Non-Sequential Intro-Observational Quantum
Thinking (NSIOQT):
Overview / Abstract:
This paper introduces Ontological Entanglement, a post-modern existential philosophy proposing that life is not a single linear journey, but a multidimensional weave of simulated timelines, each with its own causality. In this view, phenomena like the Mandela Effect are not memory errors, but natural consequences of converging and collapsing timelines.
Accompanying this is the mental framework known as Non-Sequential Intro-Observational Quantum (NSIQ) Thinking, which abandons linear logic in favor of multi-perspective awareness—viewing existence from multiple angles simultaneously rather than focusing solely on “what comes next.”
Significance / Impact:
Offers a secular, grounded approach to life’s meaning without relying on divine purpose.
Provides tools for emotional resilience in confronting mortality and uncertainty.
Introduces The Law of Perceptual Collapse, which examines how human consciousness compresses multiple realities into a single narrative for stability, while encouraging awareness of the larger quantum web of identity.
Core Takeaway:
Rather than claiming to hold the ultimate answer, Ontological Entanglement accepts that we may all simply be part of the question—and that embracing this uncertainty can be liberating.
