According to Keanu Reeves, a war is being waged that will shape the future of human existence and the world we leave for our children is "silently optimistic" about the future because "humanity is showing signs of breaking free from the matrix.
"The human race has been enslaved for thousands of years," Keanu Reeves said as he recorded a spot in the Mojave Desert, explaining that "we have been kept in a mental prison by dark elites and secret societies that have done everything they can to repress us and prevent us from reaching our potential.
But the Matrix star, who was filming scenes from the Squarespace Super Bowl commercial, says that the real-world matrix is beginning to crack.
"Humanity is showing signs of breaking free from the matrix. What a time to be alive! We are living in exciting times."
Explaining that he has been studying ancient texts, including Vedanta and Upanishads, and learning about the nature of reality, Keanu said:
Yes, of course, there are many people who are only interested in keeping up with the Kardashians, but a significant chunk of the population has woken up. The most important thing is that there is now a war going on between our supreme teachers and those who wish to liberate us.
What's the matrix?
Keanu Reeves says that the matrix is a holographic universe projected by those who want to control us. Humanity has been repressed and controlled in this way for millennia. We believe that it is real, but in reality it is only a film that is reproduced in the collective consciousness, which presents itself as "reality".
Keanu Reeves is not alone in believing that humanity has been living in a matrix for thousands of years.
Some of the world's richest and most influential people are convinced that we live in a computer simulation. At least two of Silicon Valley's technology billionaires are investing money in efforts to get humans out of the simulation they think we're living in.
Elon Musk believes the odds of us not living in a matrix-type computer simulation are "billions to one."
"Many people in Silicon Valley have become obsessed with the simulation hypothesis, the argument that what we experience as reality is in fact made on a computer," writes Tad Friend of The New Yorker.
"Two billionaire tech millionaires have gone so far as to secretly involve scientists to work on getting us out of the simulation."
But Keanu Reeves believes the kids in Silicon Valley are doing something wrong by trying to break free from the matrix. He has a tip for tech billionaires.
Put your wallets back in your pockets. This has nothing to do with money or computers. It's a spiritual change that must take place, not a hack."
According to Keanu, that spiritual change is taking place. People are tired of unnecessary wars, totalitarian leadership and authoritarian control. People are waking up to what is really important in life.
"I think people were really scared that the world would end, you know, very recently. I just felt like things had gotten out of control. We lost all hope of being able to save ourselves from the dark forces of the world. But just open your eyes for a minute and look around at what's happening. It's amazing. People like Trump are lifting the veil in an amazing web of interconnected manipulation. Love it or hate it, it is allowing humanity to wake up from its dream and see that the very few people, the very secret societies, the bona fide New World Order, are actively controlling our lives and repressing our true ability. But people are slowly waking up. It is time to regain our infinite power and open the doors of the mental prison that have motivated us to build ourselves. It's not an easy thing to do, but it's time to walk into the light of freedom."
