Belief in a Simulation Hypothesis is not unlike a belief in a God in that the 'real' reality is transcendentally other to our life-world reality, and is responsible for it as its creator. What differs is the motive and interest this creator bears towards and the fate reserved for the creation. In either case there is also the idea that we are somehow in the image of our maker, even if this seems absurdly trivial in the former case as based in a common curiosity, and somehow sublime in the latter, but always a matter of externals, of behaviour. The creator's interest is in what is done by the creation. The notion that the supervening reality is mind-at-large, or pure awareness, or pure Being is not entirely removed from this childish paradigm, but in this case what is at stake, the ultimate identity, is entirely inward. It is a matter here not so much of creation as of emanation or reduction, as if we are projections in a limited set of dimensions or 'degrees of freedom' of an unlimited reality, and where the limitation is internally, not externally imposed. In this case it is the archetypes such as birth, death, time, and otherness that are the limited adumbrations of the nature of the senior reality. The truth is concealed behind the inescapable limitations of our experience, veiled by their very character as limitations.
