Extreme methods of exiting the Matrix. Exit "from the other side"
I can’t help but mention the extreme or exotic ways to exit the Matrix here. For people who are “awakening” or “awakened,” they are unlikely to have much significance, but knowledge and understanding of these things will greatly facilitate a person’s navigation in the Matrix.
This is the so-called exit “from the other side” or, in other words, getting stuck in the swamp of another, treacherous reality, while still being within the framework of the System. To this category of “outsiders,” I would include criminals and people who have repeatedly broken the law.
– This group also includes people who systematically and in large quantities consume alcohol, drug addicts, and various lovers of “nonsense,” as well as other inadequate or slightly adequate characters: for example, suicides or lovers of extreme sports — on the brink of life and death. Such sports include street racing, risky surfing on rooftops or at the edge of a cliff, extreme jumps from high structures.
– Jumping from TV towers or jumping from a bridge into water from a moving vehicle, surviving in the wild jungles or in permafrost conditions without proper preparation, etc. Only the constant risk to life (or a careless attitude toward it) and truly intense experiences give some meaning to the existence of such characters, which is why they are doomed to eternally challenge the Matrix in an unequal fight that they will never win.
– Next, I divided the people described above into two additional subcategories: “escapees” from the System by their own will and not by their own will: “hardened” alcoholics, criminals, suicides, and so on, down the list.
– Second category: “outsiders” not by their own will are the insane or mentally ill. Those belonging to the latter category have left the Matrix, but from the other side: they seem to have gotten lost in it or simply couldn’t find the exit. These unfortunate individuals are doubly unlucky, as they are not only prisoners of the Matrix and deeply dependent on the System, but also total prisoners of themselves. And getting out of such a “prison” is probably even more difficult than escaping from the Matrix itself.
– Let’s take a closer look for example at suicide. Suicide is essentially a violent “exit from the game,” a self-inflicted pulling of the plug from the mechanism of one’s life. The aforementioned action will inevitably entail certain consequences, “sanctions,” and a powerful reaction from otherworldly forces. What exactly this backlash will consist of and how it will manifest is difficult to say. But it can be definitively stated that we are not the creators of ourselves, that is, our physical double or representative in the Matrix. And even more so, it is not humans who hold the authorship and “patent” for the invention of the human soul and other high-energy substances that are somehow related to humans.
Continuing the chain of our reasoning further, we arrive at the next, quite logical question: what right do we have to personally interrupt the film titled life, even if someone suddenly feels he has ironclad, irrefutable arguments and reasons to take such a desperate step?
– The three main factors that lead to such a tragic end for suicides are: 1) suddenly overwhelming troubles (or long-standing issues that have been building up deep inside, and then this “abscess” bursts); 2) extremely negative emotions that fuel and intensify that state; 3) the unwillingness or inability to see the “light at the end of the tunnel.” That is, suicides are people who are unable to change and shape their own fate, so they shift the responsibility for everything happening in their lives onto anyone and anything: circumstances, politicians, neighbors, higher powers, bad weather, etc., but never onto themselves. I am convinced that this is precisely their main problem and misfortune.
– An interesting question was once posed to me and the entire audience by one of my former university professors. She asked the students the following: are those who commit suicide strong people or weaklings? The question is complex, and it cannot be answered definitively. On the one hand, that people are certainly weak individuals because they could not withstand the pressure of the System, bent under the circumstances, and the ship of their life took a hit, subsequently ran aground, or even sank altogether.
On the other hand, to dare to take such an action, one needs either extraordinary courage or equally extraordinary foolishness. Essentially, all extreme “Matrix escapees,” not just the suicides, are characterized by weak will and disbelief in their own abilities.
