BECOMING AWARE OF OUR LIVING IN A WAVE-FIELD WORLD

* * * * * * * * * *

PREFACE: WARNING IN REGARD TO THE DUMBED DOWN LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATIONS WE WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS ARE USING IN OUR STANDARD COMMUNICATIONS.  My note is in NORMAL ENGLISH which is often SIMPLE BINARY LOGIC based where, for example, one may say …“the TOWN is GROWING, DEVELOPING and PRODUCING goods”  which captures ONLY the MALE ASSERTING/ACTUALIZING conjugate without mentioning “the conjugate SHRINKING of the WILDERNESS” which is the FEMALE ACCOMMODATING/ENABLING conjugate, these conjugates being two sides of the same concept formation; i.e. the WAVE structure.  Beyond LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATION is OUR HIGHEST LEVEL of AWARENESS of ALL-INCLUDING TRANSFORMATION (Jantsch’s LEVEL 1 AWARENESS) while LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATIONS can come in EITHER LEVEL 2 “LIBERAL AWARENESS” where we acknowledge BOTH the female accommodating/enabling AND the male asserting/actualizing WAVE-FIELD (conjugate) structure, while LEVEL 3 “CONSERVATIVE” AWARENESS is where we acknowledge ONLY the male asserting/actualizing mechanistic DOER-DEED structure.  Our CHOICE of which of these THREE LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING “AWARENESS” options to give the FOUNDATIONAL ROLE  to in our LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING; i.e;   (1) TRANSFORMATIVE AWARENESS where everything is in flux, (2), LIBERAL AWARENESS [where, when there is male-asserting/actualizing GROWTH of the TOWN there is CONJUGATE female accommodating/enabling SHRINKING of WILDERNESS] and CONSERVATIVE  AWARENESS [where there is SIMPLY one-sided male-asserting GROWTH OF THE TOWN as if transpiring in absolute empty and infinite space]. 

These three different levels of AWARENESS are infused into our LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SCHEMES; i.e. MODERN PHYSICS along with INDIGENOUS ABORIGINALS, TAOISTS/BUDDHISTS and ADVAITA VEDANTA ADHERENTS give the foundational role in AWARENESS-STIMULATING LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING to (1) TRANSFORMATION which is NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT where everything is in flux; e.g. ‘THERE IS TOWNING IN THE TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE’.  AWARENESS LEVEL (2) of LIBERALS give the foundational role in LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING to the androgynous combination of male-asserting/actualizing GROWTH of the TOWN together with acknowledgement of CONJUGATE female accommodating/enabling SHRINKING of WILDERNESS.  AWARENESS LEVEL (3) of CONSERVATIVES give the foundational role in LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING to one-sided male asserting/actualizing… FULL STOP.  This LIMITED CONSERVATIVE LEVEL 3 AWARENESS is the source of BLINDERED male asserting/actualizing (actions, development and production) taken out of the AWARE context of either the LEVEL 2 conjugate SHRINKING OF WILDERNESS or LEVEL 1 AWARENESS of TRANSFORMATION.

 * * * * * * * * * * * * 

The language I just used for LEVEL 3 AWARENESS is composed of a POSITIVE MALE ASSERTING/ACTUALIZING PROPOSITION which is BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC based which is given a foundational role  in NEWTONIAN PHYSICS and also in the “COMMON AVERAGE EUROPEAN LANGUAGE FAMILY” in general.  As Benjamin Whorf observes, BINARY LOGIC is a SIMPLE LOGIC that derives from the “COMMON AVERAGE EUROPEAN LANGUAGE FAMILY”, and this BINARY LOGIC based LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING is TOO SIMPLE to capture WAVE-FIELD REALITY which requires the LESS SIMPLE “QUANTUM BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM”, for example “There is TOWNING in the TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE” .  In this BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM construction, EVERYTHING IS IN FLUX and there is NO DEPENDENCY on MATERIAL “BEING” based entities such as “A TOWN”  (there is only “TOWNING IN THE FLOWING”).    In this QUANTUM BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM based LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING scheme, THERE IS NO “BEING” that we can conflate with GRAMMAR to impute to “IT” … “ITS” own POWER of LOCAL AUTHORING of actions and development (e.g. its own GROWING, DEVELOPING and PRODUCING) as if a ‘BEING’ within an ABSOLUTE EMPTY AND INFINITE SPACE, the use of which is a recipe for FRAGMENTATION and OBSCURANTISM (eclipsing and wallpapering over the sense-experience affirmable REALITY of TRANSFORMATION).

In sLINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATIONS based on the BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM, which is what is used in MODERN PHYSICS, indigenous aboriginal cultures, Taoism/Buddhism and Advaita Vedanta, there is NO DEPENDENCY ON BINARY LOGIC and since BINARY LOGIC is the SOURCE of FRAGMENTATION and OBSCURANTISM, there is NO FRAGMENTATION nor OBSCURANTISM; e.g; as in our standard WESTERN CULTURE BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC of the EXCLUDED MEDIUM based LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZINGS, as already stated, we speak in terms such as “THE TOWN IS GROWING, DEVELOPING and PRODUCING PRODUCTS whereas when we use QUANTUM BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM in our LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZINGS, we speak in terms such as “THERE IS TOWNING IN THE TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE” wherein everything is in flux and there is no ‘BEING’.

Throughout this essay entitled BECOMING AWARE OF OUR LIVING IN A WAVE-FIELD WORLD”  there is the need to point out the limitations of our COMMONLY USED LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING scheme which, for example, imputes the existence of INDEPENDENT BEINGS as if in an empty, infinite space which requires simple BINARY LOGIC whereas the MODERN PHYSICS, indigenous aboriginal, Taoist/Buddhist and Advaita Vedanta understanding of people as strands in the web of life or as CONDENSATIONS of the ALL-ENCLUDING ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM, embody the BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING medium make-up; i.e. the STRAND is both ITSELF AND AT THE SAME TIME, THE WEB IT IS INCLUDED IN, and the CONDENSATION is both ITSELF AND AT THE SAME TIME, the ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM IT IS INCLUDED IN.

UNLIKE our WESTERN CULTURE BINARY LOGIC standard wherein we see things as LOCAL and EXPLICIT MATERIAL OBJECTS, … in our MODERN PHYSICS, indigenous aboriginal, Taoist/Buddhist and Advaita Vedanta QUANTUM LOGIC undestanding, we see the readily visible LOCAL and EXPLICIT as SECONDARY CONDENSATIONS of the NON-VISIBLE, NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT WAVE-FIELD.  WESTERN CULTURE CONFUSION arises through TOO SIMPLE NEWTONIAN PHYSICS which CONFUSES the LOCAL and EXPLICIT for the PRIMARY REALITY (mistaking the NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM [the real PRIMARY REALITY] for EMPTY SPACE and assuming its NON-PARTICIPATION when the REALITY is that SPACE IS NOT EMPTY, IT IS AN ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM.

 “Space is not empty.  It is full, a plenum as opposed to a vacuum, and is the ground for the existence of everything, including ourselves.” — David Bohm

The reader of this note on BECOMING AWARE OF OUR LIVING IN A WAVE-FIELD WORLD will be informed that wherever BINARY LOGIC is encountered in citations from our standard WESTERN CULTURE conversations, the reader must do the needed upgrading, thus where there is text that says the TOWN IS GROWING” , the reader must upgrade his own LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING to “THERE IS TOWNING IN THE TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE”, and where there is discussion of WESTERN CULTURE PURIFICATIONIST JUSTICE where BINARY LOGIC is used to REWARD GOOD BEINGS and PUNISH BAD BEINGS, the reader must upgrade his LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING to QUANTUM LOGIC based RESTORATIVE JUSTICE where the understanding is that outbreaks of violence derive from NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT relational influences within the social matrix, in which case, the WESTERN CULTURE kneejerk response of MISIDENTIFYING the AUTHORING SOURCE as the LOCAL and EXPLICIT holder of the smoking gun while the community members at large are considered INNOCENT UNLESS PROVEN GUILTY, is a MISTAKE that derives from the DOUBLE ERROR of NAMING and AND GRAMMAR based (mis)understanding of LOCAL AUTHORING.

 * * * * * * END OF PREFACE * * * * * *

In Modern physics understanding, as in the strands-in-the-web and the condensations of the energy-charged plenum, EVERYTHING IS RELATED (interconnected and interdependent) in which case RESTORATIVE JUSTICE MAKES SENSE where the cause of violence is understood as relational dissonance and the remedy is the restoring of relational harmony, … and NOT as in WESTERN CULTURE where the notion of people as INDEPENDENT BEINGS insulated by ABSOLUTE EMPTY AND INFINITE SPACE leads to the MISUNDERSTANDING of VIOLENCE in terms of LOCAL and EXPLICIT AUTHORING when the reality is those manifesting as the AUTHORS of VIOLENCE are in reality CONDUITS for the VENTING of TENSIONS that build with in the community relational matrix, in which case WESTERN CULTURE PURIFICATIONIST JUSTICE is a MISTAKE and RESTORATIVE JUSTICE is what is needed.

WESTERN CULTURE LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING in general, because it is SIMPLE BINARY LOGIC based, is TOO SIMPLE to capture WAVE-FIELD REALITY.  By contrast, the “QUANTUM” BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM capable LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING scheme of MODERN PHYSICS, indigenous aboriginals, Taoists/Buddhists and Advaita Vedanta adherents is capable of ANDROGYNOUS LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING whas associates with , , the two conjugates together capturing the TRANSFORMING OF THE LANDSCAPE which  DEVELOPING and

Where this NOTE is ‘going to’, after setting the stage with a comparison of WESTERN CULTURE philosophy versus INDIGENOUS ABORIGINAL and EASTERN CULTURE philosophy, is to the philosophy of Gregory Franklin whereby he has developed a way of living which BRIDGES between these TWO philosophical understandings of reality.

BACKGROUND:

Much has been written about the REALITY that we are included in a WAVE-FIELD WORLD, but because we WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS have chosen to develop a LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING scheme that is based on SIMPLE BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC OF THE “EXCLUDED MEDIUM”, we are DIMINISHING OUR “AWARENESS” (the AWARENESS that is shaped by LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATIONS) because the world we actually live in, the world of our SENSE EXPERIENCE of inclusion within it, as linguistically conceptualized through MODERN PHYSICS, Taoism/Buddhism and Advaita Vedanta, is a LESS SIMPLE WORLD that demands LESS SIMPLE LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING (than that which is grounded in SIMPLE BINARY EITHER/OR LOGICOF THE EXCLUDED MEDIUM) that is capable of supporting LESS SIMPLE BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM, which can be called QUANTUM BOTH/AND LOGIC to distinguish it from the SIMPLE but COMMON (in WESTERN CULTURE) BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC.

(QUANTUM) BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM describes the world in the MODERN PHYSICS terms of an all-including ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM within which there are CONDENSATIONS so that we have a relationship akin to WHORLINGS (condensations) IN FLOWING (containing energized flow) where the WHORLINGS are only visually distinguishable flow-features or APPEARANCE based, thus the WHORLING is BOTH itself AND the flowing in which case we CANNOT PHYSICALLY separate the WHORLING from the FLOWING so that the only possible MOVEMENT is TRANSFORMATION because EVERYTHING IS IN FLUX.

(BINARY) EITHER/OR LOGIC OF THE EXCLUDED MEDIUM describes the world in the NEWTONIAN PHYSICS terms of an ABSOLUTE EMPTY AND INFINITE SPACE, LOCALLY POPULATED BY MATERIAL OBJECTS, as gives rise to a PSEUDO-REALITY whererein there is EITHER ABSOLUTE EMPTY SPACE OR ABSOLUTE MATERIAL PRESENCE (BEING).  Here we PSYCHOLOGICALLY and LINGUISTICALLY split the WHORLINGS apart from FLOWING using what Nietzsche calls ‘the DOUBLE ERROR of NAMING and GRAMMAR’.  For example, when we say ‘the WHORLING IS GROWING LARGER’, we are using the DOUBLE ERROR of NAMING and GRAMMAR to notionally (psychologically) endow the WHORLING with “ITS OWN POWERS OF LOCAL AUTHORING of ACTIONS AND DEVELOPMENT” as if within an ABSOLUTE EMPTY AND INFINITE SPACE.  The Rudyard Kipling poem “EAST IS EAST AND WEST IS WEST AND NEVER THE TWAIN SHALL MEET” stems from this just described difference in LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING the world of our sense-experience; i.e. the WESTERN CULTURE NEWTONIAN LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING based on BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC OF THE EXCLUDED MEDIUM (e.g. THE TOWN IS GROWING, DEVELOPING and PRODUCING goods as if within an ABSOLUTE EMPTY SPACE) and the MODERN PHYSICS, INDIGENOUS ABORIGINAL, Taoist/Buddhist and Advaita Vedanta LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING based on QUANTUM BOTH/AND LOGIC (e.g. “THERE IS TOWNING IN THE TRANSFORMING PLENUM” where the TOWNING is a condensed feature within the TRANSFORMING ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM”).

* * *

OUR AWARENESS of the world, which is conditioned by our differing schemes for LINGUISTICALLY CONCEPTUALIZING the world of our SENSE-EXPERIENCE of INCLUSION therein, … is influenced (shaped) by the LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SCHEME we use, and we WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS have historically opted for a SIMPLE, BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING (e.g. “THE TOWN IS GROWING, DEVELOPING, and PRODUCING goods” … FULL STOP), whereas MODERN PHYSICS, INDIGENOUS ABORIGINALS, TAOISTS/BUDDHISTS and ADVAITA VEDANTA ADHERENTS all employ a LESS SIMPLE LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SCHEME which is “QUANTUM” BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM based (e.g. “THERE IS TOWNING IN THE TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE”).  In this LESS SIMPLE QUANTUM BOTH/AND CONCEPTUALIZATION, we are reporting on the NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT TRANSFORMING RELATIONAL CONTINUUM which INCLUDES the CONDENSATION, whereas, in the SIMPLE BINARY LOGIC CONCEPTUALIZATION, we report on notional LOCAL and EXPLICIT FORMS (which are BINARY LOGIC based LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATIONS.

In this BINARY LOGIC based CONCEPTUALIZATION, there is FRAGMENTATION and OBSCURANTISM since the notion of ABSOLUTE EMPTY SPACE serves as an INSULATOR that keeps separate and independent, the NAMING-INSTANTIATED “MATERIAL OBJECTS” insulated by EMPTY SPACE.  This is a manifesting of the DIFFERENTIATING (FRAGMENTING) POWER OF OUR SIMPLE BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC OF THE EXCLUDED MEDIUM based LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATION.

The LOCAL and EXPLICIT FRAGMENTS produced by DIFFERENTIATION (which is a psycho-linguistic operation triggered by the DOUBLE ERROR of NAMING and GRAMMAR) sets up the notion of the LOCAL AUTHOR of actions and development, as in the example THE TOWN IS GROWING.  This SIMPLE BINARY LOGIC based ABSTRACTION substitutes the SIMPLE LOCAL and EXPLICIT for the LESS SIMPLE NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT flow-field dynamic aka the TRANSFORMING RELATIONAL CONTINUUM wherein FIGURE (local and explicit) and GROUND (nonlocal and implicit) ARE ONLY ONE as in ‘THERE IS TOWNING IN THE TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE’.

Our WESTERN CULTURE BINARY LOGIC based LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SCHEME FRAGMENTS into LOCAL and EXPLICIT objects, the RELATIONAL CONTINUUM of the QUANTUM BOTH/AND LOGIC OF THE INCLUDING MEDIUM (the TRANSFORMING RELATIONAL CONTINUUM aka ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM aka WAVE-FIELD) which is UNBOUNDED in SPACETIME and which is the NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT source of ‘MATERIAL’ CONDENSATIONS.

PSYCHOLOGICAL ALERT:

As WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS, we have learned a LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SCHEME that is SIMPLE EITHER/OR BINARY LOGIC based that conditions our PSYCHE very differently than LESS SIMPLE QUANTUM BOTH/AND LOGIC.  Investigators of this difference such as Lev Vygotsky (the ‘Father of Russian Psychology) have shown that in the early SHAPING PERIOD of CHILDHOOD LEARNING, WESTERN CULTURE CHILDREN are being taught to think in SIMPLE one-sided BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC based terms where we DROP OUT the FEMALE ACCOMMODATING/ENABLING conjugate which is plays an essential, foundational role if fullblown, WAVE-FIELD capable LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING.  While SIMPLE BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC OF THE EXCLUDED MEDIUM supports LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATIONS such as ‘the TOWN is GROWING, DEVELOPING and PRODUCING goods’, … which gives us a PICTURE based on LOCAL, EXPLICIT MATERIAL THINGS and their ACTIONS and INTERACTIONS, the LESS SIMPLE QUANTUM BOTH/AND LOGIC OF THE INCLUDING MEDIUM supports LESS SIMPLE LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATIONS such as ‘there is TOWNING in the TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE’ which reminds us of our SENSE-EXPERIENCE INFORMED AWARENESS of our INCLUSION in the all-including TRANSFORMING RELATIONAL CONTINUUM.

While this “QUANTUM” BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM makes us ONE WITH EVERYTHING in that we and all material forms are understood as CONDENSATIONS of the all-including ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM aka WAVE-FIELD, and while this is accessible in the LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING APPROACHES of MODERN PHYSICS, indigenous aboriginals, Taoists/Buddhists and Advaita Vedanta adherents, … IT IS NOT ACCESSIBLE through BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC of the EXCLUDED MEDIUM based LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATIONS.

The above gives the BACKGROUND to the following remarks concerning Gregory Franklin’s informative discussion of the relationship between LEISURE and LABOUR, which ties to the philosophical investigations of Lev Vygotsky who uses the terms SPONTANEOUS and SCIENTIFIC where Gregory uses LEISURE and LABOUR.  Vygotsky breaks with out WESTERN CULTURE STANDARD use of BINARY LOGIC which SPLITS INTO TWO SEPARATE ENTITIES, the SPONTANEOUS and the SCIENTIFIC.  The important understanding that Vygotsky brings out is that the SPONTANEOUS and SCIENTIFIC are CONJUGATE ASPECTS of the ONE ANDROGYNOUS (WAVE-FIELD) DYNAMIC; i.e. the LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATION “THERE IS TOWNING IN THE TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE” comprehends the INCLUSION of the former (TOWNING) in the latter (TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE)

WE WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS HAVE NOT LISTENED TO VYGOTSKY who is saying that in order to understand the REAL WORLD OF OUR SENSE EXPERIENCE we must avoid using language that uses BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC based LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING BECAUSE IT CHOPS EVERYTHING UP FOR OUR INTELLECTUAL CONCEPTUALIZATION based understanding.  Meanwhile, QUANTUM BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM based CONCEPTUALIZING preserves the INTERCONNECTNESS and INTERDEPENDENCE of all material forms as CONDENSATIONS of the all-including wave-field as supported by our sense-experience whereby we would rightly say “There is TOWNING IN THE TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE” since our “AWARENESS” is supporting our understanding of the world as a CONTINUUM.

As Vygotsky pointed out, Piaget pulled this deceptive trick (of substituting too-simple BINARY LOGIC where less simple QUANTUM LOGIC was needed) in his treatment of EDUCATION by first SPLITTING THE ANDROGYNOUS COMBINATION of SPONTANEOUS and SCIENTIFIC INTO TWO PIECES AND THEN TOSSING OUT THE SPONTANEOUS which he (Piaget) felt was UNNECESSARY.  Meanwhile THERE ARE NO ‘TWO PIECES’ because as Vygotsky points out, what we have here is the ANDROGYNOUS WAVE-FIELD structure; “Though fundamentally different in nature, the development of scientific and spontaneous concepts represents two sides of the same concept formation”

“Our disagreement with Piaget centers on one point only, but an important point. He assumes that development and instruction are entirely separate, incommensurate processes, that the function of instruction is merely to introduce adult ways of thinking, which conflict with the child’s own and eventually supplant them. Such a supposition stems from the old psychological tradition of separating the structural from the functional aspects of development.” –Vygotsky

CHECK OUT THE CORRESPONDENCE BETWEEN VYGOTSKY’S “SCIENTIFIC” and “SPONTANEOUS” vis a vis GREGORY’S “LABOUR” and “LEISURE” in reading Gregory’s following comment, recalling that Vygotsky was proposing a new way of understanding LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATIONS that is dealing with the same complexities that Gregory is dealing with.

Gregory Franklin’s, … THE PROCESS:

“If you really want something, it happens.   You know, that’s how … it becomes a little bit more of a philosophical thing at this point, what you’re asking, it’s a state of mind, or how we think and how we act and react towards that…so I won’t say a trick, I think it’s very important to lead my life this way, but this is part of it and it’s … i’m struggling for the right words… In order to make something like this work, we can’t have a distinction between labour and leisure.  At some point there has to be a balance.  So when we think of labour and we think of leisure, we think of opposites, they’re opposites, we work hard and then we play and the two shall never mix, you know its that sort of opposite stuff that we look at, …and  its very normal, that’s how our cultures are, but at some point, those two opposites, they need to come together.  They need to and its state of mind, they need to come together so that they are ONE.  So they are no longer, … those words no longer apply, leisure or labour and leisure…. those words don’t apply, play, work, they don’t apply because they have joined and it’s all one, its the same thing.  It’s a balance, it’s a flow that works within, and its a flow so if there’s too much labour, if it’s out of balance and there’s a bit too much labour and not enough leisure, it becomes stressful and if there’s too much leisure and not enough labour, it becomes boring, so when that balance, when that ‘flow’, flows between the two, I’m doing leisure and labour exactly at the same time. And then its no longer a task, you’re having ‘PRODUCTIVE FUN (moderator comment “I love that term. productive fun”). That’s a simplistic term because those other words don’t exist any more because you’ve created a balance of both of them together, and so for me it was fairly easy at this point to do that, it just came naturally, and I won’t say completely naturally, I’ve had the help of a few counsellors and what not, that helped me through some of this or just lay out some ideas and so it works very very well.   And that’s still how I live my day right now, every day, it’s not leisure and its not leisure and its not labour, its whatever that’s in between, so, its the closest a person can come to, we hear this lots in all kinds of contexts but its the closest a person can come to ‘being present’.  I live completely in the now.  And I can’t speak for anyone else, I know it works very very well for me.

So then it no longer becomes when I awake at 4:30 in the morning, I ‘m excited to get up.  Why are you excited to get up, because I’m going to lay another two or three or four two-hundred-pound stones.  This is exciting, this is absolute fun and you can look at the stones and that’s one of the things that limestone is all about, its all organic so limestone is just compressed sea-life whether its animal life or fossils of plant life flora fauna.  Its just compressed so we can take a magnifying glass and look at this stuff and it’s all solid fossils, so I’m working with stuff that was alive 350 million years ago.  I’m working with it and its just exciting and it excites me that oh!  I put these two stones down and it’s like, they came from a quarry and this is how its transformed and its just a transformation of energy, it’s all it is, and I’m the guide, I just guide it, I don’t do anything else other than guide it and I just find the greatest pleasure in that.  It just pleases me to no end.  There’s so many different elements to it but it just makes me very, very happy.”

* * * * *

These words of Gregory’s are a reminder of our (“OUR” meaning “US WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS”) way of formulating and understanding using OUR PARTICULAR BRAND OF LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATIONS.  For indigenous aboriginals and other USERS OF LESS SIMPLE but REALITISTIC FLOW-BASED LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SCHEMES, there is no complex path such as that which we WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS have formulated DUE TO OUR GIVING A FOUNDATIONAL ROLE TO THE ABSTRACT NOTION OF “MATERIAL BEING”.  I.E. THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS ‘MATERIAL BEING’ IN THE FLOW-BASED LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATIONS of MODERN PHYSICS< INDIGENOUS ABORIGINALS, TAOISTS/BUDDHISTS and ADVAITA VEDANTA ADHERENTS, all of whom preserve, IN THEIR LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATIONS, the FLUID NATURE of the all-including TRANSFORMING ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM in which material forms are CONDENSATIONS so that EVERYTHING IS RELATED as CONDENSATIONS within the ONE, ALL-INCLUDING TRANSFORMING PLENUM; i.e. everything (which means all CONDENSATIONS of the ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM are INTERCONNECTED and INTERDEPENDENT.

(Gregory’s reminder of the innate INTERDEPENDENCE of LABOUR AND LEISURE is a reminder of the WAVE-FIELD STRUCTURE of our world, wherein the LIVING FORMS are CONDENSATIONS of the ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM as requires “QUANTUM” both/and logic of the INCLUDING MEDIUM as describes material forms such as ourselves, as CONDENSATIONS of the ALL-INCLUDING ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM in which case WE ARE ONE WITH EVERYTHING.  This is a return to the Wisdom of Heraclitus who argued against .)

All things come into being through opposition and all are in flux like a river” —Heraclitus

Hodos ano kato (ὁδὸς ἄνω κάτω), “the upward-downward path.” are simultaneous opposites, the source of “hidden harmony”. There is a harmony in the bending back (παλίντροπος palintropos) as in the case of the bow and the lyre.

Users of LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING schemes which support the basic reality of material forms as CONDENSATIONS of the all-including ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM never have to manage, in their linguistic conceptualizing, the PROBLEM of abstract INDEPENDENT MATERIAL OBJECTS such as ‘THE TOWN’ which in the relational LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATION schemes of MODERN PHYSICS and INDIGENOUS ABORIGINALS are TOWNINGS in the TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE wherein EVERYTHING IS IN THE FLUX OF THE ALL-INCLUDING, TRANSFORMING CONTINUUM, in which case IT MAKES NO SENSE TO CRAFT A LANGUAGE THAT IMPUTES LOCAL AUTHORING OF ACTIONS AND DEVELOPMENTS TO NOTIONAL ‘INDEPENDENT OBJECTS’ using what Nietzsche calls THE DOUBLE ERROR OF NAMING AND GRAMMAR.  In this DOUBLE ERROR ABSTRACTION of WESTERN CULTURE LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATION, we use NAMING to INVENT a notional LOCAL MATERIAL BEING, and we conflate this with GRAMMAR to impute to the NOTIONAL “INDEPENDENT MATERIAL BEING” “ITS OWN POWERS OF LOCAL AUTHORING, DEVELOPMENT and PRODUCTION of goods”.  This BEING based PSEUDO REALITY is what we WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS are using as OUR OPERATIVE REALITY, which is the SOURCE OF FRAGMENTATION and OBSCURANTISM.

THAT IS THE SOURCE OF PSYCHOLOGICAL FRAGMENTATION BY WAY OF LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATIONS WHICH ARE TOO SIMPLE AND ARE NOT SUPPORTED BY OUR SENSE-EXPERIENCE; e.g. TOWNS DO NOT GROW and all such PROPOSITIONS as ‘THE TOWN IS GROWING’ are subject to Goedel’s Theorem of the INCOMPLETENESS of all FINITE LOGICAL PROPOSITIONS, and our WESTERN CULTURE LOGICAL PROPOSITIONS are INCOMPLETE because, for example, when we speak of the GROWTH OF THE TOWN, THAT IS NOT SUPPORTED BY OUR SENSE-EXPERIENCE REALITY wherein there is ALWAYS a FEMALE ACCOMMODATING/ENABLING in conjugate relation such as the SHRINKING OF WILDERNESS that comes together with THE GROWTH OF THE TOWN, in which case, while IT IS LOGICALLY TRUE to say “THE TOWN IS GROWING”, it is NOT “REAL” in a SENSE-EXPERIENCE CONFIRMABLE context because there can be no “GROWING OF THE TOWN” without CONJUGATE SHRINKING OF THE WILDERNESS (adjacent areas).

* * * *

WESTERN CULTURE has adopted a LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SCHEME that DROPS OUT the FEMALE ACCOMMODATING/ENABLING CONJUGATE which corresponds to the NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT PLENUM wherein material CONDENSATIONS that are LOCAL and EXPLICIT are included.  MODERN PHYSICS, Indigenous aboriginals, Taoists/Buddhists and Advaita Vedanta adherents use a LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SCHEME that NOT ONLY INCLUDES the FEMALE ACCOMMODATING/ENABLING CONJUGATE, but acknowledges its NATURAL PRIMACY over the MALE ASSERTING/ACTUALIZING CONJUGATE which, as with CONDENSATIONS of the WAVE-FIELD, is only APPEARANCE in the manner of a WHORLING in FLOWING; i.e. the WHORLING is NOT a LOCAL THING-IN-ITSELF with ITS OWN POWERS OF AUTHORING ACTIONS AND DEVELOPMENTS, the WHORLING is the APPEARANCE of FLOWING.  We WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS NOT ONLY MAKE THE MISTAKE OF IMPUTING LOCAL AUTHORING POWER FO THE WHORLING, WE SUPPORT TWO OPPOSITE VERSIONS, A MALE VERSION in which the WHORLING IS STIRRING UP THE FLOWING and a FEMALE VERSION in which the FLOWING is STIRRING UP THE WHORLING.  What is actually going on is TRANSFORMATION induced within the ALL-INCLUDING ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM, which involves NO LOCAL AUTHORING, … NOT MALE ASSERTING/ACTUALIZING LOCAL AUTHORING and NOT FEMALE ACCOMMODATING/ENABLING LOCAL AUTHORING; i.e. the PHYSICAL REALITY is that ‘AUTHORING’ comes in the form of TRANSFORMATION which is NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT.

* * * * * *

CONSIDER WHAT BINARY LOGIC HAS BEEN DOING TO OUR WESTERN CULTURE PSYCHE.

Because the PRIMARY dynamics of our ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM are TRANSFORMATION where EVERYTHING IS IN FLUX including ourselves, we may well ask how we WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS came up with a LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SCHEME that DISTRACTS US BY CONJURING UP SCENARIOS DEPICTING ‘WHAT IS GOING ON OUT THERE” as if we are NOT INCLUDED IN THE WORLD WE ARE LOOKING OUT AT.   This is NOT LIKE indigenous aboriginals who have very forcefully pointed out that we all share inclusion in an INTERCONNECTED and INTERDEPENDENT “WEB-OF-LIFE” such that WHAT WE DO TO THE WEB, WE DO TO OURSELVES, a relational structure that is SUPPORTED BY MODERN PHYSICS as well as being the understanding of indigenous aboriginals, Taoists/Buddhists and Advaita Vedanta adherents.

BUT AS NIETZSCHE HAS POINTED OUT, WE HAVE BUILT INTO OUR WESTERN CULTURE LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SCHEME, THE ERRONEOUS NOTION of “LOCAL AUTHORING” using the DOUBLE ERROR of NAMING and GRAMMAR as in “the PIONEERS CONSTRUCTED A VILLAGE that includes HOUSING for HUNDREDS of PEOPLE”.

The understanding conveyed in older versions of even WESTERN CULTURE SOCIAL COLLECTIVES was that WE ARE INCLUDED IN SOMETHING GREATER THAN OURSELVES; e.g. “TO EVERYTHING THERE IS A SEASON AND A TIME TO EVERY PURPOSE” which reaffirms our natural sense of INCLUSION in SOMETHING GREATER THAN OURSELVES in which case LOCAL AUTHORING HAS NO REAL MEANING, as is the understanding of MODERN PHYSICS, indigenous aboriginals, Taoists/Buddhists and Advaita Vedanta.

WHAT’S THIS GOT TO DO WITH LABOUR AND LEISURE?  WESTERN CULTURE INTERPRETATIONS OF WORK and REST are strongly influenced by belief systems such as the Judaic, Christian and Islamic beliefs taken from Biblical writings, that we were NOT INCLUDED IN THE WHOLE SCHEME OF THINGS as suggested by MODERN PHYSICS and so conceived in indigenous aboriginal, Taoist/Buddhist and Advaita Vedanta cultures, but were SPECIAL AND SPLIT OUT OF THE REST OF CREATION so that instead of understanding ourselves as INCLUDED in the TRANSFORMING UNUM, we were separate and in an ineractive relation;

Genesis 1:28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

LABOUR and LEISURE are suggested as being separate since man is suggested as being separate and it is only when we acknowledge our inclusion that LABOUR and LEISURE ARE RESOLVED WITHIN THE ALL-INCLUDING “TRANSFORMATION” and while our sense-experience is informing us of such inclusion whereupon it makes sense to co-cultivate HARMONY within it, our BINARY LOGIC influenced INTELLECT has us WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS opting for the DOMINION OVER things.

The ALTERNATIVE is suggested by MODERN PHYSICS and this has been the understanding of indigenous aboriginals, Taoists/Buddhists and Advaita Vedanta;

This we know, the earth does not belong to man, man belongs to the earth. This we know. All things are connected like the blood which unites one family. All things are connected. Whatever befalls the earth, befalls the sons of the earth. Man did not weave the web of life, he is merely a strand in it. Whatever he does to the web, he does to himself.”— “Chief Seattle”

LABOUR and LEISURE are FLIP SIDES of the ONE DYNAMIC of TRANSFORMATION.  We have the choice of different approaches that can be seen in differentiating between Robinson Crusoe and Suzanne de la Pacifique

This point of letting the identity of the “performer” flex to “performing” to allow the understanding of individual-collective non-duality as the prevailing reality is key.  It has come up in research into “exceptionally performing teams”.  It comes up in Ackoff’s “every system is included in a relational suprasystem”.  It comes up in contrasting the narratives “Robinson Crusoe” and “Suzanne de la Pacifique”.  In all of these cases there is a question as to whether it is appropriate to describe the primary animating agency as coming from ‘inhabitant’ (LABOUR) or ‘habitat’ (LEISURE).  The evidence from my own life experience and from those of many others, is that “nonlocal, implicit epigenetic influence inductively actualizes local, explicit genetic expression’.   The nonlocal, implicit ensemble performance inductively actualizes, orchestrates and shapes the local, explicit solo performance.  The fertile valley trains the farmer like the fertile crowd trains the performer.  The avalanche of produce; aka ‘the harvest’,  is not ‘caused’ by the farmer but induced by the ambient accommodating/enabling, and neither is the avalanche of laughter ‘caused’ by the comedic performer but by nervous potentials whose liberation is triggered by the comedic performer.

Hodos ano kato (ὁδὸς ἄνω κάτω), “the upward-downward path.” are simultaneous opposites, the source of “hidden harmony”. There is a harmony in the bending back (παλίντροπος palintropos) as in the case of the bow and the lyre.

BECOMING AWARE OF OUR LIVING IN A WAVE-FIELD WORLD

[Gregory:]   “I’m doing labour and leisure exactly at the same time.”

As Mahavits, we can understand and support this approach but may be unable to ‘walk the talk’ as Atmavits.  This is the challenge of being WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS in a WAVE-FIELD WORLD where we have been taught to understand reality through the simplifying lenses of BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC OF THE EXCLUDED MEDIUM in which case the less simple QUANTUM BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM will be OBSCURED in the manner that ‘There is TOWNING IN THE TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE’ is OBSCURED once we say ‘the TOWN IS GROWING’ which is a one-sided MALE ASSERTING/ACTUALIZING because it SIMPLIFIES the implied REALITY by imputing ABSOLUTE EMPTY SPACE as the CONTAINER for the GROWTH of the TOWN.  In sense-experience reality, there can be NO GROWTH of the TOWN without CONJUGATE SHRINKING of the WILDERNESS, these two together constituting TRANSFORMATION.

There is only ONE REALITY in which case, by speaking in the SIMPLE terms that ‘the TOWN is GROWING’ we have FIXED REALITY within a BINARY LOGIC based PSEUDO-WORLD wherein SPACE is an ABSOLUTE EMPTY CONTAINER within which the GROWING of material forms such as the TOWN can occur.   While this may satisfy our SIMPLE BINARY LOGIC based communications need associated with our focus on ‘the TOWN’ as if it were an INDEPENDENT THING-IN-ITSELF which ECLIPSES the less simple ANDROGYNOUS [simultaneous opposites based] understanding wherein we are aware of the CONJUGATE SHRINKING OF THE WILDERNESS that is conjugate with the GROWTH of the TOWN wherein the overall dynamic is the TRANSFORMING of the landscape which is what our sense-experience is informing us while our INTELLECTUAL LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING can “GET BY” with “GROWTH OF THE TOWN” without mention of ACCOMMODATING/ENABLING provided by the SHRINKING of the WILDERNESS in which case we acknowledge that what is REALLY GOING on is TRANSFORMATION of the LANDSCAPE.

SO WESTERN CULTURE has more than one issue as expressed by Nietzsche as the DOUBLE ERROR of NAMING and GRAMMAR where we BANISH the FEMALE ACCOMMODATING/ENABLING and GO WITH ONLY THE MALE ASSERTING/ACTUALIZING (giving rise to the DEA ABSCONDITA or GODDESS IN HIDING).  This DROP OUT of the FEMALE ACCOMMODATING/ENABLING is CHRONIC in WESTERN CULTURE LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING;  Here we may compare LABOUR and LEISURE to SCIENTIFIC and SPONTANEOUS and we can see that WESTERN CULTURE IS IN THE HABIT of DROPPING OUT the FEMALE ACCOMMODATING/ENABLING CONJUGATE (the SPONTANEOUS) and retaining ONLY the SCIENTIFIC.  PROBLEM!  THE SPONTANEOUS AND SCIENTIFIC ARE NOT TWO SEPARATE THINGS, THEY ARE CONJUGATE ASPECTS OF ONE ANDROGYNOUS PROCESS.  In the same VEIN, LEISURE and LABOUR ARE NOT TWO SEPARATE THINGS, but are CONJUGATE ASPECTS of ONE ANDROGYNOUS DYNAMIC. 

“Though fundamentally different in nature, the development of scientific and spontaneous concepts represents two sides of the same concept formation”

“Our disagreement with Piaget centers on one point only, but an important point. He assumes that development and instruction are entirely separate, incommensurate processes, that the function of instruction is merely to introduce adult ways of thinking, which conflict with the child’s own and eventually supplant them. Such a supposition stems from the old psychological tradition of separating the structural from the functional aspects of development.” –Vygotsky

In Gregory’s experience; “I’m doing labour and leisure exactly at the same time.”   We may acknowledge the VALUE in doing likewise (the union of opposites), however, we may find ourselves, at least initially, in the MAHAVIT phase where we understand the huge benefits and can talk about them and what we must do to get them, but may not be able to easily operationalize as would put us into ATMAVIT phase.  I would say it’s akin to making this switch starting from the advice to ASSERT and impose one’s one’s own WILL; i.e. to

… have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.  —GENESIS

to the awareness of INCLUSION in something greater than ourselves.

This we know, the earth does not belong to man, man belongs to the earth. This we know. All things are connected like the blood which unites one family. All things are connected. Whatever befalls the earth, befalls the sons of the earth. Man did not weave the web of life, he is merely a strand in it. Whatever he does to the web, he does to himself.”— “Chief Seattle”

CONCLUDING OBSERVATIONS:

NOW FOR WHAT WE (WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS) DON’T USUALLY TALK ABOUT (THE ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM) WHICH IS “BLOCKING” ACCESS TO UNDERSTANDING THAT THERE IS SPECIAL VALUE IN “doing labour and leisure exactly at the same time.”

Our WESTERN CULTURE LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SCHEME , BECAUSE IT (A) uses language that SPLITS APART INTO TWO SEPARATE PIECES, THE “two sides of the same concept formation”  has us talking about THINGS THAT DO NOT EXIST ON THEIR OWN, such as LABOUR and LEISURE, because they ONLY EXIST “AS TWO SIDES OF THE SAME CONCEPT FORMATION”. and (B) DROPPING OUT “ONE HALF” of something that DOES NOT EXIST IN TWO PARTS, CREATES SOMETHING NEW AND DIFFERENT rather than ‘EXTRACTING PART OF THAT WHICH ALREADY EXISTS’.  

This is VYGOTSKY’S CRITICISM OF PIAGET (and thus of WESTERN CULTURE LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING IN GENERAL, and I BRING THIS UP BECAUSE IT IMPOSES A MENTAL BLOCK ON WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS WHICH SHUTS DOWN OUR COGNITIVE ACCESS TO THE ANDROGYNOUS (WAVE-FIELD) STRUCTURE OF OUR REALITY.  If our understanding is that MALE ASSERTING/ACTUALIZING and FEMALE ACCOMMODATING/ENABLING ARE TWO SEPARATE AND INDEPENDENT THINGS rather than, as VYGOTSKY SAYS,“two sides of the same concept formation” as in the PEAK and TROUGH of the WAVE which are mutually defining and DO NOT EXIST AS SEPARATE ENTITIES; i.e. while our WESTERN CULTURE LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SCHEME is capable of creating the impression that a massive PEAK is forming and about to BREAK and SMASH the HULL of the beached boat, this is all LOCAL and EXPLICIT TALK which fails to mention the NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT (relational) reality without which the LOCAL and EXPLICIT WOULD NOT EXIST.  In other words, the LOCAL and EXPLICIT IS NOT REAL, IT IS “APPEARANCE” or “SCHAUMKOMMEN” in Schroedinger’s language.  Indigenous aboriginals, Taoists/Buddhists and Advaita Vedanta adherents understand this, that the LOCAL and EXPLICIT is only APPEARANCE which means that while ‘EASTERN’ FLOW-based LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING CORRECTLY captures the natural primacy of the NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT as requires BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM, where the TOWNING is BOTH itself AND the TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE it is included in.

WESTERN’ BEING-based LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING INFUSES A BACKDROP OF EMPTY SPACE to FRAME THE BEING based OBJECT (the TOWN), ERRONEOUSLY PROMOTING TO A FALSE PRIMACY, the LOCAL and EXPLICIT which is SIMPLER than the NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT in that the LOCAL and EXPLICIT only requires EITHER/OR LOGIC of the EXCLUDED MEDIUM as in LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATIONS such as ‘the TOWN is GROWING’ .  HERE, there is NO MENTION of the conjugate SHRINKING of WILDERNESS in which case there is the implicit assumption, in this BINARY LOGIC based form of LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING, of an EMPTY CONTAINING SPACE in which ‘the TOWN IS GROWING’.  OUR SENSE-EXPERIENCE KNOWS THIS SUCH ONE-SIDED MALE ASSERTING/ACTUALIZING ONLY CONCEPTUALIZING IS “WRONG” in the same sense as Goedel’s Theorem of INCOMPLETENESS of all finite LOGICAL PROPOSITIONS.  The LOGICAL PROPOSITION ‘THE TOWN IS GROWING’, while LOGICALLY TRUE, fails to acknowledge the conjugate SHRINKING OF WILDERNESS in which case that POSITIVE PROPOSITION is INCOMPLETE.

MOST OF WHAT WE WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS SAY WHEN WE ARE SPEAKING THE TRUTH IS INCOMPLETE DUE TO THE WESTERN CULTURE DROP-OUT OF THE FEMALE ACCOMMODATING/ENABLING CONJUGATE by way of  DIFFERENTIATION as in mathematics which extracts ONLY THE LOCAL EXPLICIT DETAIL from the TRANSFORMING RELATIONAL CONTINUUM, leaving behind the NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT GROUNDING.  For example, to speak of the TOWN THAT IS GROWING FAILS TO ACKNOWLEGE THE CONJUGATE SHRINKING OF WILDERNESS WHICH IS PART OF OUR SENSE-EXPERIENCE AFFIRMED REALITY.  This means that ‘THE GROWTH OF THE TOWN’, WHILE VERIFIABLY TRUE, IS NOT SOMETHING REAL because as the fourleggeds and winged and crawly one’s know, CAN ONLY HAPPEN TOGETHER WITH THE CONJUGATE SHRINKING OF WILDERNESS.  This exposes the fact that WE WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS are using LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING THAT SHARES UNREAL TRUTHS, and what is being DROPPED OUT as far as REALITY goes is the FEMALE ACCOMMODATING/ENABLING conjugate such as the SHRINKING of WILDERNESS that is conjugate with the GROWTH of the TOWN.  The GROWTH of the TOWN is only the MALE ASSERTING/ACTUALIZING conjugate which deals only with the LOCAL and EXPLICIT, and which IGNORES the reality of the NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT SHRINKING of the WILDERNESS.   

The WESTERN CULTURE LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SCHEME THROWS THE BABY OUT WITH THE BATHWATER IN THAT THE NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT IS THE FOUNDATIONAL UNDERSTANDING THAT GIVES MEANING TO THE LOCAL AND EXPLICIT; TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE gives meaning to the GROWTH OF THE TOWN.  LET’S MAKE NO MISTAKE; WHAT IS REALLY GOING ON (as affirmed by our sense-experience) IS TRANSFORMING OF THE LANDSCAPE, “NOT” THE GROWTH OF THE TOWN which is a BINARY LOGIC SIMPLIFICATION BASED LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATION, that employs a DOUBLE ERROR of NAMING and GRAMMAR to support the FRAGMENTING (in our linguistic conceptualizing scheme) of the TRANSFORMING CONTINUUM which is NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT according to our SENSE-EXPERIENCE.  The DOUBLE ERROR is describing the process of DIFFERENTIATING as in reducing the TOWNING in the TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE which is A (QUANTUM) BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM STRUCTURE to “the TOWN that is GROWING, DEVELOPING and PRODUCING goods” which is ANBINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC of the EXCLUDED MEDIUM STRUCTURE.

Our judgement has us conclude that every change must have an author”;–but this conclusion is already mythology: it separates that which effects from the effecting. If I say “lightning flashes,” I have posited the flash once as an activity and a second time as a subject, and thus added to the event a being that is not one with the event but is rather fixed, “is” and does not “become.”–To regard an event as an “effecting,” and this as being, that is the double error, or interpretation, of which we are guilty.” – Nietzsche, ‘Will to Power’, 531

This DOUBLE ERROR of NAMING and GRAMMAR based “FRAGMENTATION OF REALITY” (that “FRAGMENTATION of REALITY” is an oxymoron since REALITY is a TRANSFORMING CONTINUUM and ‘our LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATION is no longer REALITY once we use it to FRAGMENT the TRANSFORMING CONTINUUM.

DAMAGE CONTROL!

HOW MANY OTHER SCREW UPS HAVE WE PLANTED IN OUR LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SCHEME TO SCREW UP OUR WESTERN CULTURE PSYCHE?

I AM ADDRESSING THIS QUESTION BECAUSE OF THE GREAT APPEAL OF THE HARMONIOUS OUTCOMES THAT COME WITH THE RECOGNITION AND CULTIVATING OF SOCIAL DYNAMICS CONSISTENT WITH; Though fundamentally different in nature, the development of scientific [labour] and spontaneous [leisure] concepts represents two sides of the same concept formation” .

There is EVERY EVIDENCE that WE WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS are not SIMPLY BEING HELD UP FROM ACCESSING the BENEFITS of GETTING IN TUNE with this understanding by our IGNORANCE of it; i.e. the fourleggeds and winged and crawly ones have NOT FALLEN INTO THE TRAP that we WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS have of DROPPING OUT, FOR SIMPLICITY SAKE, acknowledgement of the FEMALE ACCOMMODATING/ENABLING CONJUGATE, and for example, reducing ‘THERE IS TOWNING IN THE TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE’ to ‘the TOWN IS GROWING, DEVELOPING and PRODUCING goods’ as if in an ABSOLUTE EMPTY AND INFINITE SPACE.

WHAT’S WRONG WITH US WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS?  WHAT’S WRONG is that we have chosen and are using a LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SCHEME based on SIMPLE BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC of the EXCLUDED MEDIUM (the empty space medium) which is MISSING THE FEMALE ACCOMMODATING/ENABLING CONJUGATE that is part of the world of our SENSE-EXPERIENCE.  This is MAJOR OMISSION (the DEA ABSCONDITA, Goddess in Hiding) because the FEMALE ACCOMMODATING ENABLING conjugate is the NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT PLENUM while the MALE ASSERTING/ACTUALIZING that we are using ON ITS OWN, is only the LOCAL and EXPLICIT APPEARANCE of the world of our sense-experience.  The NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM is the physical reality.

For example, indigenous aboriginals DO ACKNOWLEDGE the FULL WAVE-FIELD NATURE of our sense-experience affirmed world wherein everything is INTERCONNECTED and INTERDEPENDENT as with CONDENSATIONS of the all-including ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM, in which case ABORIGINAL JUSTICE is RESTORATIVE since there are no INDEPENDENT AUTHORS OF ACTIONS AND DEVELOPMENTS as in WESTERN CULTURE where such abstraction derives from the DOUBLE ERROR of NAMING and GRAMMAR that imputes the POWER OF LOCAL AUTHORING of actions and development.

The INDIGENOUS ABORIGINAL HEALING CIRCLE IS A RESTORATIVE JUSTICE APPROACH which acknowledges that EVERYTHING RELATED (INTERCONNECTED AND INTERDEPENDENT AS WITH CONDENSATIONS OF THE WAVE-FIELD IN THE WAVE-FIELD).  WESTERM JUSTICE, MEANWHILE, IS PURIFICATIONIST since it uses the DOUBLE ERROR of NAMING and GRAMMAR which implies that there is a LOCAL AUTHOR of ACTIONS and DEVELOPMENT, leading to a REWARDING (for the local authoring of GOOD WORKS) and PUNISHING (for the local authoring of BAD WORKS), all of which is based on “APPEARANCE” that IGNORES the NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT dynamic of TRANSFORMATION where there is NO SUCH THING AS LOCAL AUTHORING.

WESTERN CULTURE PURIFICATIONIST JUSTICE exemplifies the core belief in LOCAL AUTHORING of actions and development which is SIMPLER THAN, and once IN PLACE, SUBSTITUTES FOR AND BLOCKS ACCESS TO UNDERSTANDING IN TERMS of the NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT (relational).  In the WESTERN CULTURE SOCIAL DYNAMIC, the DOUBLE ERROR of NAMING and GRAMMAR based ABSTRACTION OF LOCAL AUTHORING leads to the BINARY LOGIC based system of REWARDING for AUTHORING GOOD ACTIONS and PUNISHING FOR AUTHORING BAD ACTIONS, which is in radical contrast to MODERN PHYSICS UNDERSTANDING which is consistent with INDIGENOUS ABORIGINAL, TAOIST/BUDDHIST and ADVAITA VEDANTA UNDERSTANDING of the PRIMACY OF NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT ACTIONS and DEVELOPMENTS as in the TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE.

EXTRACTING the LOCAL and EXPLICIT from the NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE is, in WESTERN CULTURE, a tool for grappling with the INEFFABILITY of the TRANSFORMING RELATIONAL CONTINUUM by reducing the NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT (flow-based) “TOWNING IN THE TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE” to the LOCAL and EXPLICIT (being-based) “the TOWN is GROWING, DEVELOPING and PRODUCING goods” (as if within an absolute empty and infinite space).

The KEY POINT HERE, BROUGHT OUT BY NIETZSCHE IN HIS “DOUBLE ERROR” QUOTE CITED EARLIER, is that our CAPABILITY of LOCAL and EXPLICIT LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING… COMES AT THE EXPENSE OF DIFFERENTIATION WHICH TOSSES OUT THE NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT RELATIONAL DYNAMIC OF TRANSFORMATION which is the PRIMARY REALITY.  In the process, our LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATIONS are no longer INFORMED “RELATIONALLY” but are GIVEN (by ourselves and our use of the DOUBLE ERROR of NAMING and GRAMMAR), abstract LOCAL, EXPLICIT ‘BEING’ such as ‘the TOWN’ which we come to understand LOCALLY and EXPLICITLY BY ITS “COMPONENTS” such as streets, avenues, houses, arenas, etc. which is a far cry from RELATIONAL UNDERSTANDING which is NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT as MODERN PHYSICS has illustrated with examples such as the SURPRISE VERSION OF THE GAME OF TWENTY QUESTIONS where, because EVERYTHING IS IN FLUX, understanding can only be RELATIONAL and WITHOUT DEPENDENCE ON ‘BEING’ based ‘THINGS’.

So, in CLOSING this section on CONCLUDING OBSERVATIONS, I wish to make the point that when we read the key phrase; “though fundamentally different in nature, the development of scientific [labour] and spontaneous [leisure] concepts represents two sides of the same concept formation” , it is IMPERATIVE to KEEP IN MIND that we WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS have built into our LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SCHEME THE DOUBLE ERROR OF (A) SPLITTING APART INTO TWO PIECES, the ANDROGYNOUS TWO-SIDED WAVE-FIELD DYNAMIC  (wherein TOWNING in the TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE is ONE THING and NOT TWO SEPARATE THINGS), and (B) OUR WESTERN CULTURE practice of DROPPING OUT the FEMALE ACCOMMODATING/ENABLING CONJUGATE IS TWICE MISTAKEN since there is NO SUCH THING AS A FEMALE ACCOMMODATING/ENABLING CONJUGATE “ON ITS OWN” AS WOULD BE THE PREREQUISITE FOR ‘DROPPING “IT” OUT” , and secondly the RESIDUAL MALE ASSERTING/ACTUALIZING CONJUGATE DOES NOT EXIST ON ITS OWN, for the same reason, these two conjugates …

Though fundamentally different in nature, the development of scientific [labour] and spontaneous [leisure] concepts represents two sides of the same concept formation”

WE KNOW THIS FROM OUR SENSE-EXPERIENCE OF THE WAVE-FIELD WORLD WE LIVE IN and WE KNOW THIS FROM HERACLITUS AND WE KNOW THIS FROM MODERN PHYSICS;

All things come into being through opposition and all are in flux like a river” —Heraclitus

Hodos ano kato (ὁδὸς ἄνω κάτω), “the upward-downward path.” are simultaneous opposites, the source of “hidden harmony”. There is a harmony in the bending back (παλίντροπος palintropos) as in the case of the bow and the lyre.

While we WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS can be SHOWN WHAT WORKS, we CANNOT GO THERE DIRECTLY since GOING there requires the ANDROGYNOUS capability which we no longer have because we have conditioned ourselves to the DROPPING OUT of the FEMALE ACCOMMODATING/ENABLING and are now using the MALE ASSERTING/ACTUALIZING ON ITS OWN which equates using BINARY LOGIC which is too simple to deal with QUANTUM BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM which is where; scientific [labour] and spontaneous [leisure] concepts represent two sides of the same concept formation”

The MOMENT WE USE MALE ASSERTING/ACTUALIZING PROPOSITIONS, “ON THEIR OWN”, WE HAVE CLOSED DOWN ACCESS TO THE ANDROGYNOUS UNDERSTANDING.  BUT IN WESTERN CULTURE SOCIAL DYNAMICS IT IS COMMON TO USE THE DOUBLE ERROR of NAMING AND SAY THAT ‘THE UNITED STATES DID THIS’ or ‘DONALD TRUMP DID THAT’ AS IF THESE ARE MEANINGFUL PROPOSITIONS WHEN THEY ARE CLEARLY NOT, SINCE THEY ARE THE CRIPPLED REMNANTS OF THE DEA ABSCONDITA.

Gregory Franklin knows what he is going but for the general WESTERN CULTURE PUBLIC, liberating oneself from the TRAP of BINARY LOGIC based LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING, which is part of that journey, is not easy for us WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS and if it were, there were be more of us who supported RESTORATIVE JUSTICE rather than PURIFICATIONIST JUSTICE, and MORE OF US coming together in HEALING CIRCLES where we open ourselves up to accepting that we are all co-contributors, as strands in the web, to the current condition of our society.
