The Holographic Universe as Explained by the CIA

Our reality could be a three-dimensional projection of a two-dimensional world, where time travel is really possible.

As the contemporary laws of physics would have us believe, we all exist in a four-dimensional universe; three dimensions of space and one of time. Otherwise known as the 3+1 dimensional universe.

Theoretical physicists have spent decades arguing over and theorising possible answers to one question: what is the nature of these four dimensions? And not only have academics attempted to tackle this question but the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) too.

A declassified 1983 study titled “Analysis and Assessment of Gateway Process,” funded by the CIA shows the US Government once attempted to research “altered states of consciousness,” using brain hemispheric synchronisation, or “Hemi-Sync” techniques.

Their goal? To escape the “restrictions of time and space” and to “gain access to the various levels of intuitive knowledge which the universe offers,” the study authors wrote.

Further analysis of the paper indicates the CIA was also dabbling with an earlier version of the holographic universe theory.
