Dear Reader,
As I am writing these words, I am not speaking out loud, but I have been listening to myself thousands of times. I have also read out loud what I was writing many, many times, but I am not reading out loud this time. I am reminded of the times I was speaking and reading out loud while I am just writing. These words are for you to be read out loud so that you can begin to hear your voice and realize how your Sound Verbal Behavior (SVB) is going to transform your life.
You are not going to changed by the SVB of others, but you are going to be changed by your own SVB. You have been wanting to hear the truth out of the mouth of a knowledgeable person, some authority, some guru, some teacher and you have listened to their lectures, their preaching and explanations, but none of that has made or could make you listen to yourself. To listen to yourself is something you have avoided. You have rehearsed your speech, you have been practicing what you were going to say, but that was not the same as listening to yourself while you speak.
When you listen to yourself while you speak, you have no notes, you don’t know what you are going to say. You are listening to yourself because you are not trying to listen to yourself. As long as you are trying to listen to yourself, you are not listening to yourself. To listen to yourself, you don’t need to try to listen to yourself. In other words, there is no tension in you at all when you are listening to yourself while you speak, when you engage in SVB. When that happens, it is so different from what you have been used to that you can’t help notice you weren’t doing this before. Thus, when you listen, you realize you were never listening before. Listening is always new, it renews you.
When you listen to yourself while you speak for the first time, you will not only realize that you were not listening to yourself before, but you also understand why you were not and why you could not listen to others. You didn’t and couldn’t really listen to others because you weren’t listening to yourself. While you are reading this and while you are hearing yourself say this, you also begin to notice that you are speaking differently. You didn’t speak like this and you couldn’t speak like this, but you are now learning to speak in a different way. You are learning to be SVB speaker instead of a Noxious Verbal Behavior (NVB) speaker. When you have SVB by yourself, you notice that you totally approve of it, you approve of yourself and nobody needs to approve of you.
I am able to write these words as I know what it is like to listen to myself while I speak and to engage in SVB. Your exploration will make you write differently too. As you learn to listen to yourself while you speak, you’ll find that self-listening makes you into a different kind of speaker, a SVB speaker who not only sounds differently, but who also says different things than the NVB speaker. The SVB speaker writes like this and as you should be able to notice, there is no writing like this anywhere. And, this Sound Writing Behavior (SWB) should help you understand that also SWB is nowhere to be found either. What you have been reading was not SWB, but Noxious Writing Behavior (NWB). In the same way that only SVB can help us understand what NVB is, so too only SWB can explain to us why NWB has been perpetuating NVB.
