The onion layers
I always wonder if they are really layers/dimensional steps... maybe we are just perceiving them as being so, adapting them in a way to make our rational and calculating minds to understand the notion of change. If we turn our backs from a highly populated street for two seconds we see something else. It's still reality but it looks different. And then we think wow it must have gone to the next level. and then we make a pattern in understanding reality in that manner.
If we choose to look at the same street we become that street and live the actual change rather than thinking it is changing. It is more than doing the math, it's being aware but unwilling to ruin that aliveness that we're experiencing in order to take notes.
I think that this example applies to everything, but only from a point of view and then there are so many others to complete it.
Such as that video, it explains something, but how do we actually do it? Can we explain the esoteric through a formula? I think not, but it most certainly gives us a better understanding and maybe we can use that understanding as a catalyst for intuition.
I know it happened to me. It's like we program our mind to stop being so fixed and make room for mindfulness, for sentience
But I think it's all in us. It is already there and it all comes down to what we focus our attention on.
Maybe we take this whole concept of going back and forward in time much too literally. What if it's all about consciousness expansion. Our bodies might be unable to move (due to the obvious biological limitations, laws of psysics) from 2007 to 1963  but maybe awareness can. And by reaching that information is like going back in time and then we can make the proper change.

Then where do those characters come from? Isn't it so that we associate them with pieces of personality from the people we already know? Like, I take the sense of humor from my best friend, the charisma from my room mate and the intelligence from some brilliant scientist. What are the odds for such a person to really exist, considering how many people populate the Earth, not to mention the ones who died? It's almost impossible if somebody like that never existed.

But, seriously folks...

is any of this true? Not in the literal sense. Luckily, I didn't set out to declare truths.

This is a reflection of the reflection, and we all know light can only stretch so far. I've sketched a vague outline of the structure I've felt inward and outward... if the structure seems familiar when compared to your own internal themes, perhaps we might share and learn of our common stomping grounds.

Is telepathy real?
There are moments when it feels like the greatest lie ever told and then there are moments when we say holy shit it exists.
Again I think about focusing our attention in a certain direction.
If we experience it and those around us experience it too, I think it exists. Even if it hasn't been scientifically proven
What about the laws of physics? Are they really real? Sure, for these exact conditions they are. But do they also apply in space?

I remember of a trip I had which took place after a period of denial. Where I felt like losing human connection because I was lying to myself, so I couldn't be honest to those around me. and chaotic thinking and acting occurred as a result to this.
So yes, the trip, the Earth shaking my fixed thinking and me feeling despair and then relief. The peak of awareness happened on the come down of the trip. Not really important but what follows relates to your question.
After that trip I stopped lying to myself and became honest to others which felt the most natural thing. And then I started experiencing stuff what people usually relate to being psychic. It was/is not because I have some out of the common abilities, it was clearly because I broke down those walls and allowed myself to be more receptive.
So what is really internal and external? Perhaps it is that place we don't wanna go to and when we decide to go there we realize that it has always been part of us
