The BIPOLAR DISORDER known as “WESTERN CULTURE NORMALITY”

What we call ‘normal’ is a product of repression, denial, splitting, projection, introjection and other forms of destructive action on experience.” — R.D. Laing
SYNOPSIS:
I am using the English language as the vehicle for sharing conceptual understanding that lies beyond the direct and explicit representational capabilities of this type of language. The limited concept conveying capabilities of this European NAMING and GAMMAR based language is a problem that has been identified by David Bohm and others in that because it employs an EXPLICIT form of representation, it cannot represent the fluid, flowing reality of the Wave-field; i.e. reality as understood in modern physics. This fluid reality requires a more comprehensive (higher dimensional) representational capability. That is, the reality of TRANSFORMATION wherein FIGURE-and-GROUND-are-ONE cannot be captured in a language whose basic conveyancing architecture is in terms of FIGURE-and-GROUND-as-TWO representations.
For example, “DUNING” and “DESERTING” are NONLOCAL resonance-based phenomena that are INEFFABLE-because-NONLOCAL (included within the transforming relational continuum so that we would have describe the entire NONLOCAL continuum in order to give meaning to anything “LOCAL”).
So, in order to ‘EFFABLE-ize’ the ‘INEFFABLE’, the trick is to employ the DOUBLE ERROR (Nietzsche) of language and grammar to ‘chop out’ a LOCAL piece of the transforming relational continuum for descriptive purposes. For example we figuratively CHOP OUT a LOCAL ‘DUNE’ from the NONLOCAL resonance phenomenon of DUNING in order to render EFFABLE-because-LOCAL, the INEFFABLE-because-NONLOCAL “DUNING”. In this DOUBLE ERROR ‘chop-out’ reduction, the FIRST ERROR is NAMING which imputes LOCAL thing-in-itself BEING, and we conflate this with the SECOND ERROR of GRAMMAR which imputes the power of SOURCING actions and developments to the notional NAMING instantiated LOCAL thing-in-itself. Make no mistake about it, … the natural phenomenon is NONLOCAL RESONANCE which is unbounded in SPACETIME, while our chopped out “DUNE” that we LOCAL-ize with “NAMING” and animate with “GRAMMAR” is abstracted into a notionally SEPARATE ‘absolute SPACE’ and absolute ‘TIME’ ‘operating ground’. Instead of FIGURE-and-GROUND-as ONE, … such abstraction gives us FIGURE-and-GROUND-as-TWO.
