INTRODUCTORY NOTE:

Western Medicine continues to employ the language of Europe of the Middle Ages to ‘EFFABLE-IZE’ what modern physics, as well as indigenous aboriginal, Taoist/Buddhist and Advaita Vedanta contend is INEFFABLE.  While David Bohm, Wittgenstein, Netzsche and others have pointed out the inadequacy of our language and grammar to capture the reality of our actual sensory experience (of inclusion in the “transforming relational continuum”, we WESTERN CULTURE adherents continue to employ inadequate ‘DOUBLE ERROR’ based language and grammar representations.

Using our inadequate language to try to reflect and share the current complex reality that we are experiencing inclusion in, is delivering confusing shortfalls.    This is the complex topic that I am trying to review here, using the same language that I have already mentioned lacks sufficient representational complexity to do the job (i.e. to ‘explicitly spit it out’).  However, we do have the tool of INFERENCE to employ, as in poetry and metaphor, (‘A man’s reach must exceed his grasp, or what’s a Meta for’ – McLuhan) .   For example, when I use language such as ‘the dune is growing taller and longer and shifting to the south’, … the reader may understand, particularly if a few reminders are thrown in, that what is going on here is the phenomenon of ‘resonance’ (the Wave-field dynamic) but since resonance is NONLOCAL it can’t be captured in EXPLICIT (voyeur-visualizable) terms and we must pass over such phenomena as resonance-based-transformation that we are included in, IN SILENCE, or switch to oblique relational INFERENCE such as where modern physics resorts to ‘The surprise version of the game of Twenty Questions’.

Today, the issue of COVID 19, presented as “a pathogen” (a ‘DOUBLE ERROR’ based abstraction) that has us all scurrying around trying to deal with “IT” and screwing up pretty much everything we have ‘going on’ in the process, exposes the limitations of our DOUBLE ERROR based language representations as never before.  This note explores some of the complexities of representation and articulation of what is going on, in regard to what we are calling the COVID 19 Pandemic

The NONLOCALITY characterizing TRANSFORMATION is not something that we WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS can easily support.  We are the ones that search under the streetlight (in the brightness of the EXPLICIT) for that which we have lost (our deepest, intuitive understanding) in the dark (in the obscurity of the IMPLICIT and relational).

We portray the cigarette butt-tosser as a PATHOGEN that sources forest-fires because that is LOCAL and EXPLICIT while solar irradiance related TRANSFORMATION of the forest into a tinder-box is NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT.

We WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS like to ‘call a spade a spade’ and if Jean Valjean is involved in relational TRANSFORMATION wherein there is a natural implicit tendency for shifting from regions of relative surplus to regions of relative deficiency (as from crest to trough in fluid dynamics), we WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS prefer to interpret this implicit dynamic in the explicit terms of the act of a PATHOGEN.
