The mind is seen as the master in this society. Because this is believed so strongly, it is easy to control the masses. The mind is THE system the the matrix movie is talking about. The mind has been manufactured, built by the machine. We have been made into machines to produce more machines.
Good machines can not go against the machine, because they totally believe that they are machines. The strive to make others conform to the machine because they feel that if a cog is out of place it endangers the whole system, which includes them.
The mind has been feeding from the propaganda machine since it was born.
The good news is THE MIND IS A MACHINE. Claim it back, it is a tool for you to use.
When you realize that you are not the mind and that really the mind is a tool, like a any other tool use it only when needed. No longer will you be at the mercy of mind, the mind will be at the mercy of you.
Put the mind and it's fantasies in it's rightful place, at your feet.
In order to remove yourself from the machine. You must first realise that you have become apart of the machine. Only through recognition of yourself can you then depart and claim your freedom.
Only if all the other tools would see this. But most are comfortable where they are and don't mind being a tool used by the machine.

Upon reading the opening of this thread, and watch the analogy, I began to wonder.
Information in the same way as energy cannot be destroyed either, so with that in mind, my question is where energy manifests in changing forms, is the same could be true of information, where does all of our information go when we are reborn again ? is it still with us ? but latent locked away only to be released upon death ? or is it transfered or imprinted into the light, and reunited with us upon death of a future rebirth ?
Any ideas ?
Loving this thread by the way

Refreshingly nice to have a positive thread
The only thing stopping us from stepping away from our 9-5's and the routines and the materialism is the fear that we can't support ourselves, which is not just an insult to our ancestors, but is an example of the mind frame a slave develops even when the chains are removed. We are capable of anything, but the first step is to step realise this.

People do have trouble accepting things that are different, because we have been trained by the system. Ever heard the phase divide and conquer? Governments, chuches and politics divide people, that's their job. Society is easier to control when it is divided.
When we realize that we are all one, then no division is possible.
There really is no individual anything unless you use the word universe.
We are one ocean waving.
