Yin & Yang of the MATRIX

Awakening to and Transformation of the MATRIX
The original symbol for Yin and Yang was a farmer bent over tending his crop (like the picture above). When the farmer bends over his cool shadow lies over the plant nurturing it. When he stands back up the sun warms the plant and stimulates growth.
The Yin and Yang represents two COMPLEMENTARY forces in the Cosmos. The Yin is the feminine principle. Yin is nurturing, cool, soft and holds the seed of life. Yang is the masculine principle. Yang is protective, warm, firm and protects the seed of life.
There are 12 major meridians in the body. 6 are feminine and 6 are masculine. There are 3 Yin meridians that run inside the arms and 3 Yin meridians that run inside the legs. The 6 Yang meridians run on the outside of the arms and legs protecting the feminine. I find that very interesting. There is an Auyrvedic saying, “The Universe is as close as the veins in your neck.” In other words the patterns of the Universe (one song) repeat over and over. By studying one thing you can begin to understand it all.
Mistakenly, some look at the Yin and Yang and say it represents duality…good and bad. This is not true! This leads people to think that we need dark to have light…bad to understand good…illness to be healthy. What most people call duality. FALSE, FALSE and FALSE!!!
Yin and Yang complement one another, and are a small representation of the two main forces/aspects that ALL life springs from. They are two forces of one substance. Looking at them as whole and they represent God aka the Natural Order of Things aka Nature aka the TAO. It is when we stray from God/the TAO that a 2nd pseudo force is generated. That 2nd false force is EVIL, but it is not a life giving force. It lives outside of a balanced mind, body, heart, system and life. If you turn the word EVIL around backwards it spells LIVE, which gives a hint to what EVIL is all about. EVIL is generated when we LIVE backwards, in other words when we live out of balance with Yin & Yang/God/the TAO.
Since evil arises from being disconnected from Source/God it has no true power. EVIL has to feed off of others. Let’s use AC/DC as an example. Not the group, even though an AC current is a sure fire “Highway to Hell.” AC means Alternating Current and DC means Direct Current. When we are disconnected from God/Spirit/TAO (our DC) we have to rely on AC to feed us, which means we have to rely on other people to give us energy. The AC is never constant and is always fluctuating. People’s moods are always changing. You can’t rely on other people to be fed. If you do, you will be let down. BUT if you know how to control people, you have a pretty reliable reservoir to draw from. More on this later!
Duality only resides outside a connection with God/the TAO.
Duality: Mankind and God are disconnected. 1 (human) + 1 (God) = 2 / Separation
Unity: Mankind and God are connected. No separate parts = 1 / Oneness
This separation is a mental state, as there is no real physical way to be separated from God. Nothing can live outside of God/the Natural Order of things forever, so a false system of Karma based on a pseudo force is created to bring people back to God/Spirit/TAO.
The problem with the false system of Karma is that it is never ending. You can’t get back to God by following that path to the end. You have to wake up and see what is going, which I explained above, and disconnect from it.
There is a popular Zen say that goes like this, “Don’t mistake the finger pointing at the moon for the moon.” My translation is, “Don’t get caught up in the false system pointing the way. The finger pointing at the moon will NEVER touch the moon. Eventually you have to take your eyes off the finger and place them on the moon. Then the real truth will begin to reveal itself!"
