in the very basic level of the universe there is an intrinsic randomness built in. if that was not the case and everything was predetermined by the rigid laws of physics, then the universe had a smooth structure with no differences — everything would have been the same everywhere. as the universe has very different structures in it then it’s the proof of countless random actions in the physical processes. as the larger emerged sructures have the ability to override, or only seemingly override, the base level randomness, then they stay somewhat stable, giving an impression of rigid laws of physics.
the emerged awareness in the universe may be able to control the basic randomness, but not with an immediate effect on larger stuctures — the effect of control by awareness and individual will could take time, as a butterfly effect. this lag between will and effect may contribute to a false sense that everything is predetermined by the laws of physics. again, if everything was rigid then there was everything the same in the universe. as the randomness exists and we are aware, we have the intention and will to act, then we can change the reality with our mind. the question is only in the limits of the effect our mind has over the reality, over the future.
the phenomenon of seeing a distant future with our mind is easily explained — our subconsciousness is capable of understanding the physical, somewhat rigid rules of the universe, and can see where it is all heading to, but because of the basic randomness and the will of conscious mind, these predictions of the future won’t always match to the actual reality in the future. the farther away the event in the predicted future the more unlikely it is to match to the prediction. if it does then it’s because the basic randomness has balanced out and nobody was really affecting the outcome of the future with a conscious intent, and/or the numerous different intents had balanced out as well so the prediction had the chance to came true. if one is to see the future then it is more likely to come true if not revealed.
in any case, the basic randomness in the universe makes predicting a distant future very unlikely, and this is a good thing — this means the future isn’t predetermined and we can create the future we want to have, with our intention, will and action.
by taking it as a given that this universe is a simulation (read my previous articles on the subject of simulation of the universe) then it could be entirely logical that a large group of people or other creatures with the same intent has a greater effect on the reality, on the future. for the creators of the simulated universe it would make sense not to allow an individual mind to mess up the entire program and purpose of the universe, because one mind is more likely to be wrong. an individual mind could make a difference with a discovery, to upgrade the universe if there’s no other minds pushing on other directions and/or other minds have been convinced to strongly believe in the discovery. it does not necessarily mean expressed beliefs out loud but rather the beliefs and knowledge deep inside, in the subconscious level, regardless that in the open these true realisations are being denied for the sake of having less trouble.
for the programmers of the universe it makes sense to follow the similar intent of a larger group of minds, to come to a more likely truth. a critical point of a group mind must have been built into the universe, a point when it begins to have a measurable effect on reality.
