AUTHOR’S PREFACE: The various PROBLEMS WITH WESTERN CULTURE that are written about by Laing, Henry, Bohm, Wittgenstein, Schroedinger, and Wittgenstein ALL DEAL WITH THE SAME PROBLEM which is that BECAUSE WE ARE LIVING IN A WAVE-FIELD WORLD, we need a LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SCHEME that is NONBINARY BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM based and MOST OF the DYSFUNCTION in WESTERN CULTURE SOCIAL DYNAMICS is coming from our use of A TOO SIMPLE BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC of the EXCLUDED MEDIUM based LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING.  For example, we NEED TO SAY THERE IS TOWNING IN THE TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE but this is a NONBINARY BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM linguistic conceptualizing which is BEYOND REACH of our BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC of the EXCLUDED MEDIUM based linguistic conceptualizing which is limited to ‘THE TOWN IS GROWING’ or ‘the TOWN is DEVELOPING’ or ‘THE TOWN is PRODUCING goods’, all of which suffer from the Goedel’s Theorem INCOMPLETENESS OF ALL FINITE LOGICAL PROPOSITIONS (the common propositions which are only capturing the MALE ASSERTING/ACTUALIZING (i.e. ‘the TOWN is GROWING’) and which DROP OUT the REMALE ACCOMMODATING/ENABLING  (i.e. THE WILDERNESS IS SHRINKING which is the FEMALE ACCOMMODATING/ENABLING NEEDED fOR THE MALE ASSERTING/ACTUALIZING “GROWING” of the TOWN to occur.  Thus, to speak in terms that ‘the TOWN IS GROWING’ is WRONG in the sense that it is INCOMPLETE which is the weakness of ALL FINITE LOGICAL PROPOSITIONS.

The poin here is that the COMMON PRACTICE in WESTERN CULTURE has been to LIMIT our discourse to SIMPLE LOGICAL PROPOSITIONS which are BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC OF THE EXCLUDED MEDIUM based such as ‘the TOWN is GROWING’ which MAKES NO MENTION of the PRIMARY PLAYER which is the FEMALE ACCOMMODATING/ENABLING conjugate which is ALWAYS INCLUDED IN INDIGENOUS ABORIGINAL LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING AND IN MODERN PHYSICS because we live in an ANDROGYNOUS WAVE-FIELD WORLD where for all instances of MALE ASSERTING/ACTUALIZING such as GROWTH, DEVELOPMENT and PRODUCTION, there is together with this a FEMALE ACCOMMODATING/ENABLING CONJUGATE SHRINKING of WILDERNESS, COLLAPSING of prior development and CONSUMPTION of production, and these conjugates actually play out together in the ONLY REAL DYNAMIC which is the ALL-INCLUDING CONTINUING TRANSFORMATION.  That’s why TRUMP and MUSK are always so CONSPICUOUSLY WRONG because they speak (construct LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATIONS) in such a manner as to highlight the MALE ASSERTING/ACTUALIZING such as ‘the TOWN is GROWING’ which is MISSING ITS FEMALE ACCOMMODATING/ENABLING conjugate (the WILDERNESS IS SHRINKING)   There is much more to this PROBLEM hidden in our WESTERN CULTURE LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SCHEME, including the Miner’s Canary problem.  The problem here is that it involves the NONBINARY LOGIC concept of a TOXIC SPACE (RELATIONAL DISSONANCE IN THE PLENUM – CONDENSATION RELATION) which is TOO COMPLICATED for the usual WESTERN CULTURE BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC of the EXCLUDED MEDIUM (empty space) construction wherein, if our CANARY IS SICK, the only place it could be coming from is INSIDE THE CANARY since in our BINARY LOGIC modeling scheme there is ONLY the CANARY as if within an ABSOLUTE EMPTY AND INFINITE SPACE in which case, if the CANARY is behaving strangely, the only possible source could be a MALFUNCTIONING WITHIN THE CANARY.  NOT SO in indigenous aboriginal culture, nor in MODERN PHYSICS where LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SUPPORTS the NONBINARY BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM, wherein, as Bohm forcefully reminds us;

“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).

SPACE is NOT EMPTINESS, it is WAVE-FIELD and the CONDENSATION and the WAVE-FIELD can be RESONANT (NURTURANT) and it can be DISSONANT (TOXIC).  In this case, we have a STRAND IN THE WEB situation (or a WHORLING in the FLOWING situation) where it is IMPOSSIBLE to ISOLATE the SOURCE of BEHAVIOUR so that we can determine in any of these cases whether THE STRAND IS STIRRING UP THE WEB OR VICE VERSA, … or the WHORLING IS STIRRING UP THE FLOWING or VICE VERSA, or the CONDENSATION is STIRRING UP THE PLENUM or VICE-VERSA.

 

THERE ARE NO BINARY CHOICES HERE IN ANY OF THESE CASES BECAUSE THE LOCAL AND EXPLICIT ITEM OF CONTENT IN ALL CASES, IS ONLY SCHAUMKOMMEN (APPEARANCE) and what we have is an ANDROGYNOUS combination of the NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT REALITY with the LOCAL and EXPLICIT APPEARANCE.

Psychiatrist Ronald Laing’s “THE DIVIDED SELF” and Anthropologist Jules Henry’s “CULTURE AGAINST MAN”,  Modern physics pioneer David Bohm’s ‘FRAGMENTATION’ leadoff chapter in “Wholeness and the Implicate Order” are frequently cited in my writing and these critiques are not simply a collection of RANDOM ATTACKS coming from PERSONAL BIAS.

 

Yes, I may sound like a BROKEN RECORD, in terms of critiques, but there’s more of a message ‘between the lines’ than in a simple summing of the critiques.  As Wittgenstein puts it;

 

“My propositions are elucidatory in this way: he who understands me finally recognizes them as senseless, when he has climbed out through them, on them, over them. (He must so to speak throw away the ladder, after he has climbed up on it.) He must surmount these propositions; then he sees the world rightly” — Wittgenstein

 

This FIRST FORM that the message comes in has been often repeated in some form or another, and if I was to quote Hitler, I would also be citing Nietzsche who rightly referred to the WESTERN CULTURE SOCIAL COLLECTIVE as “THE HERD”, for example a “HERD” that follows the LEADER in pursuing “GROWTH”, “DEVELOPMENT” and “PRODUCTION” …. IN SPITE OF THE REALITY THAT WE LIVE IN A TRANSFORMING RELATIONAL CONTINUUM and it is the TRANSFORMATION that we are co-contributing to which is the PRIMARY REALITY, and these “THINGS” that we say are “GROWING”, “DEVELOPING” and “PRODUCING” … DO NOT EXIST OTHER THAN AS ILLUSIONS THAT KEEP US HERD-MEMBERS MOTIVATED and thus “IN LINE”.  To quote from the heartland of a previous essay;

 

WHY AM I ASKING THE QUESTION: DO WE REALLY BELIEVE IN GROWTH, DEVELOPMENT and PRODUCTION …. INSTEAD OF TRANSFORMATION?

 

“THE HERD” is what Nietzsche calls us WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS because we go along with FEIGNED BELIEF IN INDEPENDENT NATIONS and similar BULLSHIT that is de rigeur to pretend to believe in, in our WESTERN CULTURE even though it is blatant bullshit.  Psychiatrist Ronald Lang and Anthropologist Jules Henry put our WESTERN CULTURE “HERD” mentality in very succinct and brutal terms;

 

Culture is an obsession that flies in the face of contradiction: to engulf the mind so that it will see the world only as a culture decrees it shall be seen; to compel a person to become absurd. … In order not to fail, most people are willing to believe anything and to care not whether what they are told is true or false.  Only by remaining absurd can one feel free from fear of failure.  Hence the immovableness of the absurd.”  — Jules Henry,

 

It is Henry’s contention that in practice education has never been an instrument to free the mind and the spirit of man, but to bind them. We think we want creative children, but what do we want them to create? — ‘If all through school the young were provoked to question the Ten Commandments, the sanctity of revealed religion, the foundations of patriotism, the profit motive, the two party system, monogamy, the laws of incest, and so on … — there would be such creativity that society would not know where to turn. …  Children do not give up their innate imagination, curiousity, dreaminess easily. You have to love them to get them to do that. Love is the path through permissiveness to discipline; and through discipline, only too often, to betrayal of self.” R. D. Laing

 

The BELIEF in INDEPENDENT NATIONS is one of those absurdities that we WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS have been ‘programmed’ to feign belief in, BUT WE PAY A HEAVY PRICE, THE FRAGMENTATION OF OUR OWN PSYCHE.

 

1 FRAGMENTATION AND WHOLENESS  (from Wholeness and the Implicate Order, David Bohm)

 

The title of this chapter is ‘Fragmentation and wholeness’. It is especially important to consider this question today, for fragmentation is now very widespread, not only throughout society, but also in each individual; and this is leading to a kind of general confusion of the mind, which creates an endless series of problems and interferes with our clarity of perception so seriously as to prevent us from being able to solve most of them.

 

Thus art, science, technology, and human work in general, are divided up into specialities, each considered to be separate in essence from the others. Becoming dissatisfied with this state of affairs, men have set up further interdisciplinary subjects, which were intended to unite these specialities, but these new subjects have ultimately served mainly to add further separate fragments. Then, society as a whole has developed in such a way that it is broken up into separate nations and different religious, political, economic, racial groups, etc. Man’s natural environment has correspondingly been seen as an aggregate of separately existent parts, to be exploited by different groups of people. Similarly, each individual human being has been fragmented into a large number of separate and conflicting compartments, according to his different desires, aims, ambitions, loyalties, psychological characteristics, etc., to such an extent that it is generally accepted that some degree of neurosis is inevitable, while many individuals going beyond the ‘normal’ limits of fragmentation are classified as paranoid, schizoid, psychotic, etc.

 

THIS IS “NOT”… “ME SCOLDING THE READER FOR HIS/HER WESTERN CULTURE HERD BEHAVIOUR”, … THIS IS ME SAYING “FRIENDS, FAMILY, FELLOW PARTICIPANTS IN WHAT WE COULD CALL “WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENCE”…. “WE ARE IN DEEP TROUBLE THAT WE CAN LIFT OURSELVES OUT OF BY A COLLECTIVE TRANSFORMING OF OURSELVES AND WITHOUT A BLOODBATH; i.e. by a REAWAKENING which comes when we JETTISON “BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC OF THE EXCLUDED MEDIUM” and RESUME OUR SOCIAL DYNAMICS on the basis of NONBINARY BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM.

 

Here’s how that works, and it is all about “THOUGHT and LANGUAGE” as was the title of Vygotsky’s major work.  Instead of using LANGUAGE and THOUGHT as we WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS now COMMONLY DO, to make claims of our being the AUTHORS of this, that and the other, we SWITCH THINGS AROUND so as to ACKNOWLEDGE OUR INCLUSION IN THE ALL-INCLUDING TRANSFORMING RELATIONAL CONTINUUM aka the ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM in which we are CONDENSATIONS which MODERN-PHYSICS refers to as the ALL-INCLUDING WAVE-FIELD.

 

GOODBYE to FRAGMENTATION such as “WE ARE THE MOST POWERFUL NATION IN THE WORLD”.

 

HELLO to INTERCONNECTION and INTERDEPENDENCE as in “WE ARE THE WORLD!”

 

The MEANING of this “HELLO” is that “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)

 

While indigenous aboriginals and certain others have long understood this all-including WEB-OF-LIFE reality and have incorporated this understanding in their language architecture which is NONBINARY BOTH/AND LOGIC OF THE INCLUDED MEDIUM based, this LOGIC supporting LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATIONS in terms of MATERIAL FORMS as BOTH THEMSELVES and the ALL-INCLUDING ENERGY-CHARGED, FLOWING PLENUM THAT WE AND ALL THINGS ARE INCLUDED IN (aka the WAVE-FIELD with its CONDENSATIONS).

 

MEANWHILE, WE WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS have used, and are continuing to use, a language architecture that is BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC of the EXCLUDED MEDIUM based that supports LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATIONS in terms of COLLECTIONS OF INDEPENDENT MATERIAL OBJECTS IN ABSOLUTE EMPTY AND INFINITE SPACE, notionally equipped with THEIR OWN (GRAMMAR-GIVEN) POWERS OF LOCAL AUTHORING of ACTIONS and DEVELOPMENTS which are, in this abstract model, given NO HELP OR SUPPORT from/by the EMPTY CONTAINER in which they are ostensibly FREE-MOVING INDEPENDENT CONTENT.

 

HELLO the DEA ABSCONDITA!   This ‘GODDESS IN HIDING’ refers to the REALITY of the NONVISIBLE ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM which is the source of the full ANDROGYNOUS PACKAGE of the TRANSFORMING RELATIONAL CONTINUUM WITH ITS MATERIAL CONDENSATIONS.

 

Nietzsche’s “DOUBLE ERROR OF NAMING AND GRAMMAR” refers to the WESTERN CULTURE PRACTICE of (A) INVENTING NAMES THAT IMPUTE INDEPENDENT BEING to the CONDENSATIONS, and (B) INVENTING GRAMMAR as a tool for IMPUTING TO THE NAMING-INSTANTIATED BEINGS, THEIR OWN NOTIONAL POWERS OF LOCAL AUTHORING OF ACTIONS AND DEVELOPMENT, thereby giving the impression of NON-INCLUSION in the PLENUM and instead imputing INDEPENDENCE in a physical situation, which is IN REALITY, akin to WHORLINGS IN FLOWING which has the BOTH/AND LOGIC OF THE INCLUDING MEDIUM relation where THE WHORLINGS ARE, AT THE SAME TIME, BOTH THEMSELVES AND THE FLOWING MEDIUM they are included in, and thus fully qualified to DANCE and SING “WE ARE THE WORLD”.

 

In WESTERN CULTURE, the FRAGMENTATION DERIVING FROM THE DOUBLE ERROR of NAMING and GRAMMAR BASED INVENTING OF INDEPENDENT BEINGS, NOTIONALLY WITH THEIR OWN (GRAMMAR-GIVEN) POWERS OF LOCAL AUTHORING HAS FLOURISHED IN THE WESTERN CULTURE LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SCHEME, leading to BINARY LOGIC based CONCEPTUALIZATIONS such as GUILT for AUTHORING negative actions and developments, ACCLAIM for AUTHORING positive actions and INNOCENCE for having NO INVOLVEMENT in the AUTHORING of particular OUTCOMES.

 

The abstraction of LOCAL AUTHORING supported by the DOUBLE ERROR of NAMING and GRAMMAR has remained POPULAR in the WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENCY as it serves the EGO of those claiming to be AUTHORS of desirable unfolding developments and provides as means of SCAPE-GOATING and DENIGRATING others by setting aside the understanding that EVERYTHING IS RELATED as in INTERCONNECTED and INTERDEPENDENT (as with CONDENSATIONS of the energy-charged PLENUM).

 

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

 

MODERN PHYSICS supports the indigenous aboriginal understanding wherein everything is related (INTERCONNECTED AND INTERDEPENDENT) as with CONDENSATIONS in the ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM aka WAVE-FIELD as can be pictured by the STRANDS in a WEB where the individual strands, while having their own authoring capabilities as one does in driving in freeway traffic, is nevertheless constrained in one’s movements as if a strand in a web of interconnections and interdependencies, in which case IT IS A MISTAKE TO USE LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATIONS THAT IMPLY “LOCAL AUTHORING” of actions and developments.  It is akin to identifying, in the wake of freeway-flow that incubates a FENDER-BENDER, a BINARY LOGIC based PERPETRATOR – VICTIM combination, … dismissing and dispersing all others that were participants in the complex relational traffic dynamics that, IN REALITY on NON-BINARY complexity that cannot be resolved into ‘who did what’ status due to the mathematical insolvability of the problem of three or more bodies moving under one another’s simultaneous mutual influence.   THIS DEAD-END to the habit of identifying an AUTHORING SOURCE leads, in indigenous aboriginal culture, to RESTORATIVE JUSTICE wherein there is no PROSECUTORIAL intervention, where the social collective forms a HEALING CIRCLE where the aim is to re-co-cultivated harmony (relational resonance) in the collective dynamic.

 

This RESTORATIVE JUSTICE approach is a NONBINARY LOGIC approach which employs the BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM where the model is that of the STRAND IN THE WEB, and/or the CONDENSATION in the FLOW, where THERE IS NO WAY (as happens where there are three or more participants contributing to a relational dynamic), to isolate the PARTICULAR CONTRIBUTIONS OF INDIVIDUAL PARTICIPANTS.   As in the STRANDS IN THE WEB METAPHOR, the movements of an individual STRAND is infused with contributions from the other strands, making PUNITIVE, PURIFICATIONIST JUSTICE impossible and encouraging the RESTORATIVE JUSTICE PRACTICE of re-cultivating relational harmony as is done in indigenous aboriginal cultures with the ‘healing circle’, where there is NO WESTERN CULTURE STYLE PURIFICATIONIST APPROACH OF IDENTIFYING (as with DNA, CLOSED CIRCUIT SURVEILLANCE INTO and AGATHA CHRISTIE DETECTIVE SKILLS) the “GUILTY PERPETRATOR” since such an ENTITY DOES NOT EXIST IN THE REAL WORLD of our SENSE-EXPERIENCE wherein we are CONDENSATIONS of the all-including ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM wherein everything is INTERCONNECTED and INTERDEPENDENT as with STRANDS in a SPIDER’S WEB in which case IT MAKES SENSE TO let go of the MISTAKEN WESTERN CULTURE PRACTICE of SCAPE-GOATING THE INDENTIFIED PATIENT (the strand in the web that is ‘holding the smoking gun’) and refocus on the more sensible RESTORATIVE JUSTICE APPROACH as with the HEALING CIRCLE.

 

IMPEDIMENT NUMBER ONE: EGO

 

While it would MAKE SENSE for WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS to migrate over to NON-PURIFICATIONIST “RESTORATIVE JUSTICE”, the FLY IN THE OINTMENT for WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS is the LONG HISTORY of meting out REWARDS and PUNISHMENTS and CERTIFICATION OF INNOCENCE, based on the notion of LOCAL AUTHORING of actions and developments.  These WESTERN CULTURE well established BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC of the EXCLUDED MEDIUM based practices are SHOW-STOPPERS that BLOCK the natural and needed move to the NONBINARY BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM RESTORATIVE JUSTICE approach as has been successfully employed in indigenous aboriginal cultures and was much admired by WESTERN CULTURE colonizers; e.g. the “Founding Fathers”;

 

“To Engels, Morgan’s description of the Iroquois [In Lewis Henry Morgan’s Ancient Society and The League of the Haudenosaunee or Iroquois] was important because “it gives us the opportunity of studying the organization of a society which, as yet, knows no state.”  Jefferson had also been interested in the Iroquois’ ability to maintain social concensus without a large state apparatus, as had Franklin.  Engels described the Iroquoian state in much the same way that American revolutionaries had a century earlier: “Everything runs smoothly without soldiers, gendarmes, or police, without nobles, kings, governors, prefects or judges; without prisons, without trials.  All quarrels and disputes are settled by the whole body of those concerned. . . . The household is run communistically by a number of families; the land is tribal property, only the small gerdens being temporarily assigned to the households — still, not a bit of our extensive and complicated machinery of administration is required. . . . There are no poor and needy.  The communistic household and the gens know their responsibility  towards the aged, the sick and the disabled in war.  All are free and equal — including the women.” — Bruce E. Johansen, Forgotten Founders.

 

Of course, this acknowledgement of the INTERCONNECTEDNESS and INTERDEPENDENCE of social collectives is the OPPOSITE OF DECLARATIONS OF INDEPENDENCE.

 

And just as our Copernicus said to us : It is more convenient to suppose the earth turns round, since thus the laws of astronomy are expressible in a much simpler language ; this one would say: It is more convenient to suppose the earth turns round, since thus the laws of mechanics are expressible in a much simpler language’. Henri Poincaré, ‘Science and Hypothesis’, Ch. VII Relative Motion and Absolute Motion.

 

In order to get into the custom of understanding that there is a BOTH/AND relation between MATERIAL FORMS THAT ARE CONDENSATIONS which, while they are things-in-themselves, are ALSO, AT THE SAME TIME, the ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM they are included in, one needs a LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SCHEME wherein it is understood that THE WORD that STANDS FOR a THING is NOT THE THING.

 

That is, there is a trickiness that comes with LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING in that, as in Alfred Korzybski’s famous phrase, “the word is not the thing,” which highlights the crucial distinction between a concept or representation and the actual object or experience it refers to. It emphasizes that language, including words, symbols, and mental models, are abstractions that can never fully capture the complexity and nuances of sense-experience reality.).  One can follow Korzybski’s heads-up advice to avoid confusion but yet go a step further in our understanding so as to deal with MODERN PHYSICS wherein the notion of a THING won’t work since ‘everyTHING is in flux’, in which case, as Erwin Schroedinger reminds us; “What we observe as material bodies and forces are nothing but shapes and variations in the structure of space. Particles are just schaumkommen (appearances)”.

 

So LONG AS we NEVER FALL FOR THE TRAP of using TOO-SIMPLE “BEING” based LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING (as is largely standard in WESTERN CULTURE COMMUNICATIONS so that instead of saying ‘THE TOWN IS GROWING, DEVELOPING and PRODUCING good’ (which is BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC OF THE EXCLUDED MEDIUM based [where we substitute EMPTY SPACE for the ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM]), … we say ‘There is TOWNING in the TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE’ (which is NONBINARY BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM based which handles the fact that the TOWNING is an INCLUDED FEATURE within the ALL-INCLUDING ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM aka the TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE, as with the relational dynamics of STRANDS IN THE WEB which is a logic that pervades the all-including TRANSFORMING RELATIONAL CONTINUUM aka the WEB-OF-LIFE that “WE CONDENSATIONS” (STRANDS) ARE INCLUDED IN.

 

“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)

 

Because the WEB-of-LIFE understanding of reality; which is reaffirmed by the CONDENSATIONS in the ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM has a NONBINARY BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM structure…. IS LESS SIMPLE than our WESTERN CULTURE STANDARD BINARY EITHER/OR LANGUAGE of the EXCLUDED (empty space) MEDIUM, we WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS have remained STUCK WITH THE BINARY LOGIC based LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SCHEME where we say things like ‘THE TOWN IS GROWING, DEVELOPING and PRODUCING’, when there is NO SUCH THING, where what we are trying to pass off as A TOWN (thing-in-itself) is nothing other than a “TOWNING IN THE TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE” i.e. a dynamic relational FEATURE within the TRANSFORMING RELATIONAL CONTINUUM and “IN NO WAY IS THERE SUCH A THING AS “A TOWN WITH ITS OWN POWERS OF AUTHORING GROWTH, DEVELOPMENT AND PRODUCTION of goods”, and ABSTRACTION that PURPORTEDLY “LIVES” within an ABSOLUTE EMPTY AND INFINITE SPACE such that “IT” is “ITS OWN SOURCE” of AUTHORING GROWTH, DEVELOPING and PRODUCING of goods.

 

TOTO, I HAVE A FEELING WE ARE NOT IN KANSAS ANYMORE!

 

OF COURSE THESE CONCEPTS OF GROWTH, DEVELOPMENT and PRODUCTION are BULLSHIT!  In cultures that are not stuck with over-simplified BINARY LOGIC based LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SCHEMES and have LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SCHEMES with NONBINARY LOGIC LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SCHEMES, these will support the understanding that ‘everything is transformative flux’ as is affirmed by ours sense experience of INCLUSION THEREIN (we are condensations in that flux).

 

Language is a scheme where we use an agreed set of symbols to share LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATIONS which could be of a WORLD CONSISTING OF TOWNS (and HUMANS) THAT GROW, DEVELOP and PRODUCE goods, … where, because WE DO NOT MENTION IN THE SAME CONVERSATION, there is always the option of using a RADICALY DIFFERENT LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATION which we put in terms of a WORLD CONSISTING OF A TRANSFORMING CONTINUUM IN WHICH THERE ARE TOWNINGS and HUMANINGS and many other DYNAMIC FEATURES (whorlings in the flowing of the energy-charged plenum) that, as is the nature of WHORLINGS in FLOWING where the WHORLINGS are CONDENSATIONS of the ALL-INCLUDING FLOWING wherein they show up as TOWNINGS in the TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE (aka the TRANSFORMING RELATIONAL CONTINUUM aka WAVE-FIELD).

 

Whether or not some of my friends are indigenous aboriginals who speak to me in the NONBINARY LOGIC terms that there are TOWNINGS in the TRANSFORMING or whether they are WESTERN CULTURE educated like me who speak in the BINARY LOGIC terms that the TOWN is GROWING, DEVELOPING and PRODUCING goods, … I GET IT! This is because LANGUAGES or LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SCHEMES are CONSISTENT WITHIN THEMSELVES in which case if one starts speaking in the BINARY LOGIC terms wherein THE TOWN IS GROWING, I will take my lead from this and support the conversation in saying, YES IT IS GROWING and their core business of PRODUCING PLASTIC BAGS has been REALLY GROWING,… even though, in speaking with my indigenous aboriginal friends, I will go with the very different LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING architecture where we start with the NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT (the condition of the world we share inclusion in it as with the TOWNING as a developing feature within the TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE) and using this as a foundation as our conversation shifts to the dynamics of the LOCAL and EXPLICIT, thus acknowledging the NON-REALITY of LOCAL and EXPLICIT “GROWTH”, “DEVELOPMENT” and “PRODUCTION”.

 

That is, while my WESTERN CULTURE friends give FIRST BILLING in their LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING to the BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC OF THE EXCLUDED MEDIUM based LOCAL and EXPLICIT wherein ‘THE TOWN IS GROWING’, my indigenous aboriginal friends give FIRST BILLING in their LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING to the NONBINARY BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM based NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT wherein there is TOWNING in the TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE.

 

As Goedel’s Theorem will attest, BOTH OF THEIR ACCOUNTS ARE TRUTHFUL, but the REALITY beyond that TRUTH is that ALL FINITE BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC of the EXCLUDED MEDIUM based PROPOSITIONS are INCOMPLETE, as is the case with LOCAL and EXPLICIT  CONTENT based propositions; i.e. what the LOCAL and EXPLICIT CONTENT based PROPOSITION (the TOWN is GROWING) IS MISSING is the NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT relational CONTEXT that in included in the LESS INCOMPLETE (there is TOWNING in the TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE).

 

The MESSAGE IS, … OUR CHOICE OF LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALZING ARCHITECTURE DEPENDS ON WHAT IS ONE’S PURPOSE IN USING LANGUAGE, and we may have DIFFERENT PURPOSES in which case, we may choose DIFFERENT LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING ARCHITECTURES.  As in the example, THE TOWN IS GROWING is SIMPLER because of its simple BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC OF THE EXCLUDED MEDIUM foundation which is efficient in capturing the LOCAL and EXPLICIT, whereas THERE IS TOWNING IN THE TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE is LESS SIMPLE because of its LESS SIMPLE NONBINARY BOTH/AND LOGIC OF THE INCLUDED MEDIUM foundation which is more complete and supports the capture of the NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT.

 

From an INFORMATIONAL POINT OF VIEW, the NONBINARY BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM DELIVERS MORE COMPLETE INFORMATION which informs on the ANDROGYNOUS STRUCTURE of the NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT world of our SENSE-EXPERIENCE of INCLUSION therein wherein SUBJECT and OBJECT ARE ONLY ONE, …  while the BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC of the EXCLUDED MEDIUM DELIVERS LESS COMPLETE INFORMATION that informs us on only the MALE ASSERTING/ACTUALIZING STRUCTURE of the LOCAL and EXPLICIT world of our VOYEUR PERCEPTION wherein SUBJECT and OBJECT are SPLIT INTO TWO.

 

WESTERN CULTURE has emphasized the use of SIMPLE BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC of the EXCLUDED MEDIUM which is ONLY CAPABLE of LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATION that is LOCAL and EXPLICIT which is where SUBJECT and OBJECT are split apart and while one can see that ‘THE TOWN IS GROWING’, this type of observing “of the EXCLUDED MEDIUM” BLOCKS FROM ACCESS the more inclusive NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT view wherein SUBJECT and OBJECT are ONLY ONE, which ‘comes with’ the acknowledging of that reality that we are INCLUDED in the WORLD WE ARE LOOKING OUT AT;

 

“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)

 

Our choice of LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SCHEME is thus HIGHLY IMPORTANT since if we opt for the NONBINARY BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM ‘THERE IS TOWNING AND HUMANING IN THE TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE’ we are speaking and understanding in those terms where SUBJECT and OBJECT are ONLY ONE, …  that Schroedinger captures in his comment;

 

The world is given to me only once, not one existing and one perceived. Subject and object are only one. The barrier between them cannot be said to have broken down as a result of recent experience in the physical sciences, for this barrier does not exist.” …Erwin Schroedinger

 

Alternatively, the WESTERN CULTURE has tended to support the simpler BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC OF THE EXCLUDED MEDIUM (wherein there are only objects in empty space) understanding as given by ;

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.

 

This is in clear conflict with the views of Schroedinger (“subject and object are only one) and Seattle; “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.” 

 

So, as we know, we are all faced with the option of CHOOSING ONE OR THE OTHER, and while we are ostensible FREE to MAKE OUR OWN PERSON CHOICE, there is good reason why Nietzsche calls us WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS “THE HERD”.

 

How we make our CHOICE in formulating our LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATIONS (whether we use BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC of the EXCLUDED MEDIUM which splits apart SUBJECT AND OBJECT and makes us VOYEURS of and EXPLOITERS of the world we are living in, as IN GENESIS 1:28  … or whether we use NONBINARY BOTH/AND LOGIC OF THE INCLUDED MEDIUM) wherein we understand ourselves and all others to be INCLUDED as interconnected and interdependent STRANDS IN THE WEB OF LIFE, is MAKING A HUGE DIFFERENCE in the AMBIANCE of the SOCIAL-CULTURE DYNAMIC we are included in.

 

As we can see presently in the world, we have given away our authority to THE ADMINISTRATIVE AUTHORITIES who are all, as in a HERD LIKE FASHION, using their centralized powers to push a very one-sided BINARY LOGIC based AUTHORITARIANISM which can NEVER WORK in a world wherein INTERCONNECTION and INTERDEPENDENCE is FOUNDATION, and can only lead to FRAGMENTATION, whether it be in the form of  POWERFUL FACTIONS that are continually SHAPE-SHIFTING  or FORMING TIMELY ALLIANCES.  While there is also the option to go with NONBINARY BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM; i.e.

“as Engels described the Iroquoian state in much the same way that American revolutionaries had a century earlier; “Everything runs smoothly without soldiers, gendarmes, or police, without nobles, kings, governors, prefects or judges; without prisons, without trials.  All quarrels and disputes are settled by the whole body of those concerned. . . . The household is run communistically by a number of families; the land is tribal property, only the small gerdens being temporarily assigned to the households — still, not a bit of our extensive and complicated machinery of administration is required. . . . There are no poor and needy.  The communistic household and the gens know their responsibility  towards the aged, the sick and the disabled in war.  All are free and equal — including the women.” .” — Bruce E. Johansen, Forgotten Founders.

 

In today’s WESTERN CULTURE DOMINATED BINARY LOGIC PROMOTING WORLD, which now includes the CHINESE and INDIAN LEADERSHIP as well as PUTIN along with the WESTERN COMPLEX, the ADMINISTRATIONS have embraced the BINARY and where BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC OF THE EXCLUDED MEDIUM prevails, it BLOCKS the emergence of NONBINARY BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM which is where the indigenous aboriginal culture has been, and which is also found in the informal (non-hierarchical) social customs in our WESTERN CULTURE although NOT in the AUTHORITARIAN SYSTEMS OF GOVERNANCE that the rank and file of our WESTERN CULTURE HERD PUTS IN CHARGE OF ITSELF
