My point of view in writing this note is NEITHER THE CONSERVATIVE/REPUBLICAN point of view, NOR the LIBERAL/DEMOCRAT point of view.  The point of view that this note is coming from is the TRANSFORMATIONAL point of view.  It is the point of view of David Bohm and Irwin Schroedinger.  It is the point of view of indigenous aborignals as well as Taoists/Buddhists and Advaita Vedanta adherents and it is the point of view of Modern physics.

 

The TRANSFORMATIONAL point of view requires the LESS SIMPLE NONBINARY BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM (e.g. “there is towning in the transforming landscape” while the CONSERVATIVE and LIBERAL ponts of views are commonly expressed using SIMPLE BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC of the EXCLUDED MEDIUM (e.g. “the town is growing, developing and producing goods”)

The ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE of the Google AI BOT can work with both NONBINARY BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM as well as BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC of the EXCLUDED MEDIUM and distinguish between them (as will be evident from the examples in this note.

I am using the (Google) AI BOT in the examples in this essay to probe issues that crop up in our linguistic conceptualization based understanding such as the difference in understanding that derives from language that employs a simple BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC of the EXCLUDED MEDIUM conceptualizing scheme, compared with language that employs the less simple NONBINARY BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM conceptualizing scheme.

The simple BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC of the EXCLUDED MEDIUM scheme is the COMMON LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SCHEME of us WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS while the latter (the NONBINARY BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM) is the COMMON LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SCHEME of Chief Seattle since indigenous aboriginals, in their traditional way of understanding things which is NOT in agreement with either CONSERVATIVES or LIBERALS because the indigenous aboriginal mode of understanding employs the less simple BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM lingiustic conceptualizing structure, which is what Bohm is using (his ‘rheomode’ language) which I am also using when I am in the same mode of thinking as Bohm (which is the same mode of thinking as indigenous aboriginal traditionalists are using).  An example of the less simple NONBINARY BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM based linguistic conceptualizing approach is; “There is TOWNING in the TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE” which captures the reality that everything is in TRANSFORMATIVE FLUX (as Heraclitus rightly affirmed).

In order to put into perspective, the MORE REALISTIC TRANSFORMATIVE WAY OF UNDERSTANDING THINGS, I have to remind the reader that there is a THIRD LEVEL OF AWARENESS (understanding) that is BEYOND THE REACH of the CONSERVATIVE/REPUBLICAN understanding and beyond the reach of LIBERAL/DEMOCRAT understanding, and it is the FIRST and HIGHEST of THREE LEVELS of AWARENESS (as described by Erich Jantsch) that can be distinguished as the TRANSFORMATIONAL AWARENESS level.

 

Our discussion on the CONSERVATIVE and LIBERAL AWARENESS LEVELS (levels 3 and 2) is TOO SIMPLE to capture the FIRST and HIGHEST TRANSFORMATION LEVEL wherein everything is in flux and which REQUIRES A LANGUAGE that can convey fluid relational dynamics withiout dependence on MATERIAL BEING; i.e. a relational language such as used by indigenous aboriginals and as used by David Bohm (rheomode) etc.   So, in order to be able to describe IN FULL WHAT THE DEMOCRATS ARE BLIND TO, AS THEY CELEBRATE THEIR MIDTERM WINS, I have to use the full THREE LEVEL LANGUAGE CAPABILITY which any of us can use, but which WE WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS DON’T NORMALLY USE because we are in the habit of using simple BINARY LOGIC based conceptualization which is supported in both CONSERVATIVE (like Trump) and LIBERAL (like Obama) linguistic communicating styles.  We (most of us) aren’t able to tune in to Chief Seattle’s linguistic conceptualizing approach, but as Bohm has pointed out, it is MODERN PHYSICS COMPATIBLE which means that it has a NONBINARY BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM foundation whereas we WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS are habitually using a simple BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC of the EXCLUDED MEDIUM foundation, which is SIMPLER and which does NOT support the conveying of LEVEL 1 AWARENESS, the AWARENESS OF TRANSFORMATION.

 

OK, I will insert here, a description of the THREE LEVELS of AWARENESS that will prepare us for discussion that goes BEYOND THE LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING REACH OF THE BINARY OPPOSITES OF CONSERVATIVE and LIBERAL LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING.  I need this reference to explain WHAT THE DEMOCRATS ARE BLIND TO, AS THEY CELEBRATE THEIR MIDTERM WINS
