Important questions to consider given the fact that this illusion is largely by 'careful design' for a greater purpose. Can anyone throw more light on the concepts of 'the Matrix' and 'the potentiator'? I am not sure I understand. Thank you for the observation anyway unity100. Though as you say, god may be 'just is'; but it appears to revel in the play of hide and seek with us with the impishness of a little child.
Confused, you ask solid questions. The "What is intelligent infinity learning through us?" question I can not venture a sufficient reply.
As to "What is intelligent infinity?", I would look to the experience of the mystics. In different languages and using different symbology, they describe reality in terms that are remarkably uniform, all of them attesting to the ineffable nature of the experience.
In my little brain, intelligent infinity is empty, infinitely empty with no boundaries, no beginning, no end, no shape, no form, no space, no time, and no content whatsoever. In fact, if a description is requested, it could probably be described better in negative terms, the "neti, neti" practice.
In that emptiness, the manifested universe arises in the moment. But that arising universe is not other than intelligent infinity. There is no two-ness, there is no many and one. In intelligent infinity, there is only one infinity, an intelligent infinity.
Here is a cherished quote I keep with me from Ken Wilber, my favorite philosopher:
"So the call of the Nondual tradition is this: Abide as Emptiness, embrace all Form. The liberation is in the Emptiness, never in the Form, but Emptiness embraces all forms as a mirror all its objects."
The idea of embracing something as a mirror does with the objects reflected on its surface is a thought which opens me to deep contemplation.
And welcome to the forums! We embrace you as the mirror does its image. : )
