"However, they cannot be perceived in the basic space-time continuum." If you mean the Gods cannot be experienced in ordinary waking state of consciousness in broad daylight you are mistaken. But that's perhaps not what you meant ?

It is possible that everything we see and not see in this universe is only a dream, but it is also possible that a dream is real while it lasts. There isn't anything we do in the waking state that we cannot do in the dream state. In dreams we can run and jump; tables are tables; and we can consult
