Great Theories About reality

Solipsism
A philosophical theory expressing the view that, ‘I am only
the mind which exists’. According to this theory we can
not verify anything outside of our minds. This includes
every object you can see, the earth we reside on, even the
idea of ‘we’. Everything is potentially fictional. It easiest to
relate this viewpoint to dreams or an LSD trip. Everything
is so detailed so believable but we don’t acknowledge
those as a true reality. So once we come back to our ‘base
line’ reality how do you differentiate with any real
distinction what is ‘real’ or not.

Presentism
This understanding relates to time and how humans
naturally divide it. According to presentism anything
beyond the moment we live in are imagined concepts. The
past and future are not real. The meal you ate earlier and
the words you are reading now will stop
existing until you come across it again. Time is central to
to an occurrence and does not exist before or after the
occurrence.

Eternalism
Presentism’s opposite, this speculation states that time is
‘multi layered’. All time exists simultaneously, but the
ability to view events is dependent on the observer’s
location and where he is looking. According to this Trump
and Gandhi exist simultaneously. Because all events are
events in the universe you have already done everything
you will ever do and are constantly revisiting everything you
have ever done. This eliminates free will by its definition.
How can you choose some different in the future if you’re
already committing the opposite action?

The Multiverse Theory
This is one of my favorite theories of the realities of the
universe. It states that there are an infinite number of
universes. In every one of the realities events happen
differently. In a parallel universe you are a king among
men, or you don’t exist, or everyone is a saurian! I like this
one the most because it is a blanket theory encompassing
many theories for the difference in universes and the
connections between them.

The first two reflect the thinking of Rene Descartes in “Meditations on the First Philosophy”. He employs what is known as cartesian doubt to conclude that only the mind is beyond doubt. Everything else could be an illusion. Descartes does conclude that there exist a god, but probably an evil one.

These concepts could be very real. but there is one that hides under our nose. time. Time is not a vector quantity like people observe by default. the apparent directional time is created by your observation of events. Time has no direction. Time, is a dimension just like depth, width and height. if you make a three dimensional cube, house or whatever object, it is not fully defined and does not exist until the fourth dimension, time, is added. To sum up our inability to perceive the future or get into the past, look at it this way. What if you did not know how to move at all? And I put you in a box and moved you to New York without you perceiving movement, you would think Kenya, Nairobi, or wherever you were is the past or history. But the fact is that Nairobi is as real as New York and with a little education, you can locate Nairobi. That is our current relationship with time.

True. some of them makes you question everything.

That school of thought says that nothing exists until it is observed.-> Anti-materialism

There is a vital disclaimer that we mostly tend to overlook; that as soon one of these parallel multiverse “materialize” the rest tends to collapse. Just like that one furious cat who cant really wait to get his claws at the #$%#*!! who locked him in a box with a viol of snuff, or something similar.
