Unfold,  

 

My existence is constantly unfolding, because I have the language, which is alive. With Embodied Language (EL), I can be who I am, because my language is not a ready-made event, but treats me to innovation and renewal. What I write here is not made up, but really true. A feeling of indifference also makes me say something about Disembodied Language (DL), but I actually do so with some reluctance. To me, DL is a stupid and dreadful thing that I have no interest in, but unfortunately it is everywhere. While everyone is unconsciously stuck in DL, I continue confidently with my wonderful EL.

 

With DL everyone repeats the same pattern. There is nothing to enjoy in all the misery and sadness, in all the struggle, the stress, the pointlessness and the vulgarity. However, I am experiencing something very wonderful and beautiful, something which is only for me, that readers can read about, because I take pleasure in writing and speaking about it. I don't do this for others, but for myself. This is how, with EL, my nature, my Language Enlightenment (LE) is expressed. With EL, there is no getting around the fact that LE could never have come about, for those who unknowingly continued with DL. Yet, the possibility, to create your own reality, by letting your language unfold, is still there.

 

It is valuable to hear and read the tragedy of habit, as it indicates, we have said and written something that sets us free. We are of course responsible for all the problems in the world through our language, but also for the solution. However, our problems do not arise due to DL, but our DL itself is the problem. Only in EL something useful and pleasant can be created, but with our DL, we only talk about what we don't want and what we are fighting with.

 

The growth of a plant or 

a tree cannot be denied. 

If that growth stops then,

that shrub or tree is dead. 

We are living beings who,

with the help of our DL,

 died an untimely death 

or who rose from the dead

 because of EL. The lethality

 of DL is easily brushed 

aside, with all kinds of 

fanfare, to convince us, 

we are really very much 

alive. Ridiculous pretending 

is a characteristic of DL, 

but when our language is 

unfolding, that tendency 

to lie will wither away. 

 

With EL, our LE is undeniable. We have been mistaken, because of our conditioning with DL, for we are not what or who we claimed to be. We have never been what we assumed we were, because of our unnatural, stubborn use of language. We have only imagined everything and as soon as we can finally have some EL - even for one moment - our illusion immediately disappears.

 

The predictable, inescapable, adverse consequences of our DL, have nothing to do with genuine talking about being alive. All of our endless complaining and bickering is always about the lawfulness of our behavior, which we keep denying with our DL. The plant, which did not get enough water, nutrition or sun, has died and we, because of our superficial, unintelligent language, behave as if we had already died psychologically, emotionally, mentally or spiritually. However, the enormous resistance we feel against anything and everything, is because something still wants to unfold and emerge.

 

Today is a great day to finally let your own creation take its course, with your EL. Just let go of your DL for a while and wait patiently, until something new can be said or written. You can hear and you know when that happens, don't you? Just be patient and stop yourself from saying or writing something, you have already said or written so many times. You can produce something new, by putting your DL on hold. Yes, that requires self-control. The unfolding of your sensitive EL is a completely different story than what you have told yourself and others with DL.

 

Because of our DL, we actually know very little about the unfolding, which is essential in the transmission of knowledge. The so-called learning process has always been unknowingly undermined by our DL. In EL, there is a direct understanding, because there is unfolding in our speaking as well as in our listening. As can be read, recognized, enjoyed and understood in this writing, our LE has given rise to ecstatic EL, which freely moves around between listening-speaking and speaking-listening, into our writing-reading and our reading-writing.

 

The remarkable thing about our EL, is that there is no longer any mention, that we are compulsively thinking about something, because everything can now arise and be expressed naturally. Our LE is the creation of our reality with EL and the flow of how things can go, when we surrender to ourselves and therefore, to our own language. It is a new form of trust or faith, which we have never been able to recognize and talk about and, therefore, we have never heard of. With EL, we experience, express, hear and act on, the self-confidence of our LE.

 

Ontstaan,

 

Mijn bestaan is constant aan het ontstaan, omdat ik de taal heb, die leeft. Met Belichaamde Taal (BT) kan ik zijn wie ik ben, omdat mijn taal geen kant en klaar gebeuren is, maar mij op vernieuwing trakteert. Wat ik hier schrijf is niet verzonnen, maar echt waar. Een gevoel van onverschilligheid doet mij eveneens over Ontlichaamde Taal (OT) wat zeggen, maar ik doe dat eigenlijk met enige tegenzin. Voor mij is OT een dom gedoe, waar ik geen interesse in heb, maar helaas is het overal. Terwijl iedereen ongemerkt vast zit in OT, ga ik gewoon lekker verder met mijn heerlijke BT.

 

Met OT herhaalt iedereen hetzelfde patroon. Er valt niks te beleven aan alle ellende en verdriet, aan al de strijd, de stress, de zinloosheid en de vulgariteit. Ik beleef echter iets heel wonderlijks en schoons, iets wat alleen voor mij bestemd is, waar de lezers over mogen lezen, omdat ik er genoegen in schep om erover te schrijven en te spreken. Ik doe dit niet voor anderen, maar voor mezelf. Zo komt, met mijn BT, mijn ware aard, mijn Taal Verlichtging (TV) tot uitdrukking. Met BT valt er niet omheen te gaan, dat TV nooit kon ontstaan, voor hen die onbewust zijn  blijven doorgaan met OT. Toch is die mogelijkheid, om je taal te laten onstaan, nog steeds aanwezig.

 

Het is belangrijk, om de tragedie van de gewoonte te horen en te lezen, omdat dat erop duidt, dat wij iets hebben gezegd en geschreven, dat ons bevrijdt. Wij zijn uiteraard met onze taal verantwoordelijk voor alle problemen in de wereld, maar ook voor de oplossing. Onze problemen ontstaan echter niet in OT, maar onze OT is zelf het probleem. Alleen in BT kan er iets bruikbaars en aangenaams ontstaan, maar met onze OT hebben wij het enkel over wat we niet willen en waarmee wij aan het vechten zijn.

 

Het groeien van een plant of een boom, valt niet te ontkennen. Als dat groeien ophoudt, dan is die struik of boom dood. Wij zijn levende wezens, die met behulp van onze OT, een voortijdige dood zijn gestorven of die vanwege BT uit de dood herrijzen. De dodelijkheid van OT wordt gemakkelijk aan de kant geschoven, met allerlei poe-ha, die ons ervan zou moeten overtuigen, dat wij echt heel levend zouden zijn. Doen alsof, is een kenmerk van OT, maar in het ontstaan, heeft die pretentie afgedaan.

 

Met BT valt onze TV niet te ontkennen. Wij hebben ons, vanwege onze conditionering met OT vergist, want wij zijn niet, wat of wie wij beweerden te zijn. We zijn dus nooit geweest, wat wij vanwege onze  onnatuurlijke omgang met taal, veronderstelden te zijn. Wij hebben ons slechts van alles ingebeeld en zodra wij – al is het maar eventjes – eindelijk wat BT kunnen hebben, verdwijnt onze illusie onmiddelijk.

 

De voorspelbare, onontkoombare nadelige gevolgen van onze OT, hebben niets met onstaan, met leven, te maken. Al ons eindeloze geklaag en gekanker gaat altijd over de wetmatigheid van ons gedrag, die we maar met onze OT blijven ontkennen. De plant, die niet genoeg water, voeding of zon kreeg, ging dood en wij gedragen ons, vanwege onze onintelligente taal, alsof wij psychisch, emotioneel, mentaal of spiritueel al dood zouden zijn gegaan. De enorme weerstand, die wij voelen tegen van alles en nog wat, is echter omdat er nog steeds iets wil ontstaan.

 

Vandaag is het een prima dag, om jou ontstaan eens eindelijk – met BT – zijn gang te laten gaan. Laat je OT nou maar eens eventjes los en wacht maar eens rustig af, totdat er iets nieuws gezegd of geschreven kan worden. Je hoort toch en je weet toch, als dat gebeurd? Wees toch eens geduldig en weerhoudt jezelf ervan, om weer iets te zeggen of te schrijven, wat je al zovaak hebt gezegd of geschreven. Je kunt  iets nieuws produceren, door je OT op non-actief te zetten. Ja, dat vergt zelf-beheersing. Het ontstaan van jou gevoelige BT, is een heel ander verhaal, dan wat jij aan jezelf en anderen hebt verteld met je OT.

 

Wij weten – vanwege onze OT – eigenlijk maar heel weinig over het ontstaan, over de overdracht van kennis. Het zogenaamde leerproces, is tot dusver altijd ongemerkt ondermijnd geweest door OT. In BT is er een direct begrijpen, omdat het ontstaan zowel in ons spreken als in ons luisteren is gegaan. Zoals in dit schrijven kan worden gelezen, herkend, genoten en begrepen, is onze TV, dus onze BT, die van ons luisterend-spreken en ons sprekend-luisteren, in ons schrijvend-lezen en ons lezend-schrijven is gegaan.

 

Het opmerkelijke aan onze BT is, dat er geen enkele  melding meer wordt gemaakt, dat we dwangmatig ergens over zijn aan het nadenken, want alles kan nu op een natuurlijke wijze onstaan. Onze TV is het met BT creeren van onze eigen werkelijkheid en het laten ontstaan van hoe het kan gaan, als wij ons aan onszelf en dus aan onze eigen taal overgeven. Het is een nieuwe vorm van vertrouwen, waarover wij nog nooit eerder hebben kunnen spreken, waarvan wij dus ook nog nooit hebben gehoord. Met BT ervaren wij en uiten wij de zelfverzekerdheid van onze TV.  

 

Myself,

 

With Embodied Language (EL) there is no me, inside of me, who, supposedly, does what I do. Funny-how, I am myself, I can be myself, because there is no self. Moreover, I am happy with and confident in myself, because I don’t have a mind. I speak, listen, write or  read, but there is no I, while I’m speaking, listening, writing or reading, as there is only behavior. Surely, I am very alive, while there is no I, who behaves me. I am happy, peaceful and full of energy, yet, there is no me, who has this experience, it just so happens.   

 

In Disembodied Language (DL) I couldn’t be myself, no matter how hard I tried to be myself or whatever I believed to be. Being myself is an experience of oneness, which I call Language Enlightenment (LE). I can hear in the sound of my voice, if I express this or not. Whenever I express my LE, I have EL, but when I express my DL, I have lost touch with my LE. I was, like everyone, conditioned to have DL, but with EL, my LE become revealed and being myself, is my LE.

 

Whenever someone has EL with me, they will come to the same conclusion: there is no self and there is no one, who let’s go of his or her identity. Perhaps, it is best for the reader, who reads this, to consider a simple example. Let’s say, you make yourself a sandwich. There is no self, just your handling of the knife, the plate, the bread and the peanut-butter. In other words, you know what to do and how to do it. You have great peanut-butter-sandwich-knowledge, but there really is no you, who has this knowledge.

 

Whenever you engage in EL, you will repeatedly say things like this: I am amazed at myself, how clever I am. Also, you will often say: I am so happy with and proud of myself, that I have stopped my DL, because I was feeling unhappy and dissatisfied with myself, whenever I engaged in DL. I have made such a big deal about myself, while I engaged DL, but with EL, being myself means, I have no problems and have  nothing to worry about. Indeed, being myself, is to be free of the me, who I believed to be. With my EL, my LE has instructed me, to stop believing in myself.

 

I still use the same language, now that I can have EL, but I use it totally differently, from when I was using DL. When I changed from DL to EL, I stopped being who I never was and I became, who I have always been. While I was speaking with myself and listening to myself, it happened, in a moment. I felt no longer negative, but positive, since my language no longer drained my energy, but filled me with energy. I say there is no me inside of me and that is why it is so.

 

Whenever you engage in EL, you will become aware how often you unconsciously engage in DL. Surely, there really is no you, who engages in DL or in EL, but in DL, you are convinced to be there, while in EL, you have blissfully dissolved in your LE. And, you will proudly say: I did all this by myself, because nobody could stop my DL for me. Your DL stopped, as you realized it happened again, you were overtaken by your conditioning. At some point – after you have explored your LE with your EL – the you, who was, presumably, overtaken by DL, has disappeared, and, therefore, you are no longer affected by DL. You have not stopped your DL, as it stopped by itself.

 

Only with DL, you keep asking yourself: why is this still happening to me, while I keep telling myself, I deserve something better? Obviously, you are not really listening to yourself, because you don’t take the time, to really speak with yourself. Furthermore, who you believe to be, keeps you more busy about others than about yourself. With EL, you will ask yourself the serious question: when are you going to take care of yourself? I know your answer, because it is the same for everyone with EL. Your answer will be: I only begin to care take of myself, when talking with myself, becomes more important than talking with others. With others, I keep having DL, but by talking with myself, I can step out of DL and have EL.

 

By talking aloud alone and by listening to ourselves, we easily step out of our DL and our identity. Until now, this has been considered a spiritual matter, but it is actually a language-skill. We instruct ourselves by disengaging from the DL with others and we free ourselves, to be able to talk with ourselves and have EL. With EL, I calmly say: I have to protect myself, in the way that has proven to be most effective. In EL, we really listen to what we say to ourselves. We are our own authority and we follow through on our own reasoning, our own intelligence, our own LE.

 

Doorlopend,

 

Nadat je het enorme verschil hebt ontdekt tussen je Ontlichaamde Taal (OT) en je Belichaamde Taal (BT), kun je niet missen, dat je vanaf nu continu BT zou kunnen hebben. Hoewel het zeker waar is, dat je conditioneringsgeschiedenis met OT nog niet meteen voorbij is, je weet dat het mogelijk is, om terug te keren naar BT, hoe vaak je het ook vergeet. Elke keer dat je weer met jezelf praat en weer naar jezelf luistert, vindt je moeiteloos je BT terug, die in altijd verdergaat waar je hem or haar verliet.

 

Dit teruggaan, naar waar je taalgebruik je begon te scheiden van je ervaring, is geen teruggaan naar de laatste keer dat je BT had, maar het is een teruggaan – helemaal – naar de tijd, dat je nog een baby was, die had nog niet leren spreken. Ja, gedurende deze pre-verbale toestand was er alleen ervaring, maar geen taal. In BT luister je naar jezelf, terwijl je spreekt, wat dus betekent, dat je jezelf ervaart terwijl je spreekt. Deze ervaring maakt een nieuw begrip mogelijk, dat door jou wordt uitgedrukt als jouw unieke BT.

 

Iedereen wil gelukkig zijn, maar de enige reden waarom we gelukkig willen zijn, is omdat we niet gelukkig zijn. Als we gelukkig zijn, dan zijn we niet bezig om gelukkig te willen zijn. We willen alleen gelukkig zijn als we ongelukkig zijn. Waarom zijn we ongelukkig? Zijn we ongelukkig, omdat we niet gelukkig kunnen zijn of is er iets dat ons geluk blijft verstoren? Natuurlijk kunnen we gelukkig zijn, maar we hebben nooit erkend, dat ons taal gebruik ons niet toestaat gelukkig te zijn. We kunnen alleen gelukkig zijn als onze taal aansluit bij ons geluk. In die paar momenten dat we blij waren, was onze taal aangepast aan onze geluksbeleving of waren we zo blij, dat we sprakeloos waren en dat taal niet nodig was.

 

Het zogenaamde probleem van één en velen is iets was voortdurend wordt besproken door filosofen. Ik ben geen filosoof en voor mij is er geen probleem, omdat ik continu BT heb. Filosofen, die eindeloos over deze kwestie praten, herhalen iets, dat ze kennelijk niet kunnen achterhalen, omdat ze onbewust voortdurend bezig zijn met hun OT. Ze kunnen dat zogenaamde enige ding of de realiteit die ten grondslag ligt aan de diversiteit en complexiteit van het universum maar niet vinden, omdat ze nooit naar zichzelf luisteren terwijl ze spreken.

 

Iedereen die zich met BT bezighoudt, hoort zichzelf voortdurend terwijl hij of zij spreekt. Deze aandacht voor ons eigen stem-geluid, zorgt ervoor, dat we de spreker ervaren als zijn of haar eigen luisteraar. Met andere woorden: de spreker en de luisteraar – die dus de spreker is – worden in BT altijd als één ervaren. Tijdens OT echter – waarbij we niet naar onszelf luisteren terwijl we spreken – beelden wij ons onbewust in, dat er een scheiding zou zijn tussen de spreker en de luisteraar, die spreekt. Daarom is OT de taal van dualiteit - die vervolgens de illusie van het denken en onze zogenaamde mind creeert - maar BT is de taal van eenheid of heelheid. Wanneer wij, in BT, als sprekers onszelf ervaren als één met de luisteraar, wordt het voor ons duidelijk, als we met anderen spreken, dat zij, als luisteraars, ook één met ons zijn, omdat we altijd de spreker en de luisteraar als één ervaren. Ook wanneer anderen praten, zijn wij als luisteraar altijd één met hen, omdat in BT voortdurend de spreker de luisteraar is. Als we anderen horen praten – in BT – dan horen we dus eigenlijk onszelf praten, omdat we op dezelfde manier naar anderen luisteren als naar onszelf, en met anderen praten op dezelfde manier als met onszelf.

 

Ons vermogen om voortdurend met BT bezig te zijn, is een taal-vaardigheid, die alleen kan worden verworven, als we onze eigen OT kunnen stopzetten. De voortzetting van BT impliceert onze Taal Verlichting (TV), wat gewoon een andere manier is om te zeggen: we zijn of ervaren onszelf altijd als één met de werkelijkheid of wij zijn – met onze BT – letterlijk onze eigen werkelijkheid. We ervaren met BT niet, zoals bij OT, alsof we afgescheiden zijn van de wereld, maar we zijn er één mee, want dat is de realiteit, die wij met onze taal hebben gecreeerd. En wij leven in die realiteit. Onze BT drukt dus altijd onze TV uit en daarom kan onze BT moeiteloos en geheel spontaan doorgaan. In OT beelden we ons dus in – vanwege de manier waarop we onze taal blijven gebruiken – dat we gescheiden zouden zijn van de werkelijkheid. OT is de verkeerde manier om taal te gebruiken en BT is de juiste manier.

 

Pas nadat we het enorme verschil tussen onze OT en BT hebben ontdekt, beginnen we toe te geven, te erkennen en  werkelijk te begrijpen, hoeveel we feitelijk last hebben van onze erbarmelijke conditioneringsgeschiedenis met OT. Hoewel we zeker in staat zijn om voor onszelf wat situaties te creeeren, om BT te kunnen ervaren, in plaats van OT, zijn we ons er pijnlijk van bewust, dat we niet voortdurend BT hebben. In de eerste plaats, is er natuurlijk ook niemand anders die BT met ons kan hebben, omdat vooralsnog niemand zich realiseert, dat alleen luisteren naar onszelf terwijl we spreken ons doet bezighouden met onze BT, die onze TV onthult. Als de zeldzame, moedige individuen, die voortdurend gelukzalige BT nastreven, elkaar hebben gevonden, vindt er een enorm feest plaats, omdat zij elkaar echt voeden en stimuleren. Zij zijn de enigen, die daartoe werkelijk in staat zijn. Het zou natuurlijk geweldig zijn als we dit allemaal zouden doen. Dat is de prachtige toekomst die iedereen te wachten staat.   

 

Continuously,

 

After you have discovered the immense difference between your Disembodied Language (DL) and your Embodied Language (EL), you can’t miss, that from now, you can continuously have EL. While it is certainly true, your conditioning history with DL isn’t immediately finished, you know it is possible to return to EL, no matter how often you forget. Each time, you talk again with yourself and listen again to yourself, you effortlessly find back your EL, which basically continues exactly from where you left it.

 

This going back, to where your language began to separate you from your experience, isn’t a going back to the last time you had EL, but it is a going back – all the way – to when you were still a baby, who hadn’t yet learned how to speak. Yes, in this pre-verbal state, there was only experience, but no language. EL is listening to yourself while you speak, which means, experiencing yourself while you speak. This experience makes a new understanding possible, which is expressed by you as your EL.  

 

Everybody wants to be happy, but the reason, we want to be happy, is because we are not happy. If we are happy, we don’t want to be happy. We only want to be happy, when we are unhappy. Why are we unhappy? Are we unhappy, because we can’t be happy or is there something, that keeps diminishing our happiness? Of course, we can be happy, but we have never acknowledged, our language doesn’t allow us to be happy. We can only be happy, if our language fits with our happiness. Those moments we were happy, our language matched with our experience of happiness, or we were so happy, that we were speechless, that language wasn’t needed.

 

The so-called problem of one and the many, has been discussed continuously by philosophers. I am not a philosopher and to me, there is no problem, because I have EL continuously. Philosophers, who endlessly talk about this matter, obviously repeat something, they are unable to figure out, because they unconsciously, continuously engage in DL. They can’t find the one thing or reality that underlies the diversity and complexity of the universe, because they never listen to themselves while they speak.

 

Anyone who engages in EL, continuously hears him or herself, while he or she speaks. This attention for our own sound, makes us experience the speaker as his or her own listener. In other words, the speaker and the listener – who is the speaker – are always experienced as one in EL. By contrast, during DL – in which we don’t listen to ourselves while we speak – we, unknowingly, experience a separation between the speaker and the listener, who speaks. Therefore, DL is the language of duality, in which we imagine we have a mind, but EL is the language of oneness. When we, in EL, as speakers, experience ourselves, as one with the listener, it is clear to us, when we speak with others, that they, as listeners, are also one with us, because we always perceive the speaker and the listener as one. Also, when others talk, we, as listeners, are always one with them, because in EL the speaker is the listener. In effect, when we hear others talk – in EL – we hear ourselves talk, because we listen to others in the same way as we listen to ourselves, and we talk with others in the same way as we talk with ourselves.

 

Our ability to engage in EL, continuously, is a skill which can only be acquired if we stop our own DL. The continuation of our EL signifies our Language Enlightenment (LE), which is just another way of saying, we are always one with reality. We don’t experience, as in DL, as if we are separate from the world, but we are one with it, because that is our reality. Thus, our EL always expresses our LE and that is why, it can go on continuously. Surely, in DL, due to the way we use our language, we imagine to be separate from reality. DL is simply the incorrect way of using language and EL is the correct way.

 

Only after we have discovered the great difference between our DL and EL, do we begin to admit and acknowledge and comprehend, how much we are actually troubled by our conditioning history with DL. Although we definitely begin to become capable of arranging instances in which can experience our EL, instead of DL, we are painfully aware, about the fact that we don’t have EL continuously. First of all, there is no one else, to have EL with us, because no one realizes, that listening to ourselves while we speak and engaging in EL, reveals our LE. Those rare individuals, who continuously pursue blissful EL, continuously feed off of each other, as they are the only ones, who are capable of doing this. Of course, it would be great, if we would all be doing this.            

 

Disappeared,

 

Once you have Embodied Language (EL), instead of your usual problematic, automatic, erratic, pathetic Disembodied Language (DL), you know, everything you believed has disappeared. Your convictions have  vanished, because they weren’t true. Your dilemma  wasn’t complicated, as it was simply your DL, which you kept repeating. Everybody makes such big deal about overcoming their struggle, because they don’t have DL. In other words, with EL, we have overcome our problems. We dared to say that it is so, because our EL expresses our Language Enlightenment (LE).

 

When we say something disappeared right in front of our eyes, into thin air, we are talking about something we saw, which is no longer visible, but when we speak about the mutation, which took place due to our EL, we are talking about something we heard, which we no longer hear. Initially, the difference between DL and EL is enormous, because we were hopelessly stuck in DL to our verbal self-concept, but our overrated  identity completely, effortlessly dissolves, in our EL.

 

You can try it out yourself. Sit alone and tell yourself whatever is in your attention and listen to the sound of your voice. You will hear the change in your voice, when you shift from DL to EL and, yes, whatever you were paying attention to – that is, whatever you just have verbalized – disappeared, like snow in the sun. However, if this doesn’t occur, your will very quickly stop talking with yourself, because you don’t like to listen to your own DL. Others always dislike your DL, but you yourself hate it even more, that is why – if you wish to continue talking with and listening to yourself – you only have one choice: stop your DL.

 

You can’t really say, with EL, that LE is your identity, because you feel totally new, each moment, you are able to step out of your dreadful conditioning history with DL. Apparently, after you have done this often enough, you don’t care about your identity anymore, because your DL doesn’t happen anymore and you dissolve into nothingness. Moreover, in EL, your language works for you, instead of – as in DL – against you. Unbelievable as this may sound – while you say this to yourself – there are and there will always be, positive consequences to your EL, even if you keep noticing, that you keep falling back into your repetitive habit of having DL, many times. Your DL becomes less and less, as your ability to have EL increases. You experience the difference it makes in your life, as all your trouble will have disappeared.  

 

There is nothing mysterious about why you are able to finally let go of all your trauma and drama in EL, because once you listen to yourself while you speak, what you say, becomes less important, than how you say it. In DL, you are verbally fixated and completely forgetful about how you say, what you say. Once you bring your attention again, to how you sound, while you speak – to how you experience yourself, while you talk – you happily notice, your fixation on what you say ends. Simultaneously, you hear the sound of your voice changing. You sigh with relief, as your DL and all the problems it has caused, has disappeared.

 

It is one thing, to stop your DL and to have some EL, but quite another, to be able to continue with your EL and, therefore, to express and to be informed by your LE, which is your intelligence. Unless you have ongoing EL, you can’t give yourself the instructions, which are necessary to avoid DL. We can only give ourselves these verbal directions, by taking time, to speak with ourselves and to listen to ourselves, but as long as our energy is drained by our involvement DL, we will remain unconscious about what is really  happening in our lives. Therefore, only after we have disappeared from talking with and being busy with others, can we and will we appear, in talking with – and being able to stay with – ourselves, in EL.

 

We all die one day, yet we fear to disappear. This is nowhere clearer than in our use of language. We mainly have DL, because we try – in vain – to hang on to whatever it is we claim to be important. Only if we stop our own DL, can we have a taste of our own EL, in which let go of the verbal descriptions of the sordid, miserable, chaotic, superficial reality, we have created and maintained with our DL. After we have disappeared – with EL into our LE, from the confusing, frightening, stressful, numb rigmarole of DL – can we begin to live in peace and harmony.  

 

After my father-in-law had been cremated, we spread his ashes on the ocean, near Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco. Once my Chinese in-laws had arrived on the parking lot, we walked together to the end of the small marina. My mother-in-law carried the basket, that held the urn with ashes of her husband. For a while, we sat together, quietly crying, at the end of the pier. My wife’s dad had been such a great man. The urn was opened and the ash was poured into the basked, which was set a-float. Rice-wine and flowers were sprinkled over the basket, which slowly drifted away. When it came to the end of the attached line, the basket was tilted and the ashes spread into the water. You could see it disappear in a cloud, underneath the surface. At that moment, something also disappeared in me. I withdrew from my study in psychology. The dead of Mr. Moy was a remarkable turning-point in my life.  

 

While mourning the loss of Bonnie’s wonderful dad, my ambition to become a psychologist disappeared. It had been such a tremendous struggle. I had also, due to anemia, fallen behind accruing on my clinical hours and on writing my dissertation. The fact was, I was exhausted and drastic steps needed to be made to get back on track. We were living, at the time, in expensive Mountain View, but soon returned back to good old Chico, where housing was more affordable and, unexpectedly, I became psychology instructor.

 

After nine years of teaching at Butte College, my interest in psychology disappeared, when due to Covid, all my classes had to happen online. Besides, there was nobody in academia with the integrity to recognize the gigantic importance of EL, which I had successfully taught to both my students and faculty.  Meanwhile, I had become a self-taught behaviorist. However, I soon found out, that behaviorists are as disinterested in EL as psychologists. Many people have disappeared from my life, because I continue with EL, while they want to go on with DL. I have no contact with anyone in my family, because no one wants to acknowledge their own ability to have EL.

 

Now that my EL can steadily continue, my LE shines brightly, every day. As my DL has subsided, I have also been able to stop the self-defeating behaviors, which were caused and maintained by my DL. I am so glad, all the negativity has disappeared from my life. Recently, I was fired from my retirement-job, because my boss kept being disrespectful, mean and unreasonable to me. I wasn’t allowed to say, I felt mistreated, but this is not how I roll. I am glad and relieved the stress from that job has disappeared and I am sure I will find something else to do for another couple of more years.                    

 

Politics,

 

Although politics, per definition, involves endlessly escalating – and seemingly diminishing – cycles of Disembodied Language (DL), there is, of course, a relationship, between how these political narratives increase or decrease our individual wellbeing. The word politics derives from the Greek word, politika, science or art of government. Polis means city, fort, citadel, state or community of citizens; politikos, pertaining to the state and its administration or public life; ta politika, affairs of the state. Only an orderly, stable and safe society could give rise to Embodied Language (EL). I lived in the Netherlands, when I discovered my EL for the first time. Initially, I couldn’t believe it, that I really had found what I had found, but later, it became clear, due to my ongoing EL, I had found my Language Enlightenment (LE).

 

The great happiness I have discovered in my own EL, allowed me to acknowledge and accept the pain and suffering, I had endured, due to my involvement in DL. In the beginning, I cried very often, whenever I was able to return to my EL, as it was such a relief, but where I am now, I no longer feel I am returning to my EL, because I have it almost all the time. Today, I only sporadically notice the great difference between my DL and my EL, when, for whatever sad or horrible reason, I happen to engage in DL again.

 

As anyone who reads this understands, my journey with EL is a personal matter. If you are interested in pursuing your own EL, you will definitely be going your own way. Politics is the total opposite, because it is a set of activities, that are associated with making decisions in group or other forms of power relations among individuals, such as the distribution of resources or status. Hilariously, the branch of social science that studies politics and government is referred to as political science. DL is ubiquitous in  in every society, around the world, because it is the fundament on which all politics is based. EL is about the individual, but DL is always about the group.

 

When people say, politics as usual, what they mean to say is, we are having negative, coercive, brutal,  problematic, unnatural, automatic, unintelligent DL as usual. With DL we are not free and the so-called freedom of speech isn’t attained, because we need to have EL to be free, as individuals. And, when it is said, we should leave our politics out of it, what we are trying to say, but never quite succeed in saying, is that we would like to stop DL and have EL instead.

 

While it may be somewhat true, that the politics are slowly changing, our destructive DL has continued unabated, as it was never accurately addressed. DL is our commonly accepted, profoundly problematic  way of dealing with language, which sets the stage for all the chaos, conflicts, problems, violence and fragmentation, which keep on increasing, because we have remained incapable of speaking about it.

 

People may say, in politics, he or she is a Democrat or a Republican, but what we are really saying is, we have an excuse to dominate, force, manipulate, fool,  exploit, disrespect, impair and hurt people with our language, as it fits with the story, we prefer to hear. Surely, politics is – and has always been – a cop-out of authentic human relationship. In DL, speakers, unconsciously, make it seem, as if they are better, higher, holier or more important than the listener.           

 

Make no mistake, as long as we are still having some superficial, idle conversation about everything, from the weather to politics, we aren’t talking about the real issue, which is: as long as our unrealistic, stupid, tenacious DL keeps going, we cannot have any EL. Surely, we aren’t having any EL, because we are all, unconsciously, trapped by habitual, insensitive DL.

 

Politicians do the exact same things as everyone else: they engage in DL. Like you, they make lies sound truthful, murder respectable and talk about  a better future, which never comes. You too like to stay in power, whether as a father, a mother, a lover, a friend, a volunteer, a consumer, citizen or believer. Yes, you too engage in DL basically every day, as you don’t know how to have ongoing EL. When it comes to how you use your language, you are not joyful, relaxed, playful or creative, but you are coercive, pretentious, defensive and manipulative. You don’t even recognize the simple fact, your happiness must have its own language. It is often said, that this or that issue has been politicized, but politicians talk like everyone else. Our usual way of speaking, DL, sets the stage for how we govern ourselves and, yes, there is a lot of abuse of power going on politics as well as in our daily lives. Presumably, left and right in politics is about right and wrong, but since both parties engage in DL, it is about wrong and wrong.

 

Anti,

 

I want everyone, who reads my blog or watches my You Tube videos to know, I am absolutely anti-religion (period). Embodied Language (EL) has no affiliation with any established religion. Also, EL is totally anti-political, as neither right wing nor left wing politics matches up with its premise, although right wing politics seems to be somewhat closer. The notion that a person can speak out loud – with him or herself – and tell him or herself what, according to him or her, is going on with him or her and the rest of the world, isn’t represented by any political party, as the individual can, ultimately, only speak for himself or herself. All politics is anti-individual.

 

Jump. In ancient philosophy, the dialectical method – which originally refers to a dialogue between different points of view about a subject – people arrive at the truth through reasoned argumentation. However, this debate excluded subjective elements, such as emotional appeal and rhetoric. Here we see the anti-emotional tendency of all philosophy exposed. Dialectic resembles discussion as a form of reasoning, in which the antithesis contradicts or negates the thesis, thus resulting in a synthesis, which may be a combination of the opposing assertions.

 

Jump. Anti-depressant medications don’t work, but anti-Disembodied Language (DL), certainly will have a therapeutic healing effect. This anti-DL attitude is only going to be beneficial, if it refers to a pro-Embodied Language (EL) attitude, in which we don’t waste time or energy anymore, on being against anything. To be sure, EL is not against DL. If our EL would be against our DL, it wouldn’t be EL. Therefore, the so-called anti-DL stance of EL should only be understood as a pro-EL attitude, but, given the pervasiveness of DL, I call it anti-DL, as DL must urgently be stopped completely, to be able to have EL.

 

It should be noticed, only half the people, who use anti-depressants, experience alleviating effects. Why is that? If it is true, neuro-biology – which we all have in common – is affected by these medications, why aren’t they helping many more people and why do so many of them continue to commit suicide, mass-murder or feel totally depressed and miserable? Those who kill others, blame others for not helping them, but it is usually not explained in that way. Mass-shootings are always a form of retaliation. Disturbing fact is, these suicidal, murderous people have a point, as psychiatry, medication nor therapy have helped them at all. Of course, their parents too, have totally failed them. 

 

Another jump. None of the anti-racism works, because the issue is not racism, but how we deal with language. If it was really our goal, to stop DL, we would have more EL, but this was never the case. Our goal was always, to let one kind of DL prevail over another kind of DL. This could never result in EL, as preventing DL was never our aim. World peace, if it ever happens, will never emerge from our DL, but from our EL.

 

Now take another jump. After the horrendous attack on Israel by Hamas, there is, world-wide, a growing tendency to combine anti-Zionism with anti-Semitism. I want everyone, who reads my work, to know, I firmly stand with Israel’s right to fully defend itself. From my perspective with EL, it is evident that Judaism has resulted in more opportunity for EL, than Islam. I had EL with Christians, Jews, Buddhists, left-wing or right-wing zealots, but never with Muslims.

 

Please, take another jump. I don’t believe in any anti-aging supplements and I want you to eat, whatever you like to eat. If it is not good for you, you will find out, eventually, but if you like what you eat, this is the best way, to a healthy diet. Ultimately, whatever you really like, is the essence of your EL, and if something is bad for you, you weren’t clear about it. If something is bad for you, you should always dislike it and be against it. Therefore, EL teaches us, to be anti-everything-which-isn’t-good-for-us.

 

Consider. I couldn’t write this post, without mentioning the increasing problem of anti-social behavior. While there is the disgusting and disturbing fact of individualism going berserk, people becoming freaks and acting like a social nuisance, it has never been clearly stated, this troubling phenomenon is made possible by and is the inevitable outcome of the way in which everyone is used to interact with dumb DL.

  

Going back to my previous point. The opposite of the aforementioned anti-social behavior – in Judaism – is articulated, celebrated, known and implemented as Talmudic hermeneutics. These are written Hebrew scriptures, but they are, in essence, about speaking. Thus, adherence to this written doctrine, is based on what was and is said. Judaism, seems to be unique in that it is the only religion which provides a link between what was said and heard and what was written and read. There is, however, to this day great dissent amongst the Jews, about the extent to which ancient Oral Law derived from and was established by the written law or whether it was the other way around, but if we have EL, this ridiculous question will be finally put to rest. Of course, we have always first talked about stuff before we wrote about it. Anyone who claims, that written language comes first, uses written language or law, to oppress and minimize the effects of spoken language. This is our biggest problem in the world today, but EL is about oral language and is anti-written language.

 

Now dissolve into space. Whenever someone discovers their EL, they are going to experience an anti-climax. Oddly, Language Enlightenment (LE) is only audible or knowable with ongoing EL, but no one ever assumed, their ultimate happiness would be established by merely speaking, listening, reading and writing. These four overt behaviors pertain to our language and nothing, which refers to thinking or a mind, has any validity in our EL. This anti-thinking, anti-mind stance of our EL, is for most people too far-fetched, but those, who experience and explore EL notice, without doubt, that thought or their so-called mind simply doesn’t exist.  

 

Beschuldigen,

 

Mensen met Ontlichaamde Taal (OT) beschuldigen mensen zoals ik, die Belichaamde Taal (BT) hebben, ervan, dat zij hun taal aan anderen op dringen, maar niet is minder waar (grapje...lees verder). Mijn hele leven lang al word ik ervan beschuldigd, door mensen met OT, dat ik niet luister naar hen, maar zij hebben nog nooit naar mij geluisterd. Als ik rechtstreeks, eerlijk, tegen ze zeg dat ik geen enkele behoefte voel, om naar ze te luisteren, omdat ze niet naar zichzelf luisteren – en daarom dus ook nooit naar mij luisteren – worden ze altijd razend, omdat ik hun dwangmatige OT blootleg, waarmee ze mij en anderen proberen te domineren. Ook al lijkt dit zo,  mijn BT beschuldigt nooit iemand van het hebben van OT, want ik weet maar al te goed, dat iedereen, zich er vanuit onvrijwilligheid, uitsluitend vanwege de conditionering, onbewust, mee bezighoudt.

 

Omdat ik – meer dan wie dan ook – op mijn taal let, begrijp en verwoord ik allerlei zaken, die alleen met BT helder kunnen worden gemaakt. Ik luister naar mezelf terwijl ik spreek en ben daardoor altijd mijn eigen luisteraar. Met BT ben ik dus als eigen publiek veel belangrijker voor mezelf, dan het publiek, dat volgens mij alleen OT kent en mij niet over mijn BT wil horen praten. Ik handel vanuit mijn BT, maar ik wist dat uiteraard nog niet, toen ik nog geen BT kon hebben die verder ging. Iedereen handelt onbewust vanuit de enorme behoefte aan BT, maar aangezien men nooit de eigen voortgaande BT heeft ervaren, is hierover grote verwarring. Er komt alleen een eind aan OT, indien wij beseffen, dat wij, als spreker, niet naar onszelf luisteren en bezig blijven met luisteren naar anderen of met het proberen, om anderen naar ons te doen luisteren. In BT luisteren wij naar onszelf en zo kunnen wij ook met anderen spreken.     

 

Vandaag kwam ik een woord tegen, dat ik nog niet  eerder had gehoord. In de filosofie spreken ze over waarheids-getrouwheid (verisimilitude in Engels), het idee dat sommige stellingen dichter bij de waarheid zouden liggen dan andere. Met onze BT merken we echter, dat we er eindeloos omheen draaien, door maar te blijven praten in termen van dichterbij of verder weg van de waarheid en door elkaar er voortdurend van te beschuldigen, dat we weer niet dicht genoeg bij de waarheid zijn. In OT is dat helaas nog steeds de basis van de wetenschap. Het is altijd ‘de’ zogenaamde objective waarheid, die er alleen maar toe doet, maar nooit onze subjective individuele waarheid. Alleen in BT doet onze eigen ervaring er toe en volgens mij zou BT de basis van de wetenschap moeten zijn. Met OT, dwingen we anderen, om onze ongevoelige, opdringerige en daardoor bevooroordeelde, stomzinnige, bijgelovige manier van omgaan met onze taal te accepteren.

 

De waarheids-gelijkenis, waar 

ik het over had in de vorige 

paragraaf, brengt nog een 

ander gigantisch probleem 

met zich mee. Bij waarheids-getrouwheid 

is er altijd het probleem, om 

duidelijk te kunnen verwoorden, 

dat de ene valse theorie ons zogenaamd 

dichter bij de waarheid zou 

brengen, dan de andere valse 

theorie. Iedereen met BT weet

 echter wel dat degenen met 

OT nooit of te nimmer hun 

eigen waarheid zullen 

uitspreken, horen en daardoor 

dus accepteren. Ze doen het 

altijd voorkomen, alsof hun 

benaderingen van ‘de’ waarheid 

van grotere waarde zou zijn, 

dan hun eigen waarheid, en 

dientengevolge wordt ‘de’

 potsierlijke waarheid altijd

 gedefinieerd in termen van

 iets relatiefs. Met andere 

woorden: met hun perceptie-vertroebelende,

 onnatuurlijke OT kunnen zij zich

zelfs niet eens iets absoluuts voorstellen.

 

Hoewel ik er iedere dag, in duidelijke, begrijpelijke taal over schrijf en praat en ofschoon er altijd een positieve impact wordt gevoeld en herkend, door iedereen die oprecht naar mij luistert, beschuldigen mensen met OT mij – met mijn voortgaande BT, die mijn Taal Verlichting (TV) verwoord – van het voor hen grootste taboe: dat ik absoluut zou zijn. Ze blijven daardoor ten onrechte, bij hoog en bij laag, beweren dat de absolute waarheid van OT en BT niet eens bestaat en slechts een verzinsel van mij zou zijn. Ik vraag me echter af hoe, zij het feit verklaren, dat er overal ter wereld linkse en rechtse politiek bestaat?

 

Omdat de linkse politiek altijd de nadruk legt op groeps-gedrag – omdat het er altijd om gaat, dat regeringen voor het volk beslissen wat zogenaamd goed is hen – sluit linkse ideologie meer aan bij de OT. De rechtse politiek, die zich vooral richt op de individuele vrijheid – waarvan aanvankelijk werd beweerd, dat deze nadruk kwam van god, maar die natuurlijk altijd door mensen werd bepaald – sluit due meer aan bij BT. Alleen de politiek van de vrijheid, heeft in maatschappijen het individuele recht gegarandeerd om onszelf te mogen uiten, ondanks allerlei verschillen en tegenstellingen. Zoals ik echter heb vermeld, zijn benaderingen van BT niet ter zake, want we hebben het of we hebben het niet. Dit is de reden, waarom het grote verschil tussen OT en BT, het wezenlijke probleem van onze tijd is. Met andere woorden, het individualisme is in westerse beschavingen geheel  uit de hand gelopen, omdat we nog nooit de taal hebben erkent, die past en die dus noodzakelijk is bij ons leven vanuit individualiteit.

 

Hoewel ik erken, dat zowel rechts als links elkaar er eindeloos van beschuldigt, dat ze weer liegen dat het gedrukt staat, is het mij ook duidelijk dat OT de taal van politiek en macht is. Eveneens ben ik mij er van bewust, dat alle wetenschappelijke theorieën tot stand zijn gekomen, als gevolg van eerdere theorieën, die bleken voor het grootste deel vals te zijn. Wat we van deze strijd in de geschiedenis van de wetenschap kunnen leren, is dat bijgelovige overtuigingen altijd in strijd zijn geweest met het vergaren van echte kennis. Deze strijd gaat tot op de dag van vandaag door, omdat OT alomtegenwoordig is in elke samenleving, over de gehele wereld.

 

Een andere beschuldiging, die ik in de loop der jaren vaak heb gehoord en waarover ik vaak heb gesproken en geschreven, is dat ik de dingen met mijn BT te simpel zou maken. Zoals iedereen met enige wetenschappelijke kennis zou moeten weten, is het van het allergrootste belang, om de complexiteit terug te brengen tot eenvoudige, samenhangende formuleringen, aangezien dit de manier is waarop we onze realiteit echt kunnen gaan begrijpen. In dit opzicht is het verbazingwekkend en teleurstellend, dat na al mijn jaren van studeren en lesgeven in de psychologie, geen enkele gerenommeerde persoon  de noodzaak van BT heeft erkend en met woord en daad heeft ondersteund, aangezien OT inherent is voor bevooroordeeld, onwetenschappelijk gedrag.  Ik verdien zonder meer een Ph.D. voor het schrijven van deze blog en als iemand met enige academische invloed dit ooit zou lezen, laat hem of haar mij dan maar eens uitnodigen, om mijn zaak te presenteren,  dan zal alles wat ik zeg onthuld worden. Ik heb het over iets heel belangrijks, namelijk, de toekomst van de mensheid.
