Actually we are the matrix. We are all those wires crossed up.

Consider time. As these mobile organisms, this sentient interface our body has with its situation functions as a sequence of perceptions, in order to navigate, so our experience of time is as the present moving past to future, but the reality is activity and the resulting change turning future to past. Tomorrow becomes yesterday, because the earth turns.

There is no dimension of time, because the past is consumed by the present. Causality and conservation of energy. Cause becomes effect.

Energy is "conserved," because it manifests this presence, creating time, as well as temperature, pressure, color and sound. Time is frequency, events are amplitude.

So the energy/presence goes past to future, because the patterns generated coalesce and dissolve, future to past. Energy drives the wave, while the fluctuations rise and fall.

Consciousness also goes past to future, while the perceptions, emotions and thoughts giving it form and structure go future to past. Though it is the digestive system processing the energy, while the nervous system sorts the information and the circulation system is the feedback and interface between them.

Galaxies are energy radiating out, as structure coalesces in....
