INTRODUCTION

Welcome to the Kbin Dimensional Jumping magazine. This place exists to provide a new avenue for Reddit migrators to discuss the phenomena of dimensional shifts, leaps, jumps, etc. Copied from the original subreddit, "[t]his is a place to share your personal experiences of the shifting nature of reality, through the deliberate application of techniques to bring about 'jumps' in our personal worlds - in effect, switching to a more desirable universe."

Universe # 982

"Please note that a shift in your experience does not require a change in [this] number, which should be treated as an emblem of change and a symbol of potential rather than an ID."

OVERVIEW

"The essence of Dimensional Jumping is the leveraging of perspective-structuring metaphors and the techniques derived from them." Links to the original methods are archived on the original subreddit and will be duplicated here as some of the introductory posts. Among them are the Mirror Method, Active Metaphors (Hall of Records, Infinite Grid, etc), and the Owls of Eternity and Two Glass experiments.

RULES

The rules are pretty straightforward.

  1. Be good to each other. This should go without saying but please post quality content, treat other users with respect, and above all else just be kind. Try to be open to others experiences and don't limit your perspective by engaging in bad conduct. It's possible that the other user may not understand the material at first--every new interaction is a learning opportunity.

  2. This is not the community for fictional horror stories/tales. Please only post genuine experiences, experiments, trials, questions, etc.

  3. As a result of Rule #2, please assume that the stories you read here are truth and not falsehood.

  4. Don't spam.

NOTE

The following has been extracted verbatim from the original sidebar of /r/DimensionalJumping:

"There is no established theory of 'jumping' or its mechanism, although there are numerous ways of viewing its nature.

It is for readers to decide for themselves through personal investigation and introspection whether jumping is appropriate for them or not.

An open mind combined with healthy caution is the correct mindset for all approaches targeted at the subjective experience.

Never believe something without personal evidence; never dismiss something without personal evidence.

What is the number?

Part of the original mythology is: maybe you can keep track of changes in your reality by referring to an anchor number or "Universe ID" for your dimension..."

MODERATORS
 

Permit me to draw your attention to a fascinating dichotomy in our perception of 'dimensions'— one that's quite illuminating when examined in-depth.

When we utter the term 'dimensions' in a physics lecture hall, we're often alluding to those quantifiable aspects of our physical world, that can be empirically measured— length, width, height, or even the intriguing fourth dimension, time, as per Einstein's relativity theory. These dimensions represent fixed values and units that lend themselves to numerical analysis, and ultimately govern our comprehension of physical space.

Yet, when we venture into the realms of sociology or psychology, 'dimensions' transmutes into something far more intricate and abstract. Here, it encapsulates the qualitative facets of our experiential reality. They're less about numbers and more about nuanced aspects like emotions, intellectual stimulations, sensory perceptions, and at times, spiritual elements.

Imagine attending a symphony, for instance. The multi-dimensional experience unfolds not just through the quantifiable decibels reaching your ear but through the emotional resonance of the music, the intellectual appreciation of the composition, the sensory ambience of the concert hall, and potentially, a spiritual connection to the performance.

In a nutshell, when we traverse the divide from physical space to experiential reality, 'dimensions' undergo a transformation— from the quantifiable and fixed to the qualitative and fluid. It's this dynamism of language and perception that contributes to the richness of our understanding of the world.

Happy Jumping :3
