Christ, the Matrix films, and the politics of separation.

[Rahkyt]

Interesting formulation Music.

While I agree with you that Christ Consciousness was hijacked by Saul-who-became-Paul of Tarsus and the Elders led by Constantine at Nicea I must say that the first movie of the Matrix trilogy was pure and it was the philosophical psycho-babble of the second and third that exhibited the most clear example of faux-illumined twiddle-twaddle. The very first Matrix movie was based upon Sophia Stewerts book, "The One", which is actually a physical manifestation of "As Above, So Below" and corresponds to the reality that certain individuals can do things that others can't. Taken to an extreme, the existence of an individual like Neo within the human collective at some point in time is statistically inevitable.

The end of the first movie also reinforced this idea with the speech Neo gave to those he 'saved' or helped escape from the Matrix and was further highlighted in the Animatrix, most especially "Flight of the Phoenix" and the one about "the kid", who committed suicide to escape the Matrix.

neo = eon = ONE


Neo (symbolizing humanities egoic state, the relatively new/neo man, who fell from grace/into the Matrix or illusion, after eating from/identifying with, the tree of knowledge/artificial intelligence/mind)

after an eon (symbolizing many incarnations/ also the inclusion of time within the One)

realizes he is actually the ONE (symbolizing Awakening/Self Realization/Heaven).


The AI which rules the Matrix (symbolizing mind) attempts to postpone this Awakening on a large scale, symbolized by Neo’s passport/freedom being cancelled on Sept 11 2001. Or, if you prefer, is symbolized by those who planned to crash an airliner into the WTC in the TV show The Lone Gunman, which aired on Mar 4th 2001, 191 days prior to 911.

The opposite to real love ie unconditional love, is not hate, but fear. Such fear arises from identification with the body/mind. In order to transcend fear, Neo learn’s from the child Buddha (unless ye become as little children...) that in order to bend the spoon, he must realize that there is no spoon, (or body, or mind or any other separate object) - all is his Self.

As you gaze into the spoon, so the spoon gazes into you, until the reflection merges with the source...

I would say the subtlties of the first Matrix film were lost to the broader populace, while images and soundbites that promote the separation myth have become a kind of cultural shorthand.

Imagine a child carelessly dropping a toy when presented with a superior one. Imagine the realisation that "I" am "the one". Imagine how effortlessly that drops away when we realise that we are one.

To know Love, begin with that child within who cried with regret for the dropped toy. Comfort and nurture that child, unconditionally accept that child, Love that child.

Help!
I was raised without any religion, without obedience and commands.
Instead there was much love and compassion and a lot of common sense.

Am I going to burn in hell now, RedeZra ?

You made me think of this...... from your Hell statement.
