Portals

Intention

My intention in building this website, “thelivingmatrixhub” is to make contact with other humans who are awakening to the shift that has either already happened, is happening now or will happen soon.  Perhaps in some mystical way it is all three…

If you have gotten this far in the process then you have reached a portal.  From personal experience I have discovered and personally experienced that an intense short sustained push was the most efficient way to break through and make the change that needed to happen at the time.  Everyone has experienced these moments in life like when you left home to go to college or faced an addiction that needed to be course corrected or when you got that first job or first apartment or got married or had a child……A paradigm shift was required to adjust and set your way point a bit higher.  

It is the kind of like the birthing process.  There is a push at the end.  Many of these shifts are part of the developmental path of human beings from infant to adult.  Piaget maps them as Sensorimotor, Pre-Operational, Operational and Formal Operational….Maslow’s Hierarchy starts at survival and culminates at self-actualization.  Susanne cook-greuter and many other transpersonal psychologists have mapped the developmental states and stages of the developmental path of the individual human and humanity as a whole.

The Paradox

The paradox of the quantum leap from Tier 1 to Tier 2 is that it doesn’t require a push.  What is needed is almost its opposite.  I always equated an even to 21 day Intensive Bootcamp style Retreat as the optimal vehicle for this change.  In building this process I realize that what is needed to go from Golus to Guela – from exile to redemption, is not retreats but sanctuaries.  So, half way through the construction of the website I transitioned from the retreat mind set to more of a sanctuary mindset. 

The Buddha said that the root of all suffering (being locked in Tier 1/Matrix) is ignorance.  It is not that people are stupid.  No.  People ignore.  They ignore what they are not aware of.  And sometimes they willingly ignore because they don’t want to confront it or they have decided that they can’t know.   The Buddha said that we are ignorant of the nature of impermanence (Annica in Sanskrit).  We don’t see the always present-never ceasing, persistent and continual, arising and passing away. 

At the quantum level, particles are arising and passing away at tremendous speed…millions per second.  Because we are ignorant of the nature of impermanence we react with liking and disliking.  These reactions form ruts of reactivity; craving and aversion; Sankhara.  These Ruts of reactivity create attachments and whenever there is attachment suffering is bound to happen because everything is impermanent. 

Solution

The solution?  Eradicate ignorance.   How does one do that?  In one word…Sit.  But it is more like Sit (confront) > Be still > Become aware of (explore) sensations physical, energetic, emotional, mental > Embody the Observer; The Witness.  Simply watch, experience sensation with no judgement or ‘charge (incubate) > Both Awareness and Equanimity rise (illumination) > Wisdom is attained (Celebrate results). When you do this then the portals are revealed. Recognition of a portal is the gate to a pathway.
