Hi all,
It is my view that we are and must be active participates in the
world we create. In an absence of consciousness nothing can exist. If
something were to exist in a space devoid of observers, then certainly we
must treat it as if it never existed at all, for it will never be discussed
by us(who have never observed it).
That said we are, it seems, essentially limited in overcoming the
SOM by our own language structure, which gives the main emphasis to
subjects and objects. If we are always destined as sentient beings to
project ourselves outward to form our world, then how do we overcome this
seemingly impenetrable barrier without a vast reformation of something that
has been engrained within us for thousands of years?
In his masterwork, WHOLENESS AND THE IMPLICATE ORDER(which I highly
recommend for anyone interested in empircal data against SOM), David Bohm
briefly confronts this dilemma and proposed the Rheomode, which basically
is a new structure of language giving emphasis to the verb and not to
nouns. It would take me a while to explain, and even if I did succeed, it
certainly could not replace our current form due to the sheer depth of the
task of reanalysis and restructuring of what we are so used to. He doesnt
intend it as a replacement but mainly he hopes to call attention to the
amount of fragmentation that our language produces.
So again, I ask, what are we to do with this dilemma?
Take Care,
-Seth
