In the present era, most of us cannot help but face the reality of "separation". The "sight" is expanding almost infinitely, while the "body" is constantly rolling itself up. This is the abyss that divides reality and illusion. What the mind’s numbness and indifference are not able to conceal lies beneath the abyss, what we ardently love is simultaneously what we hate. As a result, we experience the feeling of having been stung but also the sense of viscosity, which is hard to perceive.  The sense of viscosity originally can be observed in the relationship between a mother and her child: the body of the newborn baby is separated from mother's body, but the baby's mind is still immersed in her womb. The incomplete matrix causes this contradiction, on the one hand the mind is satisfied in the matrix, but on the other this satisfaction prevents the development of the "body" in the external world. It's like swimming in a tub full of syrup: The original pleasant sensation transforms into a feeling of increasing heaviness. Since the mental world constructed by modern media is turning into an incomplete matrix, the human "sight" immersed in a "light screen" is deluding itself into reaching the so-called freedom, but outside the "light screen", reality is like a needle that incessantly pricks the "body" exposed to the outside.  We have separated from the original matrix. We are building a bigger matrix: as if we were swimming in a tub of syrup, as if we were crawling on the tip of a needle.
