Homework 10/5

For my research paper, I want to explore the thought space of the gateway experience. A lot of people don’t know what it is at all or truly how it affects them. I have common knowledge around the subject, but there’s so much more to learn. It’s always been a question I’ve had: ‘What am I doing here?’ and ‘What is my purpose while I’m here?’ The gateway experience falls into derealization. It’s said that people who can get a full grasp of the gateway experience can basically unlock the universe, and it all started with the example of Nikola Tesla, all the way down to people like Elon Musk or Bill Gates. All have a thought space in the gateway experience. I feel like this would be one of the most interesting topics to research about and share with others. I feel like it’s something completely new. I haven’t seen it talked about in a school aspect, but I do know there are FBI unclassified documents on the subject, and I’ll take any chance to get to read that, if I’m being honest. But to share what I get to learn would be a greater feeling. I want, at the end of my research paper, to give the reader a different outlook on life, even for myself. I want to take the reader through the journey of who they are with me as I’m learning, so is the reader at the end of the research paper. I would want to see if my thinking changes the way I view situations or people. Maybe I find out an answer to my question, or maybe it leads to a bigger rabbit hole. But the information and knowledge are truly endless, and I feel like people don’t truly understand how much we are capable of, especially how much we can expand our mind and thinking to grasp the world and situations around us.

    Wow – I’ve never heard of the Gateway Experience until now! I’m very curious to see where your research takes you. Before you get too deep into reading unclassified CIA files (a very exciting source, I have to say), make sure you take a moment to phrase your topic into a research question. What is it that you’re trying to answer? How would you phrase it into a question?

    I wish you luck as you embark into this journey outside of time and space!
