I want to thank you for not editing these videos, as so many do, by condensing the pauses. We humans speak to each other in a kind of rhythm that, over time, can become ever more refined such that we pause in moments where we hope our conversation partner, or audience, will process what we've been saying. I believe that humans need these pauses to follow along deliberately. When I encounter a video that lacks such pauses, I usually stop watching/listening because without time to process what's being said now and again... it's more like an experience of being talked 'at' than of being talked 'with'. So again, thank you for not playing into that 'no pause' style of editing.
This topic was so interesting to this "being" to the point theres now a "playlist" about it to be found on "my page" for all to share as a communal repository to aid in humanity's unity. Peace and love All whos eyes fall on this comment has attracted this comment requesting to take a very genuine intellectually/emotionally honest "journey" through the "playlist" centered around this on "my page" made to shed light on/ provide a list of video options related to this and provide easy access to a list of threads for all to use and unite together to find "truth", peace, love, etc.. The list may appear scattered but as mentioned theres a "journey" presented. Should one take the journey, take it "lightly", yet "seriously". Peace and love.... Sharing the list is requested as well as things such as communing with others to connect missing pieces, coming together with others to arrive at a widely agreed upon map of the earth(flat/stereographic/etc), uniformly realizing capitalism and money systems beget kids starving in the streets and war after war, and so much more..... so this plane can finally have true: Peace and love...
I agree, but think that the real point is that your worldview is limited by the words and concepts that you are aware of. If you don't know that welding exists, you can't possibly become a welder.
*The Tyranny of Words* (1938) by Stuart Chase George Orwell mentioned Chase in an essay on politics. Chase published the book, *A New Deal* shortly before FDR's famous speech. He was a member of FDR's brain trust.
I remember being a little kid before I could talk or understand much of my native language (English). I just saw the world and I felt that I was much more connected to it when I didn't assign any labels to anything, I just observed it for what it was.
All is the language of form. Shapes have angles and sides. Those are also equations. Those are numbers, sums, numerical values. Those are frequencies. Frequencies are sound. Sound is vibration. Vibration is form. Form is matter. Matter is perceived by interaction with light. ... That's about as far as I've kinda figured it. Basically. And i think light is information.... But I'm still working on this intersection haha. Anyway, it's fun. And yeah creation is the language of all of it. And you can ignore a part of the whole but it won't do much to connect the dots at the end of the day. "Be impeccable with your word." -one of The Four Agreements (it's a book. And a good one, too). This is a whole lot easier when you are crystal clear about your intention. Intention is key. Pay attention to your intention. You can end up doing this dozens and dozens of times a day, before you act, speak, interact, and direct your private thoughts even without words. The words find themselves when there's clear intent. And you don't have to be perfect all the time, you just..... It just helps you to know. Accept and love yourself right where you are, and when you speak your words will reflect back to you how far you've come. Speak your truth with love if you must. Otherwise perhaps speaking is quite unnecessary at this time. If the world was silent for 3 minutes i wonder what we would hear. Peace ;) Life's on track. just roll with it. For real, just go have some fun outside that. It's all ok. Everything is just fine. And it's getting better. Every minute. Thanks for being here. We need ya ;) Dream about the new stuff. That's where you can paint the future for everyone. Speak it into existence. Everything you don't like, thank you for finding that out. Change it for us. What should it look like. What will be better. Collectively we have witnessed enough bullsheeit that we can make every single crumb of broken society a radiant reflection of what we deserve. Use your newfound silence to imagine it better. Whatever it is for you. Whatever you care about a lot. Create it in your feels, thoughts, then words, then deeds, it snowballs effortlessly. But we know enough, for crying out loud. Imma get off the UA-cam and imagine the future for the harvest part of my days. Wow,ok, rant over. Haha. Dunno where that came from but i guess it needed to be said, i dunno. High five, if you're still reading though. And You are very rad for sticking with it. I speak the truth best i can. Impeccable, absolutely. Sometimes you just know shit. Right? . Bye :)
This was genius, and I'd like to print your theory and frame it Im so enchanted..that Ok?Id like to quote you by whatever you'd like to be known as also..if ok with you? Thank you. Second part was so beautiful I shed a tear, again, thank you. What an awe inspiring human you must be to have s😮uch a perspective...you've really inspired me. Well done mate on acing humanity ❤ PS : Right 👏
No seriously, I tried to move along and scroll down but had to scroll right back up and here we are lol, Masterpiece comment and a glimpse into a masterpiece mind no doubt Thanks again fellow human
That's exactly why people back then studied poetry and literature so hard. Just to not be controlled by their own language, but instead to control and shape it as it's needed for the correct expression of their thoughts and perceptions. Look at the greatest poets, it looks like they are their language itself. It's beautiful to read Camões, Vergil and others, and see how well they handled their language limitations and how well they created new ways of expression, in order to correctly tell what's on their mind. You can't achieve this level without a lot of reading (of good books) and practice, two things that people nowadays don't do anymore.
yesterday i was thinking that everything i do other people are far better than me and then i find out by myself that this is the outcome of environment i am lving in and what my parents taught me and today this video just popped out answered my every single question i am 20 yrs old and i think i am completely zero, I was feeling everything rather than thinking .
You just grew up and became an adult. The good thing is you are very young at 20 to have this awakening. Some people never achieve this awakening. Ignore the past if it is inadequate, it is a story that cannot change and is largely irrelevant. Believe in your future self and you ability to become whatever you desire. The only thing between you and a better future is hard work and dedication.
I see your trying to manipulate our opinions about these ideas through linguistic manipulation🤔 by reducing these ideas down to linguistic manipulation. That's why skepticism is so useful in this day and age, we must admit the world is more complicated than what we know with our logical mind. You just put a 20 minute video in a 2 word abstraction
The littles in our lives are much more accepting, they dont hear thoughts but a different voice. It can be off putting as they age, the warmth you project helps immensely.
Well in his defense, English is the deadest language out there. That is why it is the most used language in the world. Don’t worry about it. We’ll go back to nonverbal communication eventually.🤪
I enjoy the information, the video format, the imagery, captions, narration and the long pauses between...it actually sounds like how a conversation would occur.
For a while I’ve been describing language as an invisible scaffolding that holds concepts and our interpretation of reality together. And they need to as simple and direct as possible at all times. Thanks to UA-cam’s algorithms, I now have several new, numerical-based ideas to try on as lenses for my use of language. The context of language is just as important as the context of language. This was a fascinating watch, and thanks for putting Stuart Chase on my radar.
"When two individuals interact, the "sicker" person determines the relationship. The more extreme and rigid the person, the greater hir interpersonal "pull"-the stronger hir ability to shape the relationships with others. The withdrawn catatonic, the irretrievable criminal, the compulsively flirtatious charmer can inevitably provoke the expected response from a more well-balanced "other". We meet here a lowest-common-denominator process, a Gresham's law of interpersonal collisions. Sick people control the interpersonal interaction. The "sicker" or the more maladaptively rigid, the more power to determine the nature of the relationship." [The Politics of Self-Determination, Timothy Leary]
Among many others, these quotes now make more sense to me: “Arguing with a fool proves there are two.” ― Doris M. Smith "Never argue with fools. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience. ” ― Mark Twain. "Never argue with an idiot. You'll never convince the idiot that you're correct, and bystanders won't be able to tell who's who." ― Mark Twain.
Language has two trajectories. One toward definition and the pursuit of a singular meaning. An end to any further connections and a kind of ground zero in making sense. The other arc is toward language rich in associations, and potential for meaning. Into patterns of growing complexity and neater transmissions. Definitions become clearer boundaries as meaning gets stretched in different ways that define new emergent conditions. Relating to the qualities of information, signal flow and connection strength, if nothing novel comes to mind. Language always works at the level of responsivity, not for a necessity of communication, and only obliquely in discovery when the terms become experimental conditions. Contracts that can be detailed in logic and reason.
"The Dao that can be spoken is not the eternal Dao" The idea's been around since looong before Chase wrote a book about it. Excellent presentation of the concept however. Though there is much more to be explored... Infinitely more.
Hello, little one. I am impressed with your mind. I view you as a New Human. Please understand that when you arrived, we were not ready. Few of us are balanced in harmony with our universe. You must not be made a scapegoat like i was.
Ancient bharatiy sages used to believe that our spoken words always exists in the air. natural world is kind of like a sound system and sometimes it echoes back those voices to those people who have ability to listen nature. so many cultures worship us as godly beings but to us we are special beings having supernatural capabilities.
There's a video by Alan Watts on UA-cam called the limits of language and this is almost an exact word for word recounting of that video. I love what you had to say up until the mathematics part and then you took a very dualistic turn.. but I really enjoyed the first half, thank you. Your spot on about the language. Namaste 🙏
Interesting. I love etymology. I find that most folks really don't understand the real meaning of most of the words they use! Take the word 'awful' for example. Most think of it as a negative word. It simply means filled with awe! I enjoyed this video. Thanx ! :)
Many years ago I was convinced by a philosopher friend to investigate Korzybski’s ideas, energy-binding, space-binding, and time-binding. I bought one of his books but had to stop reading after 10-12 pages because at least once per page he opines that this is the most important book ever written. To him, perhaps, but how many Nobel Prize winners quote him? Never forget that Philosophy is a just a useful system of words built upon words.
This left me when language became mathematics. The essence of language is that it is spoken. We think not in sentences so much as in phrases, though a good sentence often spirals from our musings. Language is infinitely complex and we use language to bring about order in our perception of the unseen order of infinite complexity. The precision of mathematics leads to mechanistic interruptions of reality. Mathematics is a language, the language of measurement. Not everything is measurable because of underlying infinite complexity. However, language and words are already infinitely complex, and suitable to function within an infinitely complex universe.
@@malcolmwatt7386Having too much meaning does lead to ambiguity though, doesn't it? If the argument is about how to convey objective meaning in the most efficient manner, then Mathematics does seem to be the way, although it might only be aplicable over a narrower section of reality.
@@thiagoporto7879 Ambiguity is the result of inner confusion within the individual. Clear language creates clear thought. Ambiguity creeps into the language through mixed metaphors and euphemisms. Commercial language as used by advertisers is a good example of how language becomes ambiguous. Mathematics cannot solve this type of adulteration.
You guys still don't get the point and stuck in the pattern of not understanding arguing as he explained in the video. It's not about mathematics or language, rewatch and you will understand
It makes sense. I guess this is why higher beings from other planets are said to express themselves telepathically since it makes more sense that you need to express thru your experience instead verbally speaking it lack the experience side so there for the mind miss understands
First problem we as a collective must recognize is that linear language systems doesn’t map well to a multidimensional world. By adopting a multidimensional language structure and a few first principles we can create a new language discipline and turn language into a puzzle solving exercise.
I read this recently: "If language is not correct then what is said is not what is meant, and what must be done remains undone. If things remain undone, morals and art deteriorate. If justice goes astray, the people stand about in helpless confusion. Hence there must be no arbitrariness in what is said. This matters above everything." -Confucius
Absolutely true! Look for the first language and the letters, or runes… any letter practically is also a message. I can give you the contact with the researchers of the first language spoken on Earth if you are interested in the knowledge. ❤
"Number, that is to say, is not only auditory and resonant, like the spoken word, but originates in the sense of touch, of which it is an extension." [Understanding Media: The Extension of Man, Marshall McLuhan, 1964, Ch. 11: Number] "In every sense, the amassing of numbers statistically gives man a new influx of primitive intuition and magically subconscious awareness, whether of public taste or feeling: "You feel better satisfied when you use well-known brands." [Understanding Media: The Extension of Man, Marshall McLuhan, 1964, Ch. 11: Number]
Nicely done, impressive message I agree with wholeheartedly. There is an exception @ 15:45, poetry may have some exceptions. If I am attempting to express a concept beyond mathematics or even logic like so many myth makers and poets do then I think there should be an open door to walk through and envision this abstract, nebulous world. These words attempt to bridge the gap of reason with some intuitive not yet understood potential. Perhaps it is too nebulous but I think it is a justifiable abstract a poet attempts to elucidate allowing words without borders and the inspiration they help foster. That is also part of our existential heritage.
My interpretation of freedom is Freedom from want, freedom from the lack of choices and Freedom from the imprisonment of mind. I follow the Buddha's path to Supreme Freedom! Yeah, I got reference!👍🏻
Neurodivergent here...hate conversations with most people, due to the ambiguity. I'm very precise with my words, even going out of the way to explain specifically what I mean by the use of a word in the middle of a sentence. People under me know exactly what's expected of them and never have to worry about something they've interpreted wrong biting them in the ass. People need to take responsibility for what comes out of their mouths.
You might be interested in The economics of linguistic exchanges, by French sociologist Pierre Bourdieu. It’s complementary to this, as it explains why some words have more “value” recognition or legitimacy. And how these words brick by brick create structures unknowingly

We are also limited by the words that we utilize in order to point out that we are limited by the words we utilize in order to point out that we are limited by the words we utilize……. Silence. Silence in thought. Silence in word. Silence in deed. The closest we will come to understanding Truth.
As a depth occultist and a sorcerer, I use words in liturgies as weapons against things, and indeed, to alter my reality as a broken fountain in the midst of a beautiful and terrible silence.
Words can also be demystified if you see them as art. What are you looking at? What construction techniques are in play? It's great if you can see language as an equation, but that's not always possible.
Yes, empty words have no grounding. Simple words which relate to our earthly surroundings and to each moment, are the most nourishing. The old folk sayings, such as "time and tide wait for no man", and "many a slip 'twixt the cup and the lip" etc., contain truth without verbiage and contain psychological truths simply.
I'm surprised that this video doesn't bring in the work of Ferdinand de Saussure. Signs and symbols are key aspects of Post-Structuralism, to which this video is a delightful ode.
Or, you should go to the "Videos" page and use the search function to see whether the word "psychedelics" (and related words) are in any of the titles. That way, you don't have to 'my bad' anything -- you'll know, because you did the 'hard' work of searching and typing :) Cheers!
"Classical (Pavlovian) conditioning can be done with earthworms, and operant (Skinnerian) conditioning can be conducted on rats and pigeons. But there is a third level of learning that pretty much only primates and humans are capable of, and that is what is called social learning. This third level of learning, in its most powerful form, revolves primarily around the observation and imitation of a role model. Unlike operant conditioning, in social learning it is not essential that the learner be directly reinforced in order for learning to take place. What is important in social learning is to understand the characteristics that can lead to the selection of a specific individual as a role model. The processes that make someone a desirable role model include: • Vicarious reinforcement. You see the role model being reinforced in a manner that you can experience vicariously. • Similarity to the learner. You perceive that the role model has a key trait that makes him/her similar to you. • Social power. The role model has the power to reward (but does not necessarily do so). • Status envy. You envy the role model's receipt of rewards from others." [On Killing, Lt. Col. Dave Grossman, 2009, Chapter 4]
Agradeco seu video e informaçoes muito interessantes! realmente as palavras sao demasiadamente subjetivas e realmente ja percebi que as vezes falamos algo e outras pessoas interpretam de maneira totalmente diferente......esses miseraveis politicos da atualidade ou de sempre surfam nessa incongruência linguistica. abraços e obrigado
It's also interesting how thinking in numbers starts to become a practice in my life related to a more mature and realistic approach because I feel more grounded in reality. Also, the rise of LLMs is to be taken into account. What is the function and intention of words? If they are not observed, they can throw us into a spiral of chaos, just like it happens in LLMs hallucinations. Thank you for this!!!
Since it is also a form of communication, mathematics can also be manipulated, not in the methodology but in its ultimate interpretation where inevitably again words kick in. But it is harder to be manipulated than plain language.
After living a fairly long life, I can explain what the importance of who owns the dictionary: If you can control the words, you can control the narrative. If you can control the narrative, you can control the politics. If you can control the politics, you can control the People. If you can control the People, you can control the world. Every raging torrent begins with a raindrop.
"Freedom," "justice," etc. are not just abstractions. They point to concepts that exist in reality. Concepts, like physical objects, are entities, though it is important to understand that they are "intentional" in the sense used by phenomenologist philosopher Franz Brentano: freedom is always the freedom of someone or some system; justice is always justice for a person or a group. In other words, they are not floating abstractions but always relate to some physical entity. You wouldn't know that a courtroom is bought and sold without first knowing what justice is. You wouldn't know that propaganda was being spread without first knowing the concept of truth. Heidegger made a distinction between WORD and LANGUAGE. WORD is that which attaches to a concept of an entity, physical or otherwise, while LANGUAGE is a labyrinth of semantics that cannot be trusted but must be carefully analyzed.
Numbers Can Lie. A recent video by a young lady really changed my perception of math. She simply said if 1+1 equals 2 .... Then why?, in demonstration does 1 drop of water added to 1 drop of water equals a larger drop. . There's more to it but anywhooo.
Supply and demand is law on all forms of energy. Language is an agreed upon algorithm of logic operations of comparison used to communicate. Some only see reality surface deep and barely that. Thus words are hard for them.
Number's can, also, lie, just like words. Read the book, How to Lie with Statistics, and learn Kurt Godel Incompletedness Theory, and you will realize mathematics is a player in the deception of humanity just as much as words; in fact, math is a language built on assumptions the same as words.
@@RichardHarlos Without axioms, math does not "prove" anything, read Bertrand Russell's The Principles of Mathmatics, and axioms which operate as the foundation of mathematical "logic" are what, assumptions. What is statistics? Statistics: "Statistics is a branch of applied mathematics that involves the collection, description, analysis, and inference of conclusions from quantitative data." Hence, statistics is a "branch of applied mathmatics," so my assumption has a foundation; however, your free to play sematical games ad infinitum, hopefully with someone else; however my comment stands as cited.
@@Carl-b1q wrote, _"your free to play semantical games..."_ You're projecting what you're doing onto me, and I can prove it. You wrote: _"statistics is a "branch of applied mathmatics," so my assumption has a foundation;"_ First, I didn't say that you assumption didn't have a foundation. You're answering something I didn't say, which is to create a straw man... a fallacy... an error in reasoning. So, to fix this, I suggest you look online for something like 'common fallacies' and learn how your thinking is incorrect so that you can remedy it. Second, statistics is as defined. This makes it a tool. And tools can be used well or poorly. I can use a hammer to build a house, or to smash someone's windshield. People can use statistics well or poorly, and when used poorly, it may be a result of insufficient skill to use it properly, or a result of a deliberate will to misrepresent the truth, and to deceive those who read/hear that misrepresentation. You're getting an education here. Whether you're intellectually honest enough to benefit from it remains to be seen.
I've come to experience that labels (which thanks to this video I now understand as all words pretty much are labels) seem to lock things in place so to speak.... When I'm able to stop myself from labeling everything it's as if much more information becomes available and the potential of everything and everyone stays open but w labels it's the opposite.... I hope that's understandable... It's hard for me to put into words....
Big.kudos, I'm working on a book. The kinda aligns with some of the perspective. You did good. I'm definitely going to look up the book. It's a deep rabbit hole. It's challenges every when you look beyond the hood of the car of life. Products of the mind.
Nerve system or nervous system? A nerve system has two settings: calm and nervous. A nervous system has only one setting - nervous. This is a clear example of word sorcery at it's most pernicious and explains a global population with nerves perpetually on edge, desperately seeking relief. Justice = Equity
Charles wrote, _"Nerve system or nervous system?"_ What are you replying to? The video doesn't contain the word "nerve" anywhere in the transcript? Did you mishear something, or did you perhaps mean to reply to someone else's comment, but mistakenly posted your reply as it's own thread starter?
"It is this ideological abrogation to the authority that constitutes the principal cognitive basis of obedience. If, after all, the world or the situation is as the authority defines it, a certain set of actions follows logically. The relationship between authority and subject, therefore, cannot be viewed as one in which a coercive figure forces action from an unwilling subordinate. Because the subject accepts authority's definition of the situation, action follows willingly." [Obedience To Authority, Stanley Milgram, 1973]
This is why agreed upon definitions are so important. "Working class" is not an abstraction if it has rubrics. Relativism allows each person to create an entire world for themselves. The introduction of Relativism was necessary to destabilized society and increase control. Relativism is dependant on emotional reasoning...which is needed to manipulate people. The larger the vocabulary, the more complexity the brain can see. Abstraction is necessary for progress, but standardized definitions are necessary for daily life communication, teamwork, and debate.
"All beings so far have created something beyond themselves; and do you want to be the ebb of this great flood and even go back to the beasts rather than overcome man? What is the ape to man? A laughingstock or a painful embarrassment. And man shall be just that for the overman: a laughingstock or a painful embarrassment. You have made your way from worm to man, and much in you is still worm. Once you were apes, and even now, too, man is more ape than any ape." [Thus Spoke Zarathustra, Friedrich Nietzsche]
Seeing the movement of words where the choice of one word over the other may take you onto a different pathway of ideas.Aware of what's happening in the creation of a piece of writing or the acceptance of a presentation from the dark side dependant on what's coming out of established and habitual content, patterns from the function Thanks
I noticed that there are some logical fallacies laced into this video, but good effort. Ironically, (to make) this video, is the antithesis of the thesis discussed.
10:50 Econ major here. They teach us this. We’re taught that it obviously can’t apply to everything and it’s at best a simple way of watching overall trends in certain markets. At no point are Econ majors taught that economic theory explains all aspects of human nature.
Words cannot control you if you understand what they are, mere symbols that represent reality. But we so brainwashed by them that they have become the reality and most people are lost in them. Put language in its place, it is secondary, not primary. Sensory experience is primary.

All is the language of form.
Shapes have angles and sides.

Those are numbers, sums, numerical values.
Those are frequencies.
Frequencies are sound.
Sound is vibration.

Form is matter.
Matter is perceived by interaction with light.

And i think light is information.... But I'm still working on this intersection haha.

Just to not be controlled by their own language, but instead to control and shape it as it's needed for the correct expression of their thoughts and perceptions. Look at the greatest poets, it looks like they are their language itself. It's beautiful to read Camões, Vergil and others, and see how well they handled their language limitations and how well they created new ways of expression, in order to correctly tell what's on their mind. You can't achieve this level without a lot of reading (of good books) and practice, two things that people nowadays don't do anymore.
Well said!!!
yesterday i was thinking that everything i do other people are far better than me and then i find out by myself that this is the outcome of environment i am lving in and what my parents taught me and today this video just popped out answered my every single question i am 20 yrs old and i think i am completely zero, I was feeling everything rather than thinking .
You just grew up and became an adult. The good thing is you are very young at 20 to have this awakening. Some people never achieve this awakening. Ignore the past if it is inadequate, it is a story that cannot change and is largely irrelevant. Believe in your future self and you ability to become whatever you desire. The only thing between you and a better future is hard work and dedication.
I am 26 and in the same boat
A video about linguistic manipulation that is seeping with linguistic manipulation!
I had to stop half way lol.
I was thinking the same thing
Wow, yes! I thought “But what do you mean by THAT?” at least 50 times!
I see your trying to manipulate our opinions about these ideas through linguistic manipulation🤔 by reducing these ideas down to linguistic manipulation. That's why skepticism is so useful in this day and age, we must admit the world is more complicated than what we know with our logical mind. You just put a 20 minute video in a 2 word abstraction
@@followyourbliss2404the world isn't complicated at all we humans just over complicate everything.
The littles in our lives are much more accepting, they dont hear thoughts but a different voice. It can be off putting as they age, the warmth you project helps immensely.
You are describing this and condemning words and proving their limitations with the help of words only. What a paradox!
Thats why is so important your native language ...i feel rich only for this ...i am Greek !
Well in his defense, English is the deadest language out there. That is why it is the most used language in the world. Don’t worry about it. We’ll go back to nonverbal communication eventually.🤪
I enjoy the information, the video format, the imagery, captions, narration and the long pauses between...it actually sounds like how a conversation would occur.
To look at something without putting words to it is a good exercise. Try it on a “Tree”.
For a while I’ve been describing language as an invisible scaffolding that holds concepts and our interpretation of reality together. And they need to as simple and direct as possible at all times. Thanks to UA-cam’s algorithms, I now have several new, numerical-based ideas to try on as lenses for my use of language. The context of language is just as important as the context of language. This was a fascinating watch, and thanks for putting Stuart Chase on my radar.
"When two individuals interact, the "sicker" person determines the relationship.
The more extreme and rigid the person, the greater hir interpersonal "pull"-the stronger hir ability to shape the relationships with others. The withdrawn catatonic, the irretrievable criminal, the compulsively flirtatious charmer can inevitably provoke the expected response from a more well-balanced "other".
We meet here a lowest-common-denominator process, a Gresham's law of interpersonal collisions. Sick people control the interpersonal interaction. The "sicker" or the more maladaptively rigid, the more power to determine the nature of the relationship."
[The Politics of Self-Determination, Timothy Leary]

FASCINATING comment. Thank you for taking the time to write. And thank you for the reference. Very helpful
You hit the nail on the head, dude!
Ohhh that was brilliant i love timothy,u know he turnt Ram Dass onto mushrooms and well the story speaks for itself. Great comment.

Among many others, these quotes now make more sense to me:
“Arguing with a fool proves there are two.” ― Doris M. Smith
"Never argue with fools. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience. ” ― Mark Twain.
"Never argue with an idiot. You'll never convince the idiot that you're correct, and bystanders won't be able to tell who's who." ― Mark Twain.
We literally have this topic in my German classes at school now! With Sapir-Whorf Hypothesis, Guy Deutscher, Boroditsky, etc.
Language has two trajectories. One toward definition and the pursuit of a singular meaning. An end to any further connections and a kind of ground zero in making sense. The other arc is toward language rich in associations, and potential for meaning. Into patterns of growing complexity and neater transmissions. Definitions become clearer boundaries as meaning gets stretched in different ways that define new emergent conditions. Relating to the qualities of information, signal flow and connection strength, if nothing novel comes to mind.
Language always works at the level of responsivity, not for a necessity of communication, and only obliquely in discovery when the terms become experimental conditions. Contracts that can be detailed in logic and reason.
8:08.. I appreciate you putting yellow, orange, green, and Red on your screen.. thank you for your understanding of certain things.
"The Dao that can be spoken is not the eternal Dao"
The idea's been around since looong before Chase wrote a book about it.
Excellent presentation of the concept however. Though there is much more to be explored... Infinitely more.
Your videos are so reflective and inspiring. [6:53] Glad to see channels bringing peace and guidance in such a unique way. 🌙
Hello, little one. I am impressed with your mind. I view you as a New Human. Please understand that when you arrived, we were not ready.
Few of us are balanced in harmony with our universe. You must not be made a scapegoat like i was.
Its all in the mind, manage it towards conciousness and apply it where it thrives accordingly
To believe a word is a thing closes the mind to understand fully what the thing is.
Some words are absolute based upon what they represent. Truth is one of those words. Truth is immutable
Ancient bharatiy sages used to believe that our spoken words always exists in the air.
natural world is kind of like a sound system and sometimes it echoes back those voices to those people who have ability to listen nature.
so many cultures worship us as godly beings but to us we are special beings having supernatural capabilities.
I'm glad to know that logical people exist
There's a video by Alan Watts on UA-cam called the limits of language and this is almost an exact word for word recounting of that video. I love what you had to say up until the mathematics part and then you took a very dualistic turn.. but I really enjoyed the first half, thank you. Your spot on about the language. Namaste 🙏
This was such a perfect time for the video to pop up in my feed
May I ask why
Interesting. I love etymology. I find that most folks really don't understand the real meaning of most of the words they use! Take the word 'awful' for example. Most think of it as a negative word. It simply means filled with awe!
I enjoyed this video.
Thanx ! :)
Yes thinking in yes slides you along the geometry of yes.
Many years ago I was convinced by a philosopher friend to investigate Korzybski’s ideas, energy-binding, space-binding, and time-binding. I bought one of his books but had to stop reading after 10-12 pages because at least once per page he opines that this is the most important book ever written. To him, perhaps, but how many Nobel Prize winners quote him? Never forget that Philosophy is a just a useful system of words built upon words.
This left me when language became mathematics. The essence of language is that it is spoken. We think not in sentences so much as in phrases, though a good sentence often spirals from our musings. Language is infinitely complex and we use language to bring about order in our perception of the unseen order of infinite complexity. The precision of mathematics leads to mechanistic interruptions of reality. Mathematics is a language, the language of measurement. Not everything is measurable because of underlying infinite complexity. However, language and words are already infinitely complex, and suitable to function within an infinitely complex universe.
Words can also be infinitely ambigious and therefore much less efficient than mathematics, he never said mathematics were perfected.
@@tmerk4292 Rubbish. Words are full of meaning.
@@malcolmwatt7386Having too much meaning does lead to ambiguity though, doesn't it? If the argument is about how to convey objective meaning in the most efficient manner, then Mathematics does seem to be the way, although it might only be aplicable over a narrower section of reality.
@@thiagoporto7879 Ambiguity is the result of inner confusion within the individual. Clear language creates clear thought. Ambiguity creeps into the language through mixed metaphors and euphemisms. Commercial language as used by advertisers is a good example of how language becomes ambiguous. Mathematics cannot solve this type of adulteration.
You guys still don't get the point and stuck in the pattern of not understanding arguing as he explained in the video. It's not about mathematics or language, rewatch and you will understand
It makes sense. I guess this is why higher beings from other planets are said to express themselves telepathically since it makes more sense that you need to express thru your experience instead verbally speaking it lack the experience side so there for the mind miss understands
Thank you for this amazing video finally someone talks about such a fundamental topic that everyone seems to ignore ❤
First problem we as a collective must recognize is that linear language systems doesn’t map well to a multidimensional world.
By adopting a multidimensional language structure and a few first principles we can create a new language discipline and turn language into a puzzle solving exercise.
I see this as the positive side of postmodern reasoning whereas currently we're seeing much of the opposite.
Absolutly amazing. Critical thinking is key for consciousness and awareness.
Extremely accurate? And timely today. But who is listening?
I absolutely loved this video! I wholeheartedly agree with the points it makes. Thank You!
Lately, I have been keeping my mouth shut. Besides the thoughts and words in my head continue to happen.
Circling the square, and squaring the circle 6,9,3 innovations with 3,5,8 logistics!
I read this recently:
"If language is not correct then what is said is not what is meant, and what must be done remains undone. If things remain undone, morals and art deteriorate. If justice goes astray, the people stand about in helpless confusion. Hence there must be no arbitrariness in what is said. This matters above everything."
-Confucius
Thats why is so important your native language ....
You put my thoughts into words. Thank you.
Absolutely true! Look for the first language and the letters, or runes… any letter practically is also a message. I can give you the contact with the researchers of the first language spoken on Earth if you are interested in the knowledge. ❤
That's why you have to watch what people do, not what they say. That will show you their true selves.
"Number, that is to say, is not only auditory and resonant, like the spoken word, but originates in the sense of touch, of which it is an extension."
[Understanding Media: The Extension of Man, Marshall McLuhan, 1964, Ch. 11: Number]
"In every sense, the amassing of numbers statistically gives man a new influx of primitive intuition and magically subconscious awareness, whether of public taste or feeling: "You feel better satisfied when you use well-known brands."
[Understanding Media: The Extension of Man, Marshall McLuhan, 1964, Ch. 11: Number]
Nicely done, impressive message I agree with wholeheartedly. There is an exception @ 15:45, poetry may have some exceptions. If I am attempting to express a concept beyond mathematics or even logic like so many myth makers and poets do then I think there should be an open door to walk through and envision this abstract, nebulous world. These words attempt to bridge the gap of reason with some intuitive not yet understood potential. Perhaps it is too nebulous but I think it is a justifiable abstract a poet attempts to elucidate allowing words without borders and the inspiration they help foster. That is also part of our existential heritage.
Your Videos open my mind and connect our minds. Thank you!
My interpretation of freedom is Freedom from want, freedom from the lack of choices and Freedom from the imprisonment of mind. I follow the Buddha's path to Supreme Freedom! Yeah, I got reference!👍🏻
Neurodivergent here...hate conversations with most people, due to the ambiguity. I'm very precise with my words, even going out of the way to explain specifically what I mean by the use of a word in the middle of a sentence. People under me know exactly what's expected of them and never have to worry about something they've interpreted wrong biting them in the ass. People need to take responsibility for what comes out of their mouths.
Much of what’s spoken in philosophy is often in the unconscious mind of experiances that can only be described in words in the known
meditation helps with this as well. It allows you to be more aware of your experience without words
You might be interested in The economics of linguistic exchanges, by French sociologist Pierre Bourdieu. It’s complementary to this, as it explains why some words have more “value” recognition or legitimacy. And how these words brick by brick create structures unknowingly

Words can also be demystified if you see them as art. What are you looking at? What construction techniques are in play? It's great if you can see language as an equation, but that's not always possible.
Yes, empty words have no grounding. Simple words which relate to our earthly surroundings and to each moment, are the most nourishing. The old folk sayings, such as "time and tide wait for no man", and "many a slip 'twixt the cup and the lip" etc., contain truth without verbiage and contain psychological truths simply.
I'm surprised that this video doesn't bring in the work of Ferdinand de Saussure. Signs and symbols are key aspects of Post-Structuralism, to which this video is a delightful ode.
You should do a video on psychedelics and trips. If you already did one, my bad.
Or, you should go to the "Videos" page and use the search function to see whether the word "psychedelics" (and related words) are in any of the titles. That way, you don't have to 'my bad' anything -- you'll know, because you did the 'hard' work of searching and typing :) Cheers!

If brilliance was a star, you would be a universe.
"Classical (Pavlovian) conditioning can be done with earthworms, and operant (Skinnerian) conditioning can be conducted on rats and pigeons. But there is a third level of learning that pretty much only primates and humans are capable of, and that is what is called social learning.
This third level of learning, in its most powerful form, revolves primarily around the observation and imitation of a role model. Unlike operant conditioning, in social learning it is not essential that the learner be directly reinforced in order for learning to take place. What is important in social learning is to understand the characteristics that can lead to the selection of a specific individual as a role model.
The processes that make someone a desirable role model include:
• Vicarious reinforcement. You see the role model being reinforced in a manner that you can experience vicariously.
• Similarity to the learner. You perceive that the role model has a key trait that makes him/her similar to you.
• Social power. The role model has the power to reward (but does not necessarily do so).
• Status envy. You envy the role model's receipt of rewards from others."
[On Killing, Lt. Col. Dave Grossman, 2009, Chapter 4]
Agradeco seu video e informaçoes muito interessantes! realmente as palavras sao demasiadamente subjetivas e realmente ja percebi que as vezes falamos algo e outras pessoas interpretam de maneira totalmente diferente......esses miseraveis politicos da atualidade ou de sempre surfam nessa incongruência linguistica. abraços e obrigado
It's also interesting how thinking in numbers starts to become a practice in my life related to a more mature and realistic approach because I feel more grounded in reality.
Also, the rise of LLMs is to be taken into account. What is the function and intention of words? If they are not observed, they can throw us into a spiral of chaos, just like it happens in LLMs hallucinations.
Thank you for this!!!
Since it is also a form of communication, mathematics can also be manipulated, not in the methodology but in its ultimate interpretation where inevitably again words kick in. But it is harder to be manipulated than plain language.
Thank you, i will listen to more
Words are limiting, they arrive with otehrt meanings and conditions. I had this idea previously.
After living a fairly long life, I can explain what the importance of who owns the dictionary:
If you can control the words, you can control the narrative.
If you can control the narrative, you can control the politics.
If you can control the politics, you can control the People.
If you can control the People, you can control the world.

"Freedom," "justice," etc. are not just abstractions. They point to concepts that exist in reality. Concepts, like physical objects, are entities, though it is important to understand that they are "intentional" in the sense used by phenomenologist philosopher Franz Brentano: freedom is always the freedom of someone or some system; justice is always justice for a person or a group. In other words, they are not floating abstractions but always relate to some physical entity. You wouldn't know that a courtroom is bought and sold without first knowing what justice is. You wouldn't know that propaganda was being spread without first knowing the concept of truth. Heidegger made a distinction between WORD and LANGUAGE. WORD is that which attaches to a concept of an entity, physical or otherwise, while LANGUAGE is a labyrinth of semantics that cannot be trusted but must be carefully analyzed.
Numbers Can Lie. A recent video by a young lady really changed my perception of math. She simply said if 1+1 equals 2 .... Then why?, in demonstration does 1 drop of water added to 1 drop of water equals a larger drop. . There's more to it but anywhooo.
Supply and demand is law on all forms of energy. Language is an agreed upon algorithm of logic operations of comparison used to communicate. Some only see reality surface deep and barely that. Thus words are hard for them.
Also your inner health or state of being reflects your external reality. Just as explained here they say interstate well inner states as well
Ngl i had this insane dejavu. I feel like ive seen this vid title and thumbnail for a couple of years.
Number's can, also, lie, just like words. Read the book, How to Lie with Statistics, and learn Kurt Godel Incompletedness Theory, and you will realize mathematics is a player in the deception of humanity just as much as words; in fact, math is a language built on assumptions the same as words.
Well said
'Numbers' isn't equivalent to 'statistics'. I get your point, but your use of words suffers as outlined in this video. Where is the referent?
Math does not lie in sense that deduction is impregnable and you get to see basic statements a.k.a. axioms
@@RichardHarlos Without axioms, math does not "prove" anything, read Bertrand Russell's The Principles of Mathmatics, and axioms which operate as the foundation of mathematical "logic" are what, assumptions. What is statistics? Statistics: "Statistics is a branch of applied mathematics that involves the collection, description, analysis, and inference of conclusions from quantitative data."
Hence, statistics is a "branch of applied mathmatics," so my assumption has a foundation; however, your free to play sematical games ad infinitum, hopefully with someone else; however my comment stands as cited.
@@Carl-b1q wrote, _"your free to play semantical games..."_
You're projecting what you're doing onto me, and I can prove it.
You wrote: _"statistics is a "branch of applied mathmatics," so my assumption has a foundation;"_
First, I didn't say that you assumption didn't have a foundation. You're answering something I didn't say, which is to create a straw man... a fallacy... an error in reasoning.
So, to fix this, I suggest you look online for something like 'common fallacies' and learn how your thinking is incorrect so that you can remedy it.
Second, statistics is as defined. This makes it a tool. And tools can be used well or poorly. I can use a hammer to build a house, or to smash someone's windshield. People can use statistics well or poorly, and when used poorly, it may be a result of insufficient skill to use it properly, or a result of a deliberate will to misrepresent the truth, and to deceive those who read/hear that misrepresentation.
You're getting an education here. Whether you're intellectually honest enough to benefit from it remains to be seen.
I've come to experience that labels (which thanks to this video I now understand as all words pretty much are labels) seem to lock things in place so to speak.... When I'm able to stop myself from labeling everything it's as if much more information becomes available and the potential of everything and everyone stays open but w labels it's the opposite.... I hope that's understandable... It's hard for me to put into words....
Big.kudos, I'm working on a book. The kinda aligns with some of the perspective. You did good. I'm definitely going to look up the book. It's a deep rabbit hole. It's challenges every when you look beyond the hood of the car of life. Products of the mind.

Nerve system or nervous system? A nerve system has two settings: calm and nervous. A nervous system has only one setting - nervous. This is a clear example of word sorcery at it's most pernicious and explains a global population with nerves perpetually on edge, desperately seeking relief.

Excellent example !
"It is this ideological abrogation to the authority that constitutes the principal cognitive basis of obedience. If, after all, the world or the situation is as the authority defines it, a certain set of actions follows logically.
The relationship between authority and subject, therefore, cannot be viewed as one in which a coercive figure forces action from an unwilling subordinate. Because the subject accepts authority's definition of the situation, action follows willingly."
[Obedience To Authority, Stanley Milgram, 1973]
This is why agreed upon definitions are so important. "Working class" is not an abstraction if it has rubrics.
Relativism allows each person to create an entire world for themselves. The introduction of Relativism was necessary to destabilized society and increase control. Relativism is dependant on emotional reasoning...which is needed to manipulate people.
The larger the vocabulary, the more complexity the brain can see. Abstraction is necessary for progress, but standardized definitions are necessary for daily life communication, teamwork, and debate.

A laughingstock or a painful embarrassment. And man shall be just that for the overman: a laughingstock or a painful embarrassment. You have made your way from worm to man, and much in you is still worm. Once you were apes, and even now, too, man is more ape than any ape."
