An outstanding essay! Your insight about reading Dostoyevsky in the original is very astute. It's even truer regarding poetry, which is utterly untranslatable. It's worth learning Russian just to be able to read Pushkin in the original.
The intent or capacity to weaponise communication works a sense of private possession and control in which the meanings we give are then the meanings that become our subjection.
Everything of One remains a symbiosis of the whole, but split off from one is 'othered'. Othered can be seen as resulting from Separation trauma. The petroglyphs and symbols of our archetypeture are not of a true Father but of awesome, terrifying and catastrophic events that is set in collective amnesia but none the less active as the mythological basis of our personae of both personal and social masking. Running as normalisation of the lie and the father of the lie = or the mind of a wish to possess and control its own reality.
To use communication as a means to block intimacy while conditionally joining in terms of external attributes or symbolic virtues is to make a tolerable illusion or substitution for love. But there is no substitution for love as every addict knows, though not everyone knows the nature of socially accepted or demanded addictive compulsive rituals of behaviour.
That we can be 'found' or awakened' from a belief or dream of a self and world to a truly felt connected presence is simply that truth remains true - and available to the release of the identification in the false as an attempt to become true - or to become something we are not.
regardless that I let the field of my desire and purpose selct the words I have used, the communication is not in the words. The capacity to read and feel the presence within a communication is a resonance of being. But a boost of confirmation to our thought system by mere agreement or support can be part of the trading of strokes seeking and finding social reinforcement. The cup that overfloweth is like a light that shines because it alights in joy. The use of the light as a focus for guilting or manipulating self and others is how we both adulterate the truth and set a block where a bridge or a truly supporting guidance would bring us back into balance. A false with-ness cannot but see treachery in love that it only sometimes permits in limited conditions.
The key to communication is releasing the manipulative use of the form of communication as if to mean anything or be worthy of engaging in. But of course to those who have learned and adpated to and within the mask, I can only speak nonsense - if I wasn't pre-emptively avoided as defence against contagion. "For what is love but a deceit by which to weaken defences and be robbed even of the little that ye hath?"
Weaponising and marketising is the problem hidden within science.
Possession and control from a sense of self-lack in division seeking external solution - such as two or more can join in agreement to NOT look within.
Thank you for your incredibly informative writing. I especially appreciate your direct and simple style, easy to understand yet never dumbing down. Listening to you read your essays, I feel that I’ve found a friend and we could sit down with a cup (or three) of coffee or tea and talk for hours. Keep writing and reading my friend.
"Language is what makes us human"... doesn't look it has accomplished a Great Thing!
In reality since language is a byproduct of Thought I can only declare that nothing Balanced comes out of language.
If it did I would expect that uman animals wouldn't be living and acting the way they have been for Millennia.
So... I must ask that the author defines what is a "human"?
