Exposure to inner mechanics of consciousness

Exposure to inner mechanics of consciousness can be described as an experience in which one feels as if they are being exposed to complex cognitive sensations which contain detailed sets of innately readable information. These do so in such a way that they are felt to convey the organization, structure, architecture, framework and inner mechanics of the underlying programming behind all conscious and subconscious neurological processes. This effect is most commonly interpreted by those who undergo the experience as perceiving the inner workings of either the universe, consciousness or reality.

The experience of this component is capable of bestowing specific pieces of information onto trippers regarding the nature of reality and human consciousness through the simple experience of them. Examples of these are difficult to fully define but common sensations, revelations and concepts are manifested. These generally include:

  • Insight into the processes behind the direction, behaviour and content of one's conscious thought stream
  • Insight into the processes behind the organisation, behaviour and content of one's short and long-term memory
  • Insight into the selection and behaviour of one's responses to external input and decision-making processes as based upon their individual personality

These specific pieces of information are often felt and understood to be a profound unveiling of an undeniable truth at the time, but are afterwards usually realized to be ineffable due to the limitations of human language or simply nonsensical due to the disorientation of other accompanying cognitive effects.

A vastly more complex and detailed account of this effect is manifested during the experience of Level 8B Geometry.
