 “It’s the question that drives us.” –Trinity
In my post “the ‘Real” Matrix, Part 1”, I pointed out how language is the Matrix we all live in and that we are very easily fooled into thinking that words we use to represent something will somehow be the same as direct experience.
Here I am talking about another layer to the Matrix, one that again is so obvious it is invisible to most of us most of the time. That is the consideration (or lack thereof) of the intentional generation of context. It can be easy to forget that without context, nothing has any meaning at all and that without the awareness of the context we are generating for ourselves, we are at the whim of whatever context we are operating in as though it is the only possible reality.

 When we do anything in the world, there can be a tendency to think of it as purely an action… but this is wholly inaccurate.
Being is absolutely inexorable from doing. A great way of illustrating this is a question my mentor Dr. Joseph Riggio asked me last October- “which side of a quarter is more the quarter- George Washington or the Eagle?” My brain kind of melted for a moment and I answered, “Neither, of course- you can’t have a quarter without all of it.”
The reality is that there is no possibility of doing anything without asking "who we are being in order to produce the outcomes we're producing?" This also means that, if looking at it from the other point of view... "in light if the results I am producing, what has to be true about who I'm being?"
