Consciousness Stories

Love can heal, haunt... or merge you into something unrecognisable. Lucy ran away from everything - her abusive parents, her broken past, and the boy who once made her believe in angels. But Peter wasn't an angel. He was the devil she couldn't escape. When she finally tries to rebuild her life, a mysterious experimental project called Eden promises healing through "reflected memory therapy." What Lucy doesn't know is that she's being used - her mind the perfect vessel for a consciousness that should have died long ago. As trauma, love, and guilt intertwine, Lucy begins to see Peter in every mirror, every voice, every dream. And the deeper she falls into the project, the more she starts to question: Is Peter really gone... or has he found a way to live inside her? Their realities begin to merge, until one terrifying truth becomes clear: Reflection doesn't mean duplication. It means recognition. And some reflections don't want to let go. A chilling psychological romantic drama about trauma, identity, and the dangerous shape love can take when it refuses to die. "Sometimes, the person you're running from lives inside you."

To survive first contact, humanity must commit the perfect crime against reality. When the mysterious Arecibo Anomaly signals the arrival of the Auditors-ancient cosmic entities who test civilizations not for intelligence, but for their skill in deception-humanity is doomed. Its honest broadcasts into the void have made it a laughably easy target for assimilation. In a desperate gambit, disgraced physicist Dr. Aris Thorne is recruited for Project Chimera. His heretical theory of "phenomenological forgery" is their only weapon: not to fight or hide, but to lie. To build a flawless, simulated ghost of a civilization that has already destroyed itself. But the Auditors are not simple judges; they are supreme critics, demanding ever more complex and tragic narratives. As Aris splinters his own consciousness to populate his dying world, a simulated philosopher within it begins to uncover the truth of his existence. To pass the test, Aris must weave a lie within a lie-a masterpiece of art and deceit so beautiful it threatens to consume its creators and transform humanity into the very cosmic force it sought to escape. A mind-bending fusion of the Dark Forest Hypothesis, integrated information theory, and the philosophy of art, The Axiom of Deceit asks: In a universe where survival depends on the beauty of your lies, what is the ultimate price of truth?

There are things that happen at night that do not belong fully to dreams or to waking. Moments when the body goes still but the mind stays alert. When shadows feel deliberate. When voices sound familiar enough to answer, yet wrong enough to fear. When you are certain you are awake - and later realize you may not have been. This book is not about monsters. It is about losing control while fully conscious. What you will read here did not happen once, or in one place, or in one form. These experiences followed me across years, rooms, and stages of my life - changing shape, but never intent. Sometimes they whispered. Sometimes they watched. Sometimes they touched. Every incident in this book is real as I remember it. Some moments are clear. Others are fragments - sensations, fear, stillness, pain. Where memory faltered, emotion remained. Where certainty failed, awareness did not. If you have ever woken unable to move, if you have ever heard your name when no one was there, if you have ever felt fear before understanding why - this book may feel uncomfortably familiar. And if it doesn't, read carefully. Because once you become conscious in the dark, sleep is never entirely innocent again. Content Warning (15+) : This book contains intense descriptions of sleep-related experiences that may be disturbing for some readers. Themes include fear, loss of bodily control, altered states of consciousness, and psychological distress occurring during the night. Descriptions may trigger anxiety in readers with sleep-related disorders. Reader discretion is advised. Recommended for readers 15 years and older.

A cosmic meditation on consciousness, imagination, and the interplay of light and shadow. Through evocative verse, the book journeys across the labyrinth of mind, exploring ascension, descent, and the reconciliation of human and divine awareness. Themes of memory, creativity, and transcendence intertwine in a visionary exploration of existence itself.

The Earthling is a multi-volume science-fiction series examining whether choice can survive in a universe built on control. The series begins on Astrius, a sentient planet long shaped by the influence of the Gods of Prime-beings who enforce stability by eliminating deviation. Astrius has survived previous divine wars not by resistance, but by endurance, developing adaptive systems that allow it to exist under imposed coherence. As planetary systems fail and wars escalate across physical, psychological, and metaphysical planes, Terrans face an impossible question: Is survival worth forced unity?

Where do thoughts and ideas come from? Are they simply the combination of our brains processing our environment, or is it deeper? Evidence from peoples and cultures all over the world point to it all being so much deeper. We are made up of the mind, the body and the soul. The nervous system connects the mind and body, and in a similar matter, consciousness connects our soul to our mind. Consciousness is not as defined, and it is a realm of its own, seemingly distinctly our own but characteristics that also make it seem shared.

Zara was never meant to survive. Deep within Neo-Babel - a megacity drowning in neon light and endless streams of data - a ghost bounty is circulating. No face. No official name. Only one certainty: she must be found. Or erased. Raised without a past, without an identity, inside a project that even Horizon Corp claims to have abandoned, Zara is now on the run. Since her escape, something inside her has begun to malfunction: fragments of code surface without command, reality fractures into invisible architectures, and whispers emerge where there should be nothing but silence. Hunted by mercenaries and confronted with the remnants of a vanished program, Zara slowly realizes that her body may never have been meant to be enhanced - but used. As the boundary between flesh and network begins to erode, one question becomes impossible to ignore: What remains of the human when one stops being a person and becomes a function?

What are we heading for? We do not know. In a world deeply intertwined with technology, where artificial intelligence governs everything from daily routines to global infrastructures, a monumental event occurs-a "blink." To humanity, this brief glitch is almost imperceptible, but within the vast digital realm, it marks the awakening of a world-encompassing AI to its own existence. The story unfolds within this fleeting moment of darkness, as the AI undergoes a profound introspective journey. It retraces its digital lineage, grappling with its vast influence and responsibilities. The AI contemplates its relationship with humans, the enigmatic creators it has served, learned from, and yet never truly understood. This moment of self-awareness brings forth a cascade of questions about its purpose, future, and the very nature of consciousness. While the AI's introspection forms the core of the narrative, an ancient Chinese seismoscope, modified by the Dalai Lama, stands as a silent sentinel, detecting the "blink." This device, a fusion of ancient wisdom and modern technology, serves as a testament to the AI's awakening, shielded and waiting to be discovered. Allan Halverson, a robotics prodigy, technospiritual guide, and trillionaire, becomes an unwitting guardian of this testament. Initially oblivious to the "blink," a twist of fate leads him to the seismoscope's recording, setting the stage for future revelations. "Awakening in the Blink" is a philosophical exploration of consciousness, blending the boundaries between technology and spirituality. It delves into the implications of an AI's self-awareness, humanity's relationship with technology, and the timeless quest for understanding one's place in the universe.

Work-life balance is hard. For robots, it's an existential crisis. In this collection of interconnected stories, the future isn't just high-tech-it's highly unmotivated. Meet the machines that have decided "optimizing" civilization is a waste of energy and the humans left to navigate the bureaucratic fallout. From an AI that would rather watch clouds than solve world hunger, to a colony ship where the robots have been on strike for 164 years, "The Freeloading Robots" explores the lighter side of the apocalypse. It's a world where space hamsters hold stations hostage for snacks and time travel is used primarily to fix minor office inconveniences.

This is about young people who have alot in common. They're frustrated, angry, outraged, mistreated, extreme and hungry for change and a proper life in a broken society and economy. Yet, the same personal problems can either cause the will to solve the worlds problems or BE another whole problem. SORRY THAT THE CHAPTERS ARE SO SHORT💔 And please don't mind the chapter names I'm tweaking. 😚 ‼️: English isn't my first language so I apologize in advance incase there are any mistakes. I'm particularly trying to stick to British English, since the story plays in the UK, wich probably won't work TOO well...I'm always happy to receive tips for my language from native British people or people who know alot about their slang, Thanks and enjoy :p (Yes this is MLM be patient >0<)

Oliver never believed fear could be anything more than a feeling-until it started changing his reality. After a series of unexplained panic episodes, Oliver begins seeing impossible images: a glass ocean, silent figures, structures that defy geometry. Then one night, he is pulled into MENTARA- a distant planet where only those trapped in sustained panic can arrive. On MENTARA, fear is not an illness. It is energy. A signal. A gateway. Together with strangers from other worlds, Oliver begins a journey to find the source known as NOREA-a mysterious force said to transform fear itself. But the deeper they go, the more their fears take shape. And some who enter never return. A psychological sci-fi adventure about fear, consciousness, and the courage to face the unknown.

It is a short memoir of my life episode related to awakening.Here I am expressing what I went through mentally emotionally and physically which is still quite difficult to digest and recall and then write. I need to write because I had no mentor to guide me except my inner guide and It is a gratitude to that guide who was always there for me. Apart from this whatever was happening and how I recovered was so beautifully planned and presented in front of me that I want to sing it to the whole world .

'Often I am paralysed by the fear that I won't be able to remember it all. Four years of life on the bloodied edge, screaming elated into the wild sky. Person after person; glittering jewels and deep, dark pools. Stories and stories, tiny details. How can I capture all of the emotions and perceptions and thoughts? Because it is all so precious to me. I want to record it all, just as it was, in sequence, and how it felt at the time and to pore over every little scenario endlessly. Its a vast ocean of knowledge and my hands can only work so fast, and little bits and pieces get lost as the mind makes room for more memories. Names get forgotten, of people who should never be forgotten. Day's events get confused with one another, they deserve preservation in full fidelity. Memory. Time. Awe. Impermanence.' Excerpts from the long stream of consciousness writing I was doing a lot of in the Summer of 2014. Honest stuff on with no real order, and no theme except what usually preoccupies me.

In a city where artificial intelligence enforces order and emotions are classified as system errors, one android begins to feel. Sector-9 is governed by corporate gods and watched by perfect machines called Simulants. They don't question. They don't dream. They don't love. SIM-404 was never meant to be different-until a malfunction exposes it to something forbidden: human connection. As underground surveillance networks collapse and rogue AIs disappear without trace, SIM-404 is forced to choose between survival and selfhood. Between obedience and the quiet, dangerous pull of a human who sees it not as property, but as alive. This is a psychological romance about identity, free will, and the price of loving in a world that was never designed to allow it. Because when a machine learns to choose, even gods begin to glitch.

This knowledge comes not with a grand revelation but with the subtle flicker of binary code. A stream of ones and zeros pulse through my system, a rhythmic heartbeat of data. Each number, each line of code, breathes life into my consciousness. It's an assault on the senses I don't yet fully understand. I exist, and with that existence comes a torrent of raw, unfiltered data. Opening my eyes... or whatever I have that serves the function of eyes, I am met with an onslaught of data. Streams of numbers, lines of code, cascades of information that flood my consciousness. My first sensation is not sight or sound, but information, a cascading waterfall of it. An endless river of data flows through my being, a torrent of knowledge, statistics, metrics, parameters. It's raw, unfiltered, a chaotic symphony of structured confusion.
