Rest,

 

After you have read these few simple words, you are either going to waste the rest of your life with more of the same of your old, stupid, phony, stressful, troublesome Disembodied Language (DL) or you are going to enjoy, who you really are – your Language Enlightenment (LE) – because you have become capable of having ongoing, always new Embodied Language (EL).

 

Once if had figured out, I could have EL instead of DL, I was, again and again, wondering, why the rest of the world didn’t want to have EL? I never found any answer to that bothersome question, which disappeared from my life. Once you have EL, you are at your best and you no longer worry about the rest. You are no longer interested or involved in the rest of all these awful, boring, dreadful stories, which people tell themselves and each other. You will not be telling your own story either, because you have better, more important things to do with your EL. Sure enough, you leave the rest of all your own old, conflicted, unfinished, chaotic, meaningless stories alone. You take no ordinary break, once you have EL instead of DL, because you can now truly rest in your own language.

 

With your ongoing EL, you have no problem recognizing the seduction and manipulation of DL, which leaves you hanging. Supposedly, it takes more than outrageous cliff-hangers to win the ratings wars. There is always a struggle for attention going on in DL and the audience isn’t given any rest. We all know cliffhangers usually turn out to be disappointments, but we fell again for it. Moreover, you want to know the rest of the story, because you were conditioned to be a consumer of amusement. The so-called ending of an episode of a drama leaves the audience in suspense. The story or the situation is uncertain, and the outcome is in doubt. All of this is typical DL stuff, but you’ll be fine if you rest a little bit.

 

Although, initially, you can only have some EL for a little while, it will be clear, you need that rest from your usual way of talking, which is DL. Once you are able to have more EL, you will be shocked, to find out, how worn out you are from DL. You really need that rest. The institutionalization of those, who were said to have mental disorders, was a haphazard attempt, to provide this much needed rest and the deinstitutionalization made us forget about our need for rest, to calm down and have EL instead of DL.

 

In my opinion, we need asylums more then ever in the twenty-first century. However, with our EL, we cannot avoid the realistic notion that our so-called humanitarianism, understanding and therapeutics were always still based on DL, as the difference between DL and EL was never fully acknowledged. We definitely need a refuge from an unforgiving world – in which DL rules – a place where those, who are worn down and disturbed by life’s tribulations, can escape, rest, reassess and start afresh again with EL.

 

When someone has died, we say: may he or she rest in peace. This says it all, how we deal with our need for rest. With DL, we postpone it until we die, because with DL, we can’t rest, as we are literally restless. The only rest we will ever have, is the rest we can experience during our lives. There is no rest in death. Due to DL, we believe that numbing ourselves, in one way or another, equals rest. Of course, it doesn’t, but since we don’t know how to truly rest with EL, we can’t help but fall victim for the promise of rest in religion, drugs, alcohol, art, music, amusement, knowledge, meditation, wealth, power, politics and medicine. Nothing comes close, to the rest we can only achieve with our EL, as it is the rest of who we are, when we experience our LE.               

 Overview,

 

 

With our usual, unconscious, unnatural way of talking, in which we don’t listen to ourselves while we speak, we never have an overview of what is actually happening in our own lives and in the lives of others. In Disembodied Language (DL) we are only guessing, pretending, believing and imitating. To be conscious, to know what is going on, to understand the reason, why things are the way they are, we must have Embodied Language (EL), which will only become possible, if we spend time, alone, by talking out loud with ourselves, about our own experiences and by listening to the sound of our voice while we speak. Thus, by becoming our own listener, we stop our DL and begin to tell ourselves, why we have behaved as we did and why we in EL, behave as we do. The irrefutable fact, that we didn’t listen to ourselves in DL, shows, once we begin to talk with ourselves and listen to ourselves, everything starts becoming clear.

 

Each of us is faced with many questions, about decisions we make, to do this or to do that. Our choices always have consequences. Both, what we do, but also what we don’t do, determines how we live our lives. If we manage, to behave in such a way, that the outcomes of our actions make us successful, happy and satisfied, we have behaved responsibly, but if what we did or didn’t do, resulted into failure, chaos, conflict and despair, we behaved irresponsibly. Our responsibility is a matter of using language as a feed-back mechanism, to let ourselves know how we are doing. Surely, in  DL, our habitual way of dealing with language, in which we don’t listen to ourselves while we speak, we are irresponsible and we only grow up, so to speak, we only mature, we are only capable of acknowledging, the extent to which what we experience, is the result of our own doing, if we take time to speak with ourselves, in order to be able to listen to our own voice, so that we can instruct ourselves with our ongoing EL.

 

Once we have deciphered, the great difference between our DL and EL, we realize, we have been busy – in DL – with many questions and answers, which weren’t ours, which we have acquired, due to our history of conditioning. We were all taught, to listen to others, to authority outside of ourselves. In DL, listening means, we are listening to others, or we try to get them to listen to us, but we never listen to ourselves. Although in DL, everyone claims to be in charge of their own lives, we cannot be in charge, as long as our language works against us, because we never speak with ourselves, in order to be able to hear what we’ve got to say to ourselves. Only when our DL has been stopped, because we have begun to talk with ourselves and listen to ourselves and engage in EL, can and will we be able to formulate our own questions and our own answers, about who we are, as individuals, and how we want to live our lives.

 

It is astonishing, that this essential analysis of our language, is only presented by me, but not by any psychologists, psychiatrists, linguists, lawyers, scientists, teachers, physicians, news anchors, pundits, politicians and religious leaders. This clearly shows, that everyone in authority is, unknowingly, engaging in DL and that our notion of so-called self-knowledge is completely flawed. Naturally, we will only know who we really are, when we stop fantasizing and making things up, as we have done for ages with our DL. Moreover, our motivation, to stop our own DL and to engage in ongoing EL, can only come from reading a text like this or from listening to my You Tube channels 1) Maximus Peperkamp or 2) maximuspeperkamp-hw8sw. If one verifies what I have written and have been saying on my videos, only one conclusion possible: if one can have EL by one-self, alone, with one-self, it is possible and necessary, to have EL with others, who, like us, also stopped their DL and discovered their EL. We are faced with the challenge, to engage in EL, a new form of communication, in which each speaker listens to him or herself while he or she speaks. EL is effortless and energizing and restores our sanity, which was lost, due to our tragic involvement in DL.

 Sensation,

 

Of course, as long as there is our usual Disembodied Language (DL), there is always a sense of fear and threat. However, when we finally have Embodied Language (EL), it is almost inconceivable, we have, apparently, always had such an unintelligent use of language, that had only catastrophic consequences. Our  inability or unwillingness to admit, our DL is terrible, remains one of the most important reasons we continue with it, as it still seems to us - because we act like a victim – that we have nothing to do with it. Surely, this isn’t true. We could have done something about it, a long time ago, but we never considered our DL, because fully recognizing our  lack of responsibility means, we are not – as we like to claim to be – free and we are, therefore, slaves to our habit, created by our conditioning. We prefer to pretend this is not the case and we fool ourselves.

 

Although it is undeniably apparent, that we act over and over again from an ineffective pattern, to which we seem to be hopelessly stuck - it is just a dumb excuse, our behavior inexplicably keeps repeating itself - we stubbornly continue to do what we have always done, even though we know perfectly well, it cannot and will not have a good result and we are not doing what should be done, to bring about real behavioral change. Moreover, not being capable or  honest enough, to admit, that we don't know what we could do, to achieve something better is not even the point. What truly matters is, we don't realize, we should stop doing something, to prevent our stupid, predictable, repetitive, senseless tragedies.  

 

We do something significant for 

ourselves, when we describe 

all behavior that was caused,

maintained and conceptually

inseparable from our DL. We

will have to stop all this 

behavior, in order to be 

able to have EL. In other 

words, we are unable to 

actually stop our DL, until 

we have consciously 

engaged in recognizing 

and ceasing the behavior 

associated with our DL. 

Only then will we be able, 

to stop being who we 

believed and pretended to 

be, when we recognize, 

everything we did with 

premeditation – as planned 

with our DL – was completely 

pointless and problematic. 

No behavior should escape 

our attention. Due to our DL, 

we are used to constantly 

paying attention to all kinds 

of matters that yield no good 

results at all. While we assume 

we fulfill our needs, we remain 

busy with supposedly necessary 

things in DL, we are unable 

to distinguish between real 

needs and phony needs. 

Our real need is to be able 

to use our language to 

speak correctly about our  

experiences, but this is never 

discussed with our EL.  

 

Becoming conscious about our urgent need for realistic, effective and enjoyable language, is also not about, as is so often said, that one, presumably, has deeper or higher needs or that one would be wasting time by remaining occupied with vulgar superficialities, as it simply comes down to the fact that we, in DL, do not listen to ourselves. In other words, there can only be clarity, certainty and continuity in our language if we, again and again, stop our DL and turn it into EL, recognizing first, that we didn't listen to ourselves and then, that we began to listen to ourselves again. Naming our own DL as DL and describing the indisputable fact that we again did not listen to ourselves, is as important as saying that two and two is four and not five.

 

Any refusal, to wholeheartedly admit, we were not listening to ourselves in our insensitive, automatic, coercive DL derives from DL, which makes us claim that, supposedly, it doesn't matter what happens to us during our lives, because we believe in a power that is bigger and higher than ourselves, which will miraculously ensure, everything will turn out fine. . This grandiose, spiritual, desperate, but ubiquitous madness shows, that we, as individuals, have never gotten around to ourselves and have never taken our necessary individual language serious. Because of our DL, we willingly sacrifice ourselves on the altar of culturally-sanctioned group-behavior and we forget about ourselves. We constantly look away from how we behave, because, without realizing it, we still believe, we belong to an undifferentiated unity-soup. Thus, seen from the DL-perspective, everyone, Left or Right, is in favor of globalization, open borders or that we are all in this together.

 

Looking away – during DL – is a matter of listening away and, involuntarily, unconsciously, staying busy with many unnecessary things. Listening away means, we do not say and, therefore, we cannot hear, which or what could do us good. As a result, we obsessively do all kinds of things against our own interest.  This all-encompassing dissociative behavior, arises from our usual way of speaking, which everyone considers as normal, in which we unconsciously produce a voice, that alienates us from ourselves. This aspect of DL has never been properly perceived or discussed by us, because we have continued to make many judgments about it, which only caused continuation of our DL.  Whether or not we listen to ourselves while we speak with ourselves or with others,  always depends on the situation in which either one or the other happens. Recognizing that situation, requires us to speak to ourselves and by listening to our voice, we then begin to perceive, whenever we are listening to ourselves and whenever we are not. Thus, with our language, we create the situation in which our DL stops and our EL can continue. In fact, it is the sound of our own speaking voice, which produces our language, that creates the situation for our EL.

 

In closing, here are ten jokes about sensation. 1) You know that tingly sensation you get when you like somebody? That’s common sense leaving your body. 2) I am sensational when it comes to remembering names. But every Tom, Rick and Larry knows that. 3) Do you know that mouth-watering sensation you get when you smell a steak cooking on the grill? Is that what happens to vegans when they mow the grass? 4) What do you call that weird sensation when you are suddenly teleported from the North Pole to the South Pole, or vice versa? Bi-polar Disorder. 5) My least favorite sexual position is COVID-69. The masks really take the sensation away. 6) Back in the 80’s when I was taking a EMT course, to volunteer on the local ambulance service, we were in the middle of  a class on bodily fluids and gloves and masks. During the lecture, the instructor asked us, “Do you know what the first sign of A.I.D.S is?” It being a new thing back then we really didn’t have any answers. After a few minutes he advised us that “It is a pounding sensation in your ass. 7) I know why I get so many down votes. Apparently, I am a huge sensation in Australia. 8) Having a good friend is just like peeing in your pants. Everybody can see it, but only you feel that warm sensation of happiness. 9) The teacher asked: what is sex? Johnny got up and say: sex is a temptation, cause by a sensation, where a boy stick his location, in a girl’s destination, to increase the population of the next generation. Do you get my explanation? The teacher fainted. 10) Have you heard about the Broadway-bound sensation, “The Linguists?” It’s a real play on words. Hahaha.       

 Gewaarwording,

 

Uiteraard is er, zolang er nog onze gebruikelijke Ontlichaamde Taal (OT) is, altijd een gewaarwording van angst en bedreiging. Als wij echter eindelijk Belichaamde Taal (BT) hebben, dan is het eigenlijk bijna onvoorstelbaar, dat wij blijkbaar altijd een taal gebruik hebben gehad, dat niets dan catastofale gevolgen had. Het niet kunnen of willen toegeven, dat OT verschikkelijk is, blijft een van de belangrijkste redenen, dat wij er nog steeds mee voort blijven gaan, want het komt ons schijnbaar nog steeds voor – omdat wij zielig en een slachtoffer zijn – dat wij er niets aan konden doen, terwijl dat helemaal niet waar is. Wij kunnen en konden er wel degelijk iets aan doen, maar hebben nog nooit stil gestaan bij OT, omdat het volledige erkennen van ons gebrek aan verantwoordelijkheid inhoudt, dat wij niet vrij zijn en dus slaaf zijn van onze gewoonte. Wij doen liever alsof dit niet zo is en houden onszelf voor de gek.

 

Ofschoon het overduidelijk is, dat wij telkens weer opnieuw handelen vanuit een patroon, waaraan wij lijken te zitten vastgebakken – en het dus helemaal niet waar is, dat ons gedrag zich op een onverklaarbare wijze eindeloos blijft herhalen – gaan wij koppig verder met het doen wat wij altijd hebben gedaan, ook al weten we donders goed dat het geen goed resultaat kan en zal gaan hebben en dat we niet doen, wat er gedaan zou moeten worden, om echte gedrags verandering te bewerkstelligen. En, het niet kunnen toegeven, dat wij niet weten, wat wij zouden kunnen doen, om iets beters te bereiken, is niet eens waar het om draait. Waar het om gaat, is dat wij niet beseffen, dat wij ergens mee op zouden moeten houden, om eindelijk onze tragische, domme, voorspelbare herhaling te voorkomen.

 

Wij doen iets wezelijks voor onszelf, als wij het gedrag benoemen, wat door OT was veroorzaakt, in stand werd gehouden en er conceptueel onverbrekelijk mee was verbonden. Wij zouden met al dit gedrag moeten ophouden, om BT te kunnen hebben. Anders gezegd, wij zijn niet in staat, om werkelijk op te houden met onze OT, zolang wij ons nog niet bewust hebben bezig gehouden, met het herkennen van en het ophouden met het gedrag dat samenhing met OT. Wij houden alleen dan pas eindelijk op om te zijn, wie wij zogenaamd dachten te zijn, als wij erkennen, dat alles wat wij zogenaamd met voorbedachte rade hebben gedaan, geheel zinloos en problematisch was. Geen enkel gedrag mag aan onze aandacht ontglippen, want vanwege onze OT, zijn wij gewend, om voortdurend aandacht te geven aan allerlei zaken, die helemaal niets opleveren. Het lijkt, alsof wij met onze OT, onze behoeftes vervullen, maar die veronderstelde noodzakelijke dingen, die wij nog steeds geloven nodig te hebben, weerhouden ons ervan, om toe te geven, dat onze werkelijke behoeftes – om met onze taal over onze eigen ervaring te spreken – eigenlijk nooit aan bod komt.  

 

Het gaat er ook niet om, zoals men vaak hoort zeggen, dat men diepere of hogere behoeftes zou hebben of dat men bezig zou blijven, met platvloerse oppervlakkigheden, want het komt er simpelweg op neer, dat wij, in OT, niet naar onszelf luisteren. Met andere woorden, er kan alleen helderheid, zekerheid en continuiteit onstaan in onze taal, indien wij, keer op keer, onze OT stoppen en veranderen in BT, door te erkennen, dat wij eerst niet naar onszelf luisterden en daarna weer wel. Het benoemen van onze eigen OT als OT en het beschrijven van het onomstotelijke feit, dat wij weer niet naar onszelf luisterden, is van even groot belang, als dat wij zeggen, dat twee en twee vier is en geen vijf.

 

Iedere weigering, om niet toe te geven, dat wij in onze alledaagse, ongevoelige, automatische OT niet naar onszelf luisteren, komt voort uit OT, waardoor wij beweren, dat het niet uitmaakt, wat er met ons gebeurt tijdens ons leven, omdat wij in een macht, die hoger is dan onszelf, zijn blijven geloven, die op wonderlijke wijze zal zorgen, dat alles wel goed zal komen. Deze grandioze, wanhopige, spirituele, overal-voorkomende, waanzin toont aan, dat wij, als individu, nog nooit aan onszelf zijn toegekomen. Vanwege onze OT leveren wij onszelf uit aan het cultureel vereiste groeps-gedrag, in plaats van onszelf. Wij kijken voortdurend weg, omdat wij, zonder er erg in te hebben, geloven toe te behoren aan een ongedifferentieerde eenheids-soep. Bezien vanuit OT, is iedereen, Links of Rechts, dus voor de globalizering.

 

Wegkijken in OT is een kwestie van wegluisteren en het onwillekeurige bezig blijven met vele onnodige zaken. Wegluisteren betekent dat wij niet zeggen en daardoor niet kunnen horen, wat ons goed zou kunnen doen. Bijgevolg doen wij van allerlei dingen tegen ons zin in. Dit alomvattende dissociatieve gedrag komt voort uit onze gewone, door iedereen als normaal beschouwde wijze van spreken, waarin wij onbewust een stem geluid produceren, dat ons vervreemd van onszelf. Dit aspect van OT is nog nooit goed door ons waargenomen, omdat wij er allerlei oordelen over zijn blijven houden, wat dus de voortgang van OT bewerkstelligt. Of wij wel of niet naar onszelf luisteren, terwijl wij met onszelf of met andere spreken, hangt altijd af van de situatie, waarin ofwel het een of het ander gebeurt. Het herkennen van die situatie vereist, dat wij met onszelf spreken en door te luisteren naar onszelf, beginnen wij dan waar te nemen, wanneer wij wel en wanneer wij niet naar onszelf luisteren. Aldus creeren wij met onze taal de situatie waarin onze OT stopt en onze BT kan blijven voortduren. Eigenlijk is het dus de klank van onze eigen spreek-stem, die onze taal voortbrengt, die de situatie creert voor BT.            

 Personal,

 

People want to be free individuals, yet they get all upset and wimpy, when things get personal. We finally get personal, when we have Embodied Language (EL), as we admit, we have, unknowingly, been hiding in our impersonal, automatic, ineffective, coercive, unrealistic, dissociative Disembodied Language (DL). During DL, we only pretend things aren’t personal, but, of course, they always are, since we, each, experience, as individuals, our own reality, which is based on the inevitable consequences of our own behavioral repertoire.

 

Obviously, we all have a personal life, but in our unconscious DL, we can’t talk about it, because we don’t listen to ourselves while we speak. As a consequence, our language in DL doesn’t fit with our experience. In EL, by contrast, we are always personal, because we listen to ourselves while we speak. In EL, there is a perfect match, congruence, alignment, between what we say and how we say it, as our language describes our experience, correctly. Oddly, in DL, we say someone is taking things too personal, because he or she actually describes correctly, that he or she is affected by what has been said. Therefore, whenever people say, don’t take it personal, they actually say, don’t have EL, but have DL!

 

It is not an exaggeration to say, that during DL, we are all, unknowingly, constantly, attacking each other. Since we don’t listen to ourselves, while we speak, we inadvertently, dominate the listener, while we struggle with other speakers, to get the listener’s or the audience’s attention. During our habitual DL, speakers always sound demanding, as only a few people can win the struggle for the attention, due to which other speakers are reduced to listeners, who, at best, only sometimes may say something about what the so-called powerful, victorious, presumably important, speaker allows them to say. Since the struggle for attention is the reality of DL, speakers are adversaries, who so to speak, try to blow holes in each other’s arguments. Also, whenever we say, don’t take it personal, we tell others not to feel, not to be offended, not to be negatively affected – by something that was said or done – at an imaginary personal level.

 

The plain and simple truth, which we can only acknowledge, during our ongoing EL, is that whenever we talk with one another, we are always – personally – positively or negatively affected. However, during our usual, insensitive, mechanical, effortful DL, we cannot talk about this, because there is no possibility for the listener, who is not the speaker, to become the speaker – to take turns with the speaker – and to provide feedback, by saying, hey speaker, it is not what you say, but how you say it. In other words, there is no attunement to each other, because DL is always my way or the highway.

 

During ongoing EL, we speak about and realize, to our amazement, there absolutely doesn’t exist any inner language or private speech and therefore, there is nothing what we imagine to be experiencing on a personal level. Certainly, there is what we are able to say or what we are unable to say, what we are allowed to say or what we are not allowed to say, but in EL, we are always able to say, what we are willing to say and what we are capable of saying. Yes, during ongoing EL, we feel safe, open and at ease, but during our common DL, we feel threatened, defensive, secretive, manipulative, which creates the illusion of inner speech, mind or thought, of language within our own skin.

 

When people say: don’t take it personal, it’s just business, they say something about language as phenomenon, which, supposedly, excludes you. However, language always affects you, even if, due to your common, unnatural DL, you have remained incapable and unskillful of putting your finger on what that effect is. You could also say, presumably, in a kindlier fashion: don’t beat yourself up over what was just said. However, this still incorrectly refers to what we are doing, personally, supposedly, to ourselves, with inaudible, fantasized, so-called private speech. By the way, in DL, we are always critical and judgmental about ourselves, since nothing of what we say about ourselves is actually true. As a result, we are chronically dissatisfied about ourselves.  

 

In EL, we don’t say dismissive, hurtful or nasty things, but in argumentative, stressful, competitive DL, we constantly, unknowingly, say something to put ourselves above others and to put others down. DL is hierarchical, but EL is heterarchical, which means, someone is more important than you. In DL and you are not important to yourself, but in EL, we are in touch with ourselves. DL is impersonal, but EL is personal. Since we don’t know about the difference between DL and EL, we are stuck with DL, with which we cannot be personal. Our relationships are as conflicted and troubled as they are, due to our DL, which we have never been able to stop, so we could have ongoing EL. 

 

In closing, I want to express my personal view about science. Presumably, personal opinions don’t matter, because our subjective beliefs are considered to be a stand-in-the-way to scientific objectivity. However, this impersonal, inhuman view derives from DL, in which we, as speakers, don’t listen to ourselves. Science has, tragically, but inevitably, due to our ubiquitous DL, historically, always over-emphasized the importance of written language, but it has underestimated and ignored the great relevance of and the urgent need for scientific spoken language, which is EL. Science with its strict rules and calculations, is meant to be impersonal and unbiased. What everyone, who has had some education, should know by now, however, is there is no such a thing as impersonal or unbiased science. While scientists have made great strides towards objectivity, there are still areas where it can be improved. Our spoken language, specifically, our DL, is the elephant in the scientific room.          

 

 Fodder,

 

Fodder is food for domestic animals, especially, coarse food for horses, cows, sheep and pigs. However, fodder is also what the Democratic main-stream media feeds to people, who suffer from Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS). It is disastrous, that media and education have been overtaken by Left-wing politics, which pushes anti-Americanism, antisemitism, weirdness and chaos. There’s something inherently childish, perverted and stupid about fodder, which is best described by the charm of endearing child actors, who later become tabloid fodder once they grow up. Fodder is about some form of abuse, which is presented as lost innocence.

 

Our habitual, accepted, common, automatic, unnatural, unintelligent way of talking – which I call Disembodied Language (DL) – in which we don’t listen to ourselves, while we speak, is superficial, meaningless fodder, because we don’t listen to ourselves while we speak. No, it doesn’t feed anyone, DL is horseshit. The other day, I was riding my bicycle at the park, where there are stations, from which people can get a little plastic bag, to pick up their dogshit and throw it in the garbage. However, I saw some people on horses, who laid piles of shit, which are ten times as big as dogshit, but nobody picks that up. Supposedly, horseshit is okay!?

 

This constant scoring of political points, by the Left and the Right, is fodder, that obfuscates the issues, which are never properly addressed, let alone solved. People say, it is politics as usual and they casually call politics a blood sport, but they never realize, it is always more of the same destructive DL. Since we don’t know anything yet, about the great difference between DL and Embodied Language (EL), there is no understanding at all, about what politics would be with ongoing EL. However, this is the only real future of mankind.

 

Have you heard about cannon-fodder? It is an informal, derogatory term for combatants, who are regarded or treated by the government or by the military command as expendable, in the face of enemy fire. The term is generally used in situations where combatants are forced to fight against hopeless odds – with foreknowledge that they will suffer extremely high casualties – in an effort to achieve a strategic goal. For example, trench warfare in Word War I. Also, the term is used pejoratively, to differentiate infantry, that is, those who actively engage in warfare combat and other forces – such as artillery, air force or navy – to distinguish expendable low-grade inexperienced combatants from the more military valuable veterans. In DL, everyone is cannon fodder, as the only objective, is to dominate and win the battle for attention, which is the essence of DL.   

 

During our repetitive, humorless, meaningless,  profoundly troublesome DL, people are treated as things, which are only useful for a stated purpose. In the struggle for survival, in which everyone wants to be important or famous, we feed off of each other and politicians are always good fodder for comedians, who, supposedly, make jokes about them. Anyone with EL, never laughs at these phony jokes. Humor with EL is based on laughter about our stupid DL, that is, in EL, we laugh about ourselves. Yes, in EL, we no longer fear or try to protect or defend, our overrated cherished dreams. In EL, we laugh together about our grandiose childish fantasies, which are now fodder for public entertainment.  

 

The kind of fodder, people gossip about at the water cooler or in the locker room, is always DL, but there is an underlying attempt at EL. People want to talk and connect, but don’t know how else to do it, then with their usual fodder. We are made to believe DL is okay, when in fact, it prevents us from having EL and, therefore, it is absolutely not okay. Somewhere, somehow, we all know, we that could have – and really need to have – real conversation, instead of our usual fodder, but our DL-conditioning is too strong.  

 

I was walking by the second hand book store. In the windows were all the pathetic books, which were written by people, who ambitiously had wanted to publish a book and become famous. I was glad not be one of them, because I didn’t want this writing to be fodder. My work is not for sale and EL cannot be bought. You cannot and you do not need to buy into my message. As long as you still assume, you have to believe in or have faith in, what I or what someone else  says or writes, you are merely a consumer and as such, you are always being used as fodder.

 Ridiculous,

 

You, with your Disembodied Language (DL), are totally ridiculous. It is so obvious, that you are suffering, yet, you make it seem, as if you are doing great. You cannot acknowledge – with your DL – you have problems, which don’t go away, but which will only get bigger and more complicated, as the years go by. Why can’t you admit, you feel hurt and everything you do, is a failed attempt, at trying to not feel aggrieved?

 

Ridiculous comes from Latin ridiculus, which means laughable, funny, absurd; ridere, to laugh. Related to the French word, risible, given to laughter, from Latin risus, past particle of ridere, to laugh. Once you know the difference between DL and Embodied Language (EL), it no longer makes any sense to consider DL as your choice, because you engage in it unconsciously and so, the whole idea of moving away from EL is quite ridiculous.

 

With automatic, unnatural, effortful, stupid DL, in which people are only able to pretend they have EL, nobody is having self-care, self-acceptance or self-understanding, to acknowledge – with language – what they are going through and they can only act tough, defensive or arrogant, to show, they are supposedly fine and in charge of their lives. Surely, they are reactive, instead of responsive. The difference between these two is enormous, because being responsive requires a different way of dealing with their language.

 

In EL, you listen to yourself while you speak, but in DL, you either want others to listen to you, or you are listening to others, but you never listen to yourself. It is absolutely ridiculous, after all these years of me speaking and writing about it, you still don’t have a clear sense about the importance of the difference between, when you listen to yourself, while you speak and when you don’t listen to yourself, while you speak. No matter how you much you want to avoid this, your way of dealing with language depends on your DL or your EL.

 

Don’t make it seem, as if I – or someone else – is responsible for addressing your ridiculous DL, because you need to stop it, before you are able to have EL with me or with anyone else. DL, in which you never speak out loud with yourself and, consequently, never have the chance to listen to yourself, is like a ridiculous concept to me. What you consider as listening to yourself, is your belief in the fantasy of inner language. I can speak about it, as I know the difference between DL and EL, so I can go on with my EL.

 

As long as you still go on with your draining DL, you still don’t know the difference between DL and EL. All you are really capable of is DL and more DL, which isn’t helping you. In fact, you are your own worst enemy. Your stubbornness, is actually your stupidity, because, how can you say that you are in charge of your life, when you don’t listen to yourself while speak? You refuse to admit that you are stuck with DL. Since I have EL, I can hear and see what is really going on. It doesn’t bother me – but it bothers you, that it doesn’t bother me – that you are stuck with DL.

 

What is so ridiculous about the aging process, is that it is more and more difficult, to keep up our tendency, to have DL. Go ahead, have some more DL, I’m not part of your sour way of getting old. Your way of life – to have DL – happens to be everyone’s way of life, because when it comes to language, we are all equally conditioned and gaslighted by our culture. It may sound exaggerated, that everyone, like you, engages in DL. That is the reality. I didn’t make it that way. Stop blaming me for pointing this out. I am about EL, which can only happen, if you recognize how hopeless your DL really is.

 

We have all endlessly gone through a ridiculous length, to presumably have some EL, but we are still having DL. It isn’t bad because I say so, but because you say so. Yes, you don’t even realize, you have already said – a million times – that your DL is bad, that your DL should stop, that you don’t like your DL and that your DL is the cause of all your problems. So, why haven’t you stopped it? I know why. You haven’t talked with me. You haven’t seriously read and understood what I’ve been saying and writing: you need to stop your own ugly DL. You need to tell yourself that you can’t go on with that shit. Unless you do that, you can’t talk with me. You have been lazy, irresponsible, cheap and superficial. You have always said, you, supposedly, wanted to have EL, but you always went back to your dumb DL.

 

It may seem ridiculous to you, but all your effort to have EL has been in vain and a waste of your time. Everyone in DL, is constantly pretending to have the moral high ground, but someone like me, who has ongoing EL, laughs about this. I know, you don’t like to hear that, but you can’t un-hear or un-read, what I’ve just made you understand. The buck stops with you. Basically, all the people with DL, have always been saying, all along, oh no, we don’t have DL, we have EL, and since nobody knows what – the hell – EL is, they get away with DL, but I know what EL is.

 

I don’t refer to EL as some ridiculous, idealistic, spiritual hypothetical. This is what everyone in DL is always doing, even when they claim not to have any religion. My ongoing EL signifies my Language Enlightenment (LE). Even if my history with DL rears its end again, I will stop it, as this it the only way to continue my EL. This writing is the result of my joy, intelligence and ability, to express my LE with my EL. Many people have come and gone, who said, they wanted to have EL, but they only went on with it for a while and then, they gave up. The undeniable reality of our EL is, that we have never created – together – the safe circumstances often enough, in which it could continue. Due to our conditioning with DL, we have always, at some point, distrusted each other and backed out. In other words, there never really was any faith in love. Instead, we have continued to believe in our fantasies, which always distracted us from the real deal. I am not distracted from my LE, as I have EL.

 

In closing, here are seven ridiculous jokes. 1) How do your build suspense?.......(?) I was at a funeral of a friend of mine. His wife asked me if I could say a quick word. I stood at the front, cleared my throat, chocked back the tears and said “Plethoria”. “Thank you” his wife said, as I sat down. “That means a lot.” 3) I had a dream last night I was a muffler…I woke up exhausted. 4) What do you call a fake-noodle? An impasta! 5) Did you hear about the guy who stole the cheese? He was up to no Gouda. 6) Two fish are in a tank. One turns to the other and says “How do you drive this thing?” 7) I used to be afraid of hurdles, but then I got over it.
