"No, no. I read it before the dream."
"It was the preamble to the dream.
It was about that book, Flow My Tears, The Policeman Said.
- You know that one?"
"Yeah, yeah. He won an award for that one."
"Right. That's the one he wrote really fast.
It just, like, flowed right out of him.
He felt he was sort of channeling it or something.
But anyway, about four years after it was published,
he was at this party and he met this woman...
who had the same name as the woman character in the book.
And she had a boyfriend with the same name as the boyfriend character in the book.
and she was having an affair with this guy, the chief of police.
And he had the same name as the chief of police in his book.
So she's telling him all this stuff from her life,
and everything she's saying is right out of his book.
So that's really freaking him out, but what can he do?
And shortly after that, he was going to mail a letter,
and he saw this kind of, um, dangerous, shady-looking guy standing by his car.
But instead of avoiding him, which he said he usually would have done,
he walked right up to him and said, "Can I help you?"
And the guy said, "Yeah. I ran out of gas."
He pulls out his wallet and he hands him some money, which he says he never would have done.
And then he gets home and he thinks, "Wait a second.
This guy can't get to a gas station. He's out of gas."
So he gets back in his car. He finds the guy, takes him to the gas station.
And as he's pulling up to the gas station,
he realizes, " Hey, this is in my book too.
This exact station. This exact guy. Everything. "
So this whole episode is kind of creepy, right?
And he's telling his priest about it,
describing how he wrote this book,
and four years later, all these things happened to him.
And as he's telling it to him, the priest says, "That's the Book of Acts.
You're describing the Book of Acts."
He's like, "I've never read the Book of Acts."
So he goes home and reads the Book of Acts,
and it's, like, you know, uncanny.
Even the characters' names are the same as in the Bible.
And the Book of Acts takes place in 50 A.D., when it was written, supposedly.
So Philip K. Dick had this theory...
that time was an illusion and that we were all actually in 50 A.D.
And the reason that he had written this book...
was that he had somehow momentarily punctured through this illusion,
this veil of time.
And what he had seen was what was going on in the Book of Acts.
And he was really into Gnosticism.
and this idea that this demiurge, or demon,
had created this illusion of time to make us forget...
that Christ was about to return...
and the kingdom of God was about to arrive...
and that we're all in 50 A.D. and there's someone trying to make us forget,
you know, that--you know, that God is imminent.
And that's what time is. That's what all of history is,
this kind of continuous, you know, daydream or distraction."
