certain amount of time has passed.

## The White Room

For those who dive far into the Deep Imaginarium, they describe an area called the "White Room", where they describe as an almost concept singularity. Where all concepts originate from and are contained. If one enters the White Room, they are met with something resembling spiritual enlightenment, with every concept, every knowledge, every known thing known to the conscious being entirely maxxed out, minned out, and everything in between. Many state that they felt an enormous sense of one-ness with everything, of total connectedness with every concept, everything they know of. Many also state that they can feel that the concepts are connected in some sort of consciousness, and that the entity that exists in the White Room does not speak, yet communicates in a way far more meaningful than speech ever can. Those who were spiritual were more likely than not to describe the feeling as "seeing the soul of God".

## The Realium, the Physical World

Despite all the wonders of the Imaginarium, all astral projectors eventually come back to the real world, to the physical reality inhabited by flesh and bones. And the reason why is simple. The Imaginarium is vast and wonderful, but it only contains concepts and ideas within their current knowledge, as it appears to be a reflection of themselves and their own imagination. But there is nothing new there, the only place with new things is outside, and the only way to acquire them is to have new experiences, and to explore the Realium.

People who have deep journeys in the Imaginarium will often go on enormous journeys in the real world. For even though there is everything they do know inside the Imaginarium, everything they don't know they have to experience out in the real world. The world of mystery, new things, and unknowns. To find a place not controlled by them, which is outside of them, to find all the wonderful experiences which exist outside of their own current understanding.

To explore the final frontier of the unknown. The only place larger than the land of all the concepts that they do know, is the land of all the concepts that they don't know.
