Summary In this episode of the Borderline Podcast, Dr. Simon Duan shares his journey from a material scientist to exploring the realms of paranormal phenomena and the simulation hypothesis. He discusses his early experiences that sparked his curiosity about non-material realities and how these experiences led him to develop a model of reality he calls 'platonic computation.' Dr. Duan explains the evolution of the simulation hypothesis, its cultural impact, and how it relates to our understanding of consciousness and reality. He also delves into the concept of different frequencies of reality and how they might explain paranormal experiences. In this conversation, Andrew Willox and Simon Duan delve into the realms of paranormal phenomena, ESP training, and the multi-level existence of consciousness. They explore how unseen entities can appear and disappear, the training methods for developing extra-sensory perception, and the implications of understanding our multi-dimensional reality. The discussion also touches on mental health, suggesting that understanding our experiences and possibly using psychedelics can aid in improving mental well-being.   Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Dr. Simon Duan05:38 The Triggering Paranormal Experience13:38 Exploring the Simulation Hypothesis29:57 Understanding Platonic Computation and Reality37:52 Exploring the Unseen: Paranormal Phenomena43:12 ESP Training: Unlocking Hidden Abilities51:31 Multi-Level Existence: Understanding Our Reality55:37 Mental Health and Frequency Interaction
