The Matrix – "Red pill? Nah. Try the real pill: presence."
My post for May the 4th go with you yesterday, got me thinking, and while I'm laid up with my health issues, I have a lot of time to reflect, to connect with myself and to meditate. So, here's another post re spirituality via the movies...Today the Matrix....
Remember that moment? Neo takes the red pill and suddenly sees the code underneath everything. Bullets slow down. Walls aren't walls anymore.
Here's what they don't tell you in the movie…
You don't need a red pill. You already have something better: awareness.....
When you sit still long enough, just five minutes, and watch your thoughts without chasing them… you start to see the matrix of your own mind. The loops. The old stories. The "I'm not good enough" programs running in the background.
That's the real awakening. Not kung fu. Not dodging bullets. Just seeing clearly... Oh. That thought isn't truth, It's just a program I installed years ago.
And once you see it? You can uninstall it. No spoon required.
So today, ask yourself.... What's one belief you've been running that isn't even yours? Someone gave it to you. A parent. A teacher. A bad day that lied to you.
You can put it down now. That's your red pill moment.
With Love ❤️
Always
