Mandela Effect

At choice points, where we can take one of two paths, we select a reality to step into and observe, meaning the potential energy of that reality is realised. The other paths are not observed. The other paths are not realised. They do not exist as alternate realities.

The "Time Map" is a popular representation of time, but it wrongly suggests that the other realities are still there, that there might even be different versions of us in the alternative reality, a different version of us that made a different choice.

It's incorrect.

However… it's not entirely incorrect, hence the illusion.

The energies of the "alternate paths" or the "alternative realities", the realities that were not realised, exist in your reality as potential energy. They remain in the field of energy behind our reality, or as it's commonly called, the "Quantum Field".

There is no such thing as "alternative realities", only "energetic potentials" of unrealised realities.

Imagine this…

Imagine you're outside and there's a ball on the ground. There's no one around. It's just you in an open space. Now, you're deciding to do one of two things: Kick the ball so it rolls along the ground, or slightly chip it so it bounces.

In other words, you're at a choice point, and there are two potential futures ahead of you.

But this time, these aren't two separate realities.

Imagine that in this scenario, whether you kick the ball so it rolls or bounces, both choices would end up with the ball stopping in exactly the same position at the same time. What happens in terms of 'time', or the energy of the reality, is that the choice point would create two "paths" through time, but those two paths would actually merge back into one identical state of reality.

The potential energy of both realities would split, and then merge back together into one reality simply because the energy of both realities would be absolutely identical again.

This is how it would look in the traditional "Time Map" model:

What happens here is that the energy potential of the unrealised alternate reality has reached a state that is identical to our current reality, and therefore merges into one. Despite the alternate reality not having been observed, the identical resultant energy has fused it with our physical reality.

I call it a "Fusion Point".

It would be an extremely rare occurrence in our reality with so many variables changing all the time, but it's not about the collective reality, it's about our individual realities, our individual flow through time. It will still be rare, but when it does occur, the result is quite spectacular.

At a fusion point, we have multiple potential pasts.

It's the opposite of a choice point, where we have multiple potential futures. Choice points create potential futures, while fusion points create potential pasts.

And there's something critical to remember here: A fusion point, no matter how impossible it may be, can only occur after a choice point. A choice point creates a split, forms energetic potentials of alternate realities, and fusion points merge them back into one.

By creating new fusion points, we'd create new potential pasts, and with it, new memories.

Yes, one of these memories may be an event that we'd also experience in this reality, hence Deja Vu, but there would also be ones that would be unique to the alternate past.

The "false" memories.

Of course, no one would believe anyone who experiences it. There would be no physical evidence of these memories because the energies wouldn't occur in the physical reality. But, if this were possible through conscious ability, surely this would also occur by accident too?

Surely, "false" memories would be another phenomenon of humanity?

Well, guess what… it is!

This phenomenon does exist in our reality, and it works exactly as this theory predicts it would.

... This is a fact. You can find numerous reports across the web.

Reddit. Blogs. YouTube.

People around the world, complete strangers to each other, all have vividly detailed memories of news coverage of Nelson Mandela dying in prison in the 1980s, of his funeral, the mourning in South Africa, some rioting in cities, the heartfelt speech by his widow…

Complete strangers across the world have a collective "false" memory.

Fiona Broome dubbed this phenomenon the "Mandela Effect", and it turns out it wasn't the only shared "false" memory that people reported.

Maybe you can relate to one of these other false memories.

Many report the logo of clothing brand "Fruit of the Loom" featuring a cornucopia, but it doesn't, and never has. The company themselves confirmed they didn't.

Others report Mr. Monopoly from the board game wearing a monocle, but he doesn't and never has.

Many more report – including salesmen at video rental stores – a 1990s movie titled "Shazaam" starring comedian Sinbad as a genie, yet both Disney and Sinbad confirm it never existed. Yet, video store owners distinctly remember ordering and receiving copies of the movie and putting up posters in their stores.

Yet, none can be proved.

None can be proved because there is absolutely no evidence of any of it.

None, at all.

There is only "memory", the same memory from countless strangers.

Many claim to have 'debunked' some of these based on psychological influences from other sources, and it's important to understand that there will always be an element of psychology around every experience with time, emotions and memory, and some of these may indeed be purely psychological. However, there is never just one answer, and there has never been an answer for all of these false memories.

Until now.

These false memories are exactly what "Conscious Extuity" proposes would happen. Or, specifically, what "Fusion Points" in time would cause.

Once again, it's extremely rare for alternate paths through time to result in completely identical states of reality ... which fits because Deja Vu and the Mandela Effect are themselves also rare.

At a fusion point, the energy potential of the unrealised alternate reality fuses with our current reality.

At a fusion point, we have multiple potential pasts.

At a fusion point, multiple pasts mean multiple memories. "False" memories.

The memory we'd "remember" would be the one that is most emotive to us, the one that triggered the greatest emotions.

That's how memory works.

There would be no physical evidence of the memories from the alternate energetic reality that fused with ours because the energies weren't observed in our physical reality. No observation means no physical materialisation.

Just multiple pasts. One physical past, but multiple potential pasts.
