Fig 8: Life for the matrix warrior: the path with a heart<br />

Morpheus enters Thomas's matrix world without ever belonging to it. He instructs Thomas,<br />

appeals to his reason, then makes him an offer he can't refuse, the red pill. Then finally, as<br />

soon as he has been given the go-ahead, he morphs Thomas's world completely. He takes<br />

him down the rabbit hole, out of the 1st attention, straight into the 2nd attention. And there he<br />

shows Thomas/Neo the totality of himself.<br />

Thomas may think he is dreaming when he wakes up in another body, in another world, and<br />

another time, but before long he has no choice but to accept that the reverse is actually the<br />

case. Thomas is not the dreamer but the dream; reality is elsewhere. Morpheus and his crew<br />

sabotage Thomas's life completely. They manipulate him and trick him and corral him; finally,<br />

they ambush him and flush his whole existence down the tubes. They do this because they<br />

have no choice, because they believe him to be the One. Whatever ethical considerations<br />

Thomas might reasonably have expected to apply in this situation, meeting people who<br />

supposedly want to help and guide him, all go out the window. Thomas doesn't realize it until<br />

much later, but the moment he made contact with Morpheus, he entered into the 2nd<br />

attention and his life became something wholly other than what he had been programmed to<br />
