Lying,

 

The reason, you do not want to engage in Embodied Language (EL), but – seemingly – want to continue with your mechanical, boring, stupid Disembodied Language (DL), is because your EL would reveal all the terrible things you do and have always done: you have, with your DL, endlessly lied to yourself. It isn’t a pretty picture. You would engage in EL, once you would have stopped lying, but, as I have stated  many times, stopping DL requires, that you become aware about your whole sad conditioning history.

 

I am the living proof, that it is possible, to step out of DL, to have ongoing EL and to be conscious of who I am. I know why your still DL continues, even if  you would make serious attempts to stop it. Trying to stop your DL, keeps your DL going and once you have EL, you will know, you are not trying to have it, because you have it. Moreover, as you have EL, you realize, you were able to stop your DL without trying to stop it too. It stopped, since you were speaking with and listening to yourself and bringing your language back to yourself. In DL, your language is ineffective and problematic, as it always seems to be about others, but not about you. In DL, you only consider yourself in comparison to others, but in EL, you no longer put yourself above or below others.

 

When you consider yourself better than others, you put yourself higher than others and you are, as they say, holier-than-thou. If, however, you view others as superior to you, then you are the underdog, the victim, the oppressed or the loser. In EL, on the other hand, you will feel love, you will experience beauty, you will have clarity about your life, as you are totally natural and completely at ease. Thus, in EL, the comparison with others, never even arises.

 

In EL, you can be on your own, you appreciate being alone and undisturbed with yourself and this is why your Language Enlightenment (LE) is instantly clear to you. You don’t become this way, but you have always been this way and, in effect, you don’t stop your DL either, as you never were what you believed yourself to be. Therefore, there is no you, who was having DL, who stopped DL and who then went on to have EL. All this stuff is finished, the moment you engage in EL. You know it, when LE happens, as you realize your true self, which is neither dependent on the opinion of others, nor on your own opinion.

 

Please, stop reading for a moment and ask yourself: how is it possible, that someone, that anyone, can write anything like this? You could write it or say it. You can understand it and embody it. To turn away from your language, is a tragedy that has happened and that continues to happen, as long as you don’t take time, to listen to yourself and experience what you say. You have always abandoned yourself with your DL and your so-called identity – that you are someone special or that you are someone inferior, who doesn’t matter – was fabricated by your phony DL. Who you believed yourself to be, is based on your fear of death, as you will not be able to take anything with you, when you eventually return to where you were, before you were born. Of course, this notion of this returning is a metaphor, to signify the end of your language. Sure enough, you can talk  about eternity only as long as you are still alive.

 

Fantasies about heaven or hell, are the inevitable result of your inability to acknowledge, that you are the only one, who creates and lives in the reality of your own making. Your fear of death is, in fact, your fear of being alone, with your own language. It is evident from this realization, that what you call your consciousness, is actually your fear of others and not your fear of yourself. If you speak with yourself and hear your own reasoning with EL, you don’t hear any fear, because you are here. This business, which has been described as meditation, is always about trying to fit a square peg in a round hole, but in EL, you will be the master of your own language.

 

We keep lying, because we can deceive others, but we cannot deceive ourselves. We never consider ourselves to be the master over our breathing, our walking or our sleeping, as these behaviors come natural to us, but when it comes to our language, we make it seem, as if suddenly something different is going on. With EL, we come to know, that being verbal or literate – in retrospect – is as natural to us as our breathing, our walking or our sleeping. This demystification of our language is our LE, as we are only able to use our language, in the way that we were told or taught. Nobody taught us to have EL and that is why we don’t have it. However, EL isn’t something which is taught to us by others. I didn’t learn my it from someone else, as I discovered it myself. When we stop lying and engage in ongoing EL, we find, this is the only way to live: we have to do our own breathing and our own sleeping and we must stand on our own legs. To go our own way, we must speak for ourselves, with our own language.
