All things already are in some degree of manifestation, the problem is that you see only a tiny fraction of this. Why?
What the computer model misses is that what we're talking about--in terms of awakening, mechanisms thereto, etc.--is not accumulation of facts. We're talking about consciousness. The distinction between mere accumulation, and manipulation, of information and the developement of consciousness is that, as one progresses in consciousness, one's entire system of perception of facts , their hierarchical structure, meaning and such, becomes completely transformed at each major turn in the road.
Example: When the heart is fully entered into, one's entire relationship with self (past self, present self and future self) and with others (now seen as elements of self) is transformed. The lower chakras become sacralized and one begins living, not with the survival (red) chakra as the psychological basis for self-identification, but with the heart as the basis for and primary locus of consciousness. One's experience of consciousness is thus radically transformed and the importance of "information," such as you are inquiring about, shrinks markedly.
The key feature--the "heart"--of all this is that we are presented endless opportunities to become progressively more conscious. More conscious of what? Of what already is. That which we are.
