      Depersonalization is a state in which you perceive yourself from a third person perspective as a character in a dream. It is hard to cure because it is literally true. Your mind is just not supposed to remember that it is the author of the dream that your self experiences.

      If you are not the author of these actions, is there an author at all? And can this be seperated from the author of any action in this universe? If you agree there is a consistent thread of time in this universe, there needs to be an author (cause) accountable for any event.

      If you say that there is no consistent thread of time (e.g by saying that, at any random/quantum event, the universe branches out into an inaccessible and disconnected state), then there is no need for any author at all. But you need to explain the persistence of physical law.

      Don't mix up the inner perspective (the dream which you and me inhabit and that is generated by a brain) with the higher plane of existence on which the hardware of the dreamer is implemented, i.e. physics.

      I think the physical universe is just a computation that probably emerges over the properties of number theory, and it is implemented as superimposed elementary automata.

      The theory that the universe is mechanical, does not care about us and the roulette wheels do not succumb to our wishes etc. gives very good predictions. But you can fudge your memories and perception and in this way, magic becomes possible.

      The problem is that the mechanical universe is dead. Over. A bad metaphor that has been useful until 1900s or so, but it has hit its limit. We cannot just wish away the problem of "roulette wheels". They need to be brought into causality, or causality is dead.

      If we give up on explaining this roulette, then why even bother explaining the brain? The persistent self in the brain can be an illusion, but it is not a greater illusion than the persistent thread of time in the universe. If greater mischief is afoot, why not smaller mischief?

      The idea of mechanism has been generalized into computation. Physics describes the universe based on the idea that it has a lowest causally closed layer. Now we can look for the simplest set of principles that can give rise to its dynamics.
