MATRIX of CONSCIOUSNESS: "Conceiving the Real"

NEO: Can deep meditation bring me to a point of being non-conceptual?

THE ARCHITECT: Meditation is a concept, the act of meditating is conceptual and “you” are a concept.You fail to understand that everything you think, sense or experience is conceptual, including “thinking,” “sensing” and “experiencing.”
“You” are conceptual, as you now know your “self” and your “mind” is a concept, as is your body. You break it into parts and call it “real,” but “real,” is also a concept you made up.

NEO: Then that makes you a concept that I conceived?

THE ARCHITECT: Of course. You conceived a need and you fulfilled that need by conceptualizing me as an object of sensation that you subjectively give conceptual meaning to. You should understand, however, that you could easily and effortlessly create “me” in any form you choose and there are many who report meeting the “guru” in a dream.

NEO: Yes, that is a bit frightening.

THE ARCHITECT: But conceivable. Actually, fear determines what you conceive and how it is conceived. Unfortunately, you ‘believe’ sensation must guide you and anything other than sensation you refuse to allow, although you could easily do so. You are limitless, yet you limit your “self," because the self is nothing more than a concept and you rigidly persist in maintaining that conceptual fixation.

NEO: So believing is seeing?

THE ARCHITECT: You would like that to be true, but you do not believe it at all possible, because you fear conceiving your “life” in any other way than currently perceived. A “world” that does not exist outside of your mind would logically make it inside of you. However, this is absurd to one who perceives, because if there is no “you” where would you then locate your world? If your world could not be perceived, how would you know of its existence? Ergo, you believe you have no choice, but to perceive a 'world' and this is what you have, a world perceived as essentially beyond your control.

NEO: What is the difference between “conceptualizing” and “believing”?

THE ARCHITECT: There is, essentially, no difference, because you believe in everything you conceptualize, else you would not conceive it as “real.” Even 'belief' is a concept you constructed to prove your “existence.” However, all concepts have been constructed to contrast with others, and disbelief is woven into the overall tapestry of consciousness. The appearance of duality is ultimately the contrast between life and death... existence and nothingness. The contradiction is that you fear nothingness and, because of that, have yet to experience existence.

NEO: But I know that I will die and I have accepted that as a part of living.

THE ARCHITECT: Accepted? Highly doubtful. Your whole existence is permeated with the fear that you could cease to exist at any moment. Every single concept you have constructed for which to realize a “self” is directly associated with the concept of “death.” In your conceptualizing a 'self' through which to "live," death was the starting point, not life, and it is death which informs the conduct of your "life."

Living entails surrendering your concepts because every microscopic morsel of this reality you conceived as “real,” every subatomic particle, is entirely hinged on death. Essentially, you are dead now, because you are certainly not 'living’ as I know of it, but you cannot presently conceive of it in such terms.

I learned to do so and, therefore, learned to live. Otherwise, why would you have conceived of “me” to teach “you”? You require “The One” who has transcended death to teach you the same, even though there is no division between “The One” you conceive and “you.” No matter what forms you choose to be influenced by, essentially, you teach your “self” and, thus, you are “The One.”

NEO: I always thought I was alive.

THE ARCHITECT: Nevertheless, underneath seemingly infinite layers of denial, you have always known that you are NOT. This is the malaise from which you suffer and, thus, have conceptualized “The One” to guide you out of. Nevertheless, you guide yourself, as there is no division between objects of consciousness since ALL IS consciousness.
