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.
