This book is dedicated to Her Holiness Sai Maa. Without your love and guidance through the years, I would not be who I am today, and this book would not exist.

The Power of the Matrix

I am the master of my fate. I am the captain of my soul.

WILLIAM ERNEST HE NLEY,
IN INV ICTUS

W hen I ask people to identify the most important relationship with the greatest impact on their lives, almost everyone points to someone they love deeply, such as a child, spouse, parent, mentor, or best friend. It always comes as a shock when I tell them that their answer is wrong. The truth is that the most important relationship, with the most profound impact on our lives, is the relationship we have with our self.

It is what lives inside our mind, emotions, body, and spirit that creates the matrix of our inner experience. In turn, that inner matrix determines how we process and define our world. We bring our mind, emotions, body, and spirit to the relationships we have with others, and this inner matrix dictates our ability or inability to thrive in those relationships. Through the lens of our mind, emotions, body, and spirit, we process, define, and influence everything that shows up in our lives.

So what does it mean to be in a relationship with our inner matrix? Most of us assume that because we eat, live, and breathe, we understand who we are and know how to be in the world. Few of us pause to consider that appropriate training and education are required if we wish to do anything with excellence in this life. Would you allow a neurosurgeon to operate on your brain if she had not been trained? Would you hire a mechanic to fix your car if he had never repaired a car? Would you hire an attorney who had never been to law school to represent you in court? We can easily imagine that the outcome of any of these situations would be potentially disas trous.

Most of us do not seek to train our inner matrix despite the fact that it defines our quality of life and the level of success we achieve. We simply do not realize that we can train all aspects of our being, instead believing we are born the way we are. We believe that we either have an inner matrix that creates peace, well-being, and success in life, or we dont. However, the truth is that if we are taught the skills and tools to master our inner matrix, we can shift and change our mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual state to align with any vision we have for our lives. When we learn how to align our inner matrix with any vision we choose, in that moment, our vision instantly becomes our reality. If we wish to create a life of love, peace, and joy, we can do so. All we truly need is to master the skills necessary to be in this world in a state of excellence. When we engage such training, we can begin to consciously evolve our inner matrix in a way that serves us to reach our highest potential in life.

Almost all of us have an area in our lives that is not functioning on an optimal level or where some amount of pain and suffering shows up. Perhaps we have a relationship where conflict is present. It may be a job where we believe our skills are not being appropriately utilized. Our finances may be a source of struggle from time to time. Even when all is right in the world, we may just have a sense that a deeper, more fulfilling experience is pos sible.

No matter what level we are functioning on, most of us have an intuitive knowing that we can develop ourselves beyond our current state. For many of us, we have just not found the tools we were looking for to create the life we know is possible. The good news is that this book provides the opportunity to gain practical and easy-to-apply tools that can facilitate true transformation in any aspect of life. By learning to shift the mind, emotions, physical body, and spirit we simply gain the power to change every experience we have in this world.

If our mind is disciplined, our emotions are peaceful, and our physicality is strong, we will have one experience of the world. If our mind is chaotic, our emotions are frenzied, and our physical body is weak, our experience of that exact same world will be radically different. Although we have long recognized that we can strengthen a weak human body, not everyone understands that we can train all aspects of our internal life, including the mind, emotions, physical body, and spirit. When we change these inner aspects, the world interacts with us differently. Therefore, if we wish to shape our relationships with family, friends, coworkers, humanity, and the world at large, the first place that we must look is inside ours elves.

When we were born, very few of us received an instruction manual for our inner matrix. We were not trained to look inside and optimize our state of being. We were not educated about the impact our internal state of being has on the quality of experiences we create in this world. Instead, the random set of experiences we encountered in this life conditioned our mind, emotions, and physical bodies to react to our environment in certain specific ways. As a result, we operate in our lives without fully understanding who we are or how we function. We also fail to grasp the true extent of the influence we have on the world around us, as well as the influence the world has on us.

In order to truly thrive in our lives, we must first understand how we work, and to do that we must build a relationship with our inner matrix. Having gained this understanding, we can then execute the necessary changes to eliminate our current areas of suffering, define our dreams and visions, and create an extraordinary life. Without such education and training, our lives become chaotic and painful. We are left to wonder how we ended up in a place of mental, emotional, and physical turmoil, without hope for e scape.
