Under the rug
A little story in 4 images that shows the way I see how most people deal with what happens to me, but especially with what happens to lots of other people.
I'm just a guy, a human being like you reading this page. I don't behave differently from most people.
Something happens to me that I can't explain, simply because it goes beyond all of us.
And it's not easy to « prove ». I don't even think I could prove it, but I think I can convince people!
I feel like no one is really making an effort to understand what's happening.
Experts call it delusion, most people say it doesn't exist, and the problem is solved.
To me, a delusion is a black box containing things that no one tries to understand.
Yet I'm not lying, I really do hear them (it goes further than just hearing them!), so you could say that my brain is creating these voices. Somewhere in my brain, there must be a part dedicated to creating these voices.
And how do you explain all the complexity in the way they speak? The people I can hear are real people, each with their own voice, their own way of speaking, and different expressions. Sometimes some of them have used words I didn't know (the kuffar moment, for example).
That still seems like a bit much for a personification of my unconscious, doesn't it?
That's why I think there's nothing to lose by giving yourself the chance to believe in it, experiment, and not rely on existing experts (religions, psychiatrists, psychologists, etc.). That doesn't mean I reject everything that already exists 100%.
But I do what I want; I'm not putting anyone, including myself, in danger by doing what I do.
I'm almost scientific in my approach, but to be honest, I feel that what we call the scientific framework in 2026 is too limited.
How can you fit something that goes beyond all of us into the scientific framework?
Yet it's not as if this were new; practically all religions talk about omniscience, omnipresence, etc.
