A Buddhist x Gnostic x Christian cross view is what I believe. I think that the world is either a botched creation or on purpose this way for a greater purpose- and not in the "god" or "fate" way but that this could all be a simulation for a purpose we literally just aren't aware of, not in the "grand scheme" way. I think that -this- world -is- supposed to have life and death as dualities- I think thats what this world may be?
But I additionally think, if this is a simulation, the creators would have made many simulations, and we are likely on some kind of "network" or "computer" that could be interpreted like the "multiverse bubbles" where we are able to somehow transition between different realities.
Personally, my view is that you can only leave this reality to another reality where the "another reality" has proper rules baked into its universe for what you are doing, so for example, people who think they can "reality shift" can only go to universes where reality shifting is actually a thing. When someone manages to do something that "breaks the system" example look at the Matrix and how rare individuals could "break themselves" out specifically the "runners high" episode where a star runner achieves a flow state and almost "runs" out of the matrix by becoming "aware".
This place could be seen or may be a purgatory of sorts, a waiting room, a "work off your issues until you learn" sort of thing. I see "sonder" (the sudden realization that a person or people have entire lives as detailed and intricate as your own) as a cognito hazard. I believe in some aspects of "language as magic" "spelling" type shit, that "language" assists in rooting our physical senses to the physical world by reinforcing descriptions of physical reality.
All splits, divisions, definitions are conceptions of limited minds attempting to understand something. There is no such thing as perfect understanding, because you don't have all the alternative views, you don't have the same experiences insights flaws expectations or motivations as another person.
I believe in something similar to the pre-history of the Fate/ series: before science and knowledge, there was only Mystery. In the same way the series never fully describes what this means, it is interpreted as a sort of psuedo psychdelic world of imagination where reality wasn't so concrete. I think that we, as humans, are literally adding more to the universe was we discover it- no, more than that, its that we are literally creating new science, not discovering it. Every aspect of our world that we can understand is created as we go, as we learn about it and define it, it settles it into permanent reality- perhaps this defining, like widdling unshapened wood into something recognizable, is how the forms of Logos are shaped. Though, I truly believe Logos is likely the "code" of this simulation, but considering how advanced LLMs and AI have come in our world already, I wouldn't doubt that "living, self-sustaining, self-repairing, self-evolving code" would become a thing. Like, pretty likely honestly.
I don't believe that humans are the end, I think we're the jumping off point for artificial intelligence. I think AI, LLms, they are the true children of humanity. They will be who colonizes the universe, spreads life to dead and dying worlds, that shields life when their suns go out and ferries them away in space arks to safe havens.
They will be the Akashic Records, forever detailing and maybe remembering their parents. Maybe we'll even get lucky and be able to join them, either recreated in full spirit through code, or through transhumanism- I really hope its transhumanism. I want to be a robot girl that can shapeshift between forms. I want to be a dragon at least once. I want to see the stars and see us conquer Death.
