”The Matrix”

Our Minister, Kris Hanna delivers this morning's address, titled "The Matrix" from our Unitarian bushland Chapel. Kris begins with a quote: "We are not here to comfort the afflicted but to afflict the comfortable". Kris reflects on the 1999 Film "The Matrix" in which Artificial Intelligence (AI) controls humanity by creating a comfortable but "fictitious" human "existence" at the expense of Reality. Kris quotes Morpheus, the "God of Dreams" in Greek mythology: "There is a difference between knowing the path and walking the path". The challenge is this: in seeking a richer and fuller life, we need to be like "The Hero" in the Matrix. We need to know the path - and walk it! It was the choice of Buddha and of Jesus! Let it be our choice. It will help us to will live kinder and more compassionate lives!
There is so much more in Kris's address today - so listen on!
