What is The Matrix?
The Easy Way Out.
by Jon Rappoport
August 5, 2017
Point one: The basic fact to remember about the first Matrix film was that a hero had to be chosen. ONE MAN. A person who would function beyond the rules of the space-time continuum.
Not a group. Not a committee.
Real power would accrue to an individual.
Point two: in real life, the reason the real Matrix endures is that there is an audience for it.
And audience is fascinated by, and glued to, STORY.
There are certain kinds of stories that are particularly effective at maintaining audience in a state of being audience.
For example, the hero is faced with a problem which turns into a mystery, and he then penetrates the mystery after much work and danger—during which time his friends lose faith in him—and finally the hero does away with the villain at the heart of the mystery…
WHATEVER KEEPS AUDIENCE BEING ONLY AUDIENCE KEEPS THE MATRIX IN PLACE.
For the most part, audience wants to remain being audience, and it will search for and rationalize ways to do just that.
Religion can be an excellent way to remain being audience on a cosmic scale.
The power to exit from being audience is real and significant. Without it, you stay in the Matrix.
Story has beginning, middle, and end. This pattern, so obvious and universal, is rarely thought about, but it creates a trance. Try writing a story without that sequence and see how many people want it.
“I’m audience, and I want beginning, middle, and end, over and over.”
Part of being audience is experiencing the letdown that happens after the story ends. This depression stimulates the need for another story. And on and on it goes. But the letdown, at a deeper level, is really about a dissatisfaction with the WHOLE PATTERN of story—people want to break out of that. They want to conquer that addiction.
And how is that done?
Well, the first step is being able to invent a story of your own.
And this is where people balk.
A few years ago, I received an email from a reader who expressed, in a vague way, his dissatisfaction with “my story.” As if he had been looking for a “master story teller”–which was an idea in HIS own mind—and since I didn’t fulfill that ideal, he was unhappy.
This was a perfect illustration of what I’m talking about. He wanted to remain being audience, and he was looking to me to supply material for his trance.
BEING AND REMAINING AUDIENCE magnetizes people to Matrix.
At a conference, I once gave a talk about freedom. In the middle of the talk, I told the audience we were going to do a few exercises that would possibly enhance their sense of freedom. The very notion that I was asking them to DO something, to come out of their audience-trance…which they hadn’t expected, caused a stir, a sense of apprehension. They were programmed for beginning, middle, and end—and I was suddenly shredding that.
They had planned on being entertained with the notion of freedom.
After the lecture, a friend of mine came up to me and said, “Did you catch what happened there, when you told them you were going to have them do exercises?”
“Sure,” I said. “That was on purpose.”
THE MATRIX EXISTS BECAUSE THERE IS AUDIENCE FOR IT.
On the level of mind, Matrix IS whatever keeps audience being audience.
Consciously or unconsciously, every salesman knows this.
I knew a quite successful salesman who revealed his secret to me. If he had told this secret to a psychiatrist, he would have been diagnosed as bipolar or schizoid in two seconds.
He said he knew he had been a salesman in many past lives, and therefore he knew exactly how to act and speak “in the role” of Salesman. If he followed the role exactly, his prospects would buy whatever he was selling. If he didn’t, they wouldn’t. There was a beginning, middle, and end to his pitch.
He had the knack of keeping his audience in a state of being audience. In a trance. And part of the trance was signing the check and the contract. It was a piece of cake.
AUDIENCE DOESN’T INVENT.
THEY EXPERIENCE.
AND THAT’S WHAT THEY WANT.
MATRIX.
You have a choice. You can go along for the ride in Matrix, or you can imagine imagination and embark on the journey of journeys.
Most people are not up to contemplating the idea of consciously creating, much less spontaneously improvising, which involves a kind of merging with what they would create.
But for those who can grasp such an idea, the world and the universe aren’t any longer arbiters and rule makers and guides. They are inventions that are already here.
Ensuing years of research resulted in my three recent Matrix collections, of which Exit From The Matrix is most focused on practical techniques of imagination — to make your deepest desires fact in the world.

What has been called The Matrix is a series of layers. These layers compose what we call Reality. Reality is not merely the consensus people accept in their daily lives. It is also a personal and individual conception of limits. It is a perception that these limits are somehow built into existence. But this is not true.
What I’ve done here is remove the lid on those perceived limits. This isn’t an intellectual undertaking. It’s a way to open up space and step on to a new road, with new power.

THEY love a good story.
WE are the matrix. How can the creator be separate from its creation, but WE will spend an eternity trying to convince our self that WE are the victims…….NOW, that’s entertainment!
A couple of things: 1., I wrote a novel that is an unconventional novel, as it hasn’t a plot. It is simply about people coping with their lives. I’m awfully good at dialogue and characterization. (Without literature, where would we be, after all?) Still, no agent will even read it.
2. I’ve recently been informed that we have been trapped by the “go to the light!” routine (when our bodies fall to one side). You do not HAVE to go to the light. That light, this new teaching informs, is not Source at all but a trick by our enslavers who want to recycle us back onto the planet. The loved ones there to greet you, friends and family, might well be holograms, or perhaps they are suckers, just like you if you fall for this ruse. Or is it a ruse? This is what I struggle to determine. One theory is, those who would deem to enslave you cannot do it against your will, so they have to fool to into acquiescence, taking you into a room and showing you where you went wrong and what you need to accomplish in your next life to correct it . . .
Okay, so we know that we are not perfect, so it’s easy to swallow this swill, if it is in fact swill. But then we are never going to be perfect for as long as we accept an ego, which is necessary in order to be reborn. So “they” have us! But wait, doesn’t it make sense that everything Source (or God, if you will) creates really IS perfect? Ergo you really ARE perfect as long as your ego dies with your body, and in fact it does. The ego cannot ascend; only your soul can. So why would you be dumb enough to accept a new ego?
There are entities, oddly enough, who gain sustenance off of negative emotions. The negativity is pronounced “loosh”, after Lucifer one would have to assume. Negative emotions abound on planet Earth; no denying it. These entities dwell in the fourth dimension; you could call them blood suckers, which is close enough. (Their physical counterparts on earth really do drink blood; Satanists).
When you croak, you do not have to go to the light-that-is-not-God, therefore. There are exits out of the tube, left and right, (as I understand matters) where you can choose to be free. The Creator offered us free will and we accepted, eons ago. Exercise your choice. Try your wings! This is what I’ve determined to do, because if you change your mind, you can always jump back into the tube leading you to “loved ones” and a cheerful gentle staff who will show you where you went “wrong”. And they will usher you right back into the hell that is life on the physical plane.
I came into this world, a Lightworker. A volunteer. I am in service to Source and only to Source.. Even so, I was born under the veil of forgetfulness, as everyone is. Trying to piece together bits of the puzzle, in order to teach, for I am supposed to teach, has been tedious. I pray that all that I’ve offered just now is true and that it helps.
Marilyn, thanks for sharing. There are so many things we dont know and were not allowed the opportunity to discover. We have a lot of ground to cover!
An important thing to remember is the I am. Then how can we be manipulated? Even in law, an adhesion contract is non binding, null and void, so why would that not be so in the spiritual planes?
The vedas have much to teach us, and this one in particular is paramount.
And to this day, [those] who…know the self as I am Brahman [the ONE], become all this universe.
Even the gods [any other dimensional beings] cannot prevent his becoming this, for he has become their Self. …if a man worships another deity thinking: He is one and I am another, he does not know.
He [who does not know] is like a sacrificial animal to the gods. As many animals serve a man, so does each man serve the gods. Even if one animal is taken away, it causes anguish to the owner; how much more so when many are taken away!
Therefore it is not pleasing to the gods that men should know this [that they are the ONE].
Brihadaranyaka Upanishad, I.iv.10

How good of you to reply, Terri.
I am a student (and teacher) of A Course in Miracles. So I accept that this world is illusion; the physical plane in entirety is illusion. My concern is that maybe souls have been trapped here for purposes of harvest. ‘End Times’ happens to be quite close and since very few will be taking their bodies with them, it is imperative, in my view, that individuals make their intent known prior to making an exit. In other words, know what you’re doing. Have a plan. Ask, perhaps, that one’s guardian angel or the holy spirit takes charge of the direction one should go, or at least offer choices and explain any possible ramifications. This is important even if End Times weren’t upon us very soon. (I’m thinking two years, maybe).
There is an ‘event’ headed our way and I’m concerned that my brothers and sisters will be traumatized. Please remember, all, that karma is only true if you want it to be.
We are One. Blessings!

futuret: Thanks so much for the google ‘warning’. Many blessings.
WE MUST TAKE CARE AND WATCH OUT FOR EACH OTHER; AS THE MATRIX OF THE GLOBAL ELITE SHALL LEAD US TO OUR DESTRUCTION. MANY BLESSINGS TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY AS WELL. BLESSINGS TO JON AND HIS FAMILY AS WELL FOR CONNECTING US THROUGH HIS BLOG.

The Matrix is an enforced addiction to intellectual thought. We are taught at every level of society to ‘use our head’, to absorb facts, information, and experiences by which we can more easily interpret the meaning of present experiences. This robs us of any true and complete experience of presence by virtue of the polluting aspects of the past by which we define the present. We therefore continue to repeat, replay, and re-experience the past with all its unresolved trauma experiences; and never look beyond the matrix for our real truth, our undiluted experience of our beautiful, perfect, and magical higher self. This is found only in the perfect silence of thought, which is not silence at all; but rather, an exquisite journey of inner vibration that ultimately reveals itself as unconditional love. This is the other path, outside the matrix of our binary thought process which insists upon a beginning and an end. Within the matrix a thing is either good or bad, and there is nothing in between. This is the limitation of computer logic, and also the limitation of our intellectual consciousness. This is not consciousness at all, but rather, a form of mind imprisonment.
thank you, Carl. Our true power lies beyond the no mind.
The Matrix is big, and it is small. On a small scale, it keeps us entranced with our own story, good or bad. Psychoanalysis just helps people to become aware of their subconscious stories, but unfortunately, they tend to embrace them and further embellish them rather than abandon them. They just add the appropriate label or condition and it becomes a part of their story.
The habit of thinking of ourselves as part of a story, and observing yourself in this way in real time, leads to a stiff, predictable, reactive type of shell character. And inhibits our imagination and creative power.
The big matrix, the global one, is just another form of the same thing, a common story that we have to take part in. So it’s not enough just to expose globalism. Even if we got rid of the NWO, another flavor of it in the guise of a different story would come along. Individual self-stories always breed social stories, so the solution is to give up these self-stories. To just be, totally unselfconscious, to let go of every saved bit of story. So-and-so hurt me, I’m not very good at such-and-such, or even the good stories – I’m a caring person, a hard worker, or on a path to somewhere. I think we’re all better off dropping those little matrices.
In the beginning was the WORD.
It is a symptom who’s relative life depends on the individual crying we we we all the way home …….THE END
