where you are with that friend. But how can you possibly know what awaits you in that version of reality? That’s why things happen where, for example, you had a friend named Masha. You all knew her – she was from your neighborhood, from your school, she shared many mutual friends with you. She was your friend. And then, suddenly, Masha disappears for ten years. Why? Because she switched multiverses. But now, you still perceive this in terms of frequencies. In other words, you don’t think of it as “disappearing” in the literal sense – she still physically exists, you can still call her, but she has simply immersed herself in something else entirely.
Right now, you might feel a bit stuck, thinking, “Alexandr, this is confusing. But isn’t it just a choice? I mean, no matter what I do – whether I become a chef or start a relationship – I still know you. If Masha suddenly disappears, we can still find her and call her. She’s just moved to another country, that’s all. What does this have to do with the multiverse?” Well... not exactly. Let me explain further. When it happens that your friends, Masha and Paul, suddenly seem to vanish – not physically, but as if they have relocated somewhere – it might actually be a sign that your multiverse has shifted, and you didn’t notice. You have entered a version of reality where you are no longer friends with them. They still exist, but in this version of events, you no longer connect, they have different interests, they’ve become different people, and so have you. Now, let’s move on. If you still want to grasp this concept in purely physical terms – because many of you need things to be clear-cut, like “here are two apples, here are three apples, if there are no apples, then there are none” – and you want to understand the multiverse in that way, I’ll try to explain it differently. Imagine that your friend Paul or Alex suddenly becomes a billionaire. But consider this – there could have been a reality where Paul did not become a billionaire. And it’s not that his fate depended on you, no. You see, this is just a perspective for you as an observer. If you had chosen one version of the multiverse, then in that version, Alex or Paul would be a billionaire. But if you had made a slightly different choice, you would have ended up in another multiverse where their business didn’t take off. But this shift happens so subtly that today, you, I, and everyone else know, for example, that Alex or Paul is trying to build some kind of flying bus. A year from now, if they end up receiving funding, an award, or a billion-dollar investment, we would perceive it as one continuous timeline.
