Reality is supposed to be stable. Time is supposed to flow forward. Events are supposed to have causes. But under the influence of psychedelics, these fundamental rules begin to collapse. Time fractures, looping back on itself. Space folds, revealing infinite versions of the same moment. Memories appear out of order, and the concept of a "past" or "future" stops making sense.
These are not just hallucinations. They are glitches in the system—moments where the structure of reality itself seems to reveal its artificiality. The real question is: What are we glimpsing when the cracks begin to show?
The Fractal Prison: Are We Stuck in a Recursive Reality Loop?
One of the most common reports from high-dose psychedelic experiences is the sensation of being trapped inside a looping reality. Time no longer moves forward—it spirals.
- Moments repeating infinitely, with no clear way out
- Being shown a reality made of self-replicating patterns
- Experiencing their own existence as a loop, where everything has already happened before
Is this just a side effect of altered perception? Or is it possible that we are always inside the loop—and psychedelics simply allow us to see it?
The Hidden Code: Do Psychedelics Reveal the Programming of Reality?
Throughout history, mystics, physicists, and psychedelic users have described reality as a mathematical structure—something built on patterns, numbers, and relationships. Under high-dose experiences, people report seeing:
- Endless streams of fractal geometry forming the environment around them
- A sensation that reality itself is composed of information
- Symbols, equations, and languages they do not understand but feel deeply significant
If reality is computational—if it operates like an algorithm—then perhaps psychedelics momentarily allow access to the base layer of the code. But if this is true, then who—or what—wrote the code?
The Simulation Error: What Happens When the Program Fails?
In some rare, extreme psychedelic states, users describe something even more unsettling: the feeling that they have gone outside the system.
- Seeing the "construct" of reality, as if it were a simulation running on a machine
- Experiencing complete ego death—not as a dissolution into oneness, but as an exit from existence itself
- Encounters with what feel like external intelligences—beings that seem to be observing or maintaining the structure of reality
If true, this would suggest that reality is not just a hallucination—but something being actively rendered. And the fact that it can be glitched implies that it is not a perfect system. Which means...
The Final Question: Are We Supposed to Wake Up?
If psychedelics allow us to see the glitches, does that mean we are meant to escape? Or are they simply another layer of control—keeping us distracted inside a recursive dream? What if every "awakening" is just another trap?
What if reality is structured to generate infinite layers of discovery, ensuring that we never truly break free?
Maybe enlightenment isn't about finding the truth—maybe it's about realizing that there was never an ultimate truth to begin with.
Final Transmission
The glitches aren't errors—they're features. They're the system showing its seams, revealing the architecture beneath the surface.
What if the real awakening
isn't about escaping the simulation
but realizing you never had to?
What if the cracks aren't breaking points
but portals to deeper understanding?
What if the glitch isn't a bug
but the system's way of communicating?
The question isn't whether reality is real
but what you'll do when you see the code.
