[Music] hello my name is gregg braden and i'd like to welcome you to this all new presentation of the divine matrix bridging time space miracles and belief in the last episode of this program we saw how a 3,000 year old map of time holds the key to what's possible in the world as well as our lives in this episode were across the traditional boundaries that separate physics and biology in the past to reveal the superhuman potential of what is now being recognized as an internal technology and how we can use our inner technology to bypass
to hack the limits of what we believed was possible for us in the past a new school of thought suggests that consciousness informs itself through its creations through its art music books and movies with this idea in mind when we look at the themes of some of the most popular movies of our time what are those movies telling us about ourselves if consciousness is informing us of something that we need to know about ourselves through the things that we create to remind ourselves of ourselves what are those films telling us well examples include the hugely
popular movies like The Matrix for example or avatar or the movie Inception what are films like these saying to us what part of our reality are there reminding us of well if we look at the common themes they'll give us a clue as different as they are from one another each of these movies is suggesting number one that there is a world that exists we simply cannot see from our limited perspective but this world influences our everyday lives number two we're told that we're limited in our lives only until we wake up to the parameters
of this unseen world number three they're telling us that everyone has the ability to do just that to wake up and to transcend the limits of their lives that begin with the events in the world that we can't even see the success of a recent movie the 2017 movie arrival is another beautiful example of what I mean here and it opens the door to precisely what I want to talk about in this episode the theme of the arrival is so powerful maybe one of the most powerful underrated and perhaps hopeful messages seen in modern times
because beyond the theme of the ETS and of the conflict and UFOs and the special effects what the movie is saying to us is that there is a message and the message is very very simple the message says that the language that we use in our everyday lives determines the way our brain connects the neurons and in turn the way that we think and even what we think about and invite you to think about what I just said this movie is suggesting somehow that the words that we use to communicate day in and day out
they're more than simply words but they actually are directly linked to the neurons in our brain now if you've ever thought about the power of just being able to speak I'd like to share with you just how potent that ability is unto itself and that will lead us into the power of the language itself when we speak when we say the words to convey what it is that we're thinking and feeling in our lives what we're really doing is a series of steps that begins with one of the most intimate acts that we could ever
imagine we invite into the deepest recesses of our bodies the breath of life from the world beyond our bodies we breathe in what is called the sacred breath we breathe it into our bodies and we draw it deep into our diaphragm and once that breath is in the diaphragm we begin to massage that breath with our diaphragm with the muscles in our diaphragm in a very precise way we flutter the diaphragm just the right way to now direct the air back from where it just came back through the passages over the muscles in our throat
that vibrate and undulate in just the right way at just the right time to create the acoustic vibrations that allow what we were thinking to be emitted from our body from our mouth back into the air around us as messages that become precisely that the messages that are interpreted through the eardrums of the people that were speaking with Wow when you think about that what masters we are what masters we are at the communication for what our ancestors are telling us is that the language that we are using to convey that sacred acoustic vibration that
language is really where the action is so the English language as well as many others is based upon principles of separation and that separation is reflected in the ideas better than braces separate in Iceland thinking about things like you versus me or them versus us we think about winners and losers this is the language of conflict and war language based in connection creates a very very different kind of experience different kind of thinking a language based in connection is unity thinking this is the language of evolution of community of cooperation so the bottom line to
what I'm saying to you here is that we change the language we change the brain or stated another way change the language and change the way the brain accesses the matrix well these ideas are central to the theme of the arrival and here's what I mean a growing body of scientific evidence now suggests that we do not hold memory in the neurons in our bodies we now know we have neurons in the heart as well as the brain what these discoveries are showing us is that those neurons are not what contain the memory rather than
neurons we can think of as antenna biological antenna soft antenna that tuned to the place in the field in the matrix where our memories actually reside now this idea is more than just a metaphor it's more than just a theory what I'm saying to you is so real that engineers are actually now beginning to design the next generation of computer chips based precisely by this idea when engineers were working with futuristic technologies and we're saying where is our computer technology going to go one of the things they discovered is that the silica that we've used
in the past has limitations for the amount of information that can be stored on that silicon chip so they began looking to nature where in nature can we find the material that could contain the vast amounts of information that we're now beginning to access and they chose water the new chips are actually based upon a single droplet of water now this isn't tap water from the bathroom it's it's highly refined highly structured water compressed into a chip that interfaces with the machine with the computer as we know it today when the researchers began filling these
chips with information what happened was there was so much information that was being stored they said this droplet of water cannot possibly store that amount of information they were pumping tremendous amounts libraries of information into this chip in the mystery was where's the information being stored and they realized that the information was not confined to the droplet water the information was being held in a field that is linked to that drop of water the information who is actually being held in the field that extended beyond the machine itself I know this is a very different
way of thinking but this is how we learn this is how science arrives at the new understandings that lead us to deeper understandings perhaps the deepest truths of our existence so the information doesn't live in our brains it doesn't live in our hearts it doesn't live in ourselves the information is stored in the world around us and because of that because of that the way we access that information plays a very very powerful role in our lives so I'd like to share a story and it's a true story of precisely what the information I just
shared with you means in our lives I live in an artist community a very creative community in northern New Mexico a lot of artists visual artists sculptors musicians writers all come together in the beauty of the high desert of northern New Mexico to create what they create and it's always been that way Georgia O'Keeffe for example Ansel Adams made their home D H Lawrence they all made their homes in this part of the world because it supports this this creative spirit well one of the interesting things that I've seen in my community and if you're
an artist you may have experienced this as well is that a lot of times the artists have a hard time supporting themselves through their creations so they end up with other jobs to make the income that allows them to create the things that they love and the story I'm going to share with you is a story of precisely such an artist but it relates to the way information is stored in the field and what it can mean to a creation so I had a dear friend of mine musician keyboard artist who had just created one
of the most awesomely beautiful Mystikal compelling intriguing pieces of music that I had ever heard and I said well I can't wait until that becomes available well to my musician friend it wasn't ready for the world he said you know I like what I've done he said but it's not quite ready for the world yet he says I'm gonna take it in the studio and do some more work so he would go into the studio he'd spend all of his money honing and refining this masterful piece of work they'd run out of money and then
he would spend six months working in a restaurant or in a bar somewhere saving enough money to go back into the studio so he could work and refine and hone this again and again again this went on for over a year so I had an event speaking event in the Los Angeles area my friend picked me up at the Los Angeles Airport at LAX and we got into the car and I turned on the radio and when I turned on the radio my friend's music was playing on the radio not the words to the song
but the music that he had been working on that he'd been honing and refining for months and he looked at me and he said that's my song and I said well I said that was your song I said the universe tapped you on the shoulder the universe directed you with inspiration you were given the gift of this song to share with the world and you felt that the world wasn't quite ready or maybe the music wasn't ready to share with the world yet but once you anchored your creation in the field it wasn't held in
the cells of your brain or your heart it's in the field around us and what that means it's available for anyone who is tuned in to that place in the field there are other creative people out there creative people who are reaching deep within themselves to create something new to create something a new higher expression of whatever it is and it is their desire to create it is them reaching within themselves to create that actually allows them access to the field where your music was living so you didn't share your music with the universe but
the universe made that was out there and this was a very very powerful lesson for my friend I've had the same experience when it comes to book titles for example I've anchored very very good titles for the books and I said you know I'm not ready to write that book yet two months three months later somebody else I look on Amazon and there is that book title that exact book title and even the same subtitle I never shared with anyone how did that happen it's in the field and the reason I'm sharing this with you
right now I want to speak directly to you is because each of you have a creative impulse and when the universe gives you the gift of a creation and taps you on the shoulder and says here is something to share with the world that inspiration means the world is ready for your creation in that moment and I'm going to invite you please share your gifts with the world because we need what you're creating you never know how your creation is going to influence or impact someone in this world when you share it with them but
the fact that you have that inspiration tells me that the world is ready for whatever it is you've created so please share your creations with the world when we create here's what's happening on a biological level and this is going to be a direct segue into the power of language in our lives the act the act of you creating the act of you reaching deep inside of your being reaching deep to bring something new forward the act of you striving to create and become something more in the next minute than you were one minute ago
that act is the biological trigger that is the impetus for your neurons to begin to wire in a way that will support what it is that you've chosen to create so let me just give you an example of this I'm a musician I'm a guitar player have been all my life since I was eight years old as is when I began when I want to learn how the play like another guitar player one of the most influential guitar players in my life was a man named Michael Hedges Michael Hedges passed a few years ago he
was a Windham Hill artist and I saw him live I saw him play live and I went up the stage and he took the time to talk to me he was very kind to me the very very powerful impact on my life Michael Hedges when I saw him play he blew all of the constructs of the rules of the way I've been taught classically to play guitar he blew those rules right out of the water he gave me the freedom of expression and I respect him and I loved him so much I was so sorry
when he he left this world so when I want to play like Michael Hedges and I listened to his songs again and again at first it's very mechanical but there's a point and maybe you've had this experience if you're trying to learn a language French or Spanish or you're trying to solve mathematic you're going through the motions and all of a sudden one morning you wake up and you're speaking French you're speaking Spanish you're thinking the language of the mathematicians you're thinking the language of Michael Hedges all of a sudden you know where those chord
progressions work when that happens here's what you've done what you've done is the act of you striving to achieve that expression is what triggers the neurons in your body to actually find other neurons to grow and it find other neurons the image you're seeing on your screen right now is a single isolated neuron looking for another neuron that it can hook up with they're very social they want to hook up these neurons and what you're seeing on your screen is what happens to many neurons when you are doing this it is the act of you
striving to create that triggers the neurons to fire the way they fire this has a direct impact and a direct consequence when it comes to language in the words that we use to express ourselves in our lives so one of the first scientific links to what I'm talking about here the link between the language that we use and our biology the way that our neurons fire was made early in the 20th century by a linguist his name was Benjamin Lee Whorf and the ideas the Benjamin Whorf shared in the world of linguistics in the world
of science they were radical for his time what he said is this number one he said that the way that we speak actually influences the way that we think but perhaps even more importantly number two he said the way that we speak influences what we think that our thoughts what we were capable of thinking it are actually linked to the way our neurons are being wired one of the reasons that Worf came to this conclusion is because of the work that he was doing with an indigenous people in North America northern Arizona the Hopi what
he found was that the language of the Hopi when that language was translated into English what he found is to hope you have a very very different way of thinking about us about nature about our relationship to the world and specifically about time so here we are back at time time is the program that allows us to live our lives as we do within the operating system of the divine matrix what Worf found was that in the hopi language they see everything is alive everything is connected everything is present and now [Music] from the Hopi
perspective there are only two realms of possibility one is the realm of things that are manifesting in the present and one is the realm of things that are already manifest the Hopi do not think about time the way that we think about time from their perspective the manifest is everything that has already happened it's everything that we can sense everything that we can experience it's what's already occurred in the world from this perspective the manifesting is what is unfolding in this moment and is actually called in the language the spirit of the breath and includes
whatever is unfolding in the moment now as well as what's possible in the future now these may seem like insignificant changes that I'm talking about between the way that the Hopi think and the way we think if they have very powerful implications let me talk to you about the concept of time in the Hopi language in Hopi there is no time as we know it there is only now and what Worf found when he was exploring the language is that there were no nouns in the Hopi language to specifically refer to the past or the
future everything is present everything is happening right now so for example the idea of a wait when we look at the wave and an ocean we say look at that wave for the Hopi it's impossible to see one wave in the moment in time and call it a wave because it is happening now the word is waving when they are looking at the wave we say look at the wave but we know there are other waves out there the Hopi say that the ocean is waving they actually have a word they say wow la Lata
meaning the plural waving is occurring the plural waving so in a very real sense their language is more accurate than ours describing what the waves are doing although it feels awkward to us because the way we're wired to think so the Hopi are using the same words to describe what is or what has already happened they're describing a quantum possibility there has already become manifest while leaving the future open for other manifestations and other possibilities well we look at the movie the arrival from this perspective it opens up a whole new realm of possibilities because
this is the central theme to the movie in the movie humankind through the language of separation was on the brink of war on the brink of destruction in the modern world because of the weapons we have in the kind of war that was possible and it's precisely at this moment in time when a new language is introduced to the world now in the movie it happened to come from another world and that was the et perspective but there is a growing body of scientific evidence that suggests something very similar to what happened in the arrival
has already happened here on earth but didn't necessarily come from another world in our time it may have been left to us in the past right now there are 23 examples of ancient texts ancient languages that were given to the people of the earth that to this day cannot be translated we don't know what they say and the reason I'm sharing this is because just like the indigenous language of the Hopi is a language of connection and when the Hopi speak in the language of connection it wires their brain to see the world from a
place of connectivity of unity of aliveness of cooperation it's very possible that at least one if not many of the languages that have been left in the past provide precisely the same idea with an alphabet that helps us to find this place of unity and we go back and we think about this growing body of evidence that suggests that consciousness informs itself through its creations the movie arrival is perhaps mirroring to us what has already happened in our past or the potential of what we can embrace in the future simply by recognizing the power of
our language to change our biology such a different way of thinking the power of the words we use again and again to trigger the neurons in our brain and on our heart to find other neurons to wire together so that we become networks of peace networks of cooperation networks of unity rather than the networks of separation competition and conflict that we've achieved in the past through the use of the language that was given to us a very long time ago so maybe it's no accident that the movie arrival has arrived in our world precisely when
it has arrived in our world step back and look at the big picture we're living a time of extremes we're living a time unlike any time in 5,000 years of recorded human history when huge natural cycles that include the cycles of climate the cycles of economy the cycles of human conflict each of them are converging at the same time into an experience that we've never seen before and at the same time that has happened the people of the world are being pushed together across the boundaries that we've known in the past of oceans of mountains
the borders between countries people of the world are coming together and we're learning what it means to live amidst different cultures different religions different ways of thinking different ways of treating men different ways of treating women all this is happening within the context of the big picture of these converging cycles at the very time when our differences have led to the brink of war in the world today at the very instant maybe it's no accident the movie arrival arrived to remind us of the power of the language to change the way we think about ourselves
our relationship to one another and we think about it from that perspective in addition to being an awesome movie and one of my favorites the question that it begs for me and I'm going to invite you to think of the same question if our words are reflection of what's happening in the world in our words are directing our biology in the way our neurons fire what words are you feeding into the field what words are you feeding into the matrix what words are you using to direct your biology and when you become conscious of the
language that you're using from this perspective it opens up a whole new realm of possibilities and that is the power of the divine matrix and the power of understanding our language in the role of our language to direct the possibilities within that matrix through the wisdom preserved in some of our most ancient and cherished indigenous and spiritual traditions we can now think of language as the user interface for the operating system of our lives the divine matrix well in the next episode we'll dive directly into the physics of the matrix itself to discover how to
transform the hurtful creations in our lives and the healthy outcomes of relationship and even healing or in a thank you for joining me for today's program be sure to tune in to our next all new episode of the divine matrix bridging time-space miracles and belief [Music] [Music]
