Ontic realities are not places.
Therefore it must be that which is experiencing which is a 'place'
That which experiences in this reality of physical and mental aspects is indeed a place. That place is the brain-mind. However for all we can know there are other realities besides the one in which we are conversing. Our brain-minds are filters or mirrors of whatever it is that is extramental and we can't experience anything about it.
Maybe this:
The many-worlds interpretation (MWI) is an interpretation of quantum mechanics that asserts that the universal wavefunction is objectively real, and that there is no wavefunction collapse. This implies that all possible outcomes of quantum measurements are physically realized in some "world" or universe.
Some of these mutations of the wave function perhaps don't own a physical aspect and may be accounted to be sterile for the purpose of the theory. I admit this is far -fetched I am no physicist.
We are left with one thing certain. That any type of enquiry first has to have something real in which the enquiry itself can be expressed from.
In that, the only real 'thing' is that which is making the enquiry. IF 'things' didn't exist in which to bounce off [make enquiry of] THEN what would one have to enquire about, except ones self?
Even if that which makes the enquiry is within a simulation, this does not mean that it is hallucinating.
Now IF we call this 'thing' which is doing the enquiring, "The Creator", THEN it becomes the source of everything else. [that which is being enquired about]
In that if we call everything else "The Creation" wherein does The Creator get what we in The Creation refer to as "materials" in which to do the creating with?
One answer is that the materials [as we experience them within said physical Universe primarily Planet Earth] are not 'gotten' from anywhere by The Creator, but are essentially The Mind of The Creator.
Therefore would could ascertain from this, that The Creators Mind has voids/blank areas in which The Creator imagines into existence "things" and these are referred to as "Creations" "Simulations" "Hallucinations" etc by the individuate consciousnesses within said creations, which experience these "things" as "real".
From this we could also ascertain that the individuate consciousnesses are not imagined and thus created by The Creator, but are actually [altogether] the consciousness [that which enquires] which is The Creator...essentially we are all [consciousness] The Creator experiencing The Creator's Creation.
