A man with a very pure spirit does DXM to 4th plateau and the spirits there marvel at him and bless him for his purity and honesty. After his trip ends, he doesn't quite return to normality. He begins to think things happen in his everyday life when in actual fact they don't happen. He subsequently comes to question his every thought.
A scene is played out showing, for example, our hero going on a date. Afterwards, on what "appears to be" the following evening to him, he interacts with the girl he went out on a date with, but she denies any knowledge of this happening. He then sees a clock and realises - actually no, he couldn't have gone out on a date with her because he hasn't yet asked her out. He stutters, "Uh - didn't I ask you to go out with me the other day..? We did go out on a date last night, didn't we?" Apparently not...
This condition gets worse. Soon our hero is wondering whether or not he done the simplest of things, like drink a beer or go out for a drive. He can visualise himself - how he must have walked to the fridge or got in the car...but the memory doesn't feel as though it fits into any time-line or have any substance to it.
This is pretty spooky right? It is basically how one can feel on higher plateau DXM (a dissociative) or large doses of HBW, and probably many other drugs. Additionally it is sensation - a warping of reality - which a person can experience during psycosis brought on by other means (such as stress, mood imbalance, obsession etc). Lastly, it can occur during or following our dreams. Ever woken up after a vivid dream, or remembered it later during the day, and thought "Wow, I dreamt that so vividly...I could almost believe it was real; that it actually happened"......
This concept is real. If we learn to understand and train this altered consciousness then we can play through senarios in our heads and learn a lot from them. Like lucid dreaming, except we induce it through a state of meditation.
A step above this is the affect of diliriants. I have done DPH on two occaisions and it is a truely incredible experience. This is the really scarey stuff (not to mention its toxicity to your body). But I won't get into that now.
Now I'm going to descend to the realms of the fantastic...I just think this could make a decent, spooky sort of anime XD
What would happen if our original hero somehow began to harness his confusing new power...being able to "think" that an event happened could actually make its happening a truth. Imagine our hero forcing himself to visualise and believe in an alternate reality and it in turn coming to be an actuality - anything from having a date with a girl, to causing the suicide of an enemy...anything could come to be...
So long as he keeps his grip, of course.
