 * We cannot beginning to talk about culture to culture conversation before
   investigating what culture really is. A culture is a gameworld that answers
   the following questions: where do we come from? what are we doing here? where
   are we going? what does it mean to be human? We human beings do not interact
   with the world as it is. We interact with the world through gameworlds,
   including our culture. A culture is the unfolding of one story answering that
   set of questions chosen among an unlimited number of possible stories.
   
   A CULTURE, A GAMEWORLD, A FANTASYWORLD
   
   Culture is a Gameworld. Perhaps one of the most treacherous and lethal of
   gameworlds that humans ever invented.
   
    
   
   Culture is a treacherous gameworld because we are taught how to play in our
   local culture before we are even out of our mother's belly, and what we are
   taught about culture leaves out the bit that culture is a completely
   arbitrary gameworld - in other words, Bullshit. Instead we are taught to give
   our Center and Authority away to our culture and its traditions. We are
   taught to believe that our culture is true and the best thing human beings
   ever invented, and that our culture and its flag must be defended with our
   life, instead of being taught 'cultural relativity' (per Kurt Vonnegut Jr.)
   that culture is a gameworld no more true than any other culture or gameworld.
   
    
   
   A culture cannot be good or bad. A culture is a culture. It is a set of
   arbitrary beliefs and traditions. A culture has a certain level of
   responsibility. A culture also has very real consequences.
   
    
   
   An unconscious culture does not know or teach its constituents that it is
   merely an arbitrary belief system that has no connection whatsoever to the
   Truth. It does not know it is bullshit. Bullshit is not good or bad. However,
   the belief that our bullshit is true has lethal consequences. For example,
   modern culture or western civilization does not consider itself as a culture,
   the others over there have cultures, sometimes even an interesting or a funny
   culture. Western civilization, a few hundred year old construct, considers
   itself as having found the best answer for how to go about life, and it
   relates to other culture as a failed attempt at being modernized. This belief
   has been strengthened by the idea that 'if I can kill you, my ways must be
   better than yours'. European people invaded the American, African and Asian
   continents killing off unimaginable numbers of local populations in order
   take their land and resources. In that way, culture can be lethal because, as
   was explicitly stated in most indigenous Cultures - people from the 'outside'
   are understood to be 'the edible ones'. Most cultures are unconscious.
   
    
   
   A conscious culture on the other hand, is conscious of itself. It can look at
   itself and be amazed about the amount of bullshit that it really is. The
   people have become aware of cultural relativity. They have the ability to be
   comfortable in the realization that, while their own culture make sense in
   their own mind, it may appear quite ridiculous to someone else and vice
   versa, and that is perfectly okay. This opens the possibility of having a
   respectful and curious culture-to-culture conversation. The basis of such
   conversation creates the possibility of an exchange of knowings, skills,
   techniques, and initiatory processes.
   
    
   
   People in an unconscious culture live in a fantasy world.
   
   People in a conscious culture live in a Gameworld.
   
    
   
   Want to more about gameworlds? Here's the DOORWAY TO GAMEWOLRD
   
   CREATING YOUR OWN CULTURE
   
   The moment you are in the presence of the distinction, in all of your fives
   bodies, that a culture is arbitrary, you have come to and stayed at the edge
   of your own birth culture. Congratulations! You have questioned, inquired,
   and hacked your way out of your culture on your journey to the edge.
   
    
   
   You can now turn around and look at your own birth culture. This is one of
   the most important and devastating initiatory process. You will automatically
   enter a liquid state when that realization sinks in (Maybe you can remember
   when that realization sank in). Probably, the first feelings you will
   experience are anger (or mixed emotions like disgust or revolt or guilt or
   shame). The anger is absolutely appropriate. The anger comes from the
   experiential distinction that you built your life to this point on the lie
   that what you were taught is the way it goes. Nothing else was possible or
   even imaginable. You made decisions, plans, interacted with people, did jobs,
   and chose to do this or that based on what your culture valued as important,
   noble, and right and also what your culture considered taboos, condemnable
   and wrong. When you discover that none of this is true or real but simply the
   unfolding of one particular story, you might realize that the choices that
   you've made didn't actually come from your own authority, and instead from
   your unconscious need to conform to the authority of the culture, of the
   status quo. The consequence of playing in an unconscious cultural gameworld
   is that you are a sheep and a pawn in someone else game. You don't get to
   truly be who you want to be and make each decision with full responsibility
   for it.
   
    
   
   The second feeling that most probably comes a few seconds after the anger is
   fear. This is how it goes because if you make it all the way to the edgo of
   your birth culture and look outside of the bubble, what do you see? Nothing
   ... and everything! You are like a chicken who just hatched out of your egg.
   The world before that was limited to the comfortable, cosy and warm
   fantasyworld where the rules were determined by somebody else who you could
   blame for your unhappiness is gone. You are standing in front of the great
   unknown territory of the natural and free adult playground.
   
    
   
   However, your first encounter with that space can be very uncomfortable,
   maybe even overwhelming, if you do not have the clarity that fear is one of
   the four feelings. Fear is fear. Fear is not good or bad. Fear is not a
   design error of the human structure. Fear is appropriate, needed and wanted
   for you to play in adulthood. The most common fear when standing at the edge
   is that there is no path, you don't know how it goes, you don't know where to
   go, or where the path leads.
   
    
   
   Correct, standing at the edge of nothingness, the only step you can know is
   the one right in front of you. By taking the next step, you become a bridge
   builder. Yay!
   
    
   
   The completion of the alchemical transformation of the initiatory process of
   getting out of your birth culture will happen when you can grieve the old
   identity that you created to match your birth culture. Creating that
   identity, called your Box, was necessary and appropriate because without it
   you would not have survived. And yet, that identity was made for you to
   survive rather than to live your full potential. With the sadness you can
   grieve what you have sacrificed.
   
    
   
   Then comes the Joy. You gain clarity that the new distinction - your culture
   is just one of the possible gameworld - gives you power. You now have access
   to the power to create your culture - the gameworld you want to live in.
   Indeed, if a culture is simply a set of beliefs and distinctions, then what
   is stopping you from creating your own?
   
    
   
   No one can do it for you. And more importantly, no one can stop you from
   doing it.
   
    
   
   It is possible that you will find yourself jumping around those feelings for
   a time while the new distinctions sink in on different levels in your five
   bodies.
   
    
   
   Turned on? For more of this, enter the DOORWAY TO GAMEWORLD BUILDING
   
   BELIEFS AND DISTINCTIONS
   
   Here is a distinction between beliefs and distinctions.
   
    
   
   Anybody can believe anything about anything. A Belief is an Is-Glued
   formulation that has no connection to reality. Beliefs are defended not by
   experience but by a positionality such as “I’m right. You’re wrong.”
   Positionality excludes. In other words, a particular belief can be supported
   only if all contradictory beliefs are destroyed. The automatic and
   unavoidable result of positionality is war. This is how human history has
   gone.
   
    
   
   A Distinction, on the other hand, is a Declaration of difference that can
   change who you are. When you get a distinction, it reorders your energetic
   body in such a way that you can differentiate something which you could not
   differentiate before. You can experientially discern more than you could
   before.
   
    
   
   For example, if you believe that your culture is different from another
   culture, then your culture is right and they are wrong. However, when you
   carry the distinction that your culture is different from some else's
   culture, it is an experience. You don't have to defend yourself or attack the
   person across from you and you can be connected to each other without
   superiority or inferiority.

 * A FEW POSSIBILITIES OF CULTURES.
   
   EXTREMELY SIMPLIFIED CULTURAL DESCRIPTION.
   
   MODERN CULTURE
   
   
   
   Modern, industrialized, westernized culture was born less than 200 years ago.
   Modern culture provides you with a linear life plan that goes something like
   this: you are born from one father and one mother into a nuclear family. You
   go to school starting at age 4 or 5, all the way to age 18. At 18, you
   automatically become an adult and receive the right to drink, smoke, drive,
   and travel without your parents' authorization. Then, in order to get a
   'good' job, you go to university for another 3 to 5 years. After that, you
   maybe get a good job. You find a partner, buy a house, have children, a dog
   and a second holiday house. Hopefully you will retire.. and then you die.
   
   SNG'OI CULTURE (ABORIGINAL, MALAYSIA)
   
   
   
   In the Sng'oi culture, the aboriginals of Malaysia, you live in tribes. You
   sleep in the same hut with the people of your tribe. You wake up in the
   morning and discuss your dreams and the dreams of others. The day is
   dedicated to one of the dream. You eat and talk. Every 2 or 3 years, the
   tribe moves to another place in the forest.
   
   TIBETAN BUDDHIST (NEPAL, INDIA, TIBET)
   
   
   
   At the center of the Tibetan Buddhist gameworld is the search of the nature
   of existence. The search happens through meditation, Puja and singing, and
   the creation and destruction of sand mandala. You are educated in the art of
   reasoning and debating. You can go on retreat for days, months or years in
   isolation or in group.

 * CULTURE TO CULTURE INTERVIEW
   
   
   
   Here is a fine example of a Culture To Culture Conversation during and
   Interview between two Gameworlds.
   
   Watch how many times Maria Diaz says, "No," and then continues the
   conversation.
   
   "What I want to say about that is..."

 * A CONVERSATION
   
   
   
   The diversity of culture is a source of wonder and of strength. Each culture
   is a facet of humanity. Each of us has a unique way of interacting with the
   world, deciding what is important and what is not. The paradigm of modern
   culture, to makes us all the same in the way we interact with the world, is
   leading us and Planet Earth into total destruction. It is maybe one of the
   biggest challenges we are faced with today to revive the flame of diversity
   with respect, humility, and clarity.
   
   
   The way for cultures to survive today - whether indigenous or next cultures -
   is not in isolating themselves, rather in inviting a deeper conversation
   between them where the aim is not to create a homogeneous and generic model.
   The aim is instead to stimulate evolution and transformation in each and
   every one of them. A culture survives if it can transform in the face of
   challenges.
   
   
   Conversing between your culture and someone else's culture is a skill that we
   have not been taught in our classrooms for the majority of us who have been
   to school. There are multiple traps in that practice. What we have been
   taught instead of cultural relativity is cultural myopia where modern culture
   is not a just another culture, it is the most advanced and intelligent way
   human beings can relate to each other and the Earth. With that belief in us,
   in a culture to culture conversation, we rapidly become either defensive or
   offensive about our own culture.
   
   
   If you have reached the edge of your birth culture, if you've even stepped
   out of it, another enemy is waiting beyond the lines: being adaptive to your
   birth culture as a habit of fitting in with your friends and family. When
   it's time to gather with your family for Christmas, a Birthday or a Wedding,
   old habits take over and you become adaptive to a culture that is not your
   own.
   
   
   My experience is that with a solid dose of curiosity, your center, grounding
   cord, bubble and your sword of clarity pulled out, you can have the most
   marvelous, challenging and transformational conversations from your cultural
   bubble to someone else's cultural bubble.
   
   
   Culture to culture conversation is a new skill, and as new skills go, it
   needs practice.
   
    
   
   HAVE FUN!
   
   BEING OFFENSIVE
   
   Being offensive about your culture can be subtle. For example, a western NGOs
   settling in a 'third world' country with good intention wanting to "help save
   the world" is one of the most offensive and arrogant way to connect between
   cultures. The basis of that conversation is that one of the parties knows how
   to save the other one, because the other one obviously could not have done it
   themselves. The offer is one of creating Low Drama - the NGO being the
   rescuer, the people in the other country being the victim. The persecutor is
   often the people's government or colonizers.
   
    
   
   This is the most widespread form of communication between people from modern
   culture and those from other cultures. Building schools, sending notebooks,
   pens and text books to countries in Africa or Asia is a new form of
   colonization by spreading the economic, industrial and education system
   across borders. Globalisation does not have to look like that. There are a
   multitude of possibilities for a globalized, connected world.
   
   BEING DEFENSIVE
   
   Your birth culture is inculcated in you from the moment of conception. The
   choice you have about it is to accept your birth culture or to die. After
   accepting, you then create your identity, your Box, that fits into your birth
   culture in its unique way. Even the rebelious children, teenagers or people
   in grown-up bodies are a necessary part of a culture. You can check out the
   18 standards boxes to find out which identity you have created for yourself
   to survive in modern culture.
   
    
   
   Defending can take the form of making fun of other ways of doing or behaving.
   This excludes the possibility of learning something different. You can notice
   that someone is or yourself are defending their culture when they say: "
   their culture than to face the possibility of dying by questioning it. Wars
   are set up on this basic premise.
   
    
   
   Defending can take the form of making fun of other ways of doing or behaving.
   This excludes the possibility of learning something different. You can notice
   that someone is, or you are, defending their culture when they say: "This is
   who I am", "I do things like that since I can remember", "Leave me alone, I
   do it like I want to".
   
   BEING ADAPTIVE
   
   Being adaptive is a survival behavior of giving your center away to authority
   figures. It comes from the thought 'If I don't follow, I will die'. Most
   cultures imply that to survive you have to use the ways of the culture.
   Anything else is alien and dangerous for your survival. You were bread to be
   adaptive to your birth culture.
   
    
   
   People from the non-westernized world have become adaptive to modern culture
   and the western way of life as it has been brought to them as the paramount
   of human existence. Without questioning the slogan of success, achievement,
   wealth and money. You are taught to give your center away to the ones who
   promise you heaven on Earth: religion, capitalism, money, career, ...
   
   A NEW OPTION: BEING CURIOUS
   
   In order to access curiosity, start with remembering these two sentences:
   
   "That is amazing!"
   
   "I never thought that could be that way, this is fascinating"
   
    
   
   Use them without any tone of sarcasm or superiority. Be amazed! This is where
   genuine curiosity begins. You have your culture, someone else has a different
   culture. Curiosity is about finding a way to discover their culture without
   attacking it or adapting to it, and without defending how it goes for you.

 * EXPERIMENTS
   
   
   
   
   YOUR BELIEF SYSTEM
   
   MATRIX CODE CULTOCUL.01
   
   This experiment can be done in a Possibility Team, or in your 3Cell. You need
   your Beep! Book and pen, and your Sword of Clarity at your own neck and at
   the neck of your friends and colleagues in your Team.
   
    
   
   This is an exploration journey into your own beliefs that shape your culture.
   If you carry beliefs from others that you have not inspected than you are
   behaving as a Zombie, following rules or ways of being that serves a purpose
   that you are not aware of.
   
    
   
   The purpose of this experiment is to bring clarity on your beliefs that have
   been operating under your awareness for many years. So eventually you get the
   choice of what is operating your culture.
   
    
   
   For about 15 minutes, write down ALL your beliefs about the following
   domains:
   
   i. Children
   
   ii. Women
   
   iii. School
   
   iv. Possession of land or property
   
   v. Money
   
   vi. Your Destiny
   
   vii. Status
   
   viii. Sex.
   
   ix. Regarding treating the Earth as if it were a business in liquidation.
   
   x. Spirituality
   
    
   
   Then, for another 10 minutes, write down the beliefs of Modern Culture about
   those same 10 domains.
   
    
   
   Then, compare your belief system to Modern Culture's. What is different? What
   is the same? What are the consequences of each belief?

   YOUR BOX'S BELIEFS AND TRADITIONS
   
   
   (PART 1)
   
   MATRIX CODE CUL2CUL.02
   
   This experiment is best done in a Possibility Team or in your 3Cell.
   
   Do this experiment with people who are asshole enough to have the courage to
   be radically honest with you.
   
    
   
   Your Box is not just a simple cubic shape around you, it is complex and wrap
   around and twisted. One way to unfold the different parts of your Box which
   you are identified with is to look at its layers. Each layer that you have
   created is made in a way to fit into your birth culture. By unraveling your
   Box's layers you will discover in contrast your cultures ways, taboos,
   traditions and thoughtware.
   
    
   
   Here's a non exhaustive list of layer in Boxes that you can use and attached
   questions:
   
   0. Universe: where are you in the Universe? who are you in the Universe? what
   is your relationship to the Universe? at what percentage would you consider
   yourself in connection with the Universe?
   
   1. Humanity, Earthlings: at what percentage do you consider yourself human?
   how is being human different? what is your relationship to Earth or Gaia? do
   you own it, does she own you? Was Planet design for human beings or for
   something else? what are we suppose to do with Planet Earth or Gaia? What is
   your relationship to the resources of planet Earth (oil, rocks, minerals,
   sun, wind, biodiversity, forest, wildlife, wind, water, ...) (hint: how often
   do you use the pronoun 'our' in front of 'water', 'wildlife', 'forest'. For
   example: "we have to protect our forests, our wildlife, our biodiversity",
   ...? )?
   
   2. Nation, Citizenship: from which country are you? how are you part of this
   country? what makes you so attached to this country? what makes your country
   so special (positively, negatively or neutrally)? how did you come to have
   the story that you 'have' a country? what is your relationship to others
   citizenship (pick different countries)? what are the traditions that you have
   adopted from this country or citizenship?
   
   3. Religion: which religion are you or were you taking part of? do you or did
   you go to church or an equivalent? why? what did you get from it? if you got
   out, how did you got out? what were the consequences? how old were you? why
   did you get out?
   
   4. Community (Job, Company, School): which communities are you part of? how
   does those communities matters to you? which school did you go to? do you put
   it on your resume? how did it serve you? how did it deserved you? what is
   your relationship to your school? what is your company? what is your company
   culture? how long have you been in your company? why is this company
   important for you? how does your job keeps you safe from taking risk? what
   have you sacrifices to keep your job in your company? what is your
   relationship to your boss? to your underlings? what does your partner think
   about your job and company? which 'class' do you consider yourself from?
   
   5. Position: what is your position in your community? do you have different
   position in different communities or you found yourself in similar ones? how
   do people relate to you? how do you relate to people? what patterns can you
   see repeat themselves?
   
   6. Family: who are you in your family? What is your relation to your father?
   to your mother? to your siblings (each separately)? to your family lineage?
   who are the heroes in your family? who are the black sheep? what are the
   patterns that you've adopted from your family? what does family mean to you?
   what does it mean to be a parent? a child? a grandparent?
   
   7. You: what is your Box? why did you put things that way? how did you come
   to organize like that?
   
    
   
   Last question: at what percentage do you think your Box is real? Answer this
   question experientially and NOT from your mind. This is where your assholes
   friend come in. Friends, you can scan for the identification of the person
   with their box through the examples and consequences in their life that they
   just gave you (golden keys). For example, if you hear things like "it is like
   that to be a parent" or they take full advantage of their position, it is
   very likely that the identification is around 100%.

   YOUR BOX'S BELIEFS AND TRADITIONS
   
   
   (PART 2)
   
   MATRIX CODE CUL2CUL.03
   
   After all 3 people had the chance to explore the layers of their Box and
   answer the question regarding the level of identification to their Box, this
   is the time to reveal - in contrast - your common birth culture (assuming
   that all participants were born and bread in western modern culture).
   
    
   
   What are the strategy that you have in common? What about the one that are
   different? What is the underling story? What are the common consequences?
   What common values are supported by those different Boxes? What are the
   taboos? What are the some of the assumptions that design all of your Boxes?
   
    
   
   This exercise can be quickly taken over by Gremlins and Boxes as they are
   being exposed! Be aware of this, keep your Gremlin on a short leash, your
   Sword of Clarity in the other and be clearly compassionate with each other.
   We can only go as far as we can go.

   INVENT A WHOLE NEW CELEBRATION AT CHRISTMAS
   
   MATRIX CODE CULTOCUL.06
   
   Creating a new culture starts where you are. You were born into a culture
   where people gather on the same day each year not to celebrate something
   meaningful, but rather to eat a lot of food together, decorate their homes
   with disoposable decorations, and exchange gifts that will probably be thrown
   out within six months.
   
    
   
   Just because it is out of alignment with your new culture doesn't mean you
   have to avoid it. Instead you can propose a whole new way of celebrating
   Christmas.
   
    
   
   Discover all of the ways your Christmas is not working for you and invent new
   ways of doing them. Create a new context where these practices make perfect
   sense. Communicate them to your fellow celebrators. Enroll them in helping to
   create it.

   TALK ABOUT YOUR CULTURES
   
   MATRIX CODE CULTOCUL.07
   
   Every conversation starts out with the assumption that you are your birth
   culture.
   
    
   
   For the next week, instead of having conversations about whatever you thought
   you wanted to talk about, shift the context to talk about your culture and
   that of the person with whom you are talking.
   
    
   
   You can start off by saying something like, "I am creating a new culture and
   I want to talk with you about it". Make space for their questions and fears.
   Respond without defending or adapting.
   
    
   
   Part of the conversation is about learning their culture. Ask questions. Be
   curious. You may discover aspects of their culture that you would like to
   adopt.
