INTRODUCTION: Language ‘works’ by using visual and/or oral symbols that trigger in our minds recall of sensory experience, either real or imagined.

Indigenous aboriginal language orients language architecture to our sense-experience of INCLUSION WITHIN THE TRANSFORMING RELATIONAL CONTINUUM (the WAVE-FIELD) wherein, for example, “There is TOWNING in the TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE that WE ALL SHARE INCLUSION IN.  This mode of representation captures the NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT nature of a realty that is in continual flux, wherein there are no persisting THINGS-THAT-BE since everything is included within ONE TRANSFORMING RELATIONAL CONTINUUM and thus it would be a mistake to us NAMING in the sense of signifying LOCAL, EXPLICIT ‘BEING’.  The indigenous aboriginal scheme of NAMING acknowledges the realty that EVERYTHING IS RELATED (“mitakuye oyasins”) therefore the language based representation is grounded in NAMES which do NOT REPRESENT LOCAL, EXPLICIT THINGS-IN-THEMSELVES but relational forms within the transforming relational continuum (the WAVE-FIELD) such as ‘Dances with Wolves’ or ‘Running Bear’ which does not go down the path of creating the ABSOLUTE abstraction of “BEING”.  Instead, indigenous aboriginal language architecture preserves the FLOW-based nature of the ALL-INCLUDING, TRANSFORMING RELATIONAL CONTINUUM aka the WAVE-FIELD.

IN CONTRAST, “WESTERN CULTURE” language architecture orients to the ABSTRACT CONCEPT of BEINGS created with NAMING and animated with GRAMMAR, thus breaking the WAVE-FIELD apart, extracting only the MALE ASSERTING conjugate and DROPPING OUT the FEMALE-ACCOMMODATING CONJUGATE,for example, “The TOWN is GROWING, DEVELOPING and PRODUCING products and services.  This LOCAL AUTHORING ABSTRACTION, fabricated with the DOUBLE ERROR of NAMING and GRAMMAR, allows us to construct a language based “SUBSTITUTE REALITY” by creating LOCAL FRAGMENTS that we can “ASSEMBLE WITH GRAMMAR’.  This ‘BOTTOM UP’ construction JUMPSTARTS by using NAMING to identify LOCAL EXPLICIT THINGS which we then shape and arrange with GRAMMAR that allows us to modify and arrange as if in an ABSOLUTE EMPTY AND INFINITE SPACE, to create an arrangement that serves as a carrier or vehicle for sharing our thoughts.   Hence, in this case, we can describe “THE TOWN” EXPLICITLY, as a LOCAL, EXPLICIT thing-in-itself and then use GRAMMAR to impute THING-SPECIFIC GROWTH and DEVELOPMENT to it for example, “The TOWN is GROWING, DEVELOPING and PRODUCING foods and services.  

 

THERE ARE PROBLEMS, BIG PROBLEMS, with our WESTERN CULTURE language architecture, the problems of FRAGMENTATION and OBSCURANTISM due to our elevating of the MALE-ASSERTING CONJUGATE into A PRIMARY SUBSTITUTE REALITY CONSTRUCTING ROLE and the DROPPING OUT of the FEMALE-ACCOMMODATING CONJUGATE which amounts to DROPPING OUT THE WAVE-FIELD and constructing a SUBSTITUTE REALITY based on CONDENSATIONS in the WAVE-FIELD.  The result is FRAGMENTATION and OBSCURANTISM within a language-based SUBSTITUTE REALITY that makes the MALE-ASSERTING CONJUGATE “CONDENSATIONS” the PRIMARY REALITY and SUBSTITUTES ABSOLUTE EMPTY AND INFINITE SPACE for the FEMALE-ACCOMMODATING CONJUGATE “WAVE-FIELD”.  The constructing of this SUBSTITUTE REALITY “OBSCURES” the natural primacy of the WAVE-FIELD, making FALSE IDOLS, as Nietzsche calls them, out of the CONDENSATIONS.

[In the title Twilight of the Idols, or, How to Philosophize with a Hammer (Götzen-Dämmerung, oder, Wie man mit dem Hammer philosophiert), Nietzsche’s use of the Götzen-Dämmerung title was a pun on Wagner’s ‘Götterdämmerung’ (the Twilight of the Gods).  That is, Götze is a German word for “idol” or “false god”. Elevating the stature of the CONDENSATIONS of the WAVE-FIELD to an unnatural PRIMACY within a SUBSTITUTE REALITY in which ABSOLUTE EMPTY AND INFINITE SPACE has been SUBSTITUTED for WAVE-FIELD, is what our WESTERN CULTURE is currently doing.   This SUBSTITUTE REALITY is being mocked by Nietzsche, using the metaphor of smashing the CONDENSATIONS we are mistakenly elevating, in our language, to an unnatural primacy over the WAVE-FIELD (reducing the WAVE-FIELD PROPER to a notional ABSOLUTE EMPTY SPACE so the IDOLIZED CONDENSATIONS are notionally FREE TO STRUT THEIR STUFF.]

 

OBSCURANTISM (the practice of deliberately preventing the facts or full details of something from becoming known.) captures what is going on here in this unnatural ELEVATING of the CONDENSATIONS of the WAVE-FIELD within a SUBSTITUTE REALITY wherein the PROMOTING of the status of the CONDENSATIONS is matched by the DEMOTING of the WAVE-FIELD to a notional ABSOLUTE EMPTY SPACE status.  THIS IS OBSCURANTISM AND IT HAS BEEN GIVEN A FOUNDATIONAL ROLE IN WESTERN CULTURE LANGUAGE-BASED REPRESENTATIONS OF A “SUBSTITUTE REALITY” which we WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS are employing as our OPERATIVE REALITY.

WE WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS “have our ladder up against the wrong wall” in that we are trying to IMPROVE the functioning within a reality WHICH IS NOT sense-experience grounded reality but a language-based abstract intellectual SUBSTITUTE REALITY wherein we have elevated the CONDENSATIONS of the WAVE-FIELD and given them UNNATURAL PRIMACY over the WAVE-FIELD by reducing the WAVE-FIELD to a notional ABSOLUTE EMPTY and INFINITE SPACE.

The way out of this UPSIDE-DOWN MESS for us WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS could by the BACK DOOR ROUTE shared by David Bohm or by the IDOL SMASHING ROUTE advocated by Nietzsche or by a combination thereof.  But FIRST comes the need for recognition of the UPSIDE-DOWN state of affairs which is being blocked by OBSCURANTISM wherein we have come to believe that BEING and LOCAL AUTHORING (the DOUBLE ERROR view) is the “real” nature of the world, rather than an all-including TRANSFORMING RELATIONAL CONTINUUM aka WAVE-FIELD.  That is, we may say that we can “SEE” that “THE TOWN IS GROWING, DEVELOPING and PRODUCING more products and inhabitants, or is it impossible for the TOWN to inhabit the same LANDSCAPE twice, “for it is NOT the SAME TOWN’, nor is it THE SAME LANDSCAPE” since everything is in flux within the all-including transforming relational continuum aka the wave-field.  We are evidently STUCK, because of our language, in the mode of holding on to the notion of a persisting BEING-based TOWN instead of accepting that there is TOWNING in the TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE.

A picture held us captive. And we could not get outside it, for it lay in our language and language seemed to repeat it to us inexorably. –-Wittgenstein

This has all been said before by Friedrich Nietzsche and by David Bohm, but it doesn’t seem to have been ‘that much heard’ because it easy for us WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS to understand.

Our WESTERN CULTURE LANGUAGE is confusing our understanding.  It puts us into a SUBSTITUTE REALITY, which is a TRAP that is easy to describe BUT NOT EASY TO AVOID FALLING INTO.
