Book Description
Did you know that we (and all life) are unknowingly imprisoned? That your perception of Reality has little to do with the truth? In these ways, our existence is like the virtual reality in the movie, The Matrix. The differences are more overwhelming, including that our Real Matrix emerged through abiogenesis and evolution processes without intention nor direction (i.e., no sentient machines), and that there is no escape through taking a Red Pill. Welcome to Our Real Matrix proves all this using accepted science taken to its logical conclusion. It then explores the consequences of this truth and the possible paths for how and why to live this life, including the philosophies of Stoicism, Buddhism, and Existentialism. Finally, it introduces a community, the Purplepills Society, that has been established to continue the scientific and philosophical discussion.

Philosophers Explore The Matrix
Author: Christopher Grau
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780195181067
Category : Matrix (Motion picture).
Languages : en
Pages : 366
Book Description
The Matrix trilogy is unique among recent popular films in that it is constructed around important philosophical questions--classic questions which have fascinated philosophers and other thinkers for thousands of years. Editor Christopher Grau here presents a collection of new, intriguing essays about some of the powerful and ancient questions broached by The Matrix and its sequels, written by some of the most prominent and reputable philosophers working today. They provide intelligent, accessible, and thought-provoking examinations of the philosophical issues that support the films. Philosophers Explore The Matrix includes an introduction that surveys the use of philosophical ideas in the film. Topics that the contributors tackle include: how a collaborative dream could differ from hallucination, the difference between the Matrix and the "real" world; why living in the Matrix would be considered "bad"; the similarities between the Matrix and Plato's Cave; the moral status of artificially created beings, whether one can behave immorally in illusory circumstances, and the true nature of free will and responsibility. This volume also includes an appendix of classic philosophical writing on these issues by Plato, Berkeley, Descartes, Putnam, and Nozick. Philosophers Explore The Matrix will fascinate any fan of the films who wants to delve deeper into their themes, as well as any student of philosophy who desires an accessible entry into this challenging and profoundly vital world of ideas.

Matrix Warrior
Author: Jake Horsley
Publisher: Macmillan + ORM
ISBN: 1250096235
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 241
Book Description
Finally comes the ultimate book for all those seeking to know more about the philosophy behind The Matrix and its sequels. Suppose that this world is not what it seems, and that humanity is actually just a food source supplementing a reign of machines. Welcome to the premise behind the world of The Matrix: the movie phenomenon and massive box-office series that has also produced some of film's most intelligent and thoughtful moments in the last ten years. In the Matrix movies, "reality" is just a dreamscape, a representation that six billion points of view agree to agree is "real." So if the only reality we know is a cunning and elaborate façade, what then does that signify for us? Matrix Warrior gives us the means to understand this premise and its implications on our knowledge of self and place. Combining an in-depth examination of the film with philosophical inquiry and the teachings of Castandeda, Jake Horsley has produced in Matrix Warrior a profound yet witty analysis-and all readers need to get "unplugged." "This accessible, entertaining book will be an enjoyable companion for those who want to dig deeper into the movies' rich universe."- Booklist

Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 166
Book Description
If I could teach you one thing, it would be this: you are energy. If I could teach you a second thing, it would be that your energy affects humanity and the planet. Then I would teach you that you are not your wounds. I would walk you through the process of spiritual expansion. I would open your heart to the energy of compassion. I would teach you how to navigate an ego death. I would teach you how to hone in on the vibration of your dream. I would show you everything that I see in the quantum field. I would teach you how to manage your energy so that you can birth your dream. I would ask you to join me in creating compassion on planet earth so that we may end violence and create a planet of peace that lives in harmony with Mother Earth. Welcome to The Matrix Teachings. We have been taught partial truths and fed illusion. It is time to wake up and become the empowered energetic creators that we were born to be. We are all connected energetically, so as we birth our individual dreams, we birth our collective dream. We all want to live on a healthy planet, and we all want violence to end. Who are we? We are compassion-based human beings who are agents of positive change. The Matrix Teachings is your energetic guide for dream birthing. Whether your dream is harmony in your family, healing, or birthing a business, this book explains how to do it. We are far more empowered than we know. We are energy, and we are dream birthers. Join me in the quantum field. I’ll meet you in the matrix. We will dance the dream.

Experience Heaven on Earth
Author: Salantra
Publisher: Experience Heaven on Earth
ISBN: 143271984X
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 297
Book Description
"In the new matrix of life expect the unexpected, as constant change is the only stable condition." The genuine spiritual message in this book transmits a multidimensional perspective, which challenges us to liberate ourselves from archaic paradigms of organized teachings, and support independent thinking. It underscores that as we embrace all that we are within consciousness, we give ourselves an opportunity to experience the grand scope of multidimensional life. For the first time in human history we live as unified consciousness in human embodiment, which enables us to be fully present in the new matrix of life. Given that this union is only a moment away, are you ready to emanate your own resonance of light? "Experience Heaven on Earth: The New Matrix of Life is an experiential book that allows the reader access to their own blueprint. No other book gives step by step guidance and tools, which assist in the acceleration of your personal vibrational frequency - a manual where science and spirituality meet to assist you with your transfiguration. This book places conscious ascension in your hands." - Karen Bissett, South Windsor, CT USA

Introduction to Random Matrices
Author: Giacomo Livan
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319708856
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 122
Book Description
Modern developments of Random Matrix Theory as well as pedagogical approaches to the standard core of the discipline are surprisingly hard to find in a well-organized, readable and user-friendly fashion. This slim and agile book, written in a pedagogical and hands-on style, without sacrificing formal rigor fills this gap. It brings Ph.D. students in Physics, as well as more senior practitioners, through the standard tools and results on random matrices, with an eye on most recent developments that are not usually covered in introductory texts. The focus is mainly on random matrices with real spectrum.The main guiding threads throughout the book are the Gaussian Ensembles. In particular, Wigner’s semicircle law is derived multiple times to illustrate several techniques (e.g., Coulomb gas approach, replica theory).Most chapters are accompanied by Matlab codes (stored in an online repository) to guide readers through the numerical check of most analytical results.
