Good,
Anyone who has understood something about
Embodied Language (EL) will feel good, blessed and reassured to know that,
because of our new language, everything can still work out. It's not about
using certain words that I or others use, but about the words that suit you
exactly and to speak in the way you would like.
Of course, everyone who has gone through
the transformation from Disembodied Language (DL) to EL has a responsibility to
create more EL for themselves in the first place, but also to let others know,
that it is high time to stop DL, so we can finally start having some EL. This
is an important moral issue we have not yet faced or able to read, because we
have not yet written about what it is like to hear ourselves when we really speak to
ourselves and are therefore able, to listen to ourselves.
There is nothing else we can do, but try to
talk to ourselves and thus hear, experience and admit, that we ourselves - and
therefore everyone - can indeed recognize the great difference between DL and EL,
but that we didn't have this distinction before, to be able to talk about our
everyday way of speaking. There is no question about it, we usually have DL
again and we rarely, if ever, get to have EL. There's something absolute about EL
that can't be avoided.
You can only have EL after you have stopped your DL. To succeed in that, you will have to take yourself out of your own
conditioning. You either do it or you don't. It is a matter of observing
yourself, listening to yourself and hearing, whether you are doing one or the other.
You could also say, that you misbehave in DL and you are well behaved in EL. It
is very important to acknowledge both your DL and your EL. Only if you do that
will your EL continue.
If you only want EL and don't want to admit
you have DL, your conditioning to have DL continues. In other words, you suffer
and you stay in trouble. You can easily give up trying to stop your own DL. You
probably will, because your conditioning history is so powerful, yet there's
nothing stopping you from experimenting again and experiencing the fruits of
the work you've done. Everything you do to stop your DL will always, in some
way, work out positively, even if those results only become visible or audible
over time.
Of course, once you learn the difference
between DL and EL, you only want to have EL, but wanting EL will frustrate you,
as it implies that you are still denying your DL. When you have EL, you don't
want EL at all, but you can have it, because you've done what you needed to do
to have it: you’ve stopped your DL. Even if it seems very simple, there is an
enormous amount of work and listening involved in stopping your DL, for your
habitual way of speaking not only causes how you generally interact with your
own language, but it also regulates all your other behaviors.
A certain behavioral pattern is associated
with DL and a completely different behavioral pattern is associated with EL.
Although it is revealing and interesting to have EL, we often lose ourselves in
the conditioning-derived desire to want something special. Having had little or
no EL, we're making EL into something, which it isn't at all. Our longing for
something spiritual, for something mystical, for something new, for something
we so to speak want with all our heart and soul, of which we can never seem to
get enough, makes our DL repeat itself.
When we have EL, all kinds of unnecessary
behavior disappear by itself. There is no longer any urge for anything else.
The remarkable thing is that we feel reborn, because our language allows us to
stay in the here and now. Even though many times we fail to stop our DL, every
time we do what needs to be done, we manage to get it done, when we listen to
ourselves. We can only hear ourselves if we talk to ourselves out loud. Nothing
can be heard if we do not produce sound. Furthermore, there is nothing but
noise and disaster to be heard as long as we continue to talk to ourselves with
DL. We don't want to hear this, yet we unconsciously continue to make that
nasty sound of our stress, dissatisfaction, fear, confusion, defensiveness and
arrogance. We can tell ourselves, so to speak, we don't want DL, but it's not
true, since we keep producing it anyway.
When we finally admit to ourselves, with
great dismay, that we apparently prefer DL over EL, then a shift begins to take
place, as we start to talk to ourselves about why this is so. Simply put, we
keep having DL over and over because we obviously think of ourselves as bad,
wrong, stupid, unworthy, unintelligent, or unimportant. In DL, what we say,
what we can formulate, what we think – our language – is supposedly not important
enough.
In DL, we can never really be ourselves and
even though we write about it, our writing is a form of DL. Our writing is
usually even less important than what we say, which is why we talk more often
than we write. There are, of course, many writers, who believe they are writing
from EL, but the fact remains that they always wrote from DL, because they have
never engaged in speaking aloud to themselves and listening to the sound of
their voice.
Once our EL increases, because we've stopped our DL - not just once or twice, but as many times as we need to, perhaps even hundred thousand times - then the importance of our writing about our EL increases, because it's the way is in which our EL stabilizes. While there is social reinforcement of our EL when we share it with others, it is not enough to allow our EL to continue. Therefore, it is necessary to enjoy EL, by writing about it, as that determines the self-reinforcing effects. Moreover, writings are objective, in that they can be read and experienced by others. Those who have never heard of EL can read about it and start their verification experiment. This writing is one of the very first writings about our new way of communicating. Once there are multiple descriptions about the huge difference between DL and EL, more and more people will read about it and start to engage in EL, because we are all enlightened and we unknowingly want to continue with our EL because of our original state, which is our Language Enlightenment (LE).
