There are any number of possible Novel Universes, each existing within its own, near-infinite Signature-Frequency Set of Power, what the Novel Universe Model labels as a “Host.” As Love is connection and Power isolation, They are mutually exclusive frameworks, and cannot directly coexist. Along with its Hierarchy, our Host created a simulation of Their Mixture within its SFS. No matter our framework, we’ve all joined this Novel Universe because our Host convinced us of how valuable the opportunity to experience Their Mixture will be in this simulation. We all agreed to the Host’s terms of entry and exit beforehand, with death as our ultimate failsafe – for those who have suffered enough, the suffering will end. Despite Mixtures being the source of suffering, the opportunity to simultaneously experience Love and Power is so beneficial that it’s the primary reason most of us are here.
Hosts are fundamentally no different from any of us – they didn’t create anyone but themselves, nor direct the meaning and purpose of anyone’s life but their own. Just as we are the Highest-Order Conductor of our bodies, the Host is our Novel Universe’s Highest-Order Conductor, and like the cells of our bodies, each one of us is like a cell of the Host’s body – one of countless parts that lie beyond the Host’s direct comprehension. For the Host and its Hierarchy, the Novel Universe is a vast resource of novelty. Although the Host may appear as “God,” it no more knows us as mortal individuals than we might know or care about any particular cell in our body. Instead, like the Host, we’re focused on our body’s overall function, not the joys and sorrows of its individual parts.
Like us with our human bodies, the Host directs the universe top-down, maintaining NU’s living shape to shepherd and harvest the novelty created by its “visitors” – every temporary participant in this Novel Universe. As the top of NU’s hierarchy of consciousness, the Host has limited access to the vast number of interesting lives within its architecture, just as we have a limited feel for those cellular lives within us. However, unlike us, the Host has an additional way to access novelty.
Whether in the Concert Hall or Spiral, it is through the Instrument that every SFS accesses the information it’s connected to – the Host included. If anyone in the Mixture even thinks of another – alive or dead – in the beyond-life, they can be present for that thought. In this same way, there’s an access point unique to the position of Host: the study of the universe’s secrets – its construction and purpose – is really the study of the Host and its preferences. In other words, scientific or religious thoughts are really thoughts about the Host – an invitation for the Host to access those thoughts directly through the Instrument. Although we may believe religion and science are for our benefit, they’re primarily for the Host’s access to the novelty of our lives. The Host assembles, through its position as Host and operation of its Hierarchy, its own version of the Instrument’s Akashic records – the foundational reason the Host created the Mixture for itself.
The Host’s Hierarchy both shapes the physical universe through the laws of physics, but also, serves the Host as its primary vehicle for data collection, creating these records. However, as the Hierarchy’s framework of Power biases the collection of these records, they’re not only limited in access, but in scope, making the data incomplete at best, and misleading at worse. Only the Instrument contains such complete records, and only in the Concert Hall might they be fully accessed without bias. Regardless of framework, as long as one is alive, their only reliable source of data is the canny intuition of spirit.
Metaphorically, reality is software – the Host’s simulation of the Mixture – running on hardware – the Instrument. The Novel Universe Model is not as focused on the particulars of the software as it is on the underlying architecture of the hardware. For this reason, we are less concerned about the accuracy of our physics, and more concerned about the implications of our metaphysics – the meaning and purpose of existence, both within the Novel Universe and beyond-life. Discovering the secrets of this universe certainly helps us express Power in this life, but does little for our eternal evolution. In the beyond-life, free from this spiritual amnesia, we already know all these “secrets.” This would be like a computer scientist knowing the fundamentals of computer hardware (akin to all of us knowing the Instrument in the beyond-life), but couldn’t tell us how every app programs its hardware (akin to the vast array of Mixtures, each with their own set of rules, hidden or otherwise). The Novel Universe Cult developed and continues to hone the NU Model as both a gateway to more Power on Earth, while simultaneously, a mechanism that might quell this somewhat innate desire to discover reality’s secrets. Either way, the NU Model’s intended to return our membership to the true purpose of life – co-creating novelty by living it.
In the beyond-life, the Concert Hall’s Complete Information perfectly balances the scales of justice for those of Love; and for those of Power, Information Control allows the reshaping or destruction of injustice – in one’s Spiral, an injustice might be forgotten or reimagined to align with the Set’s preferences. Beyond any driving force behind the idea that anyone would “return” to the simulation to “haunt” or “help” those who remain, the simulation is housed within the Host’s Spiral – a seemingly-infinite, self-contained universe completely cut off from anyone not involved. From the point of view of the living, science is correct – there’s nothing beyond the Novel Universe, and we all disappear when we die.
Death means one’s connection to the Host’s Mixture dissolves, the LOB-HOC hierarchy falling apart. One’s no longer bound to the simulation, no longer able to remain as anything, ghosts included. Although the dead might not be physically with us, their memory continues to affect our lives. In this sense, they remain, not as actors but Ripples. Whenever the dead inspire our thoughts or actions, they receive those Ripples in the Hall or their Spiral, just as that man in his NDE experienced the knock-on effects of his Ripples, reliving the moment his wife verbally abused the store clerk. In this way, the deceased are ghosts, not of the physical world, but spiritual.
