Gregg Braden describes in his latest book the existence of an energy field (or the Divine Matrix) or a place where all things begin. It is a place of pure energy that is the “quantum incubator” for reality. It is this matrix that connects us to everyone and everything, and through which we bring possibilities into existence (co-creating our reality through imagination, prayer, judgment, expectation, etc.).

This matrix provides a container for everything that happens between the world within us and the one outside our bodies.

By comparison, in the cosmology of shamanic energy, there is a similar concept of energy potential. The Q’ero (of Peru) call it “illya” or energy that has been unformed and carries all the potential or possibility for what it might become.

Why would we care about this Divine Matrix? It is this matrix that connects us to everyone and everything, and through which we bring possibilities into existence (co-creating our reality through imagination, prayer, judgement, expectation, etc.). That is if we accept this divine incubator, then we must also consider that we are contributors to this creation, not passive observers. In fact, according to quantum physics, the act of observation is an act of creation. And this is where life gets interesting. Wouldn’t you rather be a part of what will become, than merely a witness? Wouldn’t you rather create your own reality of what you want, than live the reality that someone else created for you?

Braden explains with scientific detail so common of his works. Even without a physics background, these complex concepts are easy to understand. He concludes “20 Keys to Consciousness” where he outlines how to use the information to create the life you want to live. You may want to type these up, print them out, and hang them somewhere that you’ll see them everyday.
