Do not try to bend the spoon that's impossible, instead only try to realize the truth.
Then you will see that is not the spoon that bends, only yourself

Neo opens "Simulacra and Simulation" to the chapter "On nihilism," which has curiously been printed in the middle of the book, whereas really it is the last chapter of Baudrillard's actual book. And, also curiously, the chapter starts on the left-hand page, not the right-hand page

The Left hand not the right -

INT. ROOM OF POTENTIALS (MATRIX) - DAY
As they enter the Oracle's apartment, you see a rack of collectable spoons on the wall.
The music playing in the background is _I'm Beginning to See the Light by Duke Ellington.
Neo enters and finally understands the attention given to his age. The Potentials are all little children.
The room feels at once like a Buddhist temple and a kindergarten class. The children's heads are either shaved or thick with dreadlocks. Some are playing, others meditating or practicing their gift.
Neo watches a little girl levitate wooden alphabet blocks. A skinny BOY holds a SPOON which sways like a blade of grass as he bends it with his mind.
Neo crosses to him, sits.
The Boy smiles as Neo picks up a spoon and tries to imitate him. Despite his best efforts, Neo cannot make it bend.
___________
SPOON BOY
Do not try to bend the spoon that's impossible, instead only try to realize the truth.
Neo watches as it curls into a knot.
NEO
What truth ?
SPOON BOY
There is no spoon !
NEO
There is no spoon ?
SPOON BOY
Then you will see that is not the spoon that bends, only yourself.
Neo nods, again holding up his spoon.
He concentrates. The spoon begins to bend just as the Priestess touches his shoulder.
PRIESTESS
The Oracle will see you now.
Spoon Boy smiles. -

Fast forward to the scene where Morpheus is talking to Neo on the phone in Neo's appartment, and Morpheus says "This line is tapped, so I must be brief." As Morpheus is speaking, immediately pause the movie as you observe the camera focusing in on Neo's desk. Look at the the small package on Neo's desk. Notice that the writing on the label on the left side of the package says "Oscar Wachowski." -
Really?...hmm seems everything in the Matrix has some backgroundOriginally posted by laurence82:Actually this story i seen b4 in Buddhist books...
The Delphic Oracle/Sybil of the Sistine Chapel has three primary colors: green top, orange skirt, blue sash. The Oracle's kitchen also has these colors: green countertops and orange cabinets.
Cypher is called "Mr. Reagan" by Smith. Cypher says "I don't wanna remember nothing." Ronald Reagan notoriously said "I don't remember" during the Iran-Contra scandal (covert operations.) Cypher says, "I wanna be rich, you know, someone important. Like an actor." Ronald Reagan was an actor before he was President. Cypher wishes to live a life of material decadence. Ronald Reagan presided over an era remembered for decadence, greed, and deceit.
In the Oracle's waiting room, the television is showing _Night of the Lepus_ (1972). "Lepus" means rabbit in Latin and also the movie has references to "follow the white rabbit". -

Coincidentally (or not), Matrix, Trinity, Morpheus, 303 and 101 are all models of music synthesizer (from various manufacturers).
All of the good guys (Morpheus, Trinty, Neo, etc.) in the movie wear round or oval sunglasses. All of the bad guys (the agents, Cypher) wear square or rectangular sunglasses.
Nebuchadnezzar was a biblical Babylonian king who was instructed by god in dreams to destroy the inhabitants of Jerusalem because they worshipped false prophets.
When Switch says to Neo, "We don't have time for 20 questions," Neo had just asked approximately his 20th question so far in the movie.
Check out the room numbers for Trinity and Neo. When the cops bust in on Trinity in the opening scene the number is 303 ("trinity," 3) and since Neo is The One the number of his apartment is 101. -
You no wanting to bend the spoon and find the truth?Originally posted by Kismet:I just watched it for the fight scenes and special effects...

What is the truth?Originally posted by LeftBallBigger:You no wanting to bend the spoon and find the truth?
If you truly believe in something, whether logical or not, that becomes the truth for you. And it will remain the truth until you are convinced otherwise that it is not the truth. That's the whole truth. Really. If you believe whatever I just said about the truth ...
If you're going to bend the spoon, you might as well bend the fork too.
And the knife. And everything else in the kitchen.
Afterwhich when everything is bent, you will ask yourself, why don't I straighten the spoon, and the fork, and the knife ...
Sorry, I took the red pill just now ...
My doctor says it will help me get well .... -
Pls..bend anything u like, except urself over.....

Originally posted by laurence82:Pls..bend anything u like, except urself over.....

Hmm, is LBB trying to tell us something when he tells us to bend the spoon and find out the truth ??? wahahaha ... -
When you put 2 pieces of toast in the toaster, concentrate on the LEFT slot.. you will arrive when the LEFT piece of toast pops out firstOriginally posted by Kismet:Hmm, is LBB trying to tell us something when he tells us to bend the spoon and find out the truth ??? wahahaha ...
You might need some time to master this..its called astral toast projection. -

If you turn the toaster 180 degrees, then the original left side, or what you believe to be the left side of the toaster becomes ... the right side !!!
So which side is the real left side ???
Again, I reiterate ... it is only true to you if you believe that it is true ... -
Muahaha..good one...Originally posted by Kismet:Wait ...

If the toaster isn't real, then probably the toast isn't real too.
And I might not be real too.
Just like this this message ...
LBB, WAKE UP, TIME FOR YOUR RED PILL ... -
Wait.
If there's no spoon...
Means there's no fork, knife as well.
Means there's no microwave, oven, fridge..
Meaning no TV, fans, air-con, computer...
Then what am i typing on??
No wait, i'm real... or am i? -
remind me of one scene in southpark..
the episode where the gang tries to earn money by stealing the money parents give their child for their loose tooth..
kyle starting reading science books and crap along the same line too...
In anyway, the world a matrix.... -
What is real anyway?
In the context of the universe we, the toast and the toaster might not exist as we might not be in the same realm as the others, they say theres no life on Mars from the photos but that means nothing..'they' might be there in another realm.
I do agree that we all live in a matrix, we really do.......
