4.4 - The Human Matrix - Storage

To examine the individual or the human truth matrix, we have to remember the duality delusion.¹⁶ In this duality delusion, two minds become apparent within Creation (us). One Mind is a Matrix we share with God. The other is a mirror image of the Absolute Truth Matrix. Like a mirror image, our human matrix lacks the substance or depth of the original Matrix. However, unlike a mirror image, this human matrix contains both Truth and untruth within it. Two matrices in one being: the Absolute Truth Matrix (which is of God, and which we share with God; Absolute and Eternal) and the other, which is finite and temporal. One will be dropped eventually just because it is temporal in nature. It's finite; too limited to be depended on, and most judgments that are made are made from insufficient data (ignorance). Because these judgments are made out of ignorance, in the long term they are not conducive to our survival as beings.

As stated earlier, one matrix is similar to an upside down image of the other because one stems from the other.¹⁷ The lower human matrix is parallel to the upper Truth Matrix, as real and unreal numbers are parallel to each other. Absolute Truth is in both and it allows us to make a jump from one to the other. Without Absolute Truth being in both, we would not be able to make a jump.

The Truth Matrix is like electricity: it eludes definition and, in the end, is not relevant to how to work with it. Science does not really know what electricity is, but we can make computers. What we are going to do is talk about how the human matrix works: specifically the cause and effect relationships and the flows that occur in it.

Figure 4.2 shows the perceptual lens and what categories of storage are within the human truth matrix. This figure is a rough block diagram that we will use as an introduction to this matrix. We will examine the storages first, and then we will look at the perceptual lens. I am using the word 'storages', for lack of a better term. Another term may be 'areas of accumulation'.

Figure 4.2, Temporal Matrix Storages

From the postulates and theorems, the human matrix must contain Truth. This is Eternally constant and all existence and realities derive from it. Truth is at the very core of our matrix because it includes the laws by which our brain processes information (laws of electricity, neural synapses, etc.), plus, is our connection to God. Because it's at the very heart of our matrix, it is placed at the top of Figure 4.2. It is also a place within our matrix that Absolute reality resides/manifests.

As the postulates and theorems imply, we have Truth and untruth rattling around inside our heads. Untruth is temporal in nature, always changing. It is the area of the unreal within us and part of the original mistake. It is where our fantasies and delusions are within us. It is also the place of imaginary reality. 'Truth' is at the top of Figure 4.2, and 'Untruth' is placed at the bottom of the diagram.

Between Truth and untruth, three categories of storage are placed. The category next to Truth is 'Knowledge'. Knowledge, as it used here, is not something that we intellectually know. Knowledge is something that is or becomes inherent in us. We apply knowledge every time we are walking, we are talking, we are driving, etc. We tend to work from knowledge without thinking. There is no mentation involved. Knowledge has a number of parts in it. One part is permanently hard-wired¹⁸ and is our read only memory, ROM in computer terms. This part of the knowledge is contained in DNA, knowledge relative to the body's functioning -- heart beating, breathing, and organs working. It is dependent upon the information contained in the genetic code.

So, it includes the autonomic system of the body?

Pretty much. This autonomic aspect is a manifestation of Truth within knowledge. The neutral effect of Truth in this storage area allows our continuing existence in the temporal condition. It is the area where actual reality is applicable.

Knowledge has a 'read only memory' and it also has 'programmable read only memory', which is storage of cognitive jumps. These cognitive jumps program knowledge into us. The hardwiring (body stuff) is already in knowledge and we also program things into knowledge.

Let me define a cognitive jump. One example of a major cognitive jump within us is when the light bulb goes on in our head. We start assembling some truths like pieces of a puzzle and then we start putting those puzzle pieces together. When we get enough of these puzzle pieces assembled, we begin to see the whole picture and there is like a click. There is a jump that goes on in our head when we see the whole picture from the pieces.

So, we could have been collecting those pieces over a period of time...

Our whole life, and not knowing it. Once that click happens, that light goes on. As in a jigsaw puzzle analogy, we can see where future data can lie. When other pieces appear, they make sense how they fit. We see it now. This is an example of how knowledge can make a jump in our matrix, like an epiphany, or, "I get it now! It's so simple!" -- that kind of thing. However, it can make subtle jumps too. One of the ways it can subtly jump is in working through repetition of an operation, like learning to walk. We learn that aspect and eventually we repeat it and repeat it until it is eventually programmed into the knowledge cognitively.

Patterning into the brain.

Patterning the knowledge into the brain. One is very subtle and the other one is mind-blowing.

The mind-blowing one reminds me of, who was the scientist whose exclamation whenever he figured out whatever it was, was "Eureka!"

Yes, Archimedes when he figured out displacement volume of a body in his bathtub.

The mind-blowing can carry a radical change in consciousness along with it, like an epiphany. How radical the change in consciousness will be is dependent upon how much Absolute Truth is in the puzzle pieces. The more Absolute Truth that is in the puzzle pieces, the heavier and deeper the consciousness change (ringing) is going to be. I touched upon this briefly when we did the Truth exercises in Labs 1 and 3 (Chapters 1 and 3), and I will go over it in detail later in this chapter.

The cognitive input of Figure 4.2 is important in another way. From the cognitive input into knowledge comes re-cognition. Recognition means to re-cognize or re-know something. It is this input that allows us to interact with the outside world. Without recognition, nothing would be familiar and we would be totally dysfunctional in the physical world.

This knowledge aspect of storage is one of the three major interfaces between Truth and untruth. From Truth, via knowledge, comes all psychic phenomena and spiritual phenomena.

Do psychic and spiritual phenomena fit in with that first kind of cognitive knowledge?

It can, because it's a communication from the One Mind. It's part of a communication from the One Mind to our separate mind. However, we will get into the mechanics or the cause and effect relationships of that in a later chapter.

Knowledge is Truth's representative within the physical body. Within knowledge can be Truth and perceived truth; one is inherent within it and one is programmed in it. What is programmed is totally dependent upon what we choose to perceive.

But what is inherent always comes from the truth?

Yes, truth with a small t.¹⁹

We have Truth's representative in the matrix, which is presented in Figure 4.2 as 'Knowledge'. Untruth's representative in the matrix is 'Memory'. It's what we usually think of as storage in our mind. Memory comes in different forms. It is untruth's representative by being a limited perceptional record of an event from a different temporal reference (past) and does not exist in this temporal reference (now).

Event memory, objective and subjective, begins in storage as singular neural connections or an array of singular neural connections. Over time, that data is contained in part of our matrix array or can be contained in the whole matrix network. It was once thought that the memory of an event would be in one section of the brain. Researchers found out later that memory can be in the whole brain and removing a section they thought relevant did not have any effect on it. That means that the memory is not in just a localized assembly of neural connections. The memory is contained in the whole network as it was put together. This is the neural matrix.

The memory operation is totally neutral in its operation. It's constantly going, constantly recording. We have some control of it, and there is some stuff that goes into our memory over which we have no control. It just goes in, whether we want to remember it or not.

So, we can't control whether our memory is going to store, cause it will, but to some extent, we can control what it might store.

Yes. What we desire it to store. Memory's function is to store, and it's totally neutral. It's going to store, but we can put some stuff in it that we want. This is the place consensual reality tends to reside.

Figure 4.2 shows between Truth and knowledge and untruth and memory, there is the center box, the CPU, or the central processing unit that is labeled 'Programming'. Programming includes our patterns of thinking, our patterns of choices, our conditioned responses, our behavioral patterns, and our attachments through memory. This is where our individual reality presents itself.

Let's focus on behavioral patterns first.

When we are first born, we have knowledge for breathing and heartbeat and organ function and potential to gain more knowledge. So, an aspect of Truth is already in our bodies. These other storages -- 'Programming', 'Memory', and 'Untruth' -- are empty when we are first born; as an empty slate or blackboard. There is no memory, no programming and, at first, there is no untruth that we have programmed into ourselves.

It's similar to a field of grass analogy. When we start using our programming, it is as if we start making paths within the field. As we repeat the different directions we travel, we create a pattern of paths in the field of grass. Once these patterns are made, we tend to keep walking on these paths. We tend not to go off them. Even though the rest of the field is there, we keep following the paths, because we are used to following that path. In addition, we can change our movement through the field at anytime.

Pretty soon, it's an established trail...

Yeah.

Other people might follow it too?

Right. We may have learned it from someone else.

These patterns aren't written in stone, they can be changed at any time?

Yes.

Part of what influences the pattern of thinking comes out of our attachments. More on that later. This 'Programming' box is where our individual reality accumulates. The programming contains the patterns of choices we make from our perceptual lens. It is through the choices, we program our individual matrices.

Figure 4.2 has arrows showing relationships between the elements of the drawing. These arrows indicate direction of influence. There are several inputs, which influence programming, including our choices. Represented by arrows in the drawing, is how knowledge affects our programming, and how memory affects our programming. These two inputs, in addition to choice, influence programming. The cognitive jump indirectly affects programming through knowledge. Memory affects programming when we remember the taste of a food dish -- the memory determines whether you have it again. Untruth, we have chosen, indirectly affects programming through memory.

Many times it is by memory through repetition we learn a language. You choose to repeat words and phrases over and over. Remember the math flash cards and how we used to learn: 2 x 2 = 4? We remember and know -- with the indirect influence of cognitive input from the perceptual lens -- something, when we choose to do something repeatedly. This repetition of information and choices also affects programming.

I don't drive by the street names. When I'm driving and lost, I get to a corner that I've been before, and I remember the corner, and then I remember that I turned left and right. So, I might still go down that same path the rest of my life. Cause that's how I remembered doing it the first time when I got out of a bind of being lost. Probably, sometimes, I go the long way around.

Right. You go the long way around because that's the way you remember it.

From the first patterns of choices we made as a child, we hardwire our adult behavior. Or, using the grass analogy, from the first time we cut the path. This programming begins in the early stages of our childhood. Note that I am trying to demonstrate statistical tendencies. These are generalities about how the system works. Like a block diagram breakdown of an electronics computer -- RAM, ROM, CPU -- you have similar flows within a bio-chemical computer. I am trying to show you general tendencies.

So, it's a flow chart...

Yes, very similar to a flow chart.

The major influences to programming are Truth that comes through knowledge, choice that we make from the perceptual lens, our memory, and untruth through memory. All have an affect on programming. Essentially what we are looking at is something very similar to those circles inside of circles (Figure 4.3).

Figure 4.3, Storage Prioroties

Figure 4.3 shows Truth, which contains everything and is non-exclusive, as the outside circle. The next circle in is knowledge; inside that is programming. Inside programming is your memory. At the very core of your memory is where the untruth accumulates. It cannot exist anywhere else except in memory. Memory involves something that does not exist now anyway. It is pictures and interpretations of a past event. It is not the event itself, nor is that event occurring now.

I guess I visualize Truth as being at the very core...

You see, here we are having a problem with words. It can be depicted at the core. It's at the core by the fact it is all-inclusive, it contains everything. It is both at the core and on the outside and that can be confusing to depict. I depicted it being on the outside. This picture (and the thought construct I am introducing) portrays Truth is like a large circle that holds everything and then goes inward to the one (untruth) that is totally exclusive and does not hold anything.

Note: This drawing is similar to the physical BTRs drawing (Figure 3.3). There are balances and points of tangency in the arrangement. Figure 4.3, as in Figure 3.3, portrays a dynamic situation. Imagine the circles are rotating and points of tangency are changing. This occurs when the matrix is in an operation mode as in learning.

Truth is attached to knowledge. Knowledge is shown attached to programming at a different point than Truth. Programming, memory and untruth are shown attached at other points. The more Truth you have in programming, the more functional you will be with things of the physical world outside of you.

Why is that?

Because we are dealing with the laws by which things work and you work. The more you use them the better you tend to function. The more untruth you have within your programming, the more dysfunctional you will be with what is outside you.

With Figure 4.2, the flow that we have so far is: an event occurs, goes through our perceptual lens, and we make a choice -- true and untrue -- and that choice goes into programming.

Whether it's Truth or untruth...

The choice, which usually includes both Truth and untruth, goes into programming. Truth also can take the scenic route through recognition to knowledge and then affect programming. Please notice the arrow demonstrating how programming output can refocus the perceptual lens, and determine the nature of the choice.

Whenever we make a choice, it'll contain truth, untruth, or both. We also can make a choice to not make a choice. These are the only choices we can make. The next step is to break down the perceptual lens, which determines what is chosen.
