Yeah it is not possible to cover the entire topic and cite all of the sources in a forum thread.

One of the chief premises of Quantum Mechanics is that the analysis of basic reality causes it to change (i.e. just by looking at the basic form the actual form changes, hence we cannot capture it).
Forms can cause matter to manifest, I've come to realize. However in the Astral we deal with more immediate forms, in the Mental we deal with pure thoughts in fact. Imagination is enough to create the actual in higher planes.

It is important to consider the context of this world, since it is just a small part of the greater universe, and a lower vibration at that. The importance of who constricts us to this segmented vibration can be left out of the discussion for now.
The essence of the point is the constriction itself, in each action people do there seems to be constriction, definition, categorization (and ultimately solidification of forms).
The Matrix is far from fact but just as Biblical scholars use Bible stories and myths as a metaphor to chase the essence behind them, it does the same.

The film in that sense requires an abstract look rather than a direct one to be applicable to how the world exists. It is full of allusions, which can be followed to free ourselves from the repression caused in this constriction of the world and segmentation from the greater universe.

I think it is important to note that the individual is suppressed to great ends, with introspection comes the realization that we can do in fact nothing at all that we wish -- and all we do is done for others (employers, family, friends, social trends etc.).
