Did you just go Matrix Loa on my bruh?

?♥️

I hear you, and I get what you’re saying, and you have my respect as well. Scrutiny is necessary and a natural intelligent course imo. Please also give consideration to the line, “No one can be shown what the matrix is, you have to see it for yourself”. Morpheus was perfectly clear about the Truth, he promised nothing more. Thomas had to choose to take the red pill. This began The Path, the unplugging (unveiling) of, Neo - The One. The fact that Morpheus already knows Thomas is The One, because Thomas is The One, is precisely why Morpheus can’t tell him the Truth about the matrix. Noteworthy, the reason Morpheus is ‘waking’ Thomas up in the first place, is because he also knows he can’t save Zion himself. He needs him. In the end, it took everyone, and true love. Love transcendent of life and death. Love which collapses all dualities. Absolute love, absolute belief in himself. 

Such is the meaning of the line, “What if I wouldn’t have said anything?” to the falling of the vase (before it fell). A pointer that nothing is predetermined, which Thomas doesn’t get. Why is he visiting the oracle in the first place? Because he isn’t aware he created that experience itself - so, to find out if he is the one.  “I hate to give bad news, but you don’t believe in any of this anyways”, she later tells him. She’s aware he doesn’t believe in, himself. How do you convince the one he is the one, when he insists it’s all fantasy hippie spiritual mumbo jumbo shenanigans and Thomas foolery? You just keep pointing, until he begins to believe in himself, until he chooses, until he decides, because it was always up to him. Then he get’s on the path. He didn’t even need to talk to the oracle really, as the kid told him the truth already. We tend not to give kids much credibility. 

Esther makes the same promise as Morpheus. Just the Truth, nothing more. Whereas Morpheus advises the psychedelic, the red pill which reveals the mirror was always your illusion, Esther is taking a different approach. A different path to the very same source, to the very same One.  Align with sensation, your infinite internal all knowing GPS, and choose the thoughts that feel good to you. She’s well aware you are already creating your reality, she aims to get you to create the one you actually want. She aims to convince you only to reconnect with your source, with your true self, knowing that this will lead you to the fulfillment, the manifestation of, your life’s dream. She knows you are the dreamer, and her intentions are true, Aligned. She’s pretty hip to the actuality. Go to a seminar, stand up for yourself, she’ll tell you to your face - “You are The One”.

It’s a lot to think about, so don’t. Let go the thinking. You have sensations. You can allow and align. Just relax, have a cookie, you’ll feel right as rain. 

I love the matrix analogies as this is my favorite movie and probably the only movie that really means something to me and that I resonate with. My father showed it to me when I was around 10 and since then I've watched it 50 times.  Even my myers-briggs personality is the same like Neo's. Every time I watch the movie, I watch it with such intensity that I become completely identified with it and it seeps into my reality to the point where I doubt whether it's a movie or not. I feel like something outside of the matrix sent me this movie as a guide. You see I have trouble with this belief thing because in my mind I associate beliefs with religion and making stuff up to fill in the void of uncertainty. As Sadhguru said: "Just believe something so you can sleep well tonight...". My spiritual journey in this life began as one teacher pointed me towards the realization that I really know nothing and my head is filled with beliefs. He suggested that beliefs are the building blocks of the Ego and once I let go of all beliefs I will transcend the false self and see things as they are. Ever since that moment I've been adamant about letting go of all beliefs but eventually I just fell into a bottomless pit of nihilism. There was no revelation or some grand awakening or clarity just being stuck in agnosticism and I became completely lost and frustrated. From time to time I would elevate to more pleasant meditative states where I didn't care about thinking but eventually it would start feeling like escapism and this would rekindle the need to go further again. I need to go further desperately... I can't just settle for peace and watching the rain drops fall. I feel like a caterpillar that's been ready to become a butterfly for the last 10 years but for some reason it's stuck in caterpillar mode and can't move on. I am going to be honest with you...

I think I know what you are trying to tell me. You are saying "Follow the white rabbit." and I am stuck in that feeling where I am not sure if I am awake or still dreaming...

P.S. sick track btw, I have to watch the movie again now...

Science is magic happening at will. Scientists/magicians used to keep it a secret to dominate people and convince them that they have superpowers. Imagine going back in time one thousand years, a phone would be complete magic and a superpower that people would think you're God. I think magic is the science that is some years ahead of mainstream science in any given society.

The other kind of magic that you're talking about I believe is possible, but not at will, at least not up until now and not in our current state of consciousness.

No I am not satisfied at all. I can't remember the last time I was satisfied. Everything is struggle for me. I want ease but all I have is dis-ease. I think everyone including me is crazy.

If you’re not satisfied with your answer, why did you settle for it?

Because I have never been able to make a conclusion that I cannot doubt and therefore answers don't work for me.

@tatsumaru Just relax and think it through. Try to write & express the barriers as they’re discovered.
