Story,

 

I just finished reading a book.

 

It was the story of one person, who was catching up with her history.

 

The entire story was about how everything that had happened, had led to what is happening today.

 

Actually, it was about language, the right language, that is, the language, which expressed what has really happened, which explained, why what was happening today, had to happen.

 

There is still another interpretation: supposedly, it was a successful attempt at saying what couldn’t be said in the past.

 

Of course, it is as impossible to say things today, as it was in the past and that is why people write and read books.

 

Disembodied Language (DL) is the language of our history, which never allows us to be where we are today.  

 

With DL, we don’t even have the possibility to be conscious of what is happening now, because we are preoccupied with what has happened to us in the past.

 

DL creates the illusion, that we can understand our past and then, finally, be present.

 

The Biden administration keeps trying to play the race-card or the victim-card.

 

They gas-light the American people by telling them  that everything is going great, while everyone knows, things are spinning out of control.

 

Surely, Trump is to be blamed for everything that is wrong, because nothing of what is happening has anything to do with the America-hating, communist, racists, anti-free-speech left.

 

The border-czar Kamala Harris is saying that Israel should stop fighting Hamas, as she realizes, the prognosis, for re-election, doesn’t look as good as she has previously imagined with her word-salad.

 

No doubt, Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) has caused more harm than Covid, because stressed-out Jill Biden is coming out of the woodwork and hurling accusations: Orange Man is dangerous for women.

 

Apparently, the weaponization of the courts and the demonization of half the country is back-firing and the question, which came first, the chicken or the egg, is settled, as the chickens have come home to roost: the Supreme court in Colorado unanimously decided Trump cannot be thrown off the ballot.    

 

Although nobody really knows anything precisely and accurately – like I do – about the difference between our usual, negative, mechanical DL and our positive, natural, effortless Embodied Language (EL), everyone has, at least, some sense of what is DL and what is EL.

 

Based on our current, incomplete, minimal, written, sublimated, insensitive understanding of what is DL and what is EL, we all somehow know, that dull DL will prevail, although claims will be made, to make it seem as if it has changed into EL.

 

The photo-Opp of awkward Biden or slick Newsom, at the border, is to make people believe, they have things under control, and we shouldn’t worry about the millions of unknown new-comers, who, they hope, vote left.

 

All politics is DL, which creates the illusion, the right narrative will bring us in touch with reality.

 

Only the right tone signifies, our DL has stopped, and our EL is occurring.

 

The sound of our voice heralds a new era of human relationship.

 

We will only have a sound, which creates order, if we listen to ourselves, while we speak.

 

In Cymatics – look up that word – we can see and know how sound waves affect matter and in exactly the same way, we will be able to witness the natural order emerging from our own EL.

 

With ongoing EL, we are aware of the magnificent beauty, which is the reality of our Language Enlightenment (LE).

 

Our EL liberates us from our past with DL, which we will no longer create in our future, as it allows us to verbalize our experiences in the present.

I still want to write a little on this blog, but in a different way than I did before. 

I write simple sentences like this, which sometimes are about nothing in particular. 

I like to write about nothing. 

I like to speak about nothing. 

I talk about silence and yes, you can do that too. 

Speaking about silence creates silence. 

To me, that is the essence of Embodied Language (EL). 

In Disembodied Language (DL), you make only noise and problems.  

With DL, you are not in touch with yourself. 

With DL, you are not allowed to talk about silence. 

With DL, your silence is fake and that is why we are not allowed to talk about it. 

I talk with my EL about your DL, because I can.

You can talk with your EL about your DL too.

Blasphemy,

 

Please, read very carefully, what I am about to tell you. Blasphemy is the act of insulting or showing contempt or lack of reverence for God. My freedom of speech, to say what I want to say, and to believe what I say – rather than to believe and say what others say – also is blasphemy, in many non-Christian countries. You will get yourself in trouble, anywhere, if you say, you don’t believe in their local belief. A little less known, is that blasphemy is the act of claiming the attributes of some deity. Acting as if you are God, is considered, cross-culturally, as a sin. Basically, it is taboo in every culture, to be your own authority.   

 

I immigrated, legally, in 1999, from the Netherlands, to the United States. I am a proud US citizen, who is definitely going to vote for Donald J. Trump. This writing is especially meant for my fellow Americans, many of whom, in my opinion, have become utterly complacent and ignorant, about their individual freedoms, which are, as of yet, still enshrined in the Declaration of Independence. A similar tendency – to give up on the individualistic culture – is happening in all Western societies, who have enjoyed peace and prosperity, since the end of the Second World War.

 

As an American, as a citizen of the free world, but, foremostly, as the individual, who has discovered psychological gold – my Language Enlightenment (LE) – with his Embodied Language (EL), I am acutely aware, our so-called inalienable rights, didn’t come from some mystical higher power, but from myself and anyone, who bravely fought or died, to defend our freedom. To me, Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness, have absolutely nothing to do with any religion! Since practically all the people on the left, these days are, sheepishly, blatantly, insidiously, disgustingly, disrespectfully against the freedom of speech, I am in favor of right-wing politics, as it is more aligned with EL, than woke lefties, who are more likely to punish it as blasphemy, than the right.  

 

Conservative Christians consider it blasphemy, when left wing zealots attempt to rewrite the foundational principals of our country. However, their insistence and emphasis on God, isn’t helping them in winning the election. Only someone like me – with EL – can understand, why this is the case. Interestingly, all the socialists and the communists – who virulently hate America, want to destroy it, and, presumably, then rebuild it, from the bottom up – unknowingly, view big government, as the replacement of God.  

 

Modern, secular, technologically- savvy Americans, for the most part – like Europeans, in spite of their own superstitions and hang-ups – are never going to go back to the unscientific nonsense, that has been preached in the name every religion. The genie of individualism is out of the bottle, the freight-train of individualism has already left the station, the horse of freedom has left the barn. And, unbeknownst to everyone, everywhere, our mechanical, unnatural, forceful, senseless Disembodied Language (DL) is on its deathbed, as individualism has given rise to EL.

 

Both the left and right political parties are frantically virtue-signaling, by constantly accusing each other of blasphemy. Each party claims to have the moral high ground and, presumably, is on the right side of history. However, only when we transcend our tragic history of conditioning with dull DL, are we going to be on the right side of history. EL is the real future of mankind, not DL. Our problematic, stubborn DL is the language of punishment, but – whether we will be courageous enough, to admit it – individualism requires our EL, which is the language of positive reinforcement. Both parties consider anyone as sacrilegious, who disagrees with their contentious, but, supposedly, holy narrative. The argument that our individual rights come from God is flawed and is outdated, as we all know, that millions of lives have been sacrificed, so that others could enjoy freedom.

 

The famous philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche once said, God is dead, but the fallacy of our superstition has continued unabated, due to our unconscious DL, which was never properly addressed. No matter how individual or liberated we believe ourselves to be, we still adhere to DL, the brutal, anti-intellectual way of way of talking, that has been going on, ever since human beings became verbal. Our shift from DL to EL, is the quintessential issue of our time, as it is going to determine, whether free, individualized societies, will be able to continue to exist, in the face of the relentless onslaught of group-behaviors, which are instilled and maintained by our dumb DL.

 

As long as individuals of free nations engage in DL, they seem to have no real backbone, as they, again and again, adhere to the very group-behavior, which contradicts and undermines individualism. There is hardly any EL, anywhere, in the so-called democratic societies, because our EL is religiously and cowardly considered, as heresy, by anyone with DL. Although we are – due to our, primarily, Christian founding fathers and due to our Constitution – on paper, in writing, only in name, free individuals, each of us, has yet to become a whole, enlightened individual, who always expresses LE, as his or her only real freedom, and who pursues his or her happiness with his or her ongoing EL.

 

I keep hearing – both left and right – stupid rhetoric about some sort of crusade against evil, but nobody addresses our common, unconscious, coercive, repetitive, dissociative, unintelligent way of talking, which is antithetical to our freedom as individuals. We are constantly swayed by others, as we don’t have the fortitude, which comes from distinguishing between our own DL and our own EL. To make wise decisions and to take actions, independently, requires ongoing EL.

 

The sad fact, that so many people on the right, have had their social media accounts cancelled and are even banned from speaking about their ideas – as people on the left have decided, it is blasphemy, shows that idiotic religious zealotry is alive and well on the presumably secular left. Surely, it is because of our DL, that America has become a country in which people are persecuted and punished for their political views.

 

There is, however, a bright side to the freedom-hating cancel-culture, as it is quite apparent, that those who have the power,  to prevent large audiences from hearing, what others want to say and want them to know, and, those, who control the media, who can prevent the public from reading what others have written, they are clearly not interested at all in what anyone is, presumably, thinking. Indeed, all they really care about, is what is being said, heard, written or read. This irrefutable fact shows that any emphasis on our so-called belief, on thoughts, on the language, which is said to occur inside of us, is superfluous.

 

In DL, we inadvertently believe in private speech or inner language, also known as our mind, but in EL, we are absolutely sure, that all language is and has always been overt. And, yes, the truth is, we have, until now, with our DL, always been trying, to shut each other up, outcompete each other with what we say, win the argument or struggle for attention – which is the main characteristic of DL - and our stressful world of chaos, divisiveness and conflict is the result. Any difference of opinion is seen by millions of people as blasphemy, a crime for which people are imprisoned, tortured and murdered, all over the place, because we refuse to acknowledge the difference between our DL and EL, which has allowed our coercive, brutal, ugly DL to continue.

 

With our EL, we are the creator of our own lives, and we are in charge of our own destiny, as our language makes us into empowered individuals, who can accurately describe their own experience. Our sense of resilience and oneness is the essence of our individuality. Our ongoing EL reveals our LE and results in a wordless silence – as there are no words or thoughts inside of our heads – from where more of our effortless, delightful EL emerges. 

There has always been a conflict between religionists and those who pursue scientific knowledge. Many times, what was known was lost. The earth is round, not flat, and it is equally true, that there is no language, no mind, no sentences, no thoughts inside of us, as this is just the way we talk, because of DL, in which we cannot really express ourselves, in the way we want to and are able to. As the person, who has discovered his EL and who has realized his LE, I know very well, that LE is considered as a blasphemy by everyone who still engages in DL, but I feel fortunate, to have become an American, for who freedom means the celebration of my EL and LE. I challenge and invite everyone to have EL with me. As long as we keep accusing each other of blasphemy, we don’t live in twenty-first century and our hard-fought individual freedoms will be lost, as we have wasted our chance, to take our individualism truly to the next level.              

 

Ecstasy,

 

I am not talking about the drug MDMA, but about the wonderful experience you keep missing out on, due to your miserable Disembodied Language (DL). Embodied Language (EL) is to language of ecstasy, because it allows you to express, in your own words, your Language Enlightenment (LE). Of course, there are conditions, in which your ecstasy is possible and those, in which it cannot happen. You either create these conditions, with your language, or you don’t.

 

We are so used to creating unhappiness with our DL, that we accept it as normal, but once we know the great difference between our DL and our EL, we no longer want to be deprived of our wellbeing and we seek to stop our participation in DL, so we can begin to have EL and experience our liveliness. With DL, we were having a dismal view of ourselves and of the world, as we have no idea, we create our own depressing reality, with how we deal with language.

 

Ecstasy is our natural way of being. Anything less than that, simply implies, we are using our language incorrectly. Yes, we are almost constantly using our language in such a way, that we are not in charge of it. Therefore, our experience of who we are, is taken away, by our DL. We will only come to our senses, when we become the masters of our own language, by listening to ourselves while we speak. Unless we can experience our own ecstasy, while we speak, we don’t have EL, as we still, unknowingly, engage in DL.

 

EL is a conscious act, but we are unaware, as long as we still have DL. It is only when our murky DL has been stopped, that we realize, we were having it. The moment in which we shift from DL to EL, we experience immediate bliss and we say truthful and meaningful things. As soon as our EL gets going, we are conscious of our enlightenment. Our ecstasy is, to engage in EL, the language which creates space.  

 

The ecstasy experienced in EL isn’t some mystical phenomenon. In DL, people mistake some spiritual hype for ecstasy, but the joy which is felt during EL is very ordinary, because we speak our own language. Actually, the ecstasy of our ongoing EL is better than having an orgasm or anything else we have ever felt. Once we have experienced it, we are sure, that we can and we will achieve it, again and again, with our unfolding language. Our LE is the ecstasy of stillness.

 

Although it takes time to get used to our LE, with our EL, our ecstasy isn’t an overwhelming emotional sense of exaltation, but a cool, comfortable, natural, effortless process, over which we have control. We create it. We use our language correctly, to express each of our experiences. Everything is articulated. Everything belongs to us, is accepted by us and is understood by us, even all our difficult experiences.

 

The fact that – due to our EL - everything finds its place and, therefore, our new language creates and maintains order, is a form of ecstasy, we have never before experienced. The silence, which follows after we have spoken, is profoundly ecstatic, because we no longer believe in inner language. Thus, when we stop speaking – or listening, writing or reading – we are truly without any language. Our experience of oneness, that is, our LE, is the total absence of language.

 

Innocence,

 

With our habitual Disembodied Language (DL), we try to feign innocence, but the reality is, that we are polluted, twisted and carried away by our language. We can only be innocent, sensitive, open, truthful, authentic and full of delightful energy, when we can experience the silence of our Embodied Language (EL). To know, who we are, is to be who we are and to hear and feel, that we speak with an enjoyable, natural, effortless voice, which doesn’t ask anyone’s attention. Our EL is the language of our innocence, which expresses our Language Enlightenment (LE).

 

Once we know the crucially important difference between our DL and our EL, we can’t help, but fully acknowledge and mourn the painful fact, that our innocence has always been disrespected, abused, taken for granted and neglected by our DL. Although we have always felt, who we were, we were unable to be who we were, because we didn’t have access to the language of virtue, goodness and simplicity.

 

Each time we have expressed our innocence, we did so, because we couldn’t help ourselves, that is, we expressed our EL, unknowingly. Whenever there is a situation in which there can be peace, togetherness, wellbeing, honesty and love, we, inevitably, briefly, express our EL, but it is always short-lived, because we don’t do it consciously, skillfully or continuously. Our delightful innocence is one moment there, but next moment, it is gone, and we are at a loss, about has happened. We are in despair, and we feel afraid, as we have no way of finding it back. Our anguish of not having the language, to express our innocence, continuous, until we can finally have ongoing EL.

 

Even once we have stopped our dreadful DL and are able to continue with our wonderful EL, we are still learning how to live with our innocence, which is, of course, our LE. While it is true, we have always been who we are, we still fear our precious experience of innocence won’t last, as this was always before the case. However, when we were imprisoned by and unconsciously engaged in DL, we still believed, that language existed inside of us, but once we have EL, we realize, this was just an effect of DL, in which we couldn’t be ourselves, as we couldn’t say what we wanted to say and, therefore, we began to imagine, we were having private speech, thoughts or a mind.

 

During our blunt DL, our innocence is replaced with guilt and shame, and, consequently, paradoxically, we feel bad about who we really are, that is, we feel bad about feeling good about ourselves. It isn’t until we say this out loud and hear the sound of our own wellbeing, that we recover from this trauma and laugh about the false notion of our inner, supposedly verbal turmoil. Stated differently, once we can verbally, with our EL, accurately address our own innocence, we feel the silence, which emerges from our pre-verbal sense of being. We have come full circle with our language.    

 

Our innocence makes us recognize the innocence of others. We are all, unknowingly, enlightened, but, as of yet, we don’t have the EL, which fits with who we really are. Without stopping our DL, every attempt to find back our innocence is doomed. None of our religions, or spiritual, therapeutic, psychological, philosophical or cultural practices have ever resulted in EL, as they have never properly addressed DL, as the language of evil. When, at long last, we stop our miserable DL and are able to express our – for the lack of a better word – sacred innocence with our EL, we are not selfless, mystical, fantasy creatures, but we are courageous, knowledgeable authorities.

 

We have lost our ability to feel, express and know the beauty of our innocence, due to how we deal with our language. Obviously, only another way of dealing with our language could bring us back to who we are. In EL, we listen to ourselves, but in DL we don’t listen to ourselves. In EL, we can speak as an individual, but in DL, we act out our conditioning history, as we can only see ourselves, as a member of some group, which, we imagine, we belong to.      

 

Shame,

 

Our common notion of shame, is determined by how others have spoken and written about it, but not by how we ourselves have spoken about it – with ourselves – let alone, by how we – also with ourselves – have written about it. In other words, shame – the painful, verbally-impairing emotion  about how one appears to others and to oneself, without having done anything – is based on our almost permanent involvement in Disembodied Language (DL). I would say, DL is the language of shame. In DL, we make a distinction between shame and guilt. I have never been able, to quite tell them apart, because my reasoning has always been based on my Embodied Language (EL), even while I was still incapable of fully, consciously, recognizing the great difference between my own DL and my EL.

 

In DL, our sense of shame pertains to a person, whereas guilt pertains to an action or actions and to blame and remorse. With our self-defeating DL, we, unknowingly, blame ourselves, because others have blamed us. Stated differently, we were conditioned to constantly beat ourselves up and that is why we can never be happy or satisfied, as long as we keep having DL. Our shift from DL to EL is so relieving, as we finally experience our language without shame.

 

Guilt – during our mechanical DL – involves the awareness of having done something wrong and always arises from our actions. Obviously, in DL, we are always – no matter how much we can dominate,  deceive or manipulate others – feeling guilty about our own language. The sad fact, that we don’t and can’t express our own language in DL and that we don’t and can’t express our own experience, doesn’t mean, we don’t have our own language and also doesn’t mean, we don’t have our own experience.  

 

Shame is the inevitable, paralyzing emotion, which is elicited by our common way of talking, which has set the stage for how we deal with language. Since all our other behaviors are regulated by how we deal with our language, our entire behavioral repertoire is contaminated by shame in DL. To be able to continue with our EL – rather than having only a few brief haphazard moments of it – we will have to recognize and abandon all behaviors that were associated with our DL and continue only with those behaviors, which are in support of our EL.  

 

There is a reason why, in everyday language, people use the terms shame and guilt interchangeably and why I used to feel so confused about this presumed difference. Since I happened to be the person, who – because he began to repeatedly talk out loud with himself, and, therefore, was able to hear the sound of his own voice – has discovered the big difference between his DL and his EL, I have been made to feel ashamed and guilty, like no one else. I have studied psychology, and I am well-aware, that according to psychologists, there is a difference, between the experience of shame and guilt, but I will use this opportunity, to point out, that psychology hasn’t delivered and couldn’t improve human relationship, as it has never addressed the difference between DL and EL. Stated bluntly, our DL has continued unabated.

 

Our dreadful, unnatural, coercive DL is not only the language of shame, but also the language of guilt and, I should add, the language of distraction. Our DL has endlessly distracted us – as individuals – from our how we – ourselves – have continued to use our language. This whole issue of consciousness has always obfuscated how we use our language. DL inevitably results in meaningless hair-splitting and in definitions and concepts, which make things worse.

 

With ubiquitous, highly problematic, unintelligent DL, we were led to believe – actually, we have all been punitively indoctrinated – that our guilt and shame sometimes go hand in hand. Surely, the same action may give rise to feelings of both shame and guilt, where the former reflects how we feel about ourselves and the latter involves an awareness that our actions, supposedly, have injured someone else. As long as we have not acknowledged the difference between our DL and EL, we interpret everything according to our DL. 

 

Although it may appear that way, in the beginning, when you engage in EL and leave behind those who still continue with DL, it seems as if you harm them, but in fact, you do them a great favor, because you no longer reinforce their DL. Our DL isn’t continued because we decide to continue it, but because it is reinforced in the environments, we are in. We have never been in stable environments in which our EL is reinforced. It was due to DL, that our feelings of shame, seem to only relate to who we are, but our feelings of guilt are about others. This meaningless distinction doesn’t address DL, which creates and maintains the notion, that talking with ourselves and listening to ourselves is of no importance at all. When you, for the first time, by yourself, all alone, engage in EL, you will begin to really sense, how ashamed you are, to speak by yourself. You haven’t done anything to anyone, and you don’t do anything to yourself either, but you simply speak and listen to yourself and find, how different this is from how you speak with others. As you notice the change in the sound of your voice, you will hear less and less fear, anxiety, stress, distraction or judgment about saying something wrong. Whether you talk about yourself or about someone else, with your EL you always talk about yourself, that is, you always express your own wellbeing. The other, with whom, for the most part, you couldn’t have any EL, as he or she still engages in DL, always makes you feel ashamed, as you will notice, that your EL can never meet with their DL.

 

The typical guilt feeling of having remorse for some offense, crime, wrong – real or imagined – always is an indication of our involvement in insensitive DL. Likewise, shame – the painful feeling arising from the awareness of your real self, by saying, admitting, accepting, recognizing, and, acting on, what is true, and what is, therefore, good for you – turns EL, the language of freedom, success and happiness, into something ridiculous, improper, shameful or dishonorable.

 

I heard someone tell an anecdote, which hopefully will bring home my message, which is that DL our usual way of dealing with language really sucks. This person had been at some dinner party, where he had argued and reacted to a friend and then he had said something hurtful. Later, he felt guilty about what he had said, but he felt also embarrassed and ashamed, that he had been the sort of person to behave in that way. It is very clear, that he regretted his DL, but since he doesn’t view it that way, he will go on with DL, in the same way it always continues.

 

Another utterly useless distinction is the difference between shame and humiliation. These meaningless concepts haven’t addressed, let alone, stopped the DL, which creates and maintains them. Presumably, shame is an internal, but humiliation is an external matter. However, there absolutely is no such a thing as an internal process, as language is always overt. The fact that this isn’t acknowledged in psychology doesn’t make it any less true. In closing, I want to also define DL as the language of humiliation. We are continuously publicly humiliated, when in the name of DL, we are told to know our place in our inherently violent and conflicted social hierarchy. We have all been traumatized by our long history of conditioning with DL, which has deprived us of our dignity, which is who we really are, and which can only be expressed with our ongoing EL. Moreover, our Language Enlightenment (LE), which, of course, can only be expressed by our ongoing EL, is the only way to truly overcome the humiliation which occurs – every day – when a person is publicly or privately shamed, with DL, by another person or group.
