 Direction,

 

Without Embodied Language (EL), we have no direction in our lives. We are, literally, all over the place with our Disembodied Language (DL), and whatever we do, it has no meaning, as far as being true to ourselves. Stated differently, with DL, we move away from ourselves, into all sorts of activities, but with our EL, we come to and stay with, who we truly are. In other words, with ongoing EL, we look back on our history of conditioning with DL, as we face the direction from which we have come. Everything we have claimed to be – our so-called identity – is our past, but with EL, something new can emerge.

 

The word direction, comes Latin, directionem, a making straight, a straight line; directio, a directing toward something; from di-rigere, to set straight, arrange, to give a particular direction to; from dis – which means, apart + regere – which means, to direct, to guide, keep straight. We only have the capacity to direct our language during EL, as only in EL do we let our language unfold. In DL, by contrast, we repeat, that is, our negative verbal past is our future.

 

With our usual way of talking, that is, with DL, we are inevitably heading into the direction of our past. Only if we listen to ourselves while we speak and engage in EL, can we immediately, effortlessly, redirect ourselves and step out of our conditioning history with DL. However, it makes no sense, to only do this once or twice or whenever we, feel like it, as our conditioning history with DL, will only lose its grip, when we understand, by speaking, listening, writing and reading, that the direction of our EL, is always about the here and now. Therefore, we are in the here and now, because we speak and listen simultaneously. Also, we write and on our You Tube channel, we read our own writing. In other words, what we have said is documented.

 

Obviously, due to our DL, we are, unknowingly, all used to take direction from others. We like to believe, we determine our own direction, but once we identify the difference between our DL and EL, we realize, we were mechanically going in a direction, we didn’t want to go. Surely, our freedom, is to go into the direction, we want to go. However, this is not a matter of choice, but of our ability to stop our DL, so that we are able to instruct ourselves differently. As we verbally give attention, to whatever was asking our attention, our direction is fully understood, because with our ongoing EL, we are always expressing our Language Enlightenment (LE).

 

With regard to switching from DL to EL, there is no such a thing, as moving into the direction of the solution. There are no approximations of EL, you either have it or you don’t and if you have it, you know, you have it, immediately. There is no gradual movement, in the right direction and such language belongs to our DL, in which we believe to be working towards a better future.

 

Everyone who seriously explores the difference between their own DL and EL, will have admit, being alone, is necessary, to find your own direction. As long as you remain busy with others, you are bound to take directions from them. Social conditioning is such, that listening, always means, listening to the someone else. You break an ancient taboo in EL, because by listening to yourself, you go against the group. In DL, authority was someone else, but with your ongoing EL, you are our own authority.

 

Water flows down-hill; thus, it naturally goes in a particular direction. The exact same principle applies to our language, but, of course, only, if we listen to ourselves, while we speak. With ongoing EL, we always say, without any problem, with great precision, care, understanding and joy, what we are experiencing. Moreover, our EL is majestically silent, even while it is a roaring waterfall or rapid. Our LE isn’t the ocean, in which the river ends, but the current itself. We are alive and awake, because we are natural.

 

When we visualize taking steps into the right direction, we miss out on what it is like, to say and hear, that we have found our direction. In DL, we attempt to go forcefully from point A to point B and we imagine and strive for a straight line, but in EL, we are receptive, silent, gentle, creative and moved by our positive emotions. With ongoing EL, we are home in our LE, and we aren’t going anywhere, as we are happy to be where we are.

 Freedom,

 

We only talk about freedom, because we are not free. When you have Embodied Language (EL), like me, you are free and freedom is not an issue. Freedom is only an issue, if you engage in Disembodied Language (DL). During DL, which is your usual way of talking, you are willing to do just about anything, to, supposedly, be free, but with your DL, you are only able to create the illusion of freedom. Freedom requires EL.

 

If one has to die for one’s so-called freedom, it is not freedom, but it is merely the illusion of freedom, that one dies for. When you know the difference between DL and EL, you will naturally want to stop your idiotic DL, so you can have ongoing EL and, then, you will never want to be a martyr anymore, as you give up on all your fighting.

 

Freedom is not – as everyone with DL believes – a reaction, to what has been done to us. As long as we are still reacting, to being imprisoned, to being oppressed, humiliated, insulted, rejected, abandoned, violated, abused and traumatized, we are not free. EL, the language of freedom, is not reactive. Indeed, with EL, we don’t need to jump through any hoops, and, we don’t need to overcome anything, to have EL, as we can have our EL, effortlessly, in spite of all our problems.

 

One of the most astonishing aspects about our EL, is that, we are able to naturally, comfortably and without any practice, continue with it and then, realize our Language Enlightenment (LE), which is, who we are, once we have ongoing EL. In other words, we always have access to our ultimate state. Who we have always been and  will always be, is immediately recognized with our EL, even if we have it only for one moment.

 

There is no secret path to freedom. If you lack the courage to talk with yourself and to listen to yourself, you are simply a coward, like everyone else, who keeps engaging in DL. Your freedom doesn’t depend on your happiness, as it is your happiness and freedom doesn’t depend on your courage, because it is your courage. Likewise, your freedom is your conscious, your wellbeing, your authenticity, your motivation and your resilience. Surely, your freedom is also your self-control, your accountability and responsibility.

 

People who warn, that we can’t have freedom as well as peace, they don’t know what they are talking about. For everyone with DL, it seems as if freedom and peace are separate, but they are not. It is very clear, our so-called freedom, in which we have, unknowingly, continued with our DL, didn’t and couldn’t result in peace. It wasn’t freedom to begin with, because our mechanical DL was never addressed by our EL.

 

With DL, people say, our freedom isn’t given and, therefore, you must take it, to have it, but with our ongoing EL, we realize our freedom is neither given nor taken. During EL, freedom is received and perceived because we are open. Also, we are not – as is said with DL – as free as we want to be, because there are no degrees of freedom. Only with ongoing EL, are we going to experience and understand the total freedom of our LE. Nothing can get in the way of our EL, because we don’t participate in DL anymore.

 

Conformity isn’t the enemy of freedom, as our freedom doesn’t have any enemies. People who are used to DL, are incapable of accepting and experiencing, there can be an environment, in which there is no threat or no aversive stimuli. However, such a growth-stimulating, stable and safe environment, is created and maintained by our ongoing EL. When we finally have ongoing EL, we will for the first time be exposed to such a supportive environment and be able to say and comprehend many things, which, with our DL, previously, we couldn’t grasp or understand.

 

A person’s dedication to freedom or EL, doesn’t have anything to do with patriotism. Due to our DL, we have come to equate one with the other, but freedom and ongoing EL – which accurately expresses it – is cross-cultural or universal. There is, however, absolutely no such imaginary thing as the freedom of thought, as thought was the illusion of inner language, created by our DL.

 

Freedom is the behavior, we have, when our language matches with our experience. This can only be the case in EL and DL has to be stopped before we can begin to have any EL. All our talk about freedom couldn’t result in freedom, since we haven’t recognized and stopped our DL. Any one, who explores the difference between their DL and EL, comes to acknowledge, that EL, our individual freedom, is constantly, everywhere, prevented and ignored by those, who have DL. People with DL are never free, because their DL is outdated group-behavior. Only an individual, who is free from the pressure of others, can have EL and express his or her LE, the language of freedom.

 Real,

 

During your usual way of talking – which has set the stage for how you deal with your language and determines how you behave – you cannot be real, because you don’t listen to yourself while you speak. Your Disembodied Language (DL) doesn’t allow you to be in touch with your feelings, let alone express them in a satisfying manner. The fact, that you don’t know how to talk about your emotions with DL, makes you do many neurotic things, because you try in vain to find relief from your negative feelings.

 

The only way in which you can talk about your feelings in a positive manner, is if you listen to yourself while you speak and, thus, engage in Embodied Language (EL). Although you may still be processing the negative feelings, which you weren’t able to express and dissolve with your DL, with ongoing EL, you can talk about these familiar negative feelings, without getting again carried away. Your EL invites and allows you to address everything you weren’t able to address with DL. It is very moving to heal from your DL.

 

In DL – which, I repeat, is our common way of talking – it is not only impossible to express your feelings sensitively and calmly, but if you try, you are always made to feel, as if you are doing something wrong, which, ironically, is true. However, it is only true, from an EL point of view, but not from a DL point of view. With DL, we viciously judge our own and each other’s feelings. Moreover, since we all fail to express our emotions and our experiences correctly, in DL, we are made to feel, as if we should keep our negative as well as our positive feelings to ourselves and always speak in a non-emotional, supposedly, rational manner. Surely, in DL, we are incapable of being rational, as our negative feelings get in the way. We can only be rational, when we have positive emotions, but we need to have EL to maintain and express our positive feelings.

 

During DL, you either hear people apologizing for their feelings – but they never really mean it, because they have been made to feel guilty about what they are feeling – or you will hear people say, you should never apologize for how you feel. For people, who only know DL, being real, means the irresponsible, blunt, forceful expression of their negative emotions, without considering how this affects others. Surely, we should never apologize for being real, but being real has nothing to do, with the unconscious unloading of our negative hyped-up emotions.

 

When we finally express the inevitably negative feelings and experiences of our DL – with EL – we are mourning the great trauma, that was endured by all of mankind, since the beginning of time. When I first discovered that I could talk out loud with myself and listen to the sound of my own voice and effortlessly produce my own EL, I was overcome by a deep sense of sorrow. Each time, I took time, to talk with myself and listen to myself, I was in tears. EL makes crying easy. In EL, my tears became my biggest friends.

 

I once talked about the DL/EL distinction with someone, who taught acting. He seemed very interested, initially, but when I told him, all acting is DL, he began to argue with me. In EL, we don’t act, because we are real. While I could understand, why he would say, that acting is about being real and being honest, I would say, with my EL, that acting is a failed attempt at EL.

 

Our infatuation with acting, movies, TV, social media, amusement, books or anything we can read – which always distracts us from our own language – keeps us stuck and busy with DL, in which others, supposedly, are more important, that is, more real or, presumably, more capable or special, than we ourselves. However, those, in DL, who manage to get the attention are those who demand it and struggle for it. In EL, speakers never demand the listener’s attention, as each speaker is his or her own listener.

 

In DL, we say: seeing is believing. However, EL has nothing to do with believing, because it is about being real. Moreover, in DL, something is considered to be real, because, supposedly, it has objective independent existence. Yet, in EL, we recognize, with our novel use of language, that everything, which, presumably, exists independently from us, is, in fact, neurally-behaved by us. In other words, there is no reality and there cannot be any reality, separate from our own experience. However, we will crash to the ground, if we believe, we can fly and jump from a roof.  

After students leave school, to get a job, they are said to go and live in the real world. It is interesting, to take note of the fact, that the somewhat protected college or university environment, is, by default, depicted as unreal, while having a real job in the real world is real. Certainly, the real world, isn’t the supportive environment, contrasted with a student’s life. In other words, the real is, basically, described as if it is difficult, serious, unprotected and having nothing to do with the experience of comfort. Our notion of what is real is different whether it derives from our DL or our EL. With our dumb, unconscious DL, we falsely believe, we live in hell, but with our EL, we really live the good life.

 Red Guards,

 

All of mankind’s problems are problems of repetition. We repeat the same Disembodied Language (DL). Our problems can be addressed and will only be solved with a different kind of language. Embodied Language (EL) is the only way in which the problems, which were caused and maintained by DL can be solved. In DL, the speakers do not listen to themselves, but in EL the speakers do listen to themselves and experience the new.

 

Obviously, history is again repeating itself with the disgustingly antisemitic campus protests. The blatant lack of leadership at universities is sickening and it is indoctrination from the Democratic Left, which has brought this about. I want the reader to know, however, that the escalation of hatred into violence, is the predictable pattern of our common DL, which goes in every society around the world.

 

Although we have been able to extend our periods of relative peace somewhat, there is, with our inherently coercive way of talking, always, eventually, an inevitable intensification of aggression. Americans, but also Europeans, should listen to Lily Tang Williams, who grew up experiencing extremely poor living conditions, food rationing, social chaos and Communist indoctrination. She survived Mao’s Zedong’s Cultural Revolution in communist China and came to America, where she is currently running for congress. Who better, to recognize, that these protesters are the same as Mao’s Red Guards, then this trained lawyer, with a master’s degree in administration and planning? She should be all over the news, but the main-stream media wouldn’t let her speak out against the insanity of the Left, because, according to the cancelling Biden administration, she is an evil MAGA Republican.

 

Since my wife’s parents have also escaped from Mao’s purge – which killed millions and millions of people – by leaving everything behind and by starting with absolutely nothing in the United States and since I have read many books about this horrific topic, I view these ignorant Marxist hordes, who have taken over all of the major educational institutions, with their contagious anti-Isael, anti-American, but, ultimately, anti-individual freedom rhetoric, as the enemy within and an imminent threat to Western civilization.

 

These screaming, righteous protesters represent DL on steroids. In case people still don’t know this, the Red Guards, in 1966, were a mass, student-led, paramilitary social movement, mobilized by Chairman Mao, until they were abolished in 1968, during the first phase of the Cultural Revolution. Mao’s ‘little generals’ had unleashed a period of ‘red terror’ and viciously persecuted teachers, lynched suspected class enemies and created an atmosphere of fear. Similarly to what happens today, radicals use propaganda to seize power by destroying ‘old’ symbols. Laws are changed and no longer enforced, statues are torn down and the Constitution, supposedly, needs to be thrown away. Traditional Chinese culture – The Four Olds: old ideas, old culture, old customs, old habits – had to be demolished according to these supposedly modern idealistic people.  

 

Nobody can deny that the same intimidation and violence is currently perpetrated – with full approval – by those, who hide behind the man, who claims to be saving democracy. All of this is the result of DL. To view what is happening in America from the perspective of someone, who is able to have ongoing EL, it is clear, we are heading for very hard times, as there are no demonstrations from the Right and practically all means of communication belong to powerful people on the Left. Sadly, there are many Republicans In Name Only (RINOS), treasonous individuals, who have given up on American sovereignty and colluded with the Democrats, to leave the border wide open. Likewise, in Europe, many countries have fallen victim to the globalist-Marxist' agenda. 


Generally, people down-play the ongoing protests as non-violent, but in China, there were, beheadings, beatings, live burials, stonings, drownings, boilings, group slaughters, disembowelings, digging out hearts, livers, genitals, slicing of flesh, blowing up with dynamite, and more, no method remained unused by the Red Guards. Something like this is very well possible in any country, because in communist rule there is apparently not enough room at the top for everyone.

 

The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) rolled over its citizens - Tiananmen Square - with tanks, while here in the United States, many people are in jails with no trials and the law is turned against its own citizens. Moreover, Mao had students kill their teachers and the young kill the old, including their own family. If we – people on the right – compare what is happening in America, to the collapse of other Western Democratic countries, we should realize, that it isn’t communists, who never change or evolve and who channel and organize human evil, wherever they seize power, but it is DL.

 

All savagery and brutality deal with DL and, the only way in which our DL is ever going to stop, is if we are going to talk about the difference between our DL and our EL. Only the people who live in Western Democratic countries, have the opportunity to openly distinguish between DL and EL and acknowledge, that DL was never really communication in the first place, but the pretention that we were talking and listening. In the name of our so-called communication, we have always been dominating, manipulating, distracting, forcing, intimidating and harassing. Only when we know the difference between DL and EL, will we choose EL and base our actions on EL. Real communication is the key to solving all our problems, but we have never tried, let alone, experienced, ongoing EL.

 

Today, I also read about a courageous North Korean person, Yeonmi Park, who, in spite of a tremendous amount of suffering and torment at the hands of the Communists, managed to escape through China to America. Of course, it is no coincidence, that miss Park, like Lily Tang Williams, gravitated toward the Republican Party, because she recognizes the treacherous Communist tendencies in the Democratic Party. The biggest critics of the far Left and Biden’s Communistic regime are the real refugees from communist countries. They have good reason for it and, yet they too, don’t address the DL, that is causing this and has done so, throughout human history. DL has never been properly addressed with ongoing EL. In other words, Western Democratic countries have yet to embrace the language of individualism, which is EL.

 

An interesting, not widely known, detail about the youthful Red Guards was, that they were used by Mao, to further his agenda of Cultural Revolution – meaning forcing all of China to become communist – until they were no longer useful. They were too fanatical, too dangerous, to remain, once they had served their purpose. In their heyday, around 1966, the Red Guard reigned with chaos and violence, but by 1967 the movement had been banned and removed in the name of ‘political stability.’ By 1968, they were forcibly suppressed and liquidated in mass executions. There is an eerie similarity with all the ‘useful idiots’ – students who want to be part of some cause – who are not only yelling the Communist’, but also Jihadist’ propaganda, to, support the liberation of Hamas-Palestine.

 

Mao – who easily killed 100 million people, as the Great Famine alone already killed an estimated 40 to 80 million (numbers from demographic experts) – like any other ruthless Chinese emperor, but also like all the democrats today, wanted power and control and used any means available, to succeed. These Red Guards are just like today's Antifa, who say they are anti-Fascist, but who are ironically identical to Hitler’s Brown-shirts. Intersectionality, this magical concept straight from the Diversity-Equity-Inclusion- Indoctrination-Playbook, presumably, is the intellectual, academic - don't worry about plagiarism - term, which beautifully explains this Nazi-Marxist-Jihadist movement and, yet we still refuse to talk with each other, in order to finally acknowledge the difference between DL and EL.

 

This is getting to be a long piece, but I want the reader to know, that I have spent many years of my life, studying psychology, I have worked for many years in mental health and I have taught psychology for many years, but in the context of what is happening today, I can better understand, why millions of dollars, went to creating many new courses – for LGBTQ, BLM, DEI, White Privilege, etc. – but nobody was interested in creating a course, to have ongoing EL. Psychologist, like RINOS, were never in favor of the individual, that is why practically all of their research is based on averages. However, whether we are willing to admit this or not, our problems are created by how we, each, individually, talk. Although this is a common problem, it remains an individual problem, because in DL, we are not true to our own experience. My ongoing EL is against everything that is happening in psychology, science or academia and in retrospect I realize, I never really was part of these coward, insincere, mediocre promotors of hateful DL.

 Community Organizing,

 

I heard on TV the term community organizing (CO) and was curious to find out, how it relates to the two different patterns, which occur in every language: Disembodied Language (DL) and Embodied Language (EL). According to Wikipedia, CO is a process where people, who live in proximity to each other or share some common problem, come together into an organization that acts in their shared self-interest. Unlike those who promote more consensual community building, CO organizers generally assume that social change necessarily involves conflict and social struggle in order to generate collective power for the powerless. CO has as a core goal the generation of durable power for an organization representing the community, allowing it to influence key decision makers on a range of issues over time. Ideally, CO groups get a place at the table before important decisions are made. CO organizers work with and develop new local leaders, facilitating coalitions and assisting in the development of campaigns. A central goal of CO is the development of a robust, organized, local democracy bringing community members together across differences to fight together for the interest of the community. This description clearly shows how DL is perpetuated by CO.

 

The insistence of CO organizers on conflict and struggle, as a way to, supposedly, achieve social change, is aimed at achieving durable power. This Marxist-communist approach, however, will never be able to properly address our DL. To the contrary, it will make our DL even more insidious, tenacious, manipulative and lethal, than it already is. Moreover, all of this will be done, because, presumably, it is good for the community. Make no mistake, with DL, only the illusion is created, that we are coming together.

 

CO is based on the artificial division between the so-called powerless and the powerful, and,   therefore, it preaches power for the powerless. EL isn’t based on any kind of fight and the basic premise of CO appears to be, that nothing can be achieved without DL. Whatever is achieved with DL, is never the wellbeing of the individual community members. The imaginary place, at the table of decision-making, is never obtained, because DL only deals with group-behavior, not with individuals. Like so many other political movements, CO throws out the child with the bathwater, by gas-lighting and virtue-signaling.

 

The aim of CO is social reform, that is, it claims to bring a social or political system closer to the community’s ideal. It should also be noted, that the need for reform of society, is grounded in what is known as liberalism or, more precisely, in socialistic-communistic-collectivistic ideology, which, in turn, previously arose from religious concepts. A famous example of this, was the fanatic, creepy, idiot, Mahatma Gandhi with his spinning wheel. Anything that is reactionary, religious, radical, left-wing or revolutionary, that is intent on transforming, replacing or radically overthrowing, the fundamental principles of society, is against EL and, clearly, in favor of DL.  

 

The end goal, the ideal, the future, which never comes – which, as is always the case, in brutal, lying, unnatural DL, justifies the means – of distributing power and resources, more equally, between the community members and external political and social figures of power (oddly, some people are seemingly more equal than others; see China or Russia), is always at the expense of the demise of millions of people. Freedom and wealth, was never created by any forcefully-distributing-the-wealth governments.

 

Another famous CO was Barack Obama, whose anti-American views, were shaped by the social justice warrior Saul Alinsky. Surely, the entire current Biden administration, is now executing Alinsky’s radical left agenda. They ram all kinds of absurd ideas down everyone’s throats and if you have any objections, you will be cancelled, by these powerful people, who will do anything to remain in power. Their DL has destroyed the Freedom of Speech, which provides room for EL. When it comes to acknowledging the difference between DL and EL, only the conservatives and republicans don’t force their ideas on others. I am not saying, the right has EL, but, surely, they are more open to it than the left. Essentially, DL is group-behavior, but EL is individual behavior, and, thus, the right is in favor of the individual, but the left – hiding behind their CO-shtick – is quite willing to sacrifice our individual rights on the altar of social justice. It is no coincidence Hillary Clinton wrote her senior thesis on Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals (1946). This is not Right-Wing paranoia, but a reflection, from a EL-perspective, on where America is today, based on where it has been. America and all free countries, need EL, the language of the individual.

 Sounding Horrible,

 

Although we don’t listen to it, and, although we remain unconscious about it, if we would take the time to listen to it, we would know, that we don’t really want to listen to our Disembodied Language (DL), because we just sound horrible.

 

Our usual way of talking – DL – which is going on everywhere, twenty-four-seven, just sounds terrible and, yet, we never acknowledge, that the reason, we don’t listen to each other and get along with each other, is because we don’t listen to ourselves while we speak. Surely, we also don’t get along with ourselves and this is why we imagine, we have troubling thoughts.

 

Nobody wants to talk about and come clean about the difference between Embodied Language (EL) and DL, the alienating, phony, superficial language they engage in every day, because it is embarrassing to admit, that we compulsively do something against our will, without realizing it. Once we own up to our DL, we can’t help, but recognize, that our common use of language is against our freedom.

 

People are screaming, forcing, arguing, fighting, bluffing, hiding, fleeing, freezing and distracting and all this goes on, as our, supposedly, normal way of talking. However, our ubiquitous DL is distorted, sickening, offensive and unintelligent, once we engage in EL. When we have ongoing EL, we know are better, than who we have been with our disastrous DL. Moreover, once we have had ongoing EL, there is no way back to DL, as there is no excuse for this repetitive stupidity.

 

DL is totally uninteresting. DL is boring, tedious, punishing and draining. To stop your own DL, is to do yourself the biggest favor, but to continue with it, is to torture yourself. In the name of our usual, expected, disconnecting way of talking millions of people, unknowingly, ruin their own lives and the lives of others. They justify the shit they pull of with their DL, with politics, religion, ethnicity or other herd-behavior. They condemn anyone who stands up as an individual, because they don’t know and fear the language of the individual.  

 

I have always felt and known, when it comes to an actual confrontation, people refuse to have the conversation, in which it becomes clear what is DL and what is EL. The numerous times I have tried to point this out, people always dismissed me, as they wanted to escape from admitting, that they are the ones who are dominating me. I’m unafraid to argue with anyone, but I refuse to be punished again because I am right, and I don’t buy into any crap they pull on me with their disgusting DL.

 

The reason I withdrew from my PhD psychology study at Palo Alto University – at the very end, while I was writing my dissertation and accruing my clinical hours – was because nobody there had the sincerity to admit, that they wanted to punish me for exposing and opposing their DL, which they justify with their arrogant authoritarian academic bullshit. I had wanted to write my dissertation about the DL/EL distinction, but I was forced by the director himself – who told me in forceful terms, after first inviting me and my wife at his house, overlooking the Pacific Ocean, for dinner – I had to follow the uninspiring research of my dull supervisor, although, upon enrolling in this expensive institution, I had been promised,  that I could determine my own research topic. They still owe it to me, to give my money back!  

 

I am talking about my lived experience and the sixty-five years I have been alive, I have yet to get any official credit for both the discovery as well as the formulation and conceptualization of what can become a new foundation for the field of psychology, which has not delivered. If psychologist were compared to engineers, who build bridges, they built flimsy bridges, which collapse, because they cannot hold the traffic of human interaction. The DL/EL distinction is at the very core what is mistakenly called mental or behavioral health. All behavior is regulated by our language, which means, either by our DL or by our EL. Our DL goes hand in hand with an involuntary behavioral repertoire, which is a sure recipe for the unhappy, conflicted, chaotic, meaningless lives we are living. Only ongoing EL can make us live a healthy, productive, truthful, satisfying, conscious, intelligent way of life.  

 

You just can’t believe what I say is true, but it is true, that when you finally speak out loud with yourself, tell yourself what is going on with you in your life and listen to the sound of your own voice, you will not like what you hear, because you engage in DL. You can only get to your EL, after you have fully admitted, to yourself, again and again, you don’t like the sound of your DL.                   

 

Getting used Embodied Language (EL),

Even though I discovered EL when I was about twenty, I'm still getting used to the fact that I can have it and that my ongoing EL is my Language Enlightenment (LE). You could also say, I am still not completely resolved. That last bit is apparently waiting until I die. Still, I feel very happy – even though I don't believe in having a soul – and to feel the rage of Disembodied Language (DL) every now and then is a grateful reminder of how I got to where I am today . The many positive changes keep on happening and in the wonderful life that I live, everything just keeps getting better.

 

Above all, I still have to get used to the fact, that I really am such a loving person who, despite all the lack of love, has managed to keep himself going for sixty-five years. Because of the love I experience with my wife, Bonnie, I have not become crazy, but enlightened. And there is someone, my dear Dutch friend AnnaMieke, who, like me, speaks to herself and with whom I talk weekly about EL and our LE. We both used to have a lot of drama, but now it has been resolved or it is still being resolved, in writing on our blog and in talking to ourselves, as I do here in this text or on my You Tube videos. I am truly as gilded as a priceless Rembrandt painting and I also feel something quintessentially Dutch in it, but I also appreciate Vincent van Gogh's lively play of colors. Because I have talked and listened to myself a lot, I can see and enjoy so much. There was a time when I discovered Russian classical music, through which my great sense of sadness could flow. I salute these heroes of sound, beauty and humanity.

 

I still can't get used to the horrible fact, that no one else is really interested in stopping their own DL and having EL. I probably just refuse to believe it. If someone like me - who has felt so sad, dissatisfied, rejected and misunderstood - could manage to stop dealing with all the misery caused by his DL, could continue with his own EL, and find, to his surprise, that the benefits of his EL continue to increase, then shouldn't that be possible for everyone? For myself I am right, thus, I know that everyone can do this.

 

The often-heard statement, we still have to get used to it, has, due to our DL, added that have-to-part to it. However, in EL there is no question of having to do or be anything. We can therefore get used to the fact, that the soup is apparently never eaten as hot as it is served. Patiently allowing our hot-tempered disgusting DL to cool down is extremely important. Swaddling, in Holland, included warming the infant by the fire. If, however, the swaddle was too tight or if one came too close to this fire, the child was believed to become hot-tempered, irritable or thoughtless by nature. Funnily enough, I still seem to be getting used to the fact that I was born. The swaddle and the fire, I am talking about, is DL, which surrounds us all.


I am suddenly reminded, just before my emigration to the United States, my mother suddenly took me aside, because she wanted to tell me something, she had never talked to me about before. I immediately felt alarmed. She let me know, that the cheerful, often-singing midwife - who was also her dear friend and who had previously helped her very well with the home birth of my two older sisters – died in a car accident only a couple of days before my birth. So, my mother was in mourning when I was born and cried incessantly. The new midwife was an impatient, cigarette-smoking, young, inexperienced woman. My mother felt that my fate in life had been determined by the sad circumstances in which I was born, and we both cried about it...

 

For a long period in my life, I was still trying to get used to the DL, I grew up with. I got upset, so many times, when I started to notice, that DL is going on everywhere. Although I shouted a lot, I always paid a huge price for my participation in DL. Since my punitive, controlling father, with his intimidating shouts, imposed his will on everyone, there was a lot of fighting and arguing in the family in which I grew up. As a child, I was always outside, to avoid this. There were also nice moments when everyone was good together, but that was always short-lived.

 

I know from behavioral theory, when one grows up in a situation, from which there is no escape, then a process of habituation or habit formation takes place, in which the individual survives by adapting. This is always inevitably accompanied by the development of neurotic behavior. Moreover, it has  the traumatic consequence, that the nervous system develops in such a way that an unsafe environment is experienced as normal and a safe environment as abnormal. For me, this meant that - even though I had already discovered the difference between DL and EL - I still could not believe, it was possible to continue with my own EL. I'm still getting used to that. I firmly believe, all of mankind is traumatized by our history with dreadful DL, we are just not conscious about it.

It may sound unbelievable, but, even though everyone, everywhere in the world, has been conditioned to have DL, they still can't and won't get used to it, because EL is not only possible, but desperately needed. EL is natural, effortless, self-evident, but DL is compulsive, unnatural and energy-consuming. I know that, unknowingly, we are all yearning to finally have some EL. Yet, we all tend to pretend that our DL is very normal, but if we had the choice to choose between DL or EL, we would invariably choose EL. My writing on this blog and my speaking on my You Tube channels 1) Maximus Peperkamp and 2) maximuspeperkamp-hw8sw, is to get the reader or listener used to the fact, that our usual, negative way of speaking – DL – is actually abnormal and profoundly problematic.
