Moon,

 

I just discovered – because I looked it up – today it is full moon. I feel an increase of energy around the completion of this monthly cycle. Although I may use the same words, I am not repeating myself. My Embodied Language (EL) shows, I am new, every moment. Of course, you are new, every moment, as well, but what you say or write doesn’t reflect that.

 

You continuously engage in what I call Disembodied Language (DL), because your language prevents you from being yourself. If you would, like I do, embody your own language, you would find out, it really works for you, because you will notice, you are new, every moment. In effect, you will then discover your own Language Enlightenment (LE), which could only be expressed by your EL, but never by your DL.

 

Of course, I would like you to share my writings with others. Of course, I would love to be invited by you to come and speak about EL. Of course, you are not where I am with my EL. You cannot be, as you haven’t had any ongoing EL with yourself. All you can do, is read this text out loud and listen to your own voice and feel how you sound, so that you can finally begin to hear yourself. Also, if you invite me and let me talk, you can experience the change, which occurs in your body, because of how I sound.

 

Surely, it would be best, if you started talking with yourself, hear your own sound and notice how your experience of your body changes because of your own EL. It is so different from having DL. However, you will only start speaking with and listening to yourself while you speak, if you have understood why that is important. Understanding EL is the key to having more of it, by stopping your own DL.

 

Initially, as you will have your first taste of EL, it is an emotional event, as you finally can feel what you have always felt, but were never able to accurately express. In DL, we cannot talk properly about our own experiences, let alone about our emotions. In DL, we are constantly distracted and disconnected from our experiences, by what we say about them.

 

In the beginning, your EL is about healing from all the trauma, associated with your involvement in DL. You cry and laugh a lot, as you recognize, you can overcome everything, you have been holding onto with your DL. After you have healed from your history with DL, your EL allows you to get clear about your language. This is what we usually refer to as thinking, but no such covert activity is taking place, as you overtly speak, write, listen or read.

 

Only after you have accepted and understood why you were always so emotionally upset, your EL will be able to express your non-emotional logic, your own reasoning. As you can tell from my writing, I am very logical about DL, EL and LE, because I can be, enjoy to be and am proud to be. This is such a contrast with how I used to be. I stopped being the impulsive, reactive person, I use to be. My EL makes me have well-grounded opinions about everything. I am not the least burdened or preoccupied with any of my deliberations, as they are the building blocks of the reality, I keep on creating and maintaining.  

 

I am proud to say, that I live in my own world and I have absolutely no problem at all with the fact that you too create and live in your world. Moreover, I don’t try to get you into my world nor do I try to get into your world, as I know, that we will always only be able to live in our own creation. This is the very essence of our individuality. To be able to reason like this is divine. To me, other than our way of dealing with language, there is nothing sacred.  

 

If you disagree with me, that is why you can’t feel the bliss of my LE. Naturally, your disagreement is not with me, but with yourself. Surely, you too could experience your own LE with your EL, but to do that, you would first have to stop your own DL. Like everyone else with DL, you unknowingly want others to stop your DL, but that is never going to happen. No matter how much you succeed in dominating, exploiting or manipulating others, you have never been able to stop your DL in that way. Also, your accusations about what others have done to you, have never resulted in EL and have always perpetuated your DL. Only you can stop your DL and you will only do that, if you understand this fact.                  

 

Now,

 

What would happen, if you would read these words out loud and listen to your own voice? I don’t want you to imagine it. I am not hypothesizing and I am also not telling you what to do or what to say, but I am asking: what do you experience, when you listen to what you are able to say to yourself, right now?

 

Paying attention to your voice, while you verbalize, whatever you want to say or can say, to yourself, is an irrefutable, direct experience. The sound of your voice is now embodied and felt by you, because you finally listen to it. Moreover, it reaches your ears and has a marvelous effect on your nervous system.

 

Instantly and effortlessly, your way of dealing with your language transforms, the moment, that you produce the sound of your Embodied Language (EL). You know, you can only produce, enjoy and be conscious of your own authentic, resonant speaking sound, you have right now, because you listen to it.

 

Obviously, you have remained seemingly unable to hear the sound of your own wellbeing, because you  yourself have never even taken the time, to express it, identify it and actually listen to it. Most probably, you have never done, what you are doing right now. You are stuck with Disembodied Language (DL), as long as you don’t listen to yourself while you speak.

 

Certainly, the sound you hear – and the energy you feel, which expresses your self-nature – when you, as you do right now, listen while you speak, is not the sound, you usually have. Almost continuously, the tone of your own voice disturbs your nervous system. Moreover, what makes things even more complicated, is that you are not the only one.

 

The reason human beings still haven’t figured out how to have continuous EL instead of DL, is because nobody listens to him or herself, while everyone is only trying to get others to listen to them. In other words, in DL, we are struggling to get each other’s attention, but we never pay attention to ourselves.

 

The new perception, which inevitably reveals itself, now that you listen to yourself – while you speak –, is the expression of your Language Enlightenment (LE), in which you say or write, in your own words, what you want to say or write. Stated differently, in  EL, you express your LE, as you are now the master of your own language. Furthermore, your so-called mind dissolves, because you have stopped your DL.

 

I can say all of this, because I have EL and speak and write about my LE. Although you can now hear and experience, in your voice, that you can have EL too, to continue with your own EL, you must move away from my words and say to yourself, what you want to say to yourself, to hear yourself and to act on what you have told yourself. Also, as you reap the positive consequences of your own EL, you write to yourself, anything you like to read about yourself.

 

Now you know, that you have believed in all sorts of nonsense, because of your constant involvement in DL. Indeed, now that your DL has, temporarily, been  stopped, you gain a new awareness, in which your own use of language plays a much bigger role than it has ever had. You have now discovered, that EL is the door through which you can also attain your LE.

 (This Dutch text is also available in Enligh below)

 

Opnieuw,

 

Alleen als alles helemaal misloopt, heeft men het er ineens over, om opnieuw te beginnen. Ook zeggen mensen, meestal met een gevoel van verslagenheid, dat ze helemaal terug naar af moeten, om zogezegd weer van voren af aan te kunnen beginnen. Het is raar maar waar, dat de zogenaamde vernieuwing voor verreweg de meeste mensen met mislukking te maken heeft. Wat iemand deed, liep op niets uit, het mocht allemaal niet baten. En, ook al maken we ons nog zo druk ergens over, het werkt gewoon niet en er zit eigenlijk niets anders op, om toe te geven, dat we geen stap verder zijn gekomen en dat we er zelfs nog slechter aan toe zijn dan voorheen. Het is weer het ouwe liedje en ook al nemen mensen zich voor om van hun fouten te leren, in werkelijkheid komt daar maar bitter weinig van terecht. Er was  een gevoel van te falen, want het was weer mislukt. Ook was er sprake van schaamte, dat een bepaald doel niet kon worden bereikt en dat er dus naar een ander of nieuw doel gestreefd diende te worden.

 

Het nieuwe, maar dan zonder drama, is iedereen vreemd. Toch is dat het enige echte nieuwe. Als we we dus voor de zoveelste keer de plank hebben misgeslagen en besluiten om – met het nieuwe jaar,  het nieuwe huwelijk, de nieuwe baan, de nieuwe aanplak-oogwimpers, de nieuwe I-Phone of met het nieuwe zogenaamde hogere doel – het de volgende keer anders of better te doen, dan doen we nooit of te nimmer dus iets nieuws. We houden onszelf en elkaar voor de gek. We praten over vernieuwing, maar we herhalen, op nog catastrophalere wijze, wat we al eerder deden. Het nieuwe, is niet iets wat ooit in onze gebruikelijk Ontlichaamde Taal (OT) tot z’n recht kan komen. Integendeel, elke keer, als we ons weer op sleeptouw hebben laten nemen en er heilig in geloven, dat het zogenaamde nieuwe vanaf nu zal gaan plaatsvinden, komen we bedrogen uit. 

 

Het komt niet in ons op, dat het nieuwe een andere wijze van praten vraagt, dan onze voorspelbare OT. Zonder Belichaamde Taal (BT) zeggen we nooit iets nieuws. Het toegeven, erkennen en accepteren, dat we altijd hetzelfde zeggen, is de enige wijze waarop wij daadwerkelijk ophouden met onze eigen OT en daardoor eindelijk eens iets nieuws kunnen zeggen. Als we iets nieuws zeggen, weten we altijd meteen dat het echt zo is. We lachen, omdat we zogezegd door de mand zijn gevallen, want er valt nooit iets te lachen met OT. We doen maar alsof we lachen, want ons zogenaamde lachen met OT is verkrampt en gemaakt. Echt lachen gebeurd alleen met BT en is altijd vernieuwend. Uiteraard, valt er niets nieuws te beleven, zolang we stompzinnig blijven lachen.

 

Zogenaamde humor pretendeert over iets nieuws te gaan, maar comedianten zijn suicidaal, verslaafd of depressief. Er wordt ook wel beweerd, dat we uit onze comfort-zone moeten komen, om het nieuwe te kunnen ervaren. Dit is volslagen flauwe kul. Het bevatten van het nieuwe, is een taal-gebeuren dat alleen tot stand kan komen, als we het ouwe op z’n plaats hebben gezet. Hoe doe we dat? Als we het gewoontegetrouw weer over het ouwe hebben, dan vergt onze stem heel veel aandacht. We worden allemaal doodmoe, indien we het ouwe beluisteren. Het nieuwe, daarentegen, geeft ons altijd energie. Belachelijk, eigenlijk, dat we dit nog steeds niet weten, want we doen allemaal alleen maar alsof we dit niet weten. Als we uiteindelijk BT gaan hebben, dan weten we wel degelijk, dat we altijd wisten wat het nieuwe was. We mochten echter in OT nooit zeggen, dat we het nieuwe kenden. Uitsluitend in BT, mogen we en kunnen we het uitvoerig hebben over het nieuwe, dat altijd de doortrapte, leugens van OT doorziet, aantoont en met klank beschrijft.

 

Als we BT hebben, dan beginnen we ieder moment opnieuw. Dat is onze Taal Verlichting (TV). Het nieuwe ontstaat voortdurend en we kunnen dus geen BT hebben, dat verder gaat dan een nieuw moment of een paar nieuwe momenten, als we het nieuwe niet verbalizeren en dus kenbaar maken. Andersgezegd, het nieuwe is ons vreemd, omdat wij het er nog nooit echt over hebben gehad. In plaast van het nieuwe te verworden, te bevatten en dus te belichamen, doen we alsof we opnieuw beginnen, terwijl onze taal niet is om aan te horen. Er is in BT nooit een opnieuw beginnen en daardoor is alles nieuw. Het lezen van deze tekst is natuurlijk iets nieuws. Als je het hardop aan anderen voor zou lezen, dan zouden de toehoorders kunnen beamen,  ook al werden deze woorden in je mond gelegd, het is nieuw, om precies te doen wat er wordt gezegd. 


Anew,

 

Only when everything goes completely wrong do people suddenly talk about starting over. People also say, usually with a sense of defeat, that they have to go all the way back to square one, so to speak, to start all over again. It is strange but true, that so-called innovation has to do with failure for the vast majority of people. What someone did came to naught, all to no avail. And, no matter how much we worry about something, it just doesn't work and there's really no other way, than to honestly admit that we haven't made any progress and that we're even worse off than before. It's old school again and even though people pretend to learn from their mistakes, in reality very little comes of it. There was a feeling of failure, because we did fail again. There was also shame, a certain goal could not be achieved and a different or new goal had to be strived for.

 

The new, but without the usual drama, is a strange phenomenon to everyone. Yet that is the only truly real new thing. If we have missed the mark for the umpteenth time and decide – with the new year, the new marriage, the new job, the new fake-eyelashes, the new I-Phone or the new higher purpose – this time we will do differently or better, then we will never ever do anything new. We fool ourselves and each other. We talk about innovation, but we repeat, even more catastrophically, what we did before. The new, is not something that can ever come into its own in our usual Disembodied Language (DL). Every time, when we have let ourselves be taken in tow again and firmly believe that the so-called new will take place from now on, we are disappointed.

 

It does not occur to us, the new requires a different way of talking than our predictable DL. Without Embodied Language (EL), we never say anything new. Admitting, acknowledging and accepting that we always say the same thing, is the only way we can actually stop with our own DL and finally say something new. When we say something new, we always know immediately that it is true. We're laughing, because we've fallen through the cracks, so to speak, because there's never anything to laugh about with DL. We just pretend to laugh, because our so-called laughter with DL is cramped and fabricated. Real laughter only happens with EL and is always innovative. There is nothing new to experience, as long as we keep laughing stupidly.

 

So-called humor pretends to be about something new, but all comedians are suicidal, addicted or depressed. It is also said, that we have to get out of our comfort zone to experience the new. This is complete bullshit. Embracing the new is a language event that can only come about when we have put the old in its place. And, how do we do that? When we go back to the old as usual, our voice demands a lot of attention. We all get tired, if we listen to the old. The new, on the other hand, always energizes us. Ridiculous, actually, that we still don't know this, because we're all just pretending we don't know. When we end up having EL, then we know that we always knew what was new. However, in DL we were never allowed to say that we knew the new. Exclusively in EL, may we and can we speak at length about the new, which always sees through, demonstrates, and describes with sound of our own voice the cunning, painful lies of DL. If we have ongoing EL, we'll start over every second. This is our Language Enlightenment (LE). The new is constantly emerging and so, we cannot have EL beyond a new moment or a only few new moments, if we do not verbalize and make known the new. In other words, the new is foreign to us, because we have never talked about it. Instead of becoming, comprehending and embodying the new, we pretend to start over, while our language is not to be heard. There is never any need for a new start in EL and everything is new. Reading this text is also something new. If you read it aloud to others, the audience would agree, even if these words were put in your mouth, it is new, to do exactly what is said.

Marbles,

 

Today, as nobody seemed to realize I was there, I felt so present. I remembered all those times, in the past, I didn’t feel seen or heard. I couldn’t stand it, back then, but now, it was a blissful opportunity, to be in a situation, that allowed me to disappear.

 

As a kid, I always made sure, I was nowhere to be found and to my recollection, nobody ever came looking for me. People quickly gave up on me, as I didn’t want to compete for anything, I didn’t want to have. However, I have always done my very best to get what I wanted, but only to discover, again and again, that I was wrong. Yet, I firmly believed, I wanted many different things. For the most part, I always managed to get what I wanted, but once I had achieved it, I felt disappointed, as it was not as enjoyable as I had hoped and I gave up on it again.

 

Often, I was told, I was ungrateful, to not continue with the chances I had been given, but, as far as I am concerned, I have always felt incredibly grateful  for what I got. Not surprisingly, I often felt guilty, for receiving so much, yet not being able to do anything with it. I felt undeserving, as it came to me so easy. However, the reality was, I always worked very hard for it, but somehow it never felt that way to me. 

 

I guess, I am used to working hard. I always felt that anything I wanted was within my reach, by putting my energy in it. Nevertheless, as I became older, it became more and more dissatisfying to attain what I, presumably, wanted, because each time, it turned out to be something I didn’t want, once I got it. I was afflicted with eternal dissatisfaction and came to a point, where I ran out of things that I wanted.

 

Why could I not have one profession, one goal, one path? I had been satisfied so often, but each time, I was having what I had worked for, I wanted it no more. I am reminded of playing marbles as a child. It was the biggest competition I have ever engaged in. All the kids of my neighborhood played marbles, everywhere. A gap in between the pavers on the sidewalk or a crack close to the wall, was the spot where our marbles would land. Kids were proudly and possessively carrying their bags full of marbles around. It was a fierce contest, which involved a lot of arguments and yelling about the rules.

 

We all knew the rules, but nobody knew where they had come from. The rules were often even adjusted to the particular spot, where we were playing, just before the game started or during the game, as certain disagreements had to first be settled. I liked it so much, I had become one of the best marble players. Our battles continued until the street lamps came on and we had to return our home for dinner.

 

One day, I beat all of the best players and I carried two big buckets full of marbles. Some marbles were ordinary and damaged, because they had been used so often, but others were brand new, colorful and special, they were worth ten times as much as the others. I won them all. As I came home, I looked at the buckets and immediately knew what I was going to do. The next day, I announced, that, after school, I would throw all my marbles on the street, in front of my house, as I didn’t want them anymore.

 

After school, I walked home together with a whole bunch of kids from our street. I went inside, to get the two buckets of marbles and when I came back out, it seemed as if many more kids had gathered for this unusual ceremony. However, none of my  former competitors, who had lost, were there, only those, who were not so good at playing marbles,  who had watched us play and see me win and win.

 

It was like some sort of scene from a Robin Hood movie. It felt, as if I had stolen all the marbles from the best players and I was now going to give them back to everyone, who had lost their marbles to them. Many of these players were sour losers and had cheated, as they intimidated the other kids, but I didn’t let that happen to me. I had won from all of them. I felt like some sort of hero, but my brother, tried to stop me and said that I was crazy. I emptied each bucket and hundreds of marbles bounced and rolled over the sidewalk, while fifteen kids were on hands and knees, picking up as many as they could.

 

Within minutes, the street was empty and everyone was gone, as if nothing had ever happened. I never played marbles after that, but I am sure, anyone who was there, remembers what a great happening it was. It felt so good to give them away. After I had discovered my Embodied Language (EL), I still, so to speak, wanted to give away all my marbles, but almost nobody seemed to want them. Those who come to me, they get a lot, as I have no one else to give to. Losers, who continue with Disembodied Language (DL), are unwilling to admit, that it is true: they have really lost all their marbles. I had such fun playing this game. Winning these beautiful marbles equals the accumulative effects of my ongoing EL, which resulted my recognition of my Language Enlightenment (LE), the game I like to play today.

(This Dutch writing is available in English below)

 

Taal,

 

Wat gebeurt er, als ik in mijn eigen taal ga schrijven, over dat waar ik altijd bij kan blijven?

 

Het is alsof ik mijzelf een opdracht geef, die ik maar al te graag  uitvoer en beleef, omdat het meteen tot de gewenste resultaten leidt: het verdwijnen van ieder besef van tijd.

 

Het merkwaardige van mijn vreugdevol ontwijken, is dat er zoveel is bereikt, maar niets is te bereiken.

 

Er komen vanzelf wat woorden naar voren, die mij bekoren, die ik wil horen.

 

Het is zo fijn, om in mijn eigen taal te zijn.

 

Er is zo’n rust en ruimte, om toe te laten en om te vergeten, wat ik niet meer hoef te weten.

 

Mijn taal is licht, als mijn ware gezicht, dat lacht om dit eenvoudige gedicht.  

 

Het wonderlijke ontwaken gebeurde, en nu is de waarheid de realiteit.

 

Ik zit in mijn gemakkelijke stoel en geniet van alles wat ik voel.

 

Ik ben eigenlijk heel normaal, nu dat de hele wereld is verdwenen in mijn rustige taal.

 

Ik hou van de voortgang zonder drang en blijf trouw aan de aap uit mijn mouw.

 

Wat een enorm geluk heb ik gecreerd, omdat ik, wat ik deed, heb afgeleerd.

 

Altijd ben ik bereid.

 

Alles is vervat in mijn goedmoedige woorden schat.

 

Ik doe waar ik om geef en ontvang elke dag als een geschenk, dat ik beleef.

 

Ik ben zo blij met wat ik kreeg: een Zen-schilderij met slechts een veeg.

 

Nadat ik was gestopt, om het uit te leggen, had ik ineens zoveel meer te zeggen.

 

Het is beter zo, nu ik begrijp, dat ik hiermee niets bereik en dat dat het is waar het om gaat, mijn hart verstaat het doen van deze daad.

Omdat ik handel naar wat ik hoor, kan ik verder en ga ik door.

 

Elk moment kom ik tot mijn recht, omdat ik het heb geschreven en heb gezegd.

 

Echt waar, beste lezer, mijn spreken is dit gedicht want mijn schrijven heeft mij verlicht.

 

Ik zal blijven vertellen, wat het is om alle lagen af te pellen, om te zingen en dansend te springen, om te lachen om een fout van toen vanwege mijn voormalige manier van doen.

 

De verandering heeft bezit van mij genomen in mijn waken en in mijn dromen.

 

Ik ben mijn eigen stem.  

 

Language,

 

What happens when I start writing in my own language about what I can always remember?

 

It is as if I give myself an assignment, which I am only too happy to carry out and experience, because it immediately leads to the desired result: the disappearance of all sense of time.

 

The curious thing about my joyful dodging is that so much has been achieved, but nothing can be achieved.

 

Some words come out of their own accord, which charm me, which I want to hear.

 

It's so nice to be in my own language.

 

There is such a peace and space, to allow and to forget, which I no longer need to know.

 

My language is light, like my true face, laughing at this simple poem.

 

The miraculous awakening happened, and now the truth is reality.

 

I sit in my easy chair and enjoy everything I feel.

 

I'm actually quite normal, now that the whole world has disappeared in my quiet language.

 

I like the progress without pressure and stay true to the monkey up my sleeve.

 

What immense happiness I have created, because I have unlearned what I did.

 

I am always ready.

 

Everything is contained in my good-natured words, my dear reader.  

 

I do what I care about and receive every day as a gift, which I live.

 

I am so happy with what I got: a Zen painting with just one swipe.

 

After I stopped, to explain, I suddenly had so much more to say.

 

It's better now that I understand that I'm getting nowhere with this and that's what matters, my heart understands doing this act.

 

Because I act on what I hear, I can move on and keep going.

 

Every moment I come into my own, because I wrote it and said it.

 

Truly, my speaking is this poem, for my writing has enlightened me.

 

I'll keep sharing what it's like to peel back all the layers, to sing, dance and jump, to laugh at a mistake I made back then because of my former ways.

 

The change has taken possession of me in my waking and in my dreams.

 

I am my own voice.

See,

 

Since you only know how to engage in Disembodied Language (DL) and, therefore, are unable to engage in Embodied Language (EL) – because the two are mutually exclusive – you find written words, such as these, more important than spoken words. Actually, if you would look into it (pun intended), you would discover, that you find your spoken words, which you can hear, are more important than the words you write or read. However, to your own detriment, you have been culturally conditioned, to prefer the latter. Yes,  your conditioning history is against what you naturally prefer as an individual and you remain  unconsciously tormented by this fact of life, unless you figure out, how you want to use your language.

 

Clearly, due to education, science, and technology, we go against our human nature, by making it seem as if visual stimuli are biologically more important  than auditory stimuli. Consequently, what you say, is more important than how you say it – not the other way around. Although we hear, time and again, the phrase “it’s not what you say but how you say it”, it has become a total cliché, as we only pay lip-service to how we sound, that is, to how we say things, while we speak. Nonetheless, the saying matters more than ever, because it is so true, as it  pinpoints exactly the difference between DL and EL.

 

Our common so-called understanding very clearly derives from our almost permanent involvement in DL. The saying basically says: we want to hear and have EL instead of DL. Supposedly, communication is about content and delivery, fifty-fifty, but, when it comes to the handful of presumably specialized talkers – our leaders, who may do all the talking, by demanding everyone’s attention – we have been forever bamboozled into the childish belief that our so-called great leaders relate to us, ordinary people.

 

I would say that great leaders engage in EL instead of DL, but I know for a fact, this is absolutely not the case. Leaders, like everyone else, merely pretend to have EL, while, in fact, they always engage only in DL. If there would be a leader with EL, people would begin to have EL, but such a leader is nowhere to be found. People searched for truth all over the place, but have only imagined that they have found it, as they were driven by visual stimuli and, therefore, they have never listened to themselves. If they would pay closer attention to what they hear, they would recognize and know, that their leaders fake it until they make it. Leadership with DL is a big joke.

 

Everyone with DL likes to believe, that they already know, that any so-called innovative ideas, will have to be delivered, in a way that connects with other people and relates to them in a meaningful way, but this predetermined tendency, to convince others, has never worked. That is why the worn-out saying “it is not what you say but how you say it” is totally meaningless. In other words, we never shifted our attention from visual to auditory stimuli, so that we could stop our DL and finally engage in EL. Stated differently, elevated leaders, have, inadvertently, always spoken in the same way everyone else speaks, which means, as speakers, they try, in every way possible, to dominate the listener, preferably,  by making it seem as if they really connect or care.

 

We mainly have DL, but seldom EL, and even when we do, it is only a short-lived, awkward, special, but illusive moment of genuine empathy or caring and then we go on again with business as usual. These brief, shocking, unexpected occurrences of EL, are confusing, as we never achieved or experienced any  ongoing EL. In short, our need to, supposedly, make it, constantly overtakes and pushes out our ability to be open and sincere in a consequential manner.

 

Courses, in which we, supposedly, learn how to  communicate effectively, don’t teach us to have EL instead of DL. Everything that is taught, is taught with DL. Learning would be a real conversation, if we were taught with EL. I looked it up – hahaha – guess what? People are even taught to look others straight in the eye, to, supposedly, really see them. They are literally told, nothing is more dismissive,  demeaning or disrespectful, than not recognizing people, by not making eye contact, while you speak. This is an example of how speakers manipulate the listeners, by making them look at them and, thus, making them pay attention to what they say.  

 

Hilariously, people are also taught to be direct and genuine. Anyone who has EL, will be able to tell you that directness and genuineness is innate, but if one tries to be direct or genuine, this always means one engages in phony, scripted, superficial DL. Also, students of communication, are made to believe, that leadership is not about controlling people, but about breaking down barriers and creating a sense of trust. In EL, there are no barriers to be broken down, as we reciprocate our experiences of trust.

 

Anyone who studies communication, is going to  hear about the presumed importance of telling stories. From an EL perspective, however, this emphasis on telling stories, is about monologues being more important than dialogue and pushing a particular narrative. In EL, we stop rehashing the same old story, which perpetuates our conditioning. How we say things, deals with how we feel while  we speak, but we can’t feel anything, if there is no opportunity to address how we feel, that is, as long as what we, presumably, think is more important. It is only during DL, we keep unsuccessfully trying to increase our self-awareness, as in EL, we are already aware, so we don’t need to work on ourselves, as we receive, continuously, auditory feedback from the pleasant sound of our voice, while we speak.

 

You have not yet had EL, so come and talk with me and find out what it is like. Aren’t you so bored, fed up and disappointed with DL, that you feel like you live a meaningless life? It is the first day of the new year, so why not do something boldly new and talk with me? You can make a skype appointment with me, my skype name is limbicease and clarify EL is not a mystical theory, but a reality, you can create.

 

My language goes where it wants to go. I let it go to you, if that is what this moment tells me to do. I let it happen and I write or speak about what I want to write or speak about, as often as I can. This is such a delight, as I do not know, when I open my mouth or put my pen on the paper, where my EL will go. Of course, I take my own safety precautions, not to get in trouble, that is why I stay away from your DL as much as I can. I would be stupid to expect, that I could say what I write here, to just anyone and if you read this, I want you to know, that you are one of the few, who actually consider what I am saying and writing. Most people find my writing too long or too repetitive, that is fine with me, as I don’t do anything to write or speak in any particular way to please others, because I only write or speak in this way to please myself. Yes, it feels so good to be able to do this and those, who pay attention to what I am doing, know, I am not hurting anyone, although, occasionally, I feel like lashing out at the tragedy of DL, which is our unaddressed usual way of talking.

 

Look, you may be used to DL, but that doesn’t mean  you have to go on with it. Of course, you can stop it and you can have EL instead and engage in EL with me. I write this blog to hopefully make that happen. Even if is doesn’t happen, I continue to write about EL, as I have changed so much by speaking it, that I am even having great fun, just bashing your dumb,  aggressive, disgusting, superficial, twisted DL. What else can I do? I like to poke fun at your DL. I know I am not particularly funny, but rather annoying for others, but I am very funny, according to myself. This is because I am not trying to be funny, while I am exploring my EL. It is sidesplitting, you don’t get it. Although I have been sad, frustrated, confused and worried about it, I no longer feel that way, as I know that your inability to laugh with me, has made me laugh even more. It seems true, for me, that the more I laugh with myself, the less I laugh with you.

 

I am not trying to be funny for you, but I find, the more serious I am with you, the more fun I have. To me EL is serious, since I know perfectly well why you can’t have it. In the same way, a boy grows up to pray in church or sing in a choir, because he is, like I was, raised in a Catholic family, he will never, all of a sudden, out of the blue, begin to recite Buddhist’ mantras or perform Hindu Puja rituals, as that was never a part of his upbringing or his behavioral conditioning history. How are you going to have EL, if there wouldn’t be someone like me – who is not teaching it to you and you are not learning it from him –  with whom you can talk? There is no other way to acquire it. Forget about learning EL, as you will never get what it is, as long as you believe, due to your previous conditioning, that you can learn it.

 

I find that funny that EL cannot be learned, because I myself have tried, in vain, for many years, to teach it. The joke is on me and your stubborn, cowardly, ignorant refusal to talk with me, validates each point I am making in this writing. Are you daring enough, are you having enough sense of humor, to have EL and laugh about yourself? I would like, you would say yes, but I know, you are probably not going to do that. Perhaps, you still continue reading. In that case, these words may still get under your skin. They may strike a chord with you, that there is no point to my formulation of EL, if it there wasn’t, just now the realization, that you are reading and understanding, how this text is really changing you.

 

You cannot read this, while hanging on to your old belief, that these words – like the muddy words you are used to reading or hearing elsewhere – are derived from DL, because you already know, they are not. What you read is the written version of EL. Moreover, I am reading these words together with you, although I am writing these words, with my mouth closed. I and you can speak like this and I can make you imagine, what it is like to hear this. I use these words, which are, of course, visual stimuli, to bring your attention, to how you would sound, that is, to auditory stimuli. I can tell, if you are getting it and so can you. Since you aren’t speaking yet, there’s only this writing, I want you to get. If you have read it, you’ll get it. You cannot miss it, as you have seen these words, which cannot be unseen.

Ability,

 

I really appreciate having developed my own ability, to always say, to myself, exactly what I want to say and can say. I do this because, for the most part, I am not in the position, to be able to say it to you. I would like to say to you, what I can say to myself, but you don’t want me to do that, as you only know how to engage in Disembodied Language (DL).

 

Even when you let me talk and, presumably, agree with me, you ask me questions, which indicate, that you are not ready to have Embodied Language (EL) with me. For instance, you would ask: how do we teach this to others? The entire notion of others doesn’t arise in EL, as the other, is always perceived, as our own experience, our own memory, our own belief, our own description, our own explanation, our own opinion and our own fear or our own happiness. In other words, when you have EL with me or with yourself, you will certainly notice, that  there really is no difference between me and you.

 

Shockingly, in EL, our identity – our belief in who we are, in who we have been and in who we are going to be in the future – dissolves. This will predictably happen, as EL is the inescapable expression of our Language Enlightenment (LE). Our EL announces the unavoidable transcendence or death of everything we have falsely assumed about our reality. You are already enlightened, although you haven’t acquired the necessary way of talking, to properly express it.

 

Another indication, you still only want to have DL, is that you believe and talk to defend and impose that belief, that you think there is an inner voice, which is your consciousness. However, there is no private speech, as this is merely the way in which we speak about the irrefutable fact, that we are seldom, if ever, in the preferable circumstance, in which we can fully verbally express ourselves. Certainly, we would be in that situation much more often, if we would repeatedly talk out loud with ourselves and listen to ourselves, as doing that, would allow us to say and consider everything we had wanted to say and were able to say. It would be very clear and self-evident to us, that we don’t think before we speak or even hear what we say, as we would listen to ourselves while we speak, that is, we would speak and listen simultaneously, at the same rate.

 

What we call our mind, our thoughts, our feelings, our experiences, our memory or our perception, is our language, which we now fully express and hear or, as with this writing, read. The issue of having a consciousness, therefore, is an indication, that we haven’t talked with ourselves and so, we believe in many things, which aren’t true. Simply stated, there never was a me, who was having an experience, as there is only our way of speaking or writing, which  happens in such a way, this appears to be the case.

 

The whole separation between the experiencer and the experience, is merely a fictitious verbal concept, which causes us many complicated problems. Thus, DL, is simply an incorrect way of talking about our reality, while EL is the only correct way to speak or write about our reality. DL is incorrect, in that, we believe in the division between an inner, subjective world and, an outer, objective world. Again, these are just illusions, which are created and maintained by the way in which we speak and, inevitably, write.

 

Since all of mankind is still trapped, by the old way of talking – DL –  in which we continue to imagine things to be true, which are patently false, we also produce writings, which reflect this fallacy. In effect, all the writing that has been done, derives from DL and this writing, is one of the very first versions of what has derived from EL. In DL, our emphasis on morality itself, is the inevitable mistake we make in our ability to distinguish between right and wrong. There is no right or wrong other than our EL and our DL and, indeed, EL is right and DL is wrong.  It is that way, even though we were not yet aware about it.

 

The possibility of EL has always been with us, and has always, albeit in minimal ways, had its positive effects. Each time we were peaceful with one another, each time we were friendly, sensitive and open to having real conversation, we were already, unknowingly, engaging in EL. However, it was never really clear to us, what EL was, therefore, our most important behavior - which is our verbal behavior (speaking, listening, writing and reading) - still causes us tremendous problems. EL is the expression of who we naturally are, when we say what want and are able to say and, thus, our EL is essentially the only way for us to come to know our own LE.
